WTF? Trial time reset to 60 days

[jabbawok]

I've been using the trial for a few weeks now. The last time I took notice of the splash screen it was definitely counting down how many days I had left.

But just now I started it up and it's showing I have 60 days left. I restarted it several times to make sure and even when shutting down the splash screen still says I have 60 days left. Is there any reason for this? Would it be because PT checks the server for how many days are left, and for some reason the server is down?

Sorry, I just saw the thread about registration server problems, so I guess that is the culprit.

Yes, that's probably it - don't worry about it..

Hey I'm not sure about this now. It's on my desktop pc that the time was showing 60 days left yesterday. But I was using my laptop last night and it was showing I had 32 days or something left which would be correct.

Now today the desktop is showing 59 days. So it's counting down but as if I had started the trial yesterday. Last week I filled out a support ticket about the AEST times being wrong in PT. I tested it in a vmware machine temporarily to make sure it wasn't a Windows 7 problem. Since that basically means I have had the PT3 trial running on 3 machines (sorry if I've broken the rules here but I did mention it in the ticket), has this somehow confused the registration server? Or could all this really be a 'time bug' with Win7?

There were some problems with the registration server which it looks like have caused trial periods to be reset for some people. We aren't going to take the time away, though, so enjoy the extended trial

Actually this morning my desktop is showing 28 days left again like it should.

So I guess I miss out on the extended trial. Damn.

Your AEST timezone issue should be fixed in beta 29 so please update and try it out.
