1 00:00:00,450 --> 00:00:05,454 Let's get your free sixty-day Auto-KJ trial ready, one step at a time. 2 00:00:05,454 --> 00:00:11,188 We'll create a free account on the website, open the desktop app, verify your email, 3 00:00:11,188 --> 00:00:12,904 and activate the trial. 4 00:00:12,904 --> 00:00:17,908 No payment card is required, and the trial does not automatically bill you. 5 00:00:17,908 --> 00:00:21,085 The sixty days begin only after successful activation. 6 00:00:21,085 --> 00:00:24,628 The website images in this video are real screenshots. 7 00:00:24,628 --> 00:00:27,440 The desktop steps are clearly labeled illustrations, 8 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,617 checked against version one point thirty point zero. 9 00:00:30,617 --> 00:00:34,525 No account or trial was activated to make this walkthrough. 10 00:00:36,492 --> 00:00:40,855 Before you begin, choose the computer you intend to use for the trial. 11 00:00:40,855 --> 00:00:45,218 Have an email inbox you can open now, and keep that computer online. 12 00:00:45,218 --> 00:00:48,626 The trial checks both your account and the recognized computer, 13 00:00:48,626 --> 00:00:52,989 so a different account or a reinstall will not give you another trial. 14 00:00:52,989 --> 00:00:56,078 If you already have an Auto-KJ account, use it. 15 00:00:56,078 --> 00:01:02,034 If the app is already installed, you can skip the download and go straight to the trial panel. 16 00:01:03,992 --> 00:01:07,943 In your browser, open auto-kj.com and choose Get Started. 17 00:01:07,943 --> 00:01:11,487 The window that appears is called Player Select. 18 00:01:11,487 --> 00:01:13,809 This is the sign-in screen. 19 00:01:13,809 --> 00:01:20,611 To create an account, look just below the large Start Game button and choose New Game? 20 00:01:20,611 --> 00:01:21,711 Create Account. 21 00:01:21,711 --> 00:01:27,699 If you already have an account, enter your email and existing password here instead. 22 00:01:27,699 --> 00:01:29,206 Forgot your password? 23 00:01:29,206 --> 00:01:34,787 Enter your account email and use Forgot Password, then follow the reset instructions. 24 00:01:36,742 --> 00:01:39,221 The new-account window says Create Character. 25 00:01:39,221 --> 00:01:42,442 Enter your display name, then your email address. 26 00:01:42,442 --> 00:01:44,551 Check the email spelling carefully. 27 00:01:44,551 --> 00:01:48,882 In Password, choose a unique account password and save it securely. 28 00:01:48,882 --> 00:01:52,102 Enter that same password again in Confirm Password. 29 00:01:52,102 --> 00:01:54,211 The two entries must match. 30 00:01:54,211 --> 00:01:58,542 The eye icon lets you show or hide what you typed. 31 00:01:58,542 --> 00:02:05,833 You choose this password yourself; you do not need to buy a code or wait for one by email. 32 00:02:05,833 --> 00:02:10,904 When all four fields are ready, choose Start Game to create your account. 33 00:02:13,658 --> 00:02:16,004 After registration, your account is Free. 34 00:02:16,004 --> 00:02:19,049 Creating it has not started the sixty-day clock. 35 00:02:19,049 --> 00:02:23,495 Keep your account email and chosen password ready for the desktop app. 36 00:02:23,495 --> 00:02:28,640 You may also see a permanent License Key in the dashboard or welcome email. 37 00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:34,136 That is a different credential, and seeing it does not prove the trial is active. 38 00:02:34,136 --> 00:02:36,131 We'll use the email-and-password route. 39 00:02:36,131 --> 00:02:38,127 The verification code comes later. 40 00:02:38,127 --> 00:02:41,522 A singer's show code is unrelated to this signup. 41 00:02:43,492 --> 00:02:49,389 Back on the official website, find the Free version card and Download App, Free. 42 00:02:49,389 --> 00:02:52,879 Match both your operating system and your processor. 43 00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:57,171 Most Intel or AMD Windows computers use Windows x sixty-four. 44 00:02:57,171 --> 00:03:00,662 Snapdragon computers use Windows A R M sixty-four. 45 00:03:00,662 --> 00:03:06,157 On a Mac, choose Intel or Apple Silicon, M-series, to match your computer. 46 00:03:06,157 --> 00:03:11,252 Linux has x sixty-four downloads, including AppImage and the appropriate package options. 47 00:03:11,252 --> 00:03:13,940 Install and open the desktop app. 48 00:03:13,940 --> 00:03:17,029 The Singer App is a different app. 49 00:03:17,029 --> 00:03:22,124 You do not need the subscription or lifetime-purchase buttons for this trial. 50 00:03:24,075 --> 00:03:27,585 On a first launch, choose Set up my show. 51 00:03:27,585 --> 00:03:30,733 Next, choose Paid plan or free sixty-day trial. 52 00:03:30,733 --> 00:03:36,053 Under Do you already have a license key, choose Start my free sixty-day trial. 53 00:03:36,053 --> 00:03:38,477 These choices open the trial form. 54 00:03:38,477 --> 00:03:41,263 They do not activate the trial yet. 55 00:03:41,263 --> 00:03:44,774 This is an illustrated guide to the app labels, 56 00:03:44,774 --> 00:03:49,007 so the arrangement on your screen may look a little different. 57 00:03:50,992 --> 00:03:56,032 If you have already been using the app, open Settings and find License Activation. 58 00:03:56,032 --> 00:03:58,672 Choose Try Full version for sixty days. 59 00:03:58,672 --> 00:04:03,369 The license section can be farther down when a license is already present. 60 00:04:03,369 --> 00:04:06,352 Both routes lead to the same trial panel. 61 00:04:06,352 --> 00:04:11,391 If the option is missing in an older installation, update from the official download. 62 00:04:11,391 --> 00:04:17,117 If it is still unavailable, contact support rather than buying a plan just to follow this 63 00:04:17,117 --> 00:04:18,043 trial guide. 64 00:04:20,033 --> 00:04:25,441 In the trial panel, enter Account email and Account password, then choose Sign in. 65 00:04:25,441 --> 00:04:29,009 Use the same password you created on the website. 66 00:04:29,009 --> 00:04:32,945 Do not put your password into a License Key field. 67 00:04:32,945 --> 00:04:39,456 There is an optional Use an existing license key route, but this walkthrough does not require it. 68 00:04:39,456 --> 00:04:42,656 Signing in still does not start the trial. 69 00:04:42,656 --> 00:04:45,488 Wait for the email-verification controls to appear. 70 00:04:47,450 --> 00:04:51,566 Choose Send verification code inside the desktop trial panel. 71 00:04:51,566 --> 00:04:56,955 Leave Auto-KJ open, and check your inbox for Verify your Auto-KJ email. 72 00:04:56,955 --> 00:04:59,799 Check spam or junk if necessary. 73 00:04:59,799 --> 00:05:02,217 Copy the entire sixty-four-character code. 74 00:05:02,217 --> 00:05:07,606 It uses lowercase letters a through f and digits zero through nine. 75 00:05:07,606 --> 00:05:11,723 This is a long code, not a six-digit number. 76 00:05:11,723 --> 00:05:18,385 It expires after fifteen minutes, and you can request another only once every five minutes. 77 00:05:18,385 --> 00:05:22,077 Use the newest complete code without extra spaces. 78 00:05:24,867 --> 00:05:30,466 Return to the trial panel and paste the full code into Email verification code. 79 00:05:30,466 --> 00:05:34,922 Choose Verify email, then wait until the panel says Email verified. 80 00:05:34,922 --> 00:05:38,998 Sending a code is not the same as verifying it. 81 00:05:38,998 --> 00:05:44,597 If Verify email is disabled, check that you copied all sixty-four characters and removed 82 00:05:44,597 --> 00:05:46,768 any space at either end. 83 00:05:46,768 --> 00:05:51,605 If the code expired, request a fresh one after the resend cooldown. 84 00:05:51,605 --> 00:05:56,823 Email verified is an important checkpoint, but the trial has still not begun. 85 00:05:59,575 --> 00:06:04,000 Next, read the device-recognition and retention disclosure in your app. 86 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:10,492 Use the actual retention period shown there; this video does not substitute a guessed number. 87 00:06:10,492 --> 00:06:16,157 The disclosure explains how coded email and device identifiers are retained to prevent 88 00:06:16,157 --> 00:06:17,274 repeat trials. 89 00:06:17,274 --> 00:06:22,939 If the server has not supplied its retention policy, stop and contact support. 90 00:06:22,939 --> 00:06:29,431 When you are ready, tick the agreement to device recognition and the fixed sixty-day trial, 91 00:06:29,431 --> 00:06:32,202 with no card or automatic billing. 92 00:06:32,202 --> 00:06:34,972 Then choose Start my sixty-day trial. 93 00:06:34,972 --> 00:06:37,743 Successful activation starts the clock immediately. 94 00:06:40,533 --> 00:06:43,971 Now confirm the result inside the desktop app. 95 00:06:43,971 --> 00:06:48,990 Look for Full version trial active, and an Ends date and time. 96 00:06:48,990 --> 00:06:55,195 In the first-run wizard, you may see Trial active, Full version until your displayed date, 97 00:06:55,195 --> 00:06:56,657 with Next available. 98 00:06:56,657 --> 00:07:03,256 This illustration shows what to look for; it is not a recording of a real activation. 99 00:07:03,256 --> 00:07:08,670 A welcome email, a website dashboard, or Email verified alone is not enough. 100 00:07:08,670 --> 00:07:12,108 Write down the end date you actually see. 101 00:07:12,108 --> 00:07:16,732 If you activated earlier, Check existing trial retrieves the original deadline. 102 00:07:16,732 --> 00:07:19,775 It does not start another sixty days. 103 00:07:22,533 --> 00:07:28,345 The trial is sixty consecutive days, or fourteen hundred and forty elapsed hours, from activation. 104 00:07:28,345 --> 00:07:33,046 It enables Full version on that computer, with one simultaneous live show. 105 00:07:33,046 --> 00:07:37,007 Bring your own properly licensed karaoke files; songs, premium upgrades, 106 00:07:37,007 --> 00:07:39,858 and paid Ghost-Trax credits are not included. 107 00:07:39,858 --> 00:07:44,559 A successfully cached trial can work offline until its original end time. 108 00:07:44,559 --> 00:07:50,741 When it ends, the app returns to Free, and your library and show data are preserved. 109 00:07:50,741 --> 00:07:53,221 There is no automatic trial charge. 110 00:07:53,221 --> 00:07:56,812 Choosing a paid plan later is a separate action. 111 00:07:58,783 --> 00:08:02,944 If you get stuck, check the step you reached. 112 00:08:02,944 --> 00:08:08,391 An email-already-registered message means you should sign in to your existing account. 113 00:08:08,391 --> 00:08:14,695 A missing verification email means checking the account address, spam folder, and resend timer. 114 00:08:14,695 --> 00:08:20,571 A disabled Start Trial button means checking for Email verified, the retention disclosure, 115 00:08:20,571 --> 00:08:22,587 and the consent checkbox. 116 00:08:22,587 --> 00:08:27,176 A previously used trial or shared computer may need support. 117 00:08:27,176 --> 00:08:33,052 Contact support at auto-kj.com with your operating system, app version, and exact error. 118 00:08:33,052 --> 00:08:37,212 Never send your password, license key, or verification code. 119 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:40,952 Here's the quick recap. 120 00:08:40,952 --> 00:08:44,568 Create your free account, choosing and confirming your password. 121 00:08:44,568 --> 00:08:49,674 Open the desktop trial panel, sign in, and verify the full email code. 122 00:08:49,674 --> 00:08:54,036 Read the disclosure, agree when you're ready, and start the trial. 123 00:08:54,036 --> 00:09:00,260 Finally, confirm that the desktop app says the trial is active and shows your end date. 124 00:09:00,260 --> 00:09:04,994 Then continue setup, choose your karaoke folder, and get your show ready. 125 00:09:04,994 --> 00:09:10,101 You can pause or replay any step, and keep the written guide nearby. 126 00:09:10,101 --> 00:09:11,853 Enjoy your Auto-KJ trial.
