Important Information about Beta Releases

Please note that this is a beta release, not an official production release.  For important information about beta releases, including what it means, who should participate, and how to participate, please see this post.

 

How To Check If Your License Covers This Version

Please note that your license may or may not cover this version. To check, please go to the license retrieval page, and enter your email address (the one you purchased your license with). An email should then be sent to you with information about your license. The "Summary" section of the email will tell you whether or not your license covers the latest version.

 

If your license does not cover the latest version, you can either continue using the version that you currently use, or consider purchasing a license renewal in order to start using this new version.  Or, if you would also like to upgrade the features available to you, you can purchase a license upgrade, or purchase a SuperStar license, or upgrade your SuperStar license.  Any of these also counts as a license renewal, so if you do one of them, there is no reason to also purchase a license renewal.
