That's it for the old computer. In the License section of PBU Preferences, your duration should now be Trial.


Open PBU on your new computer and follow the steps to activate PBU from the first section of this tutorial. You can find your redeem code in your original email when you purchased PBU, or on the Event Manager webpage in the Photo Booth Upload Licenses section.


Please Note: You cannot transfer a license from an INFINITE or VENTURE booth. Only licenses purchased for the web version of Photo Booth Upload can be transferred. Licenses included with our booths are pre-activated and non-transferable. If you sell your booth, the new owner must pay a license transfer fee of $699. The fee will cover the cost of disabling the old license, creating a new license (so it can be paired with the new owner's account), installing it, and providing future tech support.


Congratulations!  You have successfully Activated and transferred a license.
