Did you buy a subscription? Then you can use that website/portal for help. if not, then please answer basic questions here:
Is this a new problem? Or is this a new installation?
Windows version?
Did it use to work before today?

[Anonymous]

It has been working since July 2013 on windows 8.1. It used to work perfectly

Nevermind, I found the solution. I had to go to Services (on win 8) then change FlexNet to Manual, then click start, then it worked and loaded correctly. I then changed FlexNet service to automatic. Hopefully my pc will work after restart!

I had the similar issue with my LT 2012 running on win7. I am not using AutoCAD LT that often but I suspect it stopped working after and automatic update of my PC done by system admin.

[Anonymous]

I am having this problem after installing a Windows 10 update.  Is there any way to get my AutoCAD LT 2014 to open again?

Welcome to the community..

Acad LT 2014 is not supported on Windows 10.  So you will run into issues.  Make sure you have service pack 1 installed and you may want to try and reset Acad LT back to its default settings.
