Hi,
Make sure to update the latest Flash Player for your PC (And not the Google Chrome) Plugin by going to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer via Internet Explore.

If the issue persists, insert the printer installation disk.
Open Computer, right click the CD Driver and select Browse.
Enter the Setup Folder.
Enter the SolutionCenter folder.
Right click SolutionCenter.msi (May be identified by its different icon) and select Repair.
Confirm any prompt or alert, reboot the PC if prompted to and check for any change,
If the problem still persists, please let me know what error you may get while trying to open the HP Solution Center,

  • Camera just up and stopped working with flash player. SUUUUPER annoying. Any ideas?

    Hi:
    Windows XP SP3 32bit, latest updates applied
    Firefox 3.6.6 (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100625 Firefox/3.6.6 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET4.0E))
    IE 8.0.6001.18702
    Flash Player 10,1,53,64
    HP EliteBook 8530w with built-in HP camera (brand spankin' new).
    So Flash Player today decided it doesn't want to work with my webcam. I have pulled my hair out trying to figure out what the problem is. The camera works fine with other video camera software, such as Adobe Flash Live Encoder 3.1, for example, or the various Microsoft cam tools. But Flash Player just won't see it. When I visit a website that uses the camera through flash, all I get is a black box. I never get the privacy screen that asks me if I would like to allow the site temporary access to my camera.If i go into my settings, and go to the camera tab, it shows my camera device in the dropdown box. But you know how if you double-click the little box under the dropdown, it should activate your camera and display a little video inside that box? That doesn't work for me. All I get is this:
    It doesn't matter if I use FF or IE. I've re-installed Flash Player, both the FF version and the Ax version. To no avail. I've logged into my computer as a different user, because hell maybe it's some weird dumb thing in the Flash Player cache or something. Nope.
    Now here's the super, super, super annoying part: I just recently moved to this laptop and one of the things I was looking forward to was a computer where my webcam would FINALLY work with flash player again. Yes, that's right: my old computer had this exact same problem. And in both cases, at one point the camera worked with Flash player no problem, and then at some point, it just stopped working.
    This makes me think, of course, that the problem is some nefarious piece of software I've installed, but I can't think of what that is. I know the camera was working with my new computer as early as last week. Recently I've installed a bunch of software, including Adobe Media Live Encoder 3.1, Flash Professional CS5, and the Adobe Connect add-in. I've uninstalled everything except CS5, because, hey, who wants to re-install that if they don't have to? I'll do that as a last result, but the guy sitting next to me has the entire CS5 suite installed and camera works fine for him with Flash Player (same exact hardware too), so I don't think it's that. Other than that, I dunno. I've got VS2008 and 2010 installed. GoToMeeting. Office. That's about it.
    So. Any ideas? Any thoughts on how I could even start to debug the issue? Logging or something? Any help is much appreciated.

    Yes.
    Victory is mine.
    VICTORY IS MINE!!!
    Solution:
    Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg
    Set
    AVHardwareDisable=1
    to:
    AVHardwareDisable=0
    Restart your browser. Done. Camera works now.
    I really want to shout this solution from the rooftops, because try Googling the solution sometime. I did. I failed. You will too. Hopefully if I use some more 18-point bold font, Google will index it faster, because that's the way it works right?
    I actually had no idea that Flash Player has a folder in Windows\system32 at all, and I definitely had no idea that this file existed. I am guessing some stinking app I installed decided I needed AVHardwareDisable set to 1 for some reason (effers). I found out about the location by just lazily searching through the windows registry for "Flash Player" and eventually saw it pointing to that directory. A little more poking around and I found this file.
    Those of you who actively support this forum: please keep this in the back of your mind, next time someone has audio/video input problems with Flash Player. I've found an awful lot of forum posts from people with cameras not working, and I bet a good portion of them need this fix. Reinstalling Flash Player will not fix it. Here's hoping the solution comes up in Google for the next unlucky soul.

  • HP solutions center stopped working for photosmart d110a

    After using HP Solution Center (HPSC) for scanning on my D110a via wireless connection to my Win8 laptop (all current win8 updates installed) for many months it just stopped working. The printer is recognized in HPSC  but after selecting the Scan Picture button it times out with error "The scan cannot be performed because another computer is using the networked device." The extended error informations is 8, 0, [(18, -2147467259)].  I have downloaded, uninstalled and reinstalled HPSC three times and rebooted the pc and the printer each time to try and fix the problem without success.  I can see the printer in the Windows Control Panel and can print to it from all networked computers in the house, just no scanning. 

    Hello again DocRocks,
    I have a few other suggestions that we can try.
    This may take some time to get all the ducks in a row but I think it may prove to be successful for us.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Once the printer is connected to the wall outlet, please do a proper shut down with the use of the on/off button.  This will do a semi power reset on the printer .
    I am going to give you a link for Uninstalling the Printer Software.  Do a complete uninstall of the software and drivers and once it is complete, please restart the computer.
    When the computer is back on, disable any firewalls or anti virus protection.  We don't want anything getting in the way when we do the new installation.
    The next link i have for you is the HP Photosmart Full Feature Software and Drivers.  Save this file to the Desktop of the computer so that it creates its own icon.  This will make it easy to find when the download is complete.
    While the download is taking place, we are going to move over to the printer.  On the front panel of the printer use the right arrow key and go to the Setup Icon.  Once in the Setup menu, use the right arrow key and go to the Wireless option and press OK.  Scroll through the Wireless options until you see Restore Network Defaults. Once the defaults have been reset we are then going to run through the Wireless Setup Wizard.
    The Wizard will get the printer back on to the network and you will be prompted for a user name and password.
    Back on the computer the download should be complete and you can now double click on the new icon.  Follow the installation instructions.  You will be given connectivity options and when you choose wireless, you will be asked to type in the IP address that can now be found on the printer.
    This should take care of the issues that you have been experiencing.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.

    HP Solution Center no longer opens.  The following error message appears.
    HP Solution Center cannot run because your device installation is not complete.  Please plug in the USB cable or re-run the setup program from the installation CD for a network installation.  If this does not complete the installation, or you do not have the CD, access the HP help files by clicking the Start menu.
    I have checked my Flash Adobe and its current. I have uninstalled and re-installed the Solutions center 3 times and I still get the error. What do I do next? I need to scan.

  • HP Solution Center stopped working and HP Print and Scan Doctor cannot find my OJ4680

    HP Solution Center came installed on my HP G60 notebook with Windows 7 premium 64 bit.  It suddenly stopped working--it says it cannot run because the device installation is not complete.  If I open HP Sup0ort Assistant it says the OJ4680 is ready and it is designated as the default printer in Printers and Devices but when I try to run HP Print and Scan Doctor it cannot find it--it can only find OJ4500 which I use when I'm in my second home.  Please help me fix this as at this point I can't print or scan. 

    Thanks for the help and quick response.  I haven't tried your solution yet because before I received your instructions I updated the drivers again and it appears to be working though I've had a message since then that I couldn't scan because my device was offline which was not true as I had just printed a document.  I used HP Print and Scan doctor and followed the steps which included turning the device off and unplugging it for 60 seconds.  I can now copy, print and scan but I still have the yellow triangles with exclamation points on both my PC and all in one.  I'm not sure I want to do more at this point since everything is working well at the moment. BTW my laptop is set for automatic updates by HP and Microsoft, why didn't they keep this problem from occurring?

  • HP Solutions Center stopped Working on Windows 8

    I have been using HP 3210 all in one printer for quite some time on Windows 8. All of the sudden earlier this week or last, I noticed the Solutions Center no longer worked. A message comes up saying the device software has not installed correctly. I have tried reinstalling the entier software, but get the same response. Any ideas of why it was working and now all of the sudden it does not. the printer still prints out fine, just can't use the solutions center.

    Hey @BOWZ,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I would like to assist you today in resolving the error with HP Solutions Center 'Device Software has not installed correctly' with your HP Photosmart 3210 All-in-One. Being that you're running Windows 8 there is a good chance that if this was working for a period and suddenly stopped working a Windows Update most likely caused the conflict. Now I know you have already tried reinstalling your software and that failed to resolve anything. I'm going to offer a few more steps here to get your Solutions Center software up and running again.
    Step 1: Uninstall your HP Software:
    Open your start screen by either clicking on the Windows start button on the bottom left of your computer screen or by selecting your Windows button on the bottom left hand corner of your keyboard to the right of the Ctrl button
    Once your Start screen opens just type 'programs and features' and the Programs and Features option should automatically populate. Should it not show as an option then you may need to select 'Settings' on the right hand side and then choose 'Programs and Features'
    Once Programs and Features launches a list of all the programs installed on your computer will populate. Locate the HP Photosmart C3210 software and uninstall it. Note: you should see a file that says 'HP Photosmart 3210 basic driver' and one that shows 'Solutions Center,' ensure that they are removed from your computer.
    Once the HP Software is uninstalled then reboot your computer
    Step 2: Empty your Temp Files:
    When your computer comes back on, reopen your Start screen and type 'Run'
    Select the Run box and then type in the run box %temp% and select OK
    When the Temp folder opens select Ctrl + A at the same time on your keyboard to select everything in the Temp folder
    Next release Ctrl + A and select Delete on your keyboard
    Almost everything should delete out of this Temp folder. If any files are still being used on your computer you will have the pop up to 'skip' these.
    Note: Only Temporary files are being deleted. No files or folders for your actual computer will be removed by doing this.
       6. Once the files in the Temp folder have been deleted then close the folder
       7. Right click on your Recycling Bin on your Desktop and left click on 'Empty Recycling Bin'
    Step 3: Run an MSCONFIG Selective Startup:
    Reopen your Run box again and this time type msconfig and select OK
    When the System Configuration Utility opens select 'Selective Startup' and uncheck 'Load Startup Items'
    Click on the Services tab at the top and uncheck 'Hide all Microsoft Services' at the very bottom
    Select Disable All on the right hand side
    Select Apply and OK
    When prompted, restart your computer 1 more time
    Step 4: Reinstall your Software and Drivers:
    You're now ready to reinstall your HP Software and Drivers. Please select this link: HP Photosmart and Officejet Full Feature Software and Drivers for your drivers.
    Select Download and Run the HP installer when prompted
    Follow the on screen instructions to complete the install of your HP Photosmart 3210 All-in-One.
    Does Solutions Center work now?
    If yes, please re-enable your Startup Services again.
    How to Enable Startup Services:
    Open the Run box and type msconfig and select OK
    When System Configuration Utility opens select 'Normal Startup'
    Select Apply and OK
    Restart your computer again when prompted
    Please let me know if these steps resolve your issue. Good luck!

  • HP Solution Center conflict with Adobe Flash Player

    I have an HP Deskjet F2210 Printer and when I installed the most recent upgrade of Adobe Flashplayer the hp solution center would not open. I uninstalled the flash player and hp solution center. I then reinstalled the solution center and it runs fine. I installed the flash player again with same results. Is there a fix for this conflict?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    As the Flash Player has been installed or upgraded later then the HP Solution Center, it may ause this conflicting.
    Please try the following Steps:
    1. Insert your printer installation disk and cancel any installation if it will automaticaly begin.
    2. Enter My Computer, right-click your CD Driver and then click browse.
    3. Enter the Setup folder.
    4. Enter the SolutionCenter folder underneath and locate the SolutionCenter.msi file (will have different icon then any other on that folder).
    5. Right click the file, then click Repair.
    Accept any alert during that installation and reboot your PC when done.
    Now check if the Solution Center may be launched again.
    If you have installed it from the web, run the downloaded installation package to extract its content, then close any opened window.
    click Start > Run, type %temp% and accept.
    locate a the latest folder starting with 7Z (you may have several, simply locate the latest one by checking the Change date)... it will contain the HP installation folder.
    Then continue from step3 above.

  • You Tube videos no longer work after Flash Player upgrade

    I am running Win XP 2002 with SP3 and Firefox 3.6.15.  I just upgraded flash player and now the You Tube videos no longer display.  The You Tube sound works.  IE has not be affected and I can see the You Tube videos.  Firefox does display videos from Netflix and news sites but not You Tube.  Your company wants $39.00 to solve a problem that is the result of your efforts, not mine.  I think that is wrong.  So what do I do so I can resume using Firefox to view You Tube videos?

    To eidnolb/anyone else who can help?
    I am having a great deal of issues trying to sort out the flash player.  Tried uninstalling/reinstalling the flash player, however I still get the same messages on sites such as youtube, bbc that I do not have the correct version installed and to install version 10.
    I notice that you have mentioned to right click the flash symbol and then on to settings on the link page that you provided, unfortunately, all i can see is a plain box with a cross in the top left hand corner, and when i right click, there is no Settings option. i have run malware and other sytem scans and have removed any issues that there might have been, all still to no avail.
    Any further help will be greatly appreciated.

  • HT4650 My keyboard has stopped working after an update of Flash Player.  Help! What can I do?

    Why has my keyboard stopped working after Flash Player update?

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    Do things work in Safe Mode?

  • Flash player stops working after a few days.

    My flash player stops working after a reboot. i have flash 12.0.044 installed on a dell laptop with windows 7. The flash works fine until the next day when I restart my computer. If I go to control panel / programs and features I notice that the program is still there but the icon has turned blank. If I re-install it works fine until the next reboot. I have asked the IT services company we work with and they have completely ‘rebuild’ my computer. (Installed new windows etc etc) and still the problem won’t go away.  I am at a loss. Who can help?

    Not enough memory, page-outs is too large

    After removing adware, and do a safe boot of Safari and remove extensions, then reset cache history etc. You need to do a boot into Recovery Mode and run Disk Repair from there. Also boot the system in Safe Mode.
    On startup it sounds like you have a problem with the directory which would also account for long startups and checking the directory. Along with or instead of DU Repair Disk you can use Single User Mode and fsck -fy to try to fix the directory but in some cases that may not be enough.
    Backups from before you got this adware and problems helps and should always be ready and able to restore a system from known good backups or system restore image.
    4GB of RAM may have been fine originally but "Early 2011" is now 5 years and 4 OS version changes. You can upgrade the memory and while at it consider a nice SSD internal drive which will help as well.

  • Windows media player stop working after upgraded from firefox 6.02 to Firefox 7.01 yesterday.

    windows media player stop working after upgraded from Firefox 6.02 to Firefox 7.01 yesterday.
    the plugin for win media player is already installed and working fine in FF 6.02 before upgrade. i have Google this issue without any result so far. so i reinstalled the old version 6.02, until fix is found.
    anyone has the similar issue with Firefox 7.01 in Win 7 32 bit ?

    The issue was not with FF 7.01. VLC player version 1.11.1 is conflicting with windows media player when FF 7.01 tries to play media files! Which was not happening before in FF 6.02.
    VLC and plugin media player need to be uninstalled first, then uninstalled FF 6.02. Install FF 7.01 and then win plugin media player again.
