Upgrade VAMT 2.0 to 3.0 OR use VAMT 2.0 to activate Lync 2013

Hi there,
Recently built a Windows Server 2012 server and installed Lync server 2013 standard. This is now running fine and I can install the Lync client on my machine and sign in. *as a side note we also have a Lync 2010 server but the idea is to decommission this
once 2013 is ready.
I've recently discovered that VAMT 2.0, which we have installed on a Windows Server 2008 R2 licensing server, does not like to activate Lync (or Office) 2013 via KMS or MAK keys. Our current Office deployment is 2010.
My questions are several
- Can VAMT 2.0 somehow be used to activate Lync 2013 (without Office 2013) either via KMS or MAK?
- If so, is that the easiest option or would it be easier to upgrade VAMT to version 3.0, but still use Server 2008 R2?
- If VAMT 2 cannot activate Lync 2013, can VAMT 2.0 be upgraded to 3.0 without a lot of effort, i.e. bring across all existing activations present on version 2.0 which we use for Windows 7 and Office 2010?
-Alternatively, can VAMT 3.0 be installed side-by-side with 2.0 allowing me to use 3.0 just for Lync? (I doubt it).
Thanks.

I don't use VAMT myself, I only use KMShosts, KMSclients, and a small number of MAK clients.
I seem to recall reading that if you have VAMT2, you need to upgrade to VAMT3.0/3.1 to manage Office2013 products (but I can't find where I read that).
Also note that you should export the data from VAMT2.0 as a .CIL file, since you would need to import that into the SQL database which is part of VAMT3.0/3.1.

  • Office 2010 MUI in Finnish and Save and Send function not working after upgrading to Lync 2013 MUI

    Problem is as follows. Used to have Office 2010, Outlook 2010 and Lync 2010, everything was working. People used it in Finnish and seemly quite a many of them used the Talleta ja lähetä (Save and Send in Finnish) in Office products.
    After upgrading Lync to 2013 version, with Finnish language pack installed with it, the Save and send does not work in Office 2010 if it is used with Finnish as display language. When you try to use it you get a Mapi error and reason is undefined or something,
    hard to say what it is exactly in english as the error message is in finnish. On those machines if the display language is changed back to english the Save and send works as it should.
    Any ideas? 

    The problem was caused by the Language Packs for Lync 2013 or Office 2013. Without them all works.
    And if you want to just unisntall the 2013 lang packs, then you also need to repair install the office 2010 ones to make it work again.

    Welcome To Discussions anja!
    In addition to Gulliver's great advice,
    Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).
    Panther, is no longer available directly from the Apple Online Store, as Tiger 10.4.x is the most up to date OS.
    A Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, or a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, can be purchased rather inexpensively, at some online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, AppleRescue, FastMac, etc.
    Be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
    Panther is only on CDs, not DVDs.
    Additional info in these links.

    Software Update, Upgrade: What's The Difference?
    Once Panther 10.3.x is installed, you can use the 10.3.9 Combo Update, to upgrade to the final version.
    If your Mac meets the System Requirements for Tiger, you could also consider installing that.
    And then use the PPC 10.4.8 Combo Update.

    I think you are sailing in uncharted waters with those kind of modifications.
    I am only guessing, but if you have not already done so,  do a PRAM reset and then trash your FCP preferences.

    I've also notice when I start the computer up, it stays on the grey screen longer than it did when I had the original card (512 mb).
    My understanding is the Mac is doing a ram/hardware test during the grey screen, if the card you added had additional memory, then it is very likely the test will take longer - but I am no hardware expert.

  • TS1702 after upgrading to ios 6 i can  no longer use the app store.

    after upgrading to ios 6 i can  no longer use the app store on my iPhone, i am unable to install new apps. i chose to fill out the security questions and the problem seems to occur since then. what could be a solution to get the app store working again??

    i just contacted apple support and the solution is the following!!!!!
    connect the iphone to your computer  and open itunes
    then click on itunes store at the left side of the screen
    then click at the right top side of your itunes screen on your email address (or id that is displayed there in the black bar)
    choose log out
    then go to the top of the screen with the search option in itunes where you can search in the store and choose an app that you have not yet installed.
    then you get the security questions also in itunes, fill the them out and after you have done that you are asked to log in again
    now when you install an app that works (it is then on your computer still)
    open the app store on your iphone and choose the updates button and install the app from the cloud
    now when you install new apps also from the app store on your iphone it works again!!! and you are no longer asked about the security questions
    (the other option they told me (that i did not have to use)  is: go to settings/general/ all the way at the bottom of the screen choose make new settings restore networksettings and choose yes)

  • Steps to upgrade lync 2013 beta version to lync 2013 rtm

    is there way to upgrade lync 2013 beta to lync 2013 rtm
    jitender

    Hi,
    If you are using beta product you cant in any situation to upgrade or to migrate to Lync 2013 RTM.
    The main reason is, on the Active Directory there are some objects and value that are not supported with both version together.
    When you will install and prepare your schema the beta version will stop functionality.
    Another thing is that the beta version is expired not?
    You can do something else and export your topology to tbxml file and using it on your new Lync RTM.

  • Trying to upgrade to os 10.8.5  I now use 10.75  Bot the upgrade and downloaded. But a warning msg said that I need 10.8 first.  So trashed the dload, shut down machine thinking to go back and start over.Now the mac won't let me try re-download

    Hi - I made a mistake, I guess.  I'm tring to upgrade to os 10.85.  I now use 10.75.  I bought the upgrade and downloaded it, completely I thought... but when I opened it to install it, a warning came up and said I need 10.8  in order to install 10.85.  So...after some thought, I trashed the down load and went back to the app staore to find 10.8.   the little box by the mountain lion image said 'downloading'/  Sure enough in a remote corner of the screen there was a little box that said it was downloading.   arrgh.   I'd already trashed what was downloaded in finder .   So I figured I'd stop the download in the little box (which I think was 10.8)  , turn off the mac.  and then reboot, and download the whole thing again.   
    Now, when I go to the mountain lion image in the app store, and press 'download'  It won't let me download at all.   ??What to do??

    Back up all data.
    I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
    From the App Store menu bar, select
    Store ▹ Check for Unfinished Downloads...
    You may be prompted to sign in. If that doesn't solve the problem, quit the application and continue as below.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    open $TMPDIR../C
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). A folder should open. From that folder, delete the subfolder named "com.apple.appstore".
    Quit Terminal. Launch the App Store and try again.

  • I have a new OS X now my Iphoto version 8.2 needs upgrading I downloaded 9.3 but I cant use it as I need a minimum of 9.1 how do I do this ?

    I have a new downloaded OS X now my Iphoto version 8.2 needs upgrading I downloaded 9.3 but I cant use it as I need a minimum of 9.1 how do I do this ?

    You can purchase the newest version of iPhoto on the Mac app store. Cost (in US dollars) is $14.99.
    It sounds like you downloaded an iPhoto update to take version 9.1 up to 9.3. You can't use it with version 8.x.
    Best of luck.

    Okay, now your in the right library.Use the plugin from this page to replace the existing one in your screenshot.
    (don't forget to remove the plugin folder and plugin you created in your user library)http://helpx.adobe.com/bridge/kb/acr-84-bridge-cs6-metadata.htmlThen you'll probably need to purge the Bridge CS6 cache.http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-6306475-630487/450-209/Untitle d-1.png
