Everyone who has ever had to input all the activation codes a second time has asked for something like this! :D
My mom always told me that happiness was the key to life.
At school they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.
I said “happy" and they told me I didn’t understand the question.
I told them they didn’t understand life.

Many thanks Vincent for your reply.
When I changed from SolitairePlus to S-4000Pro all my software was registered for the new machine.
I received a printed list that looks like the example you posted.
I have asked MSDE to send me this file again as "e-file" in email attachment.
Activation codes are no secret since they only function with the owner's machine serial number.

On a slightly different note, has anyone tried importing new non-MS fonts successfully to the S4K?

If so, what is the process again (have not visited my machine for a few weeks or the manual)? Where do you purchase/downloads these fonts?

Thanks.

Well, the code procedure does not work here in NTSC land. Spent hours last night.

I made a .txt file exactly the same method as Vincent posted of all of my codes; 3D effects_1: 12345678910..... I even placed the serial# of the unit with and without a hyphen. I then tried naming the .txt file in both singular and plural-in German and in English plus three USB drives to NO avail.

Maybe Vincent can send out an actual PDF of his sheet so we can observe the format. The number code is a non-issue as it pertains to his unit and is not a universal code system.

Hello everybody!!!!!, we are drifting off the subject of my confusion. All my software is in the DEMO mode since I installed OS 1.3 and 2.0 for the third time, I'm dead in the water and sinking. :ugeek: See I even got my water goggles on.

Never mind I figured it out myself. I took the goggles off.
Thanks anyway, at least we found out about putting in the activation codes another way.

Vincent,

I am wondering where you got this code file and how exactly it works as both MSUS and MSDE is acting like they don't have anything like that.

Is it an actual software you activate first or just a file of your activation codes.

If just a file could you send me it to me in an attachment to my e-mail address of Ok2bclever@yahoo.com so I could see exactly how it is formatted?

And exactly how does it work, I mean what is the procedure?

Do you plug it in prior to power up, go into Install product and choose Activate of a software and it comes up automatically or what?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, I wasn't at home these days...

I'm not surprise by the reaction of MS...I'm used to, don't worry, they'll probably put out all that stuff soon... :roll:

To Tim...no it is not an actual software, it's just a simple text file with the activation codes.

The procedure is exactly the one I described before...you have to plug your usb key when the machine is allready turned on, then you go to system settings, install new products, insert your cd with the softs, clik on the soft you want to activate, then it takes one or two seconds, and then it's automatically activated.

This works only for the Bogart SE softs, and not (yet) for those in the Media Manager (premium packet...).

I'll send you the file, so that you can see how it is...
