Avid Sibelius Media Pack Installationsanleitung Seite 10

System Requirements and Compatibility
An Internet connection is required to register and authorize Sibelius software. This does not
have to be on the same computer where you are installing Sibelius.
The following are required to run Sibelius software:
• A qualified Windows or Mac computer
• A qualified audio interface (or built-in audio capability) is required for audio playback
• A qualified MIDI interface is required for MIDI input and output
Avid can only assure compatibility and provide support for hardware and software it has
tested and approved. For complete system requirements and a list of qualified computers,
operating systems, hard drives, and third-party devices, visit www.avid.com/compatibility.
Administrator Privileges
You must install Sibelius using a user account on your computer with administrator privileges.
In order to register Sibelius after installing it, you must either be using an administrator user
account, or be able to provide an administrator username and password when prompted.
Avid recommends that you install Sibelius, then after installing it, launch it and register it as an
administrator user. After having registered the software, we recommend that you run Sibelius
(like all other applications) as a non-privileged user, to increase the security of your system.
Creating Your Avid Account
An Avid account is required to activate Sibelius software, and, if you purchased a download
version of Sibelius, to download your software. If you don't have an Avid account, visit
www.avid.com/myavid to create your account.
