Guest knoxville255 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I was just wondering if I'd be able to share my copy of Rosetta Stone with my friend. Would he be able to use it without a hitch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pammy Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 If he were in your household, then it would be fine. HTH>:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest knoxville255 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Well how would they know if I just let my wife use it upstairs and not my friend? Do they track it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anabelneri Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 We're using a copy bought through our charter school and used by another student before it was passed to us. I haven't had any trouble with it at all. It's a standard homeschool edition. We have a local used bookstore that sells old software. I bought an old Rosetta Stone product from them once, and recently bought an old version of Adobe Creative Suite. There must be some sort of way to legally sell used products -- this is a major used bookstore and Adobe's headquarters is nearby, so if it were illegal it would have been stopped by now (they've had used Adobe products on their shelves for the past 8 years). But I'd definitely be careful, and only use a product that I knew I had the rights to. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbollin Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Well how would they know if I just let my wife use it upstairs and not my friend? Do they track it? That's a completely different question from "sharing" software :) Sharing software usually has different connotations. ;) If someone comes to your house and uses it on your computer, that's not the same issue at all. That is permitted. There is some tracking of progress per user and you can only create 5 users per license. and welcome along to the forum, by the way :) -crystal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 We're using a copy bought through our charter school and used by another student before it was passed to us. I haven't had any trouble with it at all. It's a standard homeschool edition. I think that Level 2 didn't have the same issues/license agreement as Level 3 (current version). The license does state that resale is not permitted. They also only allow installation twice (I think). I'm not sure you could have it on multiple computers at the same house even....

Matryoshka Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 They also only allow installation twice (I think). I'm not sure you could have it on multiple computers at the same house even.... They told me you could install it on two computers (for example if you have multiple kids using it in your household and want to grant them access at the same time). Their intent is of course that the two computers be in the same household. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
