[flexcoders] Re: Flex 3 Beta 2 Expires in 4 days

I tried my old Flex 2 serial number and it didn't take it the first 
time (said it was invalid).  On a whim, I pasted it again and the 
second time it said it was valid and now I have 109 days left 
(instead of 4).  Go figure...

 I was recently forced to upgrade from Flex 2 to Flex 3 because 
of a
  bug in Flex 2 that was fixed in Flex 3 that was affecting a 
couple of
  projects I'm working on.
 
  Flex 3 Beta 2 has been great, however it looks like it's set to 
expire
  in 4 days (not sure if that's just my machine or a fixed date for 
all
  beta 2).
 
  The problem is, I can't buy Flex 3 (yet), and I don't see a new
  beta/version of Flex 3 with a later expiration date. What can I 
do to
  keep developing in Flex 3? I purchased Flex 2 last year and I have
  that serial, but I'm not sure if Flex 3 will accept it.
 
 There's only one way to find out. Far quicker than typing out a 
post asking 
 if it'll work..
 
 Will there be
  another beta update before the current one expires?
 
 Is the Beta expiring, or the trial period?

There's a bug in FB3 where the license dialog doesn't recognize when you
paste a serial number, you actually have to type something into the text
input to get it to validate the serial number.  The bug isn't publicly
viewable in Adobe's bugbase (I assume because it's under Licensing).

HTH,

Sam
