Aurora includes image editing, photo organization, and photo sharing tools. A simple image backup capability is rolled in as well.

Aurora for Mac requires an Intel Mac with at least 1 GB of RAM.

To get Aurora for Mac for free, go to the Aurora web site before 9:15 am ET on July 16 and click the “Buy Now For $19.95” button for the Mac version. In the order page that appears, enter FREE24 in the ‘Discount Coupon’ field. Click the refresh icon to the right of the Discount Coupon field to update your purchase total to reflect the $19.95 discount, for a new total cost of $0.00.

Once the discount is correctly applied, provide the rest of the information requested and follow the online instructions. You will then receive two emails, one confirming the purchase and one with a download link and the registration code.

Enjoy!

Tried the FREE24 thing and was INVALID. Tried a couple of times. NO GO.

Applied twice for the free Aurora for Mac (an hour apart). Received each time the Online Payment Status (referring to the “free” program). However I did not receive anything further ??? What happened?

I entered the FREE24 code yesterday morning and had no problem downloading the software.

Did you try contacting Aurora? Maybe there were some web site problems.

I agree with Sarah. The best thing you can do is contact Light Crafts, the makers of Aurora, and let them know about the difficulties you encountered.
