Applicable SongShow Plus Versions:
This article applies to all SongShow Plus 9.x versions.

Thank You for using SongShow Plus!

From time to time you may need to manage the SongShow Plus licenses that you have. 

NOTE: Activation and license Managment requires an active internet connection.  If you do not have this, contact the Support Team for Offline activation.

There are 5 operations available to users for SongShow Plus license management:

  • Activate License 
  • Deactivate License 
  • Switch License 
  • Convert to Projection 
  • Recover License 

If you are not sure this is the correct operation, refer to FAQ55 for additional information.

You will need to know the following to successfully convert your SongShow Plus Workstation license:

  • Your organization's Customer Account ID and password (to acquire the license). If you need help finding this, refer to FAQ010.
  • The name of the license you want to use or create.  This may involve purchasing or creating (if you have a Site License) a Projection license, or reusing an existing one.
    NOTE: If you do not know this information it may be best to contact the Support Team before proceeding.
  • Local system administrator rights (to apply the license) for the machine you are converting.

To convert a SongShow Plus 9.x license from Workstation to Projection on your machine, do the following:

  • SongShow Plus should be in a normally activated state as a Workstation for this operation.  Launch SongShow Plus.
  • From the main toolbar, select License > Convert to Projection...  User will be prompted to confirm - click Yes.
  • SongShow Plus should close and launch the activation tool. 
  • The activation process should detect if you have unused Projection licenses available for use.  If so, you can select Yes to use an existing license or No to create a new one.
  • Follow the steps displayed to complete the license conversion process.  User may have to select the correct license for use.
  • Once selected, continue with the license process. NOTE: Elevation may be required during this process.
  • Once completed, SongShow Plus will automatically restart.

Congratulations, your SongShow Plus license has now changed.

If you are unable to complete this successfully, please contact the Support Team.
