Chrispick, did you have to re-authorize any of your 3rd party plugs upon going to Tiger???

Yeah, I'm wondering about reauthorizing also. I'm making the change to 10.4.2 as I post. I'm guessing I won't have to reauthorize anything but that's just wishful thinking.

I had to reauthorize all of them, but that's because I jumped to a whole new computer system when I bumped up to Tiger. New hard drives, processors, the works.

That said, it wasn't a painful process. Most companies offer multiple authorizations, although many don't advertise that fact. In the single case where I'm locked into a one computer/one authorization situation, with Audio Ease's Altiverb, I explained my situation to them via email and they granted me another authorization within 24 hours.

If you're set up to obtain authorizations via internet, you shouldn't run into too much inconvenience. At least, that was my experience.

I should add that I needed to upgrade a few apps when stepping up to Tiger, and I found that process to be as unencumbering as re-authorization.
