Can't activate Windows 7 Basic and we tried all the advice... what to do now?
I bought a netbook with Windows 7 Starter is installed. No Windows disk was provided with it. I bought a Windows 7 Home Basic Service Pack 1 by the Sahara, for my office. Unfortunately, I lost the product key, which I got through Belarc. I re-installed my Windows Basic on my netbook, but it does not accept the product key to activate windows. I tried to change the product key. Microsoft has confirmed that this is a genuine windows product. How to activate windows on my netbook?

When I try to enter my customer number to connect to my online banking Web site, an error message reads:
This form has been re-introduced. Re-enter your customer number and only submit once only.When I called the Bank to see if they could help they said it was a browser issue and suggested I should use IE or Chrome (no thanks!).
I went through all the Firefox suggested remedial troubleshooting including deleting cookie files. I have not yet tried the reset Firefox because I was expecting a simpler solution before taking this step.
Thanks for any help you may be able to offer.

Good people you've heard of this one before:
I can connect to my basic admin account, but not others. I tried to create new user accounts after you delete the old user accounts but system would not apparently carry out process. I get the following warning:
Service user profile Service failed to connect
User profile cannot be loaded.I tried all of the recommended patches (see list below)
1 ran all appropriate steps as stated in the article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947215 - no joy
There is not other profiles listed in the register except the administrator account on the basis and since I couldn't connect successfully to a user apparently newly created accounts, the profile has not completed the process of generation.2. I have not ran the SFC system - no joy. He replied with the following: Windows Resource Protection did not find any breach of integrity.
Then... of other big ideas?

The time zone is correct, it is signed through "iCloud" in the settings and all the apps work relatively well, including those who are in need of the internet, so the problem is not the internet. However, the Air iPad is more connect to iTunes, it is impossible to update anything. It won't let me reconnect through 'iTunes and App Store' in settings, just tell me that it can't connect to iTunes everytime I try it. I also noticed that Game Center is strange, his page in settings will not be same load and he often delay signing in when I open an application compatible with it. My iOS is updated to 9.3.1. The only thing I can think is that I had to change my password recently, but he had me to login with the new password on the device, and this problem did not show up a few days later. I am at a loss on what to do at this point, and I already tried all suggested fixes Apple support. Are there patches less known who could solve this problem? Or, is this a widespread problem that apple is having this time with their servers?
Hi TimeSeerStudios
I don't see the failure:
