I thought to save me having to take my laptop to Tassie, I could download a trial version of Lightroom and PS5 (I want to try them both, especially Lightroom, anyway) to my BIL's iMac while I am there. But nowwhere on the Adobe site can I find HOW LONG the trial period is.

I know I've seen it on here and I think it is 30 days, can anyone confirm?

It used to be 30 days, not sure if that has changed at all. Rather than DL to brother in laws, why not download at home and take the file on a USB drive with you, much quicker, esp if they dont have a fast/big broadband plan.

The trial period begins on the first day that you launch the software and continues for 30 days (a counter appears each time you launch to help you track the elapsed time). When the trial expires, you must purchase the software to continue using it.

Oh they have a big fast broadband plan Rick, whereas mine is quite limited and shaped if I go over - and I always have a few slow days at the end of each period. I think I'll download it on their plan :D:D

Scotty, thanks for that, I was sure it was 30 days but just could not find it, even in the FAQs.

If you haven't tried it before, you're going to love Lightroom!

I've just downloaded Lightroom and Elements 10 trials and they are both 30 days.
