Registering used Pod?

[pribus]

Hi!

 

I might buy a used HD500 to use as a backup (I already have a HD500). But what about product registration? If it is registered already on the previous owner, can I re-register it to my account?

 

Do I need to register in order to get software updates?

I don't think you need to reregister it in order to get updates as per other threads I read. If it's already been registered the owner needs to unregister it in order for you to register it to your account.

Thanks.

 

I will go and look at one next week. I'll try to rember to ask the guy if it is registered.

:), It wouldn't hurt for you to ask if you can try it out first, even connect it to your computer if possible, just to see if works. As a heads up check the condition of the USB Port.

I bought the used HD500 and the guy unregistered it while I was there testing it. No problem re-register in my name and no problem updating firmware and transfer patches from my old Pod. All is good exept the View button sometimes get stuck in the pressed down position. It snaps back when turning the bank selector knob.

 

Never seen that one before.

Yeah that's weird, maybe it's not the knob but just the slight vibration of the knob turning that releases the view button. It's possible some sticky liquid got in there once and now it just sticks a little.

 

Glad you got it though.
