Problem entering license info

e14 Contributor
e14 Contributor over 15 years ago

I recently upgraded the hard drive in my Mac.  Eagle wants me to

re-install the eagle license.  I browse to the path of original  *.key

file but it also asks me for an 'installation' code (ten lower case

letters).   My original invoice does not have anything referring to an

installation code.  However, there is a 10 digit hexadecimal license

number as the key file name, but the license dialog does not like it.

 

Any tips or help appreciated.

    You should have received a license card along with the CD containing

    your license file. That card also contains the installation code. The

    code is not printed on the invoice.

    Tilman,

     

    Thank you for the response.   The download/purchase was electronic, so I

    never had a CD or license card.   But your response jogged my memory and

    I was able to locate where I kept the install code written down.

     

    Thank you for your help!

    The installation code is presented at the same page where you downloaded

    the license file.
