I'm not really in a position or qualified to comment on this legally. Transferring a license will often incur a fee. But there is the transfer utility that Stephen mentioned in an earlier post.

Graham in your experience would this work from a Legal standpoint ? im assuming i could transfer the licence back onto my laptop after i finish ?

The old days where nice, a physical dongle providing prove, control and means of actually bringing your license to where you needed it. It was easy to forget or snap the USB one, too :-) Cheers, tim On 10.01.2013 12:38, Stephan Haidacher wrote: maybe he could lease this workstation from the company then? ;) he could simply pay 10 bucks a month for it.. with a proper invoice what could AD do?

I'm not a lawyer, but I understand that clause as meaning that you personally have to own, lease, or control the computer where you install Softimage.

Assuming you purchased your license in the EU, then you can use it anywhere in that territory. However, Section 2.1.1 does say ...no license is granted (whether expressly, by implication or otherwise) under this Agreement...for Installation of the Licensed Materials on any Computer other than a Computer owned or leased, and controlled by Licensee, unless otherwise authorized in writing by Autodesk...

The place uses maya, but i was told that if i was able to provide my own license that this should not be a problem. however there seems to be a schism in the company. and the higher up IT peoples stance is: they require confirmation from Autodesk that i can use my my license in the this company. My question is this, has anyone ever brought their softimage to work for a company ? if so how did this come about...\ or Alternatively, what would autodesks stance be on this, as the issue seems to hinge on the leagle ramification of package controls. I love this package, i bought it, even in these uneasy questionable times, and i love this community, please guys, Help me ! No virus found in this message.
