new computer
I have a new PC and when I tried to install Acronis, I got asked about daily/hourly backups, which I don't want.
When I switch my PC on, I get notified that there are too many Acronis activations. I only want to back up once a week.
Where do I go from here?
Many thanks,
Eileen

Dear Steve
Many thanks. Actually, when I tried to backup, it looks as if it's working. But does that mean I may be on a trial? I haven't moved anything from the defunct PC
When I tried to check if any updates were available, my serial number wasn't accepted, although I copied it over, and didn't write it.
A bit lost.
Thank you for your assistance.

Eileen, if you open your Account page in the ATIH 2016 application (icon that looks like a person - head & shoulders), this will show you the activation status for your software - see screen shot attached from one of my systems.

Thanks so much. I opened the page, and it says I am activated for three computers. I thought I was only activated for one. (I only need one.)
But when I clicked on Show serial number, nothing happened. Can I check my serial number any other way?
Many thanks,
Eileen

Eileen, the best way to check your serial number(s) is to sign in to your online Acronis Account with your registered email address and password, this will show you what products you have registered plus you can download a text file containing your serial numbers, as well as downloading the installation software or bootable rescue media (ISO image) to burn to a CD.

I did that and it seems everything is ok. The serial number it gives is the same as the one that wasn't accepted, but I'll look into that again when I have some peace. At the moment it looks as if I can backup successfully.
A great help. Thank you again.
