Default Connecting to tdameritrade

I am trying to tools>account connection>external data feed>add
tdameritrade with my ninjatrader in simulation mode but tda does not appear among the providers in the pick up list (when invited to 'Enter your general account connection information'). During the installation, I have got the message that the type library ninjatrader.client.tlb could not be registered, but continue has taken the installation to the end and the application seems to work fine otherwise. Any hint would be appreciated.

Hello stbtrader,

Please send a note to support[at]ninjatrader[dot]com referencing this forum thread and request for a free license.

Enter the license you will receive at Help-->License Key and you should be able to select TD AMERITRADE as 'Provider' upon creating a new connection.
