REV Versions

Post by lohill » Sun Jan 17, 2010 8:57 pm

I just succumbed and ordered the Mega Bundle. I have received a ton of license keys and URLS but have not loaded much yet. At the end of November I learned of the existence of REV and loaded REV Media to my Mac. In the middle of December I ordered REV Studio and have been spending a lot of time with it since then. Now that I have the Bundle and I assume two legal accesses to REV, I have some questions. The first is what are the major differences between Studio and Enterprise? I don't think having all three versions on my Mac is what I want or need. Depending on the answer to my first question I probably will install Enterprise on my main machine (Mac). But I also have XP in VM Fusion and I have Windows 7 on a laptop. If I take Studio off my Mac can I download Windows versions and use my same key to install there? These are all my machines so I assume there would be no license violations.

Is there anything I need to know about uninstalling Studio and Media so as not to contaminate the loading of Enterprise?

Thanks for any help you can give,
Larry

For a quick comparison of the editions you can check here. http://www.runrev.com/products/the-rev- ... omparison/

As far as your questions, yes you can install rev enterprise on your windows VM, or a linux VM for that matter too, as well as on your laptop, using the enterprise key. As for removing studio, rev installs into its own location and can co-exist nicely. I currently have rev studio 3, 3.5, rev media 4 and the most recent enterprise of course.

The only issue i've seen is sometimes getting things switched around so that the version you want as default actually IS can be a pain.

sturgis,

Is that an AND or an OR for

I can actually use Enterprise in three places as long as they are on my machines?

As long as you're the one using it, and not all your family and the whole department... yes.
