Hi,
So now I have a license file that is no good. Can I simple open up that text file and add in the correct PC ID from Mach 4. Or am I am I stuck waiting for Mach to answer my groveling emails to allow me to restart this long, painful process.
Mach4 is licensed differently to Mach3, with Mach4 EACH individual PC (called PCID) on which Mach4 is to run must be licensed to avoid the Demo restrictions. The good news is that
with Mach4Hobby you can have up to five PCs licensed with the one purchase. Further you can 'release' the license on the laptop and then use that 'slot' on another PC. You are
allowed up to seven such transactions in a two year period.
If you buy the Mach4 license direct from NewFangled Solutions (online) you create an account that you can manage your own licenses without the need for NFS personell being
involved, more or less instantaneously. In your case you may have to rely on AVID or whomever you bought the license to manage it on your behalf.
You might try to ask AVID if you can have the username and password such that you can mange the NFS Mach4 license page yourself.
