Two Mac Machines, One Parallels Key

[BenjaminW4]

Dear Sir,
I have two Mac machines, one is iMac in my office and the other is Macbook pro for daily use. And I can run the Parallels 10 on these two machines using ONE key, but I do not know how to do after upgrading Parallels 11. Because it seems that I need to buy another key to install Parallels on my Macbook pro. Please help me to solve this problem. Thanks

Hello Benjamin,
You can not have one Parallels Desktop license activated simultaneously on two computers, however please refer to this article and move your license from one computer to the other.

Can you move the license daily? i.e.: In the morning, activate my MBP, then at night when I get home to my desktop, activate it on my iMac? Then repeat each day? I'm in a opposite situation as above user, however, if I need to purchase two licenses just to use this one at a time on my two machines, I'll be going back to VMWare next release update. Really wish you wouldn't have changed this. I've been a Parallels user since version 2 or 3.

Hello AnthonyC1,

If you wish to switch and use Parallels Desktop on two Mac's but one at a time. Yes, you can please refer this article. You have to sign out from Parallels Desktop on one Mac and then sign in to Parallels Desktop on another Mac.

Thanks,
