Hi

Are you using the same email address in the activation dialog as you used to purchase the software?

What is the full name of the program ? You have posted under Photo and Graphic Designer however quoted Magic Photo Easy?

Do you mean Magix Photostory Easy?

Yes, MAGIX Photostory easy (version 2). I checked on the data in my profile, and I am using the same mail address.

Hi

I would suggest you contact Magix by email to infoservice@magix.net detailing the problem.

Do note that you are likely not going to get a reply until Tuesday at the earliest - Easter Monday is a public holiday in Germany.

Two more questions:

Why, in the effects area I have only 3 effects while in the instructions manual I see 20 (for example in page 20)?

I cannot export the project as MPEG4- but in the instructions manual  (page 26) I see that can use that format?

@David-Kerpel

The answer to your latest post is: because you have been unable, so far, to activate the product certain "features" of the program will only become available to download and use once activation is successful.

@David-Kerpel

I don't have Photostory Easy but, assuming it is at least similar to Photostory Deluxe, have you checked under Help for an entry "Free Download" as well as "Update online"?

With apologies, I have hidden your post to this thread since it is asking a completely different question to the one the tread starter asked.

Please do not hijack another user's thread in this way but rather start a new thread with your question. Thank you.
