Are all Lenovo laptops shipped with the same Windows 7 Home Premium Product Key?

We've puchased a number of Lenovo Gxxx laptops and record the Windows 7 Product key, using Magical Jellybean or another tool, for a variey of reasons, including the fact that they clickly wear off the bottom of the laptop. I've noticed that the laptops all report the same OEM Key, which doesn't match the sticker on the bottom of the laptop. I've never encountered this with other laptops; is something wrong here?

If they all use Lenovo's Windows 7 Home Premium, just create a restore DVD or call them for one and you can use that 1 DVD to reinstall any of them. Due to the Key hidden in you bios/mobo when you install with Lenovo's CD you will not have to enter in a Key (as it see yours already) I know for a fact cause it did it for me. I did not have to enter a Key. If you are to use the CD for a none Lenovo PC it will ask you for a Key (as it did when I installed it in VirtualBox) And like I stated before it's a VL that is pre-installed with new systems.

I have two laptops authorized with the same itunes account. One computer is not working, so I want to know how I can access my playlists, etc. that are one that computer on the working one?

I have two laptops authorized with the same itunes account. However, there are different playlists on each laptop. One laptop is messed up and I cannot get on the internet with it, so I was able to deauthorize it from the itunes account. I thought that would bring the playlists over to the other computer, but it did not. Is there a way to do it?

Are there any free apps with the same app iPhoto?

Are there any free apps with the same app iPhoto?

Do you want to get iPhoto for free, or are you looking for supplemental apps that are working well with iPhoto?
I do not know of any free third party replacement for iPhoto. For add-ons browse the Store - there are some nice camera apps, image editors, and panorama stitchers, some are free (cam wow, pic collage, Photo splash, pixlr-o-matic).

ERROR: MyService.jws:715:There are two or more operations with the same schema-element 'ns0:MyNameSpace' on the input message in a web service file or callback interface.

I have two web service operations that have the same complex type as their input
parameter. I want to map this type to an existing schema. I can successfully
do this with the first operation using XQuery but when I attempt to do this with
the second operation I get the following error:
ERROR: MyService.jws:715:There are two or more operations with the same schema-element
'ns0:MyNamespace' on the input message in a web service file or callback interface.
ERROR: SUGGESTION: Use different schema-element values for each of those operations.
How can I use different schema-element values? The input parameters are to be
mapped to the same schema and same element since they are the same for both operations....

I am having the same problem. How did you resolve this..?? could you please tell me the solution??
Thanks

When I click a link, it opens 2 tabs with the same window

I am trying to open a link from a website. When I click it, 2 tabs with the same site open. It's only on a few links. How can I fix it?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Cookies are written to the cookie file but sites are not finding them. I've tried all the suggestions I could find. I'm using OS 10.5.8 Could there be something in the OS causing the problem? My Win7 laptop works with the same sites.

I cannot log-in to accounts on other websites e.g. eBay, Amazon, for starters. I get messages that I need to turn on cookies. They are on and I can see the cookies in the cookie file but the programs are not making the connections and not finding the cookies. I've found that I have the same problem with Safari and Camino. Could something in the OS be interfering and if so, how can I fix this? The problem only exits on my Mac with OS 10.5.8 On my new Windows 7 laptop Firefox has no problem logging into any of my existing accounts.

If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

HT4818 Can you use both Bootcamp and Parallels with the same Windows 7 installed

I have Parallels installed with Windows 7. Can I use both Bootcamp and Parallels on the same machine depending on whether I just want to work in Windows all day (Bootcamp) or alternate during the same session (Parallels)?

You can, yes. But there is a complication: once you activate windows it will only be activated for one of the two methods you use. So, let's say you install into boot camp and activate windows. You can then install Parallels and it will find your boot camp installation, but when running in Parallels, Windows will report that it is not activated. Or, you can activate it in Parallels and when running in Boot Camp Windows will report that it is not activated. The reason for this is because Windows thinks it is running on different computers depending on how you boot it. This may not be an issue for you if you run Windows a lot one way and just occasionally the other way, so be sure to activate Windows in whichever method you use more often. Hope this helps!

How do i get firefox to open with the same window size every time, even if the last instance I had open had a different window size because I resized it??

My firefox opens new windows with a size that equals the current window I have open, or if I have no window open, the last window I closed. I would like to have it open windows the same size every time, regardless of what size the current window is, or what size the last window I closed was. I cannot find a setting or addin to do this anywhere. I have resizer which lets me change the size, but it is annoying that I can't have a default size for windows being opened. I open windows in new windows, not tabs.

Open link/bookmark in new tab in same window:
*Middle-click (press the mouse scroll wheel) the link
*Ctrl+left click the link
*right-click the link, choose "Open Link in New Tab"
Open link/bookmark in new window:
* Shift+Enter on the link
* Shift+left click on the link

Can I install Linux and then use the original Windows 8 OEM product key for a virtual machine on the same computer?

I have ordered a new laptop and expect to receive it in 2-3 weeks. The laptop comes with an OEM version of Windows 8 installed. I wish
to install Linux as the host operating system and create a virtual machine running Windows 8. Can I legally use the product key from the OEM installation to activate a virtual machine that will only be used on the laptop that had the original OEM installation?
If so, what is the procedure to activate the copy installed on the virtual machine?
This question has been addressed for Windows 7, but my searches did not reveal this question posed for Windows 8.

Technically, no. The OEM is licensed only for the physical hardware on the system. It isn't licensed for virtual hardware.
You may find you're unable to activate your OEM license in the VM. A lot of OEM Windows look for specific hardware to verify they're being installed on the correct hardware.
Although here: http://www.microsoft.com/oem/en/Pages/support-faq.aspx#fbid=Zh0SiBdas5I
Q. Can I install OEM on a virtual machine (VMware)?
A. You may install OEM in a virtual environment as long as you have a separate license for each instance of the software. It is fine to use the OEM version as long as it is properly licensed. To be clear, a separate version of software must be installed
for both the “standard” and “virtual” installations.
You still may not be able to activate if there is a hardware block.
The best place to ask this is to Microsoft licensing, any response you get here, including mine, won't hold up since it's not an official answer.

Are all songs bought on iTunes the same bitrate?

If so why is there a difference in pricing for identical songs, for example I was looking to purchase "Rubber Duckie" by Ernie of Sesame Street, but one is priced at $1.29 and the other is $.99.

Not all songs are at identical bit rates.
But bit rates may or may not be the only factor that is used to establish price.

Multiple video tracks with the same audio track

How do I get DVDSP to play the same audio track on 3 different video tracks without having to repeat the audio on each of the 3 video trax?
Seems simple, but I can't find an easy way to do it.
Anybody got any ideas?

Yes they are all one continuous stream with the same GOP structure and everything. I had to export them as QT movies from FCP to get them all the same. I only exported the video though becuase the audio was going to be the same for all the tracks, & it was already done as AC3 through Compressor. Which brings up an interesting question; why does DVDSP convert the AC3 audio to .aiff which is a much larger format?
I'm trying to go back and look at the encoding log from DVDSP to see what error it gave.
It doesn't give the error in the log since I had shut down my computer last night, so I guess I'll have to try the build again and see what error it gives.
I'm looking at the parsing files and .m2v files that DVDSP did during the build, and it parsed all 3 angles, and finished the .m2v file of the medium shot, including 6 minutes past the point I told DVDSP to stop it. (When exporting the QT movie from FCP, I had forgotton and encoded the whole 2:30:00 show instead of the 1st 1/2 of 1:16:47:15, and then just adjusted the end of the clip in DVDSP).
The wide shot and Close up .m2v files, and the audio .aiff file were in the folder, but have nothing in them. The Video_TS folder and Audio_TS folder are also there, but with nothing in them, so whatever happened, seems to have happened in the medium shot encoding process.
I'm pretty much over this multi-angle thing, and I'm going to start working on an edited version of this today because all I have to do is make the cuts between cameras, since the audio is already mixed. However, if you have any other ideas, please let me know.

A few days ago i ordered applecare for my iphone 5 at sprint. i bought it along with my iphone at the same time. is it supposed to ship at the same time or is the applecare gonna ship a few days later? i already got my iphone but no applecare ! i called

i got apple care + a few days ago with a iphone 5 at sprint. are they suppost to ship at the same time? i got my iphone first and i havnt gotten mt applecare+ yet. is it a package or just a email? i called people at sprint and some of them said it was just an email.

UPDATE: I did receive the following 2 items in the mail today regarding my Apple Care +:
1.) Two (2) purchase invoices for Apple Care + on our new iPhone 5s. One for my iPhone 5 and one for my wife's iPhone 5.
2.) Two (2) certificates (e.g. a contract) detailing the terms & conditions of the Apple Care + coverage on our iPhone 5s including all the phone numbers for each individual state in the USA that has exemptions/exceptions.
The only phone number provided for the award winning teams is the only they always provide:

After installing latest update Realplayer recording no longer works, I think Mozila is using a library file with the same name

After installing the latest update to Firefox onto Vista operating system the record part of real player no longer works, I think Mozila and Real are using a library file with the same name and the Mozila update is overwriting a Realplayer library file.

I was giong to say, "Help me, Adobe Joe Kenobi", but it looks like you're growing a beard waiting for an answer, too.
The same thing happened to me today. I trusted the "update" message since it was from Adobe, and apprently did so at my own peril. Now I get the "failed to load Core dll" message with a secondary reference to a memory address.
Just an observation, but what good are these forums when there are no answers? I see this problem as "Caused by Adobe Update", and would expect them to troublshoot and offer up a remedy. Since you've been waiting over two months with no response, I suppose it's time to trek off wasting more of my precious time to fix their problem. If I find the solution, I'll post it back to you.
May the Force be with you.

The iPhone does not run ActiveX. That is proprietary to MS Internet Exploder.

I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro. My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook. They are all associated with the same Apple ID. How do I get all of my music on the laptop?

I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro. My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook. They are all associated with the same Apple ID. When I try to sync, I get a warning message stating that I will lose songs on my phone which aren't on the laptop. How transfer my music from my phone to the laptop?

Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.
