I just installed BTP on a new computer by downloading another copy, requesting a new key, and re-registering. When I tried to use the version installed on the old computer I had to also re-register that copy with the new key.
I probably don't need a copy in each place, but it might prove conveinient, so I would prefer to keep both. If I try to do this will I have problems when I try to upgrade both copies to a new edition?

BTP v2.0.* Windows XP
Re: New Computer Install
When a new key is requested, the old one is deactivated. This means that both installs will have to use the same key when a new one is requested.slothrob wrote:I just installed BTP on a new computer by downloading another copy, requesting a new key, and re-registering.

I gather from this post that the developers do not mind if a single user has the software installed on multiple pcs?
I have a mac laptop but linux/windows desktops. i bought the mac btp because it will be most useful on the laptop but it would be great if i could also use it on my desktop. are the keys platform specific?

Multiple machines...
The EULA allows for BTP to be installed on another machine provided that BTP isnt used by other brewers. This is for convenience because many BTP users will take their laptop into the shop with them to brew...etc.lucas wrote:...are the keys platform specific?
The keys are platform specific. So this would require the computers involved to be running the same OS.
