Troubleshooting

"Invalid license code format"

Make sure your code follows the format: OBDAI-XX-XXXX-XXXX (with dashes). The code is case-insensitive.

"This license code has already been claimed"

Each license code can only be used once. If you've already activated it on another account, the license is linked to that account.

"Invalid license code"

Double-check your code against your order confirmation email. Make sure you're entering it exactly as shown.

"Network error"

Check your internet connection and try again.
