Default Wrong iLok ID so can't activate Pro Tools

Hello!!

I have just purchased Pro Tools but unfortunately it seems to be linked to the wrong iLok account. It looks like a second iLok account has been created with my email address as the username however I need the licenses to be under my actual iLok account where all the rest of my current licenses are. I'm presuming this is why I can't open Pro Tools or activate the license.

There doesn't seem to be an option to change the iLok ID or transfer the licenses so I have opened a support case but had no response yet. I really need to open the software ASAP as I'm a student and have a lecture based around Pro Tools in a few hours where I will need to be using it!!

Is there any other way around this or do I just need to wait for customer support?? How long do they usually take??


Thanks!!

While you wait for support to reply you can start a fully working trial license on the correct iLok. This will get you up and running for the time being.

Welcome to the community.

Looks like this was fixed yesterday through your support case.
