How to activate a degraded version of Win XP?

I have a version to reinstall Windows 7 Pro, and a Win XP Pro installation disc.  I also have a product for Windows 7 Pro activation key, but it won't work with the XP installation.  If I try to phone (automated system) activation or activation online by using my key of Win 7, or come back as valid activations.  How can I activate?  Is there another phone number where I can actually talk to a person and not an automated system?

Hello

If you want to downgrade from WINDOWS 7 Pro in WinXP Pro - you can use any installation CD in WinXP Pro with the product key (CD with the product key can be used on another computer) and install it.

The activation , you have to do by phone , if the product key is already used. If this isn't the case, you can do the activation online via Internet.

(The productkey must be to Windows XP Professional, that you can not use the product key of Windows 7 and try using with WinXP Pro)

  • How to activate the trial version of lightroom 3

    Hello

    I'm new here and need help.

    I downloaded the trial version of lightroom 3 in my windows home computer and like it a lot. I then buy a copy of the box that will happen only after two weeks. However, I don't plan to install it on my computer at home, but my new imac computer at my desk where I do all my photo editing.

    My problem is that I can't wait two weeks to get the product. Can I download another version to test for my new imac in my office and when the box product comes from what I can simply use the serial number and activate the trial version or do I need to uninstall the trial version and reinstall again. According to my seller, she said I can't do that because I need to reinstall the box again product that seems weird to me.

    My other question is the earlier trial version I have installed in my home computer, I do not plan to use it more, so can I just ignore it?

    Thanks in advance.

    Importing photos updates information for each of them in the LR catalog, which is just a database that LR can read and write.  Reopening of the catalog with a new installation of LR looks like LR where each of these pictures is, and what adjustments you made.  You must re-import as long that you reopen the file catalog even with the new facility.  You can try this on Windows: uninstall-reinstall-reopen and see how it works at ease with her.   Simply re-import if you lose your catalog and have to start again.  If you write metadata in files, automatically via a preference, either manually via the menu point mode metadata and grid, then you can even have your intact adjustments if you need to import, but you will lose your history and other things that are only in the catalogue and not in sidecar XMP files.  These sidecar files is probably the only way to transfer the changes to the PC version for Mac from LR version which probably had not considered.  At least I don't think that you can copy the catalog LR from a PC file and open it on a Mac.

    If the LR trial expires before you have a serial number then you can't use it, but once you do not enter the serial number, you can pick up where you left off.

    Lightroom is not activated as Photoshop where there is a file Adobe-server from each computer and the serial number.  LR is just a non-proces, a trial has expired or recorded.  LR is intelligent enough to understand if you have installed it on the computer before, so you can't expand a trial in uninstalling and reinstalling without reformatting your hard drive and reinstall the operating system, or at least, I think that's enough.

  • How to activate the trial version to the version complete with serial number?

    I bought Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium, but it was the version of Windows that I needed the Mac. I was sent a new serial number of Mac, and the representative of Adobe said I could download free and put in serial number trial version to the full version, but I can't figure out how.

    Hi cayebug92,

    When you proceed with the installation of the software, it will prompt you to enter the serial number to continue installation.

    If you have already installed the software, then whenever you first run the software, a window would come in indicating the no. of days remaining for the use of the trial as well as a dialog box to enter the serial number to activate.

    You can also launch the application and navigate to the 'Help' menu and select 'enable '. The activation screen came to get the serial number of your part, enter the serial number and the trial is converted to a full version.

  • How to activate an old version of Lightroom?

    I bought Creative cloud a few months ago and recently reset my computer. I downloaded an older version of Lightroom, because the latest version on the CC has slow down my computer. is there a way I can activate this version without having to purchase a new activation code?

    There is no activation mechanism in older than 6 Lightroom versions.

    If you mean you want to install Lightroom 5 or earlier then the only way to do this is with a serial number and the only way to get one is by buying a copy. However, Adobe sells more than 5 Lightroom you need to try a retailer like Amazon.

  • How to activate a trial version of 30 days of the stand-alone LR5 once I bought the upgrade?

    A long time user of standalone LR (LR4).   Downloaded the trial of 30 days of the stand-alone LR5.  I liked it, so a few days later, I went online and had bought the upgrade of LR4 LR5 stnadalone.   Got the order confirm # and the serial number.   Thought I was AOK.  Today, the 30-day period should have expired and I have yet to use the verssion of the trial, because the develop Module is disabled.  Module dev had simply a message that says stop LR, restart, and then sign in to creative cloud.   I do not have a creative cloud subscription and when I restart, I just go back to the LR 5 disabled.   How 'enable' if that's the right word, my stand-alone bought LR 5 copy?   Mac OS 10.10.1 LR 5.7.1

    I went to the Chat line and my problem was solved.  Seems that my downloaded trial version was on the side creative cloud of the Adobe world and not the side autonomous that I wanted.   The Customer Service representative told me through the removal of the trial version, then trial preference file.  Then, he provided a direct link to download the standalone version of LR 5.  When it's done downloading, I should be able to do a normal install and enter the serial number I got a month ago, when I bought the upgrade.

  • How to activate a free version of Lightroom?

    With my digital camera Nx 300, I received a free copy of Lightroom (v 4). After the installation on my Mac mini, I wonder to enter the security code that was not in the beam. The only option is a 30 days trial period. How to work around this problem?

    Thank you!

    You probably have to talk to the guy who gave you the software to see what you need to do if it is really meant to be free and not only a trial version.

    I have recently installed Windows 10 and had to re - install Photoshop CS2 Version 8. It works very well but he says it's a trial version how to activate it?

    You can not activate Photoshop CS2 as long as obsolete Adobe product activation server. Instead, you will need to download a special version that uses a different serial number, and does not need activation. Note the serial number to the right of the product name. Your existing serial number will not work
