X220 came with Win7 Pro and Home Premium license sticker. Is it possible to reinstall Win7 Pro?

I seem to have an unusual problem.
My X220 came with Windows 7 Pro OEM.
But the license sticker behind my battery is for Windows 7 Home Premium.
I tried to retrieve my Win7 Pro key, but it does not allow me to activate a new installation of Win7 Pro.
Does it mean that I can only reinstall Win7 Home Premium?!
Thank you in advance.

Hello,
Have you tried (1) looking up the Windows 7 Professional product ID key using a program like Nirsoft's ProduKey, Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder, NSasoft Product Key Explorer, WinKeyFinder, SterJo KeyFinder and so forth; and (2) making backup recovery media using Lenovo's tool to do so?  If so, you should be okay as long as you store these two in a safe location.

    Your wifi problem sounds very much like the problem I had. The wifi would drop out, the icon showed it was still connected. If I turned it off, I couldn't turn it back on. Another user here pointed me to the problem, which was the wifi cable (the flat cable goint from the card to the motherboard). I found it on ebay for $13 and it's been running fine since I replaced it. This is the repair guide for your machine. The part number will be on there if you click the link.

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

    lost my application dvd that came with macbook pro, early 2011. any alternatives to get the applications in that??

    I'm not sure how this is an iTunes issue, but anyway, other than buying the apps from the Mac App Store (note that iDVD and iWeb are not available via the App Store), the only alternative is to call Apple support and give them the serial number of your Mac. They can usually sell you a new disk set for a reasonable fee.

  • TS4009 I seem to have 2 iCloud accounts with different names - a free storage that came with my Macbook and one I used when I bought some iCloud space. How can I cancel the free account?

    I seem to have 2 iCloud accounts with different names - a free storage that came with my MacBook and one I used when I bought some iCloud space. How can I cancel the free account? Because of this I can't access iMatch and the ICloud account I paid for on my MacBook
    Any ideas cos its frustrating that I can't access something I paid for!

    Sign out of the account you do not wish to use, sign into the one that you do wish to use.

  • My iPod touch 4th gen. Won't charge with a enercell charger that I've used since December. It will only charge with the apple USB cord that came with it. And even the takes it about 6 sec. To realize its charging. Help me fix this?

    Yes, I've been using it for months. And I can charge other devices with it. (my iPhone) but something weird just happened..... I kept on pluging it in the iPod and sometimes it would start to chàrge then sometimes it won't charge. Charges every time with the iPhone though.

  • If you dont have the sim card that came with the iphone and you resync it how do you get it to turn back on .?

    if you dont have the sim card that came with the iphone and you resync it how do you get it to turn back on .?

    You have been syncing the iPhone with iTunes on your computer without a SIM card inserted in the iPhone for how long?
    If the iPhone says connect to computer, this means there is a problem with your iPhone that requires restoring the iPhone with iTunes. As already provided, not having a SIM card inserted in an iPhone does not prevent or shouldn't prevent syncing the iPhone with iTunes. Depending on the iPhone model, it is required in order to restore the iPhone with iTunes.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3406
    To re-activate an iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS that displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen:
    Insert a SIM card from the carrier with which you used your phone. Note: If you are using the same carrier, you can use the activated SIM card from your new device to do this. If your device is unlocked by your carrier, you can use any SIM card.
    Connect the iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS to iTunes on a computer connected to the Internet.
    iTunes will then activate the device. You can remove the SIM card at this point and use the iPhone as if it were an iPod touch.

  • My iPad screen has gone black.  I have tried resetting it with the sleep and home buttons and it only flashes the apple on the screen for a nano second and then it goes black again.  I can even hear notifications arriving, but I cannot see anything...

    My iPad screen has gone black.  I have tried resetting it with the sleep and home buttons and it only flashes the apple on the screen for a nano second and then it goes black again.  I can even hear notifications arriving, but I cannot see anything...I'd rather not reset it to the factory settings as I have a lot of things I worry about using.  Either way seems to me that the system itself is working since I can hear it working, but its the screen that isn't.  It has not been dropped and has been in a case for years!  Please help!

    When the power is on and I press the home button, I can slide my finger where the slider bar "would be" and it makes the noise as if its "opening" flashes a blue screen then returns black...

  • Wann sync iPhone with work PC and home PC

    Hi,
    please help!!! Wanna sync my iPhone with work PC and home PC without deleting always the whole content on it.
    thanks

    The iphone will sync itunes content and pics with one and only one computer at a time. If you sync itunes content and/or pics to another computer, then the itunes content and pics ( photo album) will first be erased from the iphone, then replace with content from the new computer.
    What is it that you are trying to sync?
