i have 3dsMax 2014, want 2012 too

Isn't it possible to install max 2012 when you already have 2014? I need both for school cause 2014 isn't on every pc/in every classroom there. Is there a way to do this.. i did get a second student serial for 2012 but i can't install it.

It is possible to have 2 different versions on one PC. Only thing is you will need to Uninstall your 2014, Install 2012 and re-install 2014. If 2012 was allready on the PC it wouldnt have been a problem. But you basically need to install the earlier version first before installing the later version. 

 

Please let me know if this helps

I'm afraid i've tried that and the install button of 2012 is still grey if  2014 is removed 😞
i've read that people can have this problem is there are files or folders left after uninstalling, so i THINK i removed everything before i tried. everything i could find anyway. Thank you anyway for your reply 🙂

Did you clear out yout Temp Files? Go to Run > %Temp% > and delete everything in that file. Try the install again

 

Remeber 2012 first and then 2014
