Since it's free and I was looking for something simple to use, I downloaded and installed Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0. To my surprise after opening it, a registration window appeared and requested that I register so I could receive an unlock code to keep the program working, so I went ahead and did it. I never received any unlock code. I checked on the Adobe forum and determined that several people were having this same problem and had submitted a report to Adobe without success. Does anyone know how to deal with this problem?

Adobe might be good if you want a program to help you organize and find your photos.

If you only want a good Image viewer and basic image editor ..
Many members of this forum are using this freeware ...

It definitely fits your description .... "Since it's free and I was looking for something simple to use"

Adobe finally sent me a code to unlock it, so the problem is solved.

I've been using IrfanView 3.97 for years. I use it mostly for resizing photos and changing them to .jpg format before saving them or E-mailing them.

Hi the
I downloaded Photoshop album starter 3.0 directly from the adobe website.
They state EXPLICITLY! that this software is free of charge and without any time limitatiuon.
In spite of this , the software has a counter that requires that the user unlock the software within a specified number of uses (30 I think). I have tried registering this software a number of times already and adobe has FAILED to reply either to the registration attempts or when I my emailed their tech support directly.
Once again , this software is offered as free and without limitations.
Does anyone know how to unlock this thing so that I can use it ?

I don't understand that either. It's FREE software, but they still want you to get a code and unlock it.

The code they send you is associated with the E-mail address that you send them, so using someone else's code won't work.
