Can't Authorize DP7 on a Macbook Pro 2014

Post by Avishai »

Bought the new MBP 15" 2014 top of the line and need to authorize my DP7.12 CD.
Motu tech links was advising me to use another Mac in a target mode. Sure thing, I can see the CD mounted but DP authorization can not access the cd for a "ping".
Next, went to the Apple store to buy a SuperDrive and same thing happened again. I can see the cd but DP authorizer can't authorize.
Next, try another external cd drive made by LG, same issue.

At this point I am unable to authorize the software which I paid for.
I am curious to see what Motu tells me this time I should do.
Any ideas out there?
I am frustrated...

You must update to 7.24 to authorize in OS 10.7 or later. Download and run the updater from MOTU. Then any DP 7.x CD will work.
