I'm reposting here what I posted on CF-Talk, I think it may answer some of the questions about subscriptions:
(Note: additional info: our servers are indeed overloaded with folks downloading all the new stuff. We've made arrangements with another site to handle some of our sales overflow, but it doesn't hook into the set up we have for fulfilling subscriptions, so it'll be hit & miss on that till the rush lightens a bit, sorry! BTW, our servers are running Broadvision, not CF. BV was implemented at MM along time ago, and yes, we are transitioning to CF. But meanwhile, we gotta go use the existing system. Original post to CF-Talk: Here's the deal on subscriptions: CF server subscription: CFMX is available for immediate download. If you are registered with a current/valid subscritpion serial number, you should have received an e-mail with instructions outlining how to d/l CFMX. The e-mail contains a link and some instructions. When you go to d/l CFMX as part of your subscription, you'll have an option for requesting a backup CD and documentation at no charge. If you have a current/valid subscription and did not receive this e-mail, first, be sure you're registered at: http://dynamic.macromedia.com/bin/MM/software/reg/register.jsp Once registered, that will trigger the e-mail to you (not sure how long it would take, but I would guess within a day or two). If you find that you're already registered with your CF Server Subscription number, and have not gotten this e-mail, please contact Customer Service, and they'll get you squared away. Keep in mind, we're swamped due to overwhelming response, but subscription issues do get a higher priority from Customer Service. To contact Customer Service about subscriptions, use this link: http://www.macromedia.com/support/email/cscontact?6171=13 CFStudio Subscription: Same process as above, but there are a few kinks we're currently working out. I anticipate this should all be resolved in the next day or so. 1.) The letter that went out erroneously instructed to use the CF Server serial number at the supplied link, but you should use CFStudio serial number. 2.) Currently, there's a couple glitches in the online subscription fulfilment mechanism. Most importantly, the system is presenting the wrong bits for d/l (CFServer instead of DWMX & Homesite+) Also, sometimes the Studio serial number you're asked to enter isn't correctly recognized. Once these issues are resolved and you can successfully fulfill your subscription online, you'll also be given the option to receive a backup CD and documentation at no charge. These issues should be resolved shortly, so try again in a day or two. If you're still having trouble getting DWMX & HS+ as part of your CFStudio subscription, contact Customer Service and they'll quickly help: http://www.macromedia.com/support/email/cscontact?6171=13 I hope this helps!
