License Manager
AutoCAD 2017 for Mac introduces a new License Manager making it easier to change between license
types and save your work when a network license loses connection with the License Manager.
You no longer choose your license type and enter a serial number during the install process. Instead, you
select it when you first launch AutoCAD. You choose between standalone (Enter a Serial Number) and
network (Use a Network License).
A button in the About box provides access to the License Manager where you can view information
about the software license and installed Plug-ins, Add-ons, and Extensions. You can also change the type
of license. For example, you can change from a network license or standalone (serial number) to another
license type.
