Hello,   my name is Elias from Germany.  I installed Creo 7 correctly and I’m happy with it. The next days, I would like to do my master’s degree with Creo 7 Generative-Design. Unfortunately, it's not in the student license included. Is there any option to use the latest version of Simulate and Generative-Design for free or as a low budget student license or something like that? Did I do something wrong with installation? Thanks in advance for help!   Regards Elias

Hi,I am mentoring team 3316 in Tel Aviv Israel. I started to teach them the basics of CAD design and found that i am spending a lot of time preparing the presentation for the class.does anyone know a good available source that i can get pdf tutorials or presentations of the main subjects (part modeling - features etc, assembly, drawing)? I have instructed them to use the ptc university pslm but i want to cover some topics in depth in class.Thanks Itzik

Whenever I try to open up a part within Creo Simulate 7.0.1.0 I get an error message saying "Unable to get required Creo Simulate license. Please contact your sales representative." I checked my program data and the license is listed, and within the setup it is listed. I wonder if it is due to the fact that multiple licenses are listed in the setup, but if i minus them all out and try the setup it never fixes my issue. I have attached the screenshots of what it looks like on my end, hoping that will aid in finding a solution to this issue.     

Problem Outline:After installing Creo 2.0, and while attempting to launch it the following error message appears..."Fatal error encountered. A traceback has been written to C:\Users\Public\Documents\traceback.log. Please send it to Technical Support."This problem is because of an issue with an Intel Embedded Graphics card. This can happen when the Intel card is either the primary or a secondary GPU on the machine. The problem is most common on Creo 2.0 datecodes M090-M010.Solution:Fortunately the solution to his problem is relatively simple. By placing a configuration file in the "start-in" location of Creo 2.0 (by default it's public documents) Creo 2.0 will handle the integrated card in a different way, bypassing the error.Download the attached config.pro fileMove the config file to C:\Users\Public\DocumentsRestart Creo 2.0
