#AUTODESK 3DS MAX 2012 SERIAL NUMBER REGISTRATION#
Registration is recorded in two locations:Ģ. Inside the customer's computer where the actual software is installed i.e. Registration means my customer details (name, address, email etc) is associated with the product Serial Number. Note that Activation is different from Registration.Īctivation means the program is licensed to run. My copy of 3ds Max 2009 is activated and running normally. Thanks for looking into this but you haven't grasped the nature of the problem. I've attached a jpeg screenshot of my "Unregistered Version" and the "About 3ds Max" info. I was going to run the Product Activation program again but some warning text said that I was about to tamper with Autodesk's licensing so I thought I'd better check here first.

Yep, I'm very pleased for them that their database is in order.Īnyway, I am posting here for some help on how to properly register the installation. They confirm for me that the product and serial no.

to my name in their computerised customer database and "Registration" of the program in my computer's registry. They seem unable to differentiate between the two types of "Registration" i.e. "Registration" of the software and its serial no. I contacted Autodesk support about this and they are more confused than I am. Or possibly it might have something to do with the computer not having an internet connection. Win 7 is better behaved in this area so I did not think it was necessary.

Possibly what went wrong is that I was installing Max to Windows 7 rather than Vista (Vista was the latest Windows version at the time that Max 2009 was released) and I did not deactivate UAC as advised for Vista installations. adding 3rd party plugins or using the PLU to move the license. However Max started up fine and Product Activation was achieved, but I am concerned that without the software being properly "Registered" I could run into problems later on, e.g.

That self-diagnosis was plainly wrong since I am the system's administrator with full rights to do everything, and I was logged in as such. I remember when working my way through the Product Activation program (entailing the insertion of the Activation Code), the second to last page gave me a warning that registration was incomplete because the registry was unable to be written to because it did not have sufficient User permissions. Also, if you go to "Help > About 3ds Max." the displayed info shows a series zeroes instead of my actual serial number. However, the installation is "Unregistered", as indicated in the title bar of the running program. I have a problem with my installation of Max 2009 on Windows 7 (which, btw, has no internet connection).Įverything worked out fine, Product Activation was done via email, and the program runs as expected.
