I’m using Ubuntu Pro (personal free editon) and I wanted to add my Ubuntu machine to Landscape since I have 1 registration available. Unfortunately after adding and trying to accept my machine I keep getting the error “not enough licenses available”.
Anybody and idea or is this just not working for free accounts?
After reading the OP’s post I decided to add one just to see (utilizing the Pro subscription page). As I have two active subscriptions, before attempting to add another which I used the live distro Plucky-Puffin [development build].
sudo pro attach <subscription number>
It was accepted (as it is development build I expected errors here) with the following output
This machine is now attached to 'Ubuntu Pro - free personal subscription'
No Ubuntu Pro services are available to this system.

so with that background information on my end. I wonder if the OP tried
sudo pro enable landscape
As this particular machine is a development stage release. I did detach it after checking it with my subscription which may take 24 or more hours to update. As the machine count on the subscription page does annotate beta next to the machine count.
Which may fix the OP’s issue … and would not surprise me in the least for it to take 48 hours for the subscription page to catch up.
The only other option I can think of barring buying a subscription, is to detach a machine to enable the addition of the landscape machine. Which again I’m sure 24 + hours comes into play here. (although I haven’t tried it)

Kevin glad it worked out , what guided me there was part of the output I seen a line of authorizing the attachment. In my test of attaching the machine (my backup server) . Which is why I wanted to test it before saying anything
