IWork ’09 Keeps asking to be Registered

iworkkeynotenumberspagesremote desktop

I'm a teacher in a classroom with 8, 9 10 and 11 year olds who each have a macbook or a macbook pro. Fun job. We have a standard 10.6.6 image with iWork '09 (4.03).

In previous images, iWork would ask to be registered thrice (it changed to 'Never Register' on the third time), and then stop bugging you; but now for some reason it won't stop asking us to register. It's a real hassle. I've repaired disk permissions, but that doesn't fix it. Any ideas how to stop it from asking us to register? Bonus points if I can roll it out using a terminal script via. remote desktop.

Thanks!

I found this via google Disable iWork registration nag screen.

defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWork09 RegistrationHasBeenSent true

I have no idea if this will work for you. I wanted to point this out in case you hadn't tried it.

This blog was the first result in google from searching for iwork disable reg. If it doesn't work, you might see if there are more results that might help or a slightly different search that might provide something meaningful. In any event, good luck. I hope it helps.
