HELP brand new S4 install DVD not working
Posted on: 03.07.2011 by Yuki Homeyer
So excited I just bought an S4, but I went to pop the installation disc into my computer and my computer just spits it back out. Running on a MacBook Pro.

God please help me, is there any way around using the installation disc?

Hence my pickle. It's just frustrating that's all...
If your DVD drive is non-working, then you have 2 options:

1) insert the disc into another computer, copy the files to a flash drive, and then install on your computer

or

2) open a support ticket, and ask customer service and ask for a download link to the S4 software, or a direct serial number for Traktor Pro 2

Which install CD came with your S4? Traktor S4 or Traktor Pro 2?

If it came with S4 version, then you need to install and activate Traktor S4 first... the free upgrade comes automatically by emails after successful registration.

Fucking livid right now. the traktor pro s4 serial number that came with my S4 does not work to activate traktor pro 2.

Isn't there a free update available for Traktor pro S4 users to traktor pro 2?

I'm not sure how to do it if it's the KS4Pro serial key, but some new buyers had they're Traktor pro 2 serial # on the KS4 install disc. Try downloading the demo here http://www.native-instruments.com/#/...o-2/?page=1997. When you start the program click on activation, go thru all the steps, and type in your serial. It's worth a shot
