I originally purchased it for my new Desktop which has another terrible program Vista on it: as my Roxio 7 was not compatible: due to computer guy asking if I wanted it on desktop to upgrade my Roxio 7, although wanted it on my laptop: I now still have my new laptop with no Roxio on it. Purchased Roxio 9, had to get a specialist to download it then discovered that it was only good for on e application, and I had it (as it was being repaired my laptop) put on laptop despite having a good Roxio 7 on it, now I have a Roxio 9 and Roxio 7 I cannot use, so I have wasted my money, time for something I am unable to use. Tried contacting the ROXIO customer support and that was a HUGE waste of time. After I removed the ROXIO Creator 2012 my computer started working normally again. After several retrys at loading I started getting a " Microsoft Visual " C" Runtime Library Error" with an accompanying black screen. IT will not operate on my VISTA Ultimate 64 Bit system. But, this time I must say ROXIO has let me down.Ĭons: First I downloaded this product straight from the ROXIO/DigitalRiver website. Pros: I have always had good results with ROXIO products.

I have used ROXIO severla tomes in the past but can not recommend 2012. When contacting the ROXIO customer service people via e-mail they just consistently tell me to download again. The progra m will not work with the VISTA 64 bit machine I have and it caused some conflicts until I removed it. IT took over 2 1/2 hours each time I downloaded. The program was downloaded from the ROXIO site. Roxio Creator is still a powerhouse, but for many users it will feel like overkill. It is very easy to use, and the centralization of features might appeal to users who are not comfortable with digital media tools, but there's an important thing to remember: very few users are likely to need ALL of the functions that Roxio Creator offers, especially if they are not technologically-savvy. The program takes ages to install, is very slow and sucks up colossal amounts of memory. Unfortunately, all these amazing features come at a price, and in the case of Roxio Creator, it is quite a high one. Among the most interesting features in this new version is the video stabilizer, the possibility to download photos and videos from Facebook and the awesome tool to convert images and videos to 3D! Burning CDs, creating DVDs, making labels, designing slideshows, writing e-books, editing photos, creating digital copies of your old vinyl records and cassette tapes, and backing up data is only the tip of the Roxio Creator iceberg.
