Torben Raab Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Hey there, we just bought some business licenses of Affinity V2 Bundle. The payment process was done quickly and we received the Activation-ID and Password, but in the Applications there is no way to put these things in. Am I missing something? Hope you can help.

Hi, you put the organisation name and activation ID into the text boxes that are presented when you download the app from our site (or if you download from a third-party app store, you click "Activate" first).

Is there a way to add one of the volume licenses to my personal account? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torben Raab Posted November 18, 2022 Author Share Posted November 18, 2022 Ok but as described in my first post we aren't able to activate the license in the App. As it states that "The Affinity-ID and password are unknown" (translated). I can activate it with the ID it was bought with but we can not provide everybody in the company with this ID. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mftree Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Still does not work. Using the license credentials is broken, the activate-button does nothing. System macOS 12.6.1 affinity-activation-broken.mp4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
