Does the CD come with a license key, Or just an installer? CD says for Win/Mac, but I want to install on Win, and also unlock my Ubuntu trial version.

It came with a license key. I didn't know they had it available for linux yet. I would love to have it on my Ubuntu machine.

It came with both Windows and Mac installer discs. You can also download off the Internet.

It comes with two discs. One for Mac and one for Windows and I have installed both on my computers but beyond that I don't know.

came with window 7 pro pre-installed, and with a windows 8 disk - I assume there's a downgrade license from window 8 to windows 7 - not sure otherwise

The license is only for one PC. There is a deactivation process so that you can move the software to another PC. The process is described in the manual.

I think the "Dual Install" ability on Windows and Mac is a great feature. My first purch was the Photoshop Elements 2006, I have an HP Laptop and a MacBook Pro so I had to buy them separate and it gets costly to do this. So buying one with the installation available for both my machines is great. I never buy software from a "download" I buy actual hardware, I want physical material in hand to find if needed to reinstall or look up info.

Not quite sure what's preventing you from simply installing it as you did before. Unless you no longer have the requisite serial info or password to do so. I'm sorry I'm not very helpful. I can tell you that personally when I have had the need to install on a new computer and can't find either the disc or the info (which is almost always the case) I simply orflder a new one. The version I have isn't very costly and there are a number of places to find em. Good luck. Maybe you should ask a thirteen year old. I'm 50 and that's what I end up doing.

The program will be the same dl'd or delivered on disc. The registration key will work on both. Side note: There are so many many better free programs out there on the net. In fact, I thought they were giving burn express (might be different than Burning Rom) away for free on the site not to long ago.

It came with Windows installed, and also a generic disc. However, after about two months, I got a message that the Windows was not authentic. The disc would not re-install. I contacted tech support and they walked me through it remotely. It works fine now with "authenticated" Windows.

I believe you can just download the software BUT if something happens to your machine and you need to reload it on a new machine before the year is out, I think you'll be required to buy another license. I prefer to actually have the disc so I have options at a later date.

You Should Be Able To Download On Your New Computer With The Same License. I Think They Have A Customer Svc #. I Didnt Keep This Software I Got A refund

if you don't want to upgrade then you can do the double install. the first install chose a new install and do not enter the key. at the end of this you will be given 30 days to activate. run the disc again and this time chose upgrade and enter the license key. this is a work around issued by ms for people that could not upgrade such as having a 32 bit system and wanting a 64 bit new install

It is on the computer as a trial version (60 days). You need to purchase a "Product Key" from Microsoft or another vendor in order to activate the program.

I came here looking for a solution, thanks to these answers I found my product key printed on the installation disc itself. It was the only place I hadn't looked, as the disc was in my computer when I needed the key.
