  You use a Windows 7 volume license distribution that uses a MAK product key activation.

  You can try also reactivate by calling Microsoft Volume License Activation Center:

• "The activation server reported that the product key has exceeded its limit of unlocking". Error

  Hello

  I recently changed my motherboard and processor because my old card mother and fried CPU. I had Windows 8 Pro (64-bit) installed earlier, an upgrade to Windows 7 (64-bit). As soon as I started first of all, I got a notification asking me to re - activate my Windows but when I try to activate it with my original key, I get this error: "the activation server reported that the product key has exceeded its limit of unlocking".

  I tried to activate by phone, but instead connect to the automated system, I keep to redirect to voicemail after a few rings. Can someone help me to activate my Windows again? I'm in Karachi, Pakistan.

  The report shows that it is been activated previously, but that the material has changed considerably since the activation - hence the request for reactivation.

  Not too surprising if you traded motherboards. :))

  Telephone activation is definitely the way to go - but it's in the lap of the gods (i.. activation e. operator the MS) as to if they will allow it if the original Win7 installation was an OEM.

  My belief is that they will allow him - of some people hold that they will not :)

• A run the system restore, and now my Adobe Acrobat license has exceeded its limit

  I tried to restore computer because of a corrupted installation and it deleted Adobe Acrobat, since the system restore did not work, I have reinstalled the operating system, corrected and then installed Adobe Acrobat Professional of XI, entered my license and it comes up with amounts excesses of this license. I would just get the license reactivated. Any help would be appreciated. I tried to call and Adobe is closed on weekends, cat I tried but nobody came online in some time so now, try the forums as they are 24/7.

  Thank you-

  Jake

  You need to talk to Adobe, not users on the forums, because only Adobe can reactivate something on their end.   I guess the numbers increase during the work week.

• Windows 7 does not have the activation key - has WORKED in THE PAST

  A year or two ago, I upgraded my computer from Vista to Windows 7. I bought Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade online. The activation key worked exactly as it is supposed to. A few months back, I had a hard drive crash. I had to wipe the hard drive and reinstall Vista then install Windows 7. Once more, everything works great. Key agreed without any problem. Then about a week and a half, I did an upgrade to my computer. New motherboard, CPU and power supply. I installed Vista on another hard disk, loaded the drivers of the new motherboard and CPU, then installed Windows 7. The activation key has been accepted (the same I use all along) and had no problems until tonight. I'm going to be out of town for the weekend, start and I get a window saying that my version of Windows is not registered and enter the activation key. This time IT would BE NPOT ACCEPT THE KEY what is CAME WITH MY INSTALLER DISK. 3 TIMES. What gives? # ! ? The dey was good a week ago and now it isn't? What has changed while I was out of town and my computer was closed. This looks like a problem with Microsovt and Windows 7. How to get Windows 7 activated as if it was 4 days ago?

  Have you tried to restart by phone?

  Activate Windows 7 manually:
  1. click on start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4

  2. press enter on your keyboard

  3. Select your country.
  4. Select the telephone activation option and brace yourself for a real person.

• Installed new HARD drive and activation key has expired

  I have Windows 7 Ultimate on my laptop and my HARD drive just died. I bought a new one and I used a program called Ez Gig to clone my old HDD to my new HARD drive, before it died completely. Now, I get a message "this is not a genuine copy of Windows. He sends me to a Web Macintoshëoperating site and it runs a check and then tells me that my activation key has expired, and the Microsoft Web site wants me to buy another copy! Why is he doing this and how to fix it? Thank you

  Michael

  Your Windows license is related to your hardware. Since you just cloned the BONE but has changed the hardware, the Windows Activation does not recognize your new system. Thus, the solution would be just to reactivate your Windows.

  The phone activation does not just work. You will need to re-enter your product key.

  Click Start, right-click on computer , and select Properties.

  On the Windows Activation section, click on change product key and enter your key.

  If you are using a retail version of Windows, then the key must be with the disk when you buy it.

  If Windows is preinstalled on the laptop, the key lies in a sticker at the bottom of your laptop.

• Reinstalling windows - activation key has expired?

  We bought a desktop dell computer about 1 1/2 to 2 years with pre-installed windows 7 Home premium. He broke, but some parts were always good. We bought a new Acer with preinstalled Windows 8 office which I didn't like. Also, the hard drive of the Dell printer was bigger. The intention was to simply pass on the disks, so Acer would have a bigger disk and Windows 7. It wouldn't boot correctly, so we reinstalled Windows 7 by using a disk image, downloaded from Microsoft and product key that was stuck on the Dell. Finally, we sold the Dell a guy on Craigslist. We had signed up everything except the motherboard, processor and power supply. As we took off the Windows 7 product key sticker. Acer has worked well and never mentioned anything on Windows is not genuine not. He remained off the coast for a few weeks. I turned today and it installs the updates on start up. The login screen normally shows and I connect. The desktop appears in black with 3 lines of text in the corner:

  Windows 7

  Build 7601

  This copy of Windows is not genuine

  There is a window in the middle of the screen that says

  Activate Windows now

  The activation period has expired

  It gives two options:

  Activate now

  Ask me later

  At this stage there is no start bar or the desktop icons as if windows Explorer has not yet begun.

  About 2 to 3 minutes later the paper in his arrives and the start bar and the desktop icons appear. The window "Activate Windows now" disappears also.

  Another window appears which says:

  Update optional delivery does not work

  You may be victim of software counterfeiting.

  I tried not to get my key or whatever it is in fear that it could be a virus.

  What is going on? There may be remnants of the key somewhere on the case of dell outside the sticker? What should I do?

  Reason for the notification: 0xC004F009 (grace period expired).

  As long as you have not used the product key Dell try to activate Windows, well he can't to try anyway:

• W620 Sony has exceeded the limit of power

  I have a Windows 7 hp dv7 brand new with Salvation really care but my w620 sony always seems I think that suck to the top of a lot of power of any of the four usb ports I have on my laptop. The camera itself is in mass storage mode as it is easier to transfer pictures in this way. I tried to take the rechargeable battery on still no luck as it does so. Uh, I tried looking through the menus but no luck either. The first time I plugged in my laptop he brought photos but then later it just won't let me connect :(

  It turns out it was the cable of data accuracy for the digital camera that has kept a malfunction after I have troubleshooted with my data cable from mothers. I just he swapped it for a new brand.
