Student License Extension Request

[Polina Bouli 0]

Hi! I tried to renew my student license, but it doesn't work.  Specifically, each time  I had completed installment, a window pops up saying that "Vectorworks cannot be activated because your software license has expired", although I installed the renewed student license. I have provided my proof of enrollment as well. I don't understand what I am doing wrong. Any suggestions how to deal with this issue?

 

Many thanks

You should now be good to go, if it gives you any further trouble please let me know.

Hi Jim, 

 I tried renewing my student license, before the software expired. I sent a request for an extension a couple of weeks before it actually expired thinking when the expiration date arrived it would automatically extend but alas that did not happen and it expired on me. Well, nowI have sent another extension request, so i just wanted to know how long it takes to approve or how long ill have to wait for my VW to startup again.

 

cheers

Hi, I am also getting this pop-up however when I login to Vectorworks online there are no issues with my account. Not sure if I have to request an extension on the license, and if so, how do I do this? Any help or advice would be appreciated, thanks.

Approved, looks like it may have gotten stuck on our end. It should be emailing you shortly.

Restart your machine and give it a try now, it should activate as expected.

@JimW,  I am having the same issue as everyone above, how long does the extension request take? I am in the week of completion of semester work, and need the extension of the approved student leave. Thanks

Hello @JimW it's me, another person having the same problem, but with an additional question. Does the extension give you access to the latest VW iteration, or does it confine you to the year which you received the software, which in my case was 2016?

If you submit an extension, you keep the same version. You should see a Download section on your student portal where you can choose the latest version.

@Jim WilsonHi there, I requested an extension for my Vectorworks software license two days ago as I need to use the software asap. Do you know when I will receive confirmation if it got accepted?
