I have an Officejet 8500a Plus, but he can't find my Linksys Router

I just bought an Officejet 8500a Plus printer,
It can't find my Linksys router (WPA), all the other networks in this area are visible except our Linksys Router, with WPA security.
Tried to configure it with the software, connect the printer with USB, and tried to connect the linksys router, it say's: You're out of range of your wifi acces point(something like that)
HELP?
This question was solved.

Here are a few tips:
1. Make sure 802.11g is present.  Other wireless modes (like 802.11n) are OK, but g must be present.
2. Broadcast your SSID and do not use MAC filtering.
3. Make sure your router has the latest firmware.

    I rented a movie a few hours ago and never finished it.  I can't view it on my Apple TV nor on my Computer.  When I go to rent it again it says you have already rented this movie, but I can't find it anywhere.  How do I watch the remainder of the rental?

    I had the same issue with my apple tv 3rd generation. I rented Sinister and selected the "rent and watch now" option. Half way through the movie I accidentally pressed the menu button. When I looked for the rented movie on my apple tv I could not find it. Not even above the movie pannel where "purchased" and "top movies" comes up on the main menu. the apple tv suggests to go to settings>downloads but I don't have that option. I did go to settings> itunes store> check rentals but that didnt work either. It took too long to even check. Thank you because this SOLUTION worked great.
    SOLUTION: How to reset apple tv 3 3rd generation to view rented movies:on the apple tv remote: press and hold "menu" to go to the main menu. Select SETTINGS> GENERAL >RESET >RESET ALL SETTINGS. After the apple tv resets, input all your information again and your rented movies should be visible when you cruise above the "movies" section. THANK YOU!!
    Apple needs to solve this issue because honestly it took me 3 hours and a half to watch a movie that only lasted 2 BECAUSE I wast trying to solve the issue, reseting and all. blahh.

    Did you ever restore your last iCloud backup?  That contains you camera roll photos & videos, text messages, app data, settings, etc.  It will also redownload your apps and other purchased media.
    If you didn't, follow the steps in this article to restore the backup: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521.

  • I have saved mail in folders but now can't find the folders.

    As an example, mail about my hobbies is saved in the Hobby folder but the only time I see the Hobby folder on my iPad is when I'm saving a message.  I want to retrieve some of those messages from time to time but don't know where to go or how to do it.  The User Guide didn't cover this as far as I could tell.  Thanks.

    Have you got 'Find My iPad' enabled? This has to be turned off using the original ID address.
    Try going back to http://appleid.apple.com and changing the ID back to the original address. If you can get this accepted, then go to the iCloud preferences/settings pane, stop 'Find My ....', and then sign out. Do the same on any other devices or computers.
    Then go back to http://appleid.apple.com and change the ID to the new one. Sign in with that on all your devices.
    However if the address which forms the original ID is now not working it can't be validated and it's possible that you won't be able to revert to it. In this situation only Support can help you.
    To contact  iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the initial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.

  • I can't authorize my computer! I just changed computers and I can't access my old purchases because I can't find where to authorize my new computer!! I can deauthorize the other computers, which I just did, but it can't find anything else

    I can't find the "Authorize your computer" in the Itunes Store. I can't download my old purchases because it tells me I have to authorize the computer, but I can't find it anywhere!! I can enter my account and deauthorize the old computers, which I did, but nothing happens. I can't find the "Advanced" option anywhere either.

    Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

  • Windows 8 scanning on officejet 8500a Plus

    After upgrading from Windows 7 to 8, I am unable to scan using my OfficeJet 8500a Plus.  Downloaded the latest trouble shooter, and Printer seems to be installed and is default.  I am able to print, but when I go to the print center and select the scanning option, I get an error message that the printer is not installed.  Same things happens if I try to intiate a sccan from Acrobat pro 9.  When I I select the printer from the drop down (only one there) I get an error that there is a network error.  Followed trouble shooting steps on site, checked firewall settings (default windows firewall at this point) to no avail.  Tried removing and reinstalling the printer, as well as re-intiating the wireless connection from the printer,  No go.
    Am able to print without a problem wirelessly, it's just the scanning that is a problem.

    This sounds quite promissing.  Will test as soon as I get back into town.  If this works, we really need to put this out on the net, as apparently I am not alone in experiencing this type fo problem.  I have seen all kind of different replies, but this seems to be the most logical.
    I must say that it is somewhat frustrating that the new diagnostic tool that is supposed to identify and fix the problem, did not do this automatically, as programatically it does not seem like a major task to identify an outdated installation, uninstall it, and install a more updated version.
    Thanks for your reply, and I will report back on the results.
    best regards, and thanks for the quick reply!

  • Error 388 on my Officejet 8500a Plus printer

    My paper feeder will only work intermittently on my officejet 8500a plus.  It prints an error message 388*  This error occurs when I'm trying to fax.  What can I do to resolve this problem. 

    This error refers to error in connection line: Refer to below for more explanation.
    Error Code: 386, 387, 388, 389, 390, 391, 392, 393, 394, 395
    Definition
    There is too much noise on the line for a valid connection between two fax machines to complete. The noise problem might go away over time.
    Solution
    Retry the fax reception at a different time when telephone line conditions have improved. Call the telephone provider if line conditions fail to improve.
