Did you create an account with them. They have a strange way of activating your purchase. You have to launch the app, find the "activate" option (I think it is in Help, maybe Preferences), and select that. Then it will ask you to log into your account. Once you log in, it will be "activated". I agree it is a "stupid" way. I prefer they simply send me a license code I enter. But Cie la vie!

You can do it in Elements. I think the real "magic" takes place by doubling the resolution first. There are Youtube videos on how to do that. It helps a lot with noise reduction and sharpening.
