1) Is this problem also possible with permanent licenses ? ( I don't see the reason why it should ?...)
2) In case of a problem such as described , is it the computer bearing Hauptwerk and the sample sets that has to be "updated" or isn't it the ILOK -key ? ( that you can put into another computer in order to link to internet , as many ( or at least some )of us don't use the internet link on the computer dedicated to the organ ?
Thank you very much !
When this happened to my customer's PC, the request was to set the time accurately, then connect to the Internet. I forget now, but ISTR clicking on an OK button and it all took care of itself. This was using a single perpetual licence, NOT a subscription or time sensitive licence.
It does not affect Hauptwerk itself, only the iLok licenses.
It must put a time stamp within each licence on each computer, but as the particular key had only be used on a single computer, I have no way of knowing whether licenses on other computers would have been affected.
When I have nothing better to do, I might try setting the clock back on one of my PCs with HW6 installed and see what happens when I plug the dongle into another, where the clock hasn't been touched.
As Martin says, if you possibly can, change your battery before it runs out.
