When you fetch your license, your computer checks in with MacPractice's servers and gets the most up to date information for your serial number. You will need to fetch your license after purchasing a new ability, renewing your MacPractice license, changing your office address, or purchasing additional networking clients. You must have a working internet connection to fetch your license.
