Hi Bob,

I followed instructions, but I am still at the same point: I can only run 30 days trial.  Perhaps it something to do with Linux x64 version.   Anyway I downloaded 7.3.0 (again) and when I run downloaded file (sh eagle-lin64-7.3.0.run), it asked me for the original license file (which name  is serial number with key extension). I browse to it and then it asks me to "Type in the Installation Code(ten lower case letters):" What am I supposed to enter?  Again what I have is an origina email from Cadsoft when I purchesed 7.2.0 back in February 2015 asking me to visit http://shop.cadsoftusa.com/license ,enter serial # and enter 16 character code within 4 weeks of origial purchase.... I am confussed.

Cheers,

Tad

PS I am running latest Kubuntu 14.10

PSS When I etered original 16 character code, at Cadsoftusa error displayed is( which is what I expected - after 4 weeks it got removed):

Wait, you know its well past 4 weeks since Februrary, but yet you are

confused why the process won't work!?  What part of "4 weeks" is so

confusing to you?

Hello all,

Here is the conclusion of my saga:

• Yesterday I called the CadSoftUSA support number (+1 954-237-0932). After explaining my circumstance and providing my serial number, I've got the 10 character license code. Eagle 7.3 works as expected. 
• I retrospect I should have called CadSoft before posting my question on this board.  I didn't remember how I activated Eagle 7.2 back in February and forgot that I talked to the support team at CadSoftUSA.
• I suspect that the 10 character license code was simply displayed during registration session after I was asked for 16 digit download code.

If other users have experienced this, it may be useful to add an entry in the CadSoftUsa web under Training & Service -> FAQ:  How to upgrade Eagle from 7.x to 7.y?

My sincere thanks to Richard, Brendon and others who helped me on this forum and to Ed at CadSoft for the support.

To @CadSoft Guest (comment #6 & #11 above): both your comments seem a bit unfriendly. I would hope that all members of this community could follow the good example of folks like Richard and Brandon in the future.
