Hi! I have been working on installing and running the new Korg Software Pass Release, and have been having some trouble which I haven’t solved yet. I was hoping maybe if I made a thread over here someone could give me some advice to make it work for me. I’m running on a Mac with Os 10.15 Catalina, I had all the previous Korg Releases which all worked great, I deleted them all for the software pass when it got released yesterday though in hopes to run that and get the newer Korg programs (Collection 5 Specifically). The software pass installed fine and booted up fine, however when I use the Keygen copy the locking code and try to activate it with the serial number, it just loads forever, never finishing the activation. I have tried this with network, without network, and have even blocked the Korg Software pass connections using little Snitch as well as Terminal and I come across the same issue no matter what. When I turn my WiFi off, Software pass immediately says I’m disconnected from WiFi but I can activate anyway, however it still continues to load on and on never finishing the activation after I input the Activation Code from the Keygen. I’ve made sure I have no previous Korg releases, files or folders. I’ve restarted my computer a few times in hopes it would help it work correctly. If anyone has any ideas or advice I would be more than happy to hear! Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me out, if I can’t get it solved I may have to just reinstall the previous releases one by one again

Yes I read that when I downloaded the release, which is why I included the info about me following the steps in my note. Thanks anyway..

 

This "sounds" like a anti-virus or file protection scheme at work. If there are these kinds of things running on your system, maybe try disabling them before running the keygen?

I thought it might be because I had little Snitch blocking the connection to Korg however when I switched the rule to allow connections the same thing happens, Software Pass asks for the activation code, I run the keygen insert the locking code, copy the activation code and paste it in. However when I continue on from there it just says “thank you your product is successfully registered in Korg Id” while a loading bar runs underneath it. When I open ARP Oddesey from R2R and try to register it the same thing happens with the software pass.

 

On the windows side trying to block network for the KSP is not enough. You have to make it think there is absolutely no network at all before it will default to offline reg mode. This involves completely disabling all network interfaces (physical and virtual) before running KSP. Probably something similar on the apple side as well... Try disabling ALL network interfaces (virtual and physical) and run the KSP again.

If you're prompted to go offline, go to your modem and unplug the network cable. Plug it back in after you're done.
