Adding TimeClick to a new computer? Moving TimeClick from one workstation to another? Either way, the steps are simple. This guide walks you through both in about 2 minutes.
Before You Start
You'll need:
A running TimeClick Server
Your TimeClick version
- TC 25 → System Info → My Version
- TC 21 or older → Help → About TimeClick
OPTIONAL: Your server's IP Address
- TC 25 → System Info → Connected (the server IP address is shown next to it)
- TC 21 or older → Connection
Only needed if the new workstation cannot auto-connect.
1. Install TimeClick on the New Computer
On the computer you're adding or moving TimeClick to:
- Go to timeclick.com/download
- Select your version, then click Client under Install to download the workstation installer
- Open the downloaded file to begin installation (takes ~45 seconds)
2. Connect to Your TimeClick Server
After installation, TimeClick should open automatically.
- If the employee list appears normally
You're all set. The workstation connected automatically. - If TimeClick asks for your Server IP Address
Follow the Find Your IP Address guide, enter the IP address, and click Connect. - If you see "License Count Exceeded"
Follow the Fix License Count Exceeded guide to remove unused workstations and free a license slot.
3. If Moving TimeClick: Stop Using the Old Workstation
If you're moving TimeClick from one computer to another:
-
On the old computer, open the Control Panel and go to Programs & Features.
-
Find TimeClick in the list and uninstall it. (This only removes the program from that workstation; your data stays safe on the server.)
You may also simply stop using the old computer without uninstalling. If TimeClick flags too many devices, run Fix License Count Exceeded to clear the old one.
Questions About TimeClick Workstations
Does each workstation need its own license?
Yes. Every device that runs TimeClick, phones included, counts as one device on your license, and a 1-device license runs on one computer only. To add a computer, you can upgrade by paying only the difference between licenses. See TimeClick pricing for each license size.
Do I need to move my data to the new workstation?
No. Workstations read and write to your TimeClick server, so your data stays on the server. To move the server itself, see how to move your TimeClick server.
