Requesting a Licence

CSWinnall · Post by **CSWinnall** » 01 Aug 2018, 19:56

Hi RedNoah

I have been using your excellent program for years but i have not had the need to post in the forums as i have always been able to find the answers there so i cant pm you.

I purchased FileBot from the windows store on 30th March 2017 but recently i have had to switch to Linux so i have just discovered your new licence model. I read that you might be giving Windows Store purchasers a 1 year licence if so i would really appreciate it just this once.

I look forward to hearing from you

Sure. Please PM me your Microsoft Store proof of purchase details (e.g. screenshots).

Hi,

I'm in the same boat. I purchased a license via the Microsoft Store on 3/2/18, and would like to xfer/use it on my Synology instead. (No license was required on Syn at that time so I purchased the MS license to support the product!)

Can you help? I can forward the transaction ID, emails, whatever...

Thanks,

Steve

Sure, can you email or PM me a screenshot of your Microsoft Store purchase confirmation via Google Drive or Dropbox please? I'll also need Name + Email for issuing you a license.

Hi!
I'm in the same boat I guess, I purchased a filebot in appStore, Now I've switched to windows and want to continue using Filebot.
But it appears that I cannot send you a PM with my proof of purchase, since I'm a newbie((( What should I do?

jalliot · Post by **jalliot** » 21 Aug 2018, 17:37

Hello rednoah,
Same situation for me unfortunately (cannot PM you yet because of lack of post) but I'd be glad to send you proof of purchase in order to get the licence for my syno.
Thanks.

Sure, I'll need name / email / purchase confirmation screenshot or pdf shared via google drive please.

Dear RedNoah, i switched from Mac where I had a lifetime licence of FIlebot (purcahased via Mac store) to Windows PC and would like to transfer that licence to a PC. Please assist.

i guess this is a good a place to post this as any. in the plex forum on redeit they suggest i pm rednoah to get a key so i can tryout filebot. i never got to test it when it was free cause since win 10 1803 it would never run, now with the latest version of filebot it actually runs but won't actually change the file names. so i'm requesting a temp code so i can actually test fb. i would of pm'ed but not having posted yest i could not. thanks

The new FileBot 4.8.2 release allows you to evaluate FileBot without a license:
https://www.filebot.net/#download

Actually moving / renaming files is not possible without a license, but that can't not work anyway. All the interesting bits like matching and custom formats can be evaluated to your hearts desire.

Are you perhaps using a custom format that ends with {fn} maybe?

stevenem · Post by **stevenem** » 03 Sep 2018, 23:10

Hey rednoah, I haven't posted in the forums yet so I can't PM either. I purchased a license from the Mac App Store a while back. A few months later I got a Synology NAS, and set up Filebot to use there instead. Is it possible to transfer to a license I can use on the NAS?

Post by **rednoah** » 04 Sep 2018, 09:45

No. MAS purchases are independent of the new universal license system.

If you PM me your name / email / proof of purchase shared via gdrive then I can issue a free courtesy license.

Hey I would like to get a license for linux too. I did purchase on the windows store. However I can't seem to PM you. Perhaps a post limit? Can you please PM me?

Post by **rednoah** » 20 Sep 2018, 05:50

Now that you have 1 public post, you can PM me name / email / proof of purchase (png / pdf shared via gdrive).

Transferring licenses from Apple / Microsoft owned platforms is not possible. I can offer a complimentary 1 year universal license though. PM me name / email / proof of purchase (png / pdf shared via gdrive).

Hello,

I have purchased FileBot from the Microsoft Store on 7th May 2018 and it was working perfectly. But I had to reinstall my Windows 10 last week and since, I can't install FileBot from the Microsoft Store anymore. It's still marked as purchased but I have each time an error 0x80070005.
I saw that now we can buy a license for a version out of the Microsoft Store, I would like to know if I could have my license for this version to finally be able to reuse this great software?

I have the invoice of my purchase on the Microsoft Store if you need proof

Thank you in advance,
Benesuddy.

TIA

Post by **rednoah** » 03 Oct 2018, 12:43

Yes, you may request a complimentary 1 year universal license. Please PM me your name / gmail / MAS proof of purchase details (preferably shared via gdrive).

PMs are enabled now you have at least 1 public post.

Hi there.

I've purchased through the Microsoft store, and would like to try it on my VPS.

It doesn't have microsoft store unforunately.

Can I have a trial license, to see if it works?

Yes, please PM me your name / gmail / MS Store purchase confirmation (shared via gdrive). That being said, you can evaluate FileBot without a license.

If you have purchased FileBot from the Microsoft Store, then you can simply install FileBot via the Microsoft Store, as long as you log in with the same Microsoft account, no standalone / universal / direct license required.

I purchased a lifetime license directly from the filebot site two years ago but due to a crash, I no longer have my license info. Is it possible to resend my license into via email?

Post by **rednoah** » 22 Dec 2018, 19:05

The new license system was introduced ~4 months ago. Please send me a PNG / PDF of your purchase confirmation.

genehil · Post by **genehil** » 23 Dec 2018, 01:30

I was hoping you could check using my email address... (I have looked everywhere in my GMail but to no avai) But if not, MyBad... If it cannot be recovered, I'll just register another lifetime.

Please Advise,
Gene Hilsheimer

Post by **rednoah** » 23 Dec 2018, 03:21

I could look into it, but I'll need more information, since I have no idea what you purchased. Maybe purchased via the Windows Store? Maybe a PayPal donation for the old donation-ware version?

The new universal license model wasn't introduced until mid-2018 so if its indeed 2 years ago, then you couldn't have purchased a universal license.

genehil · Post by **genehil** » 23 Dec 2018, 20:47

It was probably in early January or February 2017 I would guess. I built a Plex server around that time and found a need to be able to rename my files the easy way, using your FileBot. If you can't find it using my email address (The same one I registered for the forums with) then not big sweat. I will reorder a universal and chalk it up to experience... and keep better notes.

Post by **rednoah** » 23 Dec 2018, 20:52

Oh well, it's Xmas, so just hit me up with name + gmail for a complimentary license:

Post by **rednoah** » 10 Jan 2019, 04:20

FileBot on the Mac App Store has always been available and has never been changed or made unavailable, so if you've purchased it, then that'll be stored in your Apple account, and you'll be able to install it anytime as long as you're logged in with the same Apple account that made the purchase:

Did you purchase FileBot directly via this website, or via the Microsoft Store?

If you have purchased via the Microsoft Store, then there is no license file that can be recovered, as your purchases are stored in your Microsoft account. If you install via the Microsoft Store, the Store will take care of everything, so you don't have nor need a license.

This is a windows store problem... so nothing to do with filebot
so search 0x80070005 windows store

Logging off and on again within the Windows Store application is sometimes a solution for a variety of issues. Might work. Might not.

Google is your best friend when it comes to Microsoft Store issues. But contacting Microsoft Support is also worth a try, since it's ultimately an issue on their end.
