    Hi,

    Is anyone familiar with the MC 6.5 Student Edition? I just recently received a system ID and an activation ID, but don’t know what to do with them. Does anyone know how to install the provided software? When I try the provided links, they don’t work. Am I supposed to receive anything in addition?

    Thanks,
    Victor Vazquez

    When you launch Media Composer, it will ask if you want to proceed in DEMO mode, or authorize and register the product. Proceed to the registration (third option I think, in the list) and then you’ll be prompted to input the SYSTEM ID and SERIAL NUMBER.

    Then it’ll register and run.

    Thanks a bunch. It’s registered. I didn’t think to install the trial version first. Now I just need to figure out why when I try to open the software it says “Error while verifying your authorization.”

    Copy and paste the numbers in. ONce you copy them, the activation form has the option to “paste from clipboard.” Helps, because I sometimes transpose numbers.
