In the last couple of weeks I’ve had problems with authorizations after installing New and updates. The response I recieve is > 2 many authorizations, so I checked my account and it only shows 2 checks in the blocks for each software, so how can there be to many authorizations. I’ve been with toontrack for some years with minor difficultys and I’ve had to move/ or reinstall the software on 3 computers during that time, till just recently I added one more computer, which makes 2 total computers I use. Now during this current authorization process, the only way to get support is by email no phone which is totally ridiculous and it takes 2 or more days for a response.
I’ve sent just about 6 emails and they have responded every time with the same response ( Go to FAQ on authorization ), I don’t think they ever read what I wrote, I just keep getting these robot responses and it becomes very frustrating and it seems they don’t care about the customers that have spent alot of money on there products.
Good customer service starts with phone support and not poor email communication support or the lack of irresponsibility. Most problems could be resolved within 5 min on a phone conversation.
I hope toontrack provides that phone number fairly soon, because you have one dis-satisfied customer at the moment.
So, what exactly is your authorization problem?
The way our works is Toontrack gives you 4 total authorizations to freely use. For example, say I authorize my studio computer and a laptop. 2 total authorizations. Then I get a new laptop. Ok. I go to my Toontrack account, select my product, and remove the old laptop (click on the ‘X’ in the top right of the authorization I want to remove). This frees up a slot so I can use the 3rd out of 4 authorizations.
Feel free to ask more questions or clarify what trouble you are having.

What happens if I am using two computers but getting a new laptop every year? So I deauthorize my second slot (the laptop) and then authorize my new laptop (I suppose that would be the third slot). In the second year when I want to install on my next laptop, this would then be the fourth slot. So then, let me see if I’m getting this… ALL my slots would be used up so that once I get a another laptop in the third year I couldn’t use the software? (No matter how many machines I deauthorize?)
Thus, for me the software would only be valid for 2 years. And then what? I need to spend hundreds to repurchase the software I just bought 2 years ago?
No. You contact Toontrack and we will removed inactive authorizations.
