PRODUCT-LICENSING SUPPORT PAGE 

All Skyestream products make use of an online license registration system called SkyeVault. SkyeVault requires users to enter a 16-digit license code when registering their software. Once entered, the software connects to the Internet to exchange licensing information with our license server. This is a once-only transaction that exchanges only a very small amount of licensing information and should take a few seconds to complete.

Some of the most common licensing related issues are listed below. Please read these carefully to see if this information can assist you. If you are unable to resolve your problem using the self-help pages below, contact our Technical Support team via email: techsupport@skyestream.com

I don't have access to the internet
I have not received my 16-digit license code
"Error: Connecting"
"Error: License Server not available." OR "Error: Server error."
"Error: License code invalid" OR "Error: Bad license code, please try again"
"Error: License code not valid for this product"
"Error: License code frozen"
"Error: License code already used on another phone"

I don't have access to the Internet
If you don't have access to the Internet from your mobile phone, then it will not be possible to complete an online license registration. In this case, you will need to contact us to generate an installable license file for you. 

Please send an email requesting an installable license file to our Technical Support team at: techsupport@skyestream.com




I have not received my 16-digit license code
Firstly, before going any further, have you checked your email "junk mail" or "spam mail" folder on your email account? Often, we find that customers have received their order confirmation email, but it has been automatically moved to the junk mail folder and so they don't see that it has arrived.

If you made your purchase from the Skyestream Shopcart and have not received your confirmation email with your license code, then please contact our Technical Support team at: techsupport@skyestream.com

If you made your purchase from one of our partner resellers (eg Nokia Software Market / Handango / Mobile2Day etc) and you have not yet received your confirmation email and license code, then please contact the reseller from whom you made your purchase.




"Error: Connecting"
If you see this error when trying to register your license code, this could mean that you are having problems accessing the Internet. 

1. Have you tried using a different access point on your phone? By default, you should have several access points depending on your service provider (eg WAP, MMS, Internet). Where possible, you should use the Internet Access Point. Try connecting using this access point before proceeding.

2. Check if your phone's built-in Internet browser works. Launch the built-in Internet browser on your phone and try to browse to a well-known Internet site (eg http://www.skyestream.com). If that doesn't work, then check your access points are properly configured. Also verify that you do have internet access with your service provider.

3. If neither of the above work, and you are still not able to gain access to the Internet while registering your software, then don't worry, we can provide you with an alternative licensing solution. Send an email to our Technical Support team at: techsupport@skyestream.com




"Error: License Server not available" OR "Error: Server error"
This indicates that our server is currently unavailable. Very rarely, Skyestream may temporarily take one of our servers offline for maintenance purposes. If you are unlucky enough to try registering your product during one of these times, then please be patient and try again later.



"Error: License code invalid" OR "Error: Bad license code, please try again"
1. "Error: Bad license code." This is generally if you have entered the incorrect license code and it doesn't pass the  initial scan for validity. Double check your license code in your confirmation email and try again.

2. "Error: License code invalid." The license code was not recognized on our server as being valid. Either you have entered an incorrect license code or your license code has been removed from our server. 




"Error: License code not valid for this product"
This error can occur if you have purchased the incorrect version of software for your handset. For example, you may have purchased "SkyeCaller", but then installed "SkyeCaller for S60 3rd Edition". These are in fact two different products and their respective license codes are not compatible with each other. We will have to re-issue you with the correct license code to correct this error, please send an email to our Technical Support team at: techsupport@skyestream.com



"Error: License code frozen"
You will receive this error if you have carried out license registration too many times. Occasionally, users uninstall their products and then at some later point re-install their product. This is fine, but if a user does this too many times, we consider it to be suspicious activity and so we automatically lock the license code. If this has happened to you and you have a valid explanation as to why you have had to re-register your software so many times, we will be more than happy to reset your license code so that you can complete registration again. Please send an email to our Technical Support team at: techsupport@skyestream.com



"Error: License code already used on another phone."
If you see this error, then one of the following applies to you:

1. You have upgraded your phone and wish to move your software to your new phone.
2. You have exchanged your phone due to fault and wish to re-install your software on your replacement phone.
3. You are illegally attempting to use your license again on a different phone.

POLICY: RE-ISSUING LICENSE CODES
It is Skyestream's policy that once a license has been registered on a customers mobile phone, it may not be transferred for re-use on a different phone. Unfortunately, our licensing system cannot differentiate between a genuine upgrade or replacement scenario as described in (1) or (2) above and an outright attempt at software piracy as described in (3) above. For this reason, we need to strictly enforce this policy. Please do not ask us to reset your license code for use on your new phone. We apologize for any inconvenience that this might cause.
