For me, even after accepting the licence, I still get the "License isn't accepted" message. I Keep getting "Incorrect Signature".

[RichieRich]

Try entering /Your name/ as the signature

[PhilJ]

That did the trick Thanks

OK You guys left out instructions!

In the My Licenses section you have to set the FILTER to NOT WORKING.

Then you will see the Not For Resale License.
