Have the activation code but not to the disc I have.
I replaced my hard drive on an old computer. I do not have electric copy of Windows XP Home Edition activation I have I. I have the activation code for the home edition that came on my computer. It is an old computer that I don't want to buy Windows & because I intend by replacing it in 6 to 12 months.
Hello gwil5,
First of all, look carefully around in the old computer. There should be a sticker (known as a certificate of authenticity or CoA) who would have the product key for the windows initially provided with this computer.
Otherwise, if you do not find the product key for this computer, then you will need to purchase a new copy of Windows to be used on this computer.
The product key provided with your other computer cannot be used on the old computer. Windows (and product key) that are pre-installed in a computer can be used in a computer and cannot be used on other computers.
Thank you
Darin

I bought lightroom and need to register my student ID, how do I do that the trial has run out, I have the product code but not the serial number?
If you have purchased a package, then you should have instructions in the box on how to present your credentials. If you have purchased Adobe online, then you should have received instructions in an email. But here is a link that might help you. There is a link under step 2 which will lead you to a place where you can enter the information, I think.

It installed on my other windows 7 install and created the windows.old folder. How can I get reactivated? I used the same code since I built my computer.

Windows 7 - lost the activation code, but already reinstalled windows 7 completely.
So I recently bought my old Cousins computer game. He decided to do a reinstall of windows 7 Ultimate for me if I could install programs I wanted to, but he had lost the cd shirt (who had the top activation code) in the process.
I already tried many key finder programs but the code it gives me does not work and I will not buy another key for windows 7.I already tried to contact a Microsoft support person, but he refused to help me at all when I said that the PC I built piece by piece and not purchased as an all in one. Well he did specifically mention that was the reasson why he could not help me but I know that is what I know, family members and friends who helped with similer questions before.
All computer parts were purchased for reputable sorces, and none of the programs on the pc were pirated in form in any way.
I have access to the box of windows 7 ultimate is checked as well as the barcode of disk on it.
Please help me!
Anyone in these forums has the power to give you a new key or unlock any key.
In fact, Microsoft NEVER release a key.
Your only options are:
(1) IF you have the proof of purchase (in the case of an OEM System Integrator, it is especially the COA sticker) then the phone activation center and explain the situation.
(2) purchasing a new Windows license

8.5.1 activation codes are not in the list
I have not received the 8.5.1 activation code for my product OR CVI. the 8.5 and 9.0 is the only products on the list.
You can go to ni.com/activate to generate an activation code for the CVI 8.5.1. You just need your computer ID (found in the License Manager OR) and your serial number.

LR 30 day trial bought the educational version &; activation code does not
Hello
I bought an iMac 5K and used the opening on my old machine. Thought it was a good time to upgrade to 5 LR.
The 30-day trial and decided yes I was very happy has downloaded the software. I bought the educational version and received my code by email. This code is not being accepted by LR 5.7.1.
The downloadable version is different from the one I have purchased?
I have to remove the version I have installed and then use the disk? If this is the case can I reload my past 2 weeks going to LR?
Thanks a lot for your help.
