New user having trouble

Hello,
I installed Kook Moves 3 but the tools at the top look different then the manual diagrams. How do I make copies of frames? Please forgive my ignorance.

KM 3 is very old and almost nothing like the current version. KM 5.1.7 is the current, you should upgrade asap.

[blanius]

I missed that he said version 3 LOL my little example probably won't help much then eh?

[gusmus]

With divine intervention,,, anything is possible,,, except making KM3 into KM 5.1.7 lol.
I'm amazed at how much it has changed in such a short time and also how much more complicated it is for us poor dumbos who only wanted to make silly banners about 3 years ago.

[Bob Hartzell]

That is what the basic interface is for -- people who just want to make simple banners.

[EYElene2]

I can't at this time afford to spend anymore money. Plus, I never used this program & feel like I'd be wasting the money I spent for the one that I have now. Isn't there any place I can go to to learn version three? I tried using the help menu in the program itself, but as I mentioned, the diagrams don't match the interface of the actual program.

[EYElene2]

It's me again. I went to the site & see that to purchase a full version it is $45. But it doesn't say anything about how much an upgrade would be. Also, if I get the trial version would I be allowed to save the slideshow & burn it to a DVD?

I may be wrong in thinking this but if you have already purchased the program shouldn't you be abe to upgrade for free to Koolmoves 5???? :)

No, there's little commercial software with a free upgrade for life policy. If you bought MacroMedia Flash mx years ago, you also can't expect to get 8 for free.
The upgrade policy for KM can be found here

Unfortunately you are right it doesn't show upgrade prices. If I remember correctly there was a special upgrade price but I don't know if that goes for all older KM versions and how much it was. Bob may be able to tell you.

Ah, that's where i'm getting confused. I only recently bought mine so would be why I had a free upgrade because i'll be fine until Jan 2007. Think it would be a good idea to put some sort of prices there even if it states that they are liable to change.

[Bob Hartzell]

There are different prices for different situations. The upgrade price from an internet purchase is $16.95. Some people got a free version on a magazine cover mount CD and that upgrade price may or may not be less. There are some other special situations as well.

[gusmus]

Even at 45$ it is worth upgrading. You'll be Macromoulding at less that 10% of the price. A Donf.

I agree definatley worth parting with my money

[gusmus]

Why don't you download the new trial version to a different folder to your 3.00 version (so you don't over write it) and try it for a week or so. If you know the old version you're going to absolutely flip over what the latest version can do.

[EYElene2]

Yes, I would like to try the trial version first. Does anyone know if I will be able to burn a DVD from the trial version?

KM has nothing to do with burning DVDs.

You cannot save from the trial version it that is what you are asking.

I visited your site and consider it my first birthday present of the day ;)

Nice portfolio :thumbsup:

[EYElene2]

Thanx, Chris! Your message is MY Xmas inspiration. It made me feel so good.

[docree]

If one just downloaded from http://www.koolmoves.com ...
Then I don't know how they could buy KM 3 recently.
Since KM3 is a year or two old...
Where did you get KM 3?

[EYElene2]

I got this program a few years ago but never had a chance to use it. Now I decided I want to make a slide show presentation of my work so that's why I installed it recently. It looks pretty good. I am probably going to upgrade for the $16.95 price that Bob Hartzell mentioned above. But can't seem to find where to go to do that.

[Bob Hartzell]

Email me - support @ koolmoves . com. Emails were periodically sent out for upgrading but if your email changed since purchase you would have course not gotten the emails. Include your registration code (Help > About KoolMoves).
