    I'm having the same issue as others.
    I'm moving to a new MacBookPro-Touch and the licence will not activate.

    Code:
    Unable to confirm the product license.
    You have reached the maximum number of activations available for your activation key (http://www.parallels.com/eula). Please purchase a new product license.
    There are no firewalls and I have signed out of my old MacBook.
    (If I try and sign back in to my old MacBookPro, it works just fine)
    Please help
    Thanks

    I am now getting this as well after having to reinstall my OS after a fatal crash and HD replacement. I'm really shocked that this is the case with Parallels. I've been a customer of yours for years, but I'm now going to start looking at other alternatives. You need to resolve this issue so we do not have to come to a forum and beg for help. There should be a way to clear licenses and computers much like iTunes does, since people upgrade computers all the time.

    So if someone could please reach out to me and check my account I'd like my Parallels 10 license reset so I can use it please.

    Thanks!
    Jeff

    same problem.
    I received the following message in live chat.
    "Your activation key for Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac was reset and can be used for activating Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac in your new Mac."
    But still can't install for new Macbook.

    Hi, I'm having the same issue with doing a clean install of Parallels Desktop 11. I had to enter activation keys for both the 11 upgrade and the full version of Parallels Desktop 10, and got the "maximum limit" message. I'm trying to move from a macbook pro to an imac. Please advise. Thanks.

    I just tried to move PD 10 according to the instructions in your knowledge base article 116527. When I tried to activate on a new machine, I got the "Maximum Limit" message. Please reset so I can activate on my new machine.
    Thank You
