I just bought a second computer. They are networked. I have a paid version of Eudora on the original Computer. I'm trying to access it from the new computer. I've assigned "share" to the Quaalcom folder, but that doesn't work. I tried sharing the Eudora shortcut...that doesn't work either. Is there a way to do this? Or must I download and install another Eudora on new puter? If I do this, can I use my registraion info from my first computer? Thank you.
 
Hi,

The easiest way to do this is to copy the eudora data out of the qualcomm directory to a separate folder, then change the shortcut on the first computer to point to the data.
Thus to put it in C:\Email it would be the following:

"C:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora Mail\Eudora.exe" C:\Email

You can then install Eudora on the other PC and point it to this directory in the same manner.
However, I assume that your eudora license only covers one PC (I would check the wording to find this out) - and if so you can either run it in sponsored or light mode at no extra cost, but should buy a new full license if you want to do this.
