Autocad Civil 3D 2014 Serial Number Product 11: Tips and Tricks for Using the Software



Product keys are required for installation of Autodesk products and are used to differentiate products that are both sold independently and as part of a product suite. For example, installing AutoCAD 2014 as a point product requires product key 001F1, but installing AutoCAD 2014 from the Autodesk Product Design Suite Ultimate 2014 requires product key 781F1. The same version of AutoCAD is in both software packages but the product key differentiates one package from the other.

From time to time you may need to know what Autodesk serial numbers you have on a specific machine (or machines). Or maybe you're trying to find the machine that has a particular serial number so you can install the appropriate upgrade on it. Perhaps, and probably most importantly, you want to ensure you have the proper serial numbers on the proper machines (license compliance) in the event you are audited by the software manufacturer. It is not difficult finding the serial numbers, but if you have a lot of Autodesk software installed it can be very tedious.


1) Launch the program and go into About AutoCAD (or About>Revit, or About>Inventor, etc) and click Product Information. This will bring up a dialog with the serial number information. You will need to do this for each and every Autodesk program you have installed.


Notice: we bypass the screen that prompts for the serial number, product key and if it's a standalone or network version. This is a new feature in AutoCAD. When you run the program it should prompt you.


Find Serial Numbers and Product Keys in Autodesk Account: Your Serial Number and Product Key are displayed in your Autodesk Account in the product tray on the Products & Services page and also again in the Software Download window. Note about serial number visibility in Autodesk Account: Only account administrators, such as Contract Managers and Software Coordinators, and Named Users with assigned software benefits will see serial numbers in Autodesk Account. You are the account administrator if you purchased a software subscription using your Autodesk Account or were assigned the role of Contract Manager or Software Coordinator by your company. If you do not see the software you wish to activate in your Autodesk account or see the message "Contact your admin for serial numbers," you need to contact the contract administrator. Only an administrator can assign you as a Named User or End User and give you permissions to download and activate the software.


If, for whatever reason, you cannot locate your product key, there is another method: 1. Using your installation media, (USB key, DVD, download folder, etc.) navigate to the location of the setup.exe file for your Autodesk product. 2. In that folder, look for a file named MID.txt, MID01.txt, MID02.txt or some variation on that name. 3. Open this file in notepad and verify that the product name is what you expected it to be. 4. The first five characters of the part number should also be the product key for that product. 2ff7e9595c
