[EZ Suite - all products] After installation, how do I get my products started (activated)? [Back to top]
This FAQ outlines the typical steps for first time users. By default, this "Ytria Key Management System" process automatically starts right after installation is completed. If you ever need to start this process manually go to the Ytria EZ Suite's "About This Application" page, and click the "Manage Your Keys" button.

License Keys and Activation Codes Explained [Back to top]
License Key
The License Key is sent at the time of purchase (in an email titled: "Ytria.com Purchase."). This is a "generic" key not linked to a specific computer. The License Key is entered into your Ytria software and is required to unlock all product features.
- A License Key can be for: an evaluation, a rental or fully paid software.
- A License Key is NOT required if you want to use the Lite (free) version of Ytria software.
- License Keys are product and version sensitive (see #4 above).
Activation Code
For most users, right after you enter a License Key (or none at all for the Lite version) it will be validated by our server which then automatically sends your software the Activation Code—this all happens quickly in the background during the registration process. If your software can connect to our servers you will never even see the Activation Code.
But, in cases where there are internet connection issues you will have to receive your Activation Code by email (subject: "Ytria: Your Activation Code")—and will have to enter it manually. Note: this Activation Code is only valid for the computer that requested it and will not work on a different computer.
Why does it say "Wrong license key" when I enter it? [Back to top]
First of all, be sure that you copy and paste the license key sent to you by email (or from your Ytria Account) to avoid any typing errors.
Note that license keys are version-sensitive (a scanEZ version 8.x license key, only works with scanEZ version 8.x). Also, sometimes users get our product names confused—download the wrong product, enter the license key and then wonder why the license key doesn't work. This mix-up occurs most frequently between scanEZ and signEZ.
I purchased a license and changed PC. What do I need to install the software on my new PC? [Back to top]
Uninstall it from your previous machine. Follow the same steps (see #1 above) as a new user for the new installation. Just remember to use the username and password you have already created.
Why did I not yet receive my Activation Code by email? [Back to top]
Only users who need to manually enter the Activation Code will receive this email.
After filling in the registration form on our Web site, our server will send an Activation Code to the email address specified by you. If after following the precautions below you still do not receive your "Ytria: Your Activation Code" email—let us know and we will send it to you manually (Note that we cannot create an Activation Code for you...You must fill in the form first...).
If you do not get your Activation Code (usually within 15 minutes), it is likely because:
Incorrect email address - the server will send the message to the wrong email address and you will never get it! Typing errors are extremely common! You can login to your account and change your email address in the Profile section.
Your mailbox is full - our message can't be stored in your mailbox and you won't get it!
Check your junk/spam mail - You or your internet provider use anti-spam programs which blocks the Activation Code email as spam. Please ensure that the following email address is allowed to be received by you: customer@ytria.com.
I got a new computer installed the software and entered my old Activation Code. Why doesn't it work? [Back to top]
Chances are you entered an Activation Code that was specifically made for a different computer—that old Activation Code will NOT work for another computer. Instead, you will need to use your License Key which is always sent to the buyer by email and is stored in the buyer's Ytria Account (login required). See #8 below for more details.
Where are my License Keys? [Back to top]
License keys are ALWAYS sent to the "buyer" by email (it may be you, a manager, a purchaser or a reseller depending on your organization). You can try asking your "buyer" for the license keys.
When informed, Ytria will allow end-users of our products to also find license keys in their own Ytria Account. You can try logging in to your Ytria Account to see if the license keys are there as well. Otherwise you may contact us, and we will do our best to track down the license keys, with your patience and help.
