Title: Unable to download Aug 4 version IMatch 5.1.12
Post by: photomy on August 05, 2014, 07:19:57 PM
 I have a IMatch5 Beta license. It lets me download a trial version but so far 5.1.110 only.  Thought I should try the newest version with bug fixes before I buy upgrade.

Any ideas?

You cannot download a licensed product without a license.
You can download the trial version of IMatch 5, which is the same as the licensed version.

Why? It would be a safe bet that IMatch will always have some bugs that nobody has found. Thus waiting for a bug free version will not work.

Sorry guys,
he was talking about the trial version and when it's downloaded, it tells Product Version 5.1.11 via "Details" (I didn't install it)

Trial versions use odd version numbers (5.1.11) and licensed versions use even version numbers (5.1.12).

Version 5.1.11 would be the same as 5.1.12 except that 5.1.11 has a 30 day limit.

Okay,
thanks for telling. I wasn't aware about this.

So 5.1.11 and 5.1.12 are exactly the same as to bug fixes, etc., except the former is trial version?

I only became aware of an update as when I loaded the trial version it gave me a message to download the new version 5.1.12.  So I spent some time attempting to do what it instructed.  Now I find out it was a waste of energy and time.

Thanks for the info. Future trial versions will consider the update check and not flag an update unless there is really one. Not a real problem, but no need to confuse users running a trial version.

Thanks.  So far I really like what I see in the newest version.  Congratulations on your hard work.
