Transferring licences between dongles

Hey, guys.

I’m running Cubase 7.0x and tonight installed Wavelabs 8.5, my first version of that product. It ships with its own usb dongle and works fine with it.

That said, I may be misunderstanding how to transfer licensces. I now have two dongles, one for Cubase and one for Wavelabs. My desire is to consolidate them both onto one dongle. What I thought I read was that you simply plug both into the computer, start the eLicenser, and then drag and drop. However, that’s not working as I would expect. There are two problems.

First, if I have both the Cubase and the Wavelabs dongles plugged in, Wavelabs doesn’t recognize the license and won’t start. If I unplug the Cubase dongle, Wavelabs starts just fine. Cubase, on the other hand, doesn’t mind them both being plugged in and comes right up. Strange.

More to the point, when I bring up the eLicenser with both dongles plugged in, it only sees the Cubase one. Consequently, I don’t know how to go about the drag and drop that people have mentioned.

Could someone point me in the right direction on how to get the licenses onto a single dongle? I’m sure it’s simple and I’m just overlooking something basic.

Thanks!

Hi ChrisDuncan,

please connect your second USB-eLicenser to a different USB-Port. It sounds like it is not being recognized at all by that computer.
