activation to the importing computer. The presence of an active license allows
your Autodesk product to run on that computer.
To import a license
1 On the computer where you want to import the license, start the License
Transfer Utility.
■ Windows 7 or XP: Click Start menu ➤ Autodesk ➤ [Product
Name] ➤ License Transfer Utility.
■ Windows 8: Right-click Start screen ➤ All Apps ➤ License Transfer
Utility – [Product Name]
■ Mac OS X: Open Applications/Autodesk/[Product
Name]/Licensing/License Transfer Utility.
■ Linux: Open a shell and run the following command, where
<productKey> is the product key for a specific product, not a suite:
/opt/Autodesk/Adlm/R7/bin/LTU <productKey> 2014.0.0.F
-d "SA"
NOTE If your product is installed on Mac OS X or Linux as part of an
Autodesk Suite, you may find a shell script such as LTU.sh in the same folder
as the application. This script will start LTU and provide the correct product
key. To use the script, run it in Terminal, select the language of the user
interface, and then follow the remaining steps of this procedure.
The Import the License dialog box displays the Autodesk product name
and serial number.
NOTE If you are importing a license to replace a trial license, you will see
the Update the Serial Number and Product Key dialog box. In this case, enter
the required data, and then click Update.
2 In the Import the License dialog box, click Sign In.
3 On the Log In page, enter your Autodesk user ID and password and click
Log In.
4 On the License Import Confirmation page, click Finish.
The license is now imported to the computer and you can run your
Autodesk product on this computer. If you want to transfer the license
to another computer, repeat the export and import procedures.
