Windows / Mac
To manage licenses for Clicker 8 or DocsPlus on Windows / Mac:
- Visit activate.cricksoft.com
- Enter your serial number, complete the I’m not a robot check and click Start.
- Register your serial number if prompted. This protects it from being lost in future.
- Click Manage licenses.
This displays a list of activated computers and their current license status.
To reclaim a license from a computer, click its Reclaim License button. Its status will change to Expiring soon but the license will immediately become available for reuse.
If the software remains on the reclaimed computer, it will shortly stop working. Therefore, we recommend uninstalling the software immediately to avoid confusion. To activate this computer in future, you must click its Restore License button.
Expired Computers
Computers that go unused for a while may become Expired and give up their license. If this happens, simply launch the software and reactivate when prompted (a spare license must be available).
If an Expired computer has a Restore License button, it's been purposefully reclaimed as described above.
iPad / Chromebook
iPad licenses are per device. Chromebook licenses are per user.
To manage app licenses, you must be a Subscription Manager for your subscription (if not, the Manage tab won’t be visible after signing in).
- Sign into apps.cricksoft.com with your Google Account or Apple ID.
- Click the subscription's Manage button to see a list of activated iPads / Chromebook users.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to:
- add Chromebook users
- add iPads
- remove current users / iPads.
Chromebook site License
If you have a Site License or Flexi-License subscription, all Chromebook users should be licensed automatically (the app should launch with no messages). If this isn’t happening, please contact Support to provide us with your Google domain.
If your Google domain is shared with other schools, please add Chromebook users manually as described above. We recommend following Google's instructions to download a list of users:
support.google.com/a/answer/7348070
You can then copy and paste the Google account addresses into apps.cricksoft.com.
