Q:  I just purchased MidiIllustrator.  Where are my personalized license details (MidiIllustrator activation code)?
A:  If you have purchased MidiIllustrator using a credit or debit card, and you have received your payment confirmation email from PayPal, then your personalized activation details will be emailed to you shortly.

If you do not receive an authorization email from PayPal, or your activation details do not arrive in good time, then please firstly ensure that you are able to receive emails from MidiIllustrator.com, and that you do not have any SPAM blocking software in place.  Please also ensure that your ISP (Internet Service Provider) has not intercepted an email from us or PayPal and treated it as ‘junk’ mail.  This is the most common cause of missing emails in the ordering process.

If your activation details have not arrived, please contact us to let us know about the ordering problem and we will resolve it immediately.

A:  MidiIllustrator comes with free technical support and periodic free updates.  We are constantly trying to improve MidiIllustrator, adding new features and fixing any compatibility or functionality issues as soon as they are identified.

Bug fixes and minor functionality updates in the form of 'point releases' are free to existing owners of the current 'major' version.

Discounted upgrades are also available to existing customers whenever a 'major' new version of MidiIllustrator is released.
