I am having the same issue, moved to new Mac and can't activate Parallels - Failed to activate the license: Unable to confirm the product license. You have reached the maximum number of activation's available for your activation key. Please purchase a new product license.

 

Hi, we've reset your key, please try to activate again.

 

Same issue here. Tried installing on the new Mac and it gives the same error message. Could you please reset the license. Thanks

 

Hi, your key has been reset, please check.

 

Thanks. However, I am now not able to connect the VM to the network. I got the following message instructing that I should enable Network from Preferences, but there is no such option under Preferences. Could you please advise. Thanks.

 

Hi, please try to right click on Parallels Desktop icon in Dock, choose preferences and then Network -> and click "Restore defaults"

 

Hello,

I am hitting the same message after a clean install. I haven't used Parallels for a long time however, I would like to do so now. Could you please reset my license key as well. It's for Parallels 10.

regards,
DAn

I am having the exactly the same issue. I just transferred everything from my old mac to new mac using Mac's default migration tool. Everything works just fine EXCEPT Parallels 14. I tried everything... logout from old computer, uninstall parallels from old computer completely, removing the license.xml file using terminal, etc.. etc.. nothing works. I keep getting:

This license has reached its activation limit and can no longer be used to activate new product copies.
​

(the old license is still working on my old mac if i try to activate it).. Currently i am using a trial license on my new computer, and hoping the find a solution... Can somebody reset my serial key so i can re-enter it on my new mac?

 

We are unable to find any activation keys with the email address. Please reply to the private message with the activation key to check and assist.

 

Hello Parallels, I just upgraded my computer and I'm getting the same message. Tried your steps below, but that did not work for me. Can you please do your magic so that I can activate Parallels on my new Mac? Thanks, Chaz
