SPECIAL PRE-ORDER UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS
« on: February 21, 2025, 11:05:42 am »

MC34 will be available in a few weeks, but you can pre-order an MC34 license today at a great price.

You can help us build it and save some money.  The license also works with MC33.0.71 or higher.

Please see below for special upgrade prices from any previous version.

You can use your Registration Code from any previous version of JRiver Media Center.  You can retrieve your Registration Code from our server (see below).

INSTRUCTIONS

Are you planning to use more than one OS?
If so, you need a Master License, which works with Windows, Mac, and Linux.  You can purchase from the Help menu of a current version or you can go here:

Master License Upgrade ( << direct link )    $35.98.

Or do you only need Windows or only Mac or only Linux?
Then you can get the new license here:

Windows Upgrade (direct link)     $24.98.

Mac Upgrade (direct link)    $24.98.

Linux Upgrade (direct link)    $24.98.


PROBLEMS?
Is your old license not accepted when you upgrade? 
Make sure you're on the right upgrade page. 
Use copy and paste with the license.  0 (zero) and O (letter) look alike.  So do 1 (number one) and l or I (letters).

Don't have your license?  Visit the Restore Page  and use option #2 to email yourself your license(s).

If you need more help, please read this thread and ask questions there:  https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,140670.msg975661.html#msg975661

More
Restoring a license

Restoring a backup of your library.  MC makes them automatically.  You can find them by using your OS file browser to search for zip files.  MC33 can restore a backup from MC20 and above.  MC can also restore your settings if you choose.

You can use translate.google.com to translate this page.

If I paid to upgrade to v. 33 less than a month ago, do I have to pay again to move to 34?

Hi Jim,
I've upgraded from Mac-only to Master license 3 weeks ago: would there be any chances to ease my path towards MC34, after having constantly upgraded on the past 4 years since 2021?
I'd dearly appreciate.
Thank you!

Hi,

I need some information about the master license upgrade offer:

I bought previously a Windows license and in a second time (due to change in my main HIFI set up) a Mac one.

Of course, I am now interested in having both Windows and Mac upgrade. 

Can I buy a master license upgrade to do that ?  Taking into account that I do not have a previous master license ?


I am waiting for your reply to place my order...


Best Regards,

I paid for and received my registration code for MC34 And I thought it would install in MC32 awaiting MC34 (in the way your updates used to work) but it won't. Did you change your upgrade process or am I all wet?

You have to use it in the latest MC33, which is 33.0.71.

It won't work in MC32.

Hi Jim, I've paid for the upgrade using an old registration by mistake. Paypal have taken the money, however I'm not receiving an upgrade license I am just getting this message.

"You must first install the correct version of JRiver Media Center, and then restore your license.
JRiver Media Center is available here:  https://www.jriver.com/download.html
Older versions are here:  https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Old_Versions
Then Restore Your License
PROBLEMS or QUESTIONS?  Please read: https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Restoring_a_License

<REMOVED LICENSES>

I think I used the JRMC16 registration code for the up grade when I'm currently using JRMC31.

What do I have to do to get the license, do I have to restore JRMC16 or go back and re-enter my JRMC31 registration code? Or is there some other way?

TIA Steve

Hi, apologies for my previous post. I tried to delete the entire post but obviously failed.

Also, I'm an impatient idiot! The license turned up about two minutes after I posted the above.

Please feel free to delete the post to save my embarrassment.

Many Thanks,

Hi there, I have the same issue as a few others have noted, in that I just paid to upgrade my master license to version 33 only a month ago not thinking it was going to be soon time for the 34 upgrade.  Is there any special price I can get for this further upgrade since my last payment was so recent?  Thank you.
