tgwright,
Thank you for the additional info. With the print and scan doctor not locating any corrupted software/driver problems its time to look to the operating system itself. Others who have had similar issues with the same error indicate a corrupted registry key causing the problem:

Beware these solutions indicate changing registry info (very dangerous if you do not know what you are doing). If you are not comfortable in the registry or have never been there before I would suggest seeking additional support in some fashion (Microsoft/Local IT/PC Repair service/etc).
Best of Luck!

  • When I try to print from web page I get "printer not activated - error code 30", but I can copy text into Word document & printer works.

    I am unable to print anything from an internet web page. I continually get "printer not activated, error code- 30" followed by "An unknown error occurred while printing". I can copy the material from the web page, place into a Word document and then print. This just started yesterday and I have no idea why. Would appreciate your advice!

  • Been having trouble with printer drivers, so I uninstalled Photoshop CC and now I can't reinstall. Getting an error code 50

    I can't get cc to install. error code 50

    Can you open the CC Desktop Application Manager.  Click on the cog icon top right corner. Then on Account and see what version you are running?
    If less than 1.6.0.393 then you need to update the Desktop Application Manager.   I think that _might_ fix your error 50.

  • Activation error: Printer not activated, error code 20

    I have had my officejet 4215 all-in-one printer well over a year and it has connected and printed whatever I wanted.  Yesterday when I wanted to print an email it would not and the following box popped up: Activation error: Printer not activated, error code 20.  Then the next box that popped up said: Printer Error  An unknown error occurred while printing.
    If I copy the email over to a Microsoft Windows page, then i can print it fine.
    Any idea how to fix this so I can print email's like I used to?
    Rey

    What operating system?  What email program are you trying to print from?

    Hello everyone,
    I have very strange problem. I have loaded and installed my own applet in my java card. Everything works perfect, but in one function I obtain not OK response but 6A95. I have specified my own error code but 6A 95 is not in this list.

  • Can't connect to PSN. Error code: ce-33987-0

    Almost every night I can't connect to PSN. Error code: ce-33987-0
    After multiple PS4 restarts and my router restarts - it connects. Sometimes it connects after few hours without doing anything at all. So I couldn't find any pattern.
    My router and internet is perfect - all other devices at home has perfect internet connection at full speed.
    I tried all the tricks I've found in this forum (make my PS4 primary, connect to wifi and connect back to cable, do not turn off PS4 and leave in standby, check NAT type etc.).
    But nothing helped.
    Connection test shows NAT Type 2 which is perfectly OK I guess.
    Is this PSN that unstable or what?
    How should I solve this problem?

    I've been having the same problem for over a week, but I think I found the solution to it.Firstly, my internet setup is an old netgear modem-router combo hooked up to a new TP-Link (n) router. The netgear is set to modem only mode. My ps4 is connected wirelessly downstairs.For about 3 months, my ps4 was working normally with no problems, but about a week ago this error code started popping up inconsistently. Sometimes everything was fine, most times it wasn't.I isolated the problem to the PS4-Router communication, as my ps3 (and everything else at home) worked perfectly with no changes to the setup. Possible Solution- Today, I factory reset both devices (Netgear and TP-Link routers) and set them up to the point where they worked normally (with my phone, laptop, etc).Then, I enabled UPnP on BOTH devices, and also Forwarded all the necessary ports for my PS4 on the TP-Link router.I changed the wireless channel on the TP-Link to [1] from [6].I also changed the wireless channel width on it from [auto] to [20mhz]. This automatically reduced my max Tx rate to [130mbps] from [300mbps]. (I suggest doing this manually if it doesn't change automatically).I rebooted the TP-Link router, and started up my ps4 after a few seconds. The system loaded perfectly, PSN signed in instantly, and I played an hour on BF4 with no problems. I also restarted my PS4 again to see whether the settings would 'Stick'. They did, it still ran perfectly. I won't play again for a few hours, but I will report here if it does/doesn't work. Good luck trying my solution, Hope it works for you.Happy Gaming

  • How can I set up a default (pre-recorded) voicemail greeting on iphone 4s?

    How can I set up a default (pre-recorded) voicemail greeting on iphone 4s?i dont want a custom one with my voice i want the pre-recorded where a lady says my number . how do i get that?

    Voicemail is a cell phone carrier function.  Contact your carrier to see if they have this option.  If not, i'm sure you can download a sound file from the internet with a greeting and add your name.  Then play it back on you PC while holding your iPhone near the speaker when recording the greeting to voicemail.

  • I have been exporting lightroom webgaleries to my iweb site without any problem.  Suddenly I get the error message "finder can't complete the operation because some data can't be read or written" - error code -36 - thoughts?

    i have been exporting lightroom web galleries to my iweb site without any problem.  Suddenly I get the error message "finder can't complete the operation because some data can't be read or written" - error code -36 - and the move to the sites folder on my idisk fails..... thoughts?

    Try this community: MobileMe on my Mac: MobileMe: Apple Support Communities.
    And you can continue to use iWeb for some time to come. The following will explain:
    It's now confirmed that iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken.  If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    In addition the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on.
    HOWEVER, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still currently available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those copies still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD.

  • While transferring several files to the G-Raid, the G-Raid device locks up with the following warnings:   "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in (whatever file) can't be read or written (Error code - 36)."

    While transferring several files to the G-Raid, the G-Raid device locks up with the following warnings:   "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in (whatever file) can't be read or written (Error code - 36).” NOt sure this is a G-Raid problem, can anyone help?

    This is likely a problem with the drive itself. This error indicates unspecified I/O errors with the drive, which can be from a hardware fault, or a formatting issue. If the drive has valuable data on it, then try connecting it to another PC to get the data off, and then try fully partitioning and formatting the drive with Disk Utility. If this corrects the error then you should be able to use the drive again as it was likely a formatting issue, but if the problem continues then it is likely a hardware fault and the best solution is to be safe and replace the drive.

  • Trying to copy iPhoto Library to external hard drive for backup.  Error message:  The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "iPhoto Library" can't be read or written (Error code -36).

    Trying to copy iPhoto Library to external hard drive for backup.  Error message:  The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "iPhoto Library" can't be read or written (Error code -36).

    That code is
    -36
    ioErr
    I/O error (bummers)
    Make sure the EHD is formatted OS X Extended (journaled) and run Disk Utilty on the EHD and repair the disk.  If that fails to help I'd try the following:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button,                         
    navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the external HD as the location of the newly rebild library.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
    Note 2:  Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
