Re: Labview 2013 - FRC2014 season - license timeout
The FRC LabVIEW license from this past season does not have an expiration.
In addition, the older expiration dates were always a week after Kickoff, so you've got something funny going on.

Could you have originally installed a non-KOP version of LabVIEW 2013?
I'd suggest reinstalling and re-activating the license from the KOP version.

Into the future, I'd suggest keeping LabVIEW 2013 installed and set aside on some spare machine in order to work with and keep your older cRIOs active and useful.
The new LabVIEW for this year will be backward compatible with the 4-slot cRIOs, but not with the 8-slot cRIOs.
The palettes and code has only a couple of minor changes for 2015, so working under the older LabVIEW should transfer to the new platform pretty effortlessly.

LabVIEW 2013 and this season's LabVIEW 2014 don't cohabitate on the same machine very gracefully.
