You cannot use a recovery disk to another PC on this one - he will almost certainly fail to install properly and report as being non-genuine, even if she moved.

I had many problems with the first cc 2014 so I reinstalled it and now it says that I can not open my project because it was recorded on a newer version. Is there something I can do?
Hi Gemma,
It seems that after reinstalling, Premiere Pro no has not been updated to the latest version. Check your application creative cloud for updates. If she says Premiere Pro is up to date, try to update Premiere Pro through help > updates... option in Premiere Pro.
Thank you

I was just trying to download 10 on my computer windows using boot camp assistant. I answered the questions for windows when you need to respond as what kind of language you use and then I messed up on one of the questions. I didn't know how to go back so I just pressed the red x. When I did that he must get off my computer and when it's done I got a black screen and then it says "No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key" I don't know what he meant by no bootable disk and I was hoping that you guys can help me fix.
If stop you your Mac and your power it back up and hold down the Alt/Option key, you see a Windows selection? If so try to select and see if the installation will continue.

I removed my xp hard drive to another computer and now it says I need to 'enable '.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950929/en-us
I removed my xp hard drive to another computer and now it says that I have to 'activate' and when I try, I get a weird response and they all but hang up on me. I used this drive for many years, even the screen shows a picture of my table with flowers in a vase. What is going on? How can I get this problem?Your hard drive, installed on a computer with Windows XP was preinstalled by the computer manufacturer? If this is the case, then you have a "OEM version" of Windows which is linked to the computer first it is installed on and cannot be moved or reinstalled on another computer.
If however you have a "Commercial" of XP version that you bought in a store, then you should be able to activate by phone, be aware that move the drive from one computer to another is more often go to work and XP may have problems (device drivers and other issues). The best solution is a clean installation (after you back up your data files).

My computer have Windows reloaded and now I can't access my e-mail stored previously in Windows Mail. How can I get back them?
You can try to search for *.eml, but if the disk has been formatted first, they will not be there. The files are also hidden, so make sure that you enable the display of hidden files and folders under control panel | Folder options | View. You can also check with those who 'reloaded' of Windows to see if they have backed up your data first.
See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for information on the message to save the data.

I just downloaded windows 7 on my computer and now it says I do not have a card installed, network driver what should I do?
If the computer is running XP or Vista, for example, before installing W7, it may mean that the manufacturer of the PC card or network did not have a driver for W7.
Go to the site of the original manufacture of the PC (brand/model) support and see if they make an adapter for your specific model of W7. If they do download it, to get the right version IE 32 or 64-bit as needed. If the PC manufacturer doesn't provide one, try the website of the company that makes the actual adapter and see if they do.
If you are unable to connect to the internet on this PC, you will need to download the driver on another PC and transfer it through via a USB stick or an SD card.
Is there no driver W7 made for your specific PC and its adapter, then you may need to consider buying a replacement network card and use it.

my computer with windows broken and now my new computer does not have windows, is it possible to get windows on my new computer from my old?
Hello
You tell us what type of license you have.
If the former was preinstalled, NO, you cannot transfer it.
Read this information:
If the laptop came with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key supplied with the laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.
OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) is related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when dies of this machine.
The above applies also to OEM system builders licenses.
License of operating system in detail, that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.
And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.
