Melodyne suddenly reporting authorization conflict

[David Polich]

Put an instance of Melodyne 5 editor plugin on a track I wanted to tune today. Got this message:

"To use Melodyne, please deactivate it on a second computer that is using it."

Then I got taken to Celemony's website, where I was asked to login, then I see another message saying please deactivate Melodyne on my I-Mac..which is weird because I never authorized it on my I-Mac. I went ahead and clicked on "Deactivate" my I-Mac, then my browser froze and I had to quit, and now Celemony's website is not loading.

Now I cannot launch an instance of Melodyne in DP at all..just get the beach ball.

Anyone else experienced a problem like this recently?

When I updated Melodyn to the latest version yesterday, it failed initial DP VST Scan. I re-scanned, and all looks well, but I haven't actually USED it in a project as yet.

Live show this evening, but I'll try to test further in the next few days. Others will probably beat me to it.

It worked fine fo me after the re-scan.

Melodyne received an update a few days ago.

If you have an older version, launching Melodyne is supposed to open a web page giving you the opportunity to do the update before continuing. You can update or cancel. Drove me nuts till I figured that out.

I'm wondering if you have encountered a glitch in that process.

Well, the Ceremony website is still down as of 8:16 PST. I cannot get Melodyne to instantiate on a track.

Guess this will have to sort itself out, hopefully their website will be back up soon and I can open a support ticket.

Melodyne website JUST came back online about 1pm today (12-20). As usual, I launched an instance of Melodyne in DP, got the "please activate" message, clicked on that, took me to the website, I logged in, selected "Activate" for my Mac Pro, and was successful.

Man..what a mess.

It confused me this time. Melodyne had been stuttering a bit and the update process did seem a bit convoluted. It seems better after the update.
