Hello, i have got some serious problem, each time i open Cinema 4D Lite within AE, it keeps asking me for the registration even i already have done it!

Please help me! I completely uninstalled it and reinstalled it without any help.

      Maybe Cineware is trying to open the trial instead the Lite version. Add any C4D into a composition in After Effects, then go to  Effects Control for the Cineware Effects. Click on the options button in the top of the Cineware effect and check if the editor or renderer are looking for Trial or Lite version. Upload a screen capture of the Cineware options window so we can be sure what is happening here.

      i tried to uninstall my newest After Effects and reinstall it back to the previous version of it and there Cinema 4D Lite works fine, without any pop up windows asking you for the already done registration. Then i upgrade it to the newest version and ups... there is back that crapy windows asking me for the endless registration process over and over again. Have someone that same problem with that Cinema 4D Lite please? I am working on Mac (latest OSX, latest AE CC) please check it up and let me know please!

      yep, i work on Mac OS system, but i am not sure if i work on "enterprise" cloud account. This is in my work office.


      If its at work then it very well may be an enterprise edition since that edition is for work environments. I'm reaching out to MAXON support and will let you know what I find.

        Then, open Cinema 4D Lite. Go to Edit > Preferences. In the bottom of the preferences window, you will find a button for open the Preferences folder in the finder. Close Cinema 4D, delete this folder and try again.

        unfortunately, it didn't change anything...

        I already tried that before you sent me that suggestion Jose. But there is still that god damn window each time i open Cinema 4D Lite.... which is already registered.

        Maybe it started after installation of trial version of Cinema 4D... i guess

        Did you have installed a prevoius version of AE? Maybe you have two copies of C4D Lite installed, and this could be the cause of your problems. Look at your Applications folder, and check if you have a folder por a previous installation of AE. In this case, delete this folder. Also, before launching C4D inside AE, go to Edit > Purge > All memory and disk cache.
