Only beta copies have expiring serial numbers.
Bob
Ah, thanks Bob, I never gave a beta copy a thought.
I appreciate the response.
Out of curiosity … I only used his copy a couple of times, but I didn’t notice any ‘Beta’ captions or anything else that looks different from my full version, did I miss something?
Also, assuming the client actually shells out the money for a full version (you never know) I guess I’m going to have to uninstall the beta and reinstall the full version, since it doesn’t give me an option to upgrade?
Thanks again.
That would be correct. Keep in mind I’m not saying it’s definitely a beta, but the only time I’ve heard of serial numbers expiring is with betas.
Bob
I understand, man. Thanks again for the help.

Or a 30-day trial version, though I don’t know if there is still a download for 7.0 since CS was released.

There is no serial number to expire with the trial version.
"I’m going to have to uninstall the beta and reinstall the full version…"
If it’s your client’s system and your client’s license, is that really a responsibility you should bear?
Well, he claims that he’s been using this for longer than 30 days, so … ?

Yeah, it is the client’s responsibility and in most cases I would agree, but some clients do warrant special treatment.
P.S. I`ve read about illegal Beta copies and stuff…but I can provide anyone with my S/N, even scan of original box…
uninstall and reinstall? call adobe if that doesn’t work.
I have too many plugins/brushes installed, so I`m affraid to loose all that stuff after reinstall…
