Some Rack Extensions Online Only?

Posted: 10 Feb 2019

Lately, when I boot up Reason I get the login window telling me that some RE's are online only. What I don't know how to figure out is which ones and why they're online only. Can someone enlighten me as to how to find out which ones and why that's the case? I don't recall buying or getting any RE's that were online only. Thanks

This basically means you are trialing something..?

Log into your account on propshop and click rack-extensions. There you can see which REs has an online license.

Do you have any subscriptions or Rent to Own in progress? Any 30-day trials? Or are you testing a beta version of an RE?

Lately, I've been getting this message immediately after buying and installing a new RE. I'm not trialing, renting, or subscribing to any REs. It seems that during the download/install process, my RE licenses aren't fully being written to my machine. Fortunately, the fix is very simple:

- login to the Prop Shop
- click the little person icon at the upper right and select Account
- select Rack Extensions
- click Sync All and wait for the sync process to complete

Now you should be able to launch Reason without being connected to the internet. Provided of course, you're not trialing, renting, sbscribing to any REs.

Sometimes even when doing this Reason asks me to log in. Then the authorizer starts up again and repeats what it just did at the Propshop. Maybe it's a time thing, it eventually stops.
So not always so even with the above steps. Eventually it fixes itself until I trial something again.

Thanks guys. I suspect I'll need to do the sync thing again. Not trialing, renting or subscribing to anything with any RE's (or anything else for that matter). I buy what I use.
