My License will Expire?

I bought this laptop out of Ebay and it came with Win 7 Pro x86, however the sticker at the bottom says it originally had Windows Vista so I started investigating.  I ran the MGA diagonistic tool and this was the result:

Does this mean it will expire and start giving me non-genuine messages? What can I do?

JB
The license is for a volume licensed network and must be activated by a server.  In short it is not a valid license for home use.
You will need to purchase a legitimate license

    Hi Guys.
    Would you happen to know if its possible for this message to be supressed? I have 130 users that access the database and I do not need this message popping up each time they log in.
    This is the messgase : WARNING - 1051287 - Essbase license will expire on: 12/31/10.
    I'm assuming its a server configuration that I need to change?

    Hi,
    I take it the users are not administrators, only administrators should see that message.
    Another way to turn it off is in the add in option, global > Display messages > errors.

  • Windows 8.1 pre-installed , your windows license will expire soon?!?!

    I just updated my Windows today when they prompted and asked me to update it and restart the laptop. After updating and restarting, the laptop suddenly notifies me that my windows license will expire soon and I will need to activate it in the pcsettings.  
    It then brings me to a page with two choices, activate windows online or enter new product key. I tried both options but the first one won't work and the second one requires a product key which I have no idea what it is. When I look at my system information, it says that my windows 8.1 is activated.
    By the way, my windows 8 is pre-installed on the laptop. Please help, I am a complete newbie in the technology field!
    This question was solved.

    Click in the Name column header to arrange the processes in alphabetical order.
    Find the process Windows Explorer, then right click on it and select Restart.

  • Windows licenses will expire soon

    Why do i need to register when the windows 8 is preintsalled....And after i sent to warranty to fix some problem,when i get back the laptop it was updated to windows 8.1 and after a few days...it was asking for activation key....why? ant i also sent an email to lenovo but doestn been replied

    Registering and Activating are two different things. Registering is giving Microsoft your personal information. Activating is windows checking to see if it is a legitimate install of Windows. Anytime you install Windows or upgrade a copy of windows to a new version you have to activate it. It normally takes seconds and all you have to do is click the link and maybe click a few buttons and that is all. Because your system was updated to Windows 8.1 it has to be reactivated. This is a Microsoft thing not a Lenovo thing.
    Have you tried activating it?

  • It is possible that Ironport will send notification when license is expired

    We have a problem that no one will remember when the licensing will expired, can ironport send email to notify user when the license is almost expired. If not is there any other alternative way like using third party softwar?

    This capability is already there.
    Make sure you set the mail relay under Network>Internal SMTP Relay
    Add an Alert recipient under System Administration > Alerts, and make sure they're set up for at least Warnings  (I get them all, and its not overly chatty)
    You'll get one at 30 days, one at 15 days, and one when they expire.  See the below...
    Also if you turn on AutoSupport (in System Administration > Alerts > Edit Settings)  and have it sent to an "Alert Recipient", it will send you an email with an XML data stream that has the expiration dates in it. See the below, specifically the "features" section   
    All of this is covered in the Online Help.  Search for Autosupport.

  • How do I get a computer to use one of my available licenses instead of the temporary license that I'm being told will expire tomorrow?

    My console says "Payment needed" on one of my computers, and that the computer is currently using a temporary license, which is set to expire tomorrow. However, the line above that says the I have 2 device licenses available for activation. How do I get that computer to use one of my available licenses instead of the temporary license that will expire tomorrow?
    Thanks,
    RS

    Something I have noticed with the iPad that it is possible for webpages to run as if they are in their own app.
    No, what you're seeing is the actual webpage
    For example, the BBC iplayer (www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer). Open this site in safari, add an icon for it to your home screen, then when you use this icon to open the iplayer it opens as if it is an app, it doesn't have the address bar or back and forward buttons etc.
    Actually, it does. Or should do, ay least. It does for me
    Also when you double click the home button the iplayer icon shows up with the rest of the apps (usually you just get safari there) and if you open safari and look at the pages you have open it doesn't show there. It really does look as though it is an app, although what I'm guessing is happening is that it is open in a new instance of safari.
    That's correct
    My question is, does anyone know how to get a site to do this? I'm assuming there are some meta tags in the HTML but I can't find any references to this being possible let alone how to do it.
    The site doesn't do it. Safari does it. All you have on your Home screen is the iPad equivalent of a webloc, a small text snippet containing the URL for whatever page you saved.

  • Product License Has Expired (new install, no previous beta)

    I'm trying to bring up a new computer and just installed CS3, which was an online upgrade to CS2. I'm getting the "Product License Had Expired" message, but I never had the beta installed (fix in Adobe Tech Note). In fact, this is only the second app I've installed (first was FCP2). I did a web search, but all 'fixes' I could find referred to having had a beta version installed earlier. Any ideas?

    Routine maintenance is imperative.
    I still advocate Repairing Permissions (with Apple's Disk Utility) before AND after any system update or upgrade, as well as before AND after installing any software that requires an installer that asks for your password.
    I have seen software installations go sour because the installer did not find everything as and where it should be.
    I have also seen software installations go bad because the installer did not clean up after itself properly and did not leave everything as and where it should be.
    This is just my own personal opinion and practice based on my own observations. Others may disagree and that's OK. I can only base my routines and my advice to others on my own experience and conclusion. I don't pretend to know why others believe otherwise.
    Repairing Permissions after the fact (i. e. not immediately before and after an install) seldom helps.; Try it anyway, though.
    ====
    Additionally, if your machine does not run 24/7 so that it runs the daily, weekly and monthly Cron Scripts in the middle of the night as intended by Apple, run Cocktail (shareware) as well.
    Cron Scripts are maintenance routines designed by Apple to run on a daily, weekly and monthly basis in the middle of the night.
    If you don't run them, you WILL run into trouble, sooner rather than later.
    Here's an excerpt from the Apple tech doc
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107388
    Mac OS X performs background maintenance tasks at certain times if the computer is not in sleep mode. If your computer is shut down or in sleep at the designated times, the maintenance does not occur. In that case, you may want or need to run these manually.
    Mac OS X periodically runs background tasks that, in part, remove system files that are no longer needed. This includes purging older information from log files or deleting certain temporary items. These tasks do not run if the computer is shut down or in sleep mode. If the tasks do not run, it is possible that certain log files (such as system.log) may become very large.
    Also, from:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106978
    The disk activity generated by find is a normal part of file system maintenance, used for tasks such as removing invisible temporary files that are used by the system. It is scheduled to occur early in the morning at 03:15 everyday, 04:30 on Saturdays, and 05:30 on the first day of each month.
    NOTE:
    There have been comments to the effect that Apple "fixed" this in 10.4.2 and later versions of the OS, but I have not been able to verify this to my satisfaction. The reference in the 10.4.2 release notes are far from explicit on this subject.
    = = =
    If you have DiskWarrior, run it regularly too.

  • Downloaded design premium installed now getting license has expired message

    i have downloaded cs4 in the past but this time i figured id try the design primium this time and i just got done downloading and installing it....(3hr process) and now i try to use it and it is giving me the message "Licensing for this product has expired" when i had cs4 it was on a different computer... please help if possable.

    Dec9 and Mylenium have hit some of the "high points," and posed a couple of questions. If you do a reinstall, this ARTICLE will touch on some of the things to consider.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - I think that it was aimed at Premiere Pro, but I seem to recall an Adobe Knowledgebase article on "license has expired." You might want to search this, and the PrPro forum, to see if my memory is correct, as that KB article might be useful - again, good luck.

  • Vision Evaluation License - Past Expiration Date

    Hello All;
    A word of caution if you are using LabVIEW 8.x with Vision 8.x installed as runtime: If you are using NI Vision in a runtime environment and have elected to use the 30-day evaluation license before purchasing a valid license, this is for you.
    The evaluation license version has a few quirks associated with it.  This caused some minor grief for me, and so I am passing it along.  The only way to resolve these issues (that I am aware of) is to purchase and activate a valid license.
    (1) Sometimes the license version will not always initialise correctly.  This has resulted in runtime application that may appear to be buggy.  If you are using the 30-day evaluation license, there is an additional toolbar that pops up, and you will need to select "Evaluate" if you do not have a license.  If this does not pop up, the runtime app may seem to work correctly, but guaranteed it will hang or do something weird.
    (2) When the 30-day trial has expired, do not count on a friendly message stating just that - sometimes you get it, sometimes you don't.  Or it may be that it will show up the first time and that's it.  I've seen both.  Point is, if your runtime program was working fine "x" number of days ago, and no longer is, check the error messages generated.  Chances are, there will be an "invalid IMAQ License" error in there somewhere.
    Anyway, as I mentioned, 30-day evalutaion license is great, but it may give you some weird issues.  The solution (and this has resolved all the cases I have come across - not that I'm an expert or anything) is to purchase and activate a valid license.
    This caused me a certain amount of grief in the past.  Hopefully it will help someone else out in the future.

    Yes, I've got the same too.
    The problem was with Vision 7. We have put NIVision.dll and NIVisSvc.dll into installer, but have forgot to call appropriate Runtime installer (or probably old version was installed, and then libraries with new version was overwritten, but not licenced). Anyway, all was good, without any nag screens, but after 30 days license was expired (also without any message). After reinstalling runtime all was OK.
    Question for NI - how to get license status programmatically in application?
    best regards

  • Evaluation license is expired...

    ....and i need an extension, but I can find no way to do this on the website.
    I've gcontacted our representative @ BEA, but it could be quite a while
    before he gets back to me, meanwhile I'm losing very precious development
    time.
    Thirty days is nowhere near enough time to evaluate an application server,
    and you don't even get the full 30 days when you download and install. My
    installation is 8 days old, and already it's expired. It was a 6.0 beta 2
    installation... I downloaded and installed the new (production?) version,
    installed it and still cannot start up.

    Unfortunately, the way that weblogic is packaged mandates that they update the
    download periodically to include a new license file... Please send mail to
    [email protected] to make them aware of the problem.

    So, this is development time during which I can't test the server. Losing

    The existing license was expired, after only 8 days. The uninstall didn't
    take care of it. Maybe they fixed the download.

    You're losing development time? How's that - it's an EVALUATION license.
    Download/install the product again and you'll get a new EVALUATIONlicense.
    The installer might be smart enough to not overwrite your existinglicense,
    so you might try to de-install the product, or at least remove the licensefile.

    I don't know if this will help or not.  I've been having a similar problem for a while.  After multiple attempts to update information directly on the Adobe site, I finally got my  license to renew just now after signing out of the Creative Cloud client on my computer, then signing back in.  It's not the first time I've tried that, it's the first time it actually worked.

  • Windows 8.1 message 'your windows licence will expire soon'

    Hi,
    I bought my HP Pavilion 15-n278sa notebook pc approx 2 months ago with windows 8.1 already pre installed. Just yesterday it come up that "your windows licence will expire soon".. i have not updated windows or anything of the kind. I looked through all my documents that i recieved with this pc, and had a look underneath but cannot find a product key for it. It says activate online on pc settings but when i click on that the expire message just reappears. Is there a way i can retrieve my product key number?
    Thanks

    Machines that come pre-installed with Windows 8 have the license key embedded in BIOS. For whatever reason your key is being rejected. Phone HP Support in your country /region to ask for assistance with this error. Worldwide numbers can be accessed here>> Contact HP

  • Help with adobe activation licensing and expirations and.... everything else

    I went to buy cs5. Because I was buying many for my boss who works at a government funded school, we tried using volume licensing with cdw.
    Our cdw manager was a total moron and kept giving us the wrong quote. Finally we got the right one and bought it, only to find out it was a bunch of licenses and we wanted the box product for at least a few of them. We have some computers without internet....
    So we were either gonna buy 1 box product or return them all.
    As usual the moron gave us more retarted quotes with products we didnt even mention!!
    Well we decided it was too shady and stopped using cdw. We went to the apple store to buy a few box products.
    We bought 2 student and teacher editions.
    then we opened one to find out you arent suppose to buy 2 education editions. Why? who knows. to make my life harder.
    Well we tried installing 1 only to find that you need to give in a promo code with a picture and information.... basically adobe wants my soul in exchange for this stupid thing which is now getting on my nerves. We needed it working a week ago!
    It also says that the student copies will expire... is this true? it will stop working?
    Now I feel like I should just go return both student copies to the apple store and buy 2 official versions with no stupid hassles. But who knows if they will take them back now that one has been opened!
    I'm pissed and hate the whole licensing thing.
    I dont know what to do but I need adobe working now!
    any help would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks!!!

    You will need to speak with Customer Service. This is a User to User forum. No official Adobe presence here. For what its worth I used to get excellent service from PC/Mac/Gov Connection.
