Mike,

It didn't work for me. I still show TRIAL version. ARRGH! Only good news it
extended the expiration date.

I was having the same problem. To fix it, I went to Tools -> Settings and
chose "Access your Money daa on the Web" Once I associated my money file with
the passport I used to download the installer, I closed and reopened Money.

The next time I opened it, it asked me to sign in with the passport account,
and then it downloaded some more updates. One more restart of Money, and I
got a thank you for your purchase.

You can then remove your file from the MSN network if you want.

I hope this works for you too.

Cal,

I am having the same problem, and have tried your suggestion. I am still
getting the trial version. What could be the problem? Leave it to MS...

Are rebates valid for Download software?
I thought it was only for retail (brick & mortar) purchases...

I just upgraded to Microsoft Money 2006 Premium from 2004 Deluxe using the
Microsoft download service. The upgrade was charged to my credit card.
Initially the upgrade went well, however, after Money was executed for a
second time, it suddenly changed to a trial version which will expire
10/13/2005. The popup box offered to upgrade me to the Deluxe version, not
the Premium version I already paid for. What gives?

As a secondary issue, to use the $30 Mail-in Rebate, I need a purchase
confirmation email from Microsoft. I've not received such an email from
Microsoft. How do I get them to send one?

Do something similar to, but not the same as
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;889930

In the resolution, create a NEW empty file (named perhaps Temp.mny)
that you put the referenced Passport onto. Restart the computer.

Confirm that Money shows the right version. Then click on your
real Money file that is shown on the bottom of the File menu.

I just upgraded to Microsoft Money 2006 Premium from 2004 Deluxe using the
Microsoft download service. The upgrade was charged to my credit card.
Initially the upgrade went well, however, after Money was executed for a
second time, it suddenly changed to a trial version which will expire
10/13/2005. The popup box offered to upgrade me to the Deluxe version, not
the Premium version I already paid for. What gives?

As a secondary issue, to use the $30 Mail-in Rebate, I need a purchase
confirmation email from Microsoft. I've not received such an email from
Microsoft. How do I get them to send one?
