The Catch-22 of tech support
« on: September 18, 2010, 06:30:39 pm »
I already own the Mg Modular V2, ARP 2600V2, Analog Factory, and CS-80V2. All were registered here with Arturia.

Now I've bought The One, with the buy one, get one free deal. Trying to install it, I ran into an eLicenser issue (horrid thing, but that's another topic). I popped over to Arturia's website, tried to login, and was told that they didn't have my e-mail address in their system. They say that if you have trouble logging in, to contact tech support, except that to contact tech support you have to be logged in!

I reset up my account, using the same e-mail address and password. Not enough - to contact tech support you also have to have a product registered. I tried to put in my existing software, but was told that those serial numbers were already registered with Arturia. Well of course they are - under my old account that seems to be deleted! Once again, they say you should contact tech support - except that it won't let me register any products and a registered product is a requirement! If I hadn't had a brand-new, unregistered number here with The One, I wouldn't have been able to contact tech support at all. I don't think I'm being unreasonable to call this ridiculous.

Hi,
Without any synth registered, you still can access the Tech Support by clicking on the "Authorization Troubleshooting" button, then the "Activation Support request" button.
I assume it might not be obvious.
I just processed your case, by the way.
