License Invitations
If the new computer is unregistered you can create a license invitation. This is great when you know the user but don't have the computer details.

Click "Create Invite" and copy the invitation. A license invite will start with LL_INVITE_ followed by a code.
This code can be "Pasted" into Label LIVE versions 2.9.0 and newer.
