Deploying I Can Animate using Active Directory

Step 1: Check the prerequisites

I Can Animate requires .NET Framework 3.0 to be installed on the client machines. If this is not installed, please see Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 Administrator Deployment Guide for further instructions.

I Can Animate can export movies to .AVI or .WMV formats out of the box. If you want to export movies to QuickTime, then you must ensure that the client machines have QuickTime for Windows 7.5 or later.

Step 2: Locate .MSI file

You can use either the setup.msi file on the CD, or you can download the latest version.

Step 3: Generate an .MST

You need to generate an .MST (Microsoft Transform) file so that your registration details are copied to the client machines as part of the installation process. To do this, follow these steps:

• You will need access to the internet.
• Click on the link below to automatically load the MST generator.
• Generate MST online.
• Enter your registration details. The tool will not check whether your serial number is correct, so make sure you write it exactly as it appears on your registration card, including hyphens.
• Click "Generate MST"

Step 4: Create a new Active Directory package

• Place the .msi and the .mst on a network share
• Create a new package in Active Directory, using the .msi. Select "Advanced" deployment method.
• On the "Modifications" tab, click add and locate the .mst
• Choose the remainder of the deployment options as you normally would.
