First thing today... Was running fine yesterday I believe after applying the latest early release...

Opening the about box shows legal and paid until next year, but the Demo mode warning keeps popping up...

I have no internet in the studio today so CCC won't run... So I can't try a rollback...

What might I do? I'm supposed to be working today...

Thanks...

It does say to contact support, but that machine has no internet right now... Who/how to try?

I guess my first time calling (this year) for support will try the new system... <sigh>...

Hi, Keni. I had the demo mode message a couple of days ago (if my memory serves me right, but could be longer), but it was regarding Melodyne, and SONAR. Both were in demo mode. I contacted support, and was told to reboot, or just restart SONAR. IIRC, I had to do this at least twice before the demo mode disappeared when starting SONAR. Do not know if this helps or not.
All the best.
Edit: Did you do any win updates lately, which could have caused it?

I had this happen to me last week exactly the same, but I did have internet and went to CCC and tried the rollback.
It failed and I had no sonar at all. Totally corrupted Sonar and said it wasn't installed properly.
Only thing that worked for me was to go to windows restore and restored to  the point before the early release
I have not reinstalled the early release and am back on Newbury

By the way I am still on windows 7 sp1

Mine was also related to Melodyne, but no reboots or shutdowns would fix it. Thus resorted to the restore point.
Melodyne shortcut on the desktop also had a broken link and I had to go into programs and drag a new shortcut to the desktop. That happened the next day again with melodyne.

Same here...yesterday.   Rebooted 2x and it was ok.
 

I have a project that was fine until I copied and pasted an audio section with Melodyne.  Now when I exit that file i have to reboot to get Sonar to run again
 

If you mean the timeline won't move forward and just sits there when you hit play....then I know that one too.

Did you render the Melodyne clip before exiting? IIRC I have seen someone have had problems when opening SONAR with an active Melodyne clip. Maybe try to see if that is the case?
All the best.

melodyne is always bounced
