Satellite S50D-A-10G - Windows cannot activate at this time

Good Afternoon One & All
Can anybody help or advise me please on a few issues that I am having.
I have a Toshiba Satellite S50-D, which I bought from Laptop Outlet Ltd through Amazon in Setember 2014.
Was really happy with it until recently.
I activated Windows 8.1 when I first received it but just lately I am getting messages saying that I need to activate Windows.
This I have tried to do several times & each time that I do the screen shows that " Windows cannot activate at this time please try later " I dont get get a telephone option to phone, and so am confused as to why I am being asked to re-activate.
I tried to contact the vendor who told me to contact Microsoft, this I did & was told that the product key that came with my laptop is for Windows7 or Windows 8 not 8.1, he told me to get in touch with Toshiba for a new Product code,this I did & after an hour on the phone where the Toshiba engineer remotely went through my laptop informed me that I have a trojan (which Norton nor Eset Nod 32 discovered BTW) & that he could sell me an AV software for 99, at no point did he try to give me any advise on why the product ID would not work nor did he try to give me another code to try.
Is anybody else out there finding that they are being asked to re-activate Windows 8.1 which comes pre-installed on their laptops or anyone who knows how to fix this issue?
Sorry for the long winded post, but needed to vent as getting quite frustrated & dont really want to take laptop back to factory settings & lose all my stuff.

Hi Stephen.
Just some essential information:
the notebook was preinstalled with Win 8.1 64bit OS.
This OS is preconfigured and will be activated automatically connection the notebook to internet for the first time!
More info:
Windows 8 has not been automatically activated after the first boot of your new Notebook
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2A03ET0000R01.htm
if the system cannot be activated even connection to the internet, perform the HDD recovery and try again.
You said you are novice: well, the notebook contains preinstalled user manual. I recommend you to read the whole document.
There you can find necessary and useful info about the notebook.

    I am unable to delete the last backup from icloud, i checked my all device setting but it still say "cannot delete icloud this time because it is in use,"Please tell me what should i do                             

    It still didn't work...
    Within this commonfiles\apple folder, there is only one folder, labeled "Internet Services." Within this folder, there are 6 folders, labeled:
    APLZOD.resources
    BookmarkDAV_client.resources
    CoreDAV.resources
    iCloud.resources
    iCloudServices.resources
    ShellStreams.resources
    Within all but CoreDAV and BookmarkDAV_client, there are multiple different folders, all labeled starting with a two letter (acronym I believe, for different languages) then .lproj (for example, a folder is labeled "ar.lproj".
    In each of the folders of APLZOD.resources, there is a file labeled "APLZODlocalized.dll."
    In all of the folders containing the multiple .lproj folders, there are likewise "name"localized.dll files contained.
    In the BookmarkDAV_client and Core DAV folders, they each contain only one file, "Info.plist"
    I attempted to delete all of these files, and still, the FileAssassin could not delete them. I unlocked one of them for instance, and I tried to delete the file myself (thru windows explorer and just clicking delete), and I still had the same issue of coming eventually to the window requesting me to "try again" to have permission.
    What can I do?? I'd like to avoid Unlocker, but if it really is a reliable and SAFE program, and someone knows a SAFE place to download it from, I'd appreciate it very much so!!
    thanks!!

  • I currently have a 3Gs running 4.2.1... i did an update to 6.2.1 but it wont finish.  The message cannot complete at this time try again in a few minutes. i tried wifi and itunes but wont work

    I currently have 3GS 4.2.1 trying to update to 6.2.1. It did the update but i cannot finish the update.  i get a message saying cannot do at this time please try again in a few minutes.  I tried wifi and itunes... but still wont work. Please help

    That's usually because a) you do not have a SIM card in the phone, or b) the phone was hacked to unlock it.

    ok so the download problem with my iphone.. what could be the cause of that? ive restarted and deleted the "undownloaded app" over 10 times already. and restarted the iphone 10 times... next thing i know i cant install itunes on my laptop.... geez man..
    obviously there is a fix which someone will help... but why should i have to go through all that crap to install a so called uncomplicated software... when you think about it this really shouldnt even be an issue.
    normally if the thing dosent work. normally with most programs you just uninstall the uncompleted software and just reinstall and everything is usually good to go.. help!

    ive never had any problems with ap[ple products in the past... this is a first and a stupid problem if you ask me

  • Nothing will download from itunes to my iPad.  Error message saying cannot download at this time.

    Purchased a movie from itunes and it can't download.  Says it cannot download at this time.  Tried just a song and got the same message. Tried on another ipad and got the same message.  Apps download from the app store without any problem.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • Purchased movie in iTunes but "cannot load at this time"

    Using my iPad, I purchased a movie on iTunes (through the iTunes app).  Purchased was confirmed.  The movie appears in my "Videos" app, but it will only play if I am connected to my wifi.  If I go to iTunes it will show up as a "Purchased" movie and even give me the option to download.  I have selected this option several times but each time I get a message about 2/3 of the way through that says "cannot load at this time."  I want to be able to watch this movie without a wifi connection. A couple of potentially relevant facts:  I have a 3rd generation, wifi only, 64 GB.  I have plenty of storage available. I do everything on the iPad only (I do not go onto iTunes using a laptop/desktop).  I purchased a different movie only a few days earlier and I did not have this problem.
    A friend suggested that I need to delete the movie from my "Videos" app library on the iPad and then try to download again but I'm afraid the purchase will then be gone.  Will this work or are there any other suggestions? 
    Thanks

    This is probably due to a loss of internet connection. Update the apps on your computer in iTunes, and then sync your device. This should fix the problem. Next time you update your apps, make sure you stay in a wi-fi zone.

    Are you trying to restore via itunes or icloud? Which ever one you're doing, try the other.
    Its most important to make sure itunes is updated, any security software is disabled, and to try another usb port/cord (if using itunes on a computer)

    If all else fails, try another computer. (or network, if using icloud).

  • HT1725 I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest of the songs keep trying to download and then come up with an error saying they cannot download at this time. I'm not sure what the issue is.

    I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest keep trying to download, but I keep getting a message that says, "Song cannot be downloaded at this time. Do you want to retry or be done." Each time I retry, the same thing happens. They will not download. I have restarted my phone and the same problem remains.

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over a number of days.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting it from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

    1. Make sure iPad is using the latest software
    2. Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
    3. Make sure Time Zone is correct
    4. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.
