• Error7 message about the signature unidentified, the upgrade and installation of iTunes 10.5 for Windows Vista.

  Original title: error upgrading and installation of iTunes 10.5 for Windows 6.

  I tried all kinds of ways to solve this problem, but I can't seem to find a solution. This all started when I tried to update my iTunes to version 10.5. Then came the error message 7 on unidentified signature etc. I could not even run my iTunes more then. I started download iTunes again to repair and it just doesn't work. I don't have problems with the installation of my iTunes for the first time a year ago and upgraded whenever I allow it.

  All other methods I tried to correct the error includes:
  • Uninstall iTunes completely and everything that it supports the programs and files (Quicktime, supporter of Mobile, Hello, Safari etc.)
  • Download Quicktime separately after you have uninstalled it as suggested by other users in some forum.
  • Update the frame Microsot.NET as suggested by the Apple Support site.

  • Manually started the installation of such Windows program suggested by one of the answers on this site:

    a. click the Start button, and then type services.msc in the start search box and press ENTER.
    b. Locate the Windows Installer service.
    c. check that the status is started. If the condition column is empty,
    d. right-click on Windows Installer, and then select start.
    e. If you get error trying to force start the Windows Installer service, then try to change the Startup Type to automatic.
    f. restart the computer.

    I have tried for at least 10 times and I have not yet set and am frustrated. Would be really grateful a solution to this soon.

• The upgrade and installation of Adobe Acrobat

  Hello

  I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional on my PC (part of the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Standard - version upgrade). Although I'm not able to upgrade Adobe CS3 to CS6, I believe that it is possible to update Acrobat 8 Pro to the latest version. Most importantly, I want to install the upgrade Acrobat on a new PC running Windows 7.

  The serial number for my existing Acrobat upgrade version begins with 1118-xxxx, although the registered version of Adobe Creative Suite 3 upgrade begins with a different suffix.

  If I buy the upgrade to Acrobat 8 Pro, told me that I can put the new upgrade drive in my new PC and will be asked my previous serial number (1118-xxxx, etc.). Once this is all going to work on my new PC and I don't have any software on my PC's previous owner. Is this correct?

  Thank you

  Phil

  You are unable to move suite-bundled versions standalones and who. Your serial number does not work. Is a "either / or", not "maybe / perhaps it could work".»» Save yourself the trouble, just get Creative Cloud.

• Question about Vista upgrade and using Vista on my laptop

  My first post so Hello. I'm in North Ireland and just basically competent so keep this in mind if you answer my question below :)

  Need some advice on the Vista program upgrade. I am a resident in the United Kingdom and my laptop is an Equium A100-147. I got got a confirmation online and posted number is + a copy of the receipt of purchase to one address in the Netherlands. Also displayed payment (£16,53) at a different address in the Netherlands.

  I want to know is the disc I receive an 'upgrade' disc or a full version with an option of a 'complete installation', but also an upgrade? Also if I do an upgrade or a full install and decide that Vista is not to my likeing running recovery disks provided with the laptop will return its supplied as original state? It would be XP MCE.

  Vista will have all the necessary drivers for my laptop hardware work or I'm likely to have to install drivers after upgradeing or Vista installation?

  Thanks in advance... John

  For most Windows upgrades are complete windows versions. This means that you can do a clean install. During the new installation the installation program will ask for the old cd and check it. That's all.

  Of course, it is possible to return your laptop in the State of origin with the old recovery disks.

• Can I do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on Vista Ultimate 32-bit upgrade. Installation file will not work. The error is described below.

  The XPS 730 with Intel Q9450 computer yourself running Windows 7 64 bit? The details of performance show that it is capable of 64-bit. When I try to install Windows 7 pro 64-bit upgrade, the installer will not work. I get an error that reads:
  The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows that you are running.
  
  I'm currently running Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Everything that I read on Microsoft and elsewhere says that you can go from Vista 32 bit to an operating system Windows 7 64-bit as long as you do the clean install. I'm that far away since I can't even run the installation.
  Maybe nobody knows what could be the problem?

  Hi Hal K,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Answers.

  If you are currently running a 32-bit version of Windows, you can only perform an upgrade to another 32-bit version of Windows. Similarly, if you run a 64-bit version of Windows, you can perform an upgrade to another 64-bit Windows version.

  If you want to move from a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version of Windows, and vice versa, you will need to back up your files and then perform a custom of the version of Windows you want to install installation.

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?DocName=c00809678&LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&product=18703

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

• Can I upgrade Windows Vista 32-bit to Windows Vista 64 - Bit and preserve everything?

  I have a computer with Windows Vista 32 - Bit OS.  I have also 4 GB of RAM, but as the OS is 32-bit, he acknowledges that 3 out of 4 GB.  So, my question is, can I upgrade to a version 64 bit Vista and preserve files and programs, or what I have to buy a copy of Windows Vista 64-bit?

  Thank you

  Hello.

  No.; You cannot switch from 32-bit to 64-bit.

  It must be done with a new installation of the 64-bit operating system.

  There has never been a way to upgrade.

  You should backup your data, copy it into the 64 bit OS and reinstall all your programs

  Microsoft sells more than Vista.

  And before you buy Windows 7:

  Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

  If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

  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.

• Licensing issue? I need to replace the default motherboard with a 'Detail' education Vista Ultimate Upgrade on top of XP "OEM." Can legitimately transfer my license everywhere and how?

  I am currently a computer on which I already installed XP OEM and upgraded to the edition upgrade Vista Ultimate retailers through the ultimate steal Microsoft.

  [Reminder]

  The problem I have is that I've recently updated my graphics card to a card of Nvidia 7300GS card Nvidia GT240 on which my motherboard was properly assessed. However, due to some unfortunate circumstances (I dunno if it's associated graphics or an electrical surge problem, I suspect the latter as the card is fine) my PCI Express slot is fried! This resulted in the motherboard being unable to start any card in the PCI Express slot and gives a series of BIOS beep error codes. I even dug my old graphics (7300GS) and he was still unable to boot. Accordingly, I need to replace the motherboard for the PCI Express slot works if I use a graphics card.

  [Problem]

  Since the license Vista Retail Upgrade that I use currently is the edition of 'detail', can I simply change my motherboard everything and turn it back on, or is it more complex because it is installed on the high XP OEM that is bound to the default motherboard? What are my options?

  I have to buy another XP OEM license and reinstall everything from scratch? What happens if I didn't reinstall and just changed the motherboard and drivers updated my current installation? Is - is this legitimate?

  As I understand it, the Windows for OEM license allows a person replace a motherboard of 'default' (GA-M55plus-S3G in my case) for a replacement under certain conditions, mainly as for everything. Am I entitled to it? If so, what motherboard would be I can replace by although it is considered an upgrade? I have in mind an ASUS M4A78L-M as it is cheap and comes with connectors female jack audio 8 channels on the backplate was on my old motherboard.

  My main confusion is to know what license applies to me because of the upgrade process, retail of Vista or XP OEM? Upgrades medium I improve my driver's license?

  I would like to solve this problem without canceling my licenst but just don't know how?

  Thank you very much for any help or advice.

  Zemian.

  Hello

  Depends on which edition of Vista you use on Windows 7 edition, you can switch to.

  And as you use 32-bit, you can only switch to Windows 7 32 bit.

  32-bit to 64-bit should be done with a clean install.

  Before purchasing Windows 7, follow these steps:

  Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.
