HP Photosmart install lost content in other programs!!

I installed an HP photosmart C4100 and found that all my Firefox bookmarks are gone, all the data from my Palm and Address book is gone and all the content from iTunes is gone. Additionally all the content from iPhoto has been moved into the HP photo files.
How do I get this back? The iTunes content is saved on my external hard drive, but is all this info still somewhere on my computer? No idea where to look.

Hi wombledog,
I understand your frustration with Solution Center no longer appearing on your desktop. With the newer Operating systems and printers they have replaced Solution Center with the HP Printer Assistant. Do you see the C309a printer icon on your desktop? Very Similar to Solution Center but with some added features.
You can also check in your program files see below:
Start button (bottom left) > All programs > HP folder >  C309a > HP Printer Assistant (set to desktop).
When you installed your software did you use the software CD it originally came with or use the software download?
I will watch for your reply,
Thanks,
HevnLgh
I work on behalf of HP

  • Help installing Windows ME and other programs on my K7N420 Pro

    I've got this issue where I've tried to understand why some of my programs don't work when I try various installation routines for my PC. Here's what I have:
    CPU: AMD Athlon XP 1700+
    Memory: 192
    Graphics: GeForce TI 4600
    Sound: Creative Live MP3+
    I have the following pieces of software:
    Windows 98/ME/XP
    nForce system drivers
    All original drivers for my graphics/sound cards.
    At one point I was able to run any game demo on my PC before I had to reformat my PC; every since I've not been able to get any demo to run; of course all of my other games/applications run fine.
    I've also had issues installing the nForce drivers. I've installed them right after installing Windows ME and after updating ME, mostly things are OK but there are issues.
    If anyone has any advice on what programs to install and when I would be very appreciative. Please email me anytime at: [email protected]
    Thanks,
    Christopher

    I guess my first question for wonkanoby is, in which order should I install the drivers after I have Windows ME installed?  My second question is, after those drivers are installed, what next, install the sound card driver? Oh, and when should I install the updates for ME?
    I also agree that I should be better off with Windows XP but every time I've installed it, I've had horrible system performance. For example, every game I have installed that works great under ME is slowed under XP.
    I currently have "Age of Wonders II" and "No one lives forever 2" installed on my PC and only AOWII is currently -- NOLF2 freezes on the first load screen. The demos that I'm trying to get working are "Unreal Tournament 2003", James Bond Nightfire", and "Asheron's Call."
    I also got the latest Live Driver 2 from MSI and used it to get the latest nForce drivers.
    The reason I had to initially reformat my PC was due to a virus that got to my boot record.
    thx,
    Christopher

  • Pdf content in other programs not working?

    I've tried searching, but was not able to find much, so apologies if this has been discussed already.
    Created an interactive pdf out of Indesign. Then, in Acrobat, added some web links around words, some around art. The links around text are underlined. Imported art (.pngs) that could be clicked (mouse over, up, down). Some basic stuff, nothing really fancy.
    In acrobat and reader, it's all peachy. Everything looks and prints nice, and all links work. In Mozilla, the underlined words now have rectangles, and the imported art has no link, no mouse up/down look. In Foxit, the text links are fine, but the imported art looks washed out. In Internet Explorer, everything looks and works exactly as it should. Is there a check box I'm missing to make pdfs work universally in products, or should I put a notice that it is best viewed in Reader or IE? I know that not all programs are the same, and some people have their preferences set differently that what I may have.
    Thank you.

    By the way, do not ever save an interactive PDF with Preview and distribute it. Only work with the document within Acrobat. Preview causes all sorts of corruption. If you did save with Preview, don't bother trying to edit it in Acrobat and instead start from scratch if you don't have a copy as it was before it was saved with Preview.

  • I have just installed LION OS but mail is not working. It says it is not the latest version? How do I install it and any other programs that did not make the upgrage?

    I believe there was an option to upgrade Mail and a couple of other things but I opted to not do it. How do I make sure I have all of the latest Lion software? Mail will not open because it is evidently Snow Leopard.

    Ha! Sorry, I meant to type upgrade!

  • Install BI Content - Revised Version equals Delivered (Changes lost)

    Hello All,
    In our 7.0  SP 22 BI Content 7.04 SP 03 environment, we installed BI content "before and after" with the default settings.
    InfoObjects which had been modified and activated now had a revised version which matched the deliverd version.
    The changes are lost in the revised version. The active vesrion still has the first set of changes.
    I have not seen this behavior since BW 3.0!
    We think we can manually copy the changes in the actiive version into the revised version for the second set of changes, but would prefer not to have to do so.
    Does anyone know how we can "copy" the active verstion into the revised version, so we can start our second set of changes with a "current" copy?
    Thank you for your help,
    John Hawk

    To restore the Revised version to Active version:
    RSA1 -> InfoObject -> Change -> Characteristic -> Return to Active Vwerion.

  • I am unable to open my Photoshop program after installing the entire Creative Suite: Premium Production 6. All other programs work, but with Photoshop it says that the program is "locked or in use by another user". I need this fixed immediately.

    I am unable to open my Photoshop program after installing the entire Creative Suite: Premium Production 6. All other programs work, but with Photoshop it says that it "Could not open a scratch file because the file is locked, you do not have necessary access permissions, or another program is using the file. Use the 'Properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file." Then I select "OK" and the next message comes up "Could not initialize Photoshop because the file is locked, you do not have the necessary permissions, or another program is using the file. Use the 'Properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock this file. I installed all of the programs on the same day from a CD. I need this fixed immediately.
    I am not interested in switching to Creative Cloud, so don't even suggest it. I spoke to Mashmi (or something to that effect) on the "Support" Chat and there was absolutely no support. Useless actually.
    Thanks in advance.

  • I can't Start, Uninstall or Install new iTunes. I'm getting the same error message: Window Installer Service could not be accessed.  No other programs have similar problem. Any suggestion what can be done?

    I can't Start, Uninstall of Install new iTunes. I'm getting the same error message: "Window Installer Service could not be accessed". No other programs having similar problem. Any suggestions how to fix it?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • Can't re-install Photoshop, all other programs from Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard (DVD) installed successfully.

    My iMac crashed and once I recovered it I re-installed all my software including my Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard (DVD) but Photoshop simply won't install after 3 or 4 attempts. After the lengthy installation process I get a huge error message on Photoshop which I am pasting below. How can I finally install Photoshop? All my other programs are working. Help is much appreciated. Many thanks.

  • Firefox hangs and will not allow me to access other programs running when I resize a pop up window, move a pop up window, accidentally right click flash content.

    Firefox hangs and will not allow me to access other programs running when I resize a pop up window, move a pop up window, accidentally right click flash content.
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == Not sure when it statrted

    Hi.
    When this happens, please press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC and see how much RAM and CPU Firefox is using. If they're sky high, then... Well, that kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
    #run Firefox in safe-mode to disable all extensions and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
    #update all extensions and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
    #disable all extensions and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
    #enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
    #you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons.
    Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
    #do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
    #disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix you issues with Firefox, proceed;
    #check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
    #check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas. Except make sure you've followed my instructions correctly.

    Thanks for the help. I installed CC and it fixed everything but Photoshop. I guess I will have to use my old laptop for images until Adobe fixes the problem. Do you know of a place where we can send issues like these to Adobe?

  • When I install Reader 11.0.1 it "takes over" other programs

    I used the Reader for a long time on my laptop before - a few months ago - it began to "colonise" my system, producing the symbol by many of my other programs (including Internet Explorer and Word) and preventing me from opening these programs. I eventually uninstalled Reader so that I could use the other programs. I have tried many times to install/uninstall, but without solving the problem. I am using OS Windows 74bit. I also have Reader installed on my desktop, where it works OK. The only difference between the two computers is the security: on the desktop I am using McAffee, on the laptop ESET. I have tried installing Reader on the laptop with virus protection disabled but with no positive result.
    Incidentally, I have another problem with Adobe Flash which will not install on my laptop, but perhaps I should raise this in the Flash Forum - I mention it in case it might be relevant to a solution.
    I would be grateful for any suggestions.
    Regards

  • Is it possible to install Fireworks CS4 without other "hang-on" programs?

    Hello gentlemen,
    The question at hand is simple indeed;
    Is it possible to install Fireworks CS4 without other "hang-on" programs? Especially Bridge CS4?
    See the problem is were running version cue cs3, and we simply cannot shift to cs4, cause VC CS4 is not recognised by bridge cs3. Hairy yes.
    Some of us need ONLY fireworks cs4, cause its miles better than cs3, but it automatically installs bridge cs4. And this kind of sucks, cause
    we cant use the cs3 version cue server after that.
    Big thanks for your answers!
