Cannot scan to computer with HP Deskjet 1510 due to missing scan icon ?

Hi there,
I have recently purchased a HP Deskjet 1510 series printer ;
the installation of the drivers on my Windows XP laptop went well, however now when I double-click the HP Deskjet 1510 series icon on my desktop, the panel that opens up contains the PRINT icon but NOT the SCAN icon ..
Does anyone know what I could do please ?
Thanks for the help,
R.R

Hi Jamieson
sorry for the late reply but I was away for a while.
As per your advice, I've run the HP Print and Scan Doctor, but on the final screen, it says that it is "unable to find
the HP scan application software on [my] computer".
This is strange, considering that the installation software came out of the box from the CD..
Screen captures here after:
(I ran the tool twice, with the 2 different sources but got the same result twice):
The Scan Doctor finally recommended me to download and install the latest Full Feature software from HP Customer
Care:
So I installed the latest Full Feature software, but when I ran it, the install failed (!).
Screen capture:
Right now, I can scan using mspaint, but I really would like to have the SCAN button in the HP panel.
Do you think there is a quick fix, or should I give up looking for a solution and simply use mspaint ?
Regards

I cannot "scan to computer" with my HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g ) - The option has been enabled

I cannot "Scan to Computer" with my HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911g - The option has been enable in the HP Utility - but I receive a communication error message - I'm connected to the computer using a Linksys Wireless Router and I am using OS X 10.5.8 - I can print wirelesly and I can use Web Scan, so the connection is good.
How do I resolve the issue?

petergole,
To make sure we aren't dealing with a software problem lets try to uninstall with the 'scrubber option' like this:
1. Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller and click Continue
2. Highlight your device on the left pane
3. Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall
4. There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
5. Click Continue and let it finish
Now, run a Software Update. This can be done by clicking the Apple in the top left of the screen then clicking Software Updates.
Next, let's reset the printing system:
Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
- Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
- Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Default tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
Finally, use this guide to reinstall: http://goo.gl/Na4Qm

Can't Scan to computer with HP 8620 on Yosemite

I just purchased a new HP OfficeJet Pro 8620. When I try to scan to computer, either through the software on my mac or via the panel on the printer, I receive the messages "Scan to Computer Cannot Be Enabled" or when from the printer "Scan Unsucessfull".
This 8620 replaced my HP LaserJet CM1017. I had no problems scanning and printing with this laserjet on the same Mac.
Any help would be appreicated.
P.S. I tried the tips from this link...
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c04090234&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
Step one: Check the Scan to Computer setting
On the main menu, click the Apple icon (), and then click System Preferences.
Click Print & Scan.
Under Printers, click your printer, if you see more than one printer.
Click Open Print Queue. The print queue for your printer opens.
Click Printer Setup or Settings. A new window opens.
Click the Utility tab, and then click Open Printer Utility. The HP Utility window opens.
Under Scan Settings, click Scan to Computer.
At the top of the screen, click the check box next to Enable Scan to Computer, if it is not already checked. Scan to Computer is enabled.
When I get to step 6, there's no Utility tab.

Hi there @faruz

Repair disk permissions
Restart your Mac
Re-add the printer, here's the full driver: HP Officejet Pro 8620 e-All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Drivers

You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 90 days.

So i signed into my other itunes account to download some purchase i had made on that account, went to sign back into my new account and download purchases i had made on my iphone adn it tells me "You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 90 days.". This is a shared family computer with multiple Apple IDs being used on it. Not cool apple. This needs to be figured out. Not acceptable for families that have more than one apple ID to have to wait 3 months to download old purchases. Get real. Any way i can 'override' this?

Can't play my library: "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID...you can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 88 days." Got a fix?

Since my daughter burned a CD from my computer using our shared libraries I cannot play my library. This pops up: "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 88 days." I can get as far as viewing my library but listening is denied by this pop-up. Can anyone help, please? I just noticed my (this) computer is not showing as registered to my account. Hmmm....a clue perhaps?

Do you have a question?

You can use iTunes Match on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 5 days.

I only have 1 Apple ID. I turned off iTunes Match on my iMac, and now I cannot turn it back on. I get this error when I try to just turn iTunes Match back on, on the same computer, with the same Apple ID that I used orginially to subscribe to iTunes Match:
This computer is already associated with an Apple ID.
You can use iTunes Match on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 5 days.
I checked for iTunes updates. None are available since I am using the latest.
I stopped/started iTunes. I rebooted the iMac.
NOTHING HELPS!!!!!!!!
I have a Mac Mini and I use the same Apple ID on iTunes there. I was able to turn iTunes Match off and back on with no trouble at all but my iMac refuses to allow me to turn on iTunes Match.
Now what do I do?

Unless you really only have one AppleID that you use with the iTunes Store there's really nothing you can do. In the case of having only one AppleID you should contact iTunes Store support, since that would be a server-side problem.

HT4913 iTunes Match:You can use iTunes Match on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 85 days. What can I do?

I'm subscribed to iTunes Match but when I turn it on I get this message:You can use iTunes Match on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 85 days. What can I do?

I had this happen back in December/January. I sold my MBP that I used to subscribe to iTunes Match back in December. In January, I bought a used MB and tried to use iTunes Match on it. I was told I had to wait nearly two months to use it on the new computer. I waited and was finally able to use it in the new computer.\
Sadly, this has more to do with the content providers (Record lables / movie studios) than it has to do with Apple impsoing the restrictions.

HT201272 You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 88 days.

What is going on with my apple ID. I only have one, the iMac is only associated with this ID, yet i get this message after evry thing i try to download from the store......You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 88 days.

Hello BW1968,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID

Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days.
Best of luck,

You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 60 days. Why?

You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 60 days. How can I use more than one apple ID with one MacBook pro ?

Hi
No - that is the issue - both my husband and I use the same computer and want to be able to use our individual Apple IDs so can access our download content e.g. I-books that we have purchased through our other MAC devices such as I-Pad. In the past, we had four people using one computer with no problem regarding Apple ID. In the newer operating system, we are now restricted to one at a time - it means one of us is blocked out from accessing our content for a period of 90 days. Have you any suggestions on how we can both use our individual Apple IDs with the same lap-top? We have set up discrete accounts so we log on to the computer individually. Many thanks for any help.

You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 74 days.

Cannot shut off computer with powerr on/off switch

Dear friendly Computer Geeks,
My computer is an HP desktop , product s5-1110, microprocessor Intel Pentium CPU g620 @ 2.60 GHz , Bios 7.16 , usb input device, hard drive st31000524as, windows OS 7.
The computer crashed , I could not determine the reason. I was able to save my personal files by starting the computer in Safe mode. Then I loaded the virgin OS 7 as provided by HP in the hard drive partition.
It would not start in the regular way. I then initialized it , pressed the escape key to enter in safe mode, select restore default values then proceed to start windows in regular mode. A problem keeps coming on. After 20 minutes of operation I cannot stop the computer with shut off command or with the Power on/off switch. I must remove the power cord and when I want to restart it I must do as described before.
I would appreciate your help in resolving this troublesome problem.
I appreciate your courtesy and cooperation . I send my Thanks and my best

Cannot activate my computer with my Adobe ID after having activated my ebook reader

I cannot activate my computer with my Adobe ID after having activated my ebook reader with the same ID. I get the error message: "You cannot authorize this computer with an Adobe ID that was previously used to authorize another compuer or moblie device". Shouldn't it be possible to use the same ID on more than just one device? I would like to read the same book on my ebook reader and on my computer.

Unfortunately, you de-authorized your computer but NOT your items.
Once a book is accessed on one ID, it cannot be used on another ID.
I am afraid you may be stuck ... if you are lucky the vendors will give you a second chance.
~~~
This is a vicious trap that Adobe lays for unsuspecting customers.
When you register 'without ID', ADE creates an anonymous/implicit ID with limited powers (eg can't be used to share with other devices).
Whenever you first load a DRM book, that copy of the book is associated with whatever ID the computer is registered to at the time.
Any book you load while this anonymous ID is active gets associated with that ID, and can't be read on any other device.
When you properly register your computer with a real ID, that old anonymous ID is lost.
Now you don't have any devices that can read the book.
I think that even if you de-authorize again and revert to anynomous authorization, it will be a different anonymous ID, but worth a try.
Not helpful for you if reverting to anonymous doesn't help, but general comment that might help other readers .....
The only way I know round this is to use a DRM stripper such as epubee BEFORE you deauthorize the device.
I do NOT advocate using such code to get around the valid limitations placed on a DRM book.
However, where the problem arises only because of the ineptness of Adobe's ADEPT DRM infrastructure and its implementation,
such a measure is totally justifiable.

Officejet Pro 8600 scan to computer with Mac OS 10.6.8

I have reinstalled the software, selecting HP Recommended Software. I have restarted the computer and done a software update. I can print from my computer to the printer. But I cannot "scan to computer" using the touchpad on the front of the printer. When I select it, the message says "No Computer Found." When I open the HP utility on the computer, under scan settings there is NO "scan to computer" option to select, even though the printer says I need to select it.
I can scan a document using by opening the settings on the computer, but I cannot figure out how to tell it to use the document feeder. So I figured I would try it from the printer itself. But I cannot get that to work.

Try scanning FROM your Mac. Use Image Capture app in your Applications folder.
Click once on the scanner on the left side, then click on Show Details along the bottom. Along the right side you will see LOTS of options for scanning and saving.

Scanning, Copying issues with HP deskjet printer 4515

I bought a brand new HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4518 e-All-in-One Printer 2 weeks back and was able to setup the printing facility in the printer quite easily. But I didnt try the scan and copy features. Today when I try to scan a picture, the printer took a very long time and was displaying the message "Scanning in progress" but really nothing happened. Same is the case with copying as well.
I did try the web scan feature from my printer's webpage (I have connected my laptop and the printer through WiFi), but that also didnt help.
Any ideas on how to solve these issues ?

Welcome to the forums @vijaybadri ,
I read your post about your Deskjet Ink Advantage 4518 not scanning or copying correctly for you. I have a couple of suggestions for you to try. If they do not help, I'd then recommend calling HP directly to see what your options are for a replacement or a trade in.
1. Update the Firmware: Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates
2. Power reset:
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
3. Ensure the printer is plugged in directly to the wall outlet, avoiding power bars and surge protectors. This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help greatly.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.
Have a great day
