If you are experiencing problems with the online activation, this is likely caused by a firewall that is preventing Wordfast Pro 5 from “calling home” to verify your activation key.
If this happens, you can manually activate your license.
Please note three important issues related to manual activation:
- Your company may have an email firewall that prevents you from receiving the license file. Try using a private email account for manual activation and double check your spam or promotions folder for the email.
- As of version 5.8, click on Copy to clipboard to copy the manual activation string.
- When emailing the manual activation string, DO NOT use an email subject or signature.
