Worked on first install, now won't

how long did it work?

Till i unloaded the applicatino or rebooted.

<EDIT> Please do not attempt to circumvent trial limitations

Time's up - it won't work

I wasn't trying to circumvent any trial, i had recently downloaded it less than 24 hours before.

I am a software developer, and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't restart. Please fix the issue so others are not plagued by it.

I will be purchasing the software shortly, so the trial thing is a non issue, even though I have 14 days left on the trial. Please remove the thread once your development team has read all of the information needed. I was trying to help,not to harm.

the timer starts when first installed - if you uninstall a day later then reinstall 12 days later - you got a day left

I also experienced this problem. This was same day as initial install, after reboot. I traced the problem to a conflict with Ultramon. As a fellow programmer Adam, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that you also run Ultramon. Try unloading Ultramon, run Multiplicity, then run Ultramon. Works here. I'm sorry you got such crappy treatment from Bichur with regards to your issue. If you don't run Ultramon, look for anything else you are running that would likely hook into the video driver system. My first suspect was PC Anywhere host, but this didn't turn out to be the problem.

you're right, it's much better to offer suggestions months after the trial has run out

Do you have to practice being such an ass or does it come naturally?

oooh.... snappy

rcobourn, enough please.  Thanks for identifying a potential conflict.

Bichur .  . trolls feeding trolls?  That's so wrong.  :

I am experiencing the same issue as everyone else here. I downloaded Multiplicity on Friday night, it worked great, and then on Saturday it stopped working. The process starts (in the task manager) and then stops.

Although I am running various video centric applications (SuperDVR - for surveillance cams, Windows XP Media Center, ULead Video Studio, Roxio, etc), I am not running any development, process monitoring, or hack software.

My trial is definitely NOT expired, at this point, and I am very unlikely to purchase this software if I am not able to be sure that it will cooperate with the other applications already installed -- and so far it doesn't seem that it will.

This is a great application and worked wonderfully until it quit.

Does anyone from Stardock actually monitor this forum and care whether the (potential) customers are having a good experience with their software?

They do monitor when they can (even though it says 'Stardock Support', if you check the support page it tells you this is user helping user if/when we can) - they do have priorities given to them - they also get weekends off.

it wouldn't hurt to:

1) start a new post (while not bad to add to another with similar issues - sometimes the new gets missed due to the age of the original post - may assume a bot resurrected it as has happened before) list OS specs, graphic spec, drivers, etc., bump it when needed

2) also put in a Ticket and reference your post - check spam (should get an auto reply with instructions on how to follow up if you get no real reply {the follow instructions help get your follow up from becoming a new mail which would move you to the back of the line})
