G555 series laptop, pre-installed microsoft publisher 2007-product key
I would be grateful if someone could kindly inform me whether the aforesaid in the title is a trial version, as the software keeps asking for a product key, but the laptop (bought in the UK) never came with one. I've tried searching on the microsoft website, but it says I need to contact the manufacturer.
Any help would be much appreciated
The preinstalled Microsoft programs are Trials unless your purchase shows you have paid for them.

Microsoft Office 2007 Product Key??
I thought... The Microsoft Office 2007 was totally installed in this laptop. (I bought it 3 days ago.)
But once I click the Microsoft Office 2007 Word, it requires the product key?!!!
What do I need to do to use it without paying money?? It is gonna be so bad if I have to pay money.Rrrrrrr wrote:
Another +1 for Open Office. Not only is it FREE, it can use MS Office templates.
Another solution is MS has Office 2010 in beta form right now to use for free (I think its over in June though).
I prefer Open Office since its simpler and not as dolled up as MS Office is. Just my preference.
A word of warning though, the support for open source software is very limited. So, if you ever need help, good luck. I've recommended Linux and Open Office for many of my past clients and all were thrilled about it being free, but none were too happy when they needed help and found it lacking. Although I use Open Office, I can't belittle the value and usefulness of Micro$oft Office. It's a very developed suite of programs that is well worth its price. The sad part is that most people that use M$ Office only utilize about 10-15% of its potential (pretty much the word processing and table creation stuff) and as a result do not see its full value.

Microsoft Publisher 2007 - I know I know, why am I using Microsoft publisher 2007. I work for a pre-school and this is all they have and I am creating monthly newsletter templates for them. Anyways. I am trying to change the color of text and when
I publish the file as a PDF the colors are not showing. Please help!Hi,
This issue happens if you have a black and white printer set as the default printer. So even though you are not printing to it, Publisher picks up the color properties of the default printer and applies them to the PDF.
So in this case, change the default printer to something with color before saving to PDF.

Over the years I have had many ISP and email addresses - but now we have finally gone almost fully virtual...
I have a live login and MS ID 4 my SkyDrive account but I only use my MS touch with 8.1, SkyDrive and office 365 for mobility.
And I still like to backup to my own server!!!
What would be good is if I can put all the software licenses and product keys of the software and keep a record of my mac addresses for hardware and even static IP's in a file or a secure location within the MS online store.
That's where MS wants me to get my computing needs from in future and I will always be able to retrieve it in future but what about the $$$$$ I have spent on software, hardware and applications prior to now???
I know u guys love 2 collect data 4 marketing analysis,
4 example I have an old PC that is still running a server from last century - if you knew about it a simple script would allow you to offer upgrades or at least relevant MS products - UNLIKE the rubbish adds I just turn off or tune out
now...
Why cant I add products previous online email purchases into the 1 MS live ID account where I can keep it together? If you make that available I don't have to have separate steam accounts, EA game accounts, ASUS and adobe accounts etc
etc.
What has brought me 2 this is I was looking for my office pro 2007 disks to rebuild a HOME USE ONLY windows 7 laptop (NO touch screen so 8.1 is no benefit at all)
I HAVE 4 Genuine PRODUCT KEYs for Office 2007 BUT EVERY TIME I WENT TO DOWNLOAD the software - regardless of the key I used - I got the error message: We are sorry, but we are unable to complete your request.•The Office 2007 Product Key
provided is already associated with another user on this site. Please log in with the user information originally used with this Office 2007 Product Key.
That's crap - This is a clean brand spanker install of Win7 and there was nothing b4 I put the oem drivers from Toshiba back on.
I looked at dozens of support pages and forum blogs and tried for hours to get a copy to download - including incognito and other logins but because my default PC name is also my MS Windows live ID the same error was repeated.
I keep away from the non MS sites for these things and with good reason - there were heaps of similar users with the same issue or very close to it that had downloaded from a supposed MS copy from eValue or digital river etc and the next
thing was total corruption of the OS.
EVENTUALLY I found a LIVE MS chat on a support site in the US and she gave me a link to a slightly older version which will need updating and some reg edit changes but so far, so good.
The point is - what a crock !
I should be able to just keep all my software, drivers, updates, service packs, and versions that I have upgraded in the MS store.
If Microsoft aren't going to support XP or Office 2003 and eventually 2007, vista & Windows7 not far behind??? then that's still no excuse for them to put these restrictions and limits when I OWN my copy of the software!!
Unlike office 365 and SkyDrive space which is described in the T&C (that we all read before ticking that radial button to agree of course) as ONLY under a leased licence.
IF Microsoft can support AND develop software that supports SQL2000 Servers, why is it so hard to archive and keep the same info for everyone???Over the years I have had many ISP and email addresses - but now we have finally gone almost fully virtual...

Clean install of Windows 7, product key failed
I wanted to do a clean install of windows. I have a Windows 7 Home Premium 64 product key on the bottom of the laptop. So I made a windows 7 usb boot drive from an iso file from Microsoft's website and formatted the hard drive. I installed Windows 7 with no problems. I go to type in the product key and activate Windows and it fails. Microsoft support says the product key is blocked and that HP is responsible for supporting pre-loaded Windows laptops.
Why is the Windows product key written on the bottom of my computer blocked? And how do i fix it?Actually HP would ask you to contact MS. And MS would advice you to get Recovery media from HP. This is what is going to happen. You can try your luck with MS first.
MS withdrew all the Windows 7 ISO support, especially to OEMs 2 weeks back.

How do I remove the pre-installed Microsoft Office software from my T61 running XP-Pro?
I've reviewed the Lenovo support item on uninstall instructions but it does not say how to get the software off of my hard drive. Here's the Lenovo item.
To properly uninstall Microsoft Office 2007 Trial from the Lenovo preload, the following applications must be removed.
2007 Microsoft Office System
Activation Assistant for the 2007 Microsoft Office Suites
Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007
Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components
Microsoft Office 2007 Primary Interop Assemblies
Microsoft Office Small Business Connectivity Components
MS SQL Server 2005
MS SQL Server Native Client
MS SQL Server Setup Support Files
MS SQL Server VSS Writer
Uninstalling the Microsoft Office 2007 Office System will not remove all the components.
Uninstalling Business Contact Manager for Outlook will also uninstall MS SQL Server Components. During the uninstall routine, it will ask to delete the mail data file that contains the Business Contact Manager. Clicking OK, will remove the BCM, but not the SQL server apps, as the uninstall states.
From this point uninstall:
Activation Assistant,
MS Office 2003 Web Components
MS Office 2007 Primary Interop Assemblies,
MS Office Small Business Connectivity Components.
Then remove the MS SQL Server Components of server native client, server setup support files, and VSS writer.
Then remove the Activation Assistant shortcut from the desktop.
The first 3 apps listed are not installed because I have not run the activation assistant for the Office trial that came with the T61. Add/Remove programs has only these pre-installed apps:
Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components
Microsoft Office 2007 Primary Interop Assemblies
Microsoft Office Small Business Connectivity Components
MS SQL Server 2005
MS SQL Server Native Client
MS SQL Server Setup Support Files
MS SQL Server VSS Writer
Is the activation assistant one of them? I want to inactivate it because it is occasionally triggered somehow. Besides unintalling those preinstalled apps, I want to take all of the Office components off of my hard disk.
Add/Remove also has these apps but I'm thinking they are not part of Office -- please correct me if I'm wrong
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Hotfix (KB928366)
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1
Microsoft Web Publishing Wizard 1.52
FYI, I am using Lotus Suite and OpenOffice.
How do I tidy this up without creating more trouble? Thanks in advance for suggestions.lunagirl wrote:

No, AFAIK should be listed as Microsoft Office Suite Activation Assistant

Lost sound on my hp g series laptop after installing updates.
Okay so When I updated my laptop earlier today, it restarted and work fine for a minute but then when I went to turn down the song because it was loud my sound stopped working instantly. I can not hear any videos on the internet. Also I can't hear songs I have downloaded on my computer and my video player as well as itunes isn't working.
Go to the link below.Enter your Product Number as listed on Service Tag attached to bottom of notebook (may be under battery). You can also get the Product Number by pressing Fn + Esc key. After entering PN, click Next ,then choose Software & Drivers.On the next page use the dropdown to select your OS (probably Windows 7 64bit). A list will populate with drivers. Download & Save the latest Audio driver.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/siteHome?cc=us&lc=en
Go into Control Panel,Programs & Features-uninstall IDT software.Restart the laptop and install using the downloaded file.

If still no joy_Enter BIOS setup by tapping/holding the F10 key immediately after powering on the laptop. Once in reset to Default settings_usually F9 key, check the bottom of screen for key. Save & Exit.

Microsoft Office Word 2007 product key does NOT work
Hello,
my laptop model is Satellite - A505-S6980 and I've been using Microsoft Word but everytime I use it, it prompts me to enter a product key. Which I found on the bottom of my laptop and it is saying its invalid and after 25 times that I try to access microsoft word I will no longer be able to use the features it has. What should I do? if its the correct product key where can I find it? my microsoft word was already installed in my laptop so I do not have a CD. I've also already tried searching through microsoft forums and tried some stuff but it is not helping.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!that is because the product key on the bottom of the laptop is for windows not office. the office that was installed on your laptop is a 60 day trial so if it has been that long you will need to buy it. if you dont want to buy it you can try open office which is almost the same and free. if you do want to buy it i believe if you buy 2007 you will get a free upgrade to 2010 but you would have to check on the microshaft site. 2010 comes out in june

I did a system recovery and loast office 2007 how do i get it back
Hi ampresume,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I am sorry to hear that you lost your Microsoft Office 2007 when you did your system recovery. You will need to contact Microsoft Office support for help with your office.
In the meantime, here is some information from Microsoft for Microsoft Office 2007 that explains how to get the Product key.
I hope this helps, please let me know how it goes.
Thank you and have a nice day!

Windows 8 VAIO laptop - MS support insists on a product key but there isn't one
I have a VAIO SVE17125CDB that has behaved wonky since I first got it so I decided to do a system reset. Before doing the reset I upgraded the computer's BIOS (often a good idea in a situation like this). The problem is that now I need to redo the Windows' activation. Microsoft support claims that upgrading the BIOS is what caused this. They say this is quite normal and all they need is the product key. They (two levels of MS support) insist that the product key MUST be on a sticker on the bottom of the laptop. It is not. Without the product key they refuse to activate my PC. Sony support says I don't need the product key with Windows 8. So now I have a useless laptop. I think Sony and MS need to talk to each other.
Centrant,
I am sorry for any mixed information or if this difers from what you've been previously told, but there is no sticker with a Windows product key on the bottom of the VAIO notebook and this is completely normal.
If someone at Microsoft told you differently, they are completely incorrect. The Product key is embedded into the motherboard of the notebook and you should not have to enter the product key when you install Windows 8 (if everything is working properly). Windows should have visibility and be capable of using this key automatically.
If Microsoft repeatedly refuses to assist you beacuse there is no sticker on the Notebook, please obtain the Microsoft Agent's name, Agent ID, and a reference number to your phone call with them and I will provide feedback to Microsoft.
Updating the BIOS does not affect your Windows 8 Product key. However, changing hardware inside the notebook can. Have you undergone any repair or any parts replacement on this notebook at all? Please let me know as this is very important.
Without additional information it is hard to tell, but it is possible that something went wrong when you performed the system Reset. I would suggest instead performing a Factory Recovery with Sony Recovery Discs to ensure that the software is installed properly to Sony specifications. Is this something you would be willing to try? Did you create recovery discs initially when you first got the computer? If not you can purchase them from Sony Parts.
If you are installing your own copy of Windows 8 and not the copy with the Sony Recovery Discs, then you should still not need to enter the product key because it is embedded into the notebook. -

Downloaded Evaluation Version of Windows Server 2012 Standard- install is asking for product key
I downloaded the evaluation version of Windows server 2012 standard from the Microsoft TechNet site.
When I try to install server 2012 as a new virtual, I'm prompted for the product key for server 2012.
I do not have the key. How do I get the key? Or, why is this happening on a evaluation version?
Does anyone out there have the key for Windows server 2012 standard evaluation version, or know where I can get it?
Thank you.
