help! with plugins and ilock authorization for PTMP

[marcocuneta]

hello! i just recently purchased the PTMP, it works just fine, but im having trouble with authorizing the bundled plugins.i tried to install the MUSIC PRODUCTION TOOLKIT and BOMB FACTORY plugins that came with the cd (or any other plugin for that matter). after installing it, and starting PTMP, a dialogue window appears that says i have to authorize it for the ilock.. i click on "use registration card" checkbox but it cant find the authorization from the ilock. How can i properly authorize the plugins? do i have to purchase these authorizations separately? the PTMP package is quite expensive as it is! please, need your help and advice, thanks!

well...did you BUY the Music Production Toolkit and the other plugins you're talking about?
If so, did you create an account at iLok.com, and follow the instructions on the cards to have the licenses for the plugs deposited in your iLok account?
You don't simply GET the MPTK and all the Bomb Factory plugins that are on the installation discs, they're there as a convenience, should you choose to buy them. You should only install the plugins that you have licenses for.

sorry noob questions heheh...anyway, yes i did create an ILok account, but i did not buy the MPTK and other plugins that was in the PTMP disc. i really thought that everything in the disc was packaged with the sequencer as free plugins. guess i just have to make do with what i have as of the moment hehehe! thanks for the advice. PRO TOOLS RULES!
