I have just installed another 509 Build and upgraded it to the beta build . . . . follow these instructions TO THE LETTER and it should work . . .
Install the standard MT4 build 509 to a NEW folder outside of Program Files . . .
when it MT4 starts cancel the Open an Account dialogue box . . .
Click Login, set Login to blank, Password to blank and Server to: demo.metaquotes.net:443
NOW click Open an Account, fill in all the required information, click Next > . . . and you will be able to select the demo.metaquotes.net server . . .
. . . now click Next > . . . you now have an a User account on the MetaQuotes demo server. Restart this installation of MT4 . . . when it starts it should automatically close, it is now doing the update, if it doesn't close, restart it again after waiting a few minutes . . . if you have a slow Internet connection you will have to wait a little longer while the update files are downloaded . . . after it closes it updates and will restart itself.
Once it restarts itself you will have the current beta build . . . I have just done exactly what I have described, IT WORKS.

Nice instructions RaptorUK, but I can't get it to work, even following the instructions to the letter.
No matter how many times I close and reopen the 509 version (with demo-metaquotes.net:443 as server), it refuses to install 574. Remains with 509. I've redone the procedure 3 times and still no luck.
Where did you get your 509 from? Your usual broker I assume.
Any further advice appreciated.

Are waiting long enough to get the update ? You need to have the following entry in your Journal tab.
19:45:43.543 LiveUpdate: new version 4.00 build 579 is available
...
19:46:36.303 LiveUpdate: finished
When you get the "LiveUpdate: finished" you can restart.
I got the 509 installer from MetaQuotes . . . here on this page : MetaTrader4
You opened a Demo account with the 509 build ?
Still no luck, but thanks RaptorUK

Sounds like you are doing it correctly . . . just give it a little time, if you have a slow Internet connection it may take a few minutes to download the update.
I just did another 509 install, after creating an account I get the following in the Journal . . .
