Renewal of Norton 360

I have paid for a renewal and attempted to install it but my Norton acount says the product has expired and I have a notice box saying my computer is not protected. Please advise.

i bought a laptop and with it came Norton but i didnt need to install it for a while. when i had to, it kept saying the product requires windows xp or later, and that it is incompatible. what do i do? will i have to pay extra for a new one or will the shop refund it because this is the Norton they supplied me with? 


What operating system did your laptop come with?

 

If the store supplied the wrong product for a laptop you bought from them or brought in and said I want the correct Norton Product for this laptop then they ought to resolve the matter.

 

However if all else fails Symantec has a 60 day warranty on its products and this applies to those bought from stores as well. Details of this are at

Over at the right side the middle icon "Returns & Refunds"

 

But please let us know more details of your computer in case we can resolve the problem for you.

Hi Silverdale,

 

Which Norton product did you renew? Did you get any email from Symantec informing your renewal was complete? If your renewal was successful then your subscription will be automatically updated and this should also show up on your Norton Account

 

Thanks.

Hi Wasim_m

Thanks for this. The product is Norton 360. I have again pressed the download button and pressed run, as instructed.  The initialisation box comes up and the instalation complete box but my account still shows expired and I have a warning box saying I am not protected.

If you have the Norton 360 Product Key, activate the Norton product using the key. Follow these steps:

 

Activate Norton 360 Version 5.0
  1. Make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet.


  2. Start Norton 360.


  3. On the bottom-right corner of the Norton product window, click Activate Now or Renew.


  4. Type in your Product Key.


  5. Click Next.


  6. Follow the on-screen instructions.


  7. When finished, review your subscription details, and then click Done.

You might try rebooting; if your subscription still shows as expired, there's a way to enter your license key or something off your subscription renewal receipt to update your account. I'm sorry to be so vague, but I don't have access to one of my computers with 360 on it (writing this from a mobile device) so can't dig back through my records or poke around in the software to be more specific. I did just have to do this (maybe a couple months ago) for one of my computers, though, so I know it works.

 

Good luck!

Ahh, cool--Vineeth beat me to the punch!

Hi Vineeth

Thanks for this. I have followed your list but I am still getting the unprotected message. The system now seems to have repeated my order, with different Product Keys and twice taken the money on my card, but I still have no cover. Is there no help line I could ring in UK to get advice.

Hi Silverdale,

 

As suggested by Vineeth, did you enter the product key for Norton 360? If you did and if you are still getting the product expired message then please follow the following steps-

 

1) Uninstall Norton 360 from control panel -(Select the un-installation preference to save all user data if you use Identity safe for your logins, if you don’t use Identity safe then choose to delete all the user data)

 

2) Login to your Norton Account and download your product from Norton Account and complete the installation.

 

Note - If you do not use Identity Safe for auto filling your passwords then you can also run Norton Removal Tool, download it from here , after this login to your Norton Account and download and install Norton 360 from there.

 

Let me know if you need any further help on this.

 

Thanks

 



Hi Wassim_m

Many thanks for this, I have now installed Norton 360 Premium Product Key folowing your advice. It's a pity that advice was not included in the instructions. However I ordered and paid for Norton 360 Product Key on 13Sep and Norton 360 Premium Product Key on 16 Sep, neither of which were installed for reasons I have described before. Can you please advise how I may obtain a refund for these two items.

 

Thanks

Silverdale
