Just upgraded to FP2003. Uninstalled FP2000 and installed
FP2003 on PC at Home. Also Installed On PC at work. I
understand that you can install on 2 PC's re: end user
aggrement. Well all seemed ok untill i installed on a 3rd
PC at work which i use for marketing. Now Fp2003 works
fine on the 1st PC but i can't import or open my remote
site on the 2nd or 3rd PC. All 3 installations activated
ok without any problem.
My question is: Does MS somehow block out the activation
on the last 2 PC's. And if i uninstall 1 PC will the 2nd
installation work? Will Uninstalll ask to delete the
activation?
Thanks in advance to anyone who might know.
 
Under the Eula, you are authorized to install on one pc and one laptop. If
you do any more, you will have problems.

If you were able to install on 3 machines, then there is a bug if this is a retail version.

MS has no way of checking your machine, only the number of time that specific copy has been
activated on different hardware.

Uninstalling will not change the number of activations already recorded for different hardware.

However, installing over the limit will/may cause the program to quit
functioning.

I had that happen on other MS software due to drive crashing I had to install software on what it thought was more than allowed machines...all I had to do is call MS and they were able to help.
