"Problem with trial"

Greets!
I've just downloaded the demo of the new Director 11, and it
won't let me use it!
"A problem was encountered when trying to load the trial
period for Adobe Director 11", it says. It advises me to restart
and that might fix the problem, but it didn't. Does anyone have any
other suggestions?
Thanks!

Well, you can add another name to the list of people who
can't install the trial. From what I have seen on other PC's and
read online though, this is seeming like the £850 (which is
what it costs in the UK) needs the decimal point moving one place
to the left. Because seriously, if this is supposed to be worth
close to £900, there's something badly wrong.
Even though Flash CS3 doesn't do 3D and physics, as a
package, the quality is 5 years ahead of Director. The IDE is
usable, floating script windows that can happily sit on a second
display. Intellisense code typing and code hints. All that and an
upgraded AS3.
Admittedly, they still rip UK customers off by charging
£570+ for Flash CS3, when it is only $599 in the US, in the
current climate when £1 is worth $2... but compared to
Director 11, it's a bargain.
For 3D multimedia, I suspect MX2004 will still do the job and
if you want to make 3D games, there's XNA for free or TorqueX, for
very little. I can't see any reason to recommend my boss to spend
£850 on this, I really can't, such a disappointment.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 - Problem with Trial

    I recently downloaded and installed Adobe Photoshop CS3 directly from Adobe as it is the latest version my Mac supports. Upon start up, I am greeted with two options: a) I have a serial number for this product. and b) I want to try Adobe Photoshop CS3 free for 30 days. Seeing how I am simply looking to evaluate and have not purchased said product, I selected option b.
    However, upon clicking "Next >" I am greeted by an error. "Problem with Trial" I am left with nothing but wasted time. This is the first time I have ever installed Adobe Photoshop CS3 so I do not understand why it will only allow access with a serial number. Any help to allow me to try this software is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Could the trial have a time bomb in it that prevents use after several years? There's not much of a need for Adobe to allow trials to run for so long after the product's life cycle has concluded.

  • "Problem with Trial - problem loading trial period for Adobe Photoshop CS3"

    Hello,
    I installed Photoshop CS3 Trial and whenever I run it and choose to begin my trial period I get the following error message:
    "Problem with Trial - problem loading trial period for Adobe Photoshop CS3".
    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and even ran the Adobe CS3Clean Script but nothing seems to help.
    I should note I never installed any earlier version of Photoshop on my system (I use a fresh copy of Windows XP with only a few programs installed).
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    David

  • Problem with Trial License

    Hi,
    I installed the 60-Day-Trial of Crystal Reports Enterprise 2008 Server. All Services worked fine for the first few days.
    Now i cannot upload new reports, so I started the diagnosis tool. It seemed that there is a problem with my license key.
    I checked the license key in cmc:
    There is an empty page, there is no license key appearing.
    How can i reactivate my licensce?
    For your information: I have installed an apache 5.5.
    Thanks for answers.

    Any ideas for reactivating the license without cmc?
    I looked for the key in the registry, it looks like:
    [http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/6996/clipboard04m.jpg]
    Is it possible that the key is only valid in combination with the version? maybe i installed an update or patch and this update increased the version, so that my key is not valid any more.
    I tried to start the registration wizard ("C:\Programme\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\regwiz.exe" HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\Enterprise\Keycode)
    Then the message "Valid license key can not be obtained" is displayed. Maybe this is helpful for you to have an idea for solving my problem.
    Which log-file must be viewed to watch the errors appearing in the cmd-license-section? Maybe there is a detailed message, which is not displayed in the cmc-window.

  • Lightroom 2 - problems with trial download?

    I thought I would try Lightroom 2 to see how it compares to Photoshop Elements 8.  I downloaded the trial version okay and it seemed to install okay.  When I tried to run it, the initial panel comes up and a few seconds later is glossed over by a panel saying to the effect that "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit has stopped working" and I get a smaller panel to the effect that Windows is "checking things out".  I then get a button to push that tells me to "Close Program".
    Obviously something is wrong.  I am running Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron 545 (64 bit - I believe) and I am not sure what else is under the hood that might cause problems.  I have Photoshop Elements loaded and it runs with some problems, but I don't understand how that could affect Lightroom.  I also tried to download and run Lightroom 3 Beta and had the same problem.
    Any help or insight that anyone would care to provide will be greatly appreciated, because I have heard that Lightroom is a very good product (not sure how bug-free it is compared to Elements) and I would sure like the opportunity to at least test it out.  Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    WesternGuy

    I removed all the Preference files that you indicated. I uninstalled Lightroom 2.6.  I then went back to the NVIDIA site and checked for an update to my driver for Windows 64-bit configuration.  The site said there was one, so I downloaded it and installed it and all went well, so far.  I then rebooted my machine.
    I then downloaded Lightroom 2.6 again and installed it.  When I tried to run it with all this new stuff installed, same problem.  This is beginning to get a bit more techie than I can deal with.  I do have a disk with the Operating System on it, but I am reluctant to reinstall it (Windows 7) in case something goes wrong.  If it did, then this is just way beyond my technical knowledge and understanding of things to fix if anything that could go wrong, does go wrong.  I have had Dell systems for years and have never, ever had these kind of problems with getting applications, even trial ones, to run.  As far as access privileges, I am the administrator for this machine and I have never been asked for access privileges on any file, folder or other unit, so I will assume (?) that this is not an issue.  If it was, I would have expected it to turn up by now, as I have had this machine for about three months, maybe four.  Ambienttroutmask, I really appreciate all your help and suggestions and thank you very much for them all...
    I do not believe that, or fail to understand why, such a high level of technical knowledge should be required to make things like this, that should be simple - download - install - run - test - decide on purchase (or not), to run.  I do believe I am entitled to one year of in-home Dell service, so maybe I will contact Dell Canada and see what this is all about.  Maybe if I could get someone to come have a look, then this can be resolved.
    I am now at my proverbial wit's end and have no idea where to go from here.  Ideas?  Thoughts? Anyone?

  • Capture problem with trial SW (CS4 Premiere Pro / Canon DM-MV1E,OPTURA in USA)

    Hi,
    I have used this camera earlier with older premiere 6.5 with Canopus DVRaptor-RT firewire. Those files I can not use with CS4 Premiere because Canopus is using their own codec?
    Now I try with CS4 Premiere Pro with motherboard firewire (Asus P5AD2-E Premium).
    Timeline is running in capture window during capture but there is no video and no audio (and no file....). During capture "Capture duration" is 0. When I stop capture there is text "Recorder captures no frames".
    Device control works ok (atleast Rew, Play, Stop, FF).
    Yes I know my camera is old...... Is it so that this camera don't work anymore with this SW?

    I am having a similar issue with trial ver. PPR CS4  but with a Panasonic AG DV2000.
    Where did you find the MV1 setting or was that something to do with your cannon settings?
    I have  the trial ver. loaded on a windows 7 64 box.
    I get message to reset my VTR.
    No video in capture window.
    I currently use the same VTR with Premiere 6 with no issue.
    Any ideas ?

  • InDesign CS3: Problem with Trial

    Hello,
    I have no tried installing the trial on three different machines and have gotten this message each time I have tried to launch the program and begin the trial:
    "A problem was encountered while trying to load the trial period for Adobe InDesign CS3.
    Click quit to see if restarting your computer or reinstalling the software fixes this problem. Otherwise, click Continue to display a screen where you can enter a valid serial number to begin using the product without trial."
    All of the machines I have tried to install on are running Windows XP SP2. Thanks for any help!

    I have the exact same issue.
    The product installed OK, but when I choose "Start 30 day trial" I am simply told "A problem was encountered..."
    The download is from Adobe web page, 15 August 2008.
    File size 459.188.632 bytes, MD5 = 27d34a3d4e5c5f08992b74c9747f4280
    Payload code = 24D77A7C-E10B-4057-9974-FAB8BFDAC853
    Payloads/Setup.xml: 458H Setup version="1.0.135.0"
    The software was installed on a fresh PC 2GHz, 1Gb memory, with win XP.
    It is totally frustrating that not even a trial can start. At least Quark gets that one right.. I truly understand people that search for a key generate online. All I needed was a trial while I wait for my paid copy to appear.
    Btw: InCopy will not even install, here I am simply told: "You can only run one installer at a time".. although InDesign was already completely installed.
    Shame on you, Adobe installer team. Shame on you.

  • Problems with trial un-installation. Please help

    Some time ago i tried adobe photoshop CS4, and used the trial till it expired. About a month afterward I wanted to delete the files from my computer. I was rather unfamiliar with how un-installers worked, and I did not know they existed. I simply went to my finder, typed photoshop, and deleted most of the files. As it turns out, i deleted the re installer, or how ever that works. I recently received photoshop CS4 extended as a gift and I attempted to install it. This was unsuccessful, the first screen that came up with the installer said I still had files from the trial on my computer, and that i should un-install them. I was told by someone who knew more about adobe products that I had to go to utilities to uninstall it . I tried this and it said critical files were missing, and I need to reinstall from the original media. In that last month or so I have found NO solution to this problem, and I am afraid to delete any other files. I could not find any help on the adobe site, and since i have not registered my product( since I have not installed it) i cannot get direct support from adobe. Please help all I want to do is use photoshop and I hate to be wasting the money of the people who bought it for me. Can anyone give me a solution to this mess?

    Try downloading and running the CS4Clean Script:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
    Starting with CS3, you MUST use the Adobe Uninstaller that gets installed in Applications/ Utilities/ Adobe/.
    Some users who just dragged the Photoshop folder to the trash or deleted files nilly-willy have been forced to back up their drive, wipe it clean, and install the OS and all applications from the original media.  You may luck out and get away with just the CS4Clean Script.  Good luck.

  • Strange Problems with Trial Keynote

    Hello,
    I downloaded my trial version of Keynote yesterday. I have created a presentation with sound that I uploaded to YouTube last night. When I played it, I wanted to do a few revisions and went back to my Keynote file (ie: changed the Theme and some of the fonts). Since then, I have been unable to re-upload the presentation to YouTube. Incidentally, I also cannot Export it into Flash or Powerpoint.
    What is going on here? Am I doing something wrong? I am totally confused because it worked fine yesterday!
    Thanks very much,
    Bettina

    No, unfortunately, I haven't. I did find this blog posting that may help somewhat. When you export to a QuickTime movie, is it out of sync then, too? If so, that may be a related problem for which there are workarounds.
    Also, you may find this blog posting informative.

  • "Problem with Trial" during Software Setup of Flash Builder 4

    Just downloaded and installed FB4 Beta 2 on a new MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard 10.6.2). I get this error when running the program. I can continue which sends me back to the Setup screen and prompts for a serial # or "I'd like to use this product on a trial basis. (Available for 60 days)". I would like to use the product on a trial basis for 60 days but it won't let me. How do you get around this?
    Seems like the same problem as this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2180455

    Hi MoTor,
    You would need to uninstall existing Flash Builder 4.5 on your machine and then install Flash Builder 4.6 in trial mode.
    During installation, it doesn't accept the serial number of Master Collection. So, just install it in trial mode and make sure that the you select the same language as that of your Master Collection, during FB installation.
    Now launch FB and it would then accept Master Collection CS 5.5 serial number.
