I was just about to buy. Glad I found this thread first. I'm considering changing from mac to windows maybe later this year. So just to confirm, even for the latest version, i.e. cartoon animator 4, windows and mac versions are considered different products? If so, any possibility of this changing in future? Seems like a backwards policy given that most competitors products are compatible with both OS's. Cheers.  

Hi... 

Your understanding is correct. Windows and Mac versions are treated as two different products. Your serial number for Mac won't work on Windows and vice versa. This has been our policy since Mac versions were introduced and I don't know of any plans to change this in the immediate future.

I am in a similar position and wondered if I could trade in the Mac serial number for a Windows one at a reasonable discount

There is no trade in option but you can purchase the Windows version for a discounted price. You won't need to pay full price again. Alternatively if you purchased the Mac version within the last 14 days you can return it and change it for the Windows version.
