List of accounts should now show that the account you added is active and registered. Should show a green circle with a phone handset and two arrows on the left of the account, and a circle with a checkmark at the right of the account showing that the account is selected to be active. If these results are not shown, it indicates there was an error registering the device to the account. If this happens, review the steps above and insure all data was correctly entered including proper capitalization of the password. If still unable to register, contact PHONEWARE support.
