You already ran a CS4 demo that included Photoshop…you cannot do it again without completely reformatting the machine.
I have no idea what havoc you’ve caused by resetting the system clock.

Please, PLEASE, tell me that´s not the case!!! Is there ANYTHING else I can do? That severly peeves me off. I don´t plan on using PS every day… and I havn´t/didn´t had/have the opportunity to thourougly test it. One should be fore-warned that this is a potential issue. Why didn´t Adobe just make the File Save and/or the Print commands dissappear after 30 or 45 days. My time is valuable and spending 8+ hours on an OS reinstall is not my way of being productive ESPECIALLY if I decide not to purchase!!! This just sucks Adobe!! Maybe…. just give it away for free. How much more can you improve it anyway? Right now, it´s impossible for me to find out!
Settle down…I was only referring to the affect it would have on Adobe CS4 applications.
Bottom line is if you want Photoshop CS4 to run on that machine you’re going to have to buy it.
Bob
Well at this juncture, I doubt I´ll be purchasing it. Besides, if I dis choose to purchase, is it going to install without having to have the OS reloaded? Perhaps you know someone that has Corel for sale?
Corel what, exactly?
That’s like asking to buy a copy of Adobe. It makes no sense.
If you mean one of the applications that the Corel company sells…you might want to check their website.
Carl,
Nobody here promised you that only the Save As, or the print options would be disabled after the trial ended.
Why did you "not plan to use it every day", and then get all excited when it runs out of trial as clearly stated all over.
Rob
that’s actually a dang good idea. they used to have an unlimited trial with the save, print and copy commands disabled. then with v7 they went to 30 days full function.
imo, best of both worlds would be 30 days full then disable save, print, copy.
that’s the reason i didn’t buy golive several years back. i didn’t have time to eval it before getting sidetracked onto a project, then by the time i got back, it was expired.
or even how about 2 trials. one full function for 30 days. one unlimited, but you can’t save, print or copy out of the app…
