To change the password on a computer:

If you were issued a temporary LAW license key, the license needs to be entered directly into the C:\Program Files (x86)\Law50\law50.ini to access CloudNine LAW.

Once you obtain a full LAW license key, then remove the license from C:\Program Files (x86)\Law50\law50.ini and save the file.  CloudNine LAW will then use the license server configured in the LAW Configuration Utility.

When a temporary license is in use, the LAW Profile Manager dialog box is not displayed when starting the LAW application.

1.Setting the license server in Configure Environment in the LAW Configuration Utility needs to be done prior to launching LAW.  

If a valid license server computer name has been entered, the LAW Profile Manager dialog box opens.

If a license key is not found on the specified server, a message will appear stating that the key was not found and will ask to try another server. If this happens click Yes, and then follow the prompts to change the license server.

Each time you start LAW, instead of selecting licenses singly, you can load a license profile.

1.Start the LAW Profile Manager.

2.Check out licenses by means of a license profile by selecting one of the following:

•<Any Available Licenses> Checks out one of each available license. These licenses will not be available to other workstations using the same license key.

•<Custom> You can check out specific licenses based on their tasks. For example, if you need to scan documents, you can select just the Scan license. Click OK to open the list of licenses.

•User defined. Any user-defined license profile is listed below the two system profiles. To create a user-defined license profile, see the To create custom profiles section in this topic.

3.Select the licenses needed for the session and then click OK.

Only the selected licenses are checked out and available on that workstation. If one or more license modules cannot be checked out, a message box appears stating which licenses could not be acquired. This message will not appear if the CD Publishing license could not be acquired.

1.Start the LAW Profile Manager.

2.Click Add.

If the Add button is grayed out, switch to administrative mode to enable it. On the File menu, click Switch to Administrative Mode and then enter and confirm the password, click OK twice and then click Add.

3.In the Add New Profile dialog box type the name of the new profile and a description.

4.Select the licenses to include in the profile.

5.To set this profile as the default profile for the current user, select Default Profile.

6.Click OK.

The new license profile is displayed in the LAW Profile Manager dialog box. If selected as the default profile, it is automatically highlighted.

7.To automatically check out licenses and bypass the LAW Profile Manager, select the profile as the default profile. Then deselect Prompt for profile when starting LAW in the LAW Profile Manager dialog box.

Hiding a profile can be useful to safeguard against inadvertently selecting the wrong profile. For example, the LAW Profile Manager populates the Profiles area with two system profiles <Any Available Licenses>, and <Custom>. To prevent users from checking out more licenses than needed, these profiles may be hidden.

1.Start the LAW Profile Manager.

2.Click File, and then click Switch to Administrative Mode. Enter the administrative password, click OK, and then OK again.

3.Right-click the system profile to hide and then click Hide System Profile.

•Right-click anywhere in the Profile area and then click Restore Hidden Profiles.

You must switch the LAW Profile Manager to administrative mode before you can perform several administrative functions, such as working with licenses and working with profiles.

One way to switch to administrative mode is to start the LAW Profile Manager, and then, on the File menu, click Switch to Administrative Mode and then type the administrator password. Alternatively, there are many features that require you to provide the administrator password before continuing. Switching to administrative mode enables you to:

•Add, edit, and delete profiles.

•Refresh licenses to add any newly purchased licenses to the software product key.

•Enter the advanced view of the LAW Profile Manager.

•Hide/restore system profiles.
