No K3CCDTools key???

My trial version of K3CCDTools has expired and there's no new key on their website????

Up until now there's always been a new key available, but not this time round.

Is it just a timing issue, as we wait for the U-S calender to tick over to the 16th of August????

Not sure what is going on Matt. I downloaded the Key on the weekend and it was only valid for a couple more days. Maybe Version 1 is going off line now.

Oh no, maybe we finally have to buy it!

With the DMK I use ICCapture so it's not a big deal, but if I want to use the ToUcam again I'd prefer k3ccd.

Bill must have designed a bug up the line disabling all free capture software so we have to buy one from him.

Still no key available yet.

Paul,

I have never heard of a K3 forum or Peter K. I have only had K3ccdtools for a week. It's all new to me. I am trying to learn how to use it and Kapoww! Expiry date arrives!

Ken there is a forum at yahoo just for K3CCDTool users and Peter Katreniak is the software producer. He replies to many of the posts at the yahoo group. I've been checking the Yahoo forum and I've not found anything about it yet so I'll post a query there today.

I had Version 2, after using the freebie vesion for a while. It was money well spent. I now have Vesion 3, and it is better. Buy it Matt, you won't regret it, and Peter is tops to deal with.

I like it so much I use all three versions

Seriously though, Version 1 is great, but V3 give so many other options. K3 and Registax go together like cheese and jatz.
