  These are special cables, but they are not expensive.

• I have Adobe Premier Pro version 1.5.1 and want to upgrade to the latest version.

  I have a dobe Premier Pro version 1.5.1 and want to upgrade to the latest version.  Can you please tell me how I can do this without having to pay for a new version I already paid once for the version I have?

  Premiere Pro 1.5.1 was released in March 2005. It is much too old to be eligible for an upgrade.

  There have been 5 updated major and 8 years of development since then.

  The current version is the CS6, and only those who own CS5 or CS5.5 is entitled to upgrade.

• Have a version Greek Windows 7 and want to upgrade to the English version.

  I have the Greek version of Windows 7 (home premium) set up on my computer and want to switch to the English (United States) version.  How can I do?

  You will need to borrow an upgrade of the sale retail English Windows 7 Home Premium or full version CD-ROM or an OEM of a family member or friend system integrator and use it with your COA product key to reinstall and reactivate Windows:

  http://techingiteasy.WordPress.com/2012/04/13/how-to-activate-Windows-7-OEM-license-using-a-retail-disc/

  If you have a retail copy of Windows 7 Home Premium, you can try to get a version of English language by using the product key;

  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery

  Another option, if you do a factory reset, you should give the possibility to choose your language to English:

  New computers that come pre-installed with Windows often have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

  This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

  For Dell, press F8 on the keyboard until the Advanced Boot Options menu appears on the screen.

  For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

  For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

  For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

  For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

  For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

  Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

  Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

• I have a purchased copy of CS3 for Mac and want to upgrade to CS5 (I heard it was an upgrade option). Should what version of CS5 I download the upgrade? This is the full version of CS3 and the product key is available.

  I want to upgrade my version of the suite CS3 for Mac CS5. I heard that it was an offer of upgrade that I have an official version of the CS3 with product key. I was wondering what version of CS5 should I download and would cost how much the upgrade? It's as simple as download a trial version of the suite CS5, tapping my CS3 product key to receive the upgrade reduces and the discount even exist? Are there now that any other upgrade offers? I don't want to upgrade to CC.

  Adobe has only sell the latest version of the Creative Suite, which is CS6, so you can't buy CS5 more. Upgrades are also only available to CS6 CS5 so that CS3 would not benefit anyway.

  I'm afraid you're out of luck.

• I have a Lenovo IdeaPad P500 running Windows 8, and my battery is 0% charged. When I plug it in, it says "plugged and not charging."

  Help, please! When I use my computer, it must be connected as the battery stays on 0% fees. When I plug it, I pass my mouse over the icon in the taskbar that shows me the battery power, it is said "plugged and no charging current" and displays a battery that has 0% fees. When I unplug the computer, it turns off INSTANTLY, and I need to plug in again to use it. Before that, I lived lack of extreme battery life, and it would last from 5 minutes to 30 seconds. I ordered a new battery, but it does not come for a few days, and I want to be able to bring my laptop with me.

  I have a same problem too. My battery shows 18% charged all the time. Even when it is plugged.

  And as soon as I take the plug it shuts. My battery info shows like that.

  Battery information: battery

  ID of the battery	41167LENOVO PABAS0241231

  Hi mukeshbhakta

  There is something wrong with the circuit load or battery.

  The full last Charge can be superior to the nominal capacity?

  I would recommend that you check with Lenovo to find how to troubleshoot the charging circuit.

• I have a computer that is running Windows xp and when I push the power button, it automatically restarts

  When I push the power button, it starts up but when I see the Windows xp startup screen complete the restart of the computer around and does exactly the same thing again and again, so I can't use it, please help I need my computer =)

  towelsrawesome,
  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  The first thing I would say is to remove all external devices from your PC (except the mouse and keyboard) and then restart.  If she does not always correctly, then try to start safe mode.  Here is a link that explains the Safe Mode and how to start to it: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222

  Post back with the results of these measures.  Also, let us know if something has changed recently on your system (hardware or software) and give us some details about your system.  Let us know the make\model of pc and which package XP version\service you use.

• So I have an old Alienware PC running XP 32 bit and I want to get Windows 7.

  So I have an old alienware pc running 32 bit XP and I want to get windows 7.    I was watching the upgrade version, but I'm probably going to be upgrading the mother/cpu/ram card when Ivybridge comes out.  I can do this or do I have the full version of 7?

  I recommend buying a genuine 'Full Retail Version' edition of Windows 7.
