How do I install the LabVIEW trial version on Mac OS?

[BernardKingsley]

Hello, if anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated. While I am stuck working from home I have been tasked with getting up to speed with LabVIEW. I am trying to download the trial version to my personal Mac, as we only have a handful of licensed machines within the company. There is a 2019 SP1 Patch download but there is a note saying you need to download 2019 SP1 first. However, if I change the version I am greated with a message saying 'previous versions are only available to customers with an active SSP'. How am I supposed to download and install the trial? I have tried installing the runtime and patch files but as I suspected they don't include the main software and I can't find the install on my Mac. Cheers.

Do a Web search for "LabVIEW 2019 download".  On my machine, one of the first links mentioned Trial versions, which took me to a Download page where I could download 2019 SP1 (the first choice), but there were also other choices for earlier versions (like 2019).

Seems like a bug in the web page when you select the Mac version. It thinks that 2019 SP1 (Mac) is not the newest, but the patch is. NI simply needs to correct the problem. Have you contacted them?

I created a quick entry in the feedback forum. Please make sure I captured the gist of your problem (Since I have SSP, I cannot test)
