Transferring programs and applications from one HD to another

Thread Starter 

I am planning to buy a new Mac. All my programs and applications are saved with time machine. I have a MacPro 13 and want to go to the MacPro 15 Retina

 

Can I transfer all of of this without reinstalling my prorgams (photoshop, microsoft office and many apps) to the new HD ...

 

I have bought all these programs regularly. But there is a limit on them on how many computers they might be installed

 

Sorry, for asking such a basic questions. But when I changed my machines previously, I just changed the HD. This time I will go for an new machine with SSD

For most programs, as long as the program is only open on one computer at a time, the licensing keys work. Not always true, but I think you should be fine. Keep your serial numbers nearby just in case.
