I don't know what the license says but I follow what I consider to be fair use - multiple computers as long as I only ever use one at a time. The license may not allow this but it seems to me to be fair.

I'm not aware of any licensing issues - it's provided free of charge.

Yes you can run it on multiple computers - if you do it completely standalone, just remember to "receive all" when you connect to get whatever changes may have been made from the other computer, or follow the instructions for putting the database in a location accessible to both computers so they share the same info.

I run it on 3 computers and I just repoint all three to the same DB on a network share.

Same Here. Works well. Just have to make sure that your networked drive is connected first before launching the app.

Thank you all for the help. I don't think I will use a networked drive. I will just get in the habit to download from the M1 as soon as I connect to the panel first.

I synchronize the DB's from 3 laptops to a server as well as a desktop PC that has a 56K modem with no foul, as long as you keep the security settings/locks, no issues.

Another method I use for these things is to keep all the installation programs on a single computer that can be remote desktop'd into... especially for UPB - I can walk around on wireless w/my Mac and remote into a PC that's connected to a PIM.
