primary pc not connected

from Stardock Forums

I have 2 PC, 3 monitors, 1 wireless keyboard, and a mouse. I was able to connect Multiplity 4 Pro to the secondary, but I am having issues connecting to the primary; it does not recognize it. Here is the thing, I am completely "blank" on computer know-how, so please take extra steps to delineate instructions on what do I need to do. I will send you a new post with a screen snapshot.

I think you are confusing how that works and \ or the error you are getting.

A rule: Primary PCs cannot connect to other Primary PCs

Thus, when you say you cant connect to a Primary, what you are really saying is, yes, you can set up the connection to a Secondary, but the Primary is not connecting to it.

This is absolutely where you are going to want to start:

Sorry to read you are having issues.

From the sound of your post, this was working at some point, yes?

What amazes me is that you tech people expect us, regular buyers, to understand all your jargon regarding installation and everything about the product. I am a 72-year-old man, and my knowledge is not as extensive as yours. Please get on the phone or live chat to help me fix this, preferably now

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Unfortunately, Stardock don't do live support. We do support via forum. It is best for you to get someone near with some technical know how to help.

I don't see that anything we have asked of you is overly 'technical' - even the link to the article (that I wrote) is written in a way to not make too many assumptions about things.

That said, if you have any trouble with any of it, let us know here and we will assit you.
