• Dead hard reinstall the upgrade

  Our hard drive is dead and I need to reinstall the upgrade Adobe Standard X version but I have no more than the previous version. Any thoughts?

  Hi John,.

  Please download Acrobat X Standard from the link below and use the serial number you have for X.

  Download Adobe Acrobat products. Standard, Pro | DC, XI, X

  As you have purchased Acrobat X Standard as an upgrade for the installation program will ask you a serial number of the previous version when you enter the serial number for Acrobat X Standard.

  On this window, simply enter the serial number of the previous version you own be 7, 8 or 9. You don't need to have the previous version installed on the computer.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you

• HP ENVY 700-210xt: how to reinstall after upgrade windows 10

  I bought a HP ENVY 700 - 210xt delivered with Windows 8.1 and included a recovery for the same partition.  At one point last year, I used the free update of Microsoft to take the system up to 10 Windows.  As far as I know, it has no effect on the recovery partition.  Now, I met a hard drive problem, where the system will not start or recover.  My hypothesis is that I need to reinstall from scratch, but I have some problems.

  • If I order the HP recovery discs, they will be for Windows 8.1, but not my upgrade to Windows 10 invalidated the original license key?
  • If I get somehow 8.1 Windows reinstalled with the original key, can I still the free update me for Windows 10 of Microsoft?  I guess that their records show that I've already updated.
  • If I can't get this path to work, is there a direct way to return to Windows 10?  As part of the upgrade, I've never seen a new license key, but maybe it was and I never saw him.

  Thanks for any help!

  You need a support SSD (like this) so he can climb properly.  I also was called to tie an SSD in the case from time to time... since it has no moving parts and is not fragile like hard drives disk.

  right-clisk top and select run as administrator.

  At the prompt, type

• Reinstall Vista upgrade Express of Business to ultimate after hard drive crash

  When I bought my first computer at Dell, it had Windows Vista Business installed on the computer.  Shortly after the purchase, I bought an upgrade on Amazon.com to upgrade to Vista Ultimate.  I remember that when I upgraded, a file has been downloaded and executed on the computer that has provided the additional functionality of Vista Ultimate.  The file is stored in my service digital locker.  I think I have the product key that was used after the upgrade (it of in my notes, but does not match the original product code which is on the side of my computer).  In any case, the hard drive crashed and I reinstalled windows vista professional, on the recovery provided by Dell CD.  However, I can't seem to find a way to present a new request the ultimate improvement to the computer (it only gives me vista professional).  Now that the digital locker is gone, I can't recover this file and emails informing her service digital locker went went to an old email account I'm not "check very often (I located the email I was trying to research on mine)."

  Can someone provide me with instructions on how to apply a full new vista computer?  If I think I have the product key for the upgrade, is it possible for this punch in and extract the upgrade feature?  Thanks in advance!

• How to reinstall the upgrade of Windows 7 after replacing the hard drive

  I have a few problems and decided after many hours of nowhere to replace my hard drive, I am running Win7 installed via an upgrade disk, because it doesn't seem to be a startup disk (I want to run repair to try to recover the missing files / corrupted etc.) what I need to install Vista first and then use the upgrade disk?

  There are likely to be problems with activation etc as in the past, that a new hard drive has been regarded as the same license is installed on a different machine?

  * original title - hard drive replacement, Q on installation of Windows

  Thanks for both answers, but as I could not reinstall Vista due to the lack of drive & key - I put my system together myself have so do not the sticker supplied with the systems, pre-built, I moved twice since the departure of Vista installation, the disk may or may not be somewhere in this House.

  My solution was to take the opportunity to upgrade my CPU and add that extra RAM so bought a win7 disc at the same time (which I'll keep somewhere safe). Yes, I've probably lost money by doing it this way, but it's my money to waste.

  The end result is that the PC works well which is what matters in the end for me.

  Thanks again for the responses.

  Recently, my hard drive crashed and could be damaged, because I can not install anything on this subject.

  I still have the CD of Windows XP Professional that has been used to upgrade to Windows 7.
  So, if I buy a new hard drive and install XP first and then upgrade to windows 7. I'll be able to
  to do this without side windows activation problems.
  Or do I have to buy a new drive for windows?
  PS: Is it important that it is the version of Windows 7 professional student discount?
  Thank you.

  If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

  How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

  Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

  Click Install now

  Accept the license agreement

  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Click on drive Options

  Select the disc/s click on Delete

  Click new

  Click on apply

  Click OK

  Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

  Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

  When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

  Click on properties

  Scroll down to the Windows Activation

  Click the link x days before activation.

  Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

  Enter the product key

  Click next

  Select the Activation of the phone

  Click Next when you enter your key page

  Select your country

  Click Next, call the number listed

  Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

  Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

  They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

  Click next to complete the activation.

  However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

  15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

  So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

• Reinstall the upgrade to Adobe Pro XI

  My hard drive has failed, so I need to reinstall Pro XI, an upgrade of Standard 9, that I bought for a single price.  I have the correct keys for both products. I downloaded Pro XI, enter the activation key, which he accepted.  However, in order to open Pro XI, the program takes me to a "Serial number upgrade" screen.  The drop is looking for the previous version - without doubt Standard 9 - validating the upgrade.  As a result, thinking that I must begin with 9 Standard, I deleted Pro XI, in charge of 9 Standard, but it does not recognize the activation key for this version.  I'm unable to move forward.  What should I do?

  When you install acrobat xi Setup detects a serial number update.  It will then search for a product calling it (for example, acrobat std 9), there is failure to find that you will be able to select the product in a drop-down list.  You will then be asked to enter the serial number of the eligible product (ie, acrobat std 9).

  If you enter the correct number to the correct installation of the xi ends.

• Reinstall the upgrade.

  I got Photoshop CS5 a CS update.  My computer crashed, I need to reinstall CS5. Reading the forums, I discovered that I could download CS2 because the activation server is down for CS and CS2. I did and it is installed. However, CS5 will not install as it is said that the serial number for the CS2 is not a qualifying product. What can I do?

  Chances are that you need to use the serial number of your purchase of CS.  If you are unable to work things out you must contact Adobe Support by chat or phone when you have the serial number and activation problems.

  Here are some links to help get in touch:

  PS - you diod not need to install CS/CS2 to install CS5.  You need only the number of series.

• Can not reinstall the upgrade of MS CS6 with CS4 MS series

  My organization purchased upgrade CS6 Master Suite in which we used a serial number CS4 Master Suite we had owned in December of 2012. The installation was very good. I'm now doing a clean install of a new SSD volume and it is is not letting me use the serial number CS4 MS, saying: this isn't a product calling. I thought maybe it was because I had always installed on another volume, so I disabled that settle, but I still got the same message.

  Anyone else having this problem?

  No, the CS4 was purchased in 12/2009, so it has nothing to do with the window of upgrade of last year. Or at least it shouldn't be!

  I was talking about buying CS6 not CS4 - and if the CS6 Installer got his calendar and upgrade windows mixed up. But forget this thought. A Kipper irrelevant.

  Simply contact Adobe since the user forums can help you with serial number problems.
