How do I scan to my desktop with windows 8?

I have a HP 5520 all in one.  Ever since i got my new computer with windows 8, I've been having trouble finding my scans. How can I scan a pic to my desktop?  thanks for any help!

Hi,
Firstly you need to install printer software and drivers on your Windows 8 computer. After that, you can see an icon on desktop (or use Win  key and move to the right to see the icon).  Double click (ot touch) the icon and check "Manage scan to computer". Enable this if required.
Now, you can scan from computer OR from printer. I always recommend: scan from computer, this will give more options.
To can from computer, use the above menu
(a) Click scan a Document or Photo
(b) Put orginal on the glass face down,
(c) Click scan from computer, ......
(d) Click Save, remember where to save it.
Regards.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Based on your description provided, I can understand that you want to setup RDS server 2012 R2 and want information how to achieve that. If misunderstood then please correct.
    If yes, then there is different option related to setup. There are 2 option for configuring. 
    1. Role based or Feature based installation
    2. Remote Desktop services installation
    For normal RDS environment, you can use 2nd option and then perform Quick start Deployment where 3 roles can be installed RD Connection Broker, RD Session Host and RD Web access. After this you can also publish RemoteApp and can use. 
    You can refer following article for more information.

    You can either buy a CS6 perpetual license, or Creative Cloud subscription.  Both will run on the two computers you mention.  You are allowed two installation with either version, but they must be for the same user. There is a cheap as chips Photography deal that gives you Photoshop and Lightroom for just $10/month, and feature gap is ever widening between CS6 and CC

  • How can I make Thunderbird start auto with windows start-up

    how can I make Thunderbird start auto with windows start-up

    You can by placing a short cut in the windows startup folder, just like any other windows program.
    However if you do you are likely to encounter problems as downloading mail while the anti virus is still loading and the network is busy announcing your machines arrival to the network ( which might be a network of one) and any of a dozen other program are loading is fraught with risk of timeouts and server disconnections as well as error messages that make little sense because they are about something that is still loading.
    So the bottom line is sure you can, but if there are issues take it back out of there as a first step.

  • How can I consolidate my itunes music with Windows Media Player?

    How can I consolidate my itunes music with Windows Media Player?

    Ah, did you move your media files by hand? Often doing so will have broken the links from iTunes to them.
    The "missing file" error happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, one of its parent folders, or the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to Get Info, then click No when asked to try to locate the track. (Due to a bug in iTunes 12 you currently have to say No twice!) Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, a folder renamed, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions. If the difference between the two paths is an additional Music folder in one path then this is a layout issue. I can explain further if that is the case.
    In some cases iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps with Get Info but this time click Locate and browse to the lost track. It may then offer to attempt to automatically fix other broken links.
    If another application like Windows Media Player has moved/renamed the files then the chances are that subtle differences in naming strategies will make it hard to restore the media to the precise path that iTunes is expecting. In such cases, as long as the missing files can be found somewhere, you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes. See this post for an explanation of how it works.

  • HP Deskjet 2540 scan does not work with windows 10

    my HP Deskjet 2540 scan does not work with windows 10, however, it still does eprinting. i need the solution and i haven't got it.  

    OK, More information.   Installed Media Portal 1.  This works with the tuner card without additional modification, so this appears to be some kind of issue with the software.  Media Portal 1 does install a different version of Direct X, I don't know if that could have anything to do with it, but HP MediaSmart Live TV still comes up with the same error and will not run.

  • How to use Time Capsule via INTERNET WITH WINDOWS 7 SMB Cloud

    how to use Time Capsule via INTERNET WITH WINDOWS 7 SMB Cloud

    Get a vpn router.. I have no idea where you are in the world but you can find reasonable stuff for not too much money or even a general router that takes third party firmware like dd-wrt can run openvpn. 
    Set up the vpn router in place of the TC, as the main router in the network. Simply bridge the TC and place it behind the router. It will be accessible as part of the network via the vpn.
    This is the only safe way to do it via windows.
    http://www.dyncommunity.com/questions/18132/accessing-time-capsule-from-windows- 7-over-the-int.html
    If you google around I have seen posts about how to access TC by port forwarding SMB on the TC.. using a different port.. To me this is going to slow down the hackers by a day or two.. then they will discover the open port and access your network.. not just the TC.. they now have SMB access to everything. Don't do it. There is very little security on SMB.

  • How do I view only the desktop with icons and the finder?

    I have a hot corner set up to show the desktop.. in Snow Leopard when I exposed the desktop and then clicked on the finder in the dock *just* the finder would show.
    Now, with Lion, when I click on the finder it comes into view but all the other open applications come sweeping back in hiding the desktop.
    Can I change this back to the way it was before? Or is there another sneaky quick way to show only the desktop and the finder? Set up an entirely different "desktop" in mission control dedicated only to having nothing open in it?
    In short: I need a fast way to drag icons from the desktop into folders in the finder. Also, this is driving me nuts.
    thanks to anyone who can help.

    If you can see a patch of Desktop, with a program (any program other than Finder) window active, hold down both Option and Command and click that patch of Desktop. This will auto-hide all windows for all other programs and switch focus to the Finder/Desktop at the same time.
    This works when going from any active program to another, except that the Desktop itself will not get hidden (open Finder folders will get hidden).
    To bring a program's windows back to visible status, just click the program's icon in the Dock. For open Finder windows which are hidden, just click the Desktop (plain click).
    If you want to hide the windows of just one program, with it the active program hold down just the Option key and click in the window of another program (the Desktop or a folder window counts for this purpose). All windows of the original program will be hidden, and focus will switch to the second program.

  • HP Photosmart C6380 not scanning or photo printing with Windows 8

    Just purchased HP M6/1125DX/15j with Windows 8. My current HP printer is an HP Photosmart C6380 All In One.  The printer does work but the photo part and scanning icons no longer appear that were on my desktop before. I tried to download the whole program that said would update my printer but after 6 tries at an hour each, at the end it just said my download was cancelled. Is there any chance my printer will be supported by Windows 8 and how do I do that if I can't download.  Or am I stuck buying a new printer? Thanks
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    The C6380 is supported in Windows 8 and has a Full Solution Download.  I would try using the Print Install Wizard to help download and install the drivers.

  • Photosmart D7160 connected to desktop with Windows XP, issues with new laptop & network printing

    We have a Photosmart D7160 connected to our desktop that runs Windows XP. I just got a new Acer laptop that runs Windows 7 (64bit). We set up a network to connect to the internet and so I can access documents that had been made on the desktop. I have not had issues using the printer off the desktop with any programs. I installed a creative program to create flyers, cards, etc onto the laptop. Same one as on the desktop. When trying to print off the laptop, I can not access the whole options on the printer. I forget the name of the options I want (maybe called printing preferences) but I would like to choose wether I am using the photo tray or presentation printing or economy printing, etc. I can only choose print.  That is not  good for printing cards, etc. I had made a recipe care template with that program and wanted to print one out.
    What have I not done in setting up my laptop? I tried the to "add a printer" on a network and that did not fix my issue. Any help is appreciated. thanks.

    Hi Bayratlj
    Dunno if you've sorted your problem out, but I had exactly the same problem with a HP Photosmart 3100. I found some advice on http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6201674 regarding the firewall on the Mac and yes that is the problem. But as you'll see with my last post in that topic I cant figure out how to keep my firewall on AND have printer sharing. Just allowing printer sharing in the firewall settings is no help.
    Cheers

  • How do I fix an incompatibility problem with Windows 7?

    Through the day, I have been getting this eror message:  Adobe Acrobat 5 is not compatile with Windows 7, which is my OS.  What should I do?
    Earlier in the day, I had gotten a certificate revocation notice about Acrobat.  Thinking it was an intruder, I did not allow it to make changes to my computer.  Now, I am sure that was a mistake but I am not sure what I need to do.   Sure could use some help.

    Thank you, Kglad and Mylenium.   It is Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.  It is just the version that came with my PC.  There has never been a problem before yesterday. 
    Things seem to be working OK but I feel sure I need that program to be working. 
    I have looked at what is available for upgrading  and I am not sure where to go from here.  I thought the update on this page would be right but it does not mention Windows 7.  Nothing later than XP.  http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=1309
    It also says.......Note: Acrobat must be closed before running the patch.   Can you tell me how to close Acrobat and if this is the right patch to download?
    Thank you so much for your help.  You are  much appreciated.
