Izotope Nectar Elements iLok Activation issue on Machine (Solved)
Hi - I don't even remember when or how I picked it up, but I was looking through my downloads folder and realized I never installed iZotope_Nectar_Elements_v1_00 on my PC. SOOOOO, install went fine, but it seems to ONLY allow iLOK Activation to occur on an actual iLOK device, rather than to my computer, as EastWest allows. Is there any way I can get the above resolved, without having to actually buy one of those actual iLOK 2 devices? Bob Bone

Probably got from XLN as a freebie. I just looked in in my iZotope account, Nectar Elements supports both C/R and iLok.

NEVER MIND - I went to the Izotope site and reviewed a video on the multiple authorization methods they support, then went back into Sonar and inserted an instance of Izotope Nectar Elements into a project, which then launched the Authorization Dialog Box window.
This time, I realized my prior mistake. I had checked the box to tell it to use iLOK authorization, thinking it would use my iLOK account, but actually having that checked told it to try to use an actual iLOK device for holding the authorization info.
I simply removed that check from the Use iLOK box and submitted it, with my iLOK User ID filled in, and it worked like a champ.
So, this one is indeed solved. I hope this may help someone else who is new to dealing with iLOK authorizations. :)

Well, I only did that so that if anyone else came along looking for a fix for the same issue, that they would see that it was resolved. It DID feel nice to get a pat on the back so quickly though - sssssshhhhh don't tell anyone I did that - hee hee. Bob Bone

In any case, while I was looking through my iZotope account online, I noticed they had several free plugins too, so I downloaded those last night, and am about to install those this morning. I also posted the freebies in the Deals forum. The additional free plugins they offer are: TAN, Ochre, Red, Nebula3, and Stratipad Swedish. All are available as 32-bit and 64-bit. If I like the freebies, I will likely circle back to the site and take a long look at their other plugins - for potential purchase. The documentation for them IS a bit odd, just because of translation to English issues, but it is still readable, and I was able to understand what they were intending to convey. Bob Bone

This is confusing as you are talking about Izotope, but listing Acustica plugins...just an FYI...

WOW - I think I better go get some more coffee! I DID end up finding those Acoustica plugins at around the same time I was dealing with the iZotope Nectar Elements authorization, but WOW did I just do a 'swing and a MISS' in my earlier post connecting the two companies.
I think I will go back and lay down for a while, and start my day again.
THANKS for letting me know! :)

Speaking of Acoustica......which of those plugs do you recommend or use regularly?

Just for the sake of clarity...
There is "Acoustica", who makes the Mixcraft DAW software
and "Acustica" that makes the plugins...

OK - I give up. Now I am even getting the name of the plugin company wrong, on top of it having zero connection to what scook had posted in the first place.
This is going to be one of those days for me, for sure! :)
THANK YOU cclarry, for your patient corrections of my out of my mind posts this morning. I guess I should have posted things PRIOR to my pain meds kicking in.
As usual, cclarry is quite correct. I SHOULD have not even posted about the free plugins in this thread, but I should have at least gotten the name of the company right. Acustica is indeed the plugin company, and Acoustica is a completely different and unrelated company, per cclarry's post above.
Today is just one big 'start again' kind of day for me, it seems. Well, the 20 mg Oxy and 30 mg morphine pills seem to be working well - TOO well, perhaps. :)
I am going to retreat to the bed and reboot my day.
