Device information
* Device plan: Free
* Status: Unverified
* Device type: Portable
* Key: xxxxxxx
* Latest reports: 0
It is running on my machine, but i guess if there is no API number
there is no point to it.

It would be good if they would show that on the same page as the
Device Key. I assumed "profile" was just personal info related to my
account.
I have now entered the Device key and and API Key but it still says
"unverified".
I will check other threads for info on that.

I'm running ubuntu 11.04 and installed Prey v0.5.3, and it was quite
difficult to get to know what to! First of all, why doesn't the damn
API key change its name to profile key, user key, or whatever more
meaningful. Maybe it will help users to realize they should go check
the profile web page to get that key.
Also, it would be really nice if one could easily find out that you
have to run
sudo nano /usr/share/prey/config
to enter the keys, and then
sudo /usr/share/prey/prey.sh --check
to check how it is working.
I don't mind using the terminal .... if I know what to do!

The API key is for accessing the Prey API, so I doubt it will get renamed.
The README is a good place to start, it will be inside the Prey folder, or you can read it on the source repository (scroll down).

i am sorry to say that for me (in austria) the installation-process is not working, too.
what happened: i registered (okay, the confirmation-email needed about 5 hours to reach me).
happy i downloaded the installer and started - but there is "no connection to the server".
using "check.bat" i see everything is "ok", but at the end there is "no api-key error 401".
i disabled antivirus and firewall, too. no difference.
there seems to be a major problem with your service :-(

You say you got the confirmation email about 5 hours after registering for
an account. Did you follow the instructions in the email to confirm your
account? You might try doing that again.

of course i did that :-)
i just reset my password now just to be sure this works, too.
what i find irritiating is the difference in the setup-dialog between
- new user
- existing user
the text says to use
"new" if this is the first time you installed prey OR you still havent
created an account
"existing" if you already signed up AND wish to add this cimputer to
your account
what i did:
registering via the website
in the meantime i used the recommende "forgot password" method to
initiate a second-confirmation-email
confirming my email
downloading the software
running the setup-program
neither of these options fits for me. if i try to use "new" (which
would be correct) there comes the same error. the dialog doesnt look
fitting, i do not want to create including my name and confirm my
password twice....

It is a little unclear what you mean by entering your password twice…
If you can show us the dialog it may make things clearer.
Drew

of course I try to use the "existing" dialog because I have a verified account...
d01: theses options are not fitting for my situation.
d02: here I should enter all my account-information again, makes no sense with my verified account
d03: this is what I use :-)
