Users reported that the Device limit reached dialog in Autodesk products can be seen in the following cases:
A device limit is reached when an Autodesk product is running simultaneously* on the maximum number of devices allowed by the terms of service of your subscription. The Device Limit Reached dialog allows you to manage simultaneous use of an Autodesk product on multiple devices.
*Simultaneous use means that you're using the same product on more than one device, using the same account, at the same time.
Features of the Device Limit Reached dialog
Note: Pausing does not end a drawing or modelling session on the remote device. Since you do not exit the product, no work is lost. When a product is paused on a device, background activities such as loading a large model, rendering sessions, or automations continue to run. Pausing a product on a device only limits your ability to interact with the product on that device. This is consistent across all Autodesk software, where you may see an alert. It helps limit product access to intended users and ensures compliance with our Terms of Use, without compromising your productivity.
If you don’t want to pause a product on the remote device, you can return to it (in the example above, the desktop device) and exit the product.
To learn more, see the general Terms of Use and Offering Types and Benefits. Some Autodesk products fall under Special Terms of Use that may supplement or amend the general terms.
