Accept the license agreement at the next screen by clicking the Accept button.

You should now be done with the activation process, and can begin working in the application that you selected.

To confirm that you are signed in, your name should now appear in the upper right portion of the application window.

Once you are logged in, you will see the following screen:

The screen above will vary depending on which application you launched first. Simply click on the Start Using AppName button to begin working in the application.
