Why can’t I use two devices running the desktop app on the same network?

In my case, I am the only one who uses Reunion, however, sometimes I do get tired using my laptop (as the screen is very small) and my Mini Mac has a larger Screen so I move there. I just need to have my programm in both my Macs that's all. Can I download Reunion 13 in both computers please.

It does and, more importantly, all of us learned something here. Thank you.

Am I correct in assuming the two clients cannot work the same specific record at the same time?
Therefore, one client could be modifying the birth date and another the birth place of the same person but if both try to change the birth place at the same time only one change will be see on the host.
I hope that answers your question.

...can you have more than 1 Reunion Touch client communicate with the host database at the same time?

Gregg, can you have more than 1 Reunion Touch client communicate with the host database at the same time? Thinking of when my cousin and I photograph a cemetery using our iPads, could we both be linked back to the host, each taking photos and updating the person. We would not be updating the same record as we have a system whereby we divide and conquer - LOL
Thanks

What Bob said is accurate.
I'll try to explain it in a different way: Reunion on the Mac is a "host" - essentially the owner of the master data. ReunionTouch (on the iPad and iPhone) is a "client" - which modifies the master data through the host.
Running two copies of Reunion on the same family file would be a situation where multiple hosts are taking control of the same set of master data. This would be a really bad situation and Reunion goes to great lengths to prevent it from happening.
I hope that explains it.

Essentially, the Reunion application is a database. Nearly all database software is coded/programmed to prevent more than one user to edit the same record concurrently. There are several dozen good reasons for this, so I won't try to list any. Generally, speaking it is to protect the validity of the data and prevent confusion between users.

Why can’t I use two devices running the desktop app on the same network?
My wife and I sometimes need to work on the same family file at the same time. Her on a laptop and me on a desktop machine. Leister Sales say it’s not possible even if I purchase a second registration number even if both are using Dropbox the same way an IOS device and a laptop.
Any suggestions?Tags: None
