Activation and Registration

PhotoTools 2.5 will operate as a trial version for 30 days from when it is installed. It will place a subtle watermark over the results in Photoshop when in trial mode.  If you have purchased PhotoTools, you will want to license it so you can continue to use it past the trial period. When you install PhotoTools it will prompt you to license it. Simply click on the license button and enter your license code. Your license code can be found in your order confirmation email if you purchased PhotoTools electronically or on a sticker on the information card in the boxed version. Your license code allows you to install PhotoTools on two computers. When you enter your license code, PhotoTools communicates with the onOne activation server and will activate your software. Your software must be licensed and activated to function past the trial period. If the computer you are activating does not have access to the internet, you can manually activate your software by following the manual activation instructions in the license dialog.

If you wish to move your copy of PhotoTools from one activated computer to new computer you will need to deactivate it first. Deactivation is a simple process. Simply open PhotoTools and select deactivate from the Help menu. This will deactivate PhotoTools on the current machine, allowing you to install and activate it on another machine.

If you lose your activation code, have your computer stolen and can not deactivate it or have other activation issues please contact onOne customer service at 888-968-1468 or visit the support section of the onOne software website http://www.ononesoftware.com/support.
