    Hi mh187273,

     

    Are you trying to Activate AutoCAD for MAC? If so, once you are in the Activation Page choose the option, "I want to Activate this using the 30 day Period". Once done, launch the software and Activate.

     

    To Activate, please click here for Online Self Help or you can click on the "I still need help button" for further assistance needed.

    Hi mh187273,

     

    Please Private Message me (click on my joane.bonghanoy profile name and then “Send this user a private message) your Serial Number and Request Code.

     

    I will check on it on my end and manually generate the Activation Code.

    I'm having this problem myself at the moment on my Mac...i've visited the autodesk care page that i've been directed to and tried to solve the issue by following its instruction however, i don't see any option to 'installing in trial mode' anywhere? i'm simply asked to 'choose version', 'language' and 'operation system', then theres just a browser download icon.

     

    any help would be great!?

     

    thanks
