Title: Quick questions - Upgrade to MC23 - 2 Issues (License & MadVR)
Post by: cowboydude99 on May 02, 2017, 09:56:59 am
Hi,
I just purchased the upgrade license.

I have 2 concerns.

1 - MadVR Question:
   - I backed up MC21 (File \ Library \ Back Up Library)
   - I restored this in MC22.
   - Do the MADVR settings move over as well?

2 - Upgraded License:
   - When I installed MC22, there was nothing about licensing.
   - How do I apply my new MC23 license?
   - When I registered/purchased the upgrade license, it did ask for my original registration code, which I used.
   -  Is there anything I need to do to make sure I'm using the updated license?

#2 When opening MC if it doesn't say so many days left of trial your registration went through...or you can check your self under help and registration info...

Correct, it appears to be registered.

But my MC21 license I bought allowed me to upgrade to 22...

I then bought the MC23 upgrade.

Is it all just 1 license attached to a specific username or email address?

I don't know how to confirm if I'm using the proper license... or if it even matters.

It doesn't matter as long as it's working....It depends on the date of MC21 you bought, perhaps you bought it just as MC22 was announced and that registration was good for MC21-22 just as the announcement of MC23 ie: if you purchase a 23 license now it will also be good on MC22 builds from .95 up along with MC23 when it's released. Either way. The license are specific to a email (the email can be changed) but is not 1 license you should have at least 2 distinct licenses.

I have MC22 and just purchased upgrade to MC 23 on 5/14/17. When I click on the registration number to download, or I try to download "Media Center 23 Windows - 390179.mjr" I get a dialog box / error message, "Your license file is for a different product." How do I correct this error so I can download MC 23?

have you read anything? MC23 has not been released yet! You bought in now to save money! there is no 'download for MC23' yet....that .mjr file is an easy way to input your license. If you are up to date with MC22 (.105) that .mjr file would input YOUR MC23 license and upon the release of MC23 all you would need to do is download and install and you would be set. Oh and guess what that .mjr file is only good for 14 days....

MC23 won't be released until later in the Summer (this is a pre-order).

To use the license now just make sure you're using the latest MC 22.0.105 build (the MC23 license also works with the latest MC22 as well!).
