[QUOTE="Ctrl-Opt-Del, post: 1436151, member: 215112"] I too would advise uninstalling the trial version, just to be safe. Were they to end-up installed side-by-side I doubt still having the trial version would stop the full version from working per se, but it's possible the trial version would retain precedence for opening files from the Finder. I recall once installing a copy of Office 2007 "Home & Business" onto a PC that (unbeknownst to me, as I didn't bother checking first!) already had the trial version of Office 2010 "Home & Student" bundled on it by the manufacturer. They co-existed quite peacefully; but I couldn't set Office 2007 as the default, if I double-clicked a Word or Excel document they would always open in the Office 2010 trial; it was only uninstalling the trial that let my own install take-over.
