Ok, so a few months ago, I got a Mac Pro to use as my main machine. I migrated everything from my MacBook Pro and went through the fun of finding out which programs now were unlicensed.
One of them was Aperture 2.x. No problem- I got my upgrade from the Apple store, and the key's online...
Bzzzt! It wanted the original 1.x key first. Naturally, I couldn't find that due to an office move that still has things all boxed up in three locations. So I contacted Apple, and despite the fact that I'd registered my 2.x successfully, they wanted a receipt for the 1.x version which I got from B&H.
Fortunately, B&H was able to email me my invoice, and Apple took the copy and gave me a new 1.x key which then made Aperture happy.
Just a warning- if you've updated your copy of Aperture, make sure you keep the original license key somewhere safe as a migration will kill the new version (which was still functioning fine on my laptop, but only with the upgrade key available.)
