Default Unable to link Avid Master Account with iLok account "Failed to access the User ID"

I'm trying to activate a PTHD12 upgrade code and am unable to do so because I can't link my ilok account with my Avid Master Account. Each time I try to link it I get the error message: "Failed to access the User ID. Please try again."

And the login and password work on iLok.com right?

Yes. I am able to log in both at ilok.com and by way of the iLok license manager.

Cool. Sounds like Jeffro needs to look into this. Stand by.

Default Linking ilok account to avid Account

I am getting the following error
Failed to access the User ID. Please try again.

I can sign in on ilok.com and the ILM no problem - but can't link my ilok account to my Avid Account. Thus I am unable to register my Pro Tools license.
Not sure why this is so difficult Register this confirm address confirm email .....
lots of steps to even get Pro tools up and running.....

This is happening at avid.com/accountilok/DefaultILok?

I see that you updated your case with your iLok account info, and I see that Michael is working on it. I'll check in with him, thanks for your patience.

Found your case - there's an auto-reply that's sent to let you know the case got logged and it provides some info. An agent should be handling this soon, though you didn't include your iLok User ID in your description and I couldn't find an account based on your email address. Can you please reply to the email you got and put your iLok User ID at the top of the email? Please include any email address you would have registered your LE software to as well. Thanks!

looks like a problem on Avid's end - nobody can link an ilok account to an Avid account at all. It's not isolated to one user it's happening to everybody.
