Avoid Sold Out Software Version
584818
If you buy this (and it is a good game), and your copy was published by Sold Out Software, send it back immediately. Sold Out Software added an extra layer, and part of that layer is designed to destroy your computer if you have software they disagree with, such as Daemon Tools. If you don't mind that, because you think nobody uses Daemon Tools for anything but piracy, still avoid it because it partially deployed and messed me up part-way after I reformatted and installed without Daemon Tools. It is a good game, but you have to avoid Sold Out Software.

It is true that you can download a free version of the software. You only have to pay if you want to upgrade to the full package, but the free version works pretty good. And if you know where to look online you can easily find a license key online for free and unlock the full package and not have to pay anything. This is the route I sometimes take as some software out there is just priced at a stupid high price. Just Bing or Google the name of whatever software and look for blogs. Don't click on anything that says download as you may put a virus on your system. Any good blog sites should have the license key wrote down for you to copy and paste. Hope this helps everybody.

The receipts program is dangerous.  I let Neat upgrade the version and all of the data was wiped clean.  I do hot mean deleted and possibly recoverable, but wiped clean.  No software update should ever run without backing up user data.  This error is unforgivable.  If you use this software, backup regularly or lose your data.  Better still use better designed software.

I used the premium version, but thought folks should be aware:
I ran into a glitch right at the end (after the e-file had even been accepted by my state, PA) and discovered that the tech support department does not have Mac's to test the program on -- although they would really, really like them. Thus they could not duplicate my error and I did email them a photo of the print out with the error which prompted a "hey, you weren't kidding." Ultimately, I don't think it affected the return submitted to the state (but I guess I will have to wait to see if the Dept. of Revenue comes knocking).

Folks,

I bought this unit to convert some of my 300+ vinyl albums to computer files

The turntable works fine.....HOWEVER, AT should have packaged a better software conversion program with the product.

The Audacity product requires at least 2 windows open to sort out how to input the turntable data to your computer. The software is a poster child for NOT INTUITIVE  (!!)

I am currently shopping for better software. No conclusions yet, but it appears that I can buy a better conversion program for about $40.

AT could have, and should have, selected a better conversion program. (If they bumped up the price by $20, both they and the software vendor could have made money.)

Shop your software options prior to buying this product.

Pros: Works great, excellent price.

Cons: It's an outdated model not produced any more in the version that's being sold. By Versions I mean it's kind of like a car, that constantly upgrade the model until the come out with a different model.
The drive was intended for sales in Europe, and did not come with software, I knew it didn't have software just didn't realize it was not manufactured for U.S. sales.
You have to go to the European support site to obtain the software, for me it wasn't that hard, for some they would most likely have to call in the Geek Squad and that might not even help them from what I've seen.

This is not a user friendly software product when upgrading from older version. It also requires purchasing additional licensees when you print checks and exceed more than 150 checks. You need to purchase another block to proceed to print more checks. It also requires a validation process to even start to print checks. The documentation is non-existing and the SN and required codes do not apply and leaves you with contacting them several times and takes up to two weeks to complete.
The software should check for an existing version and use that information and not require you to build your information again. They deposit two amounts into your checking account them withdraw them and need you to track their check number in your checking account again before you can use the software if you enter numbers that should come with the software. Again if it was not from some of the support from the software provider and many tries to make it work I would not have been able to install this software. NO documentation comes with this product with steps to install and what to use to work the installation.
I will think twice before I try and upgrade again

This is a wonderful page layout software, but only if you can actually use it. I am a design consultant on a deadline who has spent over half a day trying to install a working version of QXP8 recently purchased from amazon.com seller, Galactics.

I keep getting an 'Activation file corrupted' message; you're allowed to access the software but in a kind of demo mode where you cannot save your project (found this out the hard way). My numerous attempts to remove and re-install result in the same issue.  Quark's Online Support team (when one can get past the long queue of waiting customers) seems to be unable to take you much past the "uninstall, re-install" advice (for Windows Vista users like me) already provided in their very thin "knowledge base". At USD800 returning the software for a partial refund simply will not cut it for me.

Quark should not release another version of this huge (644MB), complex program until they properly resolve this problem.

Works great, but I would suggest installing the "business" version of the software offering, which has many more options than the "personal" version and comes at no additional cost.

Product works fine. However, it may be wise to show the exact product you are buying,  not the upgraded version. Deceit is not honest business is it.

I contacted seller asking which version it was and was told there was no way to know. I took the chance and ordered anyway and it clearly stated the year, 2011, on the packaging the disc came in. Overall a good program, its just missing features I purchased it for due to not being a later version.

Nice machine. Very nice. However, it came with outdated operating system software and required an update. The update said it would be a  4 GB download. The update actually took 17 GB to download. I am limited to GB downloads per month. This was devastating to my financial college budget. Amazon nor this particular product are Not college student friendly. Too bad it comes new with old software.

I assumed that this software would be the latest version, but immediately upon arrival and installation, I'm greeted with an invitation to 'upgrade' to the latest and greatest for only HALF PRICE.

"Version 4.00.00 is now available
RELEASE NOTES:
New major release, install the FULL download from
blueirissoftware.com
Upgrade for half price with coupon [ code here ]"

So, for what I should have received, I get the opportunity to pay half again over the already extremely expensive software just purchased - this is NOT acceptable.

This product is fine. I'm not a fan of the fact that images I save in its format aren't viewable outside of the program though.

Like another product I've been toying with as time allows, I see it's been  marked "old version." Therefore I'm not sure that this review will be beneficial except to say that my version has barely been used and now a new version is out. I don't buy a lot off photo or video editing software so maybe this is the norm. For me, it make me wary that whatever I buy will be outdated quickly and that the support, if I ever need it, won't be available.

The company is no longer making this software and are not offering ANY product support. Unfortunately, you WILL NOT be able to completely run the software without registering it. :/
