    2. 2

      Start memoQ

      In the folder with the saved memoQ installation file, start the relevant file and follow the on-screen installation instructions.
    3. 3

      Activate memoQ

      memoQ can be activated in several ways, depending on whether you have purchased your own license or have obtained the license from the client/translation agency. Upon first start, the Activation Wizard starts automatically. The following step depends on whether you have already purchased memoQ and already have the serial number or are installing the software for the first time and wish to install the trial version in order to purchase the license at a later date or obtain it from the client.

    4. 4

      Obtain the serial number

      If you do not have the serial number or have never purchased memoQ yet, in the following step, click:
    5. 5

      Enter the information to obtain the serial number

      In the next window, enter all the information to obtain the serial number, tick the data protection clause below and then Next.
    6. 6

      Software obtains the serial number

      The software obtains the serial number automatically (in this case he "translator pro" version), which is valid for a 30-day- trial. After 30 days (or any time before that) memoQ needs to be activated by purchasing your own serial number or by ibtaining the license from the client (usually for each job individually).
    7. 7

      Start activating the existing/purchased license

      If you have already purchased your license and received the serial number via email, click:

    8. 8

      Enter the information license

      Enter the required information about the purchased license: the received serial number (the serial number allows the installation to two computers with the extension 1 for the first computer and the extension 2 for the second computer), name under which the license was issued, company and email. Then tick the control window to agree with the data protection and then Next.

    9. 9

      Activate the license

      After all the information has been entered, select the following in the next window:

      memoQ is ready for use

      When the window below appears, memoQ is activated.
    11. 11

      Obtain the license from the client's server

      Follow the entire procedure to obtain the serial number within the 30-day trial (steps 1 to 6) since you will need a serial number that allows memoQ to run on your computer. Once you reach the fourth window (AFTER you have entered your information and the serial number), click:

      I wish to configure CAL.
    12. 12

      Search for the client's server or enter a new one

      The following window lists the available servers. Find your client's server (for us, it is memoq.leemeta.com). During the first use, the server will not be listed yet, therefore you need to select the option below to enter a new one:

    13. 13

      Activate the server

      Enter the server information: address (memoq.leemeta.com), user name and password (you get them from the project manager). Then click Check login and wait for the message SUCCESS to appear and click Next. memoQ is activated.
    14. 14

      Activation overview without the wizard

      memoQ allows to view/refresh licenses directly in a relevant menu without going through the wizard. This option can be found on the main screen under the blue memoQ tab.
    15. 15

      Options in the tab

      The tab offers several options. Client's (server) licenses can be refreshed if memoQ loses the connection to the license (Refresh licence), you can start the activation wizard (identical to the steps above – Activation Wizard) or enter the licenses overview directly (Activation).
