I'm getting a new computer. I purchased Norton and still have a little over 6 months left on it. I would like to move it over to the new computer and not have to pay for it again, is this possible with Norton?
I know that I can uninstall Microsoft Office from my other computer and then install it on the new one. But since I bought Norton Online I wasn't sure how that would work.
Thank you

Did Norton send you an installation CD, or did you download the program and then install it?
If the latter, and you still have the installation executable - copy it to a cd and install on new machine.

Yes, you can unistall and remove the norton on the existing PC.
And just put the Norton CD into CDrom of your new PC and install it as you'd did it ago. But, you must update the Norton software in order to work in full swing.
There is no problem transferring the software from one computer to another, but keep only one software in use. That is necessary.

It should work ok...I wouldn't ever own Norton but if you like it stay with it. I had Norton 2006 on my sons computer and it takes too much control of other functions. It flat refused to let my network printer be seen..I uninstalled it at all is well. Now I have McAfee on 4 of my computers and PC Cillin on the other.

If you bought norton separetelly from your computer you should be able to move. However when y ou install on the new computer you should call them and tell that you switched. If it's an oem version that came with the computer you can't move it.
