How to start the transfer of a stand-alone license.
A license is exported when the License Transfer Utility moves a product license from a computer to the online Autodesk server.
The license can be exported as public or private:
- Public means that anyone using the same serial number and their own user ID and password can import that license.
- Private means that the license can only be imported with the same serial number, user ID, and password that were used when it was exported.
If it has not been imported, a private license becomes public after 14 days.
- On the computer where you want to export the license, start the License Transfer Utility.
- Windows 7: Click Start menu
Autodesk [Product Name] License Transfer Utility. - Windows 8: Right-click Start screen All Apps License Transfer Utility – [Product Name]
- Windows 8.1: Start screen Down Apps Autodesk License Transfer Utility – [Product Name]
- Mac OS X: Open Applications/Autodesk/[Product Name]/Licensing/License Transfer Utility.
- Linux: Open a shell and run the following command, where <productKey> is the product key for a specific product, not a suite:
/opt/Autodesk/Adlm/R9/bin/LTU <productKey> 2015.0.0.F -d "SA"
Note: If your product is installed on Mac OS X or Linux as part of an Autodesk Suite, you may find a shell script such as LTU.sh in the same folder as the application. This script will start LTU and provide the correct product key. To use the script, run it in Terminal, select the language of the user interface, and then follow the remaining steps of this procedure.The Export the License dialog box displays the Autodesk product name and serial number.
