Transferring soft License (Reactivation)

Hello,

you need to :

  1. Install Cubase Elements 8 on the new computer
  2. Reactivate the license

How to reactivate:

  • Install the latest eLicenser Control Center: http://www.elicenser.net/en/latest_downloads.html
    The eLicenser Control Center is installed along with the Steinberg software but it is recommended to use the latest version.
  • Log in to your MySteinberg account: Sign in
  • In “My Products” select the software you intend to reactivate. The expanded view allows you to start the “Software reactivation” by clicking on the button.
  • Enter the “New Soft-eLicenser” number. The number is displayed by the eLicenser Control Center which can be found in the “Program Files” (Windows) or “Applications” (Mac) folder on your computer.
  • Click on “Reactivate”
  • A new activation code appears in this section. In addition, it will be listed under “My Products” and you will also receive it by e-mail
  • Click on “I’m done” and use this code to reactivate your software
  • Open the eLicenser Control Center click on “Enter Activation Code” and enter the new code
  • Copy & Paste will do! The license will now be stored on your new system. Its registration into your MySteinberg account will be done automatically

Just in case the eLicenser Control Center does not show a Soft-eLicenser, needed for the reactivation, please have a look here:
