I have a legitimate copy of windows in my hand with 2 CD case then why must I activate the same windows product, I had on my computer for 2 years. First of all I did not change any material in my computer so you can't use that excuse. I bought so many windows products since windows 3.1 to windows 98 for the Millennium of the window, xp home and professional and vista ultimate and now you say I have to buy a new copy. I can't believe this. I'm so angry. Go ahead and treat me like that. Just because you have the money and have the market you don't think I'm capable of anything, it's fraud and ripping off a consumer and you know. You have no reason for me to activate my windows again. It's like the 3 times on the same computer ruined. I does not change a single piece of hardware, and you want to deny my activation. all I know is that better, solve you the problem. It's so bad. If I lose my personal accounts and subscriptions I pay online because my windows is not working properly you're going to pay for them.
original title: what's your problem guys.According to the statement of 'Authentic' is concerned, be aware that any system that has not been activated (i.e. within the "grace period" will show as authentic except another problem.
You should also check that the word "Authorized" appears in the 'License' tab, under the license status.

I just got a call from windows saying pirates were trying to get access to my computer and asked me to go to the run menu and type eventvwr and go to security and count the red Xs and yellow triangles, after that I said I was under 18, they told me to wait for their phone call. They also said that they were in England in the Department in charge of piracy (not the exact words), I was wondering if it was a scam because (don't not to sound racists but) they sounded to the East Indies and I read on some other getting calls of the people of the East Indies and it didn't sound like a normal call center because there was a lot of noise in the background it all seemed a bit suspicious to me.
Fake phone calls to technical support
Calls unrequested telephone of this nature are almost always a common scam. Do not let them give any info, do not give access to your PC, not give them all the money and do not go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment.
Please see:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/security/online-privacy/msname.aspx .
Microsoft issues never not solicited for phone calls of support or security.
These types of callers can use completely fictitious names or bogusly claim to be of real companies other than Microsoft as well.

Clean install of Windows Vista Edition family
Due to a Virus, I had to perform a cold install of Windows Vista Edition family. After completion and activation of the software, I received a message that my product is already in use. It was a clean install on the same computer that has more than 3 years.
Hello Steveowe,
It's normal. To activate it, you use telephone activation. It's free in most countries. See this link from my Web site: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/product_key_already_in_use.htm
This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

How can I get Firefox 9.0.1 to remember form data? I use Windows XP. Yes, I already looked under tools/options/privacy and don't see anything useful. I don't see that 'monitoring' and 'bar' on the Privacy tab. The previous version I was using shape data stored without any problem. I can't get 9.0.1 to remind OF THE form data.
'Re missing you the section history of this window. See the screenshot I posted below.
Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.
A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.
(If you use it, switch to the default theme).- You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.
Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.
If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.
http://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themesWhen find you what is causing that, please let us know. It might help others who have this problem.

I can't install my AD018640672 order number because you ask for the previous issue. Adobe came with my computer I don't have that. Can you help me!
We could certainly help you.
If she asks for the previous version number, then you could acquire a version upgrade.
You must purchase the full Acrobat version so that it can be installed and activated with the serial key.
Hope that helps.

I had to update my windows computer and you can no longer open Photoshop cs2. trying to find help with this new system is not easy to use to put it kindly. I downloaded the program and don't have the available key. I tried to sign in but where.
For Photoshop CS2 activation has been reprocessed, so your original drive and the serial number does not work.
As an owner of CS2, Adobe has a copy without activation and serial number, to which you are entitled.
The serial number is to the right of the download link for Windows. You'll need this one, not your old number.
Get them here: download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products

Can help you, I get access denied you do not have enough words to activate power
I am trying to install a software, but I get this message in Admin: access denied! You don't have enough power words to activate this function.
The message continues to appear over and over again and finally goes and does to install the software. It is on a PC HP mini.
LMV,
I hope that you do not have too much of your own data personal on the computer yet, because if you used I would suggest that you reinstall the operating system to solve these problems.
Go to http://partsurfer.hp.com and enter your name/product number in the search field. The results that arise should include a restore CD that you can order to perform the reinstallation. Yet once, please make sure to save any personal data that you have put on the computer before attempting this.

My pro iPad connects to the WIFI, but loses connectivity to drops in use. My other IOS devices (iPhone, macbook, etc.) do not have this problem. Ideas to solve?
Hello BrooklynWM!
I definitely want my iPad to stay connected to the Wi - Fi connection while I use it. Thanks for posting that other iOS and OS X devices have no problem with the connectivity dropping. We can try a few things.
Would first go through the steps listed in this article: If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch connects to a Wi-Fi - Apple Support Network
Then if it does not help, you can check network settings with this: recommended for the WiFi routers and access - points Apple supported
After trying those, if you still see the drop connectivity, make sure the iPad Pro is updated with iOS 9.3.2 and check to see if the connection when you are in a certain place, time, or one event happening elsewhere in the House.
Best regards.
