[solved] Possible to transfer Ableton while having access to the beta?

Hi,
a couple of days ago I went to the "transfer ownership" page on my Ableton account to prepare for selling my license and noticed, to my surprise, that I have no licences available to transfer. I have a regular Live 10 Suite upgraded from Lite and the only unusual thing about it that comes to my mind is that I have access to the beta program, which the license reflects, but I can't find any confirmation that it would indeed prevent the transfer. Ableton support still has not answered my question for a couple of days now.

So my question is: has anyone with access to the current beta program sold his license, or could check if the license is available to transfer?

One more thing: I have opted out of the beta on centercode, but it had no effect on my license.

Same for me, the license that has the 11 beta can't be selected in the dropdown.

Same here. Suspect its tied to this, with the 11 beta flagging it as NFR?

"NFR and Trial licenses cannot be transferred."

Yes, it's possible but you need to contact support and they'll do the transfer for you. I did it few weeks ago.

Thank you all for confirmation guys.

This, or I can consider it a sign, maybe I don't want to get rid of it after all ;)

Yeah, I had this issue and contacted support to transfer it.

I still have a fully functional beta though, not sure what the deal is there.

I just got a response from Ableton support confirming all this: the transfer is impossible because of the active 11 Beta upgrade. The upgrade can be removed by the support, reversing the license to it's normal state.

Cheers :)
