When you pay with PayPal, Paddle records the email address on your PayPal account. That is often a different address than the one you typed into kJams.

kJams looks up your new subscription using the email stored in Preferences. If those two addresses don't match, self-activation can't find the purchase, and you get a "Subscription Not Found" dialog.

What to do

  1. Log into PayPal and find the email address on the account you paid with (PayPal SettingsAccount)
  2. In kJams, open Preferences and click the Store panel
  3. Click Edit e-mail address?
  4. Enter the PayPal email address and hit OK
  5. Click the License panel
  6. Click Recover
  7. kJams will send a recovery request for that PayPal address. Watch that inbox for a summary of your subscriptions. You can also use Enter ID with the Subscription ID from your Paddle receipt.

Once the PayPal email is the one kJams is tracking, Recover (or a fresh purchase-complete OK) can find the subscription.
