Re: 12.6 released!!!
Quote:
Avid has no problem sending every single one of us numerous and frequent emails advertising their new products, etc....all they needed to do was send out an email about the change to licensing, advise everyone to keep watch for the new one and make the swap, make sure they were out to everyone, and THEN release the software. ALL of this could have been avoided with one simple email that ASKED everyone to "notice". Some people might even call that "giving notice". It would have made everyone's lives simpler, including all the folks at Avid who are now being harassed by their customers. It boggles the mind. |

Re: Did not receive a new license for Pro Tools 12.6 yet
So I made this mistake as well. Past PT 12 updates did not require a license update to run, so after seeing Avid announcements on social media and seeing the installer in my account, I think it is reasonable to assume that the software is ready to install. I've been having some issues with 12.5.2 that I was hoping to resolve, so 12.6 bug fixes are highly anticipated. The license issue was a showstopper. This would be a minor annoyance. Rolling back isn't too much of an issue. However, Avid has removed 12.5.2 installers from my account. I only have access 12.5.0 for some reason. I had to contact support to get the legacy installers that I've rightfully paid for and continue to pay for with my support plan which caused further delay.
My time is valuable. I don't appreciate it being wasted. If Avid is going to make these kinds of announcements, the customer has a reasonable expectation that things are ready to go. If that isn't the case, I'd be far less disappointed if it was simply communicated that way. I suppose as an isolated incident it isn't that big of a deal, but considering the litany of fumbles Avid has made since the PT12 launch, it illustrates all the reasons I have lost confidence in the company. This is the easy part. If you can't get this right, what other things must be going wrong under the surface? Last edited by jeffro; 09-29-2016 at 03:26 AM. Reason: Support Case 03046581 |

Wow.... I'm screwed
Of course, yes, I suppose I should have read about the license surrender issue, but I didn't. I've never had to do this before so I never imagined that this would be the case.... Nonetheless, I performed the upgrade and discovered that its not working and subsequently found out about this surrender issue.... Since I own multiple copies of PT, the only license I had in my account was a single group that didn't include my HD version. So I have updated one of my vanilla versions but my HD rig is down.... JEFFRO, I need your help brother!!!

Re: New license not authorizing Pro Tools 12.6 after activating it
Hello,
I just opened up a new case with the same issue here as well. Downloaded 12.6, though I have no updated 12.6 iLok license in my iLok account. I'm on an annual upgrade plan, so it should be in there. Thanks! Last edited by jeffro; 09-29-2016 at 03:46 AM. Reason: Support Case 03047112 |

Re: Wow.... I'm screwed
Same here. 1 of 2 Vanilla licenses delivered and no HD license. Luckily I saw the complaints here JUST before installing 12.6.
I think I'm jumping off the upgrade/update train very soon. It's too stressful these days with most of the software I'm using.
