WEBVTT 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.
