Activation

The full functionality of Course Designer 3 can be used for free for a thirty day trial period. After the trial period has expired, Course Designer 3 can continue to be used as a free course viewer. However, continuing to use the full functionality of Course Designer 3 after the 30-day free trial period requires the purchase of an Activation License.

Purchasing a Course Designer 3 Activation License

If an Activation License has not yet been purchased, a "Course Designer 3 Activation" dialog box opens automatically when Course Designer 3 opens. If your computer is configured for Internet use, you can go to the web page for purchasing an Activation License by clicking the "Purchase" button on the dialog box.

If the computer on which you are using Course Designer 3 is not configured for Internet use, you can purchase an Activation License by going to the following web page on any computer with Internet access: http://www.coursedesigner.com/purchase . During the process of purchasing an Activation License, you will need to enter the "request code" (15-digit number) that identifies the computer for which you want a license. The request code is displayed on the "Course Designer 3 Activation" dialog box.

After you purchase an Activation License, you will be e-mailed an "activation code" (20-digit number). To finish enabling Course Designer 3's full functionality, enter the activation code into Course Designer 3 as follows:

Copying and Pasting Your Activation Code

  1. In your e-mail application, select the activation code by clicking just before the first digit of the activation code, holding down the mouse button, dragging the mouse to just after the last digit of the activation code, and then releasing the mouse button.
  2. Copy the activation code to the clipboard by pressing Ctrl+C, or by using your e-mail application's Edit / Copy menu item.
  3. Open Course Designer 3, which will automatically open the Course Designer Activation dialog box.
  4. In the dialog box, click in the "Activation code" entry field.
  5. Press Ctrl+V to paste the activation code into the Activation Code field.
  6. Click the OK button to close the "Course Designer Activation" dialog box.

If cookies are enabled on your computer's web browser, the Clean Run web site may be able to automatically send Course Designer 3 the needed activation code. In that case, the "Course Designer 3 Activation" dialog box will not appear when you open Course Designer 3, and you will not need to enter the activation code manually.

Using Course Designer 3 as a free viewer

If you wish to use Course Designer 3 just as a free course viewer, click the OK button on the "Course Designer 3 Activation" dialog box, without entering an activation code.
