Unauthorized Use - Please Purchase

[mikpen14]

Hey

I get this message that pops up every now and then saying that I am using an unauthorized version of FSPax yet I am using a purchased
copy. It doesnt do it every flight, just as I said above now and then. Im running Vista 64bit,

This is getting old quickly as I does it just as im getting ready to line up and if I have not shut the music off from the taxi, the music is on on
the whole flight and I cannot shut it off!

Uninstall FsPassengers then run the install as administrator by right clicking the .exe and selecting "run as administrator"

Good luck

Thanks for the fast reply Jambone, but I did run and install it as admin!

Hmmm...check here: http://www.fspassengers.com/?action=faq&question=19

[mikpen14]

Thanks

Found the problem. I moved the whole folder when I reinstalled it instead of just the database folder. When I had reinstalled FS9 before
on my old machine I had just moved the database folder. I obviously had a brainfart.

Thanks again Jambone

The same thing has happened to me, and I went through these procedures: (from the FAQ)

IF NOTHING WORK:
----------------
1-Save your flight database (see this FAQ : I want to reinstall FsP but I want to keep my company OR I want to backup my company )
2-uninstall completely FsPassengers, check, double check that the folder 'FsPassengers' in your flight simulator directory disappeared
completely.
3-Fresh Boot your computer - DON'T LAUNCH ANYTHING - (not flight simulator for example)
4-If you run Fs on window vista, right click on fs9.exe and select 'run as admin'
5-Install FsPassengers
6-Run flight simulator
7-Unlock with your unlock key.
8-Exit flight simulator, copy back your database folder.
9-Done.

Except, when I got to step 4- which was running FS as admin, It says "flight simulator has encountered a problem and needs to close" It
then took me to a page that had an update link for FS, which I installed and tried again, and I got the same message. I then rebooted and
tried again, still the same message. I was going to do an uninstall of FS but was hesitant because I have a few add on aircraft that I
somehow got on there, and don't want to lose. (I have absolutley no idea how to zip and unzip files, so if they're gone, they're gone for
good.) What should I do??

Thanks ahead of time for support.

Anybody please?? I'm on spring break and I can't play FS, it's painful. lol

Did you update FS9 before installing any add-ons?? Plus, if you say certain add-on aircraft somehow appeared within FS9, how in the
world did they get installed if you didn't install them? Zipping and unzipping files are really quite simple. Need some help with it? Let us
know.
Now, please be sure FS9 has been updated to FS9.1 before installing any add-ons. The Vista part I am unfamiliar with, as I run XP still.

[BOSflyer99]

Sorry for being unclear.

What I meant by the aircraft somehow appearing was that I had no idea what I was doing when installing them, but still somehow
managed to get them installed. (I have the PSS 757 and the Project Fokker F70/100) And yes I definitley need help with zipping and
unzipping files, because I'm clueless.

And yes I had the add-on aircraft installed before updating FS9, but after uninstalling FSpassengers and updating FS9, the game (FS9)
will no longer boot. (I get a message that says Flight Simulator has encountered a problem and needs to close.) So my question is what
should I do to fix this.

Sorry again for being vague, and thank you for taking the time to respond.

[Joeflyer]

Possibly you may need to reinstall FS9 again and then do the update for FS9. Also, make sure you have the latest DirectX as well. I have
heard of others having issues for not having FS9 updated before installing add-ons.

[BOSflyer99]

Will do. Thanks for the assistance.

[BOSflyer99]

It's fixed! thanks again

Glad to know things are working properly. Have fun!
