SketchUp 2018 Pro - Cannot add License

[thorewitt]

I got a new laptop and installed SketchUp 2018 Pro again, but I cannot add my license.

I get this message:

" Bummer, It looks like you’re offline.
You must be online to add or remove SketchUp licenses. Please try again next time you are online."

I have tried disabeling my firewall and then tried to add my license, but it didn’t help.

What to do??

SketchUp (desktop version) thinks you don't have an Internet connection

Since about a month ago there has been an increase in the number of forum posts and support requests, where SketchUp is showing a message about how you need to have an Internet connection to do that feature. The features affected would include Add location, Generate Report, 3D Warehouse, and Extension Warehouse. It also would prevent you from being able to add a Classic license, or use an existing Network license. Some extensions may be affected too, if they rely on having an Internet connection…
