Windows aren't restoring

1Open System Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Accessibility.

2Make sure Putback is in the list and switched on.

3In Putback's menu bar panel, open More options and check it says Pause Putback, not Resume Putback.

A window landed on the wrong display

Putback restores the last layout it saved for that display setup. If an app keeps ending up somewhere you don't want, open Layouts… (⌘L) from the menu bar panel, go to Rules, and add a per app rule, for example "Always on Display 2" or "Ignore". Pinning a layout also stops drift during the day.

Licenses & purchases

Your license key is the whole account: paste it in Settings then License to activate a Mac, and share it within your household or team up to your tier's limit. Lost the key, or need to free a spot on a Mac you no longer have? The license portal handles both, no account needed. Need more Macs? Upgrade there too, on the same key, and you only pay the difference.

Deploying to a team

No per seat accounts: one key activates up to 20 Macs. Each Mac activates it in Settings, then License. Need more than 20 Macs? Email us for volume licensing.
