Hi , sorry you're having this issue.

 

Are you seeing any specific error messages? You say Viveport won't launch - do you mean via the Vive desktop shortcut?

 

Normally Viveport-purchased titles will not be found via the Steam desktop client, although they should be able to be launched via SteamVR (ie in VR). Are you seeing Viveport titles in SteamVR, or not?

 

Finally can you confirm that you're signed in with this account? Did you sign out or sign-in again? If you are signed in with a different account, it's possible that's why you're unable to launch your apps.

, are you sure you're logging in with the same account that you previously purchased titles on? It's easy to get confused, especially if you're logging in with a social account (Steam, Facebook, Google+).

 

To check what 'type' of account you're logged in with, check your profile here. (Log in if you need to.) There under the account's email address, you'll see whether you're using an HTC login, or a different one. Whatever you're using, check the alternatives and see if your games are on those accounts. If you're still having issues after that, let me know.

 are you using any anti-virus software? Earlier versions of Viveport could be affected by some anti-virus software. If you are, please try to make sure you're allowing Viveport access - possibly by selecting it to be in an 'anti-quarantine' area in your anti-virus software.

 

You may have to reinstall, but you won't lose anything - you may have to redownload apps, is all.

I have the same problem... Registered using my Facebook account, installed Vive so it shows in Steam. But when I start it I receive a message on the computer (don't answer) Vive. In the glasses I see a square saying "Waiting for Vivehome" and three lines blinking "III". No matter how long I wait (waited for 15 minutes, rebooted my computer and so on) I still receive the same message and ... nothing.

I have purchased some games here at Viveport and as I understands it they will show in this VIVE app in Steam.

How can I solve this?
