How do I enter my permanent authorization code?

If you are running with a temporary code you can enter the permanent code by clicking on the Register button. This button is found at the bottom of the expiration message. Here are the directions.

If you are using a standalone software do the following...
- Quit/Exit the program if it is already running.
- Launch the program.
- You will see the message telling you how many days you have left.
- At the bottom of this message is a Register button.
- Click the Register button and enter the information it asks for.

If you are using a plug-in do the following...
- Quit/Exit the program if it is already running.
- Launch the host program. (e.g. After Effects, Motion, etc)
- Apply the plug-in to a Solid, or however you normally add it to your project.
- You will see the message telling you how many days you have left.
- At the bottom of this message is a Register button.
- Click the Register button and enter the information it asks for.
