    Hi,
    I moved to a new Mac and want to also move my license.
    When I start Parallels it says that the activation limit was reached (Parallels 17).
    Can you please instruct how to deactivate it on my old mac so I can use it on my new one? The KB article says I should contact support.
    Thanks.

    Says "This license has reached its activation limit and cant be activated anymore."
    But as my old mac is damaged, I had to buy a new one. So Im not using more than 1 license.
