TTC Activation- Remove Enhanced Security

TicTie Calculate version 5.x and 6.x. See our How to Check Your Version article for more information.

Some users may experience issues with TicTie, Calculate activating and/or staying activated. This is due to a security setting in Adobe® that disables third-party applications like ours. These scenarios are outlined below:

• The user activates the program, but then when they attempt to use a tool, like a calculator, they are be prompted to activate it again. 
• After installing the program, the plug-in does not display in Adobe®. 
• When trying to sign in to version 5.x or 6.x, they receive the message "Error Contacting Server. Check Internet Connection."

This article outlines the steps to disable that setting so you can use the program.
