  - A verification code together with a verification link is sent to the email address provided. Warning: the spam folder should be checked if the email with the verification code is not received.
  - Once the validity of the email address is verified, the email address needs to be entered again in the password field.

== Install notes for Intel macs ==

If you experience a crash when trying to run a fresh installation of QtiPlot on a mac with an Intel chip, please perform the following steps:

  - Completely remove QtiPlot by moving the QtiPlot icon from the Applications folder to the bin.
  - Reinstall QtiPlot using the latest installer available for your chip (Intel).
  - Start QtiPlot from a terminal window using the -d option, by typing the following command: ''/Applications/qtiplot.app/Contents/MacOS/qtiplot -d&''

Point 3 is only necessary the first time you start QtiPlot, afterwards everything should work normally.
