Unable to expand a startup or enthusiast licence

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I've been using Fusion360 as an Enthusiast since last year.

Yesterday I've got an term notification email from Fusion360 and I did expand my startup license as instructed but it didn't work.

Please help me with this problem.

My OS is win 8.1

Best,

At the moment, you can only renew once the entitlement expires.

We are aware that this needs some work and working towards improving this experience. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Hi Jueun,

Thanks for sending your account information over email. I was able to extend your startup status for another year. Once again apologies for the inconvenience and let me know if can be of further assistance. Thanks so much for your continued use of Fusion 360.

I too have recieved an email message to renew my enthusiast license and have the same issue (can't submit).  Is it still required to let the license expire before renewing?

Hi Dirtboat,

Unfortunately, this is still the case where startup renewals don't work until your current term fully expires. We are actively working to address this issue and are hopeful to resolve it in the next few weeks.

Thanks so much for your continued use of Fusion 360.

Unfortunately, this is still the case where startup renewals don't work until your current term fully expires. We are actively working to address this issue to make the warning more visible in product before it expires. 

For now, you just have to wait until the license expires. When it does, you will get an inproduct notification that the term has expired. After that, you can follow the instructions in the below link to renew your start-up license.

Please click on the link in my previous post to see how to sign up for a start-up license of Fusion 360. You have to click on the red box that show term expired in the product itself. 

I hope that helps!

If you go to the help > About dialog in Fusion 360, what does the active plan field say?

Thanks,

I have included a snap shot of the help screen , I do not see what you requested 

[innovatenate]

@Anonymous Sorry for the confusion... I noticed in your previous screenshot that the save command appears to be active, which may indicate you have an active license. 

If you go to the Help > About dialog, there is a field that reads active plan.

I'm curious if this field is there and reads what the active license is on your system. Could you share a screenshot of the About dialog?

I hope that helps. 

Thanks,

here it is

Thank you for the update and sorry for all the trouble.  Have you recently edited your Autodesk ID to modify the e-mail address?

If possible, it would be great to get a copy of your diagnostic log files.

As a potential solution, can you try removing the Web Services directory and then starting Fusion 360 to see if there is any change in behavior?

To do this:

1. Browse to the below directory in Finder:

Macintosh HD > Users > USERPROFILE > Library > Application Support > Autodesk

2. Right click on the Web Services directory and select Move to Trash

3. Start Fusion 360 and see if there is any change in behavior.

I'm going to have your account investigated to see if we can spot any issues. I look forward to your update! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

here is the log files

also I did not change my email from the one you mentioned   gregore at me.com

I will try the restart as you suggest , I just hate doing so because fusion 360 takes everything on my dock and throws it onto the screen  on start up.

Thanks for the log files! 

I'm seeing some network connection errors in the log file. I suspect these are attributing to this issue. 

20161024T075432 E Network failed request - response NOT OK: https://developer.api.autodesk.com/wipdata-serv/storage/v3/system ...response: HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized

At some point, I see a spot where the subscription updates to student, but I still suspect the network issues may be contributing to the issue.

Are you running Fusion 360 on your home network or a school network? Do you know if there is a proxy server, anti-virus software, or a firewall that may impact the network communications in your current network?

Do you have any difficulties accessing the below webpage in a web browser?

Do you have any trouble creating, uploading, or saving design?

I look forward to your reply.

Thanks,
