Cannot activate PT11, old license missing
Hi there,
I am trying to activate PT11 on my old Macbook Pro. However, in order to do that I have to surrender the previous license (PT 9+10 bundle). When I try I get an error message in the iLok manager, "one or more licenses to surrender cannot be found in your account." Sure enough, the PT 11 (part of a PT upgrade bundle from 2015) license is listed in the iLok Manager's 'all licenses' window, but PT 9+10 is missing. How do I get this to show again so I can surrender? Thank you. Scot |

Re: Cannot activate PT11, old license missing
PT11 does not need PT9 or PT10 license to run, in only seeks a license for PT11. Double-check your license key and perhaps copypaste here what should be on your key. It is possible (just trying to scare you) that the license key is broken.

Re: Cannot activate PT11, old license missing
Hey JFreak,
Do you mean the serial number of the old license or do you mean the iLok dongle/key might be broken? If you mean the physical iLok, it's working fine with my other licences. Anyhow, here's a screen grab of what happens when I try to surrender... |

Re: Cannot activate PT11, old license missing
Okay so what I understand from that picture is you have some sort of PT11 upgrade license that obviously requires you give up your old PT9+10 license bundle. The error message says iLok License Manager does not see that license bundle on your license key. Can you verify you have that license bundle?

License surrender means just that, in order to deposit new (upgraded) license to your license key, old one must be deleted first. And if the old license cannot be withdrawn, new license cannot be deposited.

Yes, and that's the problem. I cannot surrender what is no longer there. I'm stuck.
Here are two screen grabs of the bundle I am trying to upgrade to... |

Re: Cannot activate PT11, old license missing
Oh, one more thing: I am also currently subscribing to an up-to-date Pro Tools licence for my iMac (I use the old laptop when working away from home). Would that have had something to do with the disappearance of the PT9+10 bundle?
