Chapter 5 Adding and Upgrading Licenses

License Operations

Note If a license that is represented by a “white page” icon, then that license is currently in use. If you want to deregister a license that is currently in use, you must shut down the application that is using that license.

Step 4 Click Deregister License on the right side of the License Manager window.

Step 5 When prompted to select the transaction method, click Express. This method is easiest and fastest.

Step 6 When the Authentication window appears, enter your Username, Password, and Group ID in the appropriate fields.

Step 7 If the computer uses a proxy server, click Specify Proxy; when the Specify proxy server information window appears, fill in the requested information and click OK.

Step 8 Click OK in the Authentication window.

A progress window might appear while the license is deregistered from your computer.

A window should then appear to indicate that the operation succeeded.

Deregistering a License (Browser Method)

Before using the Browser method, try the Express method. With the Express method, there is no need to exchange codes and you can add many licenses to your computer in one operation. Use this procedure if the Express method fails or you prefer to use the Browser method.

Note If you still cannot deregister your licenses using this method, see the “Technical Support for Licensing Operations” section on page 5-8.
