jim_foley4 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 If I happen to stumble across some one selling a used copy of Capture NX is it legit? I have not seen one, but if I do... Is is possible to register a previously owned copy of Capture NX? What is the registration/activation process? Also, what is the best price you've seen and where(US source)? Thanks very much.

Jerry_ Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Some of the time, KEH in Atlanta has Nikon software at good prices. You might check there, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_in_PA Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Many software licenses are non-transferrable. So even if you can buy one, you may not be able to register it. email Nikon first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliot1 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 If the program has been registered, you likely will not be able to register it or be eligible for updates and discounted upgrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimlarson Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 $129.95 at Adorama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joseph_smith3 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 And you might not get the manual for the program. Buy a copy you can register and one that comes with a manual. I got mine from Amazon. Joe Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronald_moravec1 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Used means preregistered and you may not be able to use it fully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilkka_nissila Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Manual? Oh, a paper manual. That didn't come with my NX license although it's legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liljuddakalilknyttphotogra Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Paying for it through Adorama for $ 129.95 means you get a licensed version & a manual. That alone should be a reason for paying for it. Compared to other programs hardly something to make an issue out of. Also, but paying for it yon insure that Nikon will continue to spend money on developing the software further & giving us better & better tools. This not an item you buy used or hacked.

jim_foley4 Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 Did I in any way imply that I would not be paying for it??? This software is just another Nikon product. Who here never buys used Nikon products? Should we all leave what we don't use on the shelf so we don't discourage Nikon from making anything new? Whether or not the license is transferable is a legitimate point as well as the registration question. So, thanks to those who actually supplied information.

jack_landry Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Before spending money, it's better to download the 30 days Trial version to see if the soft will do the right job. Just go to: http://support.nikontech.com/cgi-bin/nikonusa.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=61 For the manual, you can download it free at: http://support.nikontech.com/cgi-bin/nikonusa.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=14030&p_created=1152275796&p_sid=s1jHXRyi&p_accessibility=0&p_lva=61&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PSZwX2dyaWRzb3J0PSZwX3Jvd19jbnQ9MjcmcF9wcm9kcz00MiwyOTgmcF9jYXRzPTE4NyZwX3B2PTIuMjk4JnBfY3Y9MS4xODcmcF9zZWFyY2hfdHlwZT1hbnN3ZXJzLnNlYXJjaF9ubCZwX3BhZ2U9MQ**&p_li=&p_topview=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_in_PA Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 One more reason why you can't usually buy a piece of software used. You can't buy one new either. In fact, in most of the countries you are reading this in, you've never bought a single piece of software. That's right, you didn't buy Photoshop or DXO or Capture NX or even Mac OS or Windows. You LICENSE it for your use (read the agreement), and most licensing agreements do not include transferability. Just thought I'd add that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry_ Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 "One more reason why you can't usually buy a piece of software used." Adobe will let the software (Photoshop CS2, for one) transfer to a second owner. The first owner must 'remove' the program from the computer it was registered on, then the second owner can install and register the program.

hensil Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Is it possible to install Capture NX on two computers, desktop and laptop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_rubin1 Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Please read the license agreement. You may not transfer the product key. As far as using on two computers-yes you can-provided they are two of your own computers, not sharing with a friend...
