    Note: After clicking OK the User Information dialog will appear within which you should provide the User Name and Organization for the licensed user.

If you've purchased a DPL group or site license, you won't need to use a Serial Number or Install Key as directed above. Users with these license types will be provided with a DPL license file that should be placed within a specific directory on your machine to activate. The license file will be attached to an email with detailed instructions on how to activate DPL using the file.

If you receive an error while activating, please carefully check that you've entered the serial number and installation key correctly. If you're still receiving the error send an email to support@syncopation.com that includes the wording of the error message and a screen shot of the activation dialog with our license information entered; use the Alt + Prnt Scrn keys, and use Ctrl + V to paste it into the email.

After activating, you are ready to start using DPL. We encourage you to register your license of DPL online with Syncopation. If you choose not to register initially, you can do it later by selecting Help | Resources | Register.
