I have an old number of product key that I would use.

I have an old product key number I use it if I can at the same time I was going to use it, but it took the hospital how can it get fix

The example you give is not a product key.  It's a product ID.  A product ID is simply the string generated by Windows when it is installed and serves a different purpose than you think.  A product ID, it is not what is used to activate Windows.  This requires a chain of 25 characters (five fields of five) that you find on the COA sticker attached to the housing of your computer (or in some newer laptops battery).

  • Buy this CD XP Pro will give me a product key that I can use to authenticate a non-genuine copy of Windows XP?

    My father-in-law has an old PC running Windows XP Pro SP2.  The PC itself is not among the major manufacturers and has had so many bits of kit has changed over the years (HD, motherboard, CD/DVD) that what it says on the tour is more accurate!  Some freelance computer programmer he updated this from Windows 98, and it ran fine until that MS has started running this configuration of authentication, when he discovered that he had a copy of dud (new for him, as he had been charged for a good!)  Obviously, he'd make his valid on the MS site copy, but that's all an expensive route - his PC is less value that they would him deducted, and it is shared as to whether it's bin and buy a new computer... but since he does whatever he wants, and it would be embarrassing to share, he would prefer just to fix this.

    I came across this on Ebay, which seems to offer a play version of XP Pro, for a price considerably lower than MS would charge him.

    Is it possible to make its valid copy of XP thanks to this road without HAVING to re - install using the new disc?  I ask because, despite read a lot of entries here, I still don't know fully the implications of retail vs OEM drives, and indeed, I've seen a few rows erupted between experts on the Board about how it's important.  And if it works in principle, it is important that the drive for sale contains the SP3 and it is still on SP2 (because he can't use WIndows Update because it has not got a genuine copy!)?

    Hoping you can help.

  • Number and product key Office 2007

    Hey I bought a Toshiba P300/P300D series and having a bit of trouble setting up.
    Basically, I started to write a story on Microsoft Word 2007 and he often drew my attention to the fact that I have to put in a number of product key.

    So all the time I used it on an experimental basis and non-commercial. I find finially the 25 product key numbers, on the bottom of the laptop, but it is not valid.
    Really confused and frustrated as the trial expires on 31 October and I could lose my job.

    The fact I havn't registered my laptop have anything to do with it?

    That you have located on the underside is the key of Vista and has nothing to do with Office 2007.

    What you have is the trial version, and if you want to use it without limitation, you must purchase this product. This means that you need the right key activations. You can buy it online.

    All that s!

  • Can I use a number of product key finder instead of the number on the sticker to reinstall windows vista Home premium?

    The sticker on the bottom of the laptop is half faded way so I don't have the original full product key number, the one I have from a product keys finder is different of course it will still work when you perform a full system restore?

    If your Vista is pre-installed when you purchased your computer, you have an OEM version. The only correct product key for your computer is attached to your computer.

    The game of product key that you got through the software 'key finder' will NOT work for you.

    Contact the manufacturer of your computer. Ask what follows...

    1. a set of recovery disks. The cost is minimal, and the money will be well spent. You can use the set to restore your computer to factory State.

    2. ask to talk to a technician. Ask technology to teach you how to access your recovery Partition and use it to make the recovery of the system. They installed the recovery partition, not Microsoft. They know exactly how to use it.

    The advice above do not require using the product key.

    If you do not have your product key, you have serious problems.

    It is on a sticker on the case of the computer, or packaging and corresponds to 25 numbers arranged in 5 groups of 5 digits.

    As you reinstalled Vista, and it is not enabled, we can not help you recover from your operating system running and active.

    Contact the manufacturer of the computer.

    See you soon.

    I recently bought a Macbook Pro and can not download my Photoshop CS6 extended.  I have a serial number and product code the product disc, but, but still am not able to download my product.  All the instructions say "double-click install.app" but this seems to be a non-existent option on my computer.  I even bought a drive USB superdrive for the sole reason to put in my product directly drive download and it does not work either.

    I also tried to install directly from the site Web Adobe - my serial code was denied, but I only used it on my old laptop, so it is supposed to work again.

    It seems equally clear that Adobe did the download of older products as difficult as possible for past clients.  This is ridiculous. I spent hours trying to get this to work and have gotten nowhere.  Does anyone have advice for me?

    It is not known if you encounter a problem downloading or installation problem, but it looks to be an installation problem.

  • If I still have the box lost Windows product key

    I was wondering if their was a way to recover my product key? I still have the box of the product key came and there bar codes and the Windows print on the box. And the computer I had it on his hard drive went rites

    What happened to the insertion of the product key?

    You have pictures of backup of the previous operating system, or the hard drive is accessible to all to read the data off of it, i.e., enslavement it to another PC or using a boot disk?

    If this isn't the case, then call Global Customer Service to see if they can trace your product key with the identifiers that remain on the packaging.  This can depend on the ingenuity of the agent, so if necessary I called several times to see if you get one that is capable (a strategy to get what you need any support), and required still ask a supervisor.  Be polite and encouraging.

  • Product key is already in use - activation of a copy on a new computer.

    Recently, I bought a computer from a big brand. I installed a legitimate copy of Windows Vista Edition Family Premium on it which came with my dads computer, also bought the same brand. The installed fine print, on more than one occasion and has been also validated successfully on each installation. The same disc has been used before that to install and activate a copy of Windows on my dads computer.

    However, my computer broke and after much hassl, he was returned to the company and I am waiting for a refund. I formatted the computer off until it is, including the installed copy of Vista.

    Now, I bought a new computer and installed the same copy of Vista on it. Once again no problems with installation.

    When I came to activate Windows online I met with the message that the product key is already in use. Of searching this forum I found that I was able to activate the copy by phone and so called, followed the instructions and was told that I could not activate this copy that was only to use a computer.

    How can I now go to the activation of the copy that I have on my new computer? If I was told it correctly and it can be installed on a computer, then how is it that a second facility was made and activated on my old and now returned computer?

    Any help would be valuable.
