How do I install software

Just had my hard drive replaced. Tried to install Office by inserting disk but it doesn't install.

Is this the Office DVD from the install on your original hard drive?  If so, you will probably need to contact MicroSoft about a new authentication code since it was already installed on another drive.

    Q7: How do I activate?
    A7: To activate the product, follow these steps:
    1. Launch application and click Enter your product key.
    2. Review the Software License Agreement and click Continue.
    3. You must agree to Software License Agreement. Click Continue.
    4. Enter your product key and click Activate. The Activation Wizard automatically contacts the Microsoft licensing servers through your Internet connection. When you activate the product by using the Internet, the product key is sent to Microsoft through an encrypted transfer. If you decide to activate the product through the Internet and you are not already connected, the wizard alerts you that there is no connection. Click either Activate by Phone or Activate later.  Note Do not lose the product key. Keep the packaging, or note the number. Keep the number information in a safe location.  Your product key is a unique sequence of 25 letters and numbers divided into groups of 5.  If you purchased a box with a DVD: The product is located on the back of the Office for Mac DVD sleeve.  If you purchase through a web site: The product key is sent to you in email with the title Microsoft Office for Mac – Order Confirmation”
    5. If the activation is successful, you receive the following message:  
    Your copy of <product title> is now activated.
    If for any reason the Activation fails, click Activate by phone. Select your location and then dial the phone number on the screen. For example, for United States: 1866-825-4797 or United Kingdom: (44)-(203)-147-4930. You can telephone an Activation Center to obtain the help of a customer service representative and activate the product. Telephone activation might take longer than activation through the Internet. You should be at the computer when you call. Additionally, you should have your software product key. When you select this option, the Activation Wizard generates an Installation ID. You musy have this Installation ID to activate the product by telephone.
    Important When you telephone the Activation Center, you are prompted to read the Installation ID numbers.
    Note Activation Center numbers are not listed for all locations in this article because telephone contact numbers vary by license and also by country or region. The Activation Wizard gives you the number to telephone the Activation Center.

  • How do I install software from cd-rom onto my IdeaPad S10?

    I just received my IdeaPad S10.  How do I install software from a cd-rom onto it?  I tried putting my cd-rom in my regular laptop and copying it onto a flash drive and then copying it to the IdeaPad.  The installation starts, then I get a message that installation has stopped because the installation has been corrupted.  Any easy ways to install software?

    Here's what you can do.
    Download virtual Clone drive (freeware) from here http://www.slysoft.com/en/download.html  install it on your S10.
    Now on your destop, make a backup ISO of your software CD or DVD. 
    I use this http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm it integrates with explorer on the right click menu. There are other solutions also.
    Once your ISO is created you can copy it to your S10 via network, usb key, etc, and mount it as a drive letter with Virtual CLone drive.
    Hope that helps.

  • Just brought home newly purchased MacBook Pro 15"/Maverick/Retinal Display. To my astonishment, there is NO DVD slot! No one in the store told me about this missing feature. Intolerable, How does one install software? Insert CDs to copy for iTunes?Do I ha

    Just brought home newly purchased MacBook Pro 15"/Maverick/Retinal Display. To my astonishment, there is NO DVD slot! No one in the store told me about this missing feature. Intolerable, How does one install software? Insert CDs to copy for iTunes?Do I have to purchase an external DVD drive? Is one even available? What a crock!

    I’ve owned Macs since 1990 (IICX my first), mostly desktops. Having had DVD/CD drives in all my previous laptop Macs since 2001 -  (2) G4 Powerbooks,  A 17” Mac Book Pro - and also inspecting a friend’s year-old Mac Book Pro which had the DVD slot - unless someone told me at purchase, I had no reason to know that the Retina display version of the 15” had NO DVD drive. ANYHOW, I fully intended to buy the non-Retina display version, because it was cheaper. Unfortunately by the time I got to the Apple store they were no longer selling the non-Retina display version; all versions were ONLY with the Retina display. And the fine distinction of a DVD vs. a non-DVD drive was not pointed out. So now I have to shell out an additional $80 bucks for an external SuperDrive.

  • How do I install software w/out change to graphic / video settings

    Installing software changes ALL my graphic and video settings, screwing up how I view video, my photo viewing / editing capabilities, and rendering jpeg files in MS Word documents unavailable (they are visible on the monitor but won't print out, can't change attributes).
    Note: I had to restore my computer to a date prior to my first install attempt, rather than just uninstalling.
    I tried reinstalling, unchecking the three default boxes during setup. That did not eliminate the problem. Again, I had to restore my computer to an earlier setting, rather than just uninstalling the software.
    I don't want to use Quicktime to view video streaming.
    Any suggestions?

    You can restore to the latest available software.

  • How can I install software without Classic environment?

    I've got a huge problem. My Powerbook hard drive failed and no data can be recovered. So, because I needed a new computer, I just got the new iMac intel. But here's why I'm freaking out. I've got a lot of software (like Quark Xpress 6 and Addobe Acrobat 6.0) that are all upgrades to previous versions. But since the new iMacs don't run Classic environment, I can't install the older versions of software so I can install my upgrades. What on Earth do I do? I'm a graphic designer - so I HAVE to have Quark on this new machine.
    I have a lot of software in Windows format. I keep reading different things that say I can boot Windows on my new iMac. Does this mean there is a way for me to install software that runs on a PowerPC on my new iMac? If so, how do I do that?
    I need all the help I can get with this one. I tried contacting Apple and did a chat with an Apple agent that got me nowhere. All I know is that I cannot afford to buy the full versions of software right after buying this new machine. HELP!!!!!!!

    Congratulations on your new iMac.
    Quark can be reinstalled by inserting the upgrader disk and double clicking the Quark upgrader icon. A dialog box opens that asks "In order to begin upgrading your current version of QuarkXPress you will be asked to locate the directory". At this point, while holding down the "Option" key, click the "ok" button. The install should go smoothly from there.
    In regards to Acrobat, any older version requiring classic will not run on your new intel iMac. However, if you've already purchased an upgrade, i believe there is an option of opting to enter your old serial number, rather than pointing the installer to a previous installation when installing the upgrade.

  • How i can install software update for iphone 3g

    hi. im downloaded a IOS 4.2.1 for my 3g i phone how i can install it now!
    il try open it> itunes comes up and do nothing...

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    The normal method of upgrading the iPhone is to connect the phone to your computer with the USB cable, open iTunes app on the computer, highlight the phone in the devices list and click the button to Update the phone. iTunes then downloads and installs the new iOS. Is this what you are doing?

  • How to check installed software's in Client Computers

    Hi,
    I installed SCCM 2012 in  windows 2008 R2 server and how can i check that
    what all software's installed on client machines.
    i am able to get hardware details of client machines.
    please help me,

    For that you need to enable software inventory class.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh509028.aspx
    Software Inventory is actually a file inventory and although it will inventory exe's present on a system, this (IMO) is not indicative of what software is actually installed on a system.
    Hardware Inventory, by default, gathers info from the ARP (as pointed out by Kent) and should be used initially. Also, enabling the proper Asset Intelligence classes which build upon ARP and return information via hardware inventory also improves the data

  • How do I install software from disk on Macbook Air?

    I have an external CD player but the Macbook Air doesn't seem to recognise it. So how do I get my software from disk onto my Macbook?

    I did not get the "This document is not recognised do you want to choose an application to open it with" error message.  It's just that it is not recognizing any content at all on the CD in Finder.  I have used this external CD drive before with this Macbook.  I also tried to open the docs through Word and it again showed that a CD was in "Devices" as a "Remote Disc" but does not recognize any of the docs on the CD.

  • How do I install software from DVD on mini with no Optical Drive

    I purchased Aperture on DVD at an Apple store in 2007 when the App store did not exist. The new Mac mini does not have an optical drive. I did not migrate applications from my previous Mac mini because it doesn't seem to let you choose which applications.  (I had several legacy migrations involved and didn't want that junk on my new mini.)  The App store, of course, does not know I've already paid for Aperture and wants to charge me to download it.  I discovered you cannot install from another computer's DVD just by mounting that DVD on the target computer.  It will tell you it can't install over the network.   It also won't let you drag the contents of the DVD onto the target computer (which worked with Office 2011).  It will tell you that method of installation is not supported. All Apple could suggest was to buy an optical drive which would have been almost anoher $100. Apple support doesn't seem to understand why Aperture is not in my iTunes purchase history (because iTunes didn't exist for Aperture then!)
    I just had a wonderful discovery.  I found this support article that details how you have to turn DVD sharing on under Sharing Preferences on the computer that does have the optical drive, then you can use the Remote Disc under Devices on the target computer to request use of that drive. Finally, the installer will run.
    I'm putting this info here because I searched but was unable to find this subject in the Support Community.  I'm sure someone has asked this question, but I couldn't form a query that would find it.
    Article from Apple with instructions for Remote Disc
    Now if someone could just tell me how to get the App store turned on for my copy of Aperture so I don't have this issue in the future when no Apple computer will have an optical drive!
    Message was edited by: WorkerBee

    Actually, when I followed that link, one of the related links in More Like This was a real find!  An actual download of Aperture, albeit a trial, but that would have solved my problem too.  I tested it and although it's embeded in a support article, the link to the trial version of Aperture still works.
    Thanks!  Great info here if you can find it.
