I am a new user, downlaoded trial version and then purchased.

When I go to start a new project [https://rapidweavercommunity.com/tutorials/series/getting-started](https://rapidweavercommunity.com/tutorials/series/getting-started)

I get an error message Page Not Found 404

Sorry, the page you are looking for could not be found.

Also, if a start a project with one of the pre-designed templates the screen freezes up and I can not make any changes.

Thank you

Ahhhh… I see. You’re looking for a video tutorial? And this came up. It looks like that video has moved. Where did you click on that link?

cc: @dan @ben - looks like there’s a link from somewhere that could use a forwarding URL

Hi Isiah,

Not really looking for a video but instructions on how to get started. I can’t seem to find them anywhere?

There’s a “Tutorials” link at the top of the [http://realmacsoftware.com](http://realmacsoftware.com) website. That seems like a good place to begin. 🙂
