UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 73 - Using UAD Powered Plug-Ins
Important: The optional plugins are contained within the UAD software in-
staller, not the .uad key file. Download and install the latest UAD software ver-
sion to ensure the optional plugins that you are authorizing are installed.
Mac OS In Mac OS X, once a card is authorized and it is used with a different System
or CPU, you can copy the com.uaudio.uad.plist file (inside Library:Prefer-
ences) into the current Library:Preferences instead of loading the .uad file.

Timing
Purchasing and downloading plugin authorizations is a completely automatic
process. Purchased plugin authorization keys can now be downloaded within
minutes of payment verification.
Note: We recommend you do not wait until the last day of demo period to
purchase plugin authorizations, in case there is a unexpected delay in obtain-
ing authorizations.
Authorizing Multiple Cards
When you buy a copy-protected plugin, your purchase is valid for up to four
UAD cards. However, the authorization key is tied to the specific Hardware
IDs entered during purchase. If you have four cards when you purchase the
plugin, your .uad file will authorize all four cards. If you have one card during
purchase then later acquire another card(s), you will need to acquire a new
.uad file containing the authorization for the new card(s). However, there is
no charge for the new .uad file containing the additional authorizations. Your
purchase buys authorizations for a maximum of four cards.
Each individual card must be authorized in order to run copy-protected plu-
gins. If one card is authorized then another card is added without obtaining
a new .uad file, the copy-protected plugin will only load on the authorized
card. To obtain a new .uad key file for additional cards, visit my.uaudio.com
on the internet.
If two cards are authorized at the same time then one is removed, the remain-
ing card stays authorized. If you install an authorized card into another sys-
tem or want to use it with a different OS partition on the same system, you will
need to reapply any .uad files containing the card's authorizations on the
new system or OS partition.
