Redemption to Dongle
n
This procedure is applicable only to Media Composer.
As you have bought the product, you can install and then activate it with Application Manager
with the online activation using the system ID and activation ID. However, you can change the
activation method and activate the product with a dongle. This option is only possible if you are
upgrading from the perpetual model to the perpetual one.
To redeem to dongle, do the following:
1. From My Account page, go to the My Products and Subscriptions page.
2. Click Show for the product you are going to activate with a dongle. Remember that it must
be a perpetual license. Note that you can redeem a license to dongle only in a case, if this
software code was not activated before.
