Posts: 8 		Hello,
I have just purchased a license key for Muvizu+ and I get an error code 'E2'. Code indicates that it has a problem upgrading.
I've followed the solution of running the program as Administrator but that doesn't work.
Only minutes later and I am now receiving an error code that my key has been used to it max numbers of activation, but my Muvizu is still in trial mode.

I email support yesterday evening and have yet to hear a response. Is turn around for support tickets usually over 18 hours?

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

The official word is it should work, and if you want to buy one - buy it quick! (Although maybe try a cheap one first to make sure it works?)
The E2 error is on your computer's end so it should be independent of the licencing server. (Although error W2 is the end of the line for the keys now)

A lot of the community are migrating to Zuchat: https://www.facebook.com/groups/zuchat/
Your copy of Muvizu should continue working until you replace the computer without any interaction with the server.

when i got the fear!!!
Am i right in thinking that if i did go ahead and purchase, that would alter my product code and i'd have to click the upgrade button in Muvizu and enter the new code....but it might come back with an error code and i would lose Muvizu for ever and ever.....gulp!!...whimper!!

that's good to know! A lot of others have expressed an interest in buying things but until now nobody knew if it would work! Thanks for letting us know it works!

there have been times in the past when I had run out of activations, so when I bought a new pack, the activation failed. As I recall, Muvizu still worked, but the pack didn't until Jamie increased my number of allowed activations.

I guess it all depends on how willing you are to risk the price of a character pack. If you are already out of activations, there's nobody on the Muvizu side to help you out. But chances are good that you still have activations left, in which case you should get the same results as Ritsmer.

I wish there was a way for us to see how many activations we have left... that would be very helpful right now...

Posts: 5 		Hello,

it is October 2017 and my HD crasched, so I needed to reinstall Muvizu (this time on Win10, no XP anymore..)

I cannot upgrade to plus version again, getting a "w1" error code!

Any clue what to do? I learned they are "Under Administration" and no support, etc. but i really really want to continue this great (purchased) product!

Lots of educational projects ahead...

Help! :-)

I don't remember what causes error W1. I would expect error W3 unless they've changed something on the server. (The new company are working on setting it up.)
At the moment it's a waiting game while Meshmellow (Who recently bought the rights to Muvizu) get everything up and running unless you can recover the Muvizu folder from your dead drive.

Posts: 5 		Thank you very much for the info!, so it is patients with a little bit of hope...

I rechecked today, it's still "W1" as error.

So, getting the folder from the dead drive...that will be expensive.. , but before using such service I will look through my Backup (images), maybe i am lucky and can retrive that folder from a backup...

Do I then copy the complete old folder content over the newly installed on the new HD? Or just a specific (licence?) files?

Anyway, I will inform what happens next, when it happens.

If it's the same computer using the new drive, you should only need to copy over the playplus.lic file to the same place in the new folder and it should reactivate.

You can't fix error W3, you need to wait until the company, who recently bought the rights to Muvizu, get the activation server up and running.

You're 6 months late for the saltyness
Back in April the original company called Digimania went into administration, and only recently has the new company, Meshmellow, taken control. You need to give them time to work everything out since they haven't worked on anything like this before.

Anyone have any idea timeframes or workarounds? I'm glad Marshmellow have taken over but seriously been waiting too long now...

Posts: 5 		Heads up:

Meshmallow shows Muvizu on its Homepage for Siggraph Asia starting Nov. 27th.
http://www.meshmellow.cn/index.html

It's going to be interesting what will be announced there.

My personal (80% confidence) guess:

There could be a Muvizu re-lauch, but old licences will not work.
Actually, why should they, there is probably no obligation to do so in the deal?

And they will need to cover their investment cost for polish Muvizu to run under Win10 (hope they did that!)

If they offer a reasonable upgrade/crossgrade from old->relaunched Muvizu im am "in".

They have said that they will honour previous licences, and you should be able to obtain a new licence by showing your proof of purchase from before.

At the rate they're currently moving, I don't expect this fixed for at least another year. To get a Muvizu licence, you need to email them (Probably paying for the new licence €79) and install their modified version of Muvizu. Their version is a bit buggy so you probably want to port it after to a newer more stable version with this method: http://www.anizu.uk/muvizuactivation

Don`t buy until they fix activation issue and inform it is fixed.
