3D FlipBook - Fail to Fetch after moving to new server

I moved sites to a new server by making a direct copy from old to new. They tell me CORS in enabled on the new server, and I have tried numerous variations in .htaccess but files will not fetch. On my old server, files fetched without even having a .htaccess in place. (I don't know why.)

Well, it was one issue after the other with the new host on their supposed managed Wordpress server. I could not take it any longer and moved the site again to another host and everything works as it should and fetching files as it should is no problem.
Ok, maybe one problem. I created a staging site to try out new ideas, 3D Flipbook is on a subdomain, call it abc.site.com and the staging site is at abc3.site.com. I use shortcode to fetch the pdf files stored at another subdomain xyz.site.com. CORS is turned on, and when abc is fetching files from xyz, it works perfectly. (There is no .htaccess needed to do this.) But when abc3 tries to open a file from xyz, it fails to fetch. The flipbook license on the staging subdomain abc3, shows it is registered to subdomain abc. Does the plugin not allow fetching when the license info does not match the registered domain?
I can't say I noticed this behavior at my old host with the staging site so I don't know if it is a security feature with the plugin or something else going on. Any clarity is appreciated.
hi, no, there is no internal plugin restrictions, you can use PDF from any domains https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2nFc4Ksjuo but you should care about CORS policy on server with PDFs.
