Trimble SketchUp License Renewal: A Step-by-Step Guide

Renewing your Trimble SketchUp license is a straightforward process that can be completed in a few simple steps. In this article, we will walk you through the process of installing and setting up your SketchUp software.

Firstly, download the dmg install file from the official Trimble website or other authorized sources. Once downloaded, locate the file on your computer and drag it to the trash can to remove any unnecessary files.

To begin the installation process, navigate to the Applications > SketchUp folder and double-click on the SketchUp icon. You will then be prompted with a security message; click 'Open' to proceed.

The installer window will open, displaying a progress bar as the files are copied. Once complete, you will have a new SketchUp folder under Applications. This will mount the installer and open a window with a SketchUp icon on it.

To access included apps like V-Ray, locate and double-click on the downloaded file. Make sure you're logged into your computer as a user with administrative privileges to ensure a smooth installation process.

If you encounter any issues during installation, you can refer to an access guide video available HERE for assistance.

Once the installer is complete, you can launch SketchUp and sign in at the welcome screen to access your subscription or free trial. You will also have the option to install Scan Essentials and V-Ray if desired.

When the installation window opens, you'll have the opportunity to change the application language and choose a different installation directory. This step may take some time, so be patient as it completes.

You may see a security prompt during this process; if so, you will need to give the SketchUp installer permission to make changes on your computer.

To open the downloaded Installer file as an administrator, right-click on the file and select 'Run as Administrator.' This will ensure that the installation process runs smoothly without any issues.

By following these simple steps, you should be able to successfully install and set up your Trimble SketchUp software. If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to our support team for assistance.
