You have to be a bit more specific. What version of Mathcad/Prime? What works, and what doesn't?
For general information on installation and licensing see here:

For specific licensing problems you have to contact PTC licensing department. This form is for  and (mostly by) users of the software. We cannot help you with licensing.

Success!

retrieved.

Q: Can I transfer my Mathcad Prime license to a new computer?
A: In some cases, yes (proof of purchase required). Contact academicsupport@ptc.com.
