Hi,
I remember the good old days when Vegas was made by Sony. My first version was 6.0, I was blown away in 2005 in how complete this editor was and the fun I had for all those years upgrading from one version to another until version 13. This was when I hit a WALL…that never could stand this version and was living with the hope that something new would eventually come out…it took a while…it took a very long while, that was when we heard about Magix taking over the franchise.
I was more than anxious when I heard that version 14 was going to come out a year ago. I DL the trial version and my disappointment was more than significant and refused to buy that upgrade. Later on during the year, I heard about version 15 with much more improvements would be coming out at the end of February of 2018. A major promotion with an incentive to acquire both 14 and 15 for $79 US really caught my attention. Good deal I figured. So I DL version 14 with the promise of getting version 15 for free as soon as it would be published. I never installed version 14 and was waiting for the BIG 15 to come out. TODAY I just DL it. Naturally I bought the suite with all the bells and whistles…not as much bells ans whistles as 13 and 14 I figure, unless Derek corrects me!!??
So I install it. When you do, all the apps. provided with the suite, are installed in sequence when installing MSP. So after having issues installing the serial numbers from different apps. I finally was able to reach the main app. which is MSP. When opening it I found out that I had an error…’’error in loading (balbla) project files…Welcome.vf’’. What went wrong? So I reinstall MSP, without knowing if I must reinstall all the other apps. The question is ‘’must I install all the apps provided in the suite when doing a new installation of just MSP?’’
I didn'tt take a chance and reinstalled everything. There were no instructions on that matter in the doc provided. Naturally, I must then go through the same sequence of registering my app again. But I CAN’T, I’m getting ‘’error 24’’. This message is telling me that since I registered my version with the same email address I’m being blocked from registering another time. So I’m stuck until the techs at Magix answer this problem. Also I notice that both my versions of MSP and Architect are registered under Team.V.R.@ukr.net. I always was under the impression that whatever I registered was under my name or under my emal address? That issue was also communicated to the techs at Magix.
Besides version 13, I never had any installation issues with Sony. Everything was nice and smooth Everything was so simple under Sony on that matter…I’m anxious to read Derek’s evaluation soon to be released as I understand it.
Please note that is MY experience with the product. You might do a prefect installation without any glitches...hope you do!
