Activatingwith a product key: If you are activating with a product key, delete any existing text in the Enter product key field. Copy your product key (from the location that you saved it to from the Find Your Product Key procedure) and paste it into the text box, then click Activate.
If Tableau can't connect to the site that authenticates that product key, it can't complete the activation and you must activate the product offline. Follow the instructions in Activate your product offline to complete the activation process.
If you're installing the product on a computer that doesn't have internet access, or if your company firewall or proxy restricts access to the
licensing.tableau.com site, then you must complete the steps below to finish activating your product. You will need access to another computer that has internet access to complete all the steps in this procedure.
If you're upgrading versions and you've paid your maintenance since the last time offline activation was completed (Tableau Desktop only), contact Tableau Customer Service(Link opens in a new window) via email to get an updated product key before continuing with offline activation.
Launch Tableau Prep Builder. You will be prompted to complete the registration process form to register the product. If you have previously registered a Tableau product, the fields may be populated automatically.
Please note that there are parts of Qt that are only provided under GPL for open source users that will require you to license your application under a GPL compatible license. Qt also ships with third party open source components that might require respective licensing compliancy, if used. See details of other licenses inside Qt .
If the open source license model isn't the right fit for your project or you have concerns about being able to comply to the license terms, contact us. We can help you secure rights to develop, use and distribute your application under a choice of commercial license packages.
Since our funding comes from selling commercial licenses and services, it is essential that we reach commercial readiness as quickly as possible. This can only be achieved through active community participation in our development process. The Qt community plays a vital role in ensuring the stability, richness and quality of Qt. With Qt releases being thoroughly tested by thousands of open source developers around the world, we get the boost needed to support the cost of driving further development of Qt. It ensures the future of Qt. We call this our Virtuous Cycle.
We believe in the Free Software movement where using software comes with certain rights, but also certain obligations. Use of open source licensing gives users four primary degrees of freedom when using Qt applications or devices:
The Free Software community has thrived because of these rules, but there are also developers who never intend to observe or cannot comply to these rules, and thus should get a commercial license. The Qt Company exists to support both sets with the dual offering.
Each Qt user must have their own assigned Qt commercial license. UI Designers, Technical Artists, Software Developers, or Test Automation Engineers might have different kind of Qt licenses, but every single person needs a valid subscription license.
The commercial license of Qt is compatible with the terms and conditions of all the leading application stores and thus typically the best choice for distributing a closed source application in various application stores.
Yes, it is possible to use both LGPLv2.1 and LGPLv3 licensed libraries in the same application for example by having these as separate shared libraries. Doing this does not require changing license in either of the libraries, and it is possible to select a proprietary license for the application, if desired.
If LGPLv2.1 code and LGPLv3 code are in different shared libraries, then they can be used in the same application, and you can license your application with a proprietary license / LGPLv2.1 / LGPLv3 as you wish.
KDE (
kde.org) is an international free software community, founded in 1996, producing an integrated set of cross-platform applications for desktop. KDE is mainly known for its Plasma Desktop environment, which is provided as the default work environment on many Linux distributions. KDE software is based on the Qt framework. In the early days of Qt, the KDE project and community were the biggest driving force in building the developer ecosystem around Qt.
In the very early days, Qt was already dual-licensed, but the source code was available under proprietary open source licenses. Compromises with KDE were sought to ensure that Qt would be available for their use under appropriate open source licensing even if Trolltech (the company that founded Qt) would be acquired or go bankrupt. As a result, the KDE Free Qt Foundation was founded and the KDE Free Qt Foundation Agreement created.
The KDE Free Qt Foundation is an organization with the purpose of securing the availability of the Qt toolkit for the development of Free Software and in particular for the development of KDE software. The Foundation was originally founded by Trolltech and the KDE e.V. (the legal non-profit organization behind KDE) in 1998 and it has a license agreement that ensures the availability of Qt under LGPLv3 and GPLv3 licenses for major desktop and mobile platforms. The license agreement has been updated couple of times over the years, mainly because of acquisitions around Qt or updates to licenses and platforms.
If software using these open source licensed libraries does not fully comply with the license obligations, you will lose your license and related distribution rights. It is also good to note that in most countries copyright infringement is statutory violation, not breach of contract and thus the statutory remedies apply.
You, your customers and end users, unless you are using Qt under a commercial license. LGPL & GPL are copyleft licenses, which means that the license follows with your product to your customer and users or your solution.
LGPLv3 is the current version of the GNU Lesser General Public License. LGPLv2.1 is an older version and not recommended by the Free Software Foundation for new projects anymore. Both licenses have the same intention, namely to protect the freedom of users to use and modify the software licensed under LGPL.
LGPLv3 makes this intention very explicit. You have to provide means to the end user to install a modified version of the library licensed under LGPLv3 and run your software using that modified library. In practice, this for example refers to:
Firstly, you have to note that all Qt open source modules are not available under LGPLv3 . Some modules are available under GPLv3 for open source usage, and e.g. 3rd party components such as Chromium web engine are provided under LGPLv2.1.
The LGPL terms and conditions cannot in any way be restricted by other licensing terms. If an application is not fully complying to the obligations defined in the LGPL, it is not allowed to be distributed at all and you will loose all your rights to the LGPL software.
A few modules in Qt use code from 3rd party open source components such as the Qt WebEngine is using the Chromiun licensed under LGPLv2.1, or Qt Multimedia using the FFmpeg also licensed under LGPLv2.1. When using these modules, you either need to replace the 3rd party modules with your own code or fulfill the corresponding license obligations for that part of your solution, in case of Chromium or FFmpeg the LGPLv2.1.
If you are a Tableau Cloud customer or LBLM (Login-based license management) enabled Tableau Server customer, you do not need to manage Tableau Desktop or Tableau Prep Builder product keys. Tableau Cloud customers and new Tableau Server customers with LBLM enabled, are not issued Tableau Desktop or Tableau Prep Builder keys.
If you are using Tableau Desktop or Tableau Prep Builder without Tableau Cloud or Tableau Server with login-based license management, you need your product key to activate Tableau Desktop and Tableau Prep Builder after the install process is finished.
If you have a creator license (the product key begins with "TC"), the same key activates both Tableau Desktop and Tableau Prep Builder. You can always view your product key in the Customer Portal(Link opens in a new window). For more information about license types, see User-Based licenses(Link opens in a new window) in the Tableau Server help.
If you don't have a product key, try the 14-day Free Trial(Link opens in a new window). If you are a student or teacher, go to the Academic programs(Link opens in a new window) page to request a license and receive instructions about how to download your copy of Tableau Desktop or Tableau Prep Builder.
Sign in to the Customer Portal(Link opens in a new window) page on the Tableau website using your email address and password. The information you need to sign into the portal for the first time is sent to you in a welcome email from Tableau after you purchase(Link opens in a new window) the product.
I purchased a used hard copy of Spore yesterday for my son. Upon trying to install today I realized there is no Registration Key inside the case. Is there a way I can be issued a Registration Key for it? The game was purhcased along side a full hard copy of CREATURE CREATOR which does have it's manual with Registration Key. I could provide the CREATURE CREATOR Registration Key as a reference of association with this copy of "Spore" the full game if that helps? Greatly appreciate help with this, my 8 year old son has been dying for this game for quiet a while and his little heart is breaking. PLEASE HELP! Thanks!
As you mentioned Spore is a used copy, I don't think you will get provided with another key by EA. The code was used by the original owner of the game most likely and if they didn't use it they should provide you with the code.
my spore disappeared from my account , i tried to contact an ea advisor but he said just put all games to display and it will appear but i didnt, i am searching it for days and still you never have an advisor or something that really can do something
