Activation Keys

If you are using a product that has a Licensing dialog (such as Mari or Hiero) and currently have no license, or are running a temporary license, your product prompts you at start-up to enter your activation key into the Licensing dialog. This step is skipped if:

you’ve already activated a permanent license, or

you’re trying to activate a product that doesn’t have a Licensing dialog (for example, a set of plug-ins). If this is the case, go to https://www.foundry.com/licensing/activate-product, enter your activation key into the field provided, and follow the instructions on screen.

Note:  If you have an Activation Key for a login-based license, go to https://www.foundry.com/licensing/activate-product to activate your license.

If you’re trying to activate a product using the Licensing dialog, do the following:

1.   Launch your product.

The Licensing dialog displays.

2.   Click Install License.

3.   Click Activation Key / License Text.
4.   Enter your activation key and click Install.

Your product connects to our activation server, retrieves the correct license key for your system, and installs it.

Your product launches when the download and installation are complete.
