I have been a cakewalk customer for over 20 years.  I bought cakewalk 6.1 and I have upgraded every time.  I have spent thousands of dollars with Cakewalk.  I used to be able to call tech support and actually talk to someone every time.  They were awesome.  Now I can't activate my software after installing it on a different computer.  I have cakewalk command center.  That is how I installed Sonar.  Now it only runs in demo mode.  I have years of work I need to finish and now I can't do anything.  I have no idea how to get ahold of anyone there.  If I try to email support I get an error message saying that site is under construction.  I just want my software to work so I can work on my projects.

The company known as Cakewalk went out of business.
 
That is the first thing you need to understand. They passed on. They are no more. They have ceased to be.
 
Their code base and trademarks and some other intellectual property were bought by another company who as a courtesy are keeping some of the old services (such as this forum) up and running. They are under no legal obligation to do this, they do it for good will.
 
They have a new program called Cakewalk by BandLab that works just like SONAR that you can get for free at their website. If you have any problems with it, you can get support from them.
 
Register at BandLab's site using the same email address and password that you used at Cakewalk's site. Then download and install CbB. At that point, you will have a new and improved version of SONAR and be able to get support for it.

Thank you.  I didn't know there was a new free version.  I never used free versions.  I never wanted a free version, usually free versions are worth what they cost.  If it's free, why not just let me activate the version I paid for?
That was a rhetorical question.   Anyway, I will give it a try.  Thanks for everyone's response.
