Product Registrations and You!
How to get the Stardock software you paid for.
Monday, June 27, 2011 by Rosco_P | Discussion: Stardock Support General
Greetings, friends!
We've been getting a lot of questions about how to download and install your Stardock software purchases from both the past and present (and future, too, I guess). Well, here's the skinny on that. Get it? 'Skin'ny? *sigh*
Anyway, at the moment we are in a transition period. Specifically, we are transitioning away from Impulse being your main download and update method. Going forward, you can access all of your registrations and download links for Stardock software by logging in here:
https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products
This will give you a list of everything that is on your account, along with your serial numbers and installer download links. That's right, download links directly to the latest stable version of the software. Let's all pause to let that sink in.
...
Ok, then. Each application should prompt for activation the first time, just type your email address, and copy/paste from the page into the window, and you should be all set.
As always, keep in mind that trial versions of our software are not upgradable to the full versions by entering a product key, and they must be uninstalled and the PC rebooted before installing the full version of any program.
Common issues:
"I don't see [program name] listed, what happened to it?"
If you have registrations on more than one email address, you'll need to get them on the same account. If you have access to both email addresses, you can merge them together here:
https://www.stardock.com/support/registrations/
If you don't have access to both, send an email to [email protected] with an order or serial number, or billing address for verification, and we'll merge them together for you.
"I just renewed my Object Desktop subscription, and Impulse still says it's expired!"
Because Impulse is now owned by Gamestop, your renewal only affects the Stardock side of things, so Impulse can't know that you've renewed. You will need to use the new download page to access the software.
"What about my games?"
If you've purchased any Stardock gaming titles (GalCivII, Sins, Demigod, Elemental), those will still be handled through Impulse. This site is for non-gaming software only.
"What about [problem that I haven't thought of yet]?"
Either post it here, or email [email protected] for assistance. If you're posting here, try to avoid posting things like serial numbers or personal email addresses.

Quoting RedneckDude, reply 29What is this?
Jim, I believe that reflects on a deal in the past where if you bought an ODNT subscription, you got a year's subscription to WC along with it. I could be wrong, though.

Maybe I'm old school but I liked Stardock Central. Anyone remember it?

Wiz and I have been looking for it...lol. I thought I had an old copy on my PC, but I can't find it.
Reply #71 Saturday, July 9, 2011 1:02 PM
WC Browser too. I used to have a copy...can't find it. Probably wouldn't work anyhow.

I recently purchased an upgrade for Object Desktop and the Impulse software is still showing me that my account is expired. I have tried to update my registration with no success. I can't get my new subscription to show up. I emailed tech support about it but have not received a response. Is there anything I can to do get my purchase to show up?
Reply #74 Saturday, July 9, 2011 5:42 PM
I had the same problem.
Take a look at my reply #61, it is the response that I received from Stardock.
It explains the situation at this time.
Cheers

I'm so confused.
All my stuff is out of date and I missed the 'Tiles' offer because my subscription for Object Desktop ran out.
Can we still renew and get the updates and 'Tiles' (if I actually had the money) ? AndWHERE would or how would we get it?

Yes, you should be able to. Right now though to get Tiles you will need to download via Impulse until they get beta downloads sorted.

I renewed my sub but Imuplse keeps telling me my sub has expired.
I can't do anything through Imulse. I downloaded the old IRC but it is locked into my OLD sub and says it's expired.

Apparently, Impulse refuses even to be spelled correctly! ...lol...sorry Po. 
Seriously though. I tried Stardock Central and I couldn't even log in. I think I'll stick with Impulse a bit longer.

I really like this kind of software delivery method. Clean and simple. Thanks! Curious though that I can 'continue shopping' and I see stardock games listed?

Here is the Stardock reply
Rest assured that your subscription has been extended to 7/16/2012.
We are in the process of transitioning away from using Impulse to download Stardock software. Going forward, you can access your registrations and download links for standalone installers by logging in with your Stardock account here:
https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products
Keep in mind that trial versions of our software are not upgradable to the full versions by entering a product key, and they must be uninstalled and the PC rebooted before installing the full version of any app.
Please let me know whether this resolves your problem or if you have any additional questions.
