product key. You’ll receive an activation key for each product key. If you activate the software on
multiple computers, each computer has a unique Installation ID for each product key and requires
an activation key for each installation ID.
Why isn’t my software activating?
You require an Internet connection to automatically activate your software and access the SMART
server (https://webservices.smarttech.com). Ensure that you’re connected to the Internet and that
your firewall and proxy settings allow you to access the SMARTserver.

There are several reason why your product key might be invalid:
l You entered an incorrect product key. Check the spelling of the product key or copy and paste
the key.
l You didn’t activate the correct SMART software. Ensure that you’re activating the correct
SMART software.
l The product key identifier (prefix) is incorrect. For a list of these identifiers, see Entitlements on
page 15.
l Your SMARTResponse software is in the incorrect mode. When you activate
SMARTResponse software, ensure the software is in the correct mode.
l Your installation might be corrupted. Remove and then install your SMART software.
