Troubleshooting

Fix the most common sign-in, activation, and install issues.

Sign-in issues

  • Make sure you are signing in with the same Google or GitHub account you used before.
  • Try a different browser if sign-in keeps failing.

License key issues

  • Re-copy the key from Settings and paste it again.
  • Do not add extra spaces at the beginning or end.
  • If the app says the license is active on another computer, click Use this device.

Download or install issues

  • On macOS, download the correct build (Apple Silicon vs Intel).
  • If your operating system blocks the app, follow the on-screen guidance to allow it.
