Urgent: Paid Windows 8.1 Pro, need SHA1

Dear Microsoft,
I just paid and downloaded Windows 8.1 Pro (English), the downloading program from Microsoft store was:
OSGS14-WindowsSetupBox-32bitand64bit-English-4141408.exe
And after downloading, I chose to save the files to an ISO for later installation. The saved
Windows 8.1.ISO (default name)
Showed
GB (3,363,700,736 bytes) file (actually equals size on disk) size
I also used fciv for the checksums, with
MD5 = 5dcb564164cbb02c4e5aba667af123aa
SHA-1 = cfc9715ac825a6c5903da9e7c2d1a77f6d1108c0
However, none of the two checksums could be found on the Internet (with Google search). In addition, the
4141408 number of this download could not be found on MSDN subscribers. I would like to verify the integrity of this file. Could Microsoft people verify it?
Additionally, I would like Microsoft to provide a link to the published
checksum for the file for more confidence.
Thanks and regards,
Jim

Hi,
This TechnNet blog show us the way to download and install Windows 8.1 Pro,
http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2014/03/19/windows-8-1-tips-how-to-download-the-windows-8-1-pro-iso.aspx
We don't need to be worried about the exe if we download it from Microsoft offical resource, regarding to the MSDN subscribers you mentioned in your post, there are some downloads for Windows 8.1 Pro VL version which mean
they are available to Volume Licensing (VL) customers only, not for retail version.

Windows 8.0 pro needs an NTFS drive but boot camp didn't make one

Just got a new macbook pro and went through the steps to get windows 8 pro on the machine as well. all seemed to go well until windows asked which drive to install windows on. I selected the one i had partitioned to 50gb.
Error. windows needs an NTFS drive to install to.
Any ideas?
I've read some ways of "turning on" NTFS support on the mac book but as Apple doesn't "support" it, will I be putting my machine at risk for technical help from Apple if I do the command line stuff?
It seems pretty silly to go through all these steps and then find that the drive that has been partitioned isn't the correct version.
Any help gratefully received.
Shaun

You are not following the Boot Camp Installation instructions located here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/. You do not format the Boot Camp partition, you follow the instructions about formatting, especially the part about selecting the advance option and selecting format.

OSX 10.9.2/paid for Acobat XI Pro directly from Adobe for windows/English 24 hrs to process order?

I paid for adobe xi pro today directly from adobe. Had licensed version that expired. Got email with Serial Number and for Windows/English version.
Go to Adobe and cannot load, do anything because says my order "still processing and can take 24 hours". My cc online shows adobe paid. Adobe says I am supposed to be able to load same day. Not true. Obviously. WTF do I need to do to get this to load and work. My PDFs have been completely disabled even in read. Unreal.
Thank you.

AA XI purchase is separate from CC. If you got the serial number, just get the download from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html and install it. Please make a copy of the install file in case you need it in the future (it may not always be available).

Can anyone recommend a portable USB 3.0 drive with hardware encryption, compatible with OSX and Windows 7. I need it for my MacBook Pro 13", 2012, running Mountain Lion

Can anyone recommend a portable USB 3.0 drive with hardware encryption, compatible with OSX Mountain Lion and Windows 7. I need it for my MacBook Pro 13”, 2012, running Mountain Lion & Windows 7 Ultimate - BootCamp. I’ve heard that the Buffalo MiniStation Encryption does not work with OSX, is that true..? I'd like it to work with both operating systems, using the built in hardware encryption. Thanks

Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
   1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows
         XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. For Boot Camp
         4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
         instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
         installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
         installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the
         computer into OS X or Windows.
     2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
         Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software
         virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
         with OS X.
     3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
         or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that
         enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
     4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
         applications without having to install Windows. The
         Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
     5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
         as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
         It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
         Fusion.
Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Benchmarks of all of the above except Crossover can be found in Benchmarking Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox Against Boot Camp - The Mac Observer. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

Clean installation of windows 8.1 pro on Thinkpad e550 activation problems.

I have installed a SSD hard drive and need a clean instalations of windows for development using multiple platforms.
My plan was to have a tri-boot on three partitions on a mbr formated drive.
-Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit;
-WIndows 8.1 Pro 32bit, and;
-WIndows 7 Ultimate 64bit using downgrade rights.
The following steps were used:
1. Switching the hard drive and cloning the oem copy to the first partition;
2. Activate windows getting the OEM key from the system (so I had no hardware changes);
3.Use the anytime upgrade in the system properties to upgrade to pro;
4.Clone the windows 7 OS from the old PC and place in on a partion;
5.Download both install media for windows 8.1 Pro from MS Creating Install media;
6. Create media as detailed here;
7. Modify the install to allow entry of key after install as shown here because pro license and oem keys where not acepted during install;
8.Went to BIOS. Turned on Legacy and disable secure boot;
9.Install Windows 8.1 both versions, and;
10. Repair boot to load all three OS.
Good, Now I have all three OS installed all working. However, The pro product key will not activate the windows 8.1 pro and the oem key won't be acepted saying it is the wrong version of windows.
So called MS activation line and they say i need to contact the OEM for activation and downgrade keys for 7 even though i paid for the upgrade through the MS store and the product was already activated once on the system.
Questions:
1. How can i activate the Windows 8.1 pro via Lenovo?
2. How can I activate the Windows 7 copy under downgrade rights with Windows 8.1 pro?
3. Am i missing something with the UEFI/BIOS? (Note:I need to use mbr not GPT format on the drive.)
I have switch the UEFI mode/duel modes during install without success.

"Is a Win 7 32 virtual client an option?"
What VC are you using?
I use VMWare Player (free) and use it to create virtual clients as needed. Typically the virtual clients are "clean installs" from ISOs. VMWare has it so well mechanized that there's not much to it.
It's pretty quick and easy to install Player and give it a try. Another advantage to that approach is that there's only a single OS at the top level and backups can capture the whole mess w/out having to deal with 2 or 3 different OSs and their partitions.

Problem with Adobe After Effects CS6 on Windows 8.1 PRO

Hi Adobe Systems guys, I would like to know when the error will have the solution presented Adobe After Effects CS6 (Latinoamerican Spanish Version) running Windows 8.1 PRO, and throwing the following error.
I've tried the latest available update 11.0.3 but does not correct the problem. I wonder when will be ready the solution because with Illustrator CS6 also was the same but with the solution described in this page, http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/illustrator-does-not-start-windows-81.html was solved perfectly.
I appreciate prompt as we need urgent help to use the software in its Spanish version as was originally purchased. thanks

That such a friend, for I tell you that none of their solutions is an option for me because:
• Wait a couple of months with no after effects in the hope That a patch will come ... someday
R:/ The problem is not mine, is problem of Abode and therefore investing heavily in the creative suite CS6 and for that to be an option.
It's not fair to have to beg for a solution.
• Upgrade to CC and enjoy all the latest features
R:/ It is not possible , because we will not spend more money than they already invested in Suite CS6
• Use After Effects CS6 in English
R:/ It is not possible as the staff in charge of managing this program if it is not handled in English and therefore bought the suite in Spanish .
• Roll your computer back to Windows 8 instead of 8.1
R:/ It is not possible as it is known all Windows 8.0 failures we have put in 8.1 PRO .
I do not understand is that if Adobe Illustrator had the same problem and it was fixed within a couple of days getting the patch , why not do the same with After Effects CS6 in Spanish . All users of this suite CS6 and buyers deserve respect and prompt solution to the problems that are the fault of Adobe.

Upgrading my Yoga 2 Pro to Windows 8.1 Pro?

Anyone done this? There's no way I'm going to pay the £100 it asks for if I buy a new key on the machine, but I seem to be struggling to find a key that it likes. I've got paid-for retail Windows 8.0 Pro key that it doesn't like and also a "retail" 8.1 Pro key from my MSDN account that it doesn't like. It keeps just saying "this key won't work. check it and try again, or try a different key", which isn't too helpful. Bizarrely, with the same key, it did work once, but then got another error after it had started the upgrade. Anyone done this successfully without buying the overpriced £100 upgrade?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Wow, it seems mine did exactly the same thing! Such that:
1. It didn't accept the key at first, but this could have been a dodgy wifi signal I had at the time.
2. When it accepted it, it started the upgrade then got an error and stopped.
3. It would no longer accept the key.
4. If I went into System, it said I was still running normal 8.1
5. I manually rebooted. It said "installing new features" as it closed down and again as it booted up again.
6. It rebooted on its own one more time.
7. It now says "Windows 8.1 Pro", in System!
8. It's allowed me to install Hyper-V, which is the main thing I needed.
9. I'm happy!
Thanks!

HT3678 I have 10.7.4 Mac OS - just paid $32 for Quicktime Pro so I can convert a video file format got authorization code but cant figure how to find Quicktime let alone activate - HELP!

Just paid $32 for Quicktime Pro so I can convert a .MOV video file format to another format - cant figure out where Quicktime is and how to activate it to Pro
Is it the Quicktime player 7?

I did this and copied EXACTLY my name and the activation code sent in the receipt - says invalid
I am under a deadine for a presentation in 8 hours -
My problem is thet a person made a montage from photos and saved it as .MOV file format and the presentation is going to be made on a flat screen TV from a USB mem card or thumb drive -
first problem was card was FAT32 formatted - and I think I understand that for a 5GB file size that ExFAT is required and XP with patches or Windows 7 and Mac OS read this format so not a problem to format USB to be ExFAT - but the TV needs AVI or a MPx format
suggestions???
Thanks in advance

How to install window 8.1 pro on g500

Hello,
I currently have the g500 lenovo computer with the preloaded software windows 8.1. I would like to purchase the windows 8.1 pro version and would like to know what are the steps needed to do this and if anyone has done this what type of problems if any have you encounter.
Thanks

hi fishermanjack,
The easiest way to upgrade Windows 8.1 to Windows 8.1 Pro is by adding features. To do this, you will need a Windows 8.1 Pro Pack license. This is ideal if you wanna keep the OneKey Recovery function and other proprietary lenovo softwares.
I haven't tried this upgrade yet on the G500 but on a Ideapad Flex15 gave no drawbacks (drivers / softwares are compatible). If you have already added some important files, ensure that you have them backed-up first before doing the upgrade.
See the following for more info:
How to add features with Windows 8.1

Fixed the link for Windows 8.1 Pro Pack

HP Omni 10 5600eg: Install Windows 8.1 Pro x86

Hi,
is it possible to install Windows 8.1 Professional (32 bit) on the Omni 10 without problems?
Are there any how-tos available?
Regards
Andreas

Hi @AndreasN , welcome to the HP Forums. I understand you are looking for an instructional to install Windows 8.1 Pro x 32 on your Omni tablet.
If you are saying that you want to install a retail copy of Windows on it, I do not have an instructional for you and I have never done it on an Omni tablet. I cannot guarantee you wouldn't have any problems, but I can give you a few things you will need. Here are the drivers you will need:
HP Omni 10 5600eg Tablet Drivers
If you have Windows 8.1 DVD's you would need a computer to make an installation USB drive to get it on your tablet:
Create installation media for Windows 8.1. There are many other instructionals out there as well, if you need more info.
If I am wrong, and you just mean to do a factory reset, these instructions cover that: Recovering Software on Your HP Tablet (Windows 8)
I hope this helps.
