Product Registration Key with Acamdemic Licenses will not work
Frustrated Proj 6/21/2007 8:04:01 PM
I purchased Office 2007 under the Academic License plan. The first DVD that I
got installed the software but did not accept the product key. I returned it
the bookstore and they gave me a new DVD. I was told if that didn't work to
call MS. Will it would cost hundreds of dollars to do that. I simple email
would cost $99.

So I followed the instructions on MS's website to delete a possible
problematic file. That does not work. Does anybody the answer?

We have no idea which of the many Microsoft KB articles you may have read
and tried. Do you have any version of Office on that system? Trial or
otherwise.

Hello all,
I didn't buy under academic license, but i need to use Microsoft Picture
Manager in the Microsoft Home and Student version. However, The Product Key
found on a sticker on the bottom of my HP laptop is not accepted when I enter
it. The message I receive is that it is not a valid Product Key. I'm not
technically proficient, so I have no idea what to do about this. I need
picture Manager badly because I was in the middle of editing photos for a
on-line shop. Hope someone out there will be able to help. Thanks so much in
advance. kindest regards, nancyinvt

The product key on the bottom of your laptop is for Windows, not for
Office. If you are trying to activate the free trial version of Office
that came with your new HP laptop, and if your HP laptop is like mine,
then the product key for the Office free trial is printed on a small
square of paper somewhere in the documentation that came with your laptop.
