Hi guys, I have a problem with my cc of muse, sometimes I try to add a new widget that I downloaded, but my muse says 'check if a new version of muse is out' what could be the problem because most of the widgets I want to use cant load in my library
Hello
Muse 2014 is actually not the most recent version. Adobe has recently released the Muse of 2015. Your Adobe Creative Cloud application should notify you when new updates are available.
I uninstall Muse 2014 and install Muse 2015 if you have the required hardware and software.
Kind regards

I recently bought an Asus laptop that came with a genuine product key Vista Business OEM. I want to downgrade to XP and have installed a copy of XP OEM for this purpose I have found information on the internet indicating that I would be able to contact Microsoft, explain my desire to downgrade, to provide them with my Vista Business product key, and they would provide me a product key for XP, I could then use to activate the copy of XP I have installed.
However, it seems that it is more possible, because all the support activation is automated, and I was able to get a Microsoft service on the phone representative to activate my new installation of XP. How can I do to receive a product key for XP and activation of my installation?
Thank you
Scott
Thanks for the replies, you two! I called Asus, and they said that, since they do not recommend the downgrade, they do not downgrade disks provide, or provide for XP Pro license keys in case a user wants to downgrade. I told them about the rights of download, which I had heard before on the MS site support and they have always said they wouldn't / couldn't provide me with a license key, even if it was for OEM Windows XP distribution. Ah, well!
I don't think that Asus just "recommended" it or not!
They must conform to Microsoft.

I currently have vista 32 professional and I want to upgrade to windows 7, I understand that I must use windows 7 Professional
is this correct and just use the regular windows 7 pro upgrade disc?
original title: Vista Business 32 - windows 7
If you want to make a room upgrade, you can use Windows 7 Pro 32-bit - you can buy and use the upgrade version. You can also buy Home Premium, but will need to perform a custom installation.
How to upgrade to Windows 7:
If you have Vista:
Update: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/help/upgrading-from-windows-vista-to-windows-7
Custom installation: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/help/upgrading-from-windows-vista-to-windows-7-custom
Then my computer run Windows 7?
Basic system requirements are listed below. Features have additional requirements.1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x 86) or 64-bit (x 64) processor
1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)
16 GB of disk space available (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
Graphical device DirectX 9 with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver
Run Windows Upgrade Advisor to see if there are known problems that might affect installation and if you need to install the 32-bit or the 64 bit version of Windows 7.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/UpgradeAdvisorInstallation - 'upgrade' means what?
Upgrade means that you can install Windows 7 simply by inserting the Windows 7 upgrade software in the DVD drive of your PC and follow the instructions on the screen. While you are not required to backup and reinstall your files, or reinstall your programs, it is a very good idea to back up your files and settings before you start any upgrade to the software. Get more information on the software updates and best practices .Installation - what does "Custom (Clean)" Mean?
A custom (clean) installation clears the contents of the hard drive of your PC. Your files, settings, and programs will not be transferred to Windows 7. This means that to install Windows 7, you must:Back up any files and settings you want to keep
Install Windows 7
Reinstall all your files
Reinstall all the programs you want to use.
These four steps take time, skills, techniques and Windows Easy Transfer can help. However, if you are not comfortable with this process, please consider having the installation carried out by a local service provider.

I have a machine that came from Dell with an OEM of Windows Vista license and was demoted to XP and given a valid XP key. The machine has been turned on and updated normally with this key. Due to viruses and malware, the owner of machines wants to perform a new installation of XP. I have Windows Vista Business key and the key XP Pro that was published during the downgrade. Trying to install XP Pro I get to the point of activation, and the key is rejected. When you try to call and explain the situation, I am sent to the support tech then asked to pay for support, as they cannot help me. I do not pay for support when all I want to do is accept a XP key that was obtained legally through Microsoft downgrade policy. Hardware wise, nothing has changed in the machine, why is rejected the XP key, which was published by Microsoft? Thanks for any thoughts on this.
If Dell provides you with downgrade XP Dell support is required to provide support.
Never be afraid to ask. This forum has some of the best people in the world to help.

Window vista business 32 bit auto update not install SP1
I have Window vista business 32 bit on Sony Vaio laptop. My automatic update of the window is on, a lot of updates were installed, I can't find the SP1. I checked the updates, saw "the view update history" but can't find SP1. Basic information system shows no service pack. 'Winver' shows Version 6.0 (6000 building). All other window updates have been installed except "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express edition service pack 3 (KB955706) who is still unable to install, do not know for what reason." I guess that there is no link between the failed SQL and SP1. It is after a complete reinstall of Vista 3-4 days back.
Prior to the relocation is in that the original version, Vista SP1 was installed automatically by the Update window.
I wonder if SP1 is already installed, but is not displayed or should I download and install it manually.goyalvimal
Thank you. I was able to install SP1 and SP2 after the changes and the process you described.
Thank you very much. goyalvimal -
If I downgraded from Vista to XP Pro business, can I go back to Vista Business later?
I bought 11 of these machines in early 2008. They are machines HP DC5800 comes with Vista business with the ability to go back to XP Pro. I was not sure about Vista yet again on my work network so I spent in them. Now that has been support for XP until 2014 and Vista has improved with the SP1, I expect these machines to upgrade to Vista now that I have Windows Vista Business OEM product keys.
Am I allowed to upgrade to Vista with OEM product key I have?

Am I allowed to upgrade to Vista with OEM product key I have?
You should have a product key for Windows Vista. Yes, you can use Windows VIsta Business because it is what came with the machine and is probably on the CoA sticker on the unit itself. You have also bought the right to downgrade to Windows XP. You can use an operating system on these machines and switch back if necessary. What I can't say is whteher or not will require a clean install, because it is OEM software. (Vista to XP - clean install only... OEM XP to Vista OEM, I don't remember.)
But I think I should comment on a few things...
You mentioned Windows Vista SP1? (Released 2008-03-18). Given that Windows Vista SP2 is now (aired on 25/05/2009), you are not just back - you are far behind. Probably more than a hundred patches AFTER SP2 as well.
Personally - for a company (or personal) - I switch to Vista and get Windows 7. However, this would cost money. Given that you are still an 11 year old operating system now and considering just the upgrade to an operating system almost 6 years now, on the edge of another new OS coming out in a few months - put two OSes still behind the curve... This probably isn't something you / your company is ready to do. Maybe because the software that you have does not work on a modern operating system?
-These PCs you have, they have Celeron processors. You're probably better from a performance perspective - without spending money - not even their upgrade to Windows Vista. Maybe if you have 3 + GB of memory in each...?
You can watch the lifecycle for Vista Business too:
http://support.Microsoft.com/lifecycle/search/default.aspx?sort=PN&Alpha=Vista+Business&filter=FilterNOand
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/products/lifecycle
You are already in the cycle of extended support for Windows Vista, just as you are for Windows XP.
April 8, 2014 is the end of extended support (no more patches for Windows XP) and April 11, 2017 for Windows Vista. Yes - 3 years - but these machines (hardware) have been at the end of life for a while. especially if they have processors celeron as the web page for the given model.
