Constantly re-entering license key

Amazin' Blue · 07-29-2009, 05:35 PM

This happened once or twice to me early on but is now happening every time I boot the game. I am constantly being forced to enter in my serial number, license key thing. Very annoying.

The only thing I can figure is that perhaps it has something to do with disconnecting my computer from the internet?

Can someone help?

I'm not sure if this was just a fluke or not, but I had this error message for the first time yesterday. Today, I opened OOTPX and tried loading a different file from the one the was placed in the "continue game" option. It loaded correctly, then I returned to the main screen and loaded the file I wanted (that was originally in the "continue game" spot) and it also opened correctly.

Food for thought...

I too am having to re-enter my key every time I start up OOTPX. I have tried to uninstall/reinstall a couple times with no luck.

I'm running OOTPX 10.4.28 for Mac on OSX 10.5.8.

Any suggestions?

I have the exactly the same issue.

When I purchased the game in the Spring, it worked fine. I haven't played in several weeks. When I tried playing again last night before installing the update, I enter the license, and get "game has not been activated."
