Running the 30-Day Trial
Before you purchase an Avid Editing Application or any additional options, you can test each
product for a 30-day trial period. Please note that any bins or projects you create during the
30-day trial will only be usable when you activate a full editing license. To purchase the Avid
Editing Application during the or after the 30-day trial, simply go to the
Avid web store.
After your trial expires, you will no longer be able to use the product or feature. The system will
keep you informed of how many days you have left before the trial ends.
To use your Avid editing application for a 30-day trial period:
1. Start your Avid editing application.
The Welcome window opens.
2. Select “I want to run a fully-featured, trial version of the Avid editing application for 30
days.”
3. Click Continue.
Your software has been temporarily activated. At any time during or after the 30-day trial
period, you can choose to purchase a copy of your Avid editing application from the
Avid
web store
. If you choose not to purchase the software, your Avid editing application is
deactivated when the 30-day trial expires.
Uninstalling the Avid Editing Application
For all Avid editing applications, log in and initially start the application as a user with
administrative privileges. If you are working in a shared storage environment, mount your
workspaces. You may then subsequently run the Avid editing application as a regular User.
