If you register with an e-mail address and don’t get the code instantly, please register with a different e-mail address – this promotion is working, there just seems to be a problem with some e-mail addresses.

I have contacted Wondershare about the issue and hopefully we can get it resolved. I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

@JohnD:
I was using the registration email address, but didn’t work, tried again later and it worked. Don’t know why it didn’t the first few tries, but I finally got it registered.
I had the same problem until I filled the adress simply with dvdripper@wondershare.com which was instantly accepted!
Nothing so far. Tried four times with two different accounts, checking spam folders, etc. I’ll give it another shot during the evening. If it doesn’t come through…well, I didn’t have it before so I won’t lose anything. 8-)
After repeated attempts to obtain reg. info, it finally worked. Was using multiple accounts with no success, but it finally worked with gmail.[tried it earlier x3, but it worked the 4th time]
Thanks Ashraf.
Wouldnt work Gmail or Hotmail, and not in spam,
untill I cleared my browser’s cookies as Ashraf suggested.
@Trev: Yeah I am going to see if we can extend this promotion because of the problems. (Wondershare is based in China so there is a large lead time in response.)
Firefox submission didn’t work with gmail even though it said that I submitted the form ok, but when I rendered the forms page in ie I received the registration code right away…so a firefox issue?
@Pegi: I don’t think so. I used Firefox and Gmail and it worked. I am starting to think the issue is server side vs. user side (i.e. Wondershare’s script is bugged).
@Ashraf: 10:43 pm EST.
Just re-submitted my email addresses on the Wondershare site.
Still nothing at either “Yahoo.ca” or “Gmail.com” emails; neither in the regular inbox, nor in the spam box.
@Bruce Fraser:
EXTRA!!
I used yet one more email address, this one goes directly to our Internet Service Provider. This one worked.
Best wishes to everyone else who is having trouble.
Personally I perfer to use Winx DVD Ripper Platinum which was cost of free on GOTD in March. Take a look at the review for Winx and Wondershare on CNET, you will find the truth.
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19512_7-10438934-233.html
I downloaded & installed program this morning & sent my email address, etc. but have not received registration so far.
@James: I agree WinX DVD Ripper Platinum is really good (read my review at http://dottech.org/commercial-software-reviews/12404) but that article by CNET is fail. Firstly it claims “From a feature standpoint, the two programs are pretty similar.” Yes, they are similar in terms of being able to rip DVDs to many output formats and support for multiple electronic devices, but Wondershare DVD Ripper Platinum has editing features that WinX DVD Ripper Platinum does not have – this is key to note. Secondly, the writer does not mention computer resource usage; from the sound of his article I am thinking Wondershare DVD Ripper Platinum could have been using less cores of the author’s CPU (hence why it took almost twice the time to rip a DVD) vs. WinX DVD Ripper Platinum, but we won’t know for sure because the writer never mentioned it. The only real valid point the author brings up is the fact that WinX DVD Ripper Platinum is $10 cheaper.
Now I am not saying Wondershare DVD Ripper Platinum > WinX DVD Ripper Platinum or WinX DVD Ripper Platinum > Wondershare DVD Ripper Platinum. I am just saying that article is not a good article to base your judgment off of. I would myself compare the two but I can’t find my Jurassic Park DVD…
@willyneu: I would try again with a different e-mail address.
I just submitted info & registration came through right away.
I just talked to Claire, and Wondershare cannot extend this promotion. However, anyone that had problems getting the registration information can e-mail Claire at claire.lee [at] wondershare.com and request the registration information (mention that you tried to get it via dotTech’s recent promotion but you didn’t get the registration information).
OK… finally got this to work. Yes, cleared my ie browser cookies, etc then used my gmail address… worked. Had tried many times with 4 different accts on both ie and ffox… clearing the browser seems to be the trick. Received reply almost instantly. Thanks Ashraf and, of course, Wondershare.
Thanks for speaking with Wondershare about the registration issue, Ashraf.
Very odd indeed. For me, a yahoo email address didn’t work at first (altho I received an email later in the day, many hours later), but a gmail address worked; for other people, the opposite. Something very weird indeed must be happening with the Wondershare computers …
I tried 8 times, with 4 different email addresses. The last times I held the Control button while submitting my addy; it went through. Just keep hitting this button.
I registered about a 90 minutes ago (on a hotmail and a gmail account) and nothing came through (tried with both FireFox portable and IE 8).
I tried again about 45 minutes ago with the *same* email accounts and the registration details came through straight away (although hotmail did put the email in the junk folder :-p).
I suggest that if anyone has tried to register and got no email, keep trying.
@Ashraf: I used my Gmail account and received nothing.
The reg info finally came through on Gmail after five attempts. Haven’t checked the fifth try on my ISP account. Installed and registered without a hitch; this will be interesting to try out when the need arises.
Many thanks for your unflagging efforts, Ashraf.
On my gmail address it arrived after the second try.
Thanks for the offer.
have tried 3 emails (2 gmails+another), with 3 browsers (FF, IE, ,Opera) and finally got them :-)
Thanks for the offer.
