Trying to Reclaim Azure Subscription From Previous Employee

Hi,
I've recently joined a new company and have an MSDN subscription that was previously allocated to my predecessor.  I have gained access to the MSDN benefits OK, but when I try to activate the Azure subscription that comes with my MSDN subscription it
says "It appears that you have already used your MSDN benefit for a Windows Azure subscription".  If I click the "Go to the Windows Azure Management Portal" link it tells me "We were unable to find any subscriptions associated
with your account."  I've spoken to MSDN support who kept me on hold for fifteen minutes to tell me to "Try posting on the Azure forum".
They said it may be possible to re-allocate the Azure subscription to a new Live ID.  Apparently Microsoft hasn't heard of people leaving their employer.
I would appreciate any help you can give.
Thanks very much.
Siobhan.

  • Excel 2013 crashes when trying to open existing worksheets from previous versions of Excel

    Hello
    I have windows 8 and Excel 2013 on my system. I need to access previously created worksheets (in older versions of Excel), however, when I attempt to open them the Excel crashes.
    The is not what I expected from getting the latest version. I telephoned Microsoft who advised that there was a compatabilty problem with no work around at this stage.
    I found that the only way round it was to use an (download free) alternative non-Microsoft program
    http://www.openoffice.org/ and copy into the 2013 Excel as a new worksheet. A little disappointing after purchasing the Excel .
    Have I got this wrong or is there a Microsoft solution to this issue???

    Hi,
    Try the following steps:
    Open Excel 2013, and go to
    File –> Options –> Trust Center.
    Under
    Trust Center settings, select Protected View and
    uncheck all options under it.
    Restart the Excel 2013 to check the issue.

  • Trying to restore iphone 5 from previous backup---the restore is not completing so I'm not getting my pictures, text messages, or voicemails? What can I do? I know they are on the computer and in itunes..please help

    Anyone have any ideas on the question at hand...

    I haven't personally used it, but it's widely recommended so I suspect it's pretty good software.  If your restore is failing it may be the only way to access your data again.  And if the backup is failing because it is corrupt, even this may not work.
    You won't be able to find you information on a different computer unless you backed up your phone on it (and you can't simply copy the backup from one computer to another as iTunes won't read it on the other computer).

  • TS2755 I am trying to find a message from 2012 and when I load previous messages it only goes back so far then the program quits and sends me to the home ( main) screen. How can I find the message and get around this?

    I am trying to access a message from early 2012. When I load previous messages It will only go back to oct 2012 and then the program stops and kicks my to the home page. Anyone know how I can get to the message? Thanks.

    Try Spotlight Search
    1. From any Home screen page of iPad, drag your finger down anywhere on the center of Home screen.
    2. Spotlight search will now appear and you can search for apps, texts, or any other content you'd like just as you did on previous versions of iOS.

  • I just bought a used iMac and I'm having problems updating my apps from the app store! it shows that i am signed in, but when trying to update, the email of previous owner shows and i cannot change it! how can i fix this?

    how can i change the email from previous owner of the computer to mine?

    The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
    1a. If you don't own another Mac
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    1b. If you do own another Mac
    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
    2. Partition and install OS X
    If you see a lock screen when trying to boot from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
    Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In thePartition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. If you're installing a version of OS X acquired from the App Store, you will need the Apple ID and password that you used. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    3. Other issues
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're irrevocably linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
    When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a lifetime limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information.

    trying to hook up preowned airpoirt extreme. asking for password for selected wireless device.  would there be a password from previous owner?

    A "hard reset" will do the same thing.
    Make sure that the AirPort Extreme is powered on
    Hold in the reset button for a few seconds and the amber light will begin to blink more quickly. Keep holding the reset button when you see this for another 4-5 seconds and release
    Allow 25-30 seconds for the AirPort Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility and click Continue to follow the guided setup

    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 which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.
    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.
