Take a Tour of the Application

Let’s take a look at the iLok License Manager application. Your screen always shows your locations

on the left, the navigation and relevant action options at the top, and information grids on the right.

Each item that you can select (a location, your account, a license) has a Detail pane that you can

show or hide by clicking the Show/Hide Detail button.

On the Left Side of your Screen

The iLok License Manager screen has a left column that shows your account in the blue box at the

top, followed by your computer, and then a list of connected activation locations followed by a list

of your registered activation locations that are not currently connected.

Account:

Your account will always be at the top of the list. Clicking

the gray triangle at the right of the account box will allow

you to sign out.

Progress Bar / Message Area:

Under your account is a darker blue area where progress

bars and messages are displayed while server operations

are in progress. Do not remove attached iLoks or close the

application while work is in progress.

Location List:

Under the progress bar is the location list. The ﬁrst entry in

the list is always the computer that you are currently using.

Underneath it is a list of iLoks in this order: iLoks plugged

in that belong to your account; iLoks plugged in that belong

to other accounts or are not currently registered; ofﬂine (not

plugged in) iLoks that belong to you.

Plugged in iLoks that are being seen by the iLok server have a dark icon and ofﬂine iLoks are

grayed out. If you are ever unsure of what an icon means, just hover over it for a helpful hint. A list

of icons also appears at the end of this manual.

Each iLok’s icon will also show whether the iLok has Zero Downtime™ (ZDT) coverage and

whether Theft & Loss Coverage is enabled on the iLok. The icon may change if a time-sensitive

deadline is approaching. You can always hover over an icon to get more information on what it

means.
