Bing License Key
If you do not have a valid Bing license key, you would be unable to use Bing Tile Services. In this case, accessing Bing Roads, Hybrid, and Aerial display the message:

If you have a saved workspace containing a Bing Tile Server layer or a map with objects and vector layers on it, and your Bing key is invalid; you will be unable to open the workspace properly. The workspace would open, but without the tile server layer. The following is an example error message that would appear:
To resolve these errors, re-enter a valid Bing license key to the Bing Tile Services.
To enter the valid key credentials:
- On the PRO tab, click Licensing, and Bing License Key (you may need to scroll down your screen to see this option) to display the Bing Key Credential dialog box.
- Type a valid value in the Enter valid key field and click OK.
The Bing Roads tile server also may require that you have a valid license for them. If you see a message that your service has expired, then contact your Precisely representative to learn about renewal options. The Add Bing Roads to Map feature is only available to MapInfo Pro Premium Option holders (this service requires an additional fee and do not come standard with the product). The evaluation version of MapInfo Pro includes a preview of this feature, but after activating your MapInfo Pro license, you require the Premium Option to access it.
