I don't believe that those are tied to your computer. I was able to install P5 with the same serial/reg codes on several computers over the years.

I think that the only Cake software that requires a server for activation on your PC are the "connected" applications that can be managed via Command Center.

thanks abacab!

hmm when i try to register it says ser# already registered, but it is not listed in my account anymore. i'm sure it used to be on there.

At the bottom of the list might be arrows that look sort of like brackets. The one on the right will take you to the next page.

Hello Andrew.

I am having a problem now. I had to uninstall the update since it messed up my soundcard at first, but then I found out from syrath's post how to fix that problem by downloading ASIO4all software.

The trouble is that now that I have reinstalled everything, the update will not accept my Registration Code that you guys sent to my email. What can I do about that?

Thanks,
David V.

Sorry to hear that " />

Why not use yahoo or hotmail, or gmail now. I NEVER use my ISP's email.

Couldn't be helped. No cable where I'm at. I do use other emails; my concern was regarding having lost the address CW identified me with. Anyone know how to change my registered address so I'll get mailings?

Andrew,
When I called, it was quite interesting. There was no phone menu (press this button for sales, press this button for TS, etc.), just a message saying that the office hours were from 9 am - 6 pm. The registration screen said hours were 9 am - 8 pm. I called at 7 pm. So, I started pushing buttons until I finally found myself in a menu which finally got me to a very nice lady who expressed complete surprise that a registration code was even needed. However, she didn't bat an eye. She took my s/n and generated a reg code for me and everything is copasthetic once again.

You might want to inform the people who answer the phones that registration is, indeed, necessary.

Ok, thanks for the feedback. Will pass along...

I registered version 2 but 2.5 will not accept the registration key I was given and it will not let me re-register. HELP

This was a problem I had, hence this thread.
My V2 registration number was no good. Just go to the link earlier in this thread and request a new registration number. Mine came though almost instantly.

Thanks Andrew for the info, my reg is done.
one more Q if I may, I just purchased a mac pro, What is the best way to transfer P5 from my PC to my new machine. I now have LOGIC PRO 7 but would like to check out the new P5 anyway?

I would do a fresh install on the Mac Pro on your XP partition. So V2.0 first, then v2.5. Use your SN and reg code that you should now have.

You don't need do this from the computer that you run the DAW from. So I assume you have internet access now...just go here:

http://www.cakewalk.com/register/default.asp?LID=3&PID=CWP5200

Then type in the serial number from Version 2 and make sure you include a valid email, and you will get your reg code. Then when you get home, just pop it in when you launch the software.

Thanks Andrew, just done it.

And got the code almost instantly.

thank you.

Andrew, my DAW is not hooked up to the internet (and never will be), so I am in the same situation, when I got to the register page during install. Now everytime I start the program I have to hit Register Later, since I can't hit register and connect to the internet. Is there a work around so I can get a registration number? Also, when I started using the new version I could see that midi data was be sent from my midi keyboard to the program but not to the speakers. When I look at audio set up drop down I do not see a listing for my Motu 828 Mk II only the Motu 11 in and 11 out but not a set up for the 828. Any reason for this?

You don't have to do it from PC that has P5, it is not tied to a computer ID. Go here:

http://www.cakewalk.com/register/default.asp?LID=3&PID=CWP5200

Then type in the serial number from Version 2 and make sure you include a valid email, and you will get your reg code. Write or print it out, then just pop it in when you launch the software.

Use your new one. You shouldn't have a problem.

I am not even sure what process you think we would have you go through, but you can just call too :)

And so I am clear, install the update only once...when you call and give us the serial number you got for Version 2, we will give you back a reg code which can be used to complete the registration.

Can I email the serial number, if so where to? Cheaper than phoning from the UK.
