Roxio Creator 2012 Pro (Windows)
Creator 2012 Pro from Roxio is your Swiss Army knife for various media tasks, such as video editing, photo enhancement, music mix creation, file conversion, data backup, and DVD burning. This Pro version of the software includes advanced features that were previously available only from professional-level applications – you get HDR (high-dynamic-range) photo creation, SmartSound soundtrack creation, and much more.
Files tend to multiply like bunnies. We've all got cameras with vast SD cards, TiVos, troves of legacy music both digital and analog, and fast Internet connections capable downloading not just songs but full movies. With all that on our hard drives, it can seem impossible to get a handle on all those various types of media. What good are photos if they live their whole lives on the backside of your SD card?
Roxio Creator 2012 Pro represents a unified solution for video & photo enhancement and sharing, DVD creation, music file editing, and data backup. Significantly, it's also able to convert most video file types to DivX format so you can view them on DVD players, gaming consoles, and other compatible devices. Why learn and maintain a variety of programs that only do a fraction of the job? Creator 2012 Pro handles all these tasks and more with grace. The affordable software package could replace the ad-hoc collection of one-task solutions that you might have cobbled together up to now.
Creator 2012 Pro won't just help handle the existing tasks you want to execute – it will take you to the next level. Its 3D capabilities will have you creating three-dimensional photos and videos out of source material that was either 2D or 3D. With the right viewing equipment and a little help from Creator 2012 Pro, you'll be hosting screenings of your own 3D slideshows and videos in no time.
Moreover, you'll be accomplishing things that you might have never before even considered attempting, such as creating custom ringtones from your songs, beat-matching your music mixes (automatically!), and converting your TiVo'd video for later viewing on your mobile device.
Maybe you just want to schedule backups to your hard drive and upload videos to YouTube in just one step. Or maybe you want to explore the finer points of image enhancement, file conversion, and DVD authoring so you can become the most accomplished & prolific auteur among your friends. Whatever the task, Creator 2012 Pro gives you the tools to do it all easily.

Comments about Roxio Creator 2012 Pro (Windows):
It was time to get rid of the old Roxio Creator and get the sparking new Roxio Creator Pro 2012, so I purchased the new product. I went to uninstall the old product and low and behold when I went to restart the computer to install the newest version, my computer crashed and will not restart in anyway or any mode. I tried everything to get my computer to run, but nothing will work. I decided to contact Roxio and found they have no customer phone support and will not help me by email because in their words "I would like to help you with the issue you have in Roxio Creator. Unfortunately, Roxio Creator and all other versions prior to it are now no longer sold or supported by Roxio and hence are called as legacy products. I know this is not the answer you want to hear and if I put myself in your shoes it would be frustrating for me too. Unfortunately, our hands are tied up at this situation." So Roxio won't even help you at all especially if it's their products that caused the problem. Do not purchase this product, it will only bring you heartache when you go to uninstall it in the future. I lost everything on my Computer and I mean everything. Years of photos, all email addresses, accounting, music and so much more is all gone! Thank you for nothing Roxio!

Comments about Roxio Creator 2012 Pro (Windows):
To this day, I have not been able to install the program. It gets half way through, and then rolls back.
I've been in contact with Roxio. Followed all their advise, till I finally gave up and relized that I bought a lemon, and there was nothing I could do about it.
