Hello,

I currently have Final Cut Express 4 installed on an iMac (27'' mid 2010). Next month I'm going to get a MacBook Pro 15" and would like to remove it from the iMac and put it on my MacBook Pro-hopefully without paying for another licence. Is that OK as long as it's not on more than one computer at once? I'd be removing it from the iMac, then installing it on the new Mac.

Would that work or are there complications?
 
you should be able to install fcp 4 on your new mbp without having to delete the one on your iMac. i think you can do that. 100% sure of it. i think the license agreement says that you can install it to 2 computers you own. one serving as a backup and/or mobile version.
 
OK thanks that makes things so much easier!:)
