As stated in our Licensing and Activation Policy, our products are licensed on a per computer basis. You can use the product on as many computers as you have activations available provided by the license(s) you purchased. This means, for example, if you have purchased 1 Personal/Single license that provides one activation, you can activate and use the product on 1 computer only.
Thus, if you have any available activations left, you can simply install and activate the product on another computer with the serial number you received in your order confirmation e-mail. If, on the other hand, you have already used all available activations, a warning will be displayed and activation will fail when you try to activate the product on a new computer, letting you know you are out of activations.
At this point, there are two possibilities for you: 1) you can get an additional license of the latest version for your newer computer / hard drive / OS at a discount; OR 2) you can transfer your activation from your old computer / hard drive / OS to a new one, provided that you purchased the original license less than 3 years ago or the new version of the product was not yet released. If you prefer option 1, please contact us to get you extra license discount and a direct order link. If you prefer option 2 instead, read on.
If your order was processed on or after June 1, 2011: additional activations may be granted provided you have available activation transfers that are provided by your license, as described in our Licensing and Activation Policy. If the original license that you purchased did not include any free activation transfers, before activation transfer can be made and a new activation be granted, you will need to pay the license transfer fee to obtain the activation transfer. Please contact us if you are not sure whether you have activation transfers available or need to obtain one. Once the activation transfer is obtained, you may deactivate the product on the old computer using this tool: http://download.binarymark.com/bmdl.exe and send the confirmation code to us, upon which we will provide you with activation so you can use the product again.
If your order was processed before June 1, 2011, and provided that the new version of the product was not yet released: before you can transfer the product to a new computer / hard drive / OS, you will need to deactivate it by following these steps: 1) download and save deactivation tool: http://download.binarymark.com/bmdl.exe; 2) run it with Administrative Rights; 3) deactivate the product; 4) send us the response code generated by the tool; 5) uninstall the product from your old computer / hard drive / OS. At the most, it only takes a few minutes to perform these steps. Once we receive the response code generated by the deactivation tool, we will grant you additional activation, so that you can transfer to and use the product on a new computer / hard drive / OS. Henceforth, whenever you need to transfer activation from your old computer / hard drive / OS to the new one, make sure you perform the same procedure again.
If your order was processed before June 1, 2011 and the new version of the product has been released: you will need to update to the latest version at a 50% discount.
