AlexSawaya Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Best regards The following is happening to me, update vision 2021, I was able to open an old file without problems, when I want to change from the dmx provider to grandma, it tells me that I need the dongle. I put it in, and it tells me that my Service Select is expired, but I have it active. Even now I can't open the 2019 or 2020 version, only in demo form. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? From already thank you very much. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee klinzey Posted November 2, 2020 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted November 2, 2020 @AlexSawaya Please contact support directly. From the error messages the dongle driver may have failed to install properly or your dongle could have failed. Quick solution is to run the Vision 2021 installer again and see if the dongle driver install succeeds. (All versions of Vision use the same 3rd party dongle driver, so if fails for one it will fail for all versions.) Quote Link to comment
Jesse Cogswell Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 I had a problem with this in Vision 2021 as well. I ran the Update Dongle command in the Help menu and restarted Vision and it seemed to take care of the problem. Quote Link to comment
AlexSawaya Posted November 4, 2020 Author Share Posted November 4, 2020 @klinzey Hello, I have reinstalled the 2 of 3 versions that I have, and the same thing happens. I wrote to the support and I am waiting for the answer. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee klinzey Posted November 4, 2020 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted November 4, 2020 @AlexSawaya I suspect your dongle may have died. They will probably give you some additional steps to try but if you want a quick answer and you have time it's best to phone support. 1 Quote Link to comment
AlexSawaya Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share Posted November 5, 2020 @klinzey Thanks for the info, and it's really the last thing I wanted to hear. (Dead dongle). I have been stranded outside my country of residence since March 11 and due to the pandemic without work. I think I should wait for them to respond to me by mail. Anyway I keep doing tests, and if I get any change, I report it here. Thanks and keep safe. Quote Link to comment
