HP Forums

Dear hp 50g users,
I am the user of the program package O.S. Extension Pack (OSE) for HP 50G / HP 49G+ till year 2012 on my HP49G+.
It is a good program to make my own equations by using units.
But last days my calculator had keyboard problems and I had to buy another model (this time HP 50G).
The owner of the software49g.gmxhome.de Mr. Andreas had written on his web pages this sentence:
This is commercial software and is only licensed for use by a single user, tied to the calculator's internal serial number, but if you have to replace your calculator, a means is provided for transferring the license to the new calculator.
So I asked from him by mail the “means”, for transferring the licence… but he answered me:
Considering the low price and the fact that the software is tied to the calculator an exchange is not possible.
Please do not blame me for a defective HP product. so he rejected my demand.
I couldn’t pay him to get a new licence because there is only PayPal System on his web page and it is not workable in my country anymore. He didn't answer my later mails on this topic.
Is there anybody help me for using the previously purchased OSE software on my new hp 50G?
“MEANS”?
Thanks in advance.

the user uses this free open forum to advertise his closed and paid software without providing assistance. I already complained about this with the moderators :-(

I didn't make and wanted to make any advertisement of any person or program, besides I am suffering for using it..
If possible, I wanted assistance of some advance users of HP 50G to solve this licence problem.
I really don't know what to do... and need help of HP users.
My English may not be enough to explain my real position.
Sorry to you and anybody who understood my problem in wrong way.

I was not complaining about you but about the software vendor that is causing you problems. I'm sorry for your problem, unfortunately I'm not able to help you.

But he already answered. He said "if your device breaks you are out of luck ". There is no assistance to be expected. It may be not nice but it is clear.

The first statement where the vendor says "the license may be transferred" is a bit misleading, yes.

FSVO "misleading" approaching "in complete opposition to"...
