For the Notation Musician and Notation Composer Full Versions, Notation Software grants you a license to use the Software for as long as you want to use the Software. The installation of the Software is limited to one single computer at a time. Computer also stands for a single virtual machine. Any virtual machine requires a separate license.

In case the Software needs to be installed on another computer than the original computer, you can port your personal license to a new computer for free by touching base with Notation Software. You will need to send your name and full address which you used when purchasing the license, the license number, the log file of the setup program and the log file of the Software itself. In addition it is required to precisely describe the reason why you want to port the Software to another PC. You should send this request from your email address which you used when purchasing the product. Notation Software has prepared a form for that on its website (SUPPORT/Software Updates). Both log files are created by the Software automatically and stored on your computer.

Notation Software will validate your request as soon as possible and reactive the license for the new PC accordingly.
