After the trial period, you have to have the CD key. It will not activate
without a key.

No office sticker, just the one for the OS. I do not have the product key and
i really dont feel like paying 50 bucks for the Microsoft tech support to
tell me " sucks to be you, hahaha" and not have my problem resolved to get it
resolved for free by very knowledgeable people.

I just bought office professional 2007 and installed it OK but OneNote wants
the product key which I type in and type in, but it says it's the wrong one.
Please help!

Which kind of licence have you got?
Did you buy the machine with a *full*licence* or just a 30/90 days
trial?
And: Which *version/edition* of Office have you got?
(Standard, Professional, Home and Student, etc.)

OneNote has its own key. The key for Office Pro does not work for ON.
And: Have you bought a licence for OneNote too?
Office Pro does only include the following:
- Access 2007
- Accounting Express 2008
- Excel 2007
- Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager
- PowerPoint 2007
- Publisher 2007
- Word 2007
Pls see: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/suites/FX101674091033.aspx
OneNote is *not* part of the "Pro" Office suite.
It's contained in the " Home and Student", "Enterprise" and "Ultimate"
packages only.
If you only have "Professional" you'd have to buy OneNote separately.
Pls see here:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/onenote/FX102464451033.aspx
Probably not the answer you expected. But it's the brute reality of MS'
versioning.

I believe its full. i put in a random MS cd key that i found on another MS
software packaging and it worked but says the licences for that key are all
used. lol. new problem.

"Believe" or "know"
Over here in Germany we have a proverb
"to believe means not to know" <bg>.
Which version/edition of the Office suite have you got?
If it's Professional, ON is not included (pls see my posting of
yesterday replying to "metro mom".

That's almost always the case with keys from some other package.

im not 100% positive if its full or not sench i did not buy the software. it
was just there. After trying the key it told me i have something like 49 more
uses left before it has to be activated. this leads me to think its full. I
have Office Enterprise(PRO) but onenote is not part of that. All office apps
are 2003 edition.

Aha!!

YES, makes things harder!
Not as far as the "key" problem is concerned (which was discussed in
this thread) - I really have no solution for that.
BUT: OneNote 2003 was working, but it was - more or less - some kind of
a "first shot".
ON 2007 is ways superior - or better sad: it's a totally new application
based on the experience with the "first shot".
If you want to *work* with OneNote, don't waste your time with trying
how to get the *OUTDATED* ON 2003 going.
Get OneNote 2007 right away!
You may download the Trial version (fully functional, 60 days limit):
