How do i download and reinstall windows 8 on my laptop

How do I access a download for the Windows 8 that was installed in my laptop when I purchased it

Hi asterioninc,
Welcome to Sony Community!
Can you provide us the exact model name and the current operating system of your unit?
Kindly click on this link to download the original operating system and the drivers and software that come with the laptop. Please make sure that you didn't do any clean install on this computer or wipe out the partition on the hard drive. If so, then you need to buy a Vaio Recovery disc .
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Jen

How do I download and reinstall Photoshop Elements 11?

How do I download and reinstall Photoshop Elements 11?

I've tried to download it from the link provided to me by Adobe at the time of purchase, but have been unable to do so.
Which link?
Try http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-10-11-downloads.html
What problem are you having? Can you spell it out for us?
Can you download successfully? Can you not install successfully? Any error messages or codes?

No, you must install Windows to run Windows software. You do not need to use Boot Camp (yes, it's free because it comes with OS X.)
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

How do I download and reinstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 11? I have a new iMac and all other software converted except Photoshop...

I purchased a new iMac Retna Display and converted over my other software from my old iMac. Most all apps converted fine, however Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 just launched with an error stating we needed to reinstall the application. We have the original serial number but can not find a copy of Elements 11 on Adobe's site to download and reinstall. Also, we can not find any contact information for Adobe support even though the messages in the forum state we must contact adobe customer support to resolve this issue.
Please advise...
Thank you

How do I download and reinstal word 2000

how do I reinstall word 2000?

Word 2000 was never available as a download. It was only ever supplied on hard media (e.g. CD-ROM) and that is what you would have to reinstall it from. Although some of the updates to it were available for download, SR1A, which was the first Service
Release, is no longer available and is necessary before the later Service Packs could be applied. In any event Office 2000 is not compatible with any currently-supported version of Windows.

How do I download and reinstall the mac app store?

I'm running 10.6.8 and I removed the Mac App Store application from my application folder because after numerous attempts it kept failing to open.
I went back to my software update hoping it would re-install the App Store. No such luck. Curious how I might go about re-installing an working version of the Mac App Store software.
Thanks so much.
AWrenn

Installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
will reinstall the App Store for you. It's ok to do this even though you already running v10.6.8
Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
You should then be able to access the App Store from your Apple menu, the Dock, or the Applications folder.

System Update - need it to download and reinstall drivers, how?

Hi all,
I think some packages have overwritten some of the working drivers of my X61t, and now all external USB hard drives (flash, or non-flash) have become painfully and unusably slow --- 4 minutes to right click and delete a file in the drive, and transfer a few MB of file from / to USB = more than 10 minutes.
System updates version 3 told me that I have the most updated system (no critical or recommended updates), but how can I download and reinstall the required system drivers of my hardware through it then?
Please help!

After downloading latest Reader software (11) on my Mac (OS10.7.5) I cannot print pdf files on either of my two printers. How do I uninstall and reinstall the software? Adobe's instructions are only for Window devices.

After downloading latest Reader software (11) on my Mac (OS10.7.5) I cannot print pdf files on either of my two printers. I suspect corrupt software. How do I uninstall and reinstall the software? Adobe's on-line instructions are only for Window devices.

You can just drag the file to the trash. If you want you can remove the pdf plug-in from the internet-plug in folder, but that should not be necessary to correct your problem.

Unless you've done anything to change it, Google keeps every email that ever passes through their server in your All Mail folder/mailbox/label. Even if you delete stuff, they hold onto it, there. You have to go out of your way to actually delete anything permanently.
