Mac and PC are separate.

Please read this:

Make sure you have the right version installed.

I haven't found the answer in your link.

I have MC 18 for MAC.
and just today retrieved the code for the version.

i can't open the MJR file - i get a window saying "The application Packageinstaller.app can't be opened - 10810"

When I enter the code - I get the same I wrote in the 1st topic

please advice

Jim:  I am a happy user of JRiver on PC.  I'd like to install it on a Mac.  Will I need to purchase the software again as if buying for the first time?

It's a separate purchase.  Before you cry wolf, it was a huge huge huge undertaking to port MC.  We're trying to be fair, but also get something for the incredible development effort.

i bought separate licenses for MC 18 for Mac and MC 19 for Windows and I don't mistake on put them into the registration line.
Also I get many emails with restoring instead of 1 email and when I put it in I get answer which I wrote above - "problem restring the licence", details - problem communicating with the licence server.

Update to the latest version available for the major version you have.  See the posts near the top of the board for that major version.
