Acer laptop with disappeari​ng networked C7280 will not accept HP update

I have an Acer Aspire 1810T running 64-bit Windows 7 and a Photosmart C7280 connected by ethernet to my router and accessed via wireless by the Acer. I have had a problem with the printer spontaneously disappearing from Windows; it is occasionaly  simply gone from devices and Printers. When I reinstall using the driver install, it comes back, until the next time. This has hapened about 4 times in 3 months.
I was delighted, then, to find a critical update for the C7280 on the HP site, stating:
 " Windows Critical Update to enhance reliability of network connection 
This update corrects an issue which causes network-connected printers to disappear from the system"
Perfect!       Or so I thought ...
When I attempt to run the update, I get an error message:
"This update does not support any of the device drivers you have on your PC. You do not need this software update."
Yes I do!!
Yes, I have uninstalled & reinstalled the printer. Yes, I AM using the correct (and only as far as I can tell) Windows 7 driver for the C7280. And yes, the update is for the Windows 7 on the same C7280 printer.
Any suggestions?  Please help if possible.

That's exactly what I was going to suggest.  I'd try it again after a Windows Update (over and over if necessary) and a reboot.

    I purchased Photoshop CS5 for my windows vista operating system. I purchased a canon 7 D some yrs ago no problem. I purchased canon 7D mk 11 in December 2014. The supplied software will not work with vista. Photoshop CS5 will not accept canon7D mk11. Can someone please tell me how i process canon 7D mk11 photos ?????. (is it possible to bypass camera raw and open the photo straight into CS5 without using camera raw first. if so how do i do that. if not how do i process pictures).
    Thank you.
    Brian in the UK.

    Photoshop by itself cannot process raw image data. That is why the Camera Raw plug-in was developed. You could try the DNG converter and convert your images to the DNG format and then the Camera Raw that you have would be able to open them. I can't recommend Lightroom because you are using Vista, and Lightroom 5 cannot be used with that operating system. It may be time for you to get a new computer and upgrade your software.

  • I have been given an Apple 3G which is in jailbreak.  After restoring and updating my phone will not accept any updates or restoration. Unknown error 1015. Please help!

    I have been given an Apple 3G which is in jailbreak.  After restoring and updating my phone to get rid of jailbreak the iphone will not accept any updates or restoration. Unknown error 1015. Please help!  I am new to all this and want to start using the phone legitimately.

    I believe from the situation you describe your iPhone 3g has the iPAD baseband 6.15.00 which is interfering with iTunes. Remember Apple does not allow downgrade of software typically. The current 3g firmware 4.2.1 has a baseband 5.15.04 which is lower than, what I believe your baseband is of 6.15.00. So to install the current 3g firmware 4.2.1 would actually be a baseband downgrade, which iTunes will not allow. So to fix your iPhone you will have to search the Web like diesel vdub said. There are no parts to buy and your iPhone will work again I promise.

  • HP Laserjet P2015 will not accept firmware update

    Hi,
    A laserjet P2015n will not accept a firmware upgrade.
    When attempting to upgrade, paper jam led flashes 3 times, pauses for 1 second , flashes 3 times.......led will repeat this pattern even after upgrade is supposed to have completed. 
    If I cycle the power, the printer returns to ready state but firmware is still at the older version. 
    User had been experiencing dificulties printing and firmware update might resolve the issues.
    Does anyone know of a solution?

    The product you have seems to be a commercial printer. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!
    You may find the Commercial Laserjet board here.

  • My mac picks up my home network but will not accept the password

    Just got my mac intel and started it up, went through the start up process and it picked up my home network. When I put in the password that works will all other items on the network eg I Phones, printer and playstation, it tells me there was an error with the airport.
    Any help please.

    Greetings,
    What type of router and what type of encryption does it use?
    1. Remove the following files to the trash:
    Macintosh HD > LIbrary > Preferences > System Configuration >
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    com.apple.nat.plist
    com.apple.network.identification.plist
    com.apple.smb.server.plist
    NetworkInterfaces.plist
    preferences.plist
    2. Remove the the saved password for the network:
    Open "Keychain Access"
    Search the keychain for the name of your wireless network and delete all references to it
    3. Shut the computer down entirely
    4. Turn off your wireless router for 5 minutes. Usually unplugging the power to the router is how you turn it off.
    5. Turn the wireless router back on
    6. Turn the computer back on and attempt to join the network and very carefully enter the password for your network.
    Hope that helps

  • After installing CS4 Master Suite on new Windows 7 X64 laptop, Premier Pro new projects window will not accept input.

    I'm migrating my CS4 Master Suite to a new computer.  The new system is a Dell M3800 running Windows 7 x64.  Install goes fine except for a failure on Flash install.  Once install is complete Premier Pro won't accept any input on the New Projects window.  You can click on the file name field and change it but that's about it.  No buttons will function.  If you change the name and leave the field you can not change it again.  No further input is accepted and the actual change you made isn't applied.  You can exit out of the window with the X.  You can also go to an existing project no problem.  All other applications seem to be working fine.
    Tried uninstall and cleanup and reinstall.  Problem does not change.  Made sure anti-virus and firewall were disabled before install.  No other applications are running during install.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Cannot log in to Windows; will not accept password

    Shutdown my Windows 8.1 tablet last night normally with no unusual issues. Will not accept the password this am. Have checked to see that correct pword was entered.

    I am having the same problem.  Have a Satellite C55-B5240 running Windows 8.1 that is only 2 weeks old.  Shut down last night and this morning cannot get past the log in screen.  Checked and rechecked the caps, the password, even went on to another computer and changed the password 6 times.  I can get on with any of the other pc's but not the new one. On-line-chatted with Microsoft and spoke to 3 different techs.  They all said the same things...it was beyond their expertise and I should contact Toshiba, get the Windows 8.1 key from them, and reload 8.1!!  Very funny.  I can't even get online let alone download anything.  They were no help whatsoever!  Spent 2 1/2 hours on chat with them.  I don't know what to do other than call Toshiba on Monday.

  • I cannot update apps iphone will not accept password

    I have a apple id and when I try to update apps on iphone it will not accept password keep asking to reset it same problem with icloud cannot log in will not accept pw I tried creating a new id but same problem

    What happens when trying to update via iTunes on the computer?

  • Itunes will not accept my apple id password in the store.

    when I enter the store in itunes 11.0.1, a message popps up telling me to enter my password to enable automatic downloads. When I enter the correct password, the same message pops back up instantly. If I enter the wrong password, it tells me so in red. I can not do anything with the store, because it will not accept my account. I can purchase on other devices with the same account and password with no problem.

    You may need to do a credit card "update" in your account.  Apparently "it" needed a re-verify because I had accessed my apple account from another computer.  Did so and it worked. Apple is opaque in many ways and it was totally unhelpful as it just kept rejecting my good password with no explanation.

  • Iphone will not accept my gmail password

    My phone and my mail was working fine until about 3am yesterday.  Now it suddenly says my name and password are wrong.  imap.gmail.com- says it is incorrect.
    1) I try to enter the password again, it still says it is wrong. 
    2) I went on my computer to use gmail- it lets me in using my password.
    3) I updated the software to 5IOS, thinking there was a glitch-the phone was restored in the proceess.  After the update, it still does not accept my password.
    4) I changed my password on my computer.  Iphone still does not accept the new password.
    5) I deleted the account, then put it back in with the password, says it will not accept it- so now I have no email account on my phone.
    6) I turned off the phone and turned it on again.
    None of these things worked, clearly.  What am I doing wrong and why did my iphone suddenly decide it did not like my password?

    One possibility is that if you have Gmail 2-step verification enabled, you need to use an application-specific password in Mail: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/1173270?hl=en

  • HELP?  "Tell a Friend" feature will not accept multiple addresses

    Any help would be appreciated.
    I have a list of email addresses that I would like to send a notice about subscribing to my podcast to. When I click on "Tell a friend" and add only 1 address - there is no problems, but when I add multiple addresses (even just 2) it will not work.
    It tells me that I can add multiple addresses by seperating them with a comma, but it will not accept. It keeps saying +"One of the email addresses you entered is not valid. Please enter complete email addresses seperated by commas (for example: [email protected], [email protected])."+
    I know these addresses are correct.
    Anyone know how I can do this or why it won't work for me? I am so frustrated.
    Thanks

    You are so clever! What a great idea. I ended up finding out that you can enter only up to 5 names at a time - BUT YOU CAN NOT HAVE EVEN 1 SPACE BETWEEN NAMES or it will not work. Example: ([email protected],[email protected],[email protected],etc.)

  • Photosmart C7280 will not print from one computer on wireless network

    C7280 will not print from desktop computer via a home wireless network. It has worked in the past, but ceased recently.
    It will print from a laptop on the same network.
    I have tried to comply with the procedures on the HP Support and Drivers site, such as the HPHNDU.exe routine and others, but have had no success.
    I would appreciate some help. My previous post in May has not had any replies.

  • Had problem with laptop so reinstalled it now itunes will not sync on both laptops, it did before.

    Had problem with laptop so reinstalled it now itunes will not sync on both laptops, it did before to my iphone5 says cannot sync to 2 libraries until I reinstalled it did.

    iDevices can only be synched with one library.  However, you can sync successfully with more than one computer if each has a copy of the same logical library - the identifier that iTunes uses to determine which library is synced an iDevice is recorded within the iTunes database (the iTunes Library.itl file).  The best approach is to replicate your complete library (database, media, artwork, associated files) from one PC to the other.  When you reinstalled iTunes on your laptop it will, by default, have created a new library with a distinct id from that of your other machine.  Even if you copied all your media from one to the other, iTunes will still see the libraries as distinct with respect to syncing iDevices.
    If you have configured iTunes to organize your media and to copy files to the iTunes Media folder, then the complete library will be contained within (by default) C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes, with a structure of subfolders and key files like this:
    If this is the case, you can (with iTunes not running on either machine):
    Copy this iTunes folder from laptop 2 to laptop 1 (the one that's had iTunes reinstalled) - depending on the size of your library you can do this over a network, using a thumb drive, or an external (USB) hard driveNote this this assumes no media on laptop 1 that's not also on laptop 2 - if this isn't the case, there's a slightly different process to follow to ensure that this media is preserved and can be added to the "common" library
    Once the copy is complete, make sure that iTunes is using the correct library database by holding down SHIFT as you start iTunes.  When you see this prompt:
    select Choose Library..., navigate to the iTunes folder you just copied, select the iTunes Library.itl file you'll find there, and click Open.
    For future reference, you can use turingtest2's user tip on Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy for a suitable method to backup your library to an external drive - you can then, with care, use this to keep the copies of your common library in sync across your laptops.

  • TS1538 I was attempting to update iphone 4s today, laptop went flat during the last stages. The iphone now only displays USB cord, with an arrow pointing towards iTunes emblem. iTunes will not accept/read the iphone. HELP??

    I was attempting to update iphone 4s today, laptop went flat during the last stages. The iphone now only displays USB cord, with an arrow pointing towards iTunes emblem. iTunes will not accept/read the iphone. HELP??                   

    If you have the latest version of iTunes you should not have to download the ipsw file separately as jalp suggests. iTunes will download it automatically.
    This error (9) most often means that your antivirus or firewall (or router) is blocking access to Apple's servers. In rare instances it can also mean that the phone was hacked (or "jailbroken") to unlock it. If this is the case you must do a DFU restore, not Recovery Mode, as follows:
    Reboot your computer
    Disable your antivirus and firewall. If you has Kaspersky you may actually have to uninstall it, as it can never be turned completely off.
    Connect the USB cable to a USB port directly on your computer, not to a hub. DO NOT connect the other end to the phone
    Disconnect all USB devices except for mouse, keyboard and iPhone cable.
    Launch iTunes
    On the phone hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time for EXACTLY 10 seconds, then release the SLEEP button but continue holding the HOME button. The screen should be black. If it has an Apple logo this means you held both buttons too long. Release the HOME button and do it again.
    While holding the HOME button connect the free end of the cable to the phone.
    After a short while iTunes should recognize a phone in "recovery mode" (iTunes doesn't know the difference between DFU and Recovery modes, but the phone does)
    Release the HOME button and don't touch the phone or the computer until the process completes or you get an error message. Ignore any displays on the phone.
    If the error recurs the phone was probably messed up when it was hacked. This is not a hardware problem, or if it is, it isn't one you can fix.
    You can try repeating these steps with a different computer and a different cable. If that fails also the phone is probably not repairable.

  • Time Capsule WiFi disconnects when a Fujitsu Siemen Laptop with b/g network

    Time Capsule WiFi disconnects when a Windows Vista based Laptop with "b/g" network connects. When i use Macbook with "n" Network.
    Surprising that TC and MacBook both from Apple can't stay connected when Fujitsu Siemens Laptop joins through WiFi.
    I use a DSL Modem (Speed 1 Mbps) connected thru ethernet to Time Capsule on Bridge Mode.

    Yes, n is better, but if you have it running on b/g/n (since you have to with your b/g only notebooks) the n is inactive. Kind of a waste. Others have resorted to adding another wireless router which one set to b/g/n and the other n-only.
