Wow, awesome blog.
I really Appreciate you sharing, Amazing article post ever!
So Creative, please continue. Thankyou

I subscribed to Parallels and immediately asked for a refund when I saw that the subscription is only valid for a single computer. This goes directly against a subscription based model. I won't subscribe again until I can get multi-installs license. Jetbrains, Microsoft etc all allow it. This makes no sense, people have a desktop and laptop computer, in 2023 making them pay 2 subscriptions is stealing from them.

 

Hello, please DM us with your payment reference number or the Parallels Desktop for Mac license key so that we can initiate the refund. Thanks.

 

My refund is complete. Thanks.

 

Thank you. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

 

Hello, wanna activate my license on new Mac but can't access my old Mac do disconnect license there. I get the following message after: "License is used on another MAC ... ", then I click "activate on this MAC". -> Message: "The process cannot be executed: the license Key is associated to another account. Please log in with that account and try again". But I don't have another account. Pls help, thanks

 

Hello, we have sent you a personal message. Please provide us with the Parallels Desktop license key so that we can check this further. Thanks.

 

Good day and thanks for your feedback!
I could not wait and decided to get refund for my old license extension, and since that was granted I
Purchased a new license

So you can close this request.

Very best regards,

 

Thank you. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

 

You can install your license on two computers, Mac or Windows, but those computers cannot run simultaneously.

 

Totally agree with author

 

I would like to use more than 4 CPU/8GB in Standard version as it was possible in all previous versions up to Parallel Desktop 10. Please vote if you like it too.

 

Thank you for letting us know about this feature. It's a great idea to consider.

 

Just want to chime in here. Was a Parallels user beginning with the very first Intel iMac. Later switched to VMWare Fusion as I found it to be more stable, even if providing fewer features. With the latest announcement from Microsoft re: official support for Windows ARM on Fusion, and given the state of same on Fusion, I was all ready to switch back to Parallels. Was all ready to check out and almost pushed the button but then noticed the "one computer" limitation. Nope. I'm happy with a license tied to a person and a limitation of devices that can be activated (so long as at least two), but a machine license won't cut it. As a user with a desktop and a laptop used at different times and different purposes, I need a license scheme that will allow me multiple machine activations. Adobe can manage it and Tower can manage it (big and small companies) so surely Alludo (or Parallels or Corel or whoever you are now) can. Until then, a lost sale.

 

Sorry to jump in, if this is the wrong place/time.
I have a 2019 macbook that was my first mac. Because I wasn't sure I'd like using MacOS, I bought parallels and ran Windows 10 when necessary (intel mac). Over time, I didn't have to do that hardly ever, and it became that I only used parallels a couple times a year. But, I do value the ABILITY to run windows if I ever have a task necessary. The first couple years I upgraded and renewed, and then I think I stopped around Parallels 15 or 17 since it's a permanent license. Unfortunately, I accidentally let it upgrade to parallels 18 and now that license is no longer valid.

Flash forward to 2023 and I bought a new M2 macbook (still keeping my old one too). I wanted the ABILITY to run windows, and also was curious what Windows 11 looked like, so I bought a permanent license for that macbook. Turns out I think windows 11 is trash, so I hope to never use it. But, I do like Fedora linux so maybe that will be handy from time to time.

Anyway, as I understand the licensing, you need 1 per computer. Considering that I probably won't run any of these even once in a normal month, buying 2 licenses is out of the question. I may only run it 5 times a year, if that. But, somewhere back in this thread way back was a link that is no longer valid about getting a discounted license in a 2-pack. I actually would pay a little to have a 2nd permanent license if that is an option, but I can't find that option. I also saw it mentioned more recently that you just can't RUN the 2 parallels instances at the same time. THAT is easy to comply with. If I can use the same license key but never use it simultaneously on my 2 macbooks, that would be an ideal situation. Is that true that I can do this without violating licensing? If so, I'll do that.

I should say that I am a very heavy virtualbox user, on my linux systems, and that is my favorite (and free) virtualization app, and if it comes to it, I'll run their beta M1 compatible version on the macbook. But, I do find that parallels runs better on Mac systems. So I'm trying to find a good way to give myself the option to have 2 useable systems without tons of cost. What is my best option?

 

I'm in the same boat here. I get not being able to RUN it on multiple computers at the same time, but I can't even activate it on two computers at the same time. This is ridiculous considering that it's a subscription. I mean I guess I can switch which one is activated at any given time since I'll mostly be using it on one computer, but it's still a stupid limitation.

 

I may have to use Windows as a guest OS on my MacBook. I already have a Parallels licence and am running a Windows guest OS on my Mac Studio. So help me here understanding this: in order to get a guest Windows 11 installation on my laptop, will I need to buy an additional licence from Parallels for the laptop?

 

Hello ,
would like to inquire on your 2-license-rebate,
is this policy still active?
Can one get a discount for a perpetual licenses to use on 2 Macs_?
