Re: [Avid-L2] Re: HD Crash/Software Activation Fail!

 

My understanding is the trial won't open bins that were made using a trial version after 30 days, unless those bins have been opened in a licensed version. Unless I misunderstand, it's to preclude someone from abusing the trial by serially re-installing the trial version.

We've bridged license problems a number of times using a trial version, with no ill effects. Still prefer dongles, as well, but whatchagonnado?

John only needs a couple days.
