Activating a trial version of RoboHelp

I'm using a trial version of RoboHelp and have created the
max number of pages. I would now like to purchase RoboHelp, but I
don't know if my work will be maintained. Do I simply need to copy
the folder over to the new install.
I did read that I must uninstall the trial before installing
the full version. Does anyone have some suggestions?

Hi Moosegolfr
Good to hear of another 'RoboTrialler' becoming a real
'RoboHelper'! It really is a fabulous product.
If you have created your project within the actual RoboHELP
directories, you will need to copy the entire project directory to
a different location. When you uninstall, most of the RoboHELP
directories (if not all) will go, so you would most likely loose
your project.
I always create my project directories in their own
independant directory.
Regards

Where is the Real Trial Version of RoboHelp 7

Support says there is a Splash page - well that has not
appeared either. All I did was download a trial version and it
extracted, etc. Got to the registration page where it prompts for
SN. Has anybody tried the trial yet?

Welcome to the forum.
The page with the field for a registration number should also
have an option to proceed without it. The trial works on XP or
Vista but not Windows 2K.

Activating a trial version

Hi I have a 30 day Lightroom Trial. I have purchased from Amazon. How do I activate my trial version?
I cannot see anywhere to enter a serial number.
Do I have to reload from the DVD when I receive it?
Can I load the Apple and Windows versions from the DVD? I have a MacBook Pro and a HP PC running windows.

Can't install a trial version of RoboHelp 11.

There's always an error at the Initializing stage. It tells me to restart and turn off firewalls, etc., but I can't turn off Windows Defender.

Tech support at my school knew how to give me permission to install. Didn't need to turn off any firewalls or malware programs.

RoboHelp 10 Trial Version Download Link Not Working

I have tried on multiple browers to download the trial version of RoboHelp 10. Each time, it shows an error message after I select the language and click "Download."
I called Adobe support and they said they couldn't help me: all I can do is post the problem on this forum. How stupid is that? I am potentially going to buy this product and I cannot even download it! Talk about bad sales on their part. (I wonder how the MadCap Flare folks would respond if I had the same problem? I'm just sayin'...)
But I digress...
Does anyone have a link that actually works?

Hello!
Thanks for the quick response.
I have tried I/E 9 and Firefox 17. In I/E, I get the standard "Page not found" message; in Firefox I get "File not found."
I don't have the Akami Downloader, and the option was never given to download it before I tried to download the trial. I searched for it and all the places I found in my Google search require a purchase.
Here is the Adobe page for Akami: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/akamai-download-manager-faq.html#main_Wh ere_do_I_download_the_Akamai_Download_Manager_.
I then found this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/tech-comm-suite/kb/troubleshoot-akamai-download-manager-3.html#main _Download_the_trial_directly. I clicked the link to the Adobe downloads page and no where in the list of products does it show Akami.

Is it just me having a dumb blonde moment or is this really screwed up?

RoboHelp 6 for Word Trial Version

I downloaded and installed the trial version of RoboHelp 6. I
am able to run RoboHelp HTML but can not run RoboHelp for Word.
After I select the desktop icon for RoboHelp for Word, I am
prompted to open one of the sample projects. I select a project and
click OK. I then receive a Windows error stating that the
application must close. Once I click Don't Send Message, RoboHelp 6
for Word closes.
I am running Windows XP sp 2 and Word 2003. I do not have any
prior versions of RoboHelp installed on this computer. The computer
meets the system requirements for RH 6 installation.
Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.

Welcome to the forum.
Did you install with your login and does that have admin
rights? If not the install will fail.
There's a topic on my site about installing RoboHelp.

Can't seem to activate trial version of Photoshop Elements 6 (Mac)

I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop Elements 6 for my Mac earlier this morning to check it out and purchased a license online not too soon after. The serial that was sent to me from Adobe's shop does not seem to work in activating the trial version I have installed. I've been on hold for tech support for almost an hour now. Does anyone know how to get Photoshop Elements for the Mac up and running using a serial purchased from Adobe's shop?

Thanks for the response. I was hoping it wouldn't come down to that, but I decided to redownload the program (using the new link they provided) while on hold for tech support (which never answered in the hour I was waiting ) and reinstalled using that instead. I found out the 'proper' way of removing PSE from a response you gave in a previous thread and proceeded with the uninstall program. The newly downloaded file installed and updated without a hitch. Thanks again for your help!
I love how Bridge can be used to import my images from my camera to where I want them to go as well as organize my photo collection. Not only does it display a preview of my selected image, but it also displays various other information associated with my photos as well. There's practically no need for me to keep iPhoto in my Dock anymore!

Issue regarding RoboHelp8 trial version

Hi, I downloaded the Trial Version of RoboHelp 8. I wanted to use this to work on a project file of size 60 MB. The output is a Web help. Up until now, this project has been done using RoboHelp 7. So I was opening the RoboHelp 7 files in RoboHelp 8. It took a long time for me to open the file and after that the Windows hour glass icon was appearing every few seconds making it difficult for me to perform any action. Adddinig to this, when I managed to insert some content, the application threw an error message and forced me to close the file. When I tried to open the file again, it is taking forever and of course the hour glass is back indicating that it is still processing something.
Another point to be noted is that this trial version is installed on my VDI and the whole project has to be worked using my remote desktop. So it is a scary combination of VDI+trial version+huge project file+conversion from 7 to 8.
Could anyone help me resolve this issue please?
Thank you
Anuradha

Apologies.
I am not working at home. In my office, I have my machine (local) and from this machine I need to access another VDI which is in the UK because most of my work files are placed in this VDI and I work on VDI only. So both the project files and RH are on the VDI.
So I log on to my local machine.
Then through citrix I connect to the VDI to work.
Hope I am not confusing you.

Installing AE7 whilst running trial version of AE12 in the cloud?

I am using (day 7) a 30 day free trial of After Effects 12.1.0.168 which is in the cloud. Do you think this may have something to do with the error that I get when trying to install AE7 from CD with serial number?
Question: If I de-activated the trial version - I'm Not sure how to do that yet? Do you think my installation from CD with serial number for AE7 would work on my MAC?
if I don't get an answer here on via Adobe's online chat then I'm going to uninstall the trial version and retry the Install CD again. Cross fingers.

After Effects 7 was created nearly a decade before Mac OS X v10.9 was released, so there was no way that we could have developed and tested that version of After Effects for that version of Mac OS.
You will need to use a more recent version. See the system requirements:

Trial Version Serial Number??

I have tried 8 times now to download and install the TRIAL
version of RoboHelp 7 on my PC. Each time it asks me for a serial
number. I do not get a splash page to select trial version versus
"I have a serial number" or anything.
I called "customer service" and the guy I talked to (Jason)
told me to delete the old files I'd downloaded, restart my
computer, then sign up with a different email address and try
again. I tried it and it didn't work. I've now tried 8 different
email addresses and I'm out. :)
I am supposed to do a project for work here in the next week
and it takes longer than that for the regular version to be
purchased by the powers that be.
Any other suggestions? Do you have multiple servers from
which to download and perhaps the download on one of those servers
only has the "real" version? Is there a URL I can go to directly to
download the actual trial version? I know it's possible because I
did it at home.
Thanks for any help you may be able to give me.
-Jenn

Peter:
THANK YOU! It's nice to know I'm not crazy. That is exactly
the problem.
I only wish the people in "customer service" would have told
me that when I called them to begin with. It would have saved me a
bottle of Excedrin and many hours of screaming in frustration.
I am getting RoboHelp 7, but the process takes a long time. I
was hoping to start contributing sooner, but I guess I won't.
Notice I had to select a new Nickname for the forum. After
using 8 different emails to try to get the download to work I've
forgotten which email goes with which nickname! This will make a
funny story to tell people when I can view it in hindsight.
Thanks again! I'll be using your site extensively when I
finally get RoboHelp 7 installed.

Aperture 2.0 Activation Key does not work after using older trial version

I was using the installed trial version of Aperture 1.5+ in my recently purchased MacBook Pro Duo (December 2007). After using the trial version for 30 days I debated whether to take the plunge ...and then within a few days recieved word that v2.0 was out at 199$. That motivated me ...however, here I am nearly one week later without ability to activate a full blown version of 2.0.
I recieved the activation key, but it doesn't accept it in the dialog to upgrade in the trial version. Hint seems to be that it is not a serial number I am entering but an activation key.
I did not order a boxed version, so what do I do now? Support is not too helpful as I have searched Apple's website and have no clue as to where to go.
Last resort ... I want my $199 back!

did you download the trial for Aperture 2

Adobe Captivate 6 activated but acts as a trial version?

Although activated, my Adobe Captivate 6 (eLearning Suite 6.1) acts as a trial version in a sense that Project Expiry Date is disabled and all my project expire after one month.
If I go to Help, the active option is: 'Deactivate....' so there is no way to sort this out by any means available in the application itself.
There is probably a similar behaviour in other elearning suite applications, but I am using only Captivate so I wouldn't know whether that is the case.
My PC is on the corporate network, the eLearning Suite 6.1 is installed only on my PC and I don't have the admin rights.
Is there an option to check the activation status and/or somehow reactivate it again, as it is really annoying to re-publish and upload to company's web portal e-learning files every month.

Hi there
You may need to completely uninstall and reinstall.
Cheers... Rick

Windows Server 2008 R2 - Trial Version Activation Error

I downloaded a trial of Windows Server 2008 R2 a few months ago. I may have loaded the ISO onto another PC for testing, but the testing is no longer active. However, I am testing a new environment where I need to load Server 2008 R2 onto
2 different servers for testing, before I activate. I will be purchasing keys once my lab is fully functioning if needed. One Virtual Machine will be moved to a server which will be running Server 2012 R2 Datacenter in the future.
Back to the problem at hand. When I try to Activate my Server 2008 R2 copy to get 180 days trial started, it errors out with 0xC004F074. We don't use a KMS Server, and anything I can find seems to refer to this as an error. I just need
to activate a trial version.

Hi,
Thanks for posting here.
Regarding the current issue, please understand this error code appears only during the time of activation when the Software Licensing Service reports that it cannot activate the product key
since the Key Management Service cannot be contacted. Please follow the steps below to activate the machine again to see if it works.
1) Open cmd(command prompt) with administrator rights
2) Type slmgr.vbs –ipk xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx (x should be replaced by your 25 digit product key)
3) Hit enter
4) Type slmgr.vbs –ato (This will change the product key)
5) Hit enter
For details, please refer to the following article.

User with an active Adobe ID on a paid subscription, tries to open InDesign CC and is prompted with a Login screen for the "trial version".

The user had the program open earlier today. But now, she can't open the program and gets prompted with the login screen. I don't want her to login as it mentions the "trial version" of the software. We have a paid subscription.
The application opens successfully on other work stations.
I am running the Adobe CC Installer update on her machine now.
Why did her login suddenly become deactivated?
