# Activating AAM Plus Package?

 * I purchased AAM Plus Package, and got my confirmation email, but never received
   a license key necessary to unlock/install it.
 * I sent an email to the AAM team via their contact page, but have yet to receive
   a response of any kind.
 * Am I missing something obvious? Because right now this looks pretty sketchy. 
   If my 30$ isn’t going to actually get me anything, I think I might like it back.

 * It sends to the paypal email address from what I have seen. Be sure to check 
   spam too. Or all mail.
 * This is who sent me mine:
    WP AAM [support@wpaam.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/activating-aam-plus-package/support@wpaam.com?output_format=md)
   via gator3008.hostgator.com
 * Here is the email you can try searching for some of the words too:
 * Your payment processed successfully!
    You have been purchased AAM Plugin Manager
   extension for AAM 2.x. Your license key:

 * In case of any issues, please contact us via email [support@wpaam.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/activating-aam-plus-package/support@wpaam.com?output_format=md)
   or check the official forum.

 * I also purchased the AAM Plus Package, and received my paypal confirmation email.
   There was a receipt number on it, I tried using that as the key. It did not work.
   I have emailed [support@wpaam.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/activating-aam-plus-package/support@wpaam.com?output_format=md),
   and the email address listed on my receipt ‘whimba@gmail.com’. After sending 
   7 emails over the course of 2 weeks and not receiving a response, I’m starting
   to think I was ripped off. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

 * Hi Andy, I have had no responses. I found this information below – which states
   as the end that AAM can send an extension file for a manual installation. I sent
   them a copy of my receipt as proof of payment, and I still have not received 
   a response from [support@wpaam.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/activating-aam-plus-package/support@wpaam.com?output_format=md)
   or [whimba@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/activating-aam-plus-package/whimba@gmail.com?output_format=md).
 * Keep in touch if you hear anything.
 * Thank you,
    Rhonda
 * FAILED to Install Extensions. What should I do?

 * There are few reasons why you failed to Install Extension. All of them are listed
   below with proper approach to fix it.
 * REASON #1. Your license key is incorrect.
    SOLUTION : Make sure that you copied
   the license key from the email that was sent to you right after the purchase.
 * REASON #2. Your website does not allow to perform Remote Request. AAM uses wp_remote_request
   function to obtain the copy of requested Extension.
    SOLUTION : If your website
   is running through secured proxy or firewall, deactivate it during Extension 
   installation. Sometimes the reason can be that your website does not support 
   cURL. In this case, contact your hosting provider and ask them to activate it
   for you.
 * REASON #3. Your wp-content/plugins/advanced-access-manager/extension folder is
   not writable by PHP.
    SOLUTION : Make sure that PHP has enough permissions to
   write files inside mentioned above folder.
 * REASON #4. Your wp-content/aam folder does not exist or is not writable by PHP.
   
   SOLUTION : Make sure that mentioned folder exists and PHP has enough permissions
   to write files inside above folder.
 * REASON #5. Your website does not have ZipArchive PHP Library (in this case you
   are not able even update WordPress or install any plugins).
    SOLUTION : Ask your
   hosting provider to install the library.
 * In 99% if you are not missing anything, it should work. Otherwise, we can send
   the Extension for manual installation (Please notice! you will have to request
   the Extension each time you updated the AAM).

 * Unfortunately those instructions don’t apply to my situation.
 * I have emailed the [support@wpaam.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/activating-aam-plus-package/support@wpaam.com?output_format=md)&
   [whimba@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/activating-aam-plus-package/whimba@gmail.com?output_format=md)
 * I have also:
    …Sent Vasyl a tweet …DM him on twitter …Messaged him on FB …Messaged
   him on Linked In …Emailed him via his website info (vasyltech.com) – [vasyl@vasyltech.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/activating-aam-plus-package/vasyl@vasyltech.com?output_format=md)
   Finally he has a phone number on his website too of: 727-272-1853 and an address

 * Those instructions didn’t work for me either, as I never got a license key.
 * I’ve given up hope that Vasyl/AAM Support will respond, and tried several other
   plug-ins. I installed the Restrict User Access plugin, which is working well 
   for me. I have a login which provides restricted access to particular pages and
   posts. I still had to use AAM to create the roles I needed, unfortunately.

 * I received my key but it will not activate. Key getting the following error:
 * Failed to write file to wp-content/aam folder
 * I have emailed support 3 times with no response.
