    I recently purchased this version from Avid, and I'm not interested in working in the cloud for my sessions. When I try to open the program it forces me to be logged onto the internet to use the program. Will the iLok USB give me the capability to use the software I purchased without having to be online?

I want to work in Pro Tools from a local session not requiring internet access.

Thank you!!

    You don't need the physical Ilok, but you need to be signed up for it.

    Yes you can. You can actually reactivate your old account and then you can upgrade it through your account via Avid.
