Do I need to buy a separate license for the Mac and Windows Version?
No. The license key you purchased will work both for both. You don't have to purchase a separate license for Windows if you bought the mac version, and vice versa.
I split my work across two computers. Can I install on both using my single-user license?
The Indigo Studio license is tied to the user, and not the computer. Install and use Indigo Studio on any computer "you" use. However, if we notice a large number of activations using the same license, we may contact you to verify this behavior.
What is a perpetual license and how is better than a regular license?
An Indigo Studio license enables you as a user to unlock and use all product features beyond the standard 30-day trial period. It is sold to you as a perpetual license. That means the product you buy is yours to keep and use FOREVER!
With the perpetual license, however, you get more! In addition to the product, the license qualifies you for any product updates we ship during that year (could even be a new major version of the product) and a year of free customer support. Updates may include new features, bug fixes or both.
Let's use the following graphic to understand this licensing model better.
Say for instance, when you purchased the license key, the most current version of Indigo Studio was version 4 (Update 1). With the perpetual license model, you also get free updates all way till version 5 (update X).
Another way to say this is that you will get all updates for the last major version released during your active year of subscription. If you wish to get version 6 of the product, you will have to renew your subscription. Renewing will also extend customer support for an additional year. If you do not renew, the product is still yours, and you can keep using Version 5 (update X) forever. It does not stop working :).
In a nutshell, a perpetual license usually implies what you bought plus more! So don't worry. It's a good thing!
Please note that the version numbers I'm using in this graphic are only to help explain better the concept of our perpetual license. It does not signify the exact number of updates or our roadmap for the product.
Does my license include unlimited free sharing of prototypes on Infragistics Servers?
As stated in the software license agreement, prototypes will be available via its URL for a minimum of 12 months from the date of posting on Infragistics Servers. You can read our most up-to-date license agreement here. Prototype hosting is discussed in more detail under section III.A.
How long will I be able to receive product updates and what does that include?
We have tried to explain this under the question "What is a Perpetual License".

How do I convert from a trial version to a full version of the product?
To convert, you will first need to purchase a license key from the product website http://www.infragistics.com/products/indigo-studio.
With key in hand, launch Indigo Studio, and look for the "Convert to Licensed Version" option in main menu. Paste in the key, and activate! If your trial has expired, you will see a way to enter the key on the product launch screen.
