Hi, I just downloaded and installed NLP on a new mac using my license key from when I purchased it a couple years ago. Everything seemed fine, but in LR when converting it says I’m in trial mode with 12 conversions left. How do I get it to work as a purchased plugin again? I’m on OS Monterey 12.1 btw.
Cheers!
Christian

Nevermind. I went through the activation process a couple more times and suddenly it worked.
Sorry!
