Win8 upgrade: my Office 2007 license will be?

Greetings

I'm about to upgrade my computer to Windows 7 to Windows 8. I have all my personal files and stuff saved on an external hard drive and I'm ready to go. The only thing I need to know is if my copy of Office home and Student 2007 will be Windows 8. I use the Office 2013 Preview for months now and I intend to use it when my computer is upgraded, but I want to make sure that I can't buy Office 2007 or 2010 because my old product key no longer works. Office 2013 Preview is amazing and I love it but I have a policy of "better-safe-fort-so-sorry" in the event where the Office 2013 not to work, I want to use my copy of Office 2007 in its place. Thanks for your help.

If you have the installation media, key, and the sticker COST for Office 2007, you can use it in Windows 8...

  • I'm about to buy a new laptop. I have installed the upgrade to Office 2007 some time ago and have the CD, but I don't have the original CD that I used to install Office 2003. How can I install Office 2007 on my new computer with only the upgrade CD?

    I am currently running XP.  I expect that the new laptop has Windows 7.

    Without the original installation media, Microsoft Office 2003, you cannot install a version upgrade of Microsoft Office 2007.  You would need to purchase a version of "Full license" of Office 2007. Carey Frisch

  • After the upgrade from Office 2007 to Ofice 2010 on my Vista, then my computer turns off after being idle for a while.

    After upgrade Office 2007 to Office 2010 on my Vista, then my computer turns off after being idle for a while. When I turn on my computer, I get the splash screen indicating that Windows has finished unexpectedly and I would like to start in safe mode or normally (pluss a couple more choice...).

    Appears not to occur if there is activity going on--as if do me some work or have itunes playing music or I'm just surfing the internet. Curiously, it seems not to happen if I close Internet Explorer and Outlook.

    I shot all automatic updates for Windows Vista (32 bit) and Microsoft Office.

    Hi B Odd Andersen,

    I want to clarify if your computer seems to be sleeping or it completely closed after being idle for a while.

    Method 1: If the computer is in power saving mode, check if you can wake the computer from this State by moving the mouse or pressing any key on the keyboard.

    Method 2: Change the power to another and check to see if the problem persists
    Change, create, or delete a power plan (scheme)

    Method 3: check the logs in event viewer for more information on auto-off down

    Open event viewer

    What are the information in event logs? (Event Viewer)

    Note: For your safety and security, it is not recommended to disable Windows Update.
    Activate the update or disable automatic

  • Problem with the Courier font since the upgrade to Office 2007

    Hello world

    Since we switched to Office 2007, one of our users of Acrobat (he is the only person in the company really using Acrobat in fact) has problems when exporting Word documents to PDF format.

    So he is using Word 2007 and Acrobat 9 Pro (included in CS4), it changes the documents created with earlier versions of Word and the problem he's been since he has updated for Office 2007 (it was already using Acrobat 9 Pro without problem with Word 2003), in the Courier font is replaced by these rectangles as unknown character :

    Missing font.png

    So I would like to know what has changed in Word 2007 which specifies that mail fonts can only be exported to PDF (from what I read, it is one of the standard fonts still included in the PDF readers), if I can change some settings to fix it without changing all Word documents, or at least get a warning when it will happen.

    Indeed the biggest concern of the user is that he is not even receive a warning that this specific font will be output correctly so he could change only a few texts or images in the Word document and export it as a PDF and it will still check the whole document to ensure there was no text of mail which was not through.

    P.S. It uses the Adobe PDF printer to make export.

    Thank you.

    See if the police are not in the system. Open the document in Word and check Word > Options > advanced > view the contents of the document > button of substitution of police.

    Tip: If no joy, see if you can download the "fullfile" version updates via http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/ or http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/ and then manually install / them.

    There are a total of 11 updates.  I tried 1 updates both and each installation failed with the same error code.  All updates are downloaded via Windows Update and install all fail.  What is happening here.  Based on forum entries, this seems like a very repetitive mistake without intuitive solution.

  • Reinstall Office 2007

    I am trying to install a version upgrade of Office 2007 on a new computer.  Unfortunately, I can't locate a disc from a previous version.   Last summer that I lived my notebooks of old records.  Maybe I threw.   Of course, when I try to install, it says that he cannot find a version older hard disk and asked for a disc.   Is anyway to get this to install?  It is installed on my old computer and runs.  Is there anyway that I can get something for the old hard disk that will allow the software to install on the new?

    I found a version of Office 2007 for students.  Tried to put one in the drive, but it does not solve the problem either.

    And finally, if I end up having to buy 2010, can I buy the upgrade to this version?  This disc of 2007 I will be enough for me to load it?

    Thank you.

    I don't have the product key.  But, someone helped me to get the new installation to recognize the installation on my old computer through my home network.  Yes!

  • Office 2007 and after recent update blue screen errors

    After a recent update installed before shutdown, the Office 2007 applications will not start. An attempt is made to the installation program which translates by the display of an error box indicating that the office is not installed for this user (happens with all users). Office 2007 will not uninstall, and even attempts to repair or reinstall from the original disk fail. I tried to uninstall the update indicated and get up now a blue screen at startup. Any ideas on how to solve this problem.

    It is a problem with XP not Windows7, I changed the perameters during the validation of the request, but he always finished in the category of Windows7.

  • Office 2007 SP1 Windowsupdate error 646

    I just installed office 2007 on a new machine. 16 windows updates have been downloaded. All have failed.
    Read the various posts here. All manually downloaded and installed as an administrator. A Mr. Fixit and everything OK except Office 20007 SP1.
    Have tried several times to install this manually followed by Fixit, but still it fails - even in safe mode. Driving me crazy!
    Today still received 4 Windows 7 updates, automatically installed without problem.

    Please help much apprecited
    David

    Finally!  It solved!  Found a reference here somewhere that suggested the user account control may be the problem.  Tried to set it off, but it wouldn't work.  Looking for that problem and the article referred to a problem caused by the Office 97, make changes to the registry. It gives a solution I ran, disabled UAC OK, rebooted the machine, and then Windows Update.  Guess what? It worked the first time!  Conclusion: because I first installed Office 97 this machine, and then used a version upgrade to Office 2007, which caused the problem of UAC, which in turn has caused the problem of update.  How dark is it?  In any case, everything is now fine but what a trial!

  • RoboHelp X 5 compatibility with MS Office 2007?

    Our existing RoboHelp HTML X5.0.2 (Build 606) projects continue to work properly when society switches to the suite MicroSoft Office 2007?  Thanks in advance - of course I'm not a geek...

    Hi RonHyson and welcome to the HR community.

    Word 2007 is not supported in RHX5. However, you can still use RHX5 with Word 2007 installed provided you never want to use all the functionality of Word. This includes use of the HR to Word application or (in HR HTML application) import of Word documents or the layout of single source of printed Documentation.

    Note that if you install Office 2007 you will need to reinstall RHX5.

  • Office 2007 SP2 on Windows 7 will not install

    Recently upgraded from Vista to Windows 7. After that, a lot of problems to do Office 2003 and 2007 to play nice. Finish by uninstalling and reinstalling both. Now, applications seem to be happy, except for Word 2003 AND 2007, eager to relocate whenever they are launched. The biggest problem now is that the Office SP2 will not install. Tried registry cleaning, download .exe standalone and as an administrator and also using the tool PatchRegCleanup - x 86 .exe (which gives me a message "productcode must be determined" and makes me want to go out). Yes, Office 2007 disk is inserted. All other updates installed correctly.  Any help appreciated.
