Hi,
I was just wondering if the licence for FC6 is the same as FC5 as in can you still install on 2 PC's as long as you only use 1 at a time ?
only I am trying to install on my laptop after my tower and I cannot activate it .....
cheers

Hi Stuart
Ive got FC6 installed on both tower and laptop.
You can only run it on one system at a time though.

Hi John,
When I click on activate it asks for Matrix account name and password, when I put this in and click on activate it comes back with a failed message box, if I try to activate manually it ask where the licence file is ?, where do I get the licence file from ?
cheers

Re: FC6 on 2 pc's
I have noticed with my system, if I close FC on on system, and try to run it on the other straight away, it says I have to many copies open.
I looks like once its closed it takes a few seconds for the fact to get across the network.
My thoughts are it must have some sort of a lock on the IP address, which has to be cleared before you can open it on another system.
