How to upgrade to hobby version

scott216
scott216 over 14 years ago

I installed the free version of eagle in my Mac.  Yesterday I paid for the

hobby version, but I have two problems.  First, is Cadsoft hasn't sent my

activation code.  I asked for it twice.  I did get an PDF invoice with an

order number and a serial number, but the activation code is 10 lower case

characters which I still don't have.  Second, Eagle wants to know where my

license file is. I don't see a license file in my Eagle directory. Will

this be sent to me with the activation code.

    I'm all set. I was surprised everything took so long.

    Hi Scott,

     

    You should be receiving a second e-mail with the credentials on the

    second page to obtain a key file and installation code from our server.

     

    Remember that the key file will appear above the button to download the

    key file it is critical that you right it down since this is the only

    time it shows up.

     

    Once you have those two items you can proceed with the installation.

     

    Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

     

    Best Regards,

    Jorge Garcia
