Attempting to run Sibelius (monthly subscription) on my Windows 10 laptop, completed the downloads etc, but am unable to login to Avid Link.
After clicking the Sibelius icon I see a menu with options (Sibelius Ultimate trial, activate, Sibelius first etc) and then Avid Link eventually opens up.
But after entering account details it hangs, displaying "signing in", and then after a couple of minutes it times out, ending with the message "unknown error" and a red cross. My account details work perfectly on the website.
That means so far - it has been a very long 48 hours already - I have not managed to activate my subscription and can only run the 30-day Ultimate trial (which now has only 28 days left).
Any ideas? I have already uninstalled and reinstalled, tried turning firewall off as per a suggestion I saw elsewhere, but no joy.
Avid Link not working, can't login
This is an unofficial forum and nobody from Avid is here. You should ask this question at the official Sibelius Forum: https://www.sibelius.com/cgi-bin/helpce ... ?groupid=3
Avid monitor that site, as it's theirs! If no forum members can answer your question (and they probably will) then one of Avid's staff, usually Ingrid Guce, will help you out.

Indeed. I had already tried there and was waiting for a reply.andyg wrote:This is an unofficial forum and nobody from Avid is here. You should ask this question at the official Sibelius Forum:

Aleksandra from Avid has now sorted the problem for me - basically involved uninstalling, manually deleting a number of residual files, and reloading Avid Link by itself first.

Can you please pass me the solution from Alexandra? I have exactly the same problem, the official support unfortunately does not answer anymore. Although I did get a possible solution, it did not work. I have not heard from Avid since.Aleksandra from Avid has now sorted the problem for me - basically involved uninstalling, manually deleting a number of residual files, and reloading Avid Link by itself first.
Thanks!
