I thought all windows 7 home premium users had an upgrade key

I thought all windows 7 home premium users had  an upgrade key but I cannot find mine.

Hello Bill645,
I see that you are looking for a upgrade key for your Windows 7 computer. I would like to help with this issue but I need some information.
What are you thinking the upgrade key would be for?
What are you trying to upgrade to?

  • I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imac so I could install Windows 7 Home Premium and had no trouble everthing is working fine the only question I have is is there a benefit to migrating the 2 together and what happens when I do Thanks.  Ricco

    I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imack so I could install Windows 7 Home Premiumwith no problem and everthing is working fine, and I was thinking of Migrating the 2 2 and was wondering what benefits there would be and what happens when I do.

    Windows 7 will peer down through the VM and remember what hardware the VM is installed on. Migrate the VM to different Mac hardware, and on first boot, Windows 7 will advise you that you are not using genuine Microsoft Windows. It will then treat you as though it believes you misappropriated it.

  • Windows 7 Home Premium - cannot log on to user's account (immediate logout).

    I cannot logon to my Windows 7 Home Premium user account. The system says "Welcome" for some short time and then immediately logs me out.
    I have found the following warning in system logs:
    The Windows logon process has failed to spawn a user application. Application name: . Command line parameters: c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe.
    I have found this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929825 but it didn't solve my problem. Userinit and Shell registry keys are correct, and I still cannot log on using account that has no administrative permissions. I've also tried to create another
    user - with no effect. What can I do?
    (Sorry for my English, I'm still learning it.)

    Hi,
    The logon process is initiated by a file called userinit.exe which is located in System32 directory.
    If it gets corrupted or it gets deleted, the user will not be able to logon.
    Since you have checked the registry and it is right. Then try to copy this file to your System32 directory for test.
    Please firstly log on into with administrative permissions, and then run virus scan.
    Microsoft Safety Scanner
    http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
    And then copy this file userinit.exe from C:/windows/system3 from a normally booting PC or from your install CD.
    Paste it in the affected PC in the same path.
    Also check if the issue occur in safe mode.
    Hope this helps,

  • How can I downgrade my windows 7 Ultimate to windows 7 home premium?

    I have installed Windows 7 ultimate on my new computer, but I do not have a product key for it. I would like to install Windows 7 home premium, I have a product key for W7 HP, but I am worried I will loose all of my programs! Is there any way to keep my
    programs and boot with home premium? Thanks!

    You can't install Windows without a valid product key in the first place.
    If you've installed Windows, which didn't ask for a product key, you may be using a pirated copy of Windows.
    But I appreciate your move to use your own license.
    As v-yamliu says, yopu need to perform a clean install only.
    To preserve the user settings and files (all programs may not work properly if copied, requiring reinstallation), you can use Windows Easy Transfer. Follow the links for reference:

  • The User Profile Service service failed to Login user Profile error in Windows 7 Home Premium

    Hi,
    I recently purchased a new Dell Inspirion 1564 Laptop which had Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit installed.
    The hardware configuration is i5 core Processor, 4GB Ram , 320GB HDD and 512MB Graphics card.
    Today morning, I couldn't login as the system returned the following error after I entered the password.
    "The User Profile Service service failed to login.
    User Profile cannot be loaded"
    I couldn't login at all as i had not created any other user account, even the face recognition didn't work.
    I had to restore my pc to the previous state. I believe this happened after the installation of Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool x64 - March 2010 (KB890830) update, not immeditately though as i used the system few times after the installation of this update.
    Is this a bug? I cant imagine if this happens if I am about to give a presentation, its going to be disastrous!
    Any help is appreciated

    I'm getting the same issue - I'm the IT Manager at a school where every student has a laptop (fujitsu tablet T4410). This occurs to at least one new student every day. I have been unable to re-create the issue on demand, although I suspect it occurs when a temporary user profile gets created after the logon process takes too long (due to some disk activity, possibly related to windows updates or some thing). When we were creating student accounts on the machines, this would occur if we attempted to log in the newly created account before the computer had 'settled down' - it seems that there is a logon timeout, after which something stops working. If the new user's first logon happened too soon after booting, the profile would be corrupted. But this doesn't quite explain why it occurs seemingly randomly now.
    My current solution is to boot into safe mode, back up the user's files, delete the account, create it again (the other suggested solutions on the internet did not work)
    If you're desperate, you can log in while in safe mode, and use that to create a new account.
    In any case, this is proving a very bad experience of Windows 7 for my students, and I hope to see a more useful fix for this soon.

    Hi, I've an iPad Mini with the latest version 6.0.2, a windows 7 Home Premium laptop and iTunes 11.0.1 (12), but I can't synchronize my music or videos with it. I managed to syncronize my books but thats all.
    I also have an iphone 5 and everything seems to work fine with it.
    I see all movies and music available to be sync but when I click on the sync button, the process starts, the bottom bar shows an increase in consumed space then nothing happens and the bar goes back as nothing was added.
    Please help..
    I have tried everything but nothing works.

    Thanks Sk8dreams,
    ....but I wish I could have lol like u right now..
    If I could get a free iPad everything I'd already kept my iPad connected and restarted iTunes, I think I'd have had a truckload of them by now...
    I've done all of these..
    Like I said earlier I syncd everything to my iphone5 successfully...
    I got my PDF ebooks to this same iPad... Films & Music do not seem to be getting through..
    I'm sure someone out there knows what to do..

    I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS.I've never had this problem before... today I opened iTunes and it prompted me to download the newest version.  I use iTunes all the time and have updated it multiple times with no issues.  During the installation process it gave me an error message that said: 
    Runtime error! 
    Program C:\Program Files\iTunes.exe
    R0634
    An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
    Please contact the application's support team for more information.
    I quit the installation, uninstalled iTunes and rebooted my computer.  I now receive a similar message with a slight difference:
    Runtime error! 
    Program C:\Program Files (x86)...
    R0634
    An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
    Please contact the application's support team for more information.
    I did not leave anything out from the error message.  It doesn't point to a specific file, it just ends with "(x86)..."  Every time I boot up my computer, this error message pops up on my desktop.
    How do I repair this issue?  I have found multiple suggested solutions but am unsure which one is the best, and I don't want to try a bunch of different things for fear I may make the problem worse.  I would like to try and fix this myself if possible but I need to know if that is really possible or if I need to take my computer to someone for repairs.  Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!

    Hi lustyln,
    I'm having a little trouble understanding all of what you are trying to explain. From what I can tell, it sounds like your PC has a lot of software problems and you want to know what is supposed to be there and what isn't.
    For reference, here are your product specifications:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01893242&lc=en&product=4043282
    To get your PC software back to how it was when it was first purchased, run a system recovery:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01867418&lc=en&product=4043282
    I hope this helps.

  • I recieve my reciepts from all of my Apple purchases via email to my email cllient "MS Outlook 2003" on a Windows 7 Home Premium platform. I cannot format the print appearance of HTML documents within Outlook and the print border cuts of the last digit?

    I use MS Outlook as my email client under Windows 7 Home Premium and when I receive a reciept from Apple for purchases made for my iPhone (Stores or iTunes) the HTML formatting cuts off the last digit of the price paid on my eReceipts (the only receipts I get). Outlook 2003 does not allow for HTML print formatting since they (HTMLs) are formatted from the source (Apple). Can you help me to get Apple to fix this or find a workaround?

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
    When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.
    Every problem has a solution!

    I am running IE 11 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit Service Pack 1. When I attempt to install Flash Player, it goes through all of the steps, tells me the player is installed, and welcomes me. I cannot open the player and it does not appear in the Start Menu, Task Manager, System Tray, or anywhere else. When I try to open a file, the site tells me Flash player is not installed. I have even downloaded it to a separate folder and ran the install with IE shut down completely. And Shockwave in ENABLED but in 32 bit .I have been trying to get this to work for about 3 weeks now.  HELP!!!

    Flash Player is a browser add-on, not an executable program.
    If you need to open a local SWF file you will need the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you will need to make the file association manually.

  • I have windows vista home premium and all other versions of iTunes worked on my laptop iTunes 10 won't work, I get a message saying I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my browser configuration?

    I have windows vista home premium and all other iTunes worked on my laptop, I downloaded iTunes 10 and now the iTunes will not connect to the Internet. I use Mozilla firefox on my laptop and for some reason it keeps saying the connection timed out and I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my web configuration?

    It probably has to do with your security and/or browser configuration.
    When my laptop crashed last year and I had to get a new one, I dealt with the same thing. First, go to your control panel and select the security section. See if your firewalls are up or not. If they are, turn them off. If you have any software to speed up your browser, that can affect the connection as well. Go into that software and disble/turn it off. If this doesn't work, contact customer support. They have a few other tricks they had me try that worked, but I can't remember them now.

  • Windows 7 Home Premium problem creating new user account

    I am unable to create a new user account on my Windows 7 Home Premium computer. I have 3 accounts on it already, two are adminstrators, and just trying to add a fourth one (standard user).
    I go to User Accounts, click Create new account, give it a name, keep Standard user checked, and press Create Account. The account appears to get created and shows up on the User Accounts screen, though it shows that it is password protected already, even
    though I didn't have an opportunity to give it a password yet. I can manage that new user account and delete the password, and it then shows up on User Accounts as not having a password.
    When I try to log on as that user from the main logon screen, it prompts me for the password (if I have specified one), but it doesn't accept the password (I've tried defining and using various ones), and I get the message "The user name or password is incorrect".
    If I don't define a password for that account, when I click on the account button to logon, I get that same error message immediately.
    I also noticed that C:\Users doesn't include the new user account folder there. Don't know if that should've been created at this point before logging on for the first time. I also noticed that there's a "Default User" folder that has a lock on the folder
    icon, and I'm not able to open that folder (says it's invalid). There is a "Default" folder there with some content in it and I am able to view it. Don't know if either of these folders act as templates for new users.
    At some point months ago I did have a profile problem with one of the existing accounts, and had to follow some suggestions on repairing that user profile. Don't know if that perhaps has complicated things. The 3 existing user accounts are working fine.
    Any tips on what I can try to get a new account established?
    Thanks, Chuck

    I agree with the same problem and the answer below did not work either.  I tried changing permissions to Users directory and that did not work either.  I even tried creating the directory name of user I wanted to install and that was recognized and
    being used, but will not start a user directory for new user.

  • SUPERDRIVE reads ALL my DVD's EXCEPT ONE!!!:: My Windows 7 Home Premium. WHY IS THIS?????

    iMac reads all my DVD's except one my WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM INSTALL DVD!
    The windows dvd works fine on a pc so I know it's not the DVD.
    Now I have seen people posting that their Superdrive doesn't work, or that it only reads cd's - I DONT HAVE THOSE PROBLEMS!
    I reiterate my Superdrive reads ALL DVD's EXCEPT MY WINDOWS & HOME PREMIUM INSTALL DVD.
    Is the Superdrive designed specifically to reject windows software? Absurd as it sounds this is the only logical conclusion.
    This is what i have been trying to do over the last 4 days:
    I purchased Windows 7 Home Premium DVD so I can partition my Hard drive and devote 100gb to Windows.
    I have a late 2009 iMAC running the latest Mountain Lion OS.
    I have cleaned the Superdrive by putting a credit card and microfibre cloth like people have suggested. If it was dirty or required cleaning then surely it wouldn't play any DVD and not just the Windows DVD? anyway that didn't work either.
    Since the Superdrive reads the Windows 7 DVD once every 30 or so tries when it is eventually recognised I try to install it via bootcamp. Each attempt windows stops, the first time I got as far as the windows is loading screen and was stuck on that screen for 2 hours and was forced to power off, the second time I got as far as please load a driver or something and press any key with a flashing cursor in the top left of the screen, pressing keys did nothing.
    I have tried to install windows via USB like some people have suggested.
    I can not boot from my USB.
    Some people have said Bootcamp will not allow you to but there is a work-around by going into .info and editing in my iMac version via textedit, which I have done.
    Still can't boot from USB.
    The USB has been formatted to Mac journal and all windows files copied from DVD to the USB and there is an .iso on the USB also.
    Still can't boot from USB.
    I have partitioned my Hard drive via Disk Utility but can't find a way to install windows on said partition since it never appears in Startup Disk.
    Starting to believe there is a conspiracy here.
    Please help.

    Hi genejitsu,
    Did you happen to find the cause of this? My Macbook Pro is having the exact same issue. Only my Windows 7 discs don't work and they aren't scratched and nice and clean. It's both the 32 and 64 DVDs that don't work.
    Cheers

    Home Premium cannot logon to a Domain, nor can it be set to try it.
    when you get the logon window, try hitting the three-finger salute )Ctrl+Alt+Del) twice – it may bring up the old-style login window – enter your credentials there.
