Joe-SA Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Is it possible to load VW2015 and begin using it on some projects while continuing to work in VW2014 for other 'in progress' projects from the same work station? I seem to remember the serial number only able to be associated with one or the other but not both. The reason is that I have a project that would really benefit from the added speed and memory use of VW2015 but I have other files that I need to collaborate on with VW2014 users without forcing them to upgrade as well. For the time being I need to jump back and forth. Joe Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted October 7, 2014 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 7, 2014 You can go back and forth, but not have both open at the same time. Serial numbers with the same last 6 characters will conflict with each other. Quote Link to comment
Joe-SA Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 Thanks, Jim. Does this include the 'activate serial number' process every time I switch from one to the other and I can go back and forth activating as many times as needed? Joe Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted October 7, 2014 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 7, 2014 It should not prompt you each time just by switching back and forth, but even if it did, they do not count as new activations if they are on the same computer. The activation server detects the same OS/hardware and approves activation without using up an additional one. Quote Link to comment
Joe-SA Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 Very good. That is what I needed. Thanks for the quick reply. Joe Quote Link to comment
