What's with the crickets?

[JamminFool]

downloaded the v12.1.1 and it says my FREE TRAIL HAS EXPIRED. CLICK HERE TO UNLOCK...

when I do, it says LICENSES UP TO DATE.

but it remains in demo mode.

So the new Authorisation method doesn't work.

You own Pro? If you go to settings > advanced at the top does it say feature set = best or pro?
Are you mac or pc?

i reverted back to 12.0.53 and it recognized my Pro license again. When I check version 12.0.53 in settings>advanced it, of course, says "Pro".

I did not check it in 12.1.1 because i already uninstalled it as it only runs in demo mode for me.

The new authorization system should be seamless for those of us upgrading from 12.0.53. As such, it is not yet ready for prime-time.

edit: i'm on pc.
