Link to the logfile on Dropbox should have been sent via priv-mail.

The normal course of events when running the License Manager is that a small
message window opens: "Please wait while the license manager checkes for
licenses."  Then, seconds later, a bigger window opens up, requesting that I
enter the license number that IAR emailed to me.  (There are a couple of other
options: network lincense, which I think is just for the chargeable version of
their code; and Register with them to get a license, which is something you
could do if you want to try this directly.  We are talking about legally free
code here.)  After I have entered my license number and clicked Next, it goes
off for a few seconds, then comes back telling me "The lock criteria for the
specified lock selector is not available."

The same sequence of events happens with the smaller logging that you asked for
first.

With the new more detailed logging settings, after I click Next, it doesn't
come back within what I would think of as a reasonable time, even allowing for
the fact that it is generating a large log file, so eventually I have to kill
the process so I can get the log file.

I hope that's a better explanation.

I am entirely happy to do what I can to provide the information you need. 
There is another option, of course: you could register and download the code
and try it for yourself.  It just feels like one of those bugs that is
systematic, so I would expect you to see it too.  I bet the license manager is
common to all versions of the code.  I'm not trying to get out of making
effort; simply, you may wish to do things directly instead of via me. 
Otherwise we'll carry on as we are.
