Livin in a box Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Are all the keys unique, or are they like Win7, they just go in rotation?

way2quik Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Ugh. Outlook 2010 crashed on me three times all because I added an email account. :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/796580-official-office-2010-tech-preview-invitation/page/8/#findComment-591388180 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petvas Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I am also a tester of Office 2010 and so far I am not particularly happy with Outlook's stability. It crashes all the time, makes ost files corrupt and generally it cannot be used productively. Of course a beta should be used only for testing, but at this stage even that is extremely difficult with Outlook 2010. The other programs work ok though, since they didn't receive many changes, especially comparing with Outlook. I look forward to Office 2010 when it becomes more stable, maybe with the next beta release, due this year.

tranceandy Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 When starting Outlook, it occasionally crashes. Starting it again solves that though. To be expected at this stage :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/796580-official-office-2010-tech-preview-invitation/page/8/#findComment-591389330 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWillens Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 I got my invite yesterday too. Question: do I need to uninstall the earlier build that I had installed from ummm, well, from somewhere else? I had been using that build since it first came out a few months ago. Or can I just install this build over the top of the earlier build?

cwpenner Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 I wouldn't install preview builds over preview builds. I'd wipe it and start clean.

Livin in a box Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I posted this on Connect too, but I'll also post it here, just in case: "Well, in any of my Office apps, when I go to the Office menu in, say, Word, go to Options and look to the right, at the top it says I have a license for this product. Right. But then underneath it says that I am using a trial version, which will become unlicensed in 29 days. Next to that is a 'Licensing Operations' tab, and if I click that and go to 'Activate Product', it looks as though it will, then it tells me my product key is not valid. I used my key from my Connect user in installation, which was valid and everything. So what does all this mean? Its confused me."
