OK - since on my old computer, I upgraded from MC21 to 23 and now I want to put it on the new laptop, this actually means that I have to upgrade to MC 24 to put it on the new laptop. Correct?

You can use MC23 on both.

But what I am saying is that on the computer, it shows both MC21 and MC22 even though I upgraded to 23.

You must install MC23 and then restore your license.

I installed MC24 in my new computer and it won't allow me to install MC22. Is there too far of a gap between versions?

MC24 wouldn't prevent MC22 from being installed.  What happens?

A box opens up and says that it can't update, must buy new version.

MC22 can't be purchased.  Is that what you're trying to do?

More details would help.

As above. I have MC22 on an  Asus laptop. I bought a new Lenovo laptop last month. Downloaded the trial MC24 (it will suddenly stop playing a song in the middle then jump several songs - in shuffle) then when I open it, it asks for the license and then boom - that box appears.

I'd prefer having MC22 on my new one.

Uninstall MC24.

Install MC22.  Restore your license if necessary.

Here's how it works:

Check your license status under the Help menu.
