I just tried to run Sonar and it says I am running in demo mode contact support.
There isn't any support to contact does this mean i'm screwed?

    There are still some people working and this has been fixed for others.
     
    Not sure whether you need to try raising a support request or whether they will see it here and fix it for you. I would try the former until someone who knows better suggests the best way forward.

    Glad you fixed it, But I found that all you had to do was open and run CCC. ( for now anyway)

    I posted in another thread that mine went into demo mode and learned it happened to someone else and then it fixed itself.
    I was very relieved thinking mine would correct itself but I'm still getting demo mode.
    I just called the number in the email they sent me (stating they had cancelled my membership) and there was no answer at all.
    How did you contact support asimmd?
    Johnny, I just launched Splat from CCC and still get demo mode.
     
    Thanks very much,
    Randy

    I guess it depends on if you were fully paid up or not. It only happened on my Office computer that I don't actually use Sonar, but it's a back up copy and at the time outdated. I hadn't even run it for months.  I just opened CCC  and after it had scanned Sonar the demo mode went away. I didn't even update it. I only use it for reference when helping here. But a few had posted this same solution. It's one of those things that makes me nervous about the on line system going haywire on us. So I have one DAW on line and one offline.

    Actually the person that said it fixed itself was like me, 6 months into the rent to buy plan.
    I would be happy to pay my balance if I could own the last release.

    I would try e mailing Cakewalk or even a PM to one of the surviving employees like Neil. They seem sincere in helping people with these issues.

    When you change the name of your computer you have to re-log into the CCC.
    peace!

    I emailed Cakewalk Activation Support and a few hours later it was fixed.
    I did try running CCC as is the normal thing to do but it didn't
    fix the problem it still went into demo mode.
