Hmmm.. You paid 99 bucks for the 5.2 with the promise of a free Live 6 upgrade offer? [< Time-limited Ableton offer: Upgrade to Live 6 for EUR/USD 99>] You now have it registered. Your email is registered and linked with your registration numbers. You saw no instructions or tab to click for free merchandise to be sent to you. The Lite may be an issue, but logically it doesn't make sense. I upgrade from Live 2 and I bet your edition of Live Lite was more advanced than 2. Seems to me they would not have let you have 5.2 in the first place if the LITE version was an issue. But who knows. One thing that I did that I did not mention. I emailed Nadine and told her that I could not get 6 and initialize it. She wrote back and told me to send her my purchase receipt and 5.2 serial number. She then wrote back with these instructions. Dear Marc, thank you for your e-mails. Sorry for the slightly delayed response. Please go to our webshop http://www.ableton.com/upgrade And enter your Live 5.2 serial number. You will automatically receive a Live 6 serial number for free sent to your personal account. Enjoy Live 6! It took a little more than that to finally get it completed. It sounds like you should get Live 6 and there is some glitch in your account. If you don't get any resolution and you live in the USA I would call the USA technical support line and give them a shot. Maybe they could intervene for you. Ableton has been unusually slow with emails lately and that has not been my experience with them in the past. They have always been kindly helpful to me.
