Is your Universal Audio (UAD) auth file throwing a tantrum? Don't panic! A non-working UAD auth file is a common headache, but usually easily resolved. This post will guide you through some quick troubleshooting steps to get your plugins singing again.
First, ensure your iLok License Manager is up-to-date. Outdated software is a frequent culprit. Next, double-check your iLok account. Are your licenses active and assigned to the correct iLok dongle or Cloud Session? Sometimes, a simple re-synchronization can do the trick. Open iLok License Manager, sign in, and click "Synchronize" (usually a button with two arrows).
Still stuck? Try restarting your computer and your audio interface. Power cycling can often clear up temporary glitches. Finally, if all else fails, visit the Universal Audio website for their official troubleshooting guide or contact their support team. They're the UAD experts and can provide tailored assistance to get your auth file working flawlessly again. Happy mixing!
