I don't know how to make a second account, my first account bought a subscription to start with then start d living off plexus, I make a trial account now and plan to use plexes on that and it says that http://puu.sh/biTmm/327639dde4.png

How do I get around this?

Well, this is what i did when i started my second account.

Buy plex with isk.
Leave it in a can in a safe. Care with this.
Log with second account and warp to site.

Make sure you are in the same corp.

You can't have a paid account and a trial running on the same PC at the same time.

You could contract the PLEX to your new alt.

See post 3, also don't ever move PLEX out of a station. There is never a reason to do this.

I know. Save the can in corp locations. Log off and then log in with the other account.
Warp to the can, take the plex and activate it in a station. You can't activate it in space.

It seems you have 2 trial accounts?

If you just upgraded 1 of them from trail to subcription; give it a moment (like a day to be sure)

I needed to do that because a trial account can't accept contracts.

Gotcha. Then its probably about trying to log them in at the same time I'm guessing. That isn't possible.

you can not run a real account and trial account at the same time.

however, you can buy a plex, right click it and you should see an option to gift it to another account, type in your new alts name and boom done.

as explained here Donate time

If you do this make sure no-one else is selling PLEX at that station. Otherwise you will make a PLEX seller very happy.
