Chris you have a gen 2 iLok. I got mine earlier than 2011 with
ProTools 9 also and it ws a gen 2. The really small ones are gen 3.
Also Gen 1 is no longer supported by a lot of licenses so it’s safe to
assume you have a gen 2.

While we're on this subject, what happens if God forbid, I'm
activating something, and have a power serge, or something just weird
glitches, and my iLok gets toasted? Would Avid replace the asset? I
know they wouldn't replace the iLok. That's understandable. I
wouldn't expect for them to do that, but would they at least! replace
the asset, provided I was willing to get another iLok at my own
expense? If so, I might go ahead and order me another one just to
have as a backup.
Quite frankly, I want to upgrade my iLok anyway, as I think I might
have the 1st generation. I know this as, when Ron gots his iLok, I
felt his, and man! it's physically dementionally in size much
smaller, and his also doesn't have the little protection cap over the
USB end of the apparatus.
I got my iLok included in the box with the DVD's to my m-Audio Fast
Tracks C400 interface back in 2011 when I ordered from Sweetwater. I
basically got the ProTools 9 MPower bundle with the interface. This
is why I'm saying, I think I have the 1st gen. Also, it's already
half full with licenses I need, I do believe. If I remember this
correctly, Slau, you or someone else will have to confirm this, but
didn't the 1st gens only give you 100 assets? I'm already up to 40.
So, yeah...
Chris.

My understanding is that the replacement of licenses is up to the
discretion of the developer. To me, it's kind of a no-brainer to use
an iLok key for everything if possible. That said, it's also been
convenient to just throw a license on the drive to free up a USB
slot if necessary. Horses for courses, I guess.

Hi, What would happen if your hard drive crashed with the license
on it and you had no backup made could the license be restored? If
say I did have a full backup could I just restore everything back
to the new drive? I am just asking so I would know what I would
have to do if something happened. Nick Gawronski

Subject: Re: Question about iLoks and the iLok manager
That's not correct. What it requires is an Internet connection
which can certainly be wireless. The connection can technically
even be over an iOS device. What it does not require is the iLok key
itself but an Internet connection is the key, so to speak.HTH,

Slau,
Thank you for your help. That's pretty much what i suspected for
the answer, but I definitely do appreciate your confirmation on
the matter.
Have a wonderful rest of your day.

There are 3 main variables to iLok licensing as it relates to
location and they are determined by the developer. It's up to the
developer to determine whether a license can
be activated to an iLok, a computer and the cloud. Some
developers allow all three while some only allow one or two. The
third generation iLok can store at least 512
licenses if not more. I'd imagine there's no theoretical
maximum for computer activation slots. One disadvantage with
computer activation is that you have to remove all
license activations if you're formatting the drive. Apart
from that, portability is a big factor for some users.HTH,

For reasons which go beyond the scope of this e-mail, and would
get way too long-winded for me to attempt explaining, I won't bore
you with why I ask this question. I know
typically, this isn't something most people probably would do, all
be it the option's there, but I have to ask at least this much...
I know that 1 iLok costs around $50USD. Obviously, I already have
one which I'm using with ProTools, as well as some plugins which
require it. I see however that when
activating a plugin through the iLok manager, I either can put the
asset on my physical iLok USB dongle, or I can actually put it
locally on my mac itself.
I guess my main question is, like there is on an iLok dongle, is
there a limit on how many assets will fit if I was to store them
instead on my mac? Also, having this
option, does that mean that technically speaking, as long as I
don't plan to move around from one system to another, I could
theoreticly store the asset there instead of on
my actual dongle itself? Finally, what would be the disadvantages
aside the obvious of no portability from one system to another of
having it stored locally on my mac
instead of the key itself?
Chris.
