The JetBrains (formerly IntelliJ) from Czech Republic has offered many excellent IDEs for various website and application developers. For example, the IntelliJ IDEA has been recognized as one of the best Java developing tools in the industry.

Here, of course, what AppNee concerns about is all the approaches that can effectively activate JetBrains/IntelliJ all products. Especially from IntelliJ IDEA 2016, as far as I know, the working activation/registration method is really few on the Internet. But since this post from AppNee, this will no longer be a headache problem. As you can see, this kind of post at AppNee will get our continuous updating and maintaining work.

*** The activation code is genuine, no unlock path required. It’s valid from 2017.01.31 to 2018.01.30.

*** Unlock Patch does not require activation code.

*** And you should add the following line to your hosts file in the use of IntelliJ IDEA:

  • 0.0.0.0 account.jetbrains.com

for 15:

Method 1:

  1. Use the license key Universal License Key for 15 or generate using the Universal Keygen for 14/15 when required
  2. Use the Universal Unlock Patch for 15

Method 2:

  • The same as 16.

// How to use Local License Server //

  1. Install or extract any product of JetBrains/IntelliJ from official site
  2. Either direct run the license server on your own PC, or upload it to and run it on a (dedicated) server:
    • darwin – MacOSX ( x86, x64 )
    • freebsd – FreeBSD ( x86, x64, ARM)
    • linux – Linux ( x86, x64, ARM, ARM64 )
    • windows – Windows ( x86, x64 )
  3. Copy the corresponding binary file of the license server to a permanent directory, such as “C:\license-server\” or “/opt/license-server/
  4. Then, on Windows:
    1. Run a CMD as administrator
    2. Enter the folder where you put the license server by using “cd” command
    3. Install the license server as a windows service (If you want to remove it, use “-mode uninstall” instead):
      • for x86: dvt-jb_licsrv.386.exe -mode install
      • for x64: dvt-jb_licsrv.amd64.exe -mode install
    4. Run “services.msc” and start the service. Alternatively, use “net start” command instead, or just restart your PC/serve
  5. On Unix-like OS:
    1. Enter the folder where you put the license server
    2. Install a new service by executing the binary file either as root or using the following command (platform = your OS; arch = your system architecture; to uninstall, use “-mode uninstall” instead):
      • sudo: dvt-jb_licsrv.[platform].[arch] -mode install
    3. Start this service using your standard service tools
  6. Launch your JetBrains/IntelliJ application, and use your own license server to license all clients on any platforms.

Notes: If you are running the license server on the same host, you should use “http://127.0.0.1:1337” as license server instead. Otherwise, use the IP address or hostname of your license server.
