#How do i find blue iris license key software

Microsoft has their own model limiting to 3 installs I believe and you can do a phone 'honor system' to reset that count. While the OP did have a justifiable case, most people aren't going to hop around to 10 systems (or have 10 systems available to test anyway). I would be willing to bet that is rarely approached by anyone so this does help weed out the nefarious use. They give the ability to transfer the license and have a pretty high threshold at 10. as long as they continue to be responsive in reasonable situations.

In summary, a user shouldn't need permission to legally move and use the software to any machine they like, and the incidence of unauthorized use has to be extremely low compared to those who have legitimate reasons to move the installation. People who have 'skillz' at hacking/cracking and like won't be stopped. I ran a company that sold a software product and learned that at some point, efforts to prevent unauthorized use demonstrates a mistrust of customers and becomes throwing the baby out with the bathwater. If he didn't have to give a reason for why he was doing what he was doing, why does he need their permission? Is it the presumption that it's an 'audit' mechanism to prevent nefarious use? The OP clearly needed their permission to continue testing machines or moving the installation from one machine to another for whatever personal/professional reasons, and received it. They abandoned that practice when they went to cloud subscriptions like MSft. Photoshop employed a practice like this when they came out with their Creative Suite 2 products and that made the license a machine license, not a user license. But I respectfully object to requiring their permission for a user to put it on whatever machine they see fit ad infinitum. Why should a user have to get their okay?įunctionally, it doesn't affect me and likely doesn't affect most licensees. What they are doing is preventing a user from putting it on any machine they choose after an imposed limit (10) unless they say it's okay. Since, they allow you to move the license to new hardware up to 10 times and already implement safeguards against the same key being used on two machines at one time, it's not a theft or license violation prevention issue. They already prevent BI from running on multiple machines at the same time with the same license key. Annoying but surmountable.Ĭan't say I agree with that. It's been fairly normal with my home automation software(s) too. It must have happened so they protect against it. I think it is to stop somebody attempting to use the same key on multiple pc's at the same time.
