Does the software that comes with it back up more than one computer?

Yes it's justs plug and play and it's recognized by any OS. I use windows backup with no problems.The drive itself is amazingly fast! I'd say it has cut hours a week in productivity.

It is a plug and play. I just create a folder for each machine I want to back up

it is set up to operate on a number of computers, if needed a disk to download the software comes with it

No it does not, however you are encouraged to generate a backup disk after placing your new computer into service. It would be nice if the seller or manufacturer provided a software repair disc. They did years ago.

Back up devices / programs do not back up software if you are referring to programs like Word or Photoshop, etc. or any other .exe files. They back up your Word files for example but you will need the Word program to open the files. If, for example, you have all your financial information saved in Quicken, backup software and devices will copy it but you will need Quicken to read them. I hope this helps. The Clickfree drives are terrific and you don't have to learn new software to use them...just plug it in, tell it what you want it to back up, and go for coffee.

As far as I know you can install the software on two home computers (for example a desktop and a laptop).

All depends on your setting. If you set it to do continuous backup, t will back up everytime there is a change. You can set thethe programm to back up every time you shut down the computer or once a day at a specific time.

I am not sure about the back-up drive. But I love the expansion drive, it does exactly what I want it to do. I am a film maker, photographer and digital artist, my files are often quite large, especially the high-def films. I use it to store my files on it. It did not have any extra software with it or attached to it. I hope that helps answer your question.

Yes - but only one at a time. The copy protection comes from the Interlink connection via USB. I've got it installed on (2) different machines.

Yes... I am on 7. I just use it to save critical files on. Don't fully understand the "back-up" software that is supplied with it.

Don't totally remember but, I think you get code to activate it and I am not sure if you can put it on more than one computer. Sorry not really a help.

I usually back up full os, but i'm almost positive you can back up individual files. My only gripe with this software is I already owned an older copy and had to purchase a new copy for windows 7!

As far as I know, you do not have a limit. You will however have to register the software with each install. I have it on two pcs myself. I hope this works.

Define more than one? Downloading it on one computer then undownloading it and installing it on a different computer?

Mine came with the backup software already on the drive. It is part of the setup.

You can only install the software on one computer. if you have another computer, you'll have to purchase another copy

Sorry about that ! You could run install but it will only register on one computer. They nail you over $200.0 for a two computer software.

Yes, that's pretty much how I was seeing it... the only problem is that one day the SmartWare backup software screwed up when I logged in, and everything I had been backing up had vanished. I reformatted the drive, deleted SmartWare from my computer, and am now manually backing up at the end of the day, as I was before. I loved the instant backup function of the software, but I can't trust it now.
