I am trying to show my firm the recent improvements in Articulate Studio by using Quizmaker 2013 as my example. Our firm uses 2009, but I was able to download a free trial of 2013 and easily made a quiz with zero experience. Unfortunately, I cannot show fellow team members what I was able to do because they are using 2009 and we are spread across the globe. Is there a way for 2009 to play a 2013 quiz or perhaps an emulator online that we could access and thus upgrade?
On a similar note... I have a dumb question. Will downloading the trial of v'13 overwrite any part on my installed version '09? Asking b/c when I was downloading the trial v'13, I noticed a pop-up question that said downloading this trial version would overwrite any older versions. I assumed it was referring to older versions of the trial, but just need to confirm. Since v'13 is not reciprocol with v'09... I cannot afford any overwriting until I've been able to check out the trial v'13 first.
Yes, Lisa. The installation of Studio '13 will remove Studio '09. We advise that if you need both, to not utilize them on the same machine. It will not affect your files until you choose to upgrade them, and even then, a backup will be created.
I know the installation of v'13 will overwrite v'09, but just to confirm, are you saying that downloading a trial version of v'13 will also overwrite the installed version of '09?

Hi Dan!
I would recommend publishing the content so that they can have a look as there is no way to make a project created in '13 downgrade to '09.

Our trials are full versions of the software, so yes.
Thank you! I'm glad I asked. :)
Of course.
