Skip this step if you have a soft-license code (like “XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX”)

If you have a physical USB license key (“Dongle”), and use it on macOS for the first time, check its compatibility:

  1. Start the just installed CodeMeter Control Center app
  2. Insert the physical USB license key
  3. If the serial number of the stick is visible in the left pane, your USB license key is compatible

If nothing appears, your license key is not compatible; please contact support

3. Download and Install Mangold INTERACT

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need before installing Mangold software?
You need either a physical Mangold USB license key (dongle) or a Mangold soft-license code in the format XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX. At least one of these is required for the Mangold Software Manager to activate and install products.
How do I install Mangold INTERACT on Windows?
Download the Mangold Software Manager from videoanalysis.net/setup/MSM and launch it. The Software Manager detects your license, downloads the latest compatible products (INTERACT, VideoSyncPro, Mangold Vision, etc.), and guides you through installation.
What is needed to install Mangold INTERACT on macOS?
macOS installations require the CodeMeter User Runtime from Wibu Systems to be installed first. Then follow the PDF installation guide for INTERACT on macOS, available through the Mangold Software Manager or the linked PDF download.
My USB license key is not recognized on macOS - what should I do?
Open the CodeMeter Control Center app and insert the USB key. If the serial number does not appear in the left panel, the key is not macOS-compatible. Contact Mangold Support to obtain a compatible key or a soft license code.
Can I install multiple Mangold products with a single Software Manager run?
Yes. The Mangold Software Manager lists all products covered by your license. You can select which products to download and install in a single session.
What should I do if Mangold INTERACT does not start after installation on macOS?
This usually means your license is not valid for the installed version. Contact the Mangold sales team at sales@mangold-international.com before upgrading to confirm whether your existing license covers the latest version.
