Downloading the Visio 2013 trial

I have been trying to download the Visio 2013 trial.  On Mozilla browser it gets to 43% and then the page automatically closes.  It has done this about 5 times thus far. One would think Microsoft would make it easy to try such an expensive software
so that people will buy it.  But rather, they make it impossible to download.

    Troubleshooting
    Can’t open the download link or get 404 error
    We'd better check the IE's settings, try the following steps:
    1. Install the latest updates.
    2. Clear your browser's cache.
    3. This issue is related to permission, you may run IE as administrator for a test.
    4. Ensure that the Internet Explorer security settings are not set to high. Also disable
    enhanced protected mode.
    5. May be one of your add-ons that causing this. Manage add-ons in Internet Explorer: 
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/manage-add-ons#ie=ie-10-win-7
    6. You could add these addresses to the browser's list of Trusted sites. To do this, click
    the green tick and then the button marked Sites, and paste an address into the box that says "Add this website to the zone.
    7. Also temporary disable or uninstall the security software such as anti-virus software
    to see whether the issue occurs.
    No response after clicking the download command with IE
    Make sure we have chosen the language version.
    Make sure you've not set block the pop-up windows in IE, because we need to install the "Akamai NetSession Interface" add-on.
    Can’t find the download file
    The TechNet trial of Visio 2013 is no longer to be downloaded in .img format, it has changed to .exe format. We can install it directly. Please find the exe file with the

  • Downloaded the Visio Trial x64 version, unable to find the file,

    The Akami downloader downloaded an .img file.. but it is nowhere on my system. I have tried to download this file multiple times in different browsers (without my firewall engage.. I know how you guys like to  blame that) and still nothing.
    Why can't you just give out an .exe file like everywhere else and not use this Akami downloader to drop a .img file on my system? 

    Thank for your feedback. Yes, we need to
    download Visio 2013 trial through Akami downloader management. Microsoft provides only IMG Installation Source in public website so far. After finishing download, we may findit from the path lists under "Save As".
     Could you get it now?

  • 1.5.6 library won't open now that I download the 2.0 trial

    I downloaded the 2.0 trial when it came out and put a few files in it to play around with. I left the 1.5.6 application on the computer since the 2.0 trial wouldn't allow me to use the 1.5.6 library. I would drag the 1.5.6 library onto the 1.5.6 application in the dock, however, though I used the 1.5.6 library with 1.5.6 earlier today I can not now load it in 1.5.6. A little popup comes up and tells me that i can't use it because it is a newer library, yet if I try to load it in 2.0 it won't let me update the library.
    I NEED the 1.5.6 library as it houses all my photos. My vault is on another drive, one ironically that I can not get to at the moment (location redundancy).
    What can I do?

    I retained Aperture 1.5.6 when I activated Aperture 2.0, too. I renamed the older version by adding the version number.
    When I double-click on the icon for either version of Aperture it attempts to open the last library that was used by either version. I get around the problem by right-clicking (or Ctrl-clicking) on the library icon instead, then choosing which version of Aperture to use from the dropdown menu.

  • I downloaded the 30 day trial 22 hours ago, but now InDesign says my trial has expired?

    I downloaded the 30 day trial for InDesign, Acrobat and Encoder on my new MacBook less than 24 hours ago, but when I tried to open InDesign just now, it said that my trial has expired. It worked perfectly this morning. Is there something I need to do to carry on with my 30 day trial before having to purchase?

    Hi olgajardine,
    I certainly understand your situation, however, unfortunately, we have no way of resetting a trial time.
    Sometimes anti-virus or security software can interfere with the trial time. In order to get out of this situation I would like to make some possible suggestions.
    You can try to install it on a different computer if you have a spare machine.
    You can sign up for Creative Cloud and it is possible to cancel without penalty or charges within the first 30 days. You can get the full refund for the same as per subscriptions terms. for more info.check the below mentioned link.
