You don't need to pre-activate it. Download it, install it, then activate your free trial. As long as you haven't used a free trial on your machine before it will work.

Like Alex has said: 

 go to tools -> licence setup -> begin 30 day grace period.  You do not need a licence to begin this. You can only do this once!  Otherwise you need to purchase a full licence.

I am using trial first time.

The only reason I know of is that you have activated the 30 day licences previously on this computer. You may need to file a my support request on the altera website

[Altera_Forum]

Sorry all! 

I want to buy DSP builder license but I can not find the price in Altera Website. I need to help! Thank all!

[Altera_Forum]

You need to contact your local altera distributer.

[Altera_Forum]

Yes, contact your local disty as I believe all license/IP purchase need to go through them:

I have the same problem here. I have installed the subscription edition 30 Day trial for the first time, but it says Expiration 25-may-2015, so already expired, I have only used the web edition before... Must I first register the NIC on the altera Website ? It's a bit frustrating. Would be great if someone could give me a hint. 

Many thanks

Thanks. I got it!
