After installation of NewBlue Prime, you’ll see a welcome screen to either create a new account or sign into an existing account.  If you’ve ever purchased anything from NewBlue or downloaded a trial version, you can use that same login. After you’re signed in, you’ll see this screen:

Click the Enter Serial Number option and paste the serial number you copied from the AVID Master Account and click Activate.
