User Manual

Application menu: Select the license you wish to activate by clicking on it, go to Licenses in the

menu bar, and select “Deactivate”.

Moving Your Activated Licenses

An activated license is one that has been placed on an iLok or a machine location (computer).

Moving an activated license is really just deactivating it from the current location and activating it to

the new one. There are four ways to move an activated license. Start in the “All Activations” tab;

this tab will show you all of your activated licenses and their current location(s).

Drag and drop: Click and drag the license you wish to move, then drop the license on the

desired activation location.

Context menu: Right-click the license you wish to move and click “Activate”; select the new

location and click “Activate”. Your license will be deactivated from its current location and activated

in the new location.

Icon menu: Select the license you wish to move by clicking on it, then click the check mark in the

top right corner of the iLok License Manager window, select a location, and click the “Activate”

button. Your license will be deactivated from its current location and activated in the new location.

From the Details pane: Select the license you wish to move by clicking on it, then if you don’t

already have the Details pane open, click on “Show Details”. Click the “Activate” link, select the

new location, and click “Activate”. Your license will be deactivated from its current location and

activated in the new location.

Transferring Licenses to A Different User Account

Transferring a license to a different user account transfers the license and its associated rights to

that new account. Please note that this is NOT the same thing as moving a license from one iLok

to another within the same account. License transfers carry a fee to cover the cost of the license

transfer and associated notiﬁcations that are made. Moving licenses within your account is free. If

you are just trying to move a license from one location to another within your same account, see

the information on Moving Licenses.

When transferring a license, you will be asked to conﬁrm your account information by signing in

again. This protects you if you leave your account signed in where others can access your

computer. During a transfer, you are asked to enter the User ID of the other account that you are

transferring the licenses to; be careful when entering the destination User ID as transfers are

irreversible.
