Hi.....my laserjet 1536dnf mfp was working perfectly with win 8 pro....then I installed win 8.1 pro and now the computer ,which is part of a network,can not communicate with the scanner of the printer--it prints just fine. On another computer (running win 7 ) on the same network, the scanner and all other printer functions  work just fine.
      I have tried installing the latest drivers from HP......scanner still not "communicating" with computer.....also temporarily disabled firewall.....please help...all the best -David G (gossat)

  • Problems with your internet connection after upgrading to iOS 7.1.2

    After upgrading to iOS 7.1.2 on my iPad Retina display does not connect to the internet more. Recognizes the Wi-Fi network but can not connect to the internet. The same thing happened to my wife's iPhone 5s, while my had no problems ...

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
    http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Having problems with your epson print after installing Lion?

    Go hear for download.
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/#epson%202.8
    My Macpro wouldnt do a auto software update for some reason.

    Hello Becky,
    I performed all the windows xp updates when I installed xp.
    Our computer has labview 6.0 and 6.1 on it. I thought maybe they were causing a problem, so I tried uninstalling them. I downloaded msiblast and tried to remove Labview 6.0 and 6.1, but since they used to be on a network, and the university does not carry those programs anymore, they gave me errors. I was able to uninstall 7.0 and reinstall it, but it still gave me the same error as described in the original post.
    I went into the registry and removed 6.0 and 6.1, but it still gives me the same error.
    I need a way of removing 6.0 and 6.1 so that I can do a clean install of 7.0.
    Thanks for your help,
    Sergio

  • Strange problem with my ipod 2g after upgrade to os 4.2

    Strange problem with my ipod 2g after upgrade to os 4.2
    the problem with volume some times when i switch on the ipod i hear the sound
    alarm rings it's work too i can hear it .. but the problem i cant hear anything else as yourtube or music i cant hear buttons sound when i typing
    i hope i get help

    I would try in order:
    - Reset the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore the iPod from backu via iTunes.
    - Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Elements 11 will not print to my epson stylus r1800 printer after upgrading from windows 8 to 8.1

    Elements 11 will not print to my Epson stylus r1800 printer after upgrading to windows 8.1 from windows 8

    I cant access any printers, not even the virtual printers.
    What I would do is use ProcMon to find out why that Event entry was written.  Then I imagine I would get a clue about a .dll which might be involved, which hopefully might be registerable.  Since IE9 there have been new .dll  involving printing
    which have not been reflected in any of our repair tools.  However, instead of modifying our old scripts to reflect this fact, I have been advocating, so far unsuccessfully, that Microsoft create a proper IE Repair tool, one which does not rely on such
    unreliable techniques.   E.g. a better method of repairing would be to have it done by a proper troubleshooter (an .msdt file) but so far it seems nothing has been done in that way for these symptoms (again, assuming the cause is registry corruption
    and not simple interference from now incompatible third-party programming--the fix for that would be to identify and remove the incompatibilities.)   For example.

  • Problems with set up disc after upgrading hard drive

    I am having problems starting up my Macbook after upgrading the hard drive from 80GB to 160GB.  The new hd is SATA, a WDScorpio.  The pins on the end look the same, and I've had no problem with the physical install.  When I go to start up the Macbook, I get a gray screen and the "flashing manila file w/a question mark" icon.  I load the disc while holding down the "C" key, and all that happens is the disc gets ejected.  What am I doing wrong?  I also have my hd backed up w/time machine in an external hd.  Any ideas?

    Turns out, my problem is a malfunctioning optical drive. My Macbook couldn't read the set up disc. This is the second time in a week that I have had this Macbook into the apple store for warranty repair work. Last week, It was a defective VGcable. Each trip to the Applestore is 115 miles round trip from where I live. I tried to get Apple to give me a new computer, but no dice. I even had a district manager in Boise Idaho hang up on me. It's too bad when they know they have a product which everyone loves, and wants to use. They can set the terms. How many things must go wrong before they just replace the @#$# thing? I bought the Macbook Feb 12th, so it's not that old. I have handled it with the utmost care. Anyway, I've tasted the forbidden fruit, and will continue to use Apple products. Thanks for your help. I'll probably have a much easier time with a computer that works. (knock on wood)

  • Problem with line items print in Script MAIN window.

    Dear Friends,
    I am facing a problem with display the line items in main window.
    Here i have created my form with 2 pages,
    in first page i have created header window(my header information is full length of page), in second page i have created 2 windows, one for MAIN window and second for FOOTER window,
    i am having the Footer information about to off the page.
    and in my main window total 3 line items are coming, if i am having 3 line items then it is displaying properly (first 3 line items then immediately footer information on same page) but if am having more then 3 line items say four, then in my second page first it is printing 3 line items then it is switching into another page. After that footer is coming but. in previous page after printing 3 line items the remaining page is empty..
    my client want me to remove that place also. he wants to display continue..

    Thanks
    Sridhar.

    Hi Sridher,
    If you want to display the footer information only on the last page why dont you use a table to display your details and place the footer details in the table footer instead of a seperate footer window.

    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can also try to install the older version in compatible mode:
    Windows 8.1 Wifi showing "limited" or "No Internet Access"
    Solution: revert your network adapter driver back to an older version
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/dennis_schnell/archive/2013/08/31/windows-8-1-wifi-showing-quot-limitied-quot-or-quot-no-internet-access-quot.aspx
    In addition, disable power management on your network driver:
    Open Network and Sharing Center.
    Click the Change adapter settings link in the upper left of the navigation pane.
    Right click the network connection you want to enable/disable power management support on and click Properties .
    Click Configure .
    On the Power Management tab, clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box.

  • Printing problem with HP laserjet 1100A after upgrading to Mac OS Maverick

    Good afternoon,
    I have always been able to use my HP Laserjet 1100A with my iMac till I upgraded to Mac OS Maverick.
    After giving a printing order just one order will be carried out.
    In case I have 3 printjobs I have te restart the iMac twice to carry out all the print jobs.
    I am using USB for connection.
    When I use the printer with my Windows computer (Windows 7) there is no problem at all with the required printjobs.
    I guess the driver Gutenprint v5.2.3 is the cause of the problem.
    Is there a new printerdriver available?
    Thanks in advance.
    Fred

  • Anyone having a problem with links in Safari after upgrading?

    okay,  Before the upgrade to os5, we were able to go to the website to get  the e-edition of our local paper.  The way their website is designed you first see part of the first page and then there is a link to take you to the full page.   Everything worked just fine.  Then after the upgrade, last Saturday, i am able to get the first part of the page, but when I click on the link to access the full page it goes to a blank page -about:blank.  I do have safari on my laptop (an ibm) and the link works fine there.  Is it a problem with Safari, the settings on my ipad or what?  Please help?

    Is your problem with iMovie as the title suggests or with iDVD?

  • Problems with wireless mouse/keyboard after upgrade to snow leopard

    Hi!
    I am wondering if someone has some insight for me.  I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard from Tiger. I have been using a Logitech S 530 wireless keyboard/mouse combo for a few years.  I am now having problems with them irratically.
    1. When on line and the page is large, I often cannot move the blue bar at the bottom of the screen to scroll to the right. What happens is like a stutter; as I am dragging the bar, it and the page shake rapidly side-to-side. Sometimes, I can drag it to the right, but as soon as I let go, it snaps back to the left.  This does not happen in Word.
    2. When in boxes with dropdown options, only occasionally does that happen.  The dropdown either doesn't show, or it flashes quickly.  Sometimes it will work after clicking many times. This happens with dropdown menus as well as search boxes that have dropdown choices for previous searches or suggested searches a la Google.
    3. When I use my function key or mouse to display all windows, I can't choose the one I want.  Regardless of which one I put my cursor over, only the left-most one is highlighted and comes to the front when I click.
    4. There is a varying lag. Sometimes the system is responsive, and other times there is a lag of varying lengths before the system responds to the mouse action (click, drag, zoom, etc.)
    5. For a while, my left mouse button wouldn't work.  I reconfigured it, that seems to have done the trick.
    6. Today, I can't open any of the menu items on Firefox.  I can move the cursor there, but when I click on any of them, nothing happens. This is okay in Safari.
    I have disconnected and reconnected the usb, restarted the computer, and tried to reinstall the software for the mouse and keybord. When I did that, I got a message saying it couldn't install on the current OS, so I went to Logitech and dowloaded and installed the latest version (which indicated it is for OS X 10.6.8.)
    I don't know if this is a Snow Leopard problem, but it started sometime after I upgraded.  Thanks in advance for any help!

    Update all your third party software  or uninstall and reinstall 10.6 versions.
    If your going to 10.7, be warned a lot of software will not work at all and your 10.5 era machine will be slow, perhaps even have problems as 10.7 is problematic on older hardware.
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    IMO save for a new 10.8 machine after this summer.

  • Problems with TV Out signal after upgrading to iOS 5.1

    Has anyone experienced problems with TV Out signals on their iPad 2 using the Apple HDMI Adapter after upgrading to iOS 5.1?  I am trying to connect to my HDTV after upgrading and cintunally receive an "Unsupported Video Signal" message with a blank/back screen.  Prior to upgrading, I had no connection problems and could view TV Shows, Movies, Music Videos, Keynote, etc...without problems.  I've been unable to find any resolution to this problem, even followed Apple guidance to detach and reattach the HDMI adapter without success.  Seems like a software bug to me and it's a major problem when trying to conduct business or personal activities.  Hopeing Apple has a fix in work already...anyone else have any ideas?  Thx in advance...

    Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo. It is safe to do, there should be no content loss. It is the same as rebooting your computer.
    If that does not work, restore the iPad to the factory settings.

  • Problem with the USB-connection after upgrade to P...

    Hello to everybody!
    After upgrading PC-suite, I can't establish a USB-connection with the phone.
    Here are the facts:
    1) My phone is the E90. Latest software installed (300.34.84)
    2) PC-Suite version 7.0.9.2 english. I also tried the greek version, same problem with it also.
    3) Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver 7.0.2.1. I also installed manually a previous version of the driver (7.0.2.0), but this didn't solve the problem.
    4) I didn't have any problem with the older version of PC-suite.
    5) I don't have a problem with the cable because the data-transfer-mode works fine.
    6) Prior to any installation attempt, I always first uninstalled PC-suite and Cable-driver manually with the windows-xp uninstall program. This was not the fact, only in my first attempt, where I upgraded the pc-suite from inside the program itself.
    Please help, because I can't backup and this is very important for me!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thank you all for your suggestions but nothing of the above worked for me.
    After of hours and hours of installing and uninstalling of several versions of the pc-suite I solved the problem as following:
    1) Uninstall manually (windows - control panel - add/remove programs)Nokia-PC-Suite, Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver AND PC Connectivity Solution!
    2) Restart PC
    3) Download and install the new version of Nokia-PC-Suite.
    The tricky part is that you have to uninstall the application called "PC Connectivity Solution" manually and since the title of the application dosn't include the Nokia-Name you have first to find out that this program is Nokia-related!
    Once again, thanks to everybody who took the time to make suggestions and especially to cricfancy who made me aware of the fact that PC Connectivity Solution is a nokia application!
    Finally, I would like to make a statement for Nokia:
    People, if you are not sure about an update then keep it in beta and don't make it available to the public!!! I lost hours and hours on search and made countless installs and uninstalls to find out what was wrong. Under the line, I had made no mistakes in my update from the start and the whole problem was based on your software! This is not acceptable!

  • Problems with my second monitor after upgrading to Mountain Lion

    Basically I have a Mac Pro 8-core with two video boards (2 x NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 MB) connected to two monitors. After upgrading to the Lion Mountain, 90% of the time when I start my MAC the second monitor doesn't show it image, keeps in full black screen, what puzzle me is, I can see the mouse arrow on it, so its alive, but its in black, than I have to restart the computer over and over again until it finally make the second shows it contains.
    Have anyone experienced the same problem?!

    Hello Carlo!
    Sorry but I don't understand which part of my question is not clear. I've been to the Apple Store, they asked me to bring my 20kg Mac Pro and both 24" inches Eizo monitors to central London to have it checked. Well, honestly, this is impossible, is an invitation for an accident.
    Is just unbeliavable that no one has experienced my problem, looks like I am the only one person with two monitors using the Lion Mountain.

  • Unable to obtain vivid print quality with HP ColorJet CP1515n after upgrading to Windows 7

    Since I upgraded to Windows 7, I no longer get the same sharp and vivid images that I used to get using Windows XP. The colors also differ from the colors on my screen.  Apart from upgrading to Windows 7 and installing the HP Universal PCL 6 driver, no changes have been made before the problem started.  I still use Corel Draw 10 and print on the same glossy paper used when the print quality was fine. 

    dpv,
    If we suspect operating system or driver problems since moving to windows 7 we can try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
    It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on. Let us know the results. 
    Best of Luck!
