Sorted it out:

When I installed the new software I have to give a keys location so that I could generate a keyspath file under C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\ies\apps\Keys\keyspath.txt

I then alter the licence path in keyspath.txt to the network \\ your network keysfile ...

Hi Vajindar,

I have sent the report to support@ies.com

The pin seems to have been disloged. The network chap is running both 6.2 and 6.4, so its me.

I would like to know how the network license operates, do I have to have the network pin installed and then the keyspath.txt file altered to the ...

Hi,
Yesterday I installed the 6.4 I cannot access the software. Currently we use 6.3, I get 'Access Denied' which will not close even if I click on it many many times. It has to be shut down via the processes in task manager. We use a network licence and I do have access to the network path that ...

Hello all,

I am having trouble getting the sketchup model to load into VE Pro. Using SketchUp Pro 8 and the latest plugin. Even the most basic box, after room creation and location is set does not appear in VE pro. Not sure whether anyone else is having issues with this. The licences are still ...

Hi Again Phil,

Just reinstalled SketchUp 7 and it still crashes on start up. Might just give it a miss on this machine. Its a shame because as an experienced Sketchup user I can get far more out of the model using Sketchup. I find ModelIt a bit less friendly to use.

Thanks for the info on V-ray ...

Hello,

I have posted on the plugin for Sketchup 8 and am looking at the workaround by using SU pro 7.0.4747 on win 7 32bit. downloded MSxml 6 just in case. Removed all plugins even the default ones, Ocean Examples and Utilities so I only have IESlink plugin ruby and the ies link folder. I have ...
