    We have reset the activation key. Please follow the instructions below:
    1. Quit Parallels Desktop, then try to activate after launching it again.
    2. If you are still unable to activate, Open Terminal on the Mac and execute this command: prlsrvctl activate-license-online

    Note: Parallels Desktop 10 is not compatible with Sierra or newer macOS X versions.

    I used parallels desktop 11 in my old Mac. I have already sign out from my old Mac but I still faced the same problem "You have reached the maximum number of activations available for your activation key (http://www.parallels.com/eula). Please purchase a new product license."

    Could you please help me to activate the program?

    I too have reached the maximum number of activations, but I no longer have the previous Macbook that it was installed on. I have a valid activation key, but cannot remove the older macbook.
    Thank you

    Hi and thank you Maria. I might be doing it too fast and there could be a delay, but I am getting the same message. Is there any additional information I can provide to support your efforts? Thanks again

    I'm having the same issue. Contacted support via email and they said that they reset my license and it should work. Tested and I still get the "too many activations" messages. Support then told me to "sign out of Parallels Desktop"

    I don't see a way to sign out. I just get the window where I should enter the key. I've tried uninstalling PD and rebooting my Mac. Nothing is working.

    I am having the same issue where my Parallels is giving me the max number of licenses and I just had to get a replacement laptop and just moved my drive to the new computer. Help?

    Still having the same issue. I used my software in Jan 15 2020 of this year on this MAC 10.13.6 OS High Sierra with no issue and now that I have replaced my laptop with a new motherboard, the software has stopped working. I included a screen grab from this morning when I tried to launch and as you can see I have removed the majority of my serial. So, I am at a loss to understand why this is still happening. Unfortunately, being disabled and in the current issue of limited employment earning I do not have even the $50 to upgrade or expend for a new version.
    Please Help?
    Kim
