Hi there
I activated CUBASE Pro 8 just now (2016/12/19), and automatically got CUBASE 9 License.
Then went to official Steinberg website, I entered my eLicenser number, then only 8.5 came out.
According to official Steinberg website, I’m eligible for a free update to 9.
I would appreciate if someone could help me.
Thank you
Could you clarify what you mean when you say “enter my elicenser number, and 8.5 came out”?
If the license for 9 is on the dongle, you don’t need to activate anything. Just download C9 and install it.
Dear jaslan
Thank you very much for the reply 
I finally downloaded CUBASE 9 after I created MySteinberg Account.
(Last time I hadn’t created MySteinberg Account yet.)
What I did is this;
1.https://www.steinberg.net/en/support/grace_period.html
2.Enter the eLicenser number
3.Click “Check for grace period eligibility”
4.The result shows 8.5 only (last time i was stuck here)
5.After creating MySteinberg Account, 9 became available for download in the downloads tab in MySteinberg.
Is it working now?
Does the license let you use C9?
Hi
Yes C9 is working with the license:D 
Great!
