Mockup is missing in Illustrator

I’m trying to use the Mockup Beta feature in Illustrator, but it's missing for some reason, so I can’t do the mock-up product. Despite watching many tutorials, I still don’t know why. Just in case I did something wrong: I downloaded an image to use for the product then used my own artwork designed on Illustrator as a logo. Is this the correct procedure to use for a mock-up? 

Thank you.

    @Monika Gause Thank you for your response. After many tried and tested, I have since realised what was wrong. It was my logo, which included some effects that the mock-up feature didn’t like. The issue has been resolved, and I can now use the mockup tool.

    Hi, thank you for your response. I have 30.4 version and I updated it just yesterday after running into this issue but still nothing changed. I live in Australia.

    Hi ​@Nat_Felvus1066,

    Mockup can be found under Window > Mockup. Once you find the tool, you should be able to use it, no problem.

    Hi Tina,

    Thank you for your response. I wish it’s as simple as you said. I tried all of the things that I can think of that might help - updated, checking version (30.4) but unfortunately still nothing changed.
