Ableton Forum

Hi!

I have a question; I'm a owner of a apple g4 powerbook on wich i want to run live 4. This powerbook has no internet. So i unlocked live 4 on my windows pc (wich has internet), and i printed down the unlock key.

Now my problem! I've unlocked live 4 on the powerbook using the manual printed code (unlock key), and now after shutting it down. Every single time the powerbook requires the installation cd for starting live 4?!

Does this means i always have to use the live installation cd to start up live 4 on my powerbook?

Please help!

peace...

Can't you just plug your computer into the internet somewhere temporarily to unlock the software? That's what I did with my studio computer and iBook. I also think that Ableton doesn't mind as long as you own both machines.

Hi sinosphere,

This is probably not related to the unlocking.
Can you explain a bit more "how" the Ableton Live CD is required?

Alex

Hi Alex! The problem is solved! I'd made a stupid mistake!
