    Hello!

    I have upgraded all of my network licenses to Acad 2005. In the process, I've aquired one 'additional' license. I have 14 ACAD 2004 licenses but only authorized 13 for some reason. Anyhoo, I consolidated all of my 14 licenses into one Acad 2005 subscription license.

    The Acad administrator doesn't have any plans to move to 2005 for some time but I need to be able to use the 'extra' license for my 2004 users. Can I remove the Acad 2004 licenses, install the 14 Acad 2005 licenses and still run Acad 2004 on my clients? Of course we'll be moving to Acad 2005 within a few months but I really need that "extra" license.

    Will the Acad 2005 license server allow me to use Acad2004 licenses?

    Brian

    You might be able to authorize 1 more 2004 license.

    Yes...you should be able to call Autodesk and request an updated license file for you 2004 products. I did exactally that when we added an extra license for Raster Design.
