cant access cloud on 2nd installation

Hi, running beersmith2, latest build on my main PC. I recently replaced my 2nd machine which is a laptop, downloaded beersmith and uninstalled it from the old laptop. When I try to activate on the new laptop I get the message 'Activation succeeded, but the server could not be reached to activate your email -Please try again later using the activate command on the help menu' It seems to run OK on the new laptop but I cant log into the cloud and acces my uploaded recipes?
Any help much appreciated??

Thanks

Check your internet connection and firewall settings.  The fact that it could not reach the server either to validate your license or log into the cloud indicates you probably have a firewall issue - are you running a firewall on your laptop?

Thanks Brad, I'll check that out. Its  work laptop and most likely its extermely secure. Is there anything specific I need to enable re the firewall as I cant completely disable it?

You need to give the app (BeerSmith) full  access to the internet port 80 (which is the default port for browsers).
