thumperness Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 I just downloaded A:M v16 on my iMac. I'm running mac OSX v. 10.6.8. When I put in my activation code I get an error: "Error writing license file / Application / Animation Master 16.0 / master0.lic" When I cancel it pops up "Bad parameter passed to RLM function (-123)" I have never installed A:M on this machine before. There is no master0.lic in Animation Master 16.0 at this time. What do I do now? Quote
NancyGormezano Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 I am not a MAC user - but I believe you might have to monkey with "permissions" as discussed in this thread. I hope that helps. This seems to be a common problem. I wish it were in some readme text or at least pinned somewhere. Quote

As I said in the posts you linked me too: -download software -do the 'get info' on the "Animation Master 16" folder (not just the application) -Set all the permissions for everyone to 'read and write' (I set this for all users just in case) -Launched A:M and put in the activation code -Happy Dance....

Yep, that is how it has to be done... A:M needs to be able to write to the folder it is in. Otherwise it can't write the licence-file and like that it will look like it never has been activated... See you *Fuchur* Quote
