If you are on version 24.2022.05 or higher, you will not need to update Smart Designer. You can check your version number and Smart Designer email from the Smart Designer docker by selecting the Activation Tab. If no version is displayed under System Information, you are on an older version and need to update.

STEP 3: Verify that the email address you used to sign up for GraphicsFlow matches the email you used when you installed Smart Designer.

If the emails do not not match (including case) on each installed system, Smart Designer will not activate. If you are not sure, log into your GraphicsFlow account and notate the email address that corresponds to your login for your primary user. This is the person that initially signed up for the membership. You can also access your email by selecting the drop down list in the upper right corner of your GraphicsFlow page.
