What Will I Need to Activate ScriptSync?
• The ScriptSync Activation ID (obtained after you purchase ScriptSync)
If you purchased through an Avid Reseller, the ScriptSync Activation ID is on a sticker
adhered to your Instruction letter. If you purchased through the Avid web store, you receive
your ScriptSync Activation ID through an Avid e-mail or you can also view your Activation
ID by logging in to your Store account at http://account.avid.com/.
• Your System ID
This number pre-displays if you have activated your Avid editing application. If the System
ID does not appear, you can get the number in the following ways:
- The License Profile tab of the Avid License Control tool
- If you purchased your Avid editing application online, you received your System ID
from Avid by e-mail
- The Avid editing application splash screen (Help > About Avid editing application)
- The Console of the Avid editing application (Tools > Console, then scroll to System ID)
- If you purchased your Avid editing application from the Avid store, you can also view
your System ID number by logging in to your Store account at http://account.avid.com/
If you have a dongle attached to your Avid editing application, check the License Profile tab
of the Avid License Control tool or use DongleManager to obtain your System ID. See the
steps below for information about this utility.
• Your Device ID (you only need this if you are running ScriptSync on a system without an
Internet connection). Check the License Profile tab of the Avid License Control tool.
To retrieve your System ID with a dongle attached:
1. Navigate to one of the following locations:
t (Windows) Program Files\Avid\Utilities\DongleManager
t (Macintosh) Applications/Utilities/Avid Utilities/DongleManager
2. Double-click DongleManager.
A window opens and displays your System ID.
3. Copy the System ID, and then close the terminal window.
Running the 30-Day Trial of ScriptSync
Before you purchase ScriptSync, you can try it out for a 30-day period. After the 30 days, if you
do not purchase ScriptSync, you will no longer have access to the ScriptSync feature. The
system keeps you informed of how many days you have left before the trial period ends.
