Change from windows 8 single language to windows 8.1

hello,
i just bought a new laptop a Samsung laptop to be specific and it came with windows 8 single language activated but i cant see the update to windows 8.1 i need help! please

Hi,
According to your description,you cannot see the update in your store.
If you’ve opened the Store and you don’t see the update, it could be for one of these reasons:
1.You might need the latest updates from Windows update.
2.Windows Store might not be showing the latest content.
Please refer to the following article:
Why can't I find the update in the Store?

Is Product key required in Updating from Windows 8 Single Language to Windows 8.1

Hello,
I have bought Lenovo laptop with Windows 8 Single Language recently and it's showing the Windows 8.1 update is available.
My doubt in this regard is, While installing will is asks for product key or not.?
And whether the preinstalled apps like office13 McAfee will remain or removed from system..?

Hi,
If your PC is running Windows 8 or Windows RT, it's free to update to
Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1. And unlike previous updates to Windows, you'll get this update from the Windows Store.
For more information regarding update to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8 about destop apps/ user accounts and so on, please check:

Need help restoring Windows 8 Single Language and updating to 8.1

To cut a very long story short, I have 2 PC's from different manufacturers. One is mine and the other is a friend's. Both came with Genuine OEM Windows 8 Single Language preinstalled. When attempting to update my PC to 8.1 from 8.0, it failed to boot so
I took it my vendor. They tried restoring 8, which involved wiping the HDD (incl. the recovery partition) and when they failed they installed a pirate Windows 7 and accused me of "messing" with the system. They voided my warranty :'(
I made a Recovery USB. My PC boots to it but refuses to install. Says "A required drive partition is missing" (Probably the recovery partition).
So then I came across the idea of making an image from my friend's PC to install on mine, after "generalizing" his PC: ("The Sysprep /generalize command removes unique information from a Windows installation so that you can safely reuse that
image on a different computer.")
Source: Capture an Image for Deployment (Generalize)
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh824938.aspx
But I still have some questions:
1. When my friend's PC makes the image, will I be given the option to decide the file's location (such as creating it on an external HDD)? If not, where will I find it if I boot the PC in a live environment (such as a Windows setup DVD or Ubuntu LiveCD)?
2. How large is this image (in GB)? Can I split it?
3. After completing, how do I "undo" the generalization on my friend's PC so it goes back to normal?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
PS: To Mircosoft: Please consider making the Windows 8/8.1 Single Language ISO available for OEM customers to download in case of problems. This will help us avoid these complex techniques.
Thank you.

If the system was reinstalled with a pirated version of Windows 7, the piracy can be
reported here to Microsoft.
For installation media for a system which was preinstalled by an OEM, the system manufacturer will need to be contacted. The operating system can also be installed from standard OEM or System Builder installation media if you have access to such media. If
the product key is embedded in the system firmware, the Windows installation will be able to use it.
For future reference, it is possible to include the recovery partition as part of the USB Recovery Drive, for which
the steps are available here from Windows Support. Similarly, the System Image Backup functionality from previous versions of Windows is also still available and
documented here on Windows Support.

Issues in connecting iPhone 4 (16GB) with a Windows 8 Single Language, machine?

As soon as I connect my iPhone with my laptop via USB, the phone seems to viberate again and again with short breaks
It actually gets connected and disconnected again and again! I can say this because the "Trust this computer?" dialogue box comes and goes automatically with the same frequency as that of vibration. The frequency of this is so high that this event of coming and going of dialogue box appears as a flash.
Inshort my iPhone4 is unable to get connected with my laptop.
I would like to add : there are no issues with USB port of my laptop (HP Pavilion) as it is able to connect with other "ANDROID" phones and is successfully running pendrives!
and There is no problem with my iphone also cz when i tried to connect my phone with my friends laptop(also Loaded with Windows 8 Single Language , but its a DELL machine), it got connected successfully even though itunes had not been installed on his machine.
SO, i feel the problem resides somewhere in drivers of itunes or windows.
Please help me to solve this issue.
Your advice, solutions, guesses or any kind of support is welcomed.
Thanks

Sorry @Allan, This did not help.
The issue is NOT with itunes, rather the problem is : Windows 8 is unable to connect with my iPhone.
Generally a computer even without iTunes is able to recognise iPhone and you can access photos on iphone via computer, after trusting the computer. But in my computer the conflict arises here only.

Can't boot into Windows 8 Single Language 64 bit or access the BIOS screen with the F1 key

I have in my possession right now a Lenovo E49, Model name: 3464
I am unable to access the BIOS settings at POST by pressing the F1 key. Neither does it respond to the Enter key when it displays the message "To interrupt normal startup, Press Enter". I am also unable to boot into the installed OS Windows 8 Single Language 64 bit.
For your informtion, these are the events that led to this issue.
I accessed the BIOS settings at startup using the CHANGE PC SETTINGS option in the CHARMS menu in Windows 8 Single Languge 64 bit followed by GENERAL and ADVANCED STARTUP. Then I chose Restart Now. Windows restarted to produce the startup screen where I chose Troubleshoot, followed by Advanced Options and UEFI Firmware Settings, followed by Restart. This took me to the BIOS settings screen. Once there I changed the boot settings in BIOS so that SECURE BOOT was turnned OFF. It was in ON state prior to that. I also changed the BOOT MODE to LEGACY ONLY. I also changed the BOOT ORDER to boot from DVD drive first followed by the Hard Disk and USB Hard Disk. I saved the changes by pressing F10.
Now the computer is able to boot from the DVD Drive. I tested this by inserting a Windows 7 Repair DVD and also a Linux Live DVD. Mind you, I didn't mke any changes to the Hard Drive. I'm also able to boot from a USB Hard Disk. This too was tested by inserting a bootable USB HD that had both Windows 7 and Windows 8 OS installers. I used only the command prompt feature in the Repair option on the Windows 8 installer to ensure that I could access the partitions on the HD. I did not in any way install Windows 7 or 8 on the HD.
If there is no bootable DVD or USB HD inserted, the laptop is involved in a loop that restarts followed by a message that says the following:

I am positive that the current state of the BIOS is such that it does not accept any input keys like F1 and F12 at POST so that the BIOS can only be accessed through Change PC Settings in Windows 8 as I had done prior to the occurence of the issue. Since I cannot boot up Windows 8 I cannot use this method to access the BIOS. And since it is not possible at this stage to access the BIOS settings through the F1 key, I believe Lenovo must have surely provided another alternative to enter the BIOS. Can you kindly tell me what other way is there to do this. In earlier days, one could reset the BIOS by shorting the BIOS through pins on the motherboard. Is that possible now? Or is there some Lenovo BIOS utilily that enables me to change the BIOS setting to boot with Legacy and UEFI? Or do I have to install Windows 8.1 64 bit in Legacy mode?

I'll see if another member of the team can jump in here and offer more help...
What I might imagine is that you can only access BIOS from a cold boot. Windows 8/8.1 have hybrid shutdown and don't completely shut down the machine normally, so even when it powers off, it isn't fully off and the next boot is not really a cold boot.
Please see this KB. I realize this assumes you can get into windows.
As you suggest, it also seems as though you have set legacy vs UEFI and that may be why your drive is not currently booting. Can you remove the battery on your system? If not, is there a reset hole on the bottom? Removing battery and AC and pressing and holding the power button several times, then re-attach AC and Battery and try to restart and press F1 to get into BIOS. (Not familiar with models that use enter for BIOS).

Windows 8 Single Language boot camp

I have a 10.8.3 with 8GB RAM and 750GB HDD and I want to use boot camp to dual boot it with Windows 8. In the article of boot camp, it says that I can install Windows 8 or Windows 8 Pro; but I could only find Windows 8 Single Language (for emerging markets only). Can I install it as well?

Hello, thank you for your quick answer. I meant to write "Single Language" not "Standard". I'm sorry
It differs from Windows 8 only by the fact that Single Language offers installs in only 1 language. I could not find a decent webpage to describe it, except for a sentence on Wikipedia.
Also, it is a full version, if I am not mistaken, of DSP OEI though.
