Viewing from 2 machines?

[DavidJ]

Good afternoon!

I'm an individual investor running v. 10.3 (personal) at home.

I usually run and view FM on my desktop machine, where both the program and all of the data files live, but I would sometimes like to be able to view a more-or-less current portfolio from a netbook in another room.

It looks to me like the safest and most convenient way to do this would be to periodically copy the data files from my desktop to my netbook, install a second copy of the program on the netbook, and view the local copy of my portfolio locally from there.

My first question is:
I only own one license. Is this permitted? (I am the only one who ever uses either of the two machines.)

Thanks.
David.

Hi David,

Yes, this is permitted. You can use your license key on up to 3 computers as long as you are the only one using all 3.

You can either copy all the *.dat an *.mm4 files, or you can do a "File / Backup...", copy that *.fmb file, and do a "File / Restore...". Either way will work.

Thanks!

David.
