Does anyone know how many computers you can put Vegas Pro 14 on? I have a heavy field laptop which is a bit of pain to carry on planes and a tower setup for my main editing at home with both having Vegas Pro 14 on them. I pick up a cheap laptop which is light to carry and easier to take to China with to view daily's for the next film shoot but as I was trying to download Vegas Pro 14 on it, it wouldn't let me. I was only able to do the Trial version. Any feedback?
 
It only 2 with Vegas Pro 14. So if I upgrade to Vegas Pro 15 do I still keep my 14? If so I can upload 15 onto my light computer and the other one to my stand alone desktop.
 
You can have multiple versions on a laptop. I'm running Vegas Pro 8, 13, 15 on my main laptop. I have been able to run the Sony versions on three machines at a time. I haven't tried to put Magix Vegas Pro 15 on more than 1 yet, so I can't say for sure about that.
 
Make sure your laptop has a goodly amount of RAM for Vegas 15. It's the most RAM-hungry version of Vegas yet, by quite a bit.
 
I'm running Vegas 15 on my puny pathetic PC without needing extra RAM, but then again I'm not doing anything fancy with my basic edits.

How many computers can I use VEGAS Pro on?
You can use VEGAS Pro (14.0 and later) simultaneously on 2 devices. To deactivate a device so you can activate a different one, go to your MAGIX account > My Products > Show More Details > Deactivate. Older versions of Vegas Pro are licensed under a system (as previously used by Sony) which permits use on multiple computers by one user; after an unspecified number of installations on different or updated PCs you may need to contact support to reset your "installation count".
