Enter the code you previously received. One code works for all computers you own.

Yes, letters and numbers can screw things up. And let's not go into the copy/paste from certain mail programs into other programs inserting <cr> or <lf> (or both) when you don't use the correct paste command (I remember when you didn't have to use the <shift> key to say "yes, just what I copied!") to the computer.
