PTC Education

This past weekend we updated all our laptops to CRE 3.0, all went well til we got to the last two laptops. We installed CReo 3.0 same as before on a laptop that was running Creo 2.0M120 , when we clicked the Creo 3.0 icon the time dial ran for a few seconds then nothing happened , tried again same thing , no error codes etc... , we thought 2.0 may have been interferring , we deleted all the PTC files and started over from scratch , Firewall and Antivirus were off. Same issue we click the Creo 3.0 ICon and get a time dial for about 5 seconds then it stays on the desktop screen , no errors, no codes as to what happened , it just won't run, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated , all other parts of install appear to go fine , IE getting a license, loading files, etc. no errors popped up. We did try reloading a third time with same results.

Does PTC still support ProEngineer Wildfire 4.0 License upgrades?

Hello Everyone, My team and I are just wondering where on the baseline CAD models we can use to store payload, our file (pusher fixed wing) shows a solid fuselage. Also where do we assume the original CG is located on the pusher fixed wing design in the baseline CAD models. Do we use Creo Simulation to find it or is their a known coordinate for this. Lastly is there a given maximum speed for the pusher design, in the detailed document it provides the cruise speed but not the max speed.Thank You,Michael Fasciano

Seeing a picture of 30 St Mary Axe, widely known as The Gerkin building in London, i wondered how the frame could be modelled in PTC Creo.A few minutes of observation followed by some fiddling came up with right and left handed helical sweeps patterned around a common axis. A revolved ring connects the ends at the bottom. See if you can come up with another method of modelling the frame.The PTC Creo model is attached. Does anyone with a 3D printer fancy printing one and posting a picture?

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. Here are some of my products and products from my students:http://img.im/i/hjjc97Example of step by step milling: http://bit.ly/1uPX8G2Machines: EMCO Mill 250 and Turn 250Like i wrote i downloaded a Creo 3 version just to refresh my knowledge on manufactoring, becous i forgot a cuting parameters and some other steps but i can not open my old programs which were made on school version of Creo 2.

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?

I basically can't do the model im working on unitl I can rotate my part. please help!!!Don

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
