Hello,
We have a machine with avid media composer 7.0.6 and a subscription license for avid media composer 8.8.1. When inserting the System id and activation ID the avid says that the sysid is wrong. Is there any way to activate MC7.0.6 with the MC8.8.1 subscription?Best Regards !
No there is not as subscription based licensing was released with MC v 8.0.
Why do you need to go back?

Hello Marianna !Because all machines are from version 7.0.6 and the customer requested this version
Hmmm
A couple of options....
1. ugrade the 7.x licenses to 8.8.x uisng the special offer for $399 per seat - this expires 3.31.17 and the subscription would be compatible as it is an 8.8.x one
2. Return the subscription and purchase a perptual license and I can backrev it to MC 7.x
3. If they only need it for a shirt time - I can get them a temp for say 30-45 days

Understood !
Thank you very much ! If the customer uses MC8.8.1 will their projects open in 7.0.6?
Yes but there will be some changes as 8.8.x has more features than 7.0.6 so that might be touchy.
