This morning, long after the normal deadline for the giveaway to be over, I was able to run the program, enter the registration key, and then got a message saying that the program was now registered.<br /> So, if you have the program installed and still have a copy of the key, you may be able to get your copy fully registered.<br /> I know this won't help those who haven't managed to get the download, but it might help some. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/868#post-5115 Sat, 21 Apr 2007 13:45:34 +0000 ankt227 5115@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>YAY the activation finally worked for me. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/868#post-5113 Sat, 21 Apr 2007 12:28:19 +0000 BuBBy 5113@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Does anyone know where the software is <strong>"available for download for 24 more hours"?</strong></p> <p>Maybe I'm going blind... I went <a>here</a> where there is a message in red:</p> <p><strong>If you have problems with activation, please redownload the whole package from our web-site.</strong></p> <p>Then just below that:</p> <p>This software was available as a giveaway on April 20, 2007, this giveaway <strong>is not available any more</strong>. <strong>You can download the trial version</strong> of this software at<br /> <a href="http://www.avs4you.com/AVS-DVDtoGO.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.avs4you.com/AVS-DVDtoGO.aspx</a></p> <p>Which <strong>only has version 1.5</strong> not the 2.0 beta.</p> <p>Why am I spending so many hours jumping through hoops trying to download and activate beta software?

I have been trying to get this to activate for almost two hours!!!! I have downloaded 3 times from GiveAwayOfDay site and once from AVS website. I get the activation code each time, but when I enter it, "I get Unable to establish connection to the server to complete registration. Please check your internet connection and try again." (Thanks ankt227, I copy &#38; pasted from your post)</p> <p>There is no problem with my internet connection. This was a program I was really anxious to try. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/868#post-5092 Sat, 21 Apr 2007 02:14:22 +0000 BuBBy 5092@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I am still getting the "giveaway expired/over" error.</p> <p>amlt227 / patsews - I think the problem is with the activation server only for this giveaway - I managed to since activate the game giveaway without any problems.</p> <p>If you could check that you can successfully activate the game giveaway (or activate it again - if you have already done so) - that would indicate the problem is not at your end - and that the issue is localised to the "AVS DVD to Go 2" Giveaway.</p> <p>(There is no need to install the game if you don't want to - just getting as far as the "game setup screen" or "AVS DVD to Go 2" setup screen - is enough indication that the activation is working ok). </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/868#post-5091 Sat, 21 Apr 2007 01:51:05 +0000 patsews 5091@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Member patsews I get the same as the previous person.
