Why can i not view videos with the “trial membership”? am i doing something wrong?

Susan,
Your best bet is to contact IDEA directly: 1-800-999-4332

You should just become a member! This site is a great place for tons of fresh information! I rejoined recently and love the benefits.

I just did this, you sign up for whatever membership your interested in from the “become a member page”. You will automatically be granted your trial membership (30 days) so you will not be billed until the end of that period, and it gives you an exact date you must cancel by to avoid billing. Of course it asks for your CC # first. I recommend you mark your calendar with your cancellation date so you can make your educated decision before you are charged.
