Copy the Machine Install ID and go to another computer that has an internet connection. Open a web browser and go to https://www.smartdraw.com/support/getvalidationcode.aspx
Paste the Machine Install ID in the form on this page and click Submit. You will receive a validation code that corresponds to your license key and Machine Install ID.
Copy the validation code and go back to your computer where you installed Smartdraw 2012. Paste the validation code in the manual validation dialog box and click OK.
