How to activate Office Home and Business when the installed copies is only 3?

I installed 3 copies of Office Home and Business installed on 3 existing computers. One of the computers has been damaged and I deleted all the programs installed on it and then it is up to the seller. Then, I bought a used computer and installed Office Home and Business on this computer. I tried to activate the installed program but I couldn't activate the program. I tried to activate by phone, but it says that my copy activation exceeded 3 authorized copies. This is not correct. How can I get the program active?

Office Home and Business cannot be installed on a single computer (only Home and Student can serve for three computers), you need two product keys more purchase. However if you 3 keys, one for each computer and then try the following:

You can telephone an Activation Center and activate your product with the help of a customer service representative.
 
Important  
Phone numbers of activation do not appear in this article, because there are a lot of numbers, and the correct number for you depends on several factors. Microsoft software can be obtained under various licenses, including individual retail licenses, original (OEM) licenses, and volume licenses OEM. Phone numbers vary by product license and country/region. In step 2 of the Activation Wizard, use the phone number provided to contact the Microsoft Activation Center.

Telephone activation may take longer than activation through the Internet. You should be at your computer when you call, and you should have your software product key.

  • Bought the office home and student.

    I tried 4 or 5 times to download asking a the same question on every program I try to open. Enter the PRODUCT KEY! Does'nt Outlook open a what slep when you need so bad.  JC

    If your computer has a trial version of Office Home and Student edition is installed, often what will happen is, it will also install other Office programs such as Access and Outlook that are normally not part of this edition. Its a methodology of upsell. If you have purchased only the license for home and student, only programs and Home and Student will be activated (Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote). If you want the perspective, you can buy a key for that.

  • Activation of Microsoft Office Home and Student 2010 problem, error: exceeded the number of times allowed to activate.

    Original title: reactivation.

    I bought Office Home and Student 2010 when I bought a new laptop. Over time, I have had problems with laptop computer and had to reload Office several times. Now, I bought another laptop and when I try to load the office he told me that I have exceeded the number of times authorized to activate. Is there a way around this or should I buy again?

    I'd probably use activation by telephone method to activate. At most, you talk to a customer service representative and explain the situation and you will be activated. But, it is usually resolved by using the automated system.

When I right click on Firefox (for example) it says 'READ' rather than 'OPEN' and then displays the Adobe error box. The only other answer I received (from Ask.com) is that the update was a virus. I'm not computor savy and my pc is quite old.

  • Code 646 error when updated Vista Home for my Office Home and Student 2007 for KB976321.

    I have Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 2.  System type 32-bit operating system.  KB976321 will not update.  I have Office home and Student 2007.  Any suggestions?

    Once from time to time, you must manually install the patches.  Have you tried to download and run the patch manually (without using Windows Update)?

    If not, you can download the patch here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=160ad53e-6475-4550-90c2-444e4abea730.  Clickk download and then run.  You must accept the agreement, then click on continue.  After installing, restart Microsoft Update and click find updates.  If all goes well, it will show that you are completely patched.

    If this does not work, try to run the Microsoft OneCare safety scanner.  Sometimes it will solve problems of hidden registry, or can clear the virus that can prevent the installation of the patches: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm. Click full service scan, and then Quick scan (full scan takes a long time to complete). Try the patches.

  • How to recover photos deleted in Office home and Student 2007

    Deleted some files of picture of a USB Drive - is there a way to recover them.  I have the Windows XP Office home and Student 2007 installed in my computer.  You will appreciate any assistance.  Thank you... Violeta Galvez

    Have you looked in the trash?

    No longer use the USB (if you continued to use it after you have removed the photos, data may be irretrievable).

    Download Recuva and install it on your computer.  Then connect the USB to the computer and use Recuva to see if any of the data on the USB is recoverable.

  • Reinstallation of microsoft office home and student 2010 once laptop back to factory settings

    We will have our laptop sent through for repairs in which technicians will be restore to its factory settings.

    I currently have a MS Office Home and Student 2010 installed & activated after the purchase of a product key and download & install the software. I've save a backup of the installation file and, of course, will ensure that I don't lose my product key.

    I just want to ensure that I can reinstall MS Office in my laptop after that she is undergoing a complete restoration of the system. My license only allows me to install/activate MS Office on a single computer. I ask because I have no idea how the activation process will know that I am simply reinstall on the same computer or if a full restore of the system would make my laptop be "recognized" as another.

    All the signs are pointing me to be able to do this. But I don't want to not ask. Please confirm that I have nothing to do except save my product key and the installation file.

    Thanks in advance.

    As long as the repair does not have to replace the motherboard in the laptop, you should be able to reinstall the Office product without any problem.  Just ensure that your Win XP operating system is upgraded to SP3 before trying to install, as well as to remove any office trial programs that may have been resettled when the restoration was done.

    I bought the Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 for my laptop to buy full license. I received the confirmation email.

Everything works very well. On the confirmation (as dated 26 May 2008) e-mail, it says "PHYSICAL PRODUCTS you will receive a separate e-mail notification when your products have shipped. However:

    -In the 3rd quarter of 2008 my computer crashed and had to re - install everything new. When I tried to enter my product key (from my confirmation email) it wouldn't work. If since the 3rd quarter 2008 I do not have Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007.
    -I did not receive the physical product and does not separate email notification.

    Can someone please.

    Where you downloaded the version of student Office was that of Microsoft, or a less reliable source?
