I severely doubt anyone here can help you, but you never know.

they give all of their software away for free anyway, give them an email and im sure they will give you a new code! might sound stupid, but its got me out of trouble loads of times! have you tried searching your email account for the email, search autodesk or something?

phone or email them for a reminder :dontgetit:

you can always opt for 'off-line' activation and I think it gives you 30 days.

been a while must admit............. :)

failing that - who is your email with? cant you log into a webmail portal for your service provider, and pull up your old emails? I can with sky, plus-net and virgin :thumbsup:

If its a student version which is the same program but free, I guess you could email them asking to resend info or use a different student account email address. Basically the student account has to have the 'ac.uk' in it.

All of autodesk's software is not given away for free. :)

I bought my copy of Autocad 2008 in Malaysia, at the IMBI Plaza electronics mall, and the receipt clearly stated its legalities, authorisation codes and the such - and yes, the expense can be overwhelming for legitamate copies like mine......but it is without doubt the best 4 quid I have ever spent :thumbsup: :(
