  • Home and Student licenses: one device only
  • (Individual) Academic licenses: two devices activated
  • (Individual) Standard (Commercial / Professional) licenses: four devices activated, run two simultaneously

Uninstalling itself is not enough: you need to deactivate on the old device (which you can do without uninstalling.) If you deactivate on a device, then it no longer counts towards your limit.
However... you have a limited number of license transfers per year, traditionally 4.
(If you can present proof of repair of a computer, which required you to switch computers temporarily while you got it repaired and then switched back, then Mathworks will reset the count for you.)
