catennacio Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I installed FM2012 on 1 machine and want to install on another machine. On the new machine, I login with my Steam account and see that I already own the game. There is a button called "Play". I click on it and expect Steam to download the game but nothing happens. The page just gets reloaded. Anyone with the same issue? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butters76 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Hmm, that is wierd. It should say you already own the game. But it should not say play. It should be greyed out, like in not installed. Unless you did install it on the new computer and the other computer is still online. Log off steam on the other puter and you should be fine. You can not be logged in at steam on several puters at the same time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can not be logged in at steam on several puters at the same time. I'm on a new computer, so I haven't downloaded the game yet. It says "You already own the game" in a green bar, and next to it is the Play button, clickable. The other computer is shut down already. I entered Steam confirmation code (sent to my email) so I can log in Steam on the new one. What should I see on my new computer? Re-download? Install?

leumd Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I'd try checking if you can 'Delete Local Content' first incase there are some incomplete files lying around. I'd then try verify the file integrity (have a look at post #11 in this thread if you don't know where this option is). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chameleon3 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 You are looking at the game in the Store tab, you can't buy it again because you already own it, that's what the green banner is all about. Open the Library tab, make sure all games are showing (By selecting "All games" next to the search, in the upper left corner) and you should see the game grayed out. Right click it and select "Install game..." Here's a picture showing the Library and two ways to install it, right click and "Install game..." or left click and then the "Install" button. http://i.imgur.com/TjZQF.png Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
catennacio Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 @Chameleon3 Thanks for your answers. On the new machine, Library tab, I don't see FM12, only FM12 demo, although I'm playing on the old machine right now. Strange.. I will check when I get to my office. @leumd: I will def try your suggestion. Will let you know when I'm there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
