According to an error we are getting, our licenses for Creo 2.0 Expired on Feb 26th, which was a little weird, as I myself have been in Creo for past few days, with no problem. As a result, we are trying to download the new Creo 3.0, but running into an error when trying to download the new software. We are getting a "An Irreversible Error has occurred." That's it. All we can do is then exit the download manager. Has anyone else run into this problem? How do we fix it to download the new version?Thanks

Dear Creo Friends, i'm having some problem with MGf modul in Creo 3 version which i downloaded here:http://img.im/i/phk3n7Everything else is working fine but the MGF modul is not available. I used to work as a CAD/CAM teacher few years back in the high mechanical school and we were using Creo 2 for CAM products. Back then i had support from Slovenian PTC office and there was a MGF modul included.

I just created an exploded view of a car with 4 wheels and when I clicked on the exploded view icon everything shifted to the left. I was hoping the wheels and rims would explode outwards away from the car.How do I change the settings for exploded views?

Hi Everyone!I just wanted to share a document with you all that might help to explain how the editions in PTC Creo 3.0 are set up. I know there has been a lot of confusion on what happened to what was PTC Creo 2.0 Academic Edition and wanted to make sure everyone was aware that a fully featured version is still available to educators.We are working to improve our distribution process and to help educators get the right software when they need it. In addition we will be launching a new support system soon which will help to answer questions more efficiently.My apologies for being absent from the community recently, but I would be happy to answer anyone's questions here or at -.Thanks!

I have downloaded and installed Creo 3.0 and it can't find parametric.exeWhen I click on the shortcut it asks to browse for it

Hallo zusammen.Ich habe mir letztens im PTC Webstore die 1 Jahres-Lizenz für die Academic Edition von Creo 2.0 gekauft. Das Problem ist nur, dass der Installationsassistent sich immer wieder aufhängt und ich diesen dann gezwungenermaßen schließen muss. Das passiert jedes mal nach einer bestimmten Zeit, also an keiner bestimmten Stelle, aber meistens noch bevor ich überhaupt zum installieren komme. Jetzt habe ich mich gefragt wie ich ich jetzt nun Creo installieren soll... Kann mir da jemand helfen? Danke schon mal im voraus.

I am using Creo 2.0 Parametric for building an FTC robot. I have already designed a wheel but when I put in the center axle hole the check mark is grey and won't let me apply the changes. Any suggestions?

We have checked in a part to our windchill server, but when we click the "open" button in creo, the part is still displayed in the workspace. It seems to be that the local workspace in creo and the workspace I can see using windchill are not in sync. I have attached some screen shots to hopefully explain this better.This is where we checked-in our part. It is clearly not in the workspace, according to windchill.Then we click the "open" button in the upper-left corner, and the part still pops up.Our main concern is with big complex assemblies, certain components may not check-in later, which was more or less our problem last year. We made a few mistakes when handling windchill last year and we want to make sure that this is not one of them.Thanks,Trevor A. BabbFTC 8521Hard-Hitting Hardware Hooligans

Hello!I've recently installed the student edition of Creo 2 and every time it starts, it give me an error: "EFX failed to load".I figured out there should be an option in customization of installing, but there's nothing.Is it possible to get a legal AFX which works properly with student edition?

Hi,Is there any way we can use our academic files with the commercial version of Creo 3.0? Any helps would be much appreciated!Thank you!

I understand that PTC has a free Excel based tool that allows the user to create an IPC1752A class D XML. If so, how do I download that tool

I registered for a student trial version of Creo Parametric about a week ago. There were some problems and for some reason my student license expired in about 4 minutes when it was supposed to last for 30 days. I emailed - about this; they just sent me the generic installation guide for Creo. I asked my instructor if I could actually install Creo (trying to get Parametric) at my house, and he said I should be able to since I'm enrolled in his class and I paid for the licence he told me to. Well, I managed to install it, but now I can't open it due to an error that reads;License request failed for featureRequesting CREOPMA_Student2 ...C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing\BK390206EDSTUDENTUNICL_license.dat-21) License file does not support this version.Displaying status for license file: C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing\BK390206EDSTUDENTUNICL_license.datLicense In Use Free Version Expire Date SCN------- ------ ---- ------- ---------- -----CREODMA_Student2 Uncounted 33.0 06-feb-2016 Student2 Locked t
