KMS Error 0xC004F015 on Windows 2008 R2 - Does anyone have the correct fix for this please?

I am in the process of migrating my KMS server from Windows 2003 to Windows 2008 R2 64-bit. My Windows 2003 server has been happily providing my Windows 7 clients with licenses for well over a year. I have followed these migration steps in this
forum article:
social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/cd4177bd-8df5-4a66-afdc-c760398b7e7f/migrating-kms-server-from-one-computer-to-another?forum=itprovistaactivation
I cannot get passed step 5. As soon as I try step 5 with my Windows 7 KMS key I receive error 0xC004F015. Despite reading countless articles on Microsoft forums and also speaking the Microsoft licensing who frankly were of no help at all, I am none the wiser
how to resolve this fault. My questions are:
1. Should my Windows 2008 R2 server be licensed with a MAK or KMS key? Does this matter?
2. Some articles I have read suggest if you use a Windows Server "C" license then you do not need to use a Windows 7 KMS key. I've tried this but it just tells me I have insufficient licenses.
3. When installing my windows 7 license key via the slmgr /ipk command should I be using my Windows 7 Professional KMS key? This works fine on my old Windows 2003 server, but Windows 2008 does not like it at all. Would I be better simply moving my KMS server
to a Windows 7 desktop instead?
4. I also want my Windows 2008 R2 to carry out my KMS activation for Office 2013. Can this run on the same server as my Windows 7 KMS key should I ever get it to work
Hi,
on your KMShost, if that is a WindowsServer OS, you cannot use a WindowsClient (WinVista/Win7/Win8/Win8.1) KMShost product key, you must use a WindowsServer KMShost product key.
Further, the KMShost product key must match the OS of the KMShost machine (or exceed/better it).
e.g. if your KMShost machine is WS2008R2, you must use a WS2008R2 (or higher e.g. WS2012 or WS2012R2) product key.
If you will use a higher product key, you will need to install the relevant patch package to do so.
When you install a Windows KMShost product key onto a machine, the Windows KMShost product key completely replaces the previous Windows product key of that machine [it serves two purposes, (1) replace the previous key, (2) activates the KMShost feature].
So, your KMShost is neither licensed as MAK nor KMS, it becomes a KMShost.
For WS2008R2 KMShosts, you can install one of 3 types (channels/groups) of KMshost pkey.
The channel/group pkey you choose, is based upon the maximum product editions you wish to perform KMSclient activations for.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793411.aspx
For your issue #2, are you attempting to install your Windows7 KMS key upon the KMShost or a KMSclient?
For your issue #3, are you attempting this upon a KMSclient? (Volume License editions on Win7Pro or Win7Ent, are already pre-loaded with a KMSclient pkey, so you should have no need to alter the client keys). As previously mentioned, no Win7 key is needed/possible
for the KMShost, if the KMShost is WS2008R2.
For your issue #4, yes, your WS2008R2 KMShost can also act as KMShost for Office2010 and/or Office2013, this requires a further patch, and the installation of the relevant Office KMShost pkey.

Does anyone have the HTML code for the Buffy Font

Does anyone have the HTML code for the Buffy Font?

1) download one of the Buffy fonts @ font space, just as Hans-Günter wrote.
2) go to FontSquirrel, and use the web font generator: http://www.fontsquirrel.com/tools/webfont-generator
3) load up your buffy font, and generate the web font.
4) download the zip package, and check out the included demo file
Copy all the font files (all four of them) to your web folder. Then copy the code that looks like this to the top of your css:
@font-face { font-family: 'FontName'; src: url('FileName.eot'); src: url('FileName.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), url('FileName.woff') format('woff'), url('FileName.ttf') format('truetype'), url('FileName.svg#FontName') format('svg'); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; }
Check that all file references are set up correct, and use the font name in your css rules.
h1 {
font-family: 'FontName';
Done!

Does anyone know the default size for 24 in. imac display?

I inadverently changed the display size on my 24 inch imac. The font in the toolbar at the top of the desktop is larger than I want. Also, when I open windows in different applications, they open larger than the display and have to be downsized in order to see the entire window.
Does anyone know the default size for this display? Or is there a different way to fix my issues?
thanks in advance.

Hi Napamike2: The default setting for the 24" is 1920X1200. If that doesn't get you back to the proper display, maybe you have accidentally activated "Zoom". To check go to System Preferences, Universal Access. Check that Zoom is turned off.

My brand new iMac loses its WiFi connection when it goes to sleep, does anyone have a proven fix?.

I have a MacBook that is about 4 years old and a brand new iMac both are running the most up to date version of Lion. My old MacBook has no issues; however, my iMac loses its WiFi connection every time it goes to sleep. There are some discussions about this already out there but does anyone have a proven fix. This is very frustrating.

I was having the same problem for a long time. I tried everything but nothing seemed to make it stay connected. It was very frustrating. I just got a new Airport Extreme.....bang!.....all better. Problem gone.

Trying to down load but get error message.... "there is a problem with the Windows Installer Package" Does anyone know how I fix this??

My itunes ends up being so out of date becuase I can never upgrade it.
I have a sports kit and want to make sure I am using the most uptodate version
I managed to delete the old version, just in case it was the fact it was about 10 versions out of date that was the problem but now I can't reinstall it at all......
Please help

Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.

Why does it say "The configuration data for this product is corrupt. Contact your support personnel." when trying to install itunes64installer on my b4 bit windows 7 acer pc? Any help would be much appreciated...

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Resolved!
After contacting Apple, I received a reply from their engineers:
Copy QTMovieWin.dll from: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
to: C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
And that did the trick.

You can buy and install the hard drive you want to. However, on Late 2009 and newer iMacs the temperature sensor is in the hard drive, so if you replace it with a hard drive that has not got a temperature sensor you will have serious fan problems.
You have got an Early 2009 iMac, so do not worry about this. You can buy a hard drive at OWC > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/3.5-SerialATA/ Follow these steps > http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iMac+Intel+24-Inch+EMC+2267+Hard+Drive+Replacement/9 028

"Your computer does not have the hardware to run this software"

When I try to install Final Cut Studio, I receive the error "your computer does not have the hardware to run this software." I just purchased a brand new 13in macbook pro with 4gb of ram about 2 weeks ago. This computer is more then capable of running this software so what's the problem? How do I fix it? I just recently boot camped windows 7 on this thing just in case that matters somehow. Feedback? Comments? appreciate it...

final cut studio 5 I believe
There is no Final Cut Studio 5 (yet). The current version is Final Cut Studio 3, which includes Final Cut Pro 7. Final Cut Pro 5 is NOT compatible with IntelMacs. Version 5.1 was the first version to be compatible with IntelMacs.

The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship

When I try to log on to my DC it says "The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship". It won't let me log on. I installed another server server 2012r2 (its virtual )
and I can get to ADSI edit.
I think what happened was I had a pc that could not connect without unplugging the network cable. So I found this fix
FIX: “The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship”2032011
I’ve seen a lot of solutions, or suggestions rather, with regard to the error in the title of this post. In my experience, the problem can almost always be resolved without extra domain add/removes and reboots, which is the most prevalent solution I have
seen around. Usually, this issue is due to a mismatch between attributes of the computer account in Active Directory and those values on the system itself. Here are the steps I take to fix this issue when it crops up:
Open up Active Directory Users & Computers pointed to the domain the computer account resides in
From the “View” pull-down menu, make sure that “Advanced Features” is checked
Navigate to the part of your organizational unit (OU) structure where the computer account for this server resides
Open the Properties for the computer object
Choose the “Attribute Editor” tab on the Properties dialog box
Check the Attributes dNSHostName & servicePrincipalName – anywhere that a fully qualified hostname is specified (e.g. myserver.mydomainname.com), make sure that the entry matches the hostname
you have configured when you go here on your server: Start -> Computer -> Right-Click, Properties -> Change Settings (under “Computer name, domain… settings”) -> Full Computer Name
As an example, for a fictitious W2K8 R2 server whose Full Computer Name is “srv1.mydomainname.com”, these attribute/value pairs should be in Active Directory:
dNSHostName:
srv1.mydomainname.com
servicePrincipalName:
HOST/SRV1
HOST/srv1.mydomainname.com
RestrictedKrbHost/SRV1
RestrictedKrbHost/srv1.mydomainname.com
TERMSRV/SRV1
TERMSRV/srv1.mydomainname.com"
Not reading it carefully I add a computer with the same name as the pc having the issue and followed the above. The problem is that I did not notice that the spn did not want the name of my server (serv1) but the name of the trouble
pc.

Does Mavericks have the problem fixed with working with the Dell UltraSharp U3014 30 inch monitor?

Does Mavericks have the problem fixed with working with the Dell UltraSharp U3014 30 inch monitor?

I have this (or a similar) issue and I did notice something interesting. After I boot into Windows via Bootcamp (where I have the U3014 specfic driver installed) and then reboot into MacOS X (Mavericks) the monitor works flawlessly.
I would hazard a guess that this means bootcamp is retaining the driver used in Windows. Kind of the reverse of the TB GBE adapter driver issue.
To explain my issue for anyone else: the monitor flicks on and off as if the connection was poor. Connecting via HDMI. Connection is fine and as stated, everything works fine in Bootcamp.

This PC does not meet the minimum requirements for this version of iTunes

Trying to update my iTunes, the installer gives the error message:
"This PC does not meet the minimum requirements for this version of iTunes"
I have gone through the procedures listed in the support section, and have completely removed all Apple software, deleted the file folders etc etc.... still no joy.
This is most annoying as I've just received my brand new iPhone 6+ and I was trying to backup my old device to iTunes so I could restore it onto the new phone and get using it today. Hacked off big time :-\

Well I've eventually managed a work-around. Ver. 11.5.1 was no good because it wasn't compatible with my iphone 5, next one wasn't compatible with my iphone 6+, eventually got 11.4 installed so I could back up my old iphone 5 to it, then restore that backup onto my iphone 6+, which then wasn't up to date with the current iOS so I had to do that before it would sync my apps.
What a ball ache.
If someone would kindly let me know when the latest iTunes works again I's appreciate it, until then I'll have to stick with what I've got.
I need to start again with my music collection, re-import everything and get it on my iphone, because I had to delete it all a few months ago when iOS updated because it didn't have enough storage space on the device! Somehow lost it all off my iTunes in the process!
TBH I've always found the Apple system hideously complicated and infuriating when it doesn't work properly. Instead of making it more and more complex it needs simplifying and making fool-proof so people don't have to go through all this BS just to use their **** phone!

Your system does not meet the minimum requirement for this update (9996)

Hi
recently had to reformat my system with windows 7 profesional. All windows updates where performed and all the drivers where installed correctly except the ethernet driver. windows 7 cannot find a suitable driver. I then downloaded the driver from the link provided on the hpe-590t download site, which is described as a intel gigabyte driver sp52222, however the software driver comes up with the following message your system does not meet the minimum requirement for this update (9996). Has anyone had a similar problem.
Hardware Ids are:

I solicited the the assistance of another one of our experts who is a driver guru, you may see his reply here:

I tend to agree that either the NIC is bad or possiblly a factory restore would help.
Please mark my post as SOLVED if it has resolved your problem. It helps others with similar situations.
