Black & Bleu™ requires a LIcense Key to convert it from a Demo to an unlimited use commercial product.
If you purchased the CDROM, you will find the License Key is inside the CDROM case. If you bought the "Electronic Version" the key was provided to you via EMail or traditional mail.
The License Key will give you unlimited use of the current version of Black & Bleu™. It will ONLY be requested by Black & Bleu™ when you use the application for the first time.
In certain cases the License Key will work with other versions of Black & Bleu™ as well. Refer to the file "Read about Black & Bleu™" for more details about how our version numbering system works.
The key is a collection of case-sensitive letters separated by dashes. There are NO NUMBERS in the License Key. The letters are in 5 groups of 4 letters each with the dashes in between. Here is an example:
aaaa-BBBB-ccCC-DDdd-eEeE
You MUST enter the letters and the dashes EXACTLY as they are. Case is important as well as the dashes. Don't pad the key with extra characters such as blanks.
If you don't have a key, you can still use Black & Bleu™ for a limited number of times before it expires.
NOTE to people who own Black & Bleu™ v1.0: We used Aladdin Systems as our order desk for the v1.0 release of Black & Bleu™. The license key used for that release doesn't conform to the "no numbers" rule. Also, Aladdin Systems has disbanded their order desk. All of our orders now go through Kagi.
