Looks like I have to buy a new copy of SH5

[mapuc]

Ok the first thing I did after I had "learned my new computer" was to install SH5-after installation I got the message "Service unavailable" Well would you know, so I just toke the cd out of my (forgot the technical word for this thing) and put it back on the shell.

Now some hours ago I thought I will give it another try.

Put the cd into this drive and closed it a pop-up window opened I pressed the "autorun" and then I was told the game was patching and later the Uplay was being upgraded.

When finished I created an account and waited nothing happens Open and closed my DVD-driver and then a "enter-your-keycode-window opened I entered the code got the message-Following code is already in use.

WHAT !?
Oh then I remembered it's not the first time I have tried to play SH5 and thereby created an account. But what was my log on before.

It toke some time for me to remember it-I logged on and I could see my account. The first thing I wanted to do was to change my mail address-Got the message, after I had pressed the "Change" -"A message.....has been sent to you email-!!!???!!! Don't uplay or what the correct name is, know that a Person may have changed its email account and thereby dosen't have that anymore. I tried to find out how to send information about this, but couldn't find any.

SO-it looks like I have to buy a second copy of SH5.

Second, do these at Uplay don't understand that sometimes a person have to buy a new computer or reinstall the system.

Hi Markus
The Uplay security is totally unnecessary for 2016.
CD key.
Login.
Email address.
Password.
These are all locked to the above.
A long as you keep a record of these then it is not a problem unless there is a change.
A new computer means a new CD.
Fortunately SH5 is not expensive these days.

The problem is that every time I put my SH5 cd into my DVD-drive and click on autorun it ask for the key code and I have only the one that came with the game and then I get the message the code is already in use.

As mentioned some times I guess I have to buy another copy of SH5 but as you say they come cheap these days.

Where can I get a cheap SH5 DvD/CD? My links show that it will cost $30 at amazon. I can't see anywhere else to buy it.

You HAVE to be online to enter your name and password .
You HAVE to use the name and password you used when you first installed the game .

So, it is your account details that are important.
Login.
Password.
Email address.
Logging on to Uplay should recognize that you already have SH5.
It already has the cd key registered.

You're not the first person with this problem. Contacting ubisoft support seems to work well for others. : )
