If the computer on which you plan to run the BIAS software does not have internet access,
you may use another computer to aid in the authorization process:
1. Launch the BIAS software – when first launched on an unauthorized computer, you will be prompt-
ed to authorize it. Click the "Authorize" button to continue to the BIAS Authorization Manager – you
will need to enter a password for an administrator account to proceed.
2. Select the product you wish to authorize, and enter your serial number and email address.
3. Click the "Alternate Authorization" button.
4. In the Alternate Authorization dialog, click the "Generate Authorization Request" button to generate
an Authorization Request File.
5. Transfer the Authorization Request File that is generated to a computer with internet access (via
LAN, CD-ROM, flash drive, iPod, etc.).
6. After transferring the Authorization Request File to the internet-equipped computer, double-click
the Authorization Request File – doing so will automatically open your web browser, transmit the
Authorization Request File to the BIAS server, and download your Authorization File to the comput-
er's default download directory.
7. Locate the downloaded folder containing the Authorization File (called "BIAS <Software
Name>.baf"), and transfer it back to the host computer on which it the BIAS software will be used.
8. In the BIAS Authorization Manager's Alternate Authorization dialog, go directly to the "To Finalize
the Alternate Authorization Process" section and click the "Open Authorization File" button.
9. Locate the Authorization File that was transferred back to the host computer in Step 7, and click
the "Open" button. Your BIAS software is now authorized – click the "Done" button to
exit the BIAS Authorization Manager.
