How Do I Change My Clip Studio Paint Device?

Published in Clip Studio Paint 2 mins read

To change your Clip Studio Paint device, you'll need to deactivate the license on the old device and activate it on the new one. Here's how:

  1. Launch Clip Studio Paint on the device you want to start using.
  2. Bring up the license authentication screen. This might happen automatically, or you may need to go to "Help" and then "License". Look for an option related to "Activate" or "Use License".
  3. Select the license for your monthly usage plan from "Use existing license", and then select "Deactivate and launch on this device." This effectively transfers the license from your previous device.
  4. Confirm Deactivation: When the confirmation screen appears, select "Yes" to proceed with the deactivation on the previous device and activation on the current device.

This process ensures that you are only using Clip Studio Paint on the authorized number of devices allowed by your license.

Important Considerations:

  • Monthly Plans: The above instructions are specifically for monthly usage plans.
  • Perpetual Licenses: If you have a perpetual license, the process might be slightly different and could involve completely uninstalling the software from the old device. Consult the Clip Studio Paint support documentation for details.
  • Troubleshooting: If you encounter any problems during the deactivation or activation process, consult the Clip Studio Paint FAQ or contact their support team for assistance. Clip Studio Paint Support
  • Exceeding Device Limit: Attempting to activate the license on too many devices may result in errors. Always deactivate from a device you no longer use before activating on a new one.
