Can't set-up scan to email wizard

I have an HP Officejet Pro 8500A910 and trying to set-up the scan to email wizard.  The error message I get is
"Cannot connect the server.  Go back and correct server name and address".  I don't know where and what
the server name and address is and should be.  Can you help?

Hi mulan200032,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you have received a connection error message when trying to enable the scan to email feature of your Officejet 8500A A910 printer.
I am presuming that you have connected the printer to your wireless network. There are several steps I would like you to try please.
Please turn off your printer. 
Please turn off your router.  If your router doesn’t have an on/off switch, please unplug the power cord from the router.
After waiting a full 60 seconds please turn on your router (or plug it back in). 
After the router has completed its startup routine please turn on your printer.
After the printer has completed its startup routine, please test the scan to email feature.  If it works there no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
Please set a manual IP address and manual DNS servers for the printer. I have included a link to another post with the steps, including screen shots on how to do this.   Don’t worry that the screen shots show a Officejet 8600 printer, the steps are the same.
Please test the scan to email feature.  If it works there is no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
Please call HP’s Cloud Services at 1-855-785-2777 if you live in the USA/Canada region. If you live outside the USA/Canada region please click here to find the Technical Support number for your country/region.
Thank you.
Regards,

  • I can't set up a hotmail email!

    Hi,
    I can't set up my hotmail email. I go to setup in the menu, choose setup wizard, than Email setup, and there is the problem. There is no option: "I want to create or add an email address". Only:"I want to use a work email account with a Blackberry Enterprise Server"
    Please help!

    Hi and Welcome to the Community! 
    To use the proprietary RIM Push email capability, you must have an adequate data plan from your carrier. The carriers host BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) for their BB users. Typically, BIS is not available via generic data plans. Many carriers call what is necessary The Blackberry Data Plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier who delivers BIS to their BB users -- contact them for assistance. Once you have a BIS-capable data plan on your BB (at whatever fees your carrier will charge, btw), you will then have Personal Email added to the email setup wizard.

  • I created an Apple ID for my daughter with her own gmail address, but I want her Apple ID and primary email address to be an iCloud email address. How can I do this? I can't set up an icould email address for her without first creating an Apple ID?

    I have created an Apple ID for my daughter with her own gmail address as the primary email address, but I want her Apple ID and primary email address to be an iCloud email address. How can I do this? I can't set up an icould email address for her without first creating an Apple ID right?
    I'm not good with computers so please explain in simple way...:)
    I also wonder what the best way is to set up accounts for children in a family. I dont want them to be able to purchase apps etc through the parents accounts, also some things we like to share as a family and others we don't want to share. Is there any good. clear, simple explanation from Apple Support about these issues? Or best to go to Apple store and go to genius bar or one to one advise?
    thanks

    You can set up an iCloud account which makes the iCloud email address you choose the Apple ID and thus the login for it:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/22283348#22283348
    though I have to say I think it's more sensible if the ID is another address, both for security reasons (so people don't know what the login is) and as a contact address from Apple if the account were to stop working and they needed to contact you. So personally I would to to System Preferences, enter the GMail address which is an ID, and then choose a nerw @icloud.com address.
    If she has her own iCloud account she will need either her own computer or her own user account on your Mac to be able to make use of it. You should note that under Apple's terms of use Apple IDs are only available to children of 13 and over.
    As to purchasing apps, this is nothing to do with iCloud: it's iTunes, and the login can be different. So you can all sign into the same iTunes account but have different iCloud accounts. Or she can have her own iTunes account if she is of suitable age (credit card needed for purchasing apps).
    If you have other children you should be aware that any one Mac or device can create only three iCloud accounts - this is tied to the serial number, not the user account, and once reached cannot be bypassed. You can of course sign into an iCloud account created on another device.

  • HT2731 can I set up a second email address on iCloud using the same apple id

    can I set up a 2nd email address on iCloud using the same apple I'd for a 4s iPhone?

    You can create up to 3 alias @icloud.com email addresses for that purpose.  They will all receive email in your existing iCloud inbox and they can be deactivated or deleted if they attract too much spam.  This article explains how to create an alias address: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.

  • Cannot set up scan to email

    Cannot get the setup wizard for scan to email to successfully complete this task.  Tells me that username or password is incorrect but they have been entered correctly.  Have reentered info severat  times.  What do I do?
    Thanks  

    Hello @mkormendy ,
    You can try to set it up without the driver.
    Obtain the printers IP address.
    Go into Setup, then Network, then select View Network Settings.
    Note the IP address.
    On your computer open your preferred web browser. (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, ect..)
    In the URL or address bar type the printers IP address (192.168.x.xx or whatever it may be)
    Press the enter key.
    You should be taken to the printers Embedded Web Server (EWS)
    From here you should see the scan to email setup.
    Go through the setup.
    This will use the printers firmware and bypass using the software.

  • I can't set up my personal email account

    Hi!  am hoping someone might be able to help.  My storm was delivered this morning and I have been unable to set up my personal email accounts through the setup wizard.  I only have the option to set up a work email account using a Blackberry Enterprise server and NOT add or create an account.
    I've already completed the suggestions of a previous post
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/board/message?board.id=9500&thread.id=483
    i.e. setting up mailing account with vodafone and trying to activate on the wireless network but nothing seems to work.  Am I just being too impatient?? Do I have to wait for activation?  Or am I just stupid?!?!?
    Any suggestions much appreciated. 

    Rick you need to call them and let them know you have a new BlackBerry and have them register the PIN and IMEI number on your account, and re-establish the BIS account to your SIM.

  • HP LaserJet 400 MFP M425dw setting up scanning to email

    Hello,
    I want to set up the Scan to email option on our printers however our emails are made through an exchange environment, and I don't see an option about sending scanned emails from an exchange email account. I'm not too sure what port I would need if we have exchange accounts.

    Hi,
    The Laserjet 400 M425dw only support scanning to an email account by using SMTP server.
    If your exchange account does not support SMTP, you will not be able to use the specific feature, I would suggest contacting your IT and check for the SMTP server details, if an SMTP server is not available you will need to use a differnt email account which use an SMTP server.
