Re: Protools 7.1 with 7.3 iLoc
Only 7.2 licenses must be surrendered so they become a bundle. Your 7.x license is safe.

Re: Protools 7.1 with 7.3 iLoc
Surrender our 7.2 license? Really? This is a first as far as I know. I have always installed new versions of ProTools on a separate hard drive first, and done a lot of testing before making it my production version. So far I have never been able to switch to a new version right away because of problems with Plugins, virtual instruments or bugs within ProTools. How can Digidesign expect us to take a leap of faith to a new version? are we to ignore history and common sense? This is not video game software, some of us actually make a living with these tools. Surrendering a license is simply ridiculous. I hope you are mistaken or I misunderstand.

Re: Protools 7.1 with 7.3 iLoc
I've just seen the following in another post.
From the 7.3 upgrade page: Quote: Important information about your iLok licenses for Pro Tools HD 7.3 software Upgrading from Pro Tools HD 7.2? When you purchase a Pro Tools HD 7.3 software upgrade from Pro Tools HD 7.2, your current iLok licenses for Pro Tools HD 7.2 software will automatically be replaced with new bundled licenses for both Pro Tools HD 7.2 and Pro Tools HD 7.3 software when you visit iLok.com to authorize your software upgrade. This enables you to continue using Pro Tools HD 7.2 software (should you need to) while enjoying the benefits of Pro Tools HD 7.3 software. Each authorization consists of a primary bundled license and a backup bundled license for your safety. Any unused Pro Tools HD 7.2 software licenses in your iLok.com account (ones you haven’t yet downloaded to an iLok) will automatically be replaced with new licenses as well. Upgrading from an older version of Pro Tools HD? When you purchase a Pro Tools HD 7.3 software upgrade from any version prior to Pro Tools HD 7.2 software, you will receive a new software license for Pro Tools HD 7.3 software through your iLok.com account. Your previous license will remain intact. |

Re: Protools 7.1 with 7.3 iLoc
No, you're right. It's not video game software, and that's why you surrender your 7.2 license into a new 7.2/7.3 bundle license.
