[QUOTE="IvanLasston, post: 1401970, member: 145676"] I had office 2011 from Microsoft and didn't have to re-install. I did have to re-authenticate but the copied over Office worked. Depending on the license scheme of software you may have to do this for other apps. Last time I dealt with Adobe - I think I had to de-authorize one computer before doing the restore. I believe the same is true for iTunes - you should de-authorize the original computer if you aren't going to be using it anymore. My favorite comment from my wife was - she didn't have to do anything when she got her new computer. She was actually kind of bummed that she didn't have to do "that new computer setup that you do with windows when you get a new one." [/QUOTE]
