Freeman21 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Hi there, please could a mod make this a sticky at the top of the forum as I know a lot of members are asking about it:http://deactivation.fm2009.softanchorinsight.com/ Thanks I'm sorry but I didn't understood.

ilFuria.AWT Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I have a question: should I deactivate a copy on a computer, will I be able to re-activate the game on the same computer later on? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodster Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I have a question: should I deactivate a copy on a computer, will I be able to re-activate the game on the same computer later on? That's not necessary m8 as you can install and uninstall FM 2009 on the same computer an unlimited amount of times. Deactivating is only useful if you install the game on a different computer which you have 5 seats/computers to install FM 2009 on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardiovascular Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 When you un-install 09, you get the "unistall license for this PC?" does this remove the seat? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sovstar Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I've been checking this since Friday and get the same 'unable to look up devices' message each time. Lovely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VMX Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Does this actually work for anyone? At all? I enter my CD Key and get the "Unable to lookup devices" thing... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VMX Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Can anybody test it please? You just have to enter your game key here: http://deactivation.fm2009.softanchorinsight.com/ and press "Get Active Computers". You won't perform any de-activation by doing that. If it works, you'll be taken to a list with the computers your game is installed on, where you would be able to de-activate any of them if you wanted to. It'll just say "Unable to lookup devices" for me, and I'd like to know if anyone is able to use it, or it's just *another* broken thing regarding this year's activation... Thank you.

VMX Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I've installed the game 2 times in 2 days already, I know I'm entering the key properly.

CrashOverride Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I would imagine that the people who need to fix it are probably off work until after new year. Sega/Soft anchor will have skeleton staff in and this is problaby something that needs a couple of people to diagnose resolve test and deploy. Give them a little time next week and im sure we can all check our seats Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
