Default PT Studio/two machines.

I have one PT Studio plan. I wish to use it on another Mac, but when i plug in my ilok and go to my account and avid link to download the software, it won't give me an option for that. And yes, i am only using one machine at a time. Do i need to perfom some deactivation on machine one before i can download the software for machine two?

You shouldn't need to do anything special. Provided that the license is on your physical iLok and not in a cloud session, you should just be able to plug in the iLok and launch Pro Tools.
I would recommend installing iLok License Manager, if you haven't already. Then, instead of using Avid Link, log into your Avid account via browser and download the installer from the My Products section of your account, or from the Avid Download Center, if you need an older version. After running that installer, and any additional plugin installers needed, you should be able to plug in your iLok and get to work.
