What is the difference between Autodesk® Inventor® and Autodesk® Inventor™.

[Anonymous]

I tried downloading the latest updates from the Autodesk site

But I have found out two different variants of Inventor 

can someone tell me what is the exact difference

when an update is available as Inventor 2016 SP2

Can it be installed to either of the variants

Thanks

Can you show what you're seeing..  You subject line says the same thing..   Inventor is Inventor.. 

Are you talking about Inventor LT, Inventor and Inventor Pro?

Are you talking about the 2016 version

Trick question maybe?

First version both Autodesk and Inventor are registered (R)

Second version Autodesk is registered (R) and Inventor is trade marked (TM)

You can send my cash prize to your favorite charity.

Yes, I am talking about Inventor 2016

Below is the snapshot of available downloads for Inventor 2016

My question is that I  am using Autodesk® Inventor® 2016. So which Service pack should I download?

Thanks for the reply
But I am not asking about the difference between Inventor and Inventor LT

[JDMather]

Do you have Inventor or do you really have Inventor Professional?

I think the Service Pack is the same for both, but the reason you see it listed twice is that you have both standard Inventor and Inventor Professional.

Bottom line - I would download the one for the version of Inventor that you are going to apply - standard or Professional.

One is for Inventor Pro

One is for Inventor (standard).

Which version of Inventor do you have?  Can you do FEA, Cable & Harness, Tube & Pipe, Dynamic Sim?  If you can than you have the Inventor Pro version.

Thank you @JDMather,

I have been using the same link to watch out for the latest updates 

But I am facing issue

when downloading the products under  (for Customers with Subscription) section

I am being redirected to another page (https://manage.autodesk.com/cep/#products-services/updates)

In which I couldn't find the version of inventor that I am using

So in process of knowing what is the big difference between Autodesk® Inventor® and Autodesk® Inventor™.

Can the same updates be applied to either of the products

Thanks

@Ray_Feiler: Can you please be elaborate 

Thanks in advance

[JDMather]

Can you answer this question?

Do you have Inventor or do you have Inventor Professional?

Hi @JDMather

I am using Autodesk® Inventor® Professional 2016

Can you let me help in downloading the corresponding updates

Thanks

[JDMather]

Your latest image indicates that you have Update 2 for Service Pack 0 (Service Pack 1 not installed).

So, simply follow the instructions here

https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/inventor-products/downloads?release=2016

working your way up the list to Update 1 for Service Pack 2.

You would get an error if you attempted to install incorrect Update or Service Pack - so you can't do anything wrong.

Post back with any error messages that you get during the process.

The R in the circle stands for "Registered"

The TM stands for "Trademark"

It has no effect on the product, it is a legal thing of the products, TM is also available in the principle only in the USA
