Can I move my Nik Collection 5 to a Mac from my PC?

I have Nik Collection 5 installed on my PC and using it with Lightroom and Photoshop. I am going to move to a Mac in the new year.

Can I install Nik Collection 5 on my Mac using my current licence?

Hi and welcome here,

as this is a USER forum, please contact DxO support.

yes, login to your account on dxo website and download the mac version that should be on your account. go on your software list and scroll to nik collection, then you have two option for download, windows and mac.

Please note that the number of activations is limited.
Activating Nik on your new Mac will consume one of your activations.

According to what someone from DxO support has answered to one of my tickets lately, uninstalling should “give back” one activation. They have not yet written, what exactly must be done to get a liberated activation…and I have not yet seen this to a) work at all nor b) work reliably.

Unless you need both computers active for using Nik, I propose that you uninstall Nik with the provided uninstaller. You can then at least prove to DxO that you have done what they propose to uninstall the apps.

Note that other apps might want to be deactivated too.
