[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 710330, member: 56231"] The only ways I can see around this are to: 1. ask your friend for the serial number that was with his version and compare it with the number on the new software and 2. reinstall the 'borrowed' software, establish its serial number once installed (usually found in About This .......), and write down that number, then 3. delete the 'borrowed' software using a third-party uninstall application eg. CleanApp or AppCleaner, and 4. delete the new software using a third-party uninstall application eg. CleanApp or AppCleaner (or maybe it has its own uninstaller?) Then go through the reinsallation of your legally purchased software again. Very convoluted I realise, but getting rid of old serial numbers can be a tricky process, and they're deeply hidden in the OS libraries somewhere. [/QUOTE]
