Bought a new PC. Can I use my old copy of Windows XP Professional on the new computer? If so, how can I migrate this course?
Hello.. I bought a Microsoft Windows XP Professional genuine Cd a few years ago. But my PC is now out of use due to some electrical problems and WIN XP
has been installed on this computer. Now, I bought a new PC how can I obtain a new permit for the same windows, that I am able to use it on my new PC? Thank you
original title: new license for my WIN XP
It seems that you bought an XP license retail. If so, you can just install this same drive with the same license key on your new machine as your old machine is no longer operational. A retail license should be transferable, while an OEM license is bound to the first machine that it has been installed on.
Details are set out on this Microsoft license FAQ:
"Of Microsoft license issues.

My hard drive died on my old desktop I bought windows 7 ultimate, I updated to windows XP that came on the Dell to Win7 from the month last shortly after I installed it, I got a cell phone game to my brother, and now that I have a computer again, I would really go back to Win7 ultimate Win7 home located on here as well as to get a good new start with my laptop.
The only thing that that worries me is the product key, I am able to use my Win7 from the month last to upgrade from home? As I said, I want a new start on the laptop I have gave me, but I can't afford to pay another $ 380 for Win7 Ultimate. The office that I used was old, and he finally bit the dust. The hard drive is dead, and now the office went too computer heaven.
Any help will be great. Im just a little bit disappointed, because I put my copy of Win7 from the month last on a computer that died some time after, and now I'm on nearly 400 OS on something I'm not quite sure that I can use again.
Yes, you can reuse the Windows 7 Ultimate license, you may have to reactivate if by phone.
If the license for Windows 7 Ultimate, you have access to is a retail version update or complete, you can use the product key and the Express upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Ultimate. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Ultimate edition at the request, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify you updating the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate files the stored settings and programs.
How to activate Windows 7 manually (activate by phone)
1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4

I recently bought a new computer with no phone jack. I want to connect a landline to him if I can use my phone. Is there a way, or the thing I can buy so it's possible. A usb modem would work in this situation for me?

Hello waylonx3, here is the link for the specifications of your system. It shows that your system has 2 slots, PCIe and a PCI slot.
Your system should be able to use one of these modems of type. I would check the motherboard of the system to make sure that you have a PCI slot or available PCIe and then you can order one that will work in your system.
Here is a link to Amazon, where you can see some phone PCIe and PCI modems. They also appear in other places.

I just bought a new computer phone n want to spend all my outlook folders to the new unit. How can I do
Put the .pst file from your old machine on a USB key with sufficient capacity or burn it to a CD - R. Copy the .pst to your new computer. Place it in your directory My Documents.
Open Outlook on the new computer and set up your email accounts. Get the settings from the server of your Internet service provider's Web site if you do not know. There is usually a tutorial to set up different email clients.
MVP Hal Hostetler:
1. When you copy the. Your old HD to the new PST file, place it in a folder where it will NOT overwrite any existing. PST files; crush one. PST file that is in use can cause profile corruption.
2 should NEVER use Outlook Import and export functions with. PST files. This feature is broken and has been for some time. It often helps translates into corruption of the profiles, the more you lose the following data:
1. custom Forms
2 custom views
3. links between contacts and activities
4 receipt dates on mail
5 birthdays and other events in the calendar
6. journal connections
7. distribution listsAll you need to do is open Outlook on the new machine, go into "file |" Open | Outlook data file ", browse to your old." PST, and then click OK. You now have access to all your old data. You can do this. Default PST file and continue to use it, or drag and drop its content in the new 2007 Outlook created during installation.

I have a computer with windows 7 to run on it. I have 2 files of images on my current computer and bought a new computer with windows installed 10. Can I copy these files to a dvd and transfer them to the new computer with windows 10 installed. If so, how can I do it and ask what I should do?
Hello Kenneth
See my response to a similar q in the thread above...
You can use DVD or CD, but an external drive or a USB is so much faster and easier.

BOUGHT A NEW COMPUTER AND CAN NOT GET ON INTERNET
Windows 8 and Verizon DSL Westell Modem anyone someone please help! Just bought a new computer and unable to access the internet.
Hello
Is it wireless or wired modem?
I use one of them at the moment, and all I had to do with my new computer it is branch...
The modem has already been activated from a previous computer, however.
If it's a combo of wireless\wired modem... 7100 or something like that, try using a wired connection instead of wireless to start... I use a 6100 model that is a bit old, so it may be different from yours.
If it's the new Verizon service and the modem has never been activated, you will need to call Verizon and ask them to guide you through the installation process. It is a thing of the time. Subsequently, you can plug another\more machines without going through the process again.
An exception might be if you were to use a paperclip to press the Reset button on the modem...
If you use a wireless connection, there is most likely a password that you must use the wireless capability... You may need to contact Verizon for this also if you do not remember how to set up.

I just bought a new computer, and I just discovered that I can't spend my version of 12 items from my old PC to my new PC because it came with a license for one computer only. I bought 14 items today at the store. How can I move all of my photos of 12 items on my old PC (which are all nicely filed), for my new PC in 14 elements? I would appreciate any help with my question. Thank you.
Hello
You must make a backup of your catalog with items 12 and then restore using 14 items. A guide for the backup and restore are help from Elements Organizer | Back up or restore the catalogs.

I just bought a new computer, I can transfer photoshop or what I have to buy again
I just bought a new computer, I can transfer photoshop or what I need to buy yet?
You don't have to buy a new license for the software you have already purchased. You don't want to transfer, Adobe programs must be installed by using installation files. Just install and activate it using the serial number of the initial installation.
You are allowed to have a facility enabled on both machines, so if you want, you can keep the old installation on the new one as well. This way you have a backup if you need it.
If you want you can disable the old installation by opening the program and by selecting help-> Deactivate.

If you log on to your account on https://cloud.acrobat.com/acrobat, you can download Acrobat to your new computer. Once you have it installed, you can connect using your Adobe ID and password, and you're all set!
Please let us know how it goes.
