• Windows XP will not activate.

  Starting a box appears on the screen and Windows asks me to activate, when I do this another box comes up and says that Windows is already activated. I now have four days to activate Windows XP.

  It was a new update in a store, and yes a new motherboard has been implemented with only a few weeks. What is this business of piracy? This copy was placed in the shop and I used my original disc number I had in my old machine for a while?

  What we say here that XP original and the number isn't good and everytime I update, I have to buy a software from Microsoft?

  This means you are trying to install an OEM of Windows version which was provided by a computer on another computer manufacturer. A new motherboard is classified as a new computer and will not work.

  Thank you.

  NO! There is no Windows 7 Ultimate trial.

  There is a free trial Windows 7 Enterprise, but who would not be eligible to use an upgrade of Windows 8 with her.

  To use the upgrade of Windows 8 you must have a previous version installed, licensed and registered in Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.

• Can not stop iCloud Install at the Windows prompt in iTunes

  I get this prompt in iTunes for Windows (twice in an hour now) asking me to "Install iCloud for Windows?" with a button "ICloud download for Windows...» "and a button"Remind Me later "; the only other button is the red X button in the upper right, which I already clicked before. I'm just trying to sync my library.

  http://imgur.com/GGkib45

  How can I stop this? I don't need 'Photo Stream' on my PC... It's too intrusive and disrespectful of Apple to ask me about it with no option of disengagement. Apple has not generally been seller insisting with their products, and it makes me less confident of them.

  What you might try is to go and install iCloud on your PC.  Then disconnect from iCloud, and uninstall it according to the bottom of this link:

  Hi Hugh,.

  Thanks for posting this question in the Microsoft Community.

  If I understand correctly, you are facing a problem with the Windows Activation. I'll help you find a solution, but I need to ask you a few questions.

  Do you have any security program installed on the computer? Have you done a recent software or changes to the material on the computer?
