Trial Autocad for Mac 2013 serial number issues

[pattyleo182]

Hi there,

I have downloaded the Autocad 2013 for mac 1 month trial and it is still asking me for a serial number. I keep putting the 0000000000 numbers but it still tells me I need a serial numbre even though I chose the trial version when downloaded.

Help please

Hi pattyleo182,

The trial version is the exact same software as the commercial version (just a different naming convention). The difference becomes apparent during the installation when you either enter a serial number / specify a network install or opt to run in a trial mode. Did you select a standalone deployment when installing and enter the 000-0000000 serial number or select the trial option? You may need to uninstall and reinstall to get around this.

I keep trying to download, install and uninstall the trial version but then everytime I re-launch it, it keeps asking me for a serial number even If I have previously clicked on the trial-version button. 

I also try typing the 000000000 000 000 serial number and product key and it keeps saying wrong numbers.

Thank you!

pattyleo182,

What happens if you put in the correct AutoCAD for Mac 2013 Product Key 777E1? Can you attach a screen shot of what happens when you first start up the program.

Nothing, It still wont allow it. I downloaded the trial version btw, I made sure I picked the bit where it says TRIAL VERSION, it makes the tab grey with the 00000's but still shows me this.

Thanks pattyleo182,

As I'm still unsure what's causing this, I've generated a timed 30 day license for you to emulate the trial mode, and will send you a Private Message with the relevant information once available.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

Welcome to the community and hopefully my (or someone else) reply will be beneficially to you.

As a reminder, this is a world wide (public) user forum where users are assisting others. In addition do not post, attach screen shots, or share any personal information (such as your serial #) here.

What is the reason for wanted to try out an application that is like 4 years old?   2013 just fell off the radar or its about too and no longer be supported.

Can't you use at least the 2016 or 2017 version?

My Mac does not support the newest versions, that's why I wanted the 2013
version...

Understood..  The product is going to be retired here shortly and you will not be able to purchase it so its unlikely Autodesk will allow you to try it out.  But I'm a user and have no control over what Autodesk will or will not allow.  But it may be time for you to upgrade the OS or get a different machine.

As side note, although Autodesk does monitor these forums, it doesn't mean they will see and/or respond to your request in a timely fashion.
