Support site lest me log a case but says my support is inactive. My license says its active. the Update killed my datalogger and I'm not sure of the case will even get reviewed. 

The “Renewals Toolkit Subscriptions Guide” which defines PTC terminology and covers a couple of our subscription concepts here at PTC is now available here.   The guide answers some of the typical questions our users may have around subscription topics.   Please share it with your peers and reply to this message board with any open questions you might have.  We can build meaningful collateral together. Thanks in advance!

Those of you who are on a subscription or on an active support contract, are entitled to upgrade to the latest version of Creo. With Creo 7 just recently launched, we have compiled a bunch of useful information on the new Creo Upgrade Resource Center.     We hope this addresses many of the questions you may have around upgrades, new functionality and where to find support from us for doing the upgrade.   Let us know if you think anything is missing!   Creo Upgrade Resource Center

Under https://www.ptc.com/support/preferences you can reset your preferences   BUT as a user of PTC Integrity Modeler (Note: NOT PTC Integrity) and Process Director I can't correctly select my preferences. In fact I can't get anywhere close.   I can't see anything related and nothing relating to WindChill either (which is where PTC IM now is).   Could someone please sort this out - even allowing Free text on the "other" screen would at least allow to to "collect" information on what people are coming to the portal to use.

When searching in Google Chrome, I get special characters on the webpage as shown on the attached screen shot.

There appears to be some problem with the 'related' articles section at the bottom of each knowledge base article.  Every article is now only listing itself.      

Yesterday I noticed that PTC Support Search does not return any PTC KB articles, only Community and Help articles are returned. I don't have and active filters and I checked with my colleagues, who have same problem. Check searches below for specific CS and even general search returns useless results.   This is very urgent matter! Thank you.

Not sure who manages the date code list in the case logger but Creo 6.0.4.0 is missing from the list.  I mentioned this to a TSE a while back but nothing has changed.  Someone needs to make sure this list stays in sync with the currently released products.  Thanks.

Hi there,   I was taking a Kepware course and suddenly the server went down. At the moment of posting this, www.ptcu.com is still down.   I'd appreciate you notify me when is up again.   Regards, Nahuel

There seems to be a problem searching the support knowledge base with words in all CAPS, even if the results contain these same words.   For example, here is a snippet from a log file:     Copying and pasting this into the search results returns nothing:     Changing the last six words to not be capitalized allows the search to return the correct article:     Should search really be discarding words in all CAPS?
