Of course, it gives me until tomorrow to purchase this upgrade.
I don't understand the thinking. Why would I pay a total of $150 for 15 if I could have bought it for half that today? Why not give me the option when I bought 14 to get 15 at that price. Anyways, I've emailed them for an explanation but I thought since this community seems very active and helpful that I would see if anyone's had experience with this.
I'm not sure how to go about getting a refund or if it would even be possible since the product has been installed and registered.
QuoteI purchased PD14 Ultimate yesterday because it was in my price range and though a year old, has everything I need. LITERALLY a day later, I get a notification from CyberLink that due to a "Flash Sale" I can purchase PD15 Ultimate for close to what I paid for 14. As I am obviously a new user, I'm wondering if this is a typical happening and has anyone had the same experience and sought any kind of solution? Thanks!
Was it all possible to order PD14? I can't find any link at the store.
You're asking me, after I said I purchased it yesterday, if it's at all possible to order it? That's helpful.

Quote:...but this seems pretty ridiculous to have to wait 10 hours for a download when I'm on this strong of a connection. Any ideas or help would be welcome.
Hello injineer,
Jn addition to Longedge's advice, I've experienced positive results in drastically reducing download times, by using the Free Download Manager program. I've used it to downloaded every new PowerDirector since version 9 (?).
If I remember correctly, employing The Free Download Manager program to manage my PD14 download resulted in a dowload of less than an hour, to complete downloading all of the PD14 folders, files, and assets over a high speed cable internet connection.
I'm not a techie but was made aware of this download assistance program from a true techie some years ago. So I can't give you any operational instruction or tech details, other than to point out that it apprears to initiate a simultaneous download of several separate streams of a download at the same time. I've never noticed any ill side-effects as a result, nor did I need to disable my Norton Securities.
Just sharing my experience. Perhaps more members will chime in with their diagnosis and further possible solutions.
Just to add to this, Cranston is correct. I have a gigabit connection and was getting speeds of 30k to 85k max. I used the download manager and it downloaded in 35 mins. I was wary of it as usually free stuff has all kinds of stuff that comes with it but it was just the program and nothing more.
