Blocs purchase

Hi there everyone.

I have a question. If one has purchased blocs 5 and you get all the blocs 5 updates. What happens when blocs 6 comes out. Do you have to purchase the whole thing again? Thanks for your help in advance.

Unless something dramatic changes that would be my assumption, but there has always been an upgrade discount vs a first time licence. If you look at the current upgrade prices from Blocs 4 to 5 that may give you some idea.

Hi. Thanks for that. I’ll go have a look. Then I’ll have an idea. Any idea on a release time for the next version.

That’s up to Blocs and I have no idea. I think the last couple releases were both around Black Friday, but for all we know it may not even be this year. Blocs 5 is still only on version 5.2.5, which is slower than usual.

Thank you for taking the time to reply and answer my questions. I really appreciate it. :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi again. Do you have to upgrade to the new version or will 5 still work for a while.

If I where to change computers do I have to purchase again or could I just reinstall on new computer. I might be changing from desktop to laptop so want to make sure I can just move it over.

I believe V5 should still work for a while, but there are more people ‘in the know’ than me! I think it will work until web standards change or you outgrow what it can do.

I’ve just done exactly as you describe, iMac to MacBook without any problems whatsoever with Blocs. I used Migration Assistant and I don’t even think I had to add in the license number, it all transferred over.
All fine, go for it.

Fantastic. Thank you. I will upgrade to new version but not immediately. Just want to make sure I’ll have time.

Good to know that I can change computers if and when the time comes. Really appreciate your help. Thanks again.
