Cannot install HP support assistant after upgrading to windows 7 error 1316

After upgrading to Win 7 from Vista I am unable to install the HP support assistant.  First I get this error:  Error 1316 The specified account already exists.  After clicking OK I get the following error msg:  Error: -1603  Fatal error during installation.  Consult windows installer help (MSI CHM) or MSN for more info.  This is then followed up with the following msg:  HP support assistant not installed successfully.  An error occurred during the installation: -3  Then it rolls back the installation and will not install.  HP support assistant was working under Vista.

Did you first go to the Control Panel and make sure that the HP Support Assistant software was not listed (uninstalled)?

    Cannot print a PDF file after upgrading to Windows 8.1
    I can print anything else from either the Desktop or Start but not a PDF.  No error message but just does not print.
    Update: down loaded Adobe Reader which runs on the desktop so when I read a PDF file it now runs on the desktop and I can print it.

  • Cannot install Boot Camp 3.2 upgrade for Windows 7 64 bit

    I recently installed Windows 7 64 bit on my macbook. I also installed Boot Camp 3.0.1 after Windows 7 installation, however, WiFi did not work. Therefore, I needed to upgrade to the latest Boot Camp 3.2. However, when I tried to install Boot Camp 3.2 upgrade for Windows 7 74 bit, I got an error message saying that I needed Boot Camp 3.1 installed first. I CANNOT find Boot Camp 3.1 upgrade for Windows 7 64 bit on Apple website at all. Can someone please help me on this? Is there a way to get the complete Boot Camp 3.2 package that can simply be installed on version 3.0.1??

    here is the link to bootcamp 3.1 for windows 7 64 bit http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1336 .. and no there is no package that can be applied to the windows side to go from 3.0.1 to 3.2

  • Cannot install Canon printer drivers after upgrade to Mountain Lion

    Have got a MG3150 printer from Canon. which is in the supported list. I tried to add the new printer and get the message "can't install the software for the Canon MG3100 series becuase it is not currently available from the Software Update Server.
    It says this,  in spite of giving me a message that they are available  when I attach the printer via USB. This does kick off an attempt to  to seek printer updates.
    So both methods of updating the printer drivers fails.
    I tried trashing the Cannon software and the PPD file for the MG3150 followed by a downloaded reinstall, but no luck.
    Any ideas, please?

  • Can't install Dolby Home Theater after upgrading to windows 10

    HI, I have an Acer v3 572g.  I upgraded from win 8.1 to win 10. Everything is working fine except that the upgrading process completely removed the Dolby Home Theatre application and its drivers and automatically installed the Realtek high definition drivers, after I found out about it, I tried some tips I found online , this is what I did: Downloaded the audio drivers from the Acer website, uninstalled the default audio drivers then, I installed the acer drivers followed the installation process restarted my computer after that, I try to run the DolbyHomeTheater installer found in the PCEE4 folder but after I open the setup file it says: DHT cannot be installed. it doesn't explain why it cannot be installed whatsoever. I can't get this app installed no matter what I do, I've tried different things like installing and uninstalling multiple times, running the setup in compability mode... I don't know what to do now Any help will be very appreciated. 

    Hi! Thanks for your reply, I did exactly what you suggested but it didn't work for me. I'm able to install the audio drivers but when I try to run the Dolby Home Theater setup, it gives the same error "DHT cannot be installed" I now tried running the setup in troubleshoot compability mode it says: "Settings applied: Windows compability mode: Skip version check.Then, I click on test program but get the "DHT cannot be installed" error.After that, Windows compabilty troubleshoot asks me whether the problem is fixed or not, I click "no" then it says: "issues found: Incompatible program: DolbyHomeTheater is incompatible." But the odd thing is I'm able to install Dolby Advanced Audio v2 and not DHT v4,
    I don't know if this is an issue with Windows 10 and Dolby, Acer or both are working on it or something went wrong during the upgrading process...
     

  • Re-installing CS6 on computer after upgrading to windows 8

    hi there
    I was wondering if anybody could help me with this - I had CS6 installed on my computer but then I wiped it and installed windows 8 on it. I transferred CS6 to my external hardrive but when I came to re-install in on my computer it won't work.
    Having researched the problem I see that I should have de-activated it before doing any of the above but its too late for that now!
    So basically wondering how I get CS6 back on the same computer without having de-activated it first?
    thanks

  • No Audio Output after Upgrading to windows 7; Soundblaster Card is installed

    After upgrading to Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit), I found that my speakers (which are built into my HP w2207 monitor) are not recognized.  In the notification area I have the speaker with a red x in it, and it says “No Audio Output Device is installed”.
    I have a HP Pavilion D4890Y with the Sound Blaster Audigy X-FI 24-Bit Xtreme sound card.  I tried looking in Device Manager, and found “Multimedia Audio Controller” under Other, which states no drivers could be found.
    I tried following some of the advice online, and downloaded the latest Realtek High Definition Audio drivers, but and the download seems to run successfully, but I don’t notice any differences.  When I reboot as prompted, I’ve still got the same error.
    I then tried forcing the Audio Device to use a Realtek driver, but Windows protests (saying it’s not sure it’s compatable with my device, and I end up with “Realtek High Definition Audio” under “Sound, video and game controllers”, but it has a yellow exclamation point.  If I click properties, the device status says “This device cannot start (Code 10).” If I try to update the driver I get the message that it cannot find the driver software.   If I uninstall the driver I’m back to the original problem (multimedia audio controller under original devices, with no known drivers).
    I also tried downloading various files from the Creative site, but it’s not clear which one to use, and the 4 or 5 different ones I tried (including their recommended beta version for Windows 7), when each of them opens it says it can’t find any supported devices.
    Suggestions?  Thanks!

    Hi,
    "If the driver is a previous revision install it using the TROUBLESHOOT COMPATIBILITY tool that is part of the Windows 7 OS.
    To use the tool, uninstall any drivers for the sound card you show listed in Control Panel/Programs/Uninstall Programs  list.  Delete the Device from Device Manager. 
    Download the revision of the driver from www.creative.com  website to a folder you've created and placed on your desktop.
    After the driver is downloaded, navigate to the "setup.exe" of the driver and Right Click - select Troubleshoot Compatibility  ----
    Let the compatibility tool select a possible solution then use its suggestion of TRY RECOMMENDED WINDOWS SETTINGS, if it does not find a solution it will submit only CUSTOMIZE SETTINGS and let you install it as you designate."
    The preceding information comes from a Microsoft Windows 7 forum regarding an issue similar to yours.
    the information you provided did verify that it is a sound blaster XiFi Extreme card as checked against the Vendor / Device list.
    regards,

  • Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan

    Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan through Adobe, although Scanner says its combatible with Windows 8. Cannot reinstall drivers because Brother claims they're built-in. Help!

    1. Re: Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan
    Anubha Goel
    I am using a Brother MFC 8460N and on Brother's site it says its compatible with win 8.1 and that the driver is already installed. When I try to scan I am told there is no preset (there was with win 7 though) and I have to "custom scan." When I try that, I hear a sound as if the printer is trying to scan, but the feeder can't pull the paper through. I then get a blank .pdf as my scan. Thanks for your advice. I will try that.

    I have contacted three more people that made the upgrade and they have the same problem. My advise is not to upgrade until Apple solves the serious issue, I would hate to have to re-install Outlook...

    I can send e-mails just fine with apple mail on yosemite...
    Might not be a generic problem but rather a personal problem..
    You should try find a fix rather than waiting on apple.
    Hopefully somebody can help you out.
    More than happy to help with your settings/preference pain... And compare mine with yours...
    If you send some screenshots... I can send you my equivalent... So maybe you can figure it out.
    Is it a gmail or icloud email acount? Can be of more help if it is.

  • No audio device installed after upgrading to windows 7???

    after upgrading to windows 7 audio is not working error audio device not install driver error...

    Hi,
    You will need to identify your CPU and chipset. CPU-z is a free and safe utility that can do that for you.
      If your system has an Intel chipset with disccrete or onboard graphics or an NVIDIA chipset with onboard graphics, then the drivers are here at this Realtek download page.
    If your notebook is an AMD CPU and NVIDIA chipset, with a discrete graphics module installed, then the driver for your Conexant CX20549-12 will be here.
    Post you results here in your thread so others rsearching for the same information can benefit from it. 
    Best regards,
