Scientific American forgot to tell me how to activate my digital subscription. Here's how.

When I renewed Scientific American last September I had a “deal” that included 1 or 2 freebies and digital service for $40. (Today I’d use Amazon — $35, much easier to manage, great subscription manager, etc).

The magazine eventually showed up but not the free extra book/special edition and not the digital service. Maybe there was an email that went into my spam filter, but I have gotten other email from them.

Turns out I had a digital service all along. I went to their customer service site and followed a link to manage my subscription account. From there I saw a link to activate digital service. That worked.

Now I have to figure out what happened to the freebies.
