Can you please confirm if this license is for 2024 or 2025? I have both installed on my mac computer and twice I have had difficulty opening files - it will state that I do not have a license and then will open with 2024 and then states that the file was created with a newer version. And then other times I am able to open it with a 2025 version.
It is concerning, because I have deadlines for work and do not want to run into issues with opening it over the weekend
it’s a subscription valid with all versions since 2019.
you can activate it twice at the same time, so it’s ok for you to use 24 and 25 on the same machine.
- i’m gonna assume it doesn’t state that you don’t have a licence, rather that you have too many activations and need to deauthorize them ?
- the fact that it tells you in 24 that it was made in a newer version is not an issue. if you read the message, it says that working in your older version might result in losses of some data. essentially the things that were added in 25. but since 2021, the sketchup files wan be opened in sketchup regardless of the version.
if upon opening sketchup 25 you have a weird message about activations, you can start by opening sketchup 24, then here log out.
then in SU25 log out and log back in. if it’s not enough, there are ways to force a massive deauthorization and start from scratch.
