I've been using the trial version of PD 14 Ultra. I had already ordered PD 13 on Amazon. When I got the 13 CD from Amazon I uninstalled the PD 14 trial version and installed the PD 13 purchased version.

I'm not sure but I think there's features in PD 14 that I like better than in 13. For instance resizing photos and controlling motion effects seem better in 14 but I'm not sure. In 14 I was able to take the motion arrow and pull it back to back a loop so the photo moves back and forth. I can't seem to do that in 13 -- but I'd like to try 14 trial again now that I've used 13 for a few days.

Can I keep 13 installed and then download the 14 trial version again? I'm not sure they can both be installed at the same time without problems.

Thanks. Doug

Yes, if you install PD 14 Trial after PD 13 is installed. The Trial version is not supposed to remove anything.

I Have a full version of PD 13 Suite and have installed the PD14 trial with no problem. I now have Director Suite 4 Live, (PD 14 full version). Carl312: Windows 10 64-bit 8 GB RAM,AMD Phenom II X4 965 3.4 GHz,ATI Radeon HD 5770 1GB,240GB SSD,two 1TB HDs.
