I just got my Mbox 3 and protools 8 LE in the mail. I have not started recording yet, I'm just trying to acumulate the gear I need. I will be getting a mac for recording but don't have it yet. I'm anxious to try it out and make sure everything works properly. So my question is, if I install Pro Tools on my PC now, will I have trouble registering it and installing it later on my other computer? Like can the registration code be used on more than one computer? I will uninstall it from my PC once I get my Mac, I just don't want to have any problems.
thanks!
 
AFAIK if it's 8 it will only work with an M audio interface, so you can install it on multiple systems you have to plug the m-box in to use it.
 
You can install it on as many machines as you want because it requires the hardware to run.
 
An upgrade to PT9 (about $250-350 depending upon what you have now) will allow you to use PT on any machine as long as it's compatible and you have an ilok with the registration codes. It no longer has to see Digi gear and leaves you free to mix etc. wherever you want...

The only answer you need is this.

No, you wont have any problems.

Install it on your pc, use it for a while, install it on your mac when you get it.
