Don't know what DHCP is . . .
And, since I'm fairly computer-literate, I'm guessing that means I don't have it. On the other hand, if you can spell out the acronym for me, I might have a more certain answer. Not sure where I'd look to see if my IP changes . . . though, again, I'd be surprised if that happens. And, just to confirm this really annoying problem persists . . . it persists. After burning up one of my serial numbers, I successfully loaded with the other last night. Then, as I sometimes do, I just put the computer to sleep overnight. Same problem came up this morning. Frustrating to say the least.

Dont worry about the DHCP issue, I am building an app to tell me whats going wrong. If you are curious as to what DHCP is then you can read up on it here:

Same issue here - on a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5.7
I can unlicense and re-license which fixes it until a reboot or full sleep, then it's there again. Clicking "OK" on the warning dialog box returns me to the OOTP Main Screen, where I can play the game as if it was licensed. Using the manual option on licensing doesn't seem to make a difference either. |

You got me. I know that when I go into the game setup I still have the option to "Unlicense the Game" so on some level maybe the game still think it's licensed.
Would the demo period restart every time I do the Unlicense-relicense routine? Annoying as heck. I'm mystified why the beta testers reported it yet the development team wasn't sure it was an actual bug. Seems pretty actual to me. |

1. You can't sim past one day in demo mode. Not an option.
2. Same problem here - Mac 10.4.11 3. I have DHCP. However, when I discovered this problem, I was on a train without internet access. 4. I unlicensed. Quit the program, restarted. I entered my lincense and nothing happened. What is this "relicense" thing that people have been talking about? 5. So I figured - let's uninstall and reinstall since that has been the solution for so many things OOTP over the years. 6. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Now, when I click on Enter a License Key, and I enter the key, I get an error message - it says "The product was not activitated. Check the serial number was entered and try again. Game will run in demo mode." So I can't play at all now. Help. |

Good news, well half good news anyway. I have found and fixed the problem with the re-enter dialog not working correctly and it will be in the next build. I am still working on cause for the license wanting to be re-entered.
I will report back when I have found it, maybe with a workaround if I can. |

I was the only Mac user in the beta who had notable problems, including this one. As I mentioned in other threads, replacing the OOTP application (not the whole folder or game) proved to be the most effective way to getting to a game that is problem free. That may not solve every problem. Also uninstall/reinstall may not either. In order to do that completely you have to clean out some hidden files as well as the visible ones. |

1. Somehow I forgot about the extra license. When I entered it, it worked fine. Now I just have to never turn off my computer!!
2. Someone mentioned logging into PISD and getting your license released. Could you post more detailed instructions? I'll be switching to a new computer very soon and with one license gone, I'm assuming I won't be able to make OOTP work on the new computer unless I can get it back. Most importantly, how does one log on to PISD? 3. Vopad - Unfortunately, bugs and OOTP go together. It's only been a week or less - I'd counsel having a bit more patience. |

If you have a stuck license check you this FAQ at the bottom. It explains how you release it:
