DO I HAVE TO ACTIVATE IT, OR CAN I JUST USE IT AS IS?

It's always good to activate it. That way you are sure it is working. A very simple step to avoid a lot of disappointment.

The answer is yes, you can do either one and it will probably work fine. Keep in mind activating is as simple as pouring it into a cup of water and waiting for a few minutes so I typically do, but I've experimented with a few different wines and mead's and this yeast will take care of business either way. It's also my go-to yeast for a stuck fermentation (but for that I always activate it first just in case).

I've done both depending on what I was brewing, so it's just a matter of your personal preference.

Yes. The best way is to download a trial, and then use the key from this package to activate

You should be able to use it at anytime. There isn't anything to limit when you can use it.

Yes, easily. That's how I prefer to use it, actually. It has push button activation.

Goto the apple store or service provider or call them and ask, they should be able to activate it for you

you can always call verizon and ask if they can use it as a pre-paid im pretty sure they use the same numbers to activate. but i wouldn't know for sure i activated mine with my contract plan.

i bought the same one and was able to activate it with the contract, but you can imply do it online and skip the visit to the store if you prefer

Yes. You can activate it online and don't even have to go to the store. Takes about two minutes and your done.

I don't think you could really use it in that manner, but you could get in touch with the company to be sure. I think when it is initially activated it needs to be near the base station (or possible on it if memory serves) so if your pet was gone, that would obviously be a problem. Not sure if it can be reactivated without also being near/on the base station. It is not an On-Demand service where you just pay the fee when you need it (i.e. not like renting movies on-demand, more like cable/internet service-personally I think the best analogy is to an alarm-type monitoring service for your home, except it is your pet in this case).

Gotta pay the activation fee. If you shut if off and later decide to turn it back on, you'll pay the activation fee again. Trust me....it's well worth it. This is an incredible little device. Answered many questions for me.

Mine is activated, but apparently yours is not, so you can answer the question yourself, but I cannot.

It depends of the seller, I bought 2 from different seller and both were activated in different web pages

As long as you can access the internet you can activate it with the code on the CD Cover/Jacket. The program updates from the internet automatically or you can manually update if you wish. You should load each computer (3 Max), with the CD first.
