Reinstalled Install disc- New Microsoft Office serial number?

1. I originally had Leopard and use the install disk to downgrade to the original version of leopard because of some problems I was having with an online computer game. When I used the install disk, the employee who upgraded my RAM and the operating system (from tiger to leopard- since they had no computers with preinstalled leopard) gave me a tiger install disk instead of the leopard. This cleared all of my Leopard applications. Is there anything I can do?
2. Now that all this happened my Macbook is not allowing me to run the Windows that was previously installed onto my computer. What can I do? All of my windows serial numbers have been used already.

1. Anything you can do about what? If you mean install Leopard then you will need to erase the drive and reinstall it from scratch. If you only have a Tiger installer then unless it's the special version of Tiger for an Intel Mac you're out of luck. If it is the Intel version then you can install Tiger unless your model doesn't support Tiiger.
2. Serial numbers can be used again on fresh installations. You simply cannot have more than three installations concurrently if you have the Student Edition.

  • Which Microsoft Office Serial Number?

    When Snow Leopard is release I plan on performing an "erase and install." I know that the everything will be erased. I have used Microsoft Office from Office X, upgraded to Office 2004, upgraded to Office 2008. So after I do the clean install am I going to have to perform the same install routine (X->2004->2008) or can in just install Office 2008 and use the original serial number that came with Office X?
    I am using Time Machine. Could I reinstall Microsoft Office from it?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Robert

    Since Office X's compatibility with Snow Leopard is as of yet undetermined, an accurate answer would not be possible, until Snow Leopard actually is released later hopefully in September.
    Furthermore, you got the installation option for Jaguar through Leopard right the first time, it is "erase and install." See my FAQ:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=607614
    It remains to be seen if Snow Leopard has the same options.

  • My new iMac 10.7.3 rejects the installation disc for Microsoft Office 2011. What shall I do?

    My new iMac 10.7.3 rejects the installation disc for Microsoft Office 2011. What shall I do?

    A little more description would help. What exactly do you mean by Rejects the disc? Does the DVD drive eject the disc shortly after inserting it?
    Does the Office installer say something, like can't install on this Mac?
    If the Office disc is ejected shortly after insertion try cleaning the disc. Try another DVD disc of any type to see if it is the Office DVD or if the drive ejects all discs.
    If it ejects all DVD or CD discs then the drive is bad and you ned to Return your new Mac fro a Full Refund and then buy another NEW unit.

  • How can I install or use Microsoft Office on my iPad 4?

    How can I install or use Microsoft Office on my iPad 4?

    You cannot. Microsoft has not made a version of Office for iOS. There are however a number of apps that are compatible with Office documents. Apple makes iOS versions of their own iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, Numbers) that are available free if you purchase a new iOS device and that can be purchased separately for older devices. There are also 3rd party combined suites that cost less than the separate Apple apps. Ones often recommended include Documents 2 Go,  Quickoffice and Office2 HD.
    If you can accept needing a network connection whenever you want to use the apps and have an Office 365 subscription, Microsoft has just released their Office Mobile app, though it has significant limitations. Or a server-based solution such as CloudOn might be an option for you.

  • Acrobat fasils to open, cannot reinstall from original cd-rom, hsve serial number, stuck

    My Acrobat x stopped opening, will not run, on my Windows8 computer.  Yet, I cannot reinstall even though I have my original CD-ROM and serial number.
    I have always been able to reinstall software in the past but maybe Adobe has locked me out with their licensing hurdles.  Anyone know how to get Acrobat installed from original cd-roms and a serial number?

    Thanks for responding.  This forum is so helpful.From another suggestion, I went into control panel, Install/Uninstall Programs and selected to reinstall Acrobat.  Also, I found a fix online called AcroFix.exe which is reported to correct problems loading.Together the problem was fixed.
    Thanks,Jeff

  • Is it worth it spending $200 dlls in the new Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac?

    I am trying to decide whether to upgrade my Mac to the new Microsoft Office 2008. Is it worth it? What are the differences between the new version and the old one?

    There are more differences than would be practical to list here.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicrosoftOffice_2008_forMac
    might be a good place to start, as well as Microsoft's website for a full description of new features. ArsTechnica also has a review of it on their website somewhere too.
    Is there any specific reason for upgrading? If not, then I would recommend sticking with 2004. I went out and got 2008 about a month ago (student licensing, so it only cost me $40) and I'm not at all impressed. It's slower than 2004, even on my quad-core Mac Pro. The overall responsiveness of the application is sluggish, especially in Powerpoint. Dragging textboxes and other elements around the page, for example, is incredibly laggy and feels imprecise. No to mention Microsoft broke Endnote compatibility in Word 2008 as well, so if the Cite While You Write feature is important to you, forget about it. I'm sticking with Office 2004 and iWork for now. I don't feel so bad since I only spent $40 on it; no way would I justify $200 unless I needed 2008 for a specific reason (ie work compatibility, etc)

  • How can i convert New Microsoft Office Word Document to adobe

    how can i convert New Microsoft Office Word Document to adobe

    Hi itchigo,
    You can use Microsoft Word's inbuilt feature of converting the doc to pdf by simply selecting Save As> 'pdf doc format' from the drop down.
    Please refer: http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/word-help/save-as-pdf-HA010354239.aspx#BM11
    Adobe Reader does not have the capability of converting docs to pdf or vice versa. It can only be used to read pdf files.

  • I am getting the 'invalid personalization information' error when I start my photoshop cs8. I cannot find my original disk to re-install, but do have the serial number. Can I download a trial version and then enter my serial number?

    I am getting the 'invalid personalization information' error when I start my photoshop cs8. I cannot find my original disk to re-install, but do have the serial number. Can I download a trial version and then enter my serial number?

    If it is the first CS version then you will need to check out the following.  I believe it applies to CS as well even though it specifies CS2....

  • I have LR5 student on my iMac but need it on my laptop, when I try to install it wont accept the serial number I was given last Feb.  Does this mean I can no longer use/install this product?

    I have LR5 student on my iMac but need it on my laptop, when I try to install it wont accept the serial number I was given last Feb.  Does this mean I can no longer use/install this product?

    No, you should be able to use/install LR5.  Make sure you are using the correct number.  If the problem continues explain the details of what you do and what happens.
    You should try contacting Adobe Support thru chat and see if they can resolve this with you.  or the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

  • I have a purchased version of FrameMaker 10 - box, serial number, heck, even the CD sleeve, but no CD. Is there a way to download FrameMaker 10 so that I can install it and apply my serial number?

    I have a purchased version of FrameMaker 10 - box, serial number, heck, even the CD sleeve, but no CD. Is there a way to download FrameMaker 10 so that I can install it and apply my serial number? It would be nice if you had a service like Battle.net, where you apply your serial number to your account and your software is always available to you. (I realize the cloud direction makes this possible going forward, but older software would be helpful.

  • Purchased and downloaded/installed Captivate 7 but get 'serial number valid but' error

    Purchased and downloaded/installed Captivate 7 but get 'serial number valid but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer' error.  I have checked serial number, checked that I purchased correct version (7) direct and not an upgrade but the drop down list tha tthe window shows is only previous 6 versions and it is 7 I purchased/installed and is opening.

    Captivate thinks you bought an upgrade.  Adobe Support will have to help you. 
    I went through this (with an upgrade) but my qualifying product was also an upgrade, and Adobe didn't list my original product (CP2).  So there was no way to put in all the info. 
    And, just FYI, keep that serial number handy.  Even after Adobe Support fixed my Captivate so that it will run, every once in awhile...for no apparent reason...Captivate will start in "trial" mode and I have to re-enter the serial number.  It always works after I do that.  But, it's a pain so I now keep the serial number posted on my bulletin board for handy reference.

  • I have CS2 with the discs and serial number. After needing to have my computer wiped, reloading the discs, and imputing the serial number, neither phone activation or on-line activation works. What do I do? Lanny

    I have CS2 with the discs and serial number. After needing to have my computer wiped, reloading the discs, and imputing the serial number, neither phone activation or on-line activation works. What do I do? Lanny

    Adobe took down the CS and CS2 activation servers, but they put up a version of CS2 for those who previously had a license to it.
    You will need to download the software from here, and use the serial number given on these pages. Follow the directions on this link, and you will soon be up and running again.
