Use your reseller! ...ask the SolidCAM ANZ guys to help you out! (support@solidcam.com.au) ...they are all CNC machinists by trade and know what they are talking about! I have yet to give them a problem they can't solve!!

Do you have a legal copy of the software? I'm not in the habit of assisting with the use of illegal copies.
PM me your details (name and business the software is registered with) and I'll speak to the SolidCAM guys.

no

If everything is legal with your SolidCAM you should have absoulutley no problems getting support. Their excellent techs used go-to-meeting and remotely fixed an issue I had.

Can you post your dongle # and copy of a bill of sale and I will call my rep and pass that information along so they might be able to get to the bottom of the "poor" tech support.

I don't believe for one second that SolidCAM ANZ have provided "poor" support! I'm guessing that juniormachinist has an illegal copy of the software, and if thats the case (that he can't provide the details of a legal dongle), do you really blame them for refusing support? ....he's lucky they haven't already started legal action!!
