''Copy Protection Violation'' Cant use Ableton 7 but paid!!!
''Copy Protection Violation'' Cant use Ableton 7 but paid!!!
Since 2 months now I a have a problem with Ableton 7 that I purchased
from the Ableton Website. Everytime I start the Program I get Message from Live saying ''A Copyprotection Violation has been identified. Please
contact...'' and I cant use the program!
I tried reinstalling and installing Live 7.2 with a new Unlock Key and it worked for about 2 weeks. Now again the Message comes and I cant use Live. I tried the same again but it still doesnt work.
Thats really bad since I use Live for producing, djing and many more...
and I paid for the Software! Ableton support doesnt even know what to do and leaves me with the problem.Thats not fair!!!
Can anybody please HELP ME?
Thanks

To Nokatus:
The support asked me for the serial number, what they can check on my acount all the time if they want
and then they said that I should use the beta version.
But it didnt fix the problem!!!
To DJ synchro:
Same here, it happend after a crash and since then its fucked!
I think everyone should know that with Ableton there are many
problems like that!

Im having the same problem. Support gave me a new serial to use after telling me to trash the unlock file and reinstall, which fixed it for a few days. It started happening soon after i started using a plugin called Lucifer by Devine machine. Are you using the same plugin by any chance?

The same thing happened to me with Live 7.0.3 and 7.0.2 during a basic session. A window poped up à la "a copy protection violation has been detected". After some email correspondence with the support I deleted all the preferences and unlocked Live 7 again. Since then it worked without a problem, although i am still feeling very uncomfortable about this whole thing.
The biggest problem is the way the copy protection worked (at least in my case): With the copy protection message coming up the audiostream IMMEDIATELY stopped and there was no way to save the current set. Imagine this to happen during a gig, what a horror. You have to fiddle for over half an hour to get things running again -> a night/business ruined.
This never happend with Live 6 which i am still using to play live. No way i am using Live 7 for live action if Ableton can not guarantee that the copy protection works as it should.

this also happens on Live 6 im afraid. I was advised by support to do the same "delete preferences and unlock file, delete and reinstall Live". The problem returned within an hour. The latest thing i've been told is to reinstall Leopard doing an "archive and install" as it might be related to a corrupt user profile. I gig every week so im screwed if this doesn't solve it.
the people its happen to are you all on Mac's? What version OS are you using? I was on 10.5.2 when this was happening. i've since heard there's issues with 10.5.2. Back to 10.5 at the minute. fingers crossed

I solved this problem by doing an archive and install back to osx 10.5. It was happening when using 10.5.2

What OS are you using? I read recently of someone else having this problem and they were using 10.5.6.
