I just purchased my copy of 3DWorld Magazine Issue 133 with Carrara 7 Pro.

Now my problem, I have to re enter my name and serial number every time I open Carrara.  Any one else having this problem?  Jan

Maybe a Vista or Win7 problem: turn off your UAC (user account control), sometimes right clicking and running as administrator works too.

Thanks GK, it was that UAC, as soon as I turned that darn thing off, everything worked.  That little bugger sneaks up on me at times.  I'll see when I  turn it back on again, the problem comes back.  Hopefully, it in my register now.  Jan

FYI guys, once the serial number and name finds its way to "I guess" the registry, you can turn the UAC back on again.  Again GK, thanks!  Jan

Now to figure out how to paint in the assembly room.

You can find a lot of tutorials about Carrara in www.carraralounge.com
Some I did my self and I am working in more and more every week for Daz3D about the basics of Carrara and some exercise files too. Have fun!
