Hi Tim,



This is an actual Airspace Aware device - I'll try it out on another device and let you know.

The reason I ask is because this appears to be a device-specific issue.

Is this actually an Airbox Aware device, or have you purchased one of the many on eBay that looks like an Aware (i.e. with the orange stripe)?

You can always backup the SkyDemon Mobile program files on the other devices if you want to try 1.4.2 temporarily.

Not working for me on Airbox Airspace Aware device - I've not tried 1.4.2 on other devices as I don't want to end up with a non-functioning system.

Can you confirm the exact make and model of the device in question?

I have exactly the same problem with the 1.4.2 license, also no SkyDemon folder is added to the 'start' menu on installation.

A bit more info. I deleted the mobile app completely and reinstalled - still shows the evaluation version. Deleted the licence file and the unregisted file and did an upgrade. New licence file appeared but still loaded as eval version and created an unregistered file. Deleted and reinstalled to version 1.4 and came back licenced..so I recon there's an issue with 1.4.2 recognising the licence file?

Tim, I too have just upgraded to 1.4.2 and now got the eval licence on my mobile unit. Downloaded new licence key and run the install mobile again and it's stuck on eval and won't go away..

Either the file you placed on there was an old one, or you placed the file in the wrong folder, or your account doesn't have a mobile license. Simple as that! Get in touch via email if you're still stuck, sending us the activation key you're tring to use, and we'll find out which case it is.

Tim - help pls!!  I discovered the same problem today (just before setting out to fly).  I've replaced old licence file with new one downloaded today and followed your advice but still I only get Eval version on mobile (and Aware unit).  I've even tried installing on a new SD but same applies. What next?  I'm off to fly now otherwise it'll be dark!

Richard - was aware of how to load a chart but was surprised that when I only have the one chart on my device that it was not auto-selected by default.



Pink - did that already and it did not work.



Tim - did as you suggested and everything is now good. Strange how I have kept my SD Plan and Mobile up to date all year and you say this license change came in a few versions ago, yet until now it has always worked fine. As I mentioned above with Richard, could it be possible that if SD Mobile has only one chart available on the device that this is loaded by default when the software starts? I would have thought that most users only fly VFR within the bounds of a single chart and so, like me, only have the one available on the device for most of the time.



Thanks again, Smile
