moving eyeTV to iMac from Mac Mini

Gaz · Dec 27, 2007

I've got a Miglia Mini with eyeTV, i want to put my eyeTV on my iMac, i have my serial code, but i've lost my CD, and im unsure of what version my serial code is for. Now it doesn't work or any current ones, and if i install the one im currently using on my mac mini on my iMac my serial code doesn't work.

is there anyway i can move the working app from the mac mini to the iMac?

This will show you which version you are currently using.

Open EyeTV on your mini, click on 'EyeTV' on the menu bar, select 'About EyeTV' from the drop down menu.

That tells me the version i updated to. updates are free if your current serial works, which only works with the version you got when you bought it. so my current version isn't the one for my serial.

Have you tried copying the EyeTv application from one to the other, then plugging the Tvmini to the computer?

I have EyeTv and the miglia mini, so does my girlfriend. Never had to do what you want to do though. Shame you lost the CD!!

Tried that several times, to no effect. i might have the CD down at my other place, but not going there for a week. will just have to wait it out.

Other than doing a spotlight search for EyeTv and chucking all the relevant findings in the respective folders of the other machine, I think either find the CD, or contact Miglia. EyeTv is obviously part of a package which includes EyeTv so they might chuck you a replacement. Good luck!!

eyeTV isn't part of the package anymore, so they won't.
