• Satellite U500 - 11G - cannot activate the upgrade to Windows 7

  Really sorry to this topic, but with the new Satellite U500 - 11G can not activate the upgrade to Windows 7. Keep told by entering the serial number that it was origonally installed with Vista, but no info on how to activate it.

  Any help here please?

  Hi mate

  The Toshiba pre-installed Vista OS has already been activated.

  AFAIK if you upgraded the operating system Vista to Win 7 using the Toshiba Windows 7 upgrade kit then a Win 7 must be already activated and does not need to be enabled separately

  See you soon

  Hello

  I think that Windows Vista, which is installed on a computer, is determined only for this computer and cannot be used for another computer.

  If you want to upgrade your second computer with Windows XP in Windows Vista, you must purchase another license, which include a new product key.

• Activate the upgrade of windows 8 installed the new SSD

  Yesterday, I received a new SSD and I wanted to replace my current SSD. I knew it was not going to be easy to do this, I think that MS hates me :-(.

  In any case, I have a 8 win upgrade key. So what I did is first install win 7 on my new SSD but the problem was, I couldn't activate win 7. The message was that this key was already in use (which could be true because my current SSD has been improved for this key).

  So I continued and installed win 8 hollow upgrade its Web site. Finally, when I try to activate I get this lovely error "0xc004c003 the activation server determined that the specified product key is blocked. I googled and the result was MS hates you. Now, I am very sad and don't know what I just loved and hated not being. I tried phone activation and other tips of register of google, but it wouldn't help.

  If I plug my old SSD I can see that windows 8 is enabled and works but I don't know how to get a clean install on my new SSD.

  Please stop hating me :'-(

• Install the older version before the upgrade version

  I have a similar situation but different problem: my iMac crash and had a new hard drive replaced and need to reinstall Adobe CS2 to upgrade to CS5 (version bought several years ago). Problem is now impossible to install CS2 on the new Mac OS X EL Capitan version 10.11.5. You have to install CS2 in order to continue to install CS5. The CS2 DVD cannot start the installation! He said that the PowerPC applications are more supported. But I bought the CS2 and CS5 (improved version) with licenses valid and authentic. How to solve this problem? Help, please. Thank you.

  You need not install the older version to install/activate the upgrade.  All updates are stand-alone versions.  When you go to activate the version upgrade, that he determines that there is no version older than qualification and asking you to identify the old version and provide its serial number as proof that you are eligible to use the upgrade.

• The upgrade with the new computer

  I've been with Photoshop since version 2.5.1. I've updated by CD receiver and downloads on Adobe's Web site. I plan to buy a new computer and upgrade to PS CS6. How much of my older versions should I install to be able to buy an "upgrade"?

  You don't need to install an older version to buy an upgrade.  To activate the upgrade, you will just need to have the serial number of the product you qualified for the upgrade.

• Pavilion dv6: Intel Centrino Wireless - n 2230 will not activate after the upgrade to Windows 10

  Model A3E82AV number

  I've been avoiding Windows 10 because I knew something like this was going to happen, but I took the pludge.  Anyway, everything seemed to work but my wireless adapter.  After the upgrade, the rocker on the keyboard turns on and outside airplane mode, and I can't switch to map wireless in Windows settings.
  
  I can get wireless adapter to turn on, go into that in a minute, but if I shutdown or reboot, the problem returns.
  
  I had success in the driver update, or by manually installing the driver, I even read a tip to make the battery, hold the power button down while the battery is out and run it upwards.  I tried to reset the BIOs to default settings.  When the computer feels like it, the wireless adapter will start working after a reboot.  If I have the toggle switch, the light goes from orange to white, I can then activate wireless and connect to my SSID.  If I stop or restart, my wireless NETWORK card no longer works and we return to the toggle keyboard turning power on and off airplane mode.  Device Manager says it is working normally and the drivers are up to date.

  I read a post from microsoft that says VPN adapters could cause corruption while making the upgrade.  I'm a professional, so I got a handful of cards, but also virtual cards VMWare Workstation installed, so I tried to come back to Win 7, remove the adapters, are re-upgrade.  It does not solve the issue.  While I was back in Windows 7, everything worked most of the time, but there were some problems with the programs, etc. which would not work right.  When I upgraded to Windows 10, some of these problems persist, so I checked my backups to make sure they were up to date and did a new install of windows 10.  I am now running a new image with just firefox, associate of HP and the different drivers Intel, I tried to install, and I still can't get the card wireless to tour consistantly on / off power after a reboot.  I thought for sure the nuclear option could solve the problem now I can't even go back to Windows 7.  I did mention to try some recommended drivers Intel, I found in other posts... I also tried to uninstall the driver, and install in compatibility mode, but that has not worked, either.
  
  This one had me scratching my head.  I tried literally everything I can find on the internet in an attempt to solve the problem, and nothing will keep the work of consistantly wireless NETWORK card.  Any other ideas out there?
  
  Looking at the forums, appears not to have a lot of people in all areas of this issue with different brands of computers and network interface cards.  If anyone knows anything else to try, I would really appreciate it.

  FIXED!

  I think so.  I downloaded and installed the bios for Windows 8.  After that, I managed shutdown and booted my laptop 3 times and restarted once.  Every time you start after the installation of the firmware BIOs, the card automatically turned on and connected to my SSID NETWORK.  Since the upgrade to Windows 10 I saw not the laptop automatically start and connect the wireless NETWORK card and he did successfully 4 times now.
  
  The file that I downloaded from the HP Web site was update the BIOs for Windows 8 version F.2D rev A.  The file name is sp68425.  I will continue to monitor and make sure that it was indeed the fix, but all great so far.

  For people who can run on the same topic, here's a recap of what I did to solve my problem:

  Centrino 2230 installed 15.18.0.1 driver
  Update driver Bluetooth 10.0.10586.0

  Updated the BIOS to the version of Windows 8 F.2D Rev A
  
  If you decide to play with the BIOs firmware, just be aware that if things go well, you could cause more damage to your system.  I would only try this method if you are uncomfortable for the recovery of a faulty BIOS installation.

• Cannot activate Windows 8 error "the Software Licensing service determind that specified only usable product key for the upgrade not to own pieces."

  Original title: invalid product key :(

  Today, I tried to load my computer and was faced with the blue screen error short story that my hard drive some how became corrupt and had no partition. Fortunately, I had a friend who told me step by step how to solve this problem using my hard drive in my brothers pc. When it came to reinstalling windows I booted the computer directly from my windows disc 8 and when I tried to activate the key once I was ready to I received an error Code: 0xC004F061Description: The Software Licensing service determind that specified only usable product key for the upgrade not for own pieces. Means that I can not use the key I bought and must buy a new one? It seems really unfair because I've already spent money on the upgrade.

  You upgraded to Windows 8, but did not have an earlier version of Windows Installer (error 0xC004F061)

  If you see error 0xC004F061 when you try to activate Windows 8, this means that you are using a product key for an upgrade of Windows 8 version and a previous version of Windows wasn't on your PC when Windows 8 was installed. To install a Windows 8 upgrade version, you must already have Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP installed on your PC.

  If you have formatted the drive until the upgrade of Windows 8 version has been installed, you will not be able to use your upgrade product key to activate Windows 8. To activate Windows 8, you will need to install your previous version of Windows, and then reinstall Windows 8. Help with the activation process, contact technical support.

• Cool eco does not activate the Portege Z10T after upgrading to Win 8.1

  I mainly use my Ultrabook plugged in power & after upgrade to 8.1 Win Win 8 the "Eco-Office" is no longer active, constantly charge the battery to 100% when it should be 80%. I discharged the battery up to 10% and then active eco-responsible, but without success.

  Anyone have a solution please?

  First question:
  After the upgrade of Windows 8 to 8.1 Windows did you download the installation drivers Toshiba and such software mentioned in the installation instructions located on the Toshiba UE driver page?

  Its very important to install and update the Toshiba Utilities to get a good Win 8.1 working system.
