With your license on an iLok (instead of in the Cloud), you can still work when there are internet outages

Cloud demands a fast and reliable internet (a tall ask these days!)

A Cloud project must be closed before moving license from Cloud to iLok:

Transferring Pro Tools license from iLok Cloud to iLok Key

By default, the iLok Cloud is set to Automatic Mode.


To transfer a license from the iLok Cloud to the iLok key in Automatic Mode:

1. Sign in to your iLok account on the iLok License Manager.
2. From File, click on Close Your Cloud Session.

Note: Following the process above will deactivate your active license to the iLok cloud making it available for transfer.

3. Connect your iLok key to the computer.
4. From the Available tab of the iLok License Manager, drag the license to your iLok key. To confirm if your license was successfully activated, a pop-up message will appear saying Successful Activation.



5. (my suggested extra steps) – Synchronize iLok, restart computer, launch Pro Tools





USD $30 Annual Insurance (iLok.com - Zero Downtime™ Coverage) - (may your iLok never be lost, stolen or broken!)

Requires signing in to iLok License Manager every 90 days to hit the ZDT “Refresh” button
