Activation code does not work

I bought a computer used compaq laptop with XP Professional.  It's a phone company of Ratheon.    I was not provided the CD original windows XP.  I need to reload the operating system, so I used an other XP Professional CD to install the operating system.  Now the activation from the bottom of the laptop does not work.

I called the phone number on the activation of windows page, and who does not.
Because I don't have the original windows XP Professional CD for this laptop, how can I activate windows?

Hello

you have the right installation with Windows XP Professional CD, then you will be able to use your product key from the bottom of the laptop.

Here you can see some COA labels:

https://SkyDrive.live.com/?CID=23FD66EFD8D06B76&ID=23FD66EFD8D06B76%21113#CID=23FD66EFD8D06B76&ID=23FD66EFD8D06B76%21198

How you can see on the photo - the COA label is for Windows XP Professional OEM, then you must use with Windows XP Professional OEMCD.

Here you can see some of the labels cost another:

https://SkyDrive.live.com/?CID=23FD66EFD8D06B76&ID=23FD66EFD8D06B76%21113#CID=23FD66EFD8D06B76&ID=23FD66EFD8D06B76%21199

The COA label is for Windows XP Professional FPP, so you cannot use the Windows XP Professional OEMCD.

You can try calling the 'Microsoft Activation Center:

http://www.Microsoft.com/licensing/existing-customers/activation-centers.aspx

and tell the operator your product key - he could tell you what Windows XP installation CD to use with your product key.

  • my serial code does not work how can I make it work

    my serial code does not work how can I make it work thank you

    Hello

    If you have a creative cloud subscription then you do not require a serial number to activate it, all you need to do is sign with your ID (Email used at purchase) Adobe in creative application Cloud to activate your membership. See,

    Connect and disconnect activate Cloud Creative applications

    Solve common problems of activation and deactivation of creative cloud.

    Activation and deactivation of troubleshooting

    Find solutions to activation errors that may occur during the launch of Adobe applications.

    I checked with your Adobe Id on the forums that there is no active subscriptions to this topic.

    If you have any other Adobe id try please activate the products with that.

  • jQuery code does not work in phonegap

    Someone gave me a code https://jsfiddle.net/adeneo/2uod274d/ jsfiddle

    It works well in jsfiddle, but when I put the code in my Xcode and amended to incorporate my code and run it in the Simulator, the code does not work at all (i.e., no data is stored in the local storage)

    I am building an app for iOS with phonegap. JS:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="cordova.js"></script>
      
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.1.0.min.js"></script>
      
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.js"></script>

      
    <script type="text/javascript">
      document.addEventListener("deviceready",onDeviceReady,false);

      function onDeviceReady() {

      document.getElementById("btnSave").addEventListener("click",saveData,false);
      document.getElementById("btnShow").addEventListener("click",showData,false);
    }

      function saveData(){
      var data = window.localStorage.getItem("date");

      var dates = data ? JSON.parse(data) : [];

      dates.push( new Date() );

      window.localStorage.setItem("date", JSON.stringify(dates));

      alert("Your data is stored");
      }

      function showData() {
      var data = JSON.parse(window.localStorage.getItem("date"));
      console.log(data);
      $('#res').html(JSON.stringify(data));
      $(this).html('Update result');
      }

    < /script >

    HTML:

    <button id="btnSave"> Save Data </button>

      
    <button id="btnShow"> Show Data </button>

    I don't know what is happening because the code works well in jsfiddle, but for some reason any just does not work in my phonegap.

    Post edited by: Fang Kerry, I added my complete code is easier to see the problem (if any)

    jQuery has nothing to do with this, as far as I can tell (so not sure why it is in your title). The problem is that the result of JSON.parse (data) is not an array, what you think it is, it's a chain. The chain respond well to 'push '. I get that when you use this code in jsfiddle he is somehow coming out as a table, but I think it must be because of something done jsfiddle. When I do the same commands in the console of my browser, I get a string, not a table, so your problem.

    Instead:

    function deserializeDates() {
        var data = window.localStorage.getItem("date");
        var dates = []; // worst case, we'll return an empty array.
        if (data) {
            try {
                dates = JSON.parse(data);
                 // handle the case that dates is a single item and not an array
                if (!(dates instanceof Array)) {
                    dates = [dates];
                }
            } catch (err) {
                 // the stored dates failed to parse for some reason; you might want to do something about it
                 console.log("Failed to parse " + data);
             }
        }
        return dates;
    }
    
    function serializeDates(dates) {
        window.localStorage.setItem("date", JSON.stringify(dates));
    }
    
    function saveData(){
         var dates = deserializeDates();
        dates.push( new Date() );
         serializeDates(dates);
        alert("Your data is stored");
    }
    
    function showData() {
         var dates = deserializeDates();
        console.log(dates);
        ...
      }
