Re: [Avid-L2] Trial says it has expired prematurely

This happened to me during beta. The bin you're trying to access was
made in a trial version more than 30 days ago. Open that bin in a
licensed version, then close it, and you should be able to open it in
a trial version again. That worked for me. (the beta licensing is
software based, and there were a LOT of beta versions- at one point I
forgot to deauthorize, and using trial license was easier than bugging
avid to reset my software license.)
