Perennial and Win 7 installed upgrading to win8
I'm building a new PC and I am determined to Win 7 Home premium on it. I'm starting with a 1 to SATA HD, but I want to move to an SSD later. MY question is, I have to buy a new copy of win7 to install on it?
Change the storage device (SSD HARD drive) does not require that you buy a new license of Windows 7, you can use the same license and reactivate by phone if necessary.
Purchasing Windows 7 today will not entitle you to a free upgrade to Windows 8. You can buy Windows 8 If you want to run on your computer. You can purchase an upgrade to Windows 8 Pro for $39.99 from 26 October 2012.

Disable the Win 7 Ultimate Upgrade before installing on another computer?
Hello
I have a HP Pavilion dv5 the cam, e with Win 7 Home Premium. I'm walking the OS for Win 7 Ulitimate.
Now, I'll sell the dv5 and want to install the Win 7 Ultimate Upgrade on another computer. I need to disable the Win 7 Ultimate license upgrade, or do I just restore the dv5 back to factory condition using the recovery disk.
And then just install the Win 7 Ultimate Upgrade on another computer?
You are the very welcome, Mike.
If you obtained a retail product key, you should be able to install W7 Ultimate on any other PC.
If you don't have a Microsoft account or a link where you can download W7 Ultimate once again, then you can get it here...
2147483647 English Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 X 17 - 59465.iso of http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/Win/X17-59465.ISO
Then use this tool to transfer the ISO to a flash USB 4 GB or DVD drive.
The tool also performs the bootable media.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
Make sure that the size of the ISO file you get is that the download site indicated that it was.
Sometimes the download says "complete", but it wasn't and you end up with a partial file, which will not work.

I bought Windows Vista Home Premium and got a free upgrade to Windows 7, which I have installed on Computer1. Can I install Vista on a second computer computer2 and still be legal?
Is same question with versions of Microsoft office, if I have multiple versions allowed to install an earlier version on a second computer and stay legal?
No, unfortunately not, when you upgraded to Windows 7 indeed renounce you your right to use Vista. But keep the product key and Vista media where you need to perform a clean installation of Windows 7 again.
For MS Office (according to license as some allow multiple installations) If this older version is not in use you can install it on this computer second no questioned asked.
Never be afraid to ask. This forum has some of the best people in the world to help.

How can I install win 8 and win 7 on the same machine
I am running Win 7 Ultimate and want to install Win 8 Pro as an additional operating system without remove Win 7 and then have the ability to boot to one of the OS.
One possibility would be to run Windows 8 as VM on Windows 7, although it may not give the best experience.
Otherwise you're going to need another partition or another drive to install Windows 8 on. If you're talking about a laptop, then additional disks options are few but for a desktop computer, it is by far the best option.
Provide the original disc is not full shrink the current C: partition to create the ability for Windows 8 must be installed on the empty space is not so difficult, that's exactly what I did with my Acer Touch PC to allow me to test Windows 8 and it worked perfectly (no space for another drive). I could even point Windows 8 at the partition of Windows 7 to search for drivers for the unidentified material, and all have been resolved.

I downloaded and tried to install CS6 on my computer after that machine has been upgraded to Windows 10. I get a message that says "serial number is not for the product." The drop-down list does not contain CS6 Design and Web Premium. What should I do to get loaded and enabled on my computer?
That fall down, and the serial number you provide must identify the previous version that you upgraded because CS6 is an upgraded version in your case.

Hey Stan,
When you update an application CC 2014 2015 CC, you cchoose to remove earlier versions of creative Cloud applications or leave them installed.
If you select the option uninstall earlier versions when you update an application to 2015 CC, you can also reinstall earlier versions at a later date if necessary.
If you have problems to download apps CC, you can also download the CC apps directly from:

If I'm just remember, you need to enter your serial number of photoshop 5.5 when you install the upgrade photoshop version 6.
The number that is on the upgrade to photoshop registration card 6 does not work for the installation of an update to photoshop version 6.

I have PS 4, 5 and 6 is installed on my Macbook Pro and Lightroom 4 and 5. Can I remove PS 4 and 5 and 4 LR? PS 4 is the entire plant and PS 5 and 6 are updated. LR 4 is the complete package with LR upgrade.
I need space!
First of all, let me disabuse you of a misconception: Adobe all upgrades are FULL installers. If you buy upgrades or new versions does not have one iota of difference. Upgrade installation programs do not need to find a previous version installed, they invite you just for the old serial number as well as the old one and they are not based on the old version in the slightest.
Second, the time to uninstall an earlier version is BEFORE upgrading to a newer version. If not, uninstall older versions will mess up with your new installation. There are a gazillion of the files that are named the same and in the same locations as the other.
Your best bet now is to uninstall ALL versions of Photoshop, you have it installed, including the newest one, one by one, and then run the Adobe CS clean-up tool, and then run repair permissions of the Apple desktop utility and finally reinstall the latest version.
The other alternative, if your boot HD is quite large (very questionable in the case of a laptop as a Mac Book), is to leave all the versions on this subject.
Your choice.
