My Beta version says it will expire in 4 days time! We are using it to get around the problem of EW not recognising our browser when we are getting song lyrics from Song Select. What should we do! Many thanks!

Groupsecretary, there is a new beta that does not expire until July here https://f002.backblazeb2.com/file/SupportResources/ew_builds/beta/easyworship-7.4.0.3.exe  it is listed under the Announcements under news.

Thank you so much Donal Funkhouser!

My pleasure

Hi Donal Funkhouser we have been using EW2009 for the reason of the PPT button but because of new windows 10-and 11 we were forced  to get EW6 and then EW7 it is very unfortunate that from what i'm hearing we will probably never get a PPT Button. We only use PPT for our church Songs. 

Any ideas anyone.  I NEED to use two YouTube videos in worship in 2 days.  I talked with tech support yesterday and downloaded the beta version.  When I click web and enter www.youtube.com and then try to log in, it will not log me in.  I am ready to pull my hair completely out of my head.   I have a premium subscription.  Is anyone else having this issue??

I can understand all of that except for the 10 steps to pull up a PPT. It only takes me two steps to bring up a PPT, maybe 3 if you include scrolling thru the available PPTs to find the one you want. Not meaning to argue the point, just trying to understand.

Big problem...need help. I was having difficulty with the beta version and so I just uninstalled it.  Now in 7.3 I can see all of my media, but the slide is just black in the presentation or the song.  I restarted my computer to see if that corrected the disconnect between the database and my worship file, but no luck.  This would happen when circumstances prevented me from processing the worship service file until Saturday night.  Any suggestions???  Looks like tomorrow is going to have a lot of black backgrounds...

is this far from going live yet? i notice betas have an expiry - what happens if the beta expires before the upgrade is released? Do i just redownload the beta again? This update is really important especially so browser works again rather than using discontinued IE technology :)

In the Beta or the 7.3 version, I can no longer find the prefilled song list. Is an one other than myself having this issue

Personally I can't understand why anyone would use PPT for song lyrics. EW has a a Song Lyric section for that purpose. That works a LOT easier and is more dependable than using PPT. And since you can install EW on ANY computer to use for creating songs, presentations, schedules, etc. there is no real reason to do otherwise. Sure, it would take a short amount of time to add in the song lyrics initially, but it saves so much time and headaches overall.

Tony Tasmaly, this is why I was asking about what you were wanting the PPT button for. Our Church never used PPT that much, especially after EW6 became usable back in  and didn't use that button. Plus we haven't used EW2009 for years so I didn't remember that button wasn't there. I think we made the switch to EW6 in 2014 or 2015 so it's been 7 or 8 years.
