    Usually you should get a licence transfer ID from the old owner. If there is no way of obtaining the licence transfer ID you have to contact NI support. You will need a proof of purchase and a picture of the serial number on your hardware in this process. 

    Go to Native Instruments site and log in with your account → Navigate to Support → Purchase & Account → Account Support → (scroll down) Contact Support → Contact NI Support

    Fill the form as follows:

    1 Do you need help with the activation or installation of a product? This question is required.* → No

    2 Is your question about License Transfers / 2nd hand purchases?This question is required.* → Yes

    3 We have collected all info around 2nd hand purchases in this overview. Please click below to find out more: This question is required.* → That doesn't help.

    4 OK. Are you a buyer or seller?This question is required.* → Buyer

    5 Have you received a License Transfer Token?This question is required.* → No

    6 Have you bought it from a shop (Guitar Center, Sweetwater, Thomann, etc.) or from a private person (Ebay, Facebook, etc.)?This question is required.* → Choose whatever is true… The next steps should be more or less self-explanatory
