Tried to download BackyardNikon beta at a friends and every copy had expired license and no reference to updating license.

Why so difficult?

I just downloaded Backyard Nikon Beta 2e and it installed and started just fine.

 

Are you installing the 2e version to a clean directory (not over a previous install)?

All previous BETA have expired.  Use BETA 2e and you will be good until mid-October.

 

Also, if you install in a previous beta version folder, the old key will take over and will be expired.  For this reason you need to install each BETA in a separate folder.  This is by design as I want to force everyone to use the latest BETA as we get closer to a stable release candidate.

 

This is also mentioned on each BETA release/download announcement thread/post.

 

Hope this help,

A google search took me directly to beta 1c, can't seem to find the url for beta 2e

Would you mind replying with the link.

BTW seems I shot the sun with BYE about 1 hour after the M class solar flare 8/24, lots of high clouds, fair to poor seeing, first time out, no time to read docs.Love comprehensive/easy to use software

OK, finally found it digging through forum postings.

Google was not the way to find it, thanks.
