Norton 360 is the comprehensive computer security suite from Symantec. It enables you to obtain computer security, identity protection, computer backups, network monitoring, and computer tune-ups in one software package. The 2010 version of the Norton computer security programs were a huge improvement over past versions of Norton in that they run when your computer is idle in order to minimize the impact on your computer’s performance. When you purchase Norton 360 or other Norton products, you are entitled to load them on three non-commercial computers in-total at no charge. In order to do so, you must install the other copies of the software within 60 days to avoid a fee.
Steps to Install Norton 360 on Multiple Computers
Step 1 – Navigate to your Symatec Store Order status webpage on the computer that you desire to load the second or third copy of Norton 360. This will be the order page in the Norton account that you created when purchasing the software on-line or registering your product if buying from a store in a box.
Step 2 – Log-in to your Symantec account by entering either your loging ID and password or your order number and password. If you have forgotten your log-in ID, it is normally the email address that you used to register or purchase the product.
Step 3 – Choose the Norton product order from the menu that appears on the Symantec web page that corresponds to your purchase of Norton 360.
Step 4 – Now it’s time to download Norton 360 to the new computer. Choose the “Start Download” menu option to begin downloading to the computer. Don’t forget that if its been more than 60 days, you’ll have to pay another fee (less than buying a new license) to extend your “right” to download the product past 60 days of the purchase date.
Step 5 – After the download has completed, proceed with installing Norton 360 on the new computer. After you have installed the product three times you will need to purchase a new seat for Norton 360 for the 4th and subsequent computers.
Some warnings for the casual user:
- Your multiple installs of Norton products will not extend across computers of differing Operating Systems. I.e, if you run a Windows machine and your wife has a MAC, you can not install the same Norton product on both computers.
- Buy your Norton product from authorized re-sellers. If you buy the product from a 3rd party, you may not have rights to install Norton 360 or other Symantec products on multiple computers
