Activation / Deactivation

Before using Report3D you will need to activate it. The instructions for activating Report3D are listed below; once Report3D is activated you will not need to repeat these steps again unless the program is deactivated. Each of the Licensing keys you purchase can only be used on one computer at a time. If you wish to use the Licensing key on another computer you will need to deactivate Report3D on the computer that the Licensing key is being used on (instructions are below.) You can then use that key to activate Report3D on another computer.

Activation

Report3D can not be used unless it has been activated.

1. Click on the Report3D Icon in order to open the program.

2. You will be asked to entre your licensing key into the text field. It is a string of four sets of four numbers (ie. #### - #### - #### - ####) which is normally e-mailed to you when you initially purchase Report3D. The number can also be found on the c-motion website when you login to your customer's download page. If you press the Cancel button Report3D will close without being activated.

3. When you press activate on the above dialogue box the "Activation Complete" notice should appear.

NOTE: If you receive the "Activation Error" notice verify that you have entered the licensing code correctly. If the problem persists contact support@c-motion.com for further assistance.

NOTE 2: If you receive the "Previously Activated User" notice then the licence is already in use and you will either have to deactivate it on another computer or purchase an additional licence.

Deactivation

1. In order to deactivate the licensing key you need to open the "About" window by selecting the "Help" menu at the top of the screen and clicking on the "About" button at the bottom of the list.
