Setup : Maya 2014 - full suite on a Windows 7 / 64 machine. Standalone license. No recent changes to the computer hardware. Software side saw an install of the Maya 2015 beta preview a few weeks ago.
The problem : a few days ago, Maya started asking for activation every time I started it. I had deadlines so I powered though the weekend, too busy to try and fix it. I just kept activating. By this morning, I had hit my reactivation limit.
So, I finally spent a morning uninstalling/reinstalling Maya and I got a new activation code. Unfortunately, it did the same thing - Maya worked immediately after activation, but after I closed and restarted Maya, it asked for activation again. Maya seems to be "forgetting" that it has been activated.
Also realizing this affecting the whole suite - 3ds Max and Mudbox are also affected. My old Maya 2013 suite still works.
Dug through help pages the whole afternoon, nothing seems to be directly applicable. Any thoughts?
