A network installed HP8600, will not connect to a new client with OS WIN7SP1, WSD Print Driver err
aloha,
My home network consists of 3 computers with OS WIN7-SP1 and a Networked HP8600 connected thru a Linksys E3200 router. 2 of the 3 computers have been on the network with the 8600 for several months and have had ongoing problems with receiving a print command. I've been trying to load the Printer software on the 3rd computer for the last 2 days without success. The software fails to complete installation and hangs up when trying to ID the Networked 8600. I had HP Print and Scan Dr. operating in the background and it found the printer, and gives the message "Installation failed", "Windows can not find a suitable Printer driver". Is there a fix that my research is failing to find?

This question was solved.
View Solution.
If you connect the printer to the router using the Ethernet cord it is effectively "wireless" to all the other devices on the network. You just have to select "Network - Ethernet" as your connection type and install the printer that way to ensure they are all connected. If you do this, the printer will not have to be tangiby "connected" to any of the computers on your network.
Mele Kalikimaka to you too! I actually remember that from Bing Crosby!

We want to bring back the control over your data access, LeRoyN! Thanks to rcschnoor for offering this support. Also may I ask what type of error messages are you seeing when attempting the connection? Have you been able to connect to these same networks in the past?
Thank you,

Bluetooth will not connect to a new devicd
I have a Bose stereo system with a blut tooth adapter. It connects to mly iphone via bluetooth but my Ipad with retna display will not connect to it. Help...
Yes they have reason to.
To send a file or photo to or from a phone.
Bluetooth does that on any other phone or device.
No point in bluetooth even being in a phone if it cant be used wherever or with what devices i choose.
May as well unistall it.
Craziest thing i have ever heard " it won't connect becasue it has no reason to" it has a reason to send a photo to another device.
I would not have bought these phones if i know that.
Why isnt it in the specs?
"Phone has bluetooth that will not connect because it has no reason to"
What does it have that does not work becasue it has no reason to? -
Oracle 10G Non-Network install - OEM will not start when on the LAN.
Greetings,
Got through a non-networked 10G Enterprise installation OK; I chose to create the orcl schema, connected to it through various utilities, added new tablespace, and all was well. I also checked my Host Name by pinging it in DOS, it showed me the IP address of the MS loopback adapter which is what I was expecting.
Once I connected the same machine to the LAN (and internet) and re-booted, for some reason the Host Name was now assigned the dynamic IP address of the LAN and not LAN2 (which is the loopback adapter that is assigned a static local IP address). It did this even though I had already added an entry in the /etc/hosts file that explicitly assigns a static IP address to the Host Name (as recommended in the Oracle 10G pre-installation instructions). I also could not get the OEM to launch a webpage, run and connect to the orcl database after the re-boot; I am wondering if this is related to the IP address assigned to Host Name changing; maybe the Oracle agent can no longer resolve the URL for some reason?
In the end I find that the only way to insure I can have a working Oracle environment and be on an active network at the same time, is to bring up the Oracle environment on a standalone system first, and once Oracle is running connect the system to the network. Is there no way to automate this process?
The format of the hosts file entry recommended by the Oracle 10G pre-installation instructions is as follows:
===========================================================
IP_address hostname.domainname hostname
where:
IP_address is the non-routable IP address you entered for the loopback adapter.
hostname is the name of the computer.
domainname is the name of the domain.
For example:
10.10.10.10 mycomputer.mydomain.com mycomputer
==========================================================
In my case since I am not part of a Windows domain (but am part of a Windows Workgroup), I added an entry in the /etc/host file that looks like the following:
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
# For example:
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.110.250 IBM-6AB1330E158
==> Note that I did not add the domain name to the entry I created since I am not part of a domain, I also used the format I found in the etc/hosts file which is:
IP_address hostname.domainname
- not -
IP_address hostname.domainname hostname
Which is the format recommended in the Oracle 10G pre-installation instructions; this does leave me wondering which format is correct...
Thanks in Advance for any help,
ADG13I have not. I am hoping someone (maybe even from Oracle support) will step up and officially tell us we are either right or wrong in the way we are approaching this. From the research I have done on the internet it sounds like this should work, you should be able to have Oracle starting and running fine whether you boot connected to the LAN or not, assuming you have created the MS loopback adapter, assigned it a static IP, and changed the hostname entry in etc/hosts file as part of the 10G WinXP recommended pre-installation instructions.
And yet I find I have to start Oracle when I am not connected to the LAN or the services will not start correctly. If this is a "feature" then hopefully someone will tell us and maybe give us a workaround or give us an idea if this will be addressed in a future release. Having said that and in fairness to the Oracle product; being a developer I have other products installed on my machine that have special networking setup needs also, and in my case this could be exasperating or even possibly causing this Oracle problem I am having. To be specific I have software for 2 different VPNs installed so I can tunnel into 2 private networks. One of these VPNs require me to make use of a DNS Suffix (as shown below) which might be contributing to my problems, not sure. I also have VMWare installed which uses it own network adapters when it is running, so you can see how things could get a little hairy... at any rate, there is my 2 cents worth (or is that 5 cents? : )
fwiw,

I have no idea what to try next. Please help!
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 droping 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

ThanksYou sure your mac ethernet port works.
Give them a call. Verify that they only support windows for coniguration of router. Ask them about future support. If they have heard of the ipad. Ask if they plan on supporting a web browser interface. Ask about their sanity. My $5 router supports a web browser interface.
You could get a cheap wifi router with ethernet ports and with a web browser interface. Connect you mac to you el cheap router. Connect your el cheapo router to the eircom router. Note: Apple routers have a propriety interface too and unless you have a new Mac best to avoid.
Could they switch you to a router that supports a web browser interface?
Get a friend with a windows laptop and ask to come over to get things working.
Internet support is standardized. You mac should be able to access the internet through the router.
What is not standardized is how you configure your router.
Unbelievably, eircom_799 referenced by Neville Hillyer only supports windows for configuration.
9.1 UPnP
Introduction
UPnP is designed to automate the installation and configuration of a (small) network as much as
possible. This means that UPnP-capable devices ca
n join and leave a networ
k without any effort of a
network administrator.
Supported Operating Systems
The following operating systems support UPnP:
Windows 7
Windows Vista
Windows XP
If your computer is running Windows XP, you
first have to install the UPnP component. For
more information, see
“9.1.4 Installing UPnP on Windows XP” on page 83
They support 101 silly functions you will not be able to figure out how to use, but only support Windows 7 & Windows Vista out of the box. -
Hi!
I've had my iPhone 5 for just over a year now, and I haven't really had any problems since iOS7 was installed. I had a PC, with no connectivity problems between any of my Apple devices. Then FINALLY, I purchased my very first Macbook Air 13". I set it all up, updated all the apps, and made sure it was good to go. My iPhone was really low on battery one day, and I just happened to have my USB for it handy and thought I would just plug it into my computer to charge it. I figured I worry about syncing it later as I hadn't really had time to set it all up with iTunes on the new computer.
MY PHONE WENT CRAZY. It just started vibrating all over the table. Looking at the battery icon, it was flipping between charging and not charging, and occasionally the "do you trust this device" window would pop up on the screen, but it was still going crazy. iTunes opened up and these alerts saying "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. Could not connect to the device." and "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. This device is no longer connected." All it was doing at this point was using up even more battery. But then the iPhoto app opened by itself on my shiny new Macbook and the vibrating stopped. It was charging and syncing! But not having iPhotos before on a computer weirded me out i hadn't decided exactly what I wanted to do with it, I closed the app. The phone went nuts again. ***. On a different day, I was trying to sync it again, and it worked. But only long enough to back it up on the macbook. W.T.F.
Plugging into any PC is no problem at all. The phone just connects and starts charging.
I've tried just about everything. All of my software is up to date, both on the mac and iphone. The USB cord is fine. I've reset the macbook with it plugged in and not plugged in. I have uninstalled, and reinstalled iTunes with the phone plugged in and not plugged in. I've reset all the contents and settings on my iPhone, as well as did a hard reset with it plugged in and not plugged in. My iPad has no problem connecting and it also has iOS7. It's just so weird though, that it starts connecting/disconnecting interchangeably as soon as I plug it into the computer, even when all my apps are closed. All this is leading me to believe that it must be some sort of issue between the devices' communication to each other. But I'm not sure if it's an iPhone, MacBook, or iTunes issue!
HHHHEEEEELLLLLLPPPPP!!!!!I had this same problem with my new MBP 15", but only with the USB port on the left side. The USB port on the right side worked fine. Perhaps the ports on the left don't have enough signal energy for the iPhone.
Anyway, try using a different USB port, and if that doesn't work, perhaps you could try a powered USB hub. -
I just received my IPad and it will not sync with ITunes and my Mac doesn't recognize it any form. The screen is black with the exception of the annoying ITunes/USB cable graphic on the screen which appears momentarily and then disappears. Any ideas?
Things you can try first off,
is make sure you plug in your USB at the back of the mac, rather than for example keyboard.
Check out another usb cable.
Hold down sleep/wake and home button at the same time to reset iPad.
Make sure you have the latest iTunes installed or you may have to reinstall iTunes.
None of these work then I suggest you to take it to an Apple retail store for the genius guy to check it out. -
Macbook Air connects to network fine but will not connect to internet?
I am staying with someone away from home and cannot use my Macbook Air (OSX 10.9.4) with the internet. They have a Comcast network and all other devices including my iPhone, connect with no problems. I have connected to the network and it works initially (loading a web page or retrieving email) but almost immediately the internet stops working and pages freeze trying to load. The wifi shows no problems but internet connection is not working for both email and safari
I have cleared the network info and set up again, reset the router, restarted my computer and other trouble shooting. I have been able to connect to the same network by tethering my phone as well but cannot use the network directly.
Everything indicates that there the network connection is fine but but no internet, please help!Connect to the problem network. Double-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
www.google.com
Launch the Network Utility application.
Step 1
Select the Lookup tab and paste into the address field by pressing command-V. Then press return. Post the output that appears below – the text, please, not a screenshot.
Step 2
Select the Ping tab and do the same. Please enter the same input as you did in Step 1. Don't use the output of Step 1 as input to Step 2.
Important Note
Some web browsers and mail clients will automatically convert a domain name such as "www.example.com" to a clickable URL, such as http://www.example.com. That will interfere with the test. If necessary, edit the input in the Network Utility window to remove any added characters. -

I cannot connect via Safari to a live Internet connection. System preferences show Airport is on and connected to a secure network. I am able to connect using my iPad and other devices.
Thanks. Turns out that I had to re list the router and update its password along with resetting the DHCP. Once that was accomplished all seemed to work fine again. Just can't figure out why the connection was disrupted.

I had to reset my computer because of a virus i had. When i re installed itunes my music was gone. I went to plug in my Iphone 5 and know my phone does not recognize the computer. I also have hit the trust button on my iphone but have to continue trusting the computer each time it gets plugged in. Still the phone wont connect to itunes at all to view what is on the phone. How do i fix this connection problem?
Hey ebe301,
Sorry to hear about your troubles with your PC. If you are not seeing your iPhone on your computer, then take a look at the link below to walk you through getting that working again. It will have you verify that drivers are installed and working as well as any third party software that may be causing conflicts.
