media editor license not working
matsukaze ninja:
Thanks all, but I'm happy using another program for now. Sorry but I'm not in the mood to do an MC reinstall now. I do understand the importance of field data for debugging, so maybe at some point when I get some free time (yeah, right! :-) I'll try the reinstall and let you all know how it goes.

It has changed: I've *exactly* the same problem ("your 30 day trial period has expired"), using the same configuration (Vista SP1/Admin acount/UAC turned on).
I'm running MC12 version 12.0.462)
(but, since I don't use media editor it not critical for me)

Thanks for posting this.
I know that Glenn is using another app for editing for the time being, but I also know that he would still like to be able to use Media Editor since there are situations where ME's integration into MC would make it a lot more convenient to use. I also think that it's quite possible that this issue IS more common, but that a lot of people simply don't use ME enough to notice it, or to take the time to post about it.
CoolRaoul's post at least confirms that the problem is not unique to Glenn. We never heard back about why MC is able to "see" its license but ME is not. I had thought that they both used the same license since we don't need to specifically "activate" ME, so if we could just isolate what ME does differently when it checks for a license, it seems like this would point to the problem. Again, in both of these cases, MC still works fine -- it's just ME that does not.
Now that another user has reported this, is there anything that could be "checked" for that might at least help point where the problem is occurring -- i.e. the presence of a file somewhere or perhaps a registry entry.
CoolRaoul -- please post back if you find out anything else about this. One side note -- Glenn did try turning UAC off and it didn't solve the issue, so this does not appear to be the problem.
Thanks,
Larry

[MC 12.0.530 / Vista Ultimate SP1 fully patched, running as Admin]
I have tried to use Media Editor today for the first time since purchasing MC. Clicked on Tools | Advanced Tools | Media Editor... and got a Windows Popup for confimation to run Media Editor.exe, which I accepted. Then I got a MC popup saying 'Your 30 day trial has expired' (or something like that).
Is there a solution for this?
