Problem
Reason
Steinberg programs that are using a Soft-eLicenser - a virtual license container on the hard disk - require a computer with Internet access. Without Internet access, licenses cannot be downloaded via the eLicenser Control Center.
Solution
- Install the latest eLicenser Control Center on any computer - Mac or PC - with USB port and internet connection: http://www.steinberg.net/en/company/technologies/elicenser.html
It is not necessary to install the program you want to activate! - Connect the USB-eLicenser. On Windows wait until the driver installation has finished.
- Open the eLicenser Control Center. On Windows computers you'll find it under Programs > eLicenser in the Start menu. On Macs in the "Applications" folder.
- Click on "Enter Activation Code".
- Enter the activation code.
- Select the connected USB-eLicenser as download target.
