AutoCAD Student version - cross platfrorm

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have 2 laptops, one for home and one that I carry to places, school... 

 

Can I use my  MAC autocad student liscence  and transfer it on a PC platform without having to uninstal the whole software from my MAC or is there a way to use the liscence from the CLOUD on my PC ?

I do know that I can only use my liscence on 2 laptop.

AutoCAD and AutoCAD For MAC are considered two separate products under student license guidelines.  So you would have to request AutoCAD https://www.autodesk.com/education/free-software/autocadfor your PC..   It would not have any impact on your AutoCAD for MAC license and you don't need to uninstall it..  Also remember AutoCAD and AutoCAD For MAC don't work the same..  There are things that AutoCAD can do that AutoCAD for MAC can't do and visa-versa  One more thing..  AutoCAD for MAC only goes to version 2018, where as AutoCAD is at 2019
