When Dorico 4 starts up, Steinberg Activation Manager will run and ask you to sign in one last time with your Steinberg ID. Run Dorico 4 using the icon on your desktop or from your Start menu (Windows) or by double-clicking the Dorico 4 icon in your Applications folder (macOS). Once all of the progress bars for the downloads have turned green and the button to their right reads Install Again, you’re ready to go. This will take a few minutes (or longer, depending on your Internet speed), so go and enjoy your favourite beverage while you wait. Select the product as appropriate, and on the right-hand side, click the Install All button, which will download and install all of the required components. Now Dorico Pro 4 or Dorico Elements 4 will appear in the My downloadable products category on the left-hand side. Copy and paste the Download Access Code you received by email. Sign in to SDA if you are prompted, then click Enter your Download Access Code in the top left corner of the SDA window.
You may already have Steinberg Download Assistant installed on your computer, but if not, you can download it here. Sign in to the web site with your Steinberg ID, or create one if you’ve not downloaded a Steinberg product before (it’s free), and in a few minutes you’ll receive an email containing a Download Access Code, which will allow you to download the software and grant you your 30-day trial license. Visit the Steinberg web site and click the button to request a trial either of Dorico Pro 4 or Dorico Elements 4. Downloading, installing and activating your trial
If you’ve been waiting to try out Dorico Pro 4 or Dorico Elements 4 before you buy, the wait is over: you can now download a free 30-day trial of either version from the Steinberg web site.
