- Download Camtasia Mac DMG from here
- Go to this location: /Users/Shared/TechSmith/Camtasia/
- Inside of the Camtasia folder, create a text file named: LicenseKey We recommend using TextEdit and making sure these settings are checked in TextEdit before creating the text file. Once those settings are changed in TextEdit, close TextEdit completely and re-open it to create the text file. Do NOT put the .txt extension in the filename or allow a .txt extension to automatically be added to the file name. Make sure it is saved with UTF-8 Plain Text Encoding. See examples below:
- Deploy that text file to all your users. *Make sure the users have read and write access to the entire Users folder structure. You can try it without write access if your environment is setup that way.
- Once they load Camtasia for the first time, it will read the license key and unlock Camtasia.
