Is there a danger of reaching the maximum activation limit? I recently had this problem after switching to a new computer, even if there were free slots in the PM.

That’s right. But in addition to this there is a counter that tracks your total number of authorization processes. If this counter passes the limit you get an error message while authorizing. No matter if there are free slots for your product. This happened to me reacently, after switching to a new computer. As far as I remember there was a limit of 4 authorizations in total. After that you need to contact the Toontrack customer service, as in the error message adviced. They do reset this counter and you are able to do new authorizations.

What I’d like to know is, if this counter increases only while authorizing a new machine, or if it increases at every (re)authorization of an already known computer. This was not clear in Toontracks answer to my email. They told me they have deleted all unused activtations from my account and I can feel free to do more authorizations.

This is a great idea! There could be an option in the product manager. Customers could choose how many computers they want to use their software on. If you want to use 3 computers instead of 2, simply buy an additional seat. This would then be valid for all your registered Toontrack products.
