PTC Education

We are a FTC team based in London formed last year and looking to improve our skills and be more competitive for next season. A PTC mentor would be really helpful as we have switched to using OnShape and feel that more CAD support and overall engineering design feedback would be really useful. I’ve checked the website however I’m not sure how to get in touch with a PTC mentor so does anyone know if I have to email or contact anyone specifically? 

I am an Aerospace Engineering student and i want to try this software.I would like to know what are the differences between the University Student version and Full Version.Thanks!

Am installing a single use version of Mathcad. Never received a product code so I cannot get past this step. I have scoured my emails from PTC and searched everywhere on the website that I can access to no avail. Thoughts would be welcome!

Could you please let me know the product code for this item?

Hello,I was using Creo Parametric 10.0.9.0 (standard version) with an Academic license.Recently, I received a notification that my license was about to expire, so I reinstalled Creo and tried to activate it again. However, I found that my Academic license is no longer available, and I cannot use it anymore.I have already requested a new Academic license, but it is still being processed.I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same issue. Is this a temporary problem with the PTC licensing system, or is it only affecting my account?Any information or shared experiences would be appreciated.Thank you!

Hi, I created a PTC.com Academic Account and downloaded Creo 12 University Edition. When I try to generate a node-locked license in the Installation Assistant ("Node Locked License Generation"), I'm redirected to my.ptc.com/licensing/dashboard and get the error "Access denied – insufficient privileges". I did not receive any Sales Order Number (SON) by email, only the account confirmation email. How can I get my academic license activated?My Host ID is: 4E-23-38-06-80-1FThank you!

I have the Creo Education license and my simulate tab is greyed out. How to solve this.

In a n assembly, I want to edit a part with all the rest visible. So I click 'Activate' and make my changes. I cannot find a way to 'deactivate' and go back to normal assembly mode, though. The only way I have found is to save everything, close creo completely, and reopen. How do I Deactivate?

Hello, we require an Education K-12 license for Mathcad. We are a public sector IT service provider managing IT systems for 100 schools in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany. Can you contact us?

Hi,My student license of Creo 8.0 just expired, and I am running into an issue with relicensing it.  I deleted the old license file located in C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing.  I then go to the path of C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 8.0.0.0\Parametric\bin, right click on reconfigure.exe and Run as Administrator.  I select to allow app to make changes on my device.  When the Installation Assistant opens, “Reconfigure licenses in an existing installation” is the only option to select, so I hit “Next”.  On the Licenses page, I open the Node Locked License Generation and enter BK800908EDSTUDENTEDUNI.  After that, a dialog box opens where I sign in with my PTC account, and I hit okay.  Then the Installation Assistant shows Processing for a while, and then it just shows Error!  What am I doing incorrectly here?  I’ve included a picture of the error page on the Installation Assistant. 

I am attempting to download the schools edition of creo 8.0. I downloaded the creo 8.0 zip file from the ptc academic program-free download page. i then unzipped the file and ran the installer as an admin. I went through the introduction and software agreement section and am now on the licenses tab. I have entered the provided student license entry product code of BE800908EDSTUDENTEDK12 under the node locked license generation section and signed into my account, but it just says processing then swaps to error. What am I doing wrong?

Hello,I am using Creo 12 University Edition with my student account.My license file contains Host ID 34-DE-89-85-DD-22, but my current system MAC address is 60-FF-9E-19-AC-B8.

Hello, I’m attempting to solve a polynomial using the solve function however my solutions are continually being shown as long expressions rather than singular numbers. I’m fairly confident there’s an issue with the units as some of the units are blacked out in the solver box, see below.I’ve tried toggling the “Units/Constraints in Symbolic” option as this seems to have helped others with similar problems but that doesn’t seem to be working for me. Any suggestions/solutions are greatly appreciated.  

I was unable to create new local attributes even after running the AddColumns wt.part.WTPart String=1 query in the Windchill shell. Although the attribute columns were successfully added to the wt.part.WTPart table and the corresponding columns are visible in the database, the new local attributes are not being created still getting same old error “ A string attributes cannot be created because database columns of the following datatype are not available

Hello, I am a student trying to install Creo 12 Academic Version. I am encountering a persistent issue during the licensing step: The Issue: After entering my Product Code (BK...), the installer displays a green "Success" status. However, I cannot proceed, and the generated license file in C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing is empty (0 KB). Technical Details: Version: Creo 12.0 Host ID: [Available upon request for PTC Staff] Product Code: BK120908EDUNIVERSITYED Troubleshooting already done: Ran the installer as Administrator. Disabled Windows Firewall and Antivirus. Verified that the Host ID matches my active network card (other adapters were disabled). Cleared the Licensing folder and attempted a re-install. Verified that the "Controlled Folder Access" in Windows is disabled. Despite the server validation (Success), no data is written into the .dat file. Could you please provide a valid license file or reset the activation for my Host ID? Thank you for your help

Hi, I got a new PC today and would need to transfer Creo Parametric Student Edition over. I have a Node-locked License Key from my University, but that obviously doesnt allow installation on two machines simultaneously. I have removed Creo from the old machine but still cannot get the license to work on the new one - how do I do that? Thanks!

I’m trying to install Creo Parametric with a student license, but while the code I was given generates a Success, the installation tool doesn’t recognize the license created and gives the error “invalid file or format”. I checked the .dat file created with the Notepad app, and it’s indeed empty. I haven’t received a mail with the license, as other threads suggest, so don’t really know what to do

I've tried to install the software with the education product code provided . When inputing the code, after login with the ptc credentials , the software created a .dat file but was empty and the instalation software kept saying incorrect or wrong format file. Afte trying 3 times the same procedure with the same result, now when i tried again it says :"you have reached the maximum number of licenses request available for your product type"
