Another Windows Installer problem

Posted: 07 Jul 2008 04:32 PM PDT

I did figure that out and I was running it as administrator.
I tried opening an office app from safe mode and received the following
message
The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if the
Windows Installer is not correctly installed, Contact your support personel
for assistance.
It would not load the program.

One other issue I have found is that the search function seems to be broken
as well. I am getting a message this file does not have a program associated
with it for performing this action. Create ab association in the Set
Associations control panel.

NewEgg (after hours of calls to Acer and Microsoft) has agreed to give me a
refund since it is obvious that what I was sent is not what I ordered and
paid for. I disputed the purchase so that they won't even get the benefit of
my money while they dither over the refund.

Problem entering my product ID into the registration window

Posted: 06 Jul 2008 02:28 PM PDT

It should be on a yellow and white label that says Product key and has a
little picture of a key. (I'm looking at a Vista box and making an
assumption that Office keys are in the same location.) Open the case, turn
it around, the label should be stuck to the back of the inner section.)

How do I keep my documents private in microsoft office word

Posted: 05 Jul 2008 10:01 PM PDT

In addition to the other suggestions, you can buy a little USB drive.
They are cheep, small enough to stick in your pocket and if you secure the
device you data is secure. You can use it on almost any modern computer.

A Media License Kit (MLK) must be acquired separately before you can use the software.
Contact the manufacturer of your new computer for assistance.

I am having the same problem with an Acer laptop. The auth card (included)
clearly says "Because you are buying a Microsoft Office Ready PC, you new PC
has Microsoft Office Small Business 2007 preinstalled. The key on the front
of this card is the product key." But no SBO shows to be installed. The
only authorization screen is for the trial - no instructions to get to the
other. NewEgg says 'not our problem' and MS wants to charge me more money.
HELP!!

installing 2nd office 2003 license on laptop fails

Posted: 04 Jul 2008 02:55 PM PDT

DL

Your suggestions got me started.

The installation completed, but no software was visible because I still had
to cancel out the Product Key pop-up.

After that I did a repair installation. It seemed to work. When I clicked
on activate it said the product was already activated.

Thanks very much.

Customize Office 2003 installation not working properly

Posted: 04 Jul 2008 01:14 AM PDT

Hi Bob

Thanks for your reply.

I just added the UNC path to SP3 and added the neede parameters. I have read
the link before and it doesn't help me.

I have just tried extracting all the files from the original SP3.exe file
and when I run ohotfix.exe manually it updates Office without any problems. I
then added the extracted SP3 files and ohotfix.* to the .MST file.
After adding the files and doing a new installation with the new .MST file I
found some ohotfix logfiles and I can see that the ohotfix failes because
Windows Installer is already running, and it's running because of the Office
installation :-)

How do I add SP3 to the actual Office 2003 source files?

my product key is not working. if i enter.

Computer manufacturers often install a trial version of Microsoft Office.
If you are getting a prompt to type in a Product Key when opening a Microsoft
Office program, it is likely the trial period is over and you'll need to purchase a
license (product key) for Microsoft Office.

The product key affixed to your computer is for Windows Vista (the operating system)
and not for Microsoft Office.

Please review the following:

2007 Office suite or program installed:

Wipe your hd, why?
After you reinstalled win, did you then install your drivers, and not from
winupdate.
Did you then run winupdate, before trying to install anything else?

If the machine you are attempting to upgrade does not have at least XP SP2
installed the error message is NOT bogus. You need SP2 or later for XP to
install Office '07.
