    Salud!

    Thanks to an e-mail from NI I've solved my crippling activation problem with K4. In case it's useful for others:

    My setup: MacBook Pro, Komplete 4 upgrade from 2 registered NI products.

    1) Delete the [NI product name].plist files (2 instances each) of all K4 apps. Search for them via Spotlight.

    2) Empty the trash.

    3) Reinstall K4 (I didn't have to uninstall it, just delete de plist files. I didn't reinstall the library, either, just the apps). Update the Service Center and activate K4, as usual. Don't run the apps.

    4) Run, say, Guitar Rig 2 update file, and **EASY** install it. When done, **RERUN** the update file in **CUSTOM MODE** and choose **BASIC INSTALL**. Don't reinstall Service Center.

    5) Run Guitar Rig 2. When it says it's in demo mode, just click on Activate. There will appear a SC screen telling you don't own the program. In the Serial Number fields appears a SN that doesn't correspond with the K4 Serial Number. It's your REAL SERIAL NUMBER for this app. Leave it as it is and click on Next. Done.

    6) This way I've updated all Universal Binaries K4 apps with no more activation problems.

    Thanks a lot, NI. :)

    Nope. If you have 2 registered NI products from a certain list (I don't know if Dynamo and Kontakt experience qualify fot this), you get a discount when buying Komplete 4 (from 1300 to 999 euros).

    thats correct, but to be precise: if you own kore or two other NI products, you are eligible to buy an upGrade (not an upDate!) which is offered for a significantly lower price in our onlineshop and at most other retailers.

    check the upgrade offer section of the komplete 4 website to check whether your products qualify for the upgrade!

    best, henning
