the menu bar.

Activate Your Retail Box Version

vation Code” on the front of the Quick Start Booklet. Using this code you can
activate SongGenie on your computer.
To activate using an Activation Code:
1 Open SongGenie, and select SongGenie > Activate SongGenie… from

the menu bar.

Your SongGenie license will then be added to your equinux ID and activated
on your Mac. The next time you need to install SongGenie you can simply do
so with your equinux ID and password – you won‘t need the Activation Code
any longer. Please store your equinux ID and your password on a safe place.

Moving a license to another computer

All licenses for equinux products are hardware-bound. That means each acti-
vation is valid for exactly one computer. In order to activate SongGenie on
another computer, you’ll first need to reset your license.
To transfer a license to another computer:
1 Open SongGenie on your old computer, and select “SongGenie > Deacti-

vate SongGenie…” from the menu bar. The license is now available and
you can activate the software on another Mac.

2 Install SongGenie on your new Mac.

3 Select “SongGenie > Activate SongGenie…” on your new Mac. SongGe-

nie.

(If you no longer have access to your old Mac, you can also visit

http://my.equinux.com

and reset your license there.)

Family Edition

If you would like to use SongGenie on multiple Macs, you can up-
grade to the Family Edition, which will allow you to use SongGenie on
up to 5 Macs.
