(Redirected) Another owner of mixed open-box Best Buy who require assistance to transfer
A few months ago, I bought a laptop from Best Buy. It was a mixed open-box item that was apparently recorded by the former owner.
Some of the equipment is faulty, so I need support, but cannot get help because I'm not the owner.
After I bought it, I called and spoke with a representative who said that she has transferred the property, but that apparently isn't the case. Phone representatives I spoke this week can help me because I do not know the info from the original owner, that Best Buy won't give me (understandably).
They said that I could fill the form of ownership, I did but was rejected and said that I was not allowed to answer.
Can someone who has solved this problem help out me? It is so incredibly frustrating that there is no better way to do it. I have the laptop in my possession and I have a receipt.

I don't see pictures (jpeg images) to the owner/documents without opening each file individually. I just see the same image of a mountain and the Lake for each file. When I look in windows XP, the JPEGs under 'my computer' and select 'film' or the 'miniature' I can see the image. Why can I not see the image using Vista?

? You can use a boxed version of lightroom bought at best buy
I bought lightroom from Best Buy... he had the CD in there and I said 'I need the download version because I don't have a CD-Rom.' and they said 'don't worry, download instructions are also included. However, I don't think it's true now that I opened the box. Any ideas on how to operate the box version? Or return to the store and buy online?
Thank you!

I bought Photoshop elements & elements of Prime Minister to Best Buy 2 years. Finally opened and I tried to get the serial number online by using the identity card, but said website code is not valid. Called Best Buy, they said that adobe should have canceled activation because it has not been installed in a timely. How can I get a serial number for installation?

Work your way through this document in the end, step by step, and finally try to start a chat session. I hope that Adobe will straighten this out for you.

I have Acrobat 9 on a PC, I no longer use. I want to download and reinstall on another PC. What is the best way to do it?
Hi Chaos2015,
Could you specify if you have Acrobat 9 Pro or Standard version.
You must turn off Acrobat from the old machine and then install on the new of a CD/DVD and then activate with the same serial key.
If you don't have installation media, you can download the Pro version of the below mentioned link:
Download Acrobat products | 9, 8
Please note that you can activate the software on the computers of two maximum. For example: your office at work and laptop at home
Kind regards

W Explorer opens always best in CS6
I have CS6 running W7 64-bit. For some reason any, when I open the WE of in CS6 to select a file to work, US opens always best. I think it is new on my system. Is it possible to get it back to open non-optimized, please? Same problem occurs when I opened US in CS4, but not in PE11. Google search has not produced an answer yet. My screen is large and research on the whole of it is a chore.
Thank you.

Cannot open the Lightroom Catalog because another application already is open.
I hard a message that another application has the open catalog, but I have no idea what's open. Any ideas on how to understand what program it was open?
When Lightroom has an open catalog it creates a temporary file next to the catalog file, which has the same name with an extension .lock. By default, the files are located as shown in the attached screenshot.
If Lightroom is not normally closed the .lock file will remain in place and prevent Lightroom opening of the catalog said.
With Lightroom closed go to the subfolder of Lightroom, and if there is a file with the name of .lock extension remove the file, and then try and open Lightroom.

Should I bring my HP desktop computer new back to Best Buy?
I recently bought a HP Pavilion Desktop 500-164 nodel. It came with the Windows 8.0 operating system. He also had a Norton Product on the disk. I have been using Norton for many years and have several licensed copies. After turning on my new PC, I went to activate Norton. I got a message saying that Norton is not compatible with Windows 8.0. I was shocked... Why HP factory install this software if it is not compatible with the operating system? I did some research and discovered that Norton will run if I update the OS to 8.1. I did, and Norton is running.
So far so good... Until...
I find now that I have occasional difficulties, connection to the internet. I have located the problem to my new office. All other PCs in my house to connect without a problem. I noticed a message in "HP Support Assistant. I check it out and asked to have my new Desktop checked to see if HP has tested my office with Win. 8.1, while, incompatible drivers might cause problems with the connection to the internet. (hmmmmm... looks like my problem)
I have run the check only to find that HP has NOT certified of my desktop with Win 8.1. Therefore, I can not receive updated which are compatible with my system drivers. (my system has updated a few times since I turned it on) For the most part, my system over time, could seriously errode and become unusable.
It's amazing. I buy a system with preinstalled software that are not compatible and cannot now be updated for more recent versions of the operating system without serious consequences. Are there plans to certify this combination to Win 8.1 desktop computers? HP is just going to let this Destop like that?
Can anyone provide some assistance? Or, should I return this box at Best Buy and replace it with a Dell or IBM product?
Appreciate all the thoughts, comments and advice.
BTW, I am an HP retiree, I only use HP products. I'm quite surprised HP would put an office there unsupported.
Please tell me I'm wrong to understand something? ;-)
Bob
Thank you much for Bill's response. I really appreciate it. Yes, Norton which was incompatible with Win 8.0 was the version that has been preinstalled on the hard drive. I opened one that was preinstalled and got the error message. Sorry I can't tell you exactly what message I got, it has been a while. In essence, the message said that Norton is incompatible with Wiin 8.0. Then, I went on this forum and learned that I would need to udate to 8.1 to run Norton I did. It has worked OK at this time.
I see the same exact material that my PC configuration is now shipped with Win 8.1. Once I realized I felt much better. My PC is a 500-164. The PC being bundled with 8.1 is 500-214.
Thanks a lot for the next upward. Yet once again, I really appreciate it!

Purchase Photoshop elements 13 Best Buy and redemption of the code does not generate serial number
So I buy Adobe Photoshop elements 13 Best Buy and follow the directions on the package to get a serial number, so I can install the application. I get an oops message that my code is not valid. Kind of strange see the package never been opened before. I guess I bought a boat at Adobe anchor. I knew that I went with the wrong product. Me once shame on you, screw me twice shame on me. It goes in the trash, and I will NEVER buy another Adobe product again. Adobe sucks!
