Office 2013: Getting 5 days trial instead of 60 days

I download 700MB Office 2013 from Microsoft's Technet Evaluation Center after learning (from the same website) that the evaluation period is 60 days. But after installing, the Office is saying that evaluation period is 5 days. I don't have product key to
enter as Technet Evaluation Center gave this error:
Your product key is:
Error: 'Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.'
I tried obtaining the key several times but every time the website gave the same error.

Hi,
Have you ever activated Office with this trial product key before?
Or you can contact your customer service center to confirm the rest trial period. I’m unable to give you a definite answer on the forum.

  • I am using the 30-day trial and have 4 days left.  My problem is twofold - 1) I cannot open or see my timeline and don't wish to start over again; it's 15 minutes long

    I am using the 30-day trial and have 4 days left.  My problem is threefold - 1) I cannot open or see my timeline and don't wish to start over again; it's 15 minutes long - video, photos and audio. 2) My timeline has disappeared, so can't edit further  3) Need best way to export to DVD or my MacBook Pro laptop - don't know which settings/items to choose.
    I would appreciate it very much if Apple Support would extend my 30-day trial.  I am working on this project for a Multimedia classroom project at Randolph Community Collge, and am also unemployed so can't afford to buy just yet.  PLEASE help!

    Ok, Tom, I completed the first three steps and everything went fine.  However, I still don't have a timeline, AND above is a screenprint of my timeline and what I presume is meant by the PROJECT.  There is no project.  Now, I can go up to the Event window and Export XML, but it doesn't give me a usable file.  So, first, am I correct re: terminology - the timeline/bottom section is also known as the project folder/manager??
    I've been reading other users strings as well and have tried their tricks as well.  For instance, Eric Martin re: his deleting preference files (6/6), and Norman Jayo's (4/25) lengthy discourse with the "here is the work around" w/ 7 steps.  Again, he mentions closing the PROJECT that is corrupted.  I'm not sure that mine is corrupt as I can play and see my 15-minute audio/view in the view module (upper right).
    So, back to the beginning...

    Hi jazzisjazz,
    According to the error message “please wait while we load sign in”, I find a similar issue. The user solved it by deleting HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office. You can attempt this method to check if it works.

    Hi,
    You are using Outlook 2013, right?
    However, "Folder Id: Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\RPC\ProxyServerName" implies it's the setting for Outlook 2007.
    As for Outlook 2013, it should be 15.0 instead of 12.0.
    Please confirm that and change the settings to try again.

  • I purchased for my pc the monthly download for CC and Lightroom.The fee has been deducted from my bank account.  CC downloaded (but only as a 30 day trial), but Lightroom didn't.

    I purchased the monthly download offer for Photoshop and Lightroom  The first installment has been taken from my bank account, but no Lightroom has been downloaded.  I managed to get a 'free 30 day trial' for the photoshop!.  How do I contact Adobe about this.  Any help

    Thanks for replying. 
    To your question, yes I did follow the process listed in Install and Update apps.  I have a Creative Cloud ID. 
    I had previously trialled the Lightroom and thought that this was preventing Lightroom from downloading, so I uninstalled it, then tried again to download it.  I thought this was working, but at the end of the download, the message said that the trial had expired and I needed to buy.
    I also cannot understand why the CC has downloaded as a free 30 day trial instead of the year I signed up for..Hoping you can help.  Cheers 

  • CC apps opening as 30 day trial

    I recently had a problem with my paid verision of Adobe CC 2014 apps opening up as a 30 day trial instead of paid apps.  I contacted tech support and after much time the problem seemed to be fixed.  Now after less than a week I am having the same problem again.  I have reopened the case, but probably will not hear anything until Monday.  Has anyone else had this problem?
    Georgie

    I believe there are a lot of people that have had this problem, but seldom do people who have their problem solved come back to help so I wouldn't put too much hope in getting their feedback.  You might have to wait for support to get back in the saddle, and you might even need to nudge them to revisit the case.  You can check the following to see if it applies/helps...

  • Project Pro 2013 60 Day Trial....didn't last 60 days

    I download and installed the Project Pro 2013 60 day trial and it disabled most of the features after about 7 days. Does anyone know if this can be fixed so that I can use the entire 60 days?
    Many thanks in advance if you know the answer.

    Soloanom, I anticipate you might be bounced around with a problem like this, but I think that what you're experiencing is due to the design or a problem with the project product itself, and so you'll need to ask the office experts over in the office-related
    forums for assistance.  
    Unfortunately your post is off topic here, in the TechNet Site Feedback forum, because it is not Feedback about the TechNet Website or Subscription.  This is a standard response I’ve written up in advance to help many people (thousands, really.)
    who post their question in this forum in error, but please don’t ignore it.  The links I share below I’ve collected to help you get right where you need to go with your issue.
    Soloanom, the two links in this paragraph are your best bet: For technical issues with Microsoft products that you would run into as an

    For Technical issues with Microsoft products that you might have as an
    IT professional (like technical installation issues, or other IT issues), you should head to the TechNet Discussion forums at
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-us, and search for your product name.
    For issues with products you might have as a Developer (like how to talk to APIs, what version of software do what, or other developer issues), you should head to the MSDN discussion forums at
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-us, and search for your product or issue.
    If you’re asking a question particularly about one of the Microsoft Dynamics products, a great place to start is here:

    If you really think your issue is related to the subscription or the TechNet Website, and I screwed up, I apologize!  Please repost your question to the discussion forum and include much more detail about your problem, that could include screenshots
    of the issue (do not include subscription information or product keys in your screenshots!), and/or links to the problem you’re seeing.

  • Visio Pro 2013 - 60 Day Trial Activation won't work

    Hi,
    I just downloaded the Visio Pro 2013 60 day trial, however when I put in my email address and password correctly it comes up with this error.
    "The account email address here isn't associated with this Office product.  To activate this install, please sign in with the account associated with your product
    Please help within the next 2-3 days otherwise I think it resets.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Have you installed Office 2013 trial version before? If you have, you might receive the error messages. Even if you uninstall the  trial version successfully, its product key and other license details still reside in your Windows which cause
    a license mismatch problem and Visio 2013 shows this error message and doesn't activate itself.
    We could activate it manually. Please try the following methods:
    Method One:
    Go to TechNet Evaluation center
    >Sign in with your live account> Get the Visio Pro 2013 Product Key>
    Open Control Panel and click on Programs and Features icon >Right Click on Microsoft Visio
    >Enter a Product Key > Type your 25-characters product key and click on Continue button.
    Method Two:
    If the above mentioned method doesn't work for you, please try to use Microsoft Visio Support Diagnostic to collect the detailed information and then do further troubleshoot:

  • Getting ÿþ as saved conversations from Lync in Outlook in Office 2013

    Hi,
    I've been trying to get to the bottom of this and have found similar posts, but no one seems to have an answer.
    When I IM someone using Lync 2013, they get a pop up notification but instead of the message they see ÿþ<.  Once they open the chat window, they can see my typed text.  Occasionally, certain people can't see the first line of my chat, but as
    long as they keep the chat window open, they can see everything new I type.
    All my conversations that are saved in outlook show ÿþ< for the text and are unreadable.  I've disabled the saving of conversations because they have become worthless.
    I believe it has to do with BOM but have not been able to find a way to fix this.
    If I copy a conversation from the chat window and paste it into Microsoft Word it shows ÿþ<, but if I paste it into notepad the conversation appears.
    (I had inserted a screenshot here, but am unable to because I am unable to figure out how to get my account "verified")
    I've tried changing the preferred encoding for outgoing messages: to Unicode (UTF-8) in Outlook, but this had no effect and I can't find a similar option in Lync 2013.
    (I had inserted a screenshot here, but am unable to because I am unable to figure out how to get my account "verified")
    I enabled logging for Lync and the event IDs that come up are 1, 11 and 12, to which I cannot find any information for at the moment.
    Any help and or suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Did the issue happen only for you or for multiple users?
    Please try to delete Lync User Profile and information on Registry, then repair Office 2013.
    The path of Lync User Profile: %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync
    The path for information on Registry: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
    Then test the issue again.

  • Cannot install Sharepoint 32bit due to product key issue - may have been used on Trial Office 2013

    Hi,
    I have a 32 bit version of Office 2010 Professional installed. I have attempted to install SharePoint 2013 but it fails saying the product key has been used before possibly in an Office 2013 trial version.
    Any idea how I circumvent this? Is it possible to get an alternative product key - although the install process does not allow a product key to be entered.
    Thanks,
    Alan Johnson

    What are you trying to install? It isn't 'SharePoint' as that doesn't have a 32 bit version. On it's own 'SharePoint' refers to SharePoint Server or Foundation, which are server products that you connect to from your computer but do not install locally.
    It is also not common to install Office on a SharePoint server (but not unheard of either).
    SharePoint Designer, which is very different from 'SharePoint' does come in 32 bit as does 'SharePoint Workspace'.

  • Need Help ASAP with MS Project Professional 2013 - 60-day Trial Download

    I followed all steps to download the 60-day trial of MS Project Professional 2013, and it doesn't work.
    Once I get to the download manager and download what I think is the trial application, the file comes in as: ProjectProfessional_x86_en-us.img. I tried to launch the program once downloading was completed while Download Manager was open, and it
    asks for "choose program you want to use to open this file". The file is specified as disc image file (saved on my file - downloads). An icon didn't successfully download to my deskstop.
    Where can I download the actual 60-day Trial Application? I've tried link below and started steps from that point and wasn't successful as it just accepted file as .img and wouldn't save onto my computer.
    Has anyone encountered the downloaded trial file as an .img file?
    How can I prevent my computer from reading the file as a disc image file in my downloads?
    What is the correct extension file of the trial application?
    Will product key from original attempted trial download work when attempting 2nd download?
    When downloaded successfully, should the file be full data application not just .img file that originally was received on 1st and 2nd attempts at downloading trial?
    Thanks for your help!
    Loren

    Helga --
    Do not despair, my friend, for there is a way to install the trial software without burning a CD.  I use a tool called 7-Zip that can extract the files in an IMG or ISO file easily.  It extracts the files and folders into a folder of your choice. 
    You can download the 7-Zip software for free at:
    http://www.7-zip.org/
    And no, I do not work for this company.  I simply user their tool and like it because it allows me to install software without needing to burn a CD or DVD of the software.  And by the way, I downloaded the same trial IMG file that you did and
    7-zip was able to extract the files.  From that point, I could install the trial version of Project 2013, as needed.  Hope this helps.

  • Can't activate trial versionof Office 2013

    I downloaded the trial version of Office professional plus 2013 in January - I couldn't install it as I didn't have a disc drive on my laptop.  I have now set it up on another laptop but I cant activate it - it is stating that the office product is
    not associated with my Microsoft account. I have 2 days to activate it. How do you activate this trial version? Please give me an simple answer - I am a basic computer user!
    Thanks
    clarecan

    Follow the standard process to install Office 2013 pro plus trail version, you will download the installation and product key for trial version, right?
    What’s going on when you install it in your first machine?
    After you install Office 2013 in second machine, have you typed the correct product key under the proper Microsoft account?
    In any Office product, try to switch Microsoft account in File > Account and type the product key you’ve got.
    If you still failed to activate Office, please re-apply the product key from the link below:

  • Microsoft Office 60 day trial!

    I have a second user HP dv6 notebook. I'm a complete luddite with computers and I inadvertantly pressed the wrong button when something 'popped up' about trialling an updated version of Microsoft Office whilst online - since then i have had no access at all to my original Office and none to the 60day trial!!. I click on the icon (which now has 60 day trial beneath it and nothing happens - all the updates for my Office programme are in the control panel but I don't know what to do to retrieve the original and get rid of this **bleep** 60 day trial that I didn't want.. Any help would be appreciated. thank you
