BertS Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Does anyone have any thoughts on the best way to have a Pro License of Spotlight and an Educational License of Designer co-exist on the same machine? I've already tried just adding the educational serial number to my existing copy. "Only one serial number allowed" it responds... I'd like to avoid installing the program twice (and not sure that's a good idea, or even possible.) (Before you ask - I only need Spotlight for my professional work and generally stick to it for classes as well, but I have grad students this semester asking me about things in Architect and Landmark and would like to be able to help them.)

rDesign Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) If you’re on MacOS, perhaps it might work if you created a second OS User Account, log-in to that new User account and input your Educational S/N for Designer. (Keeping your Pro Spotlight S/N on the first OS User Account). No idea if this would work, but just a thought. Edited August 29, 2020 by rDesign Quote Link to comment
BertS Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 Yes! That works, and it also makes me realize I can clean up a lot of other stuff with a separate "school" account now that I'm mostly working from home this semester. Wish I had thought of that a long time ago. Thank you! 2 Quote Link to comment
