This article applies to:

 * Revu 20
 * Revu 2019
 * Revu 2018

Jump to other versions:

 * Revu 2017 and older

You’ll need to have both your serial number and product key handy to complete
this process. They can be found on the License Certificate sent to the license
owner from registration@bluebeamops.com. If you’re unable to find your license
information, see Find your Revu product key.


BACKING UP AND RESTORING SETTINGS

 * To back up your tool sets and profiles, see Backing up, resetting & restoring
   your Revu preferences, tool sets & profiles.
 * To back up and import your stamps, see Backing up and restoring your stamps.


TRANSFERRING YOUR LICENSE

Before beginning, make sure the source computer you are transferring from has a
stable internet connection.

ON THE SOURCE COMPUTER

 1. Open Revu and go to Revu > Unregister. Close Revu.
    If you’re unable to unregister a previous device, please see this article
    for assistance releasing your license. 
 2. Open the Windows Start menu and then select Apps and Features (Programs and
    Features).
 3. Select Bluebeam Revu and then select Uninstall. Follow the on-screen prompts
    to continue uninstalling the software.
    If you are using Revu 20, continue to step 4. Otherwise, continue to the
    next section on installing Revu to your new computer.
 4. From Apps and Features, select BluebeamOCR 20. As of Revu 20, the OCR module
    must be uninstalled separately from the general Revu application.
 5. Select Uninstall. Follow the on-screen prompts to continue uninstalling the
    software.

ON THE DESTINATION COMPUTER

If you’ve already installed Revu onto the destination computer, you simply need
to register your software on the new device by opening Revu, going to Revu >
Register, and then entering the serial number and product key listed on your
License Certificate.

If you haven’t installed Revu on your new computer, follow the steps below:

 1. Download Revu. A download link is also included in your License
    Certificate. Be sure to download the edition and version of the software
    listed on your License Certificate. 
 2. Install Revu.
 3. During the installation, enter your serial number and product key when
    prompted. These are listed on the License Certificate you received from
    registration@bluebeamops.com.

Once the installation process is complete, your license of Revu will have been
successfully transferred. You may need to restart Windows before launching Revu.
Save your work and close any running applications before restarting.


TROUBLESHOOTING

For help with possible errors during the registration process, see Revu
registration errors for a list of common solutions. 

OTHER VERSIONS OF THIS ARTICLE

Revu 2017 and older

You can move your license to a new computer by completing the process described
below. However, you’ll need the serial number and product key listed in the
license certificate, which was sent to you from registration@bluebeamops.com.

If you’ve lost this information, you can contact License & Registration to
request that the license certificate be resent to you. When doing so, be sure to
include the serial number, version number, your name, company name, email
address and phone number where you can be reached.

If you don’t know your Revu serial number, it can be found by opening Revu and
clicking Help > About. The serial number is listed in the upper-left corner,
below the title and version number, which you also need to include when you
contact License & Registration.

REVU 2015 AND MICROSOFTÂź ACS RETIREMENT

MicrosoftÂź retired their Access Control Service (ACS), a cloud authentication
service that authorized users to access certain web applications and services.
The 2015.5 and 2015.6 versions of Revu use ACS when users attempt to register or
activate a computer to a license of Revu online. As a result, the online
registration process will no longer work with those versions. If you’re on Revu
2015.5 or 2015.6, see Microsoft ACS retirement and Revu authentication for more
information, and instructions on transferring your license.
