Activating
Standard Account
You need a Standard Account to purchase licenses and activate the software.
Start the PluginInstaller.
Create a standard account by clicking the New button, bottom right of the Accounts window.
Enter a descriptive name and a valid email address, and choose an unlock code.
To avoid typos, you need to enter the same unlock code twice.
Click OK.
After the account has been created, click Register to register the account.
You will receive a confirmation email with a confirmation link. Click it, and within a few minutes, the account should become registered, and the icon showing should become ‘smiley face’.
If the email does not arrive, make sure to check your email spam filter!
Save Unlock Code
On the Accounts window, there is a checkbox Save Unlock Code.
If you’re on a secure personal computer, you should first select the entry for the account, then tick the checkbox to save the unlock code.
If you don’t save the unlock code, you will need to re-enter the code each time you start the PluginInstaller.
Multiple Accounts
You can create as many accounts as needed. When ordering a license, you can select which account it should be associated with.
It is OK to re-use the same email address and same unlock code for multiple accounts.
However, if you do re-use the same email address for more than one account, these accounts become hard to distinguish. Make sure to use distinct descriptive names, so you can tell similar accounts apart.
For example, you might use one account that you keep for your own personal use, and one or more additional accounts that you could use for ordering activations to pass on to your customers or colleagues.
Always make sure your account is unlocked before using the PluginInstaller. If you have not saved your unlock code, you will need to re-enter the unlock code first.
Fetch Product Info
Now we need to add the product information for the software to be activated into the PluginInstaller.
Use the Store window in the PluginInstaller, and browse into the catalog of interest.
Click the entry for the product you’re interested in.
Downloading and Installing
Some of the listed products can be downloaded and installed by way of the PluginInstaller.
Look for the Download button. After selecting the entry for the product, the Download button will be available when a product has the option to be downloaded and installed.
For other products, you might need to click the Web Page button to access a download link.
Depending on the product, there might be a ‘free’ or ‘time-limited trial’ option.
Create an Order
If you are ready to order a activation/seat for a product, make sure the product is listed in Installing and Ordering window. If not, please use Browse the Store for Software window and fetch the desired catalog entry.
Enter the number of seats needed.
Type in some order reference that will have relevance to you.
Finally, if you have multiple accounts available, you will now need to select the correct account from the popup menu.
Then click the Save button.
This creates a License Request file (.lirq file name extension).
Send us your order
Attach this .lirq file to an email to [email protected].
In your email, make sure to mention any additional details that might be relevant or useful (e.g. let us know if you prefer us to send you a PayPal invoice).
Payment
Payment processing is not yet automated – you need to manually send payment for the required number of seats to [email protected].
With your payment, make sure to mention the order reference that you used in the PluginInstaller, so we can match your payment to the order info embedded in the License Request.
https://www.paypal.comActivation File
Once we have received your payment, we will email you an activation file for the order, which will have a .capb file name extension. Again, make sure to check your email spam filter!
Start the PluginInstaller and go to the Licenses, Activations and Pending Orders window.
Click the Import button and import the .capb file.
The PluginInstaller will match this activation file to the pending order.
Activate
In the Licenses, Activations and Pending Orders window you can now select the order entry and click the Activate button to activate your workstation.
