I can't seem to get 8 to take my Pro license. I thought it would automagically pull the existing license, but it doesn't. Manually entering my key into 8 doesn't work either.....

Your serial number is registered in your account but it is not needed for the software installation anymore.
Simply login when prompted at VirtualDJ start-up (or in config -> Licenses)

In V8 there's no serial number
You need to log in with your Virtualdj account

You can still put your serial number in manually, but VDJ 8 always asks to go online before accepting it.

Ah, I see now. I had logged in with a Google ID, but I needed to login with my VDJ user/pass.

Google ID works if you have added that google mail on your account
Inviato Sun 11 May 14 @ 12:54 pm
Duh...having 4 or 5 Google IDs means one would need to use the right one too....

Unless you link them in Google I believe... (but not sure)

I never connected my GIG laptop to any Network (even home). Never did any OS updates ever... If I need to update my video card driver, I download it with another machine.
I'm that paranoid. This is my GIG Machine and I don't want to (if I can avoid it) connecting it to any network.
How would you go about installing version 8 on this machine ?
If I need to connect it in order to activate, will it ask again in later time to get verify again ? or is just this one time install to verify ?

Contact support, they can generate for you an offline license file that you can put with a usb key on your laptop.
(or, if you're ready to get it online once, the answer to your second question is yes, it will stay activated forever if it never connects to internet again)

Thanks for the answer.
Once I'm ready to install it in my GIG laptop (just doing a lot of reading first about the GOOD and BAD), I will connect it to my home network to get it verify.
My other question is, I use my home PC for playing around or practicing, would this affect my installation process with my GIG laptop later if I install VDJ with my PC at home ? I like to give V8 a try before installing it in my GIG machine.

Any idea how often it has to verify online? I usually never access the internet at a gig. Just making sure I won't be stuck at a gig without access to my software.
Many thanks,
Scott

As long as you don't give the machine access to the internet, your license info will be retained.
Even if it does have access, it won't require you to login again unless you've used 8 on another machine since.
