Aperture Free Trial

I am delighted to find there is a 'try before you buy' option to Aperure. I've downloaded the trial application, entered my details for the trial serial number but Apple aren't sending me the serial number.
I've tried 2 different email addresses and still nothing. What could the problem be?

in this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=720766&tstart=0
it seems you should try once again or use a different browser in order to actually send message to apple. i, for one, did try first using safari but was not able to send apple anything. then using firefox everything went ok and got my serial number on my .mac account soon.
i can say that aperture is working fine on my powerbook. at this time i have worked out just 2.540 jpg imported from iphoto and lightroom libraries. maybe lightroom is a little bit faster in some adjustments. maybe 0.5"? i am looking forward to get raw and all others features aperture can offer. loupe is great!

Can you create a book from the Aperture free trial?

I have created a book on the Aperture free trial and can't seem to buy it. Is there any way I can or can I not buy a book off of the Aperture free trial?

The free trial is a fully functioning version of Aperture so you should be able to buy a book with it. What problems are you having?

Aperture free trial installation

I just downloaded the aperture free trial and cannot get it to open. every time I go to applications and try to open it, it just asks me to install it, again and again. what am I doing wrong?

A Pro-application needs a trial version - I agree.
Send feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/aperture.html, they will not hear you here.
But it will be also your loss, if you do not give Aperture a chance - it is really a great program.
You can learn a lot about Aperture by trying it out at the nearest Apple Store, and by looking at the resources (Tutorials etc.) at the Aperture Support page, also have a look at the Aperture 3 User Manual
You might just reconsider

Are RAW files able to be edited in the Aperture "Free Trial" download

I recently downloaded the free 30 day trial version of Apple's Aperture 3 after purchasing a Sony Alpha NEX-3 camera. It was my intention to use the trial as a tutorial for when I buy the actual program in a few weeks.
During a vacation, I used the NEX-3 to take several hundred photos, with the camera set to take both a JPEG image as well as a RAW image. I then downloaded the trial and set the Import settings to import both files with JPEG as the master. The RAW version of the file, however, will not display -- i get a message saying "Unsupported image format. I checked the Apple list of cameras of which Aperture supports the RAW format and NEX-3 was definitely on the list. However, when I veiw the file name for the RAW version of each photo, it is given thusly in the metadata: (file name).ARW. I am confused...
I would like to begin editing the RAW version of all of my photos before the trial expires. Did I do something wrong upon import? Can I change the file name in my camera so that the RAW photo files import as (file name).RAW instead of (file name).ARW? Is it as simple as the free trial not including the ability to edit photos in the RAW format? Or, am I just missing something simple? Please help before my trail expires at the end of the month...

You need to download the latest camera raw update from Apple.

Aperture free trial - later purchase of student edition

I want to get going with Aperture right away because I have little patience. I will be picking up the student edition next week, but wondered if I download the free trial if I can just enter the SN later?

yes you can.... i have the student edition and when i bought a new MBP i ran the migration assistant to migrate all my programs and files to the new laptop.
when i started Aperture is was the trial version which i thought was weird since i was using the full academic version on my old mac, but it saw my library and loaded it... anyway i then just put in my serial number from the academic version and it unlocked it/registered
you'll have the install disc when you buy the academic version anyway so you'll be covered either way.

I'm TRYING to try the 30 free trial of Aperture. It downloads fine, but the promised email with serial number (needed to activate) never arrives. I've double checked email address. Anyone have a solution?

This has been reported numerous times in the past. It seesms that from time-to-time the response system responsible for sending the key goes away.
Take a look at the More Like This box on the right hand side of this page. Some users have had success getting the key sent in various ways.

How do I get a copy of the free trial of Aperture 3?

I think I'm ready to try Aperture 3, but I'm not sure how to get a free trial of the program. Could someone let me know?

Here is a link to the Aperture Trial 3.1:

Aperture 3 trial installation question

I just received my free trial serial number and the instructions say to take Aperture 2 of my Application folder or rename it.
What folder would be best to put Aperture 2 into?

Hi karen2010 and welcome to Apple Discussions!
I simply renamed Aperture to Aperture 2 and then did the install. They are both there in the Applications folder. When I am ready I will just trash Aperture 2.
Best of luck.

Aperture: from trial to full

Hi all
i got a free trial version of Aperture and now would like to migrate to a full version via Mac AppStore.
What should be my list of actions?
Delete trial or leave it and install over it?
How should i manage a library in a trial in case i want to export it to a full version?
Appreciate your help.
Thank you

• Step one should be to determine whether you will use a Referenced or a Managed Library for Masters.
Use of a Managed-Masters-Library usually leads to huge Library and Vaults sizes slowing down hard drives operation at some point. I recommend using a Referenced-Masters-Library on the internal drive with Preview size set to be the size of your MBP display. Have two large external drives: one for Masters and Vaults and one or two for offsite backup of the Masters/Vaults external.
• Step two: If you choose to use a Referenced-Masters-Library you should make sure all Masters on the Trial version (if it has not already expired) are set to be Referenced. This will give you the smallest Library and least problematic changeover. OTOH if the trial is expired do not worry about it.
• Step three: Create a Vault for backup.
• Step four: Back up Masters that are not in the Vault.
• Step five: Buy & install the full version of Aperture.

Can't find iWork free trial version

Hi
I've been looking for the iWork free trial version download without success.
I found Aperture's.
TIA
Nick

Hi Kyn
Thanks for the tip. I installed it and could start evaluating it.
One of my issues is that the iMac display dimensions are non-standard and hence by default a presentation in PowerPoint of Keynote doesn't use the complete width. I found by chance the way to adapt the presentation proportions to the monitor.

Wish To Uninstall Expired Aperture 2 Trial

I tried Aperture 2 with the free trial, and decided I didn't want to buy into it just yet. I've let the trial expire, but the application keeps trying to open whenever I attach a camera or insert an SD card. I would like to do a complete uninstall of the application, but haven't found a way to do so. I don't get any relevant answers when I search "uninstall aperture" on Apple's support site.
I've read a number of people saying they uninstalled and then reinstalled Aperture 2, or the Aperture 2 Trial, while trying to solve various problems. Could someone tell me, how did you achieve the uninstall?
Thanks,
dgb

What have you done so far? Or are you asking in advance?

Why is no free trial available?

I need to download a free trial of Dreamweaver for Windows (PC) to do an important project for a college class, but I can't find a free trial. It looks like a new version of Dreamweaver (CS5) is coming out soon, so I can't find the CS4 trial anywhere. I only have access to this program at school, but I live 40 minutes away so I need to be able to work on this at home. I've even gotten so desperate that I tried downloading a free trial from some shady-looking sites, risking getting a virus. So far, none of the download links have worked. I can't afford to wait even as much as a week, because I need to create a website from scratch by May 6. If there is no free trial of Dreamweaver available, does anyone know of another type of website creation software that I could use to write the codes and CSS style sheet for my site, and then I could copy and paste them into Dreamweaver at school? I realize, since this is an official Adobe website, users may not be allowed to promote other companies' software, but if there's nothing available from Adobe right now I may have no other choice. I'm not very tech-savvy and I've never used software like this until a month or two ago, so I'm panicking about the shortage of time that I have for this project. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Based on pre-order information the release is imminent (estimated release 4/29). If you cannot wait and need a trial immediately there are 2 things you can do.
If you can get your hands on a disc, even at school, do so. Installing the software without a serial number will start the trial.
Otherwise, if you need a trial and you use Windows, there is Expression Web ( http://www.microsoft.com/expression/products/Web_Overview.aspx ). On the Mac side, I would say maybe RapidWeaver ( http://www.realmacsoftware.com/rapidweaver/ ) or Coda ( http://www.panic.com/coda/ ).

Help! Need to cancel free trial but can't find it!

Hi, I downloaded the free trial of PSE 7 a few weeks ago. It worked for one day and then said my trial had ended. I assumed I just did it wrong so I deleted it from my computer and really forgot about it. I ended up receiving PSE as a gift that same week. Anyway, I just got an email saying my trial was fixing to end, but when I tried to cancel it it says I never downloaded anything from Adobe. I am afriad it is going to charge my account anyway, which I cannot afford!! Does anyone know what I could do? Thanks SO much!

They won't charge your account that way. At least not until they jump on the subscription bandwagon that seems to be the current trend. I HOPE NOT!!!
Anyway, if I am correctly understanding you, just ignore that email. I got one that was even stranger since I have never downloaded any CS4 product - trial or not.

i bought and downloaded iWork when i bought my macbook pro and i used to save my documents on words. then a few weeks ago, i downloaded a free trial of microsoft office but unregistered and deleted it a week after. now i can't save my documents on word. It used to ask me if I want to save my documents on word, now it doesn't. And the W icon keeps on appearing on my dock. Can I return my computer to an earlier date? Please help me. Thanks

No, I don't have a back-up of TIme Machine... to tell you the truth, I have this computer for a few years now and I still don't know how to work all of the apps that are here. Anything else I can do?

30 Day Free Trial Will Not Work on Vista

Anyone have any suggestions? I would like to try out
Dreamweaver (I am a GoLive CS2 lover) and have downloaded
Dreamweaver twice and loaded it twice and cannot get the 30 day
free trial to load.
I get an error on start up that says Adobe cannot open the 30
day free trial, please try restarting your computer or loading the
software again. I have tried this numerous times.
Adobe can't you give me a dummy license so I can check this
out or send me a comped CD?
Customer services on the phone sent me here for some queer
reason.

When you start the file you downloaded, have you tried right
clicking on it
and starting it as Administrator?
