very slowly calming down..............
WELL the problem is isolated.
I did get an EMAIL and SERIAL combination when i bought it.
HOWEVER the FIRST RUN of Object Desktop asks for the combination.
Here is WHAT actually happened:
I had a TYPO in my emailaddress. BUT usually the software should have noticed this and said something like "email and serial mismatch" and i could have corrected the typo. BUT INSTEAD some real bright dev decided to BLINDLY activate the serial with the NON EXISTING emailaddress.
Well i wouldnt even stumble over it, if Object Desktop WOULD WORK. Meaning, if it actually WOULD install tools (tried Start 11 v2) but no progress. just en empty bar and an X (guessing the cancel button) and nothing happens.
So i goggled that and it seems comon. A known bug since over a year. Oh loooord. m) 1 year and still unfixed.
However people suggested to ignore Object Desktop and to download the tools directly.
Tried that amd when asked for serial i entered my Object Desktop serial. was refused. Then i tried loging in with username/password. was refused. so i could only install the tool as trial.
The Website itself shows my license and that it is assigned/related to the CORRECT emailaddress.
BUT then i noticed that Object Desktop was logged in with a TYPO-address. i logged out. Tried to relogin, but this time with the corrent email-address. Voila. works, BUT now it pretends that i dont OWN any license, while the website states that i actually do.
JEZ, that is a pretty fucked up piece of software. All because Object Desktop did blindly reassign my license to a NON existing account.
best is that there is no frickin chat or better phone line for PAYING customers. we are blackmailed to use crap forum or jira. we are doomed.
