"you don't have a license to perform current action" AUGH!!!

I started with 2 credits
I wrote my initial base line Tune, and saved, then made changes to idle base only (+200rpms) and saved this tune so the truck would run while being able to make other changes at least that's what i thought.
window popped up and spent the credits to license the ecm etc, when i went to write the second tune with idle adjustment, we got the dreadful error message "you don't have a license to perform the current action, see pic below

I purchase 2 more credits, but decided not to use them, until hopefully some people on here could help????
it's an new MPVI3
