Shimano SPD-SL Cleats Won't Lock

Hello All,

I can lock my new cleats to the pedals by hand, but when I bolt them onto my shoes the back won't lock in. Any suggestions? Thanks!

What size shoes? Sometimes w/ small shoes the curve of the sole is too much, the cleats get too much curve in them to clip in. Or your soles might just have a lot of curve no matter the size. Or...you're doing it wrong? Nearly impossible to say w/o seeing your shoes/cleats, and pedals.

A short video clip would be helpful here.
