-
The activation code is for another product. This means you are trying to activate CopyTrans with your CopyTrans Contacts code or CopyTrans Photo with your CopyTrans TuneSwift code… You get the idea.

The activation code you entered is too short/too long. Double-check the activation code for missing/extra characters.
-
Your first name, last name or activation code code is mistyped. Please copy-paste the activation details you received into the respective activation fields.
-
The activation code has expired. If you purchased some time ago, you may have an outdated activation code, use the license page to obtain an activation code for the latest version.
-
The activation is no longer valid.
The following reasons may cause our programs to refuse your activation code:
-

I receive a message “the code you entered is for another language”
When you receive a message “The code you entered is for another language” this means that you have purchased a license from one of our non-English online stores (i.e. the Spanish, French, German, or Japanese store). 
If this is the case, please download and install the respective version that you purchased from by clicking on one of the below links, then try to activate once again:

Spanish version -> Instalación

French version – > Comment installer les logiciels

German version -> Wie installiere ich die CopyTrans Programme
-
Japanese version -> インストール方法
My license is valid, but I’m asked to purchase again
You’ve got a pop-up saying that the 2 years of updates that came with your purchase have now expired. But that can’t be right since you bought yesterday/month ago/a year ago.
Don’t panic – your activation codes are still valid and you are eligible for free updates till the end of your two-year period.
All you have to do for the software to work is reactivate it:
-
Close the pop-up window and go to “More” and then choose Activate.
-
The pop up will be gone and you will see the familiar setting – your full name, last name, and the activation code.
-
Re-enter the code. We strongly recommend you copy and paste all the data straight from the invoice, including your first and last name.
-
Tap on the Activate button and enjoy your full version of CopyTrans software.
TIP: If you don’t have your invoice anymore, you can retrieve your activation codes from here:
