Yeah, when you transferred the program, you also transferred the licence
key. So now you've got the same key in use twice :)

Remove the key and use a different one (or: power down the old computer).

To remove the key, start the Remove Office tool. Immediately press the
"Option" key, and it will give you the option of removing the installed key.
You can then enter one of the other keys.

Cheers
