Hi oni185,
Welcome to the McAfee Communities. To try and assist you, may I kindly ask you a few pertinent questions? When you say you purchased the "2014 Version" ,had your prior version expired ? In addition, did you follow the proper procedures of uninstalling from your "Control Panel"/ restart? Then utilize the latest MCPR Tool ( Which can be found at the top of the page under "Useful Links"/ Restart afterwards as well. Upon a prompt indicating "Clean-up Successful"
You may want to run the McAfee Pre-install Tool as well now, before going to your account to Download and install your "New Version"
When you go to your Account, is your (Prior Subscription) still showing?
Did you purchase from McAfee directly, or from a Vendor?
If you feel that you may benefit from contacting McAfee support, I am confident that they cann assist you in your installation issues. I am experiencing difficulty presently with the board, so it is difficult for me to insert necessary links.
Here is the McAfee Pre-Install tool to use after MCPR, before installing MTP:http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/McPreInstall.exe
Hope fully one of the Moderators will pickup on this thread and add to the discussion. A link to support is under "Useful Links as well.
Regards

Also you should know that Technical Support is free of charge by phone or online chat and available also through Useful Links at the top of this page should you need help.
To further assist you in your Uninstallation/Installation follow the guidelines listed here:
