• I want to install a second hard drive in my laptop (mSata SSD), so do I create a system dual boot with the same license Windows on each disc.

  Original title: Dual Boot Laptop

  I want to install a second hard drive in my laptop (mSata SSD), I have two programs to install that "do not receive the", so I can create a system dual boot with the same license Windows on each disc. I can run only one at a time, and it's the same pc/laptop.

  No, you can't, a second facility would be like installing on a second computer, you will need to purchase a second license.

• Windows and Mac licenses with the same license?

  So I'm going to buy a new macbook Pro soon, and I want to get adobe CS4 Web Premium - student version. I read that you can install Adobe software on 2 different machines, as long as they are yours.

  Here's my question. My computer at home is a very powerful quadcore maching running Vista. If I buy the Mac of CS4 version, I'll be able to somehow (legally) get the windows version and use the same product key on my PC at home?

  Unfortunately not. You can have the Mac or Windows version, but not the two with the same license. Two machine parts: two personal machines that run the version you have.

  You can exchange one for the other rather little cost, but you must destroy the version that you do not use.

• Cost of upgrading Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials

  I recently purchased Windows Server 2012 Essentials for use as a small home server.  I have not yet installed the software yet since Server 2012 R2 Essentials will be published shortly.  I do agree with Microsoft Software Assurance (SA) because it is unaffordable for my use case.

  This news post tackles the new R2 software costs:
  http://www.ZDNet.com/Microsoft-ups-price-on-Windows-Server-2012-R2-Datacenter-by-28-percent-7000019168/

  Is it really true that there will be absolutely no discount 2012 Essentials to the 2012 R2 Essentials Server server upgrade?  In other words, if I want to use R2, I lost only $425 on the previous version?

  I'm perfectly willing to pay for the new features, but if this is actually true, it probably is the straw that will break all the time about my relationship with Microsoft.  First Windows 8, forcing me to Microsoft of viscerally uncomfortable mold UI 'Modern' (I went back to Windows 7 like everyone else), then Windows 8.1 that does nothing to address my concerns and now the news that the piece remaining of the Microsoft software that is actually good is unaffordable - it's just too.

  I sincerely hope that this information is incorrect, and there will be a path to a reasonable level for customers like me who cannot afford SA and cannot afford another $500 on the server software.  Honestly, if this is the case I will consider seriously to switch to Linux.

  Please tell me that there was a mistake.  I hope that we are not at an impasse in our 30-year relationship, Microsoft...

  (Apparently there is no category for the Windows Server in the Microsoft community (why?), so I'm posting here in the hope to get a response.

• Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter: Activate the virtual machines on a host KVM

  Hello

  I bought four licenses for sale at retail of Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter. With the license of data center, I have the right to install a number of Windows Server R2 instances unmlimited 2012 on the physical machine with the associated license.

  The question now is: How can I activate Windows in virtual machines?

  As virtualization host, I use KVM, AVMA is not possible. I need a KMS host key to set up a KMS host. I tried to use my product key for the retail license but the VMAT does not accept the key, because it's a KMS - no key. Where should I paste my product key for the KMS host key?

  Kind regards

• Remote access Windows Server 2012 through internet with desktop connection

  Summer messing about with it for days and don't get no love.

  Try to connect with Windows 7 Ultimate edition to Windows Server 2012 Data Center version from outside my home network, Starbucks or McDonald's or my server at home.

  Tried all these steps found in this promising and useful article:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/allow-remote-desktop-connections-from-outside-your-home-network

  1. Allow connections to the computer you want to access remotely. DONE - ADDED to THE SERVER AND NON-ADMIN ACCOUNT to RDP GROUP of ROLES, using network level authentication. Connection of Win 7, so this method of authentication should not be a problem, I assume.

  2. Make sure that remote desktop is able to communicate through your firewall. DONE - FOR BOTH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE RULE.

  3. Find the IP address of the computer on your home network you want to connect. MADE - by using the ipconfig/all command

  4. Open your router configuration screen and worms forward port 3389 for TCP IP address of the destination computer. DONE - NOT TCP/UDP but TCP only, internal and external port goes. Note: The use of a booster signal wifi at the end of the House, it is a problem that requires additional configuration? I don't think he has an ip address or acts as a router. But in desperation I can try unplugging then again head the local Starbucks to try to connect.

  5. Find the IP address of the router so that the remote desktop can be found on the Internet. DONE - using "what is my ip", pretty easy.

  6. Open Remote Desktop connection, and connect. ACTUALLY, I think THAT, IN ENTERING [ip router]: 3389.

  But the result of the message is always the typical:

  (1) remote access to the server is not enabled.

  > But this is not true, that I am capable of the DRC at home on the server machine.

  (2) computer remote is not off.

  > But this is not true, as I just left home 30 minutes and sometimes it's rarely, only restarted.

  (3) the remote computer is not available on the network.

  > Don't know what that means. Of course the remote computer is not on the network, I am on right now. It's on my home network. But I can ping my router ip via cmd, then coming to the outside can be done; through my router, I should be able to access inside my home network port forwarding w. But no love.

  So... what to do, what to do...

  The wifi booster is a problem?

  Connects to the Data Center edition a problem?

  What happens if I uncheck the option ' use authentication NLA, is that the passage of the security risk?

  Any ideas about the configuration I could be missing before giving up and go for VPN or TeamViewer. I would really like to see materialized during all the time that I put in trying to run the DRC.

  Thanks for any input.

• Can upgrade to ColdFusion 9 to 11 Enterprise edition, I use the same license key?

  We will be upgrading to ColdFusion 9 Enterprise edition 11.  Can I use the same license keys or do we need new ones?

  A license key is specific to a particular version. CF9 keys do not work with CF11. You will need new license keys.

• Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials: Adopting the previous name of the unit and backups after reconstruction of the customer

  I have a WSE 2012 R2 domain set up at home and use for client backups. Today, I did a fresh install of Windows 10 on one of the clients, which was previously Windows 8.1. Installation went well, and he is now connected to the domain. However, I am unable to use the previous device name, as there always are in the field. I don't want to remove the old device, I need its backups. How can I use the old name of the computer/device and adopt the previous backups? I don't want to lose the old backups, or have to start backups as a new device. I have need of WSE to see my client computer as the same as the previous.

  Thank you

• RDP Windows Server 2012 r2 print of the VIP

  Hi, I hope you will all understand and can help me with this.

  I have 2 users who has a problem with the printing of the RDP of our server.

  It is with the Windows test page, and the main problem comes from VIP.

  When you print a windows test page show page that he has been put on hold, as well as the VIP, but nothing happens, the local PC, this works.

  When you are connected to the Admin account on the remote server, the user is able to do a test page, and with his letters of claim at VIP, she is able to print.

  We had the latest updates, she was able to print for about an hour, then it stopped working again.

  Two weeks earlier, she had the same problem, I used the compatibility mode to run as administrator and it worked too, but the user was only an impression for about half a day before it stops again.

  She has full admin on the remote server and local administrator on the local computer. It runs Windows 7 Professional

  We have more than 50 users using this server and it is only this user who has this problem, locally, is not part of a domain, but on the server, all users are part of the

  same domain.

  Please can help you with this.

  Thank you

• HP desktop with 32-bit windows 7, can legally move to 64-bit with the same product key?

  Hi support them.

  My scenario here is I have a few systems of HP Office under windows7 32-bit edition (version of windows by default), and now I need to upgrade to 64-bit windows 7 without getting a 64-bit win7 additional license, am I allowed to use the same product key on my 32-bit version to upgrade to 64-bit?

  Hello

  Since this is a check of the product key OEM with HP Support for the media. You already have windows
  Thus, it will be cheap. You can check that your system is running 64-bit at the same time.

• All of a sudden no sound in Windows Media Center, video playback. No problem with the same files in media player

  My windows media center vista has all of a sudden start to turn off randomly and restart by itself, about 3 weeks ago.  Now, he has lost his.  When I'm going through orders, no sound.  Video games, no sound.  I can still get sound for mp3, but not video.  I can play the same video in media player without any problem.  Can anyone help?  I have Vista Ultimate, service Pack2.

  Hi Doramon,

  Welcome to the Windows Vista answers Forum!

  What are the file extensions you are trying to play?

  This could happen because some of the types of files supported by Windows Media Player are not supported by Windows Media Center.

  To check the file types supported by Windows Media Center please visit the below given link:

  Types of files supported by Windows Media Center

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/file-types-supported-by-Windows-Media-Center

  You can also try and run the System File Checker tool. This would be in repair of the system files that may be damaged.

  Scan SFC enforcement procedure:

  1. click on the Start button

  2. on the Start Menu, click all programs followed by accessories

  3. in the menu accessories, right-click on command line option

  4. in the drop-down menu that appears, click the "Run as Administrator" option

  5. If you have the User Account Control (UAC) enabled, you will be asked permission before the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

  6. in the command prompt window, type: sfc/scannow then press enter

  7. a message is displayed to indicate that "the analysis of the system will start.

  8. be patient because the analysis may take some time

  9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue

  10. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.

  11. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

  This would take care of the issue that you are facing.

• ColdFusion CFFTP copy of the file from the remote server and save to a local folder with the same file name

  Is it possible to copy a file from a remote ftp server to a local folder, while retaining the original file name? Please note: the file name on the remote server is not always the same.

  This article from Adobe might be useful.  (I was tempted to use LMGTFY; but I do not have).

• Why, when I try to upgrade to 8.0.1, I still end up with the same version and a message that says "you are not on the latest version of Firefox. Update today to get the best of the Web! » ?

  Yesterday, I tried to switch to 8.0.1 twice. Both times the upgrade process seemed to work. I downloaded the files, clicked on install, he says it's "housekeeping" (removal of the old version?), but in the end, I'm still under the old version even.

  I've updated home on my laptop, no problem.
