    Hello Parallels Support Team,

    I moved from my old Mac to a new Mac and would like to continue using my existing Parallels Desktop 16 license on the new Mac.

    When I try to activate Parallels Desktop 16, I receive the following message:

    "This license has reached its activation limit and can no longer be used to activate new product copies."

    I have already signed out of Parallels on the old Mac. I am not trying to use the license on multiple Macs at the same time; this is only a migration to a replacement Mac.

    Could you please reset the activation limit for my Parallels Desktop 16 license so I can activate it on the new Mac?

    Reference number: 274445585

    I can provide the license key via private message if required.

    Thank you,
    Philipp Schuberth
