Connecting Shared Deskjet from Desktop to new Laptop that has Windows 7

I have XP on my desktop with a shared printer (deskjet 5550), my new laptop finds the printer, but cannot locate drivers when it trys to install it over the network.  Please help.

Thanks to those who have helped in this particular problem.
A good friend of mine heard about my problem (knowing what I am like with technology) forwarded a u-Tube link which gives a good demonstration of how simple it actually is to transfer your i-Tunes library into a new computer.
As it may help others, I am including the link here:

    It looks like the CD is damaged.  You could try copying the entire CD on to your hard disk in a temporary folder and then launch the setup.exe file by double clicking on it.
    Can you do this?  Please post back.
    Whether 5 can run in Windows 7 is something I don't know.  You just have to try it.

  • Im trying to install my photoshop CS2 onto a new laptop that runs windows 8.

    When i put the disk in it starts and then cant go any further.  How can i get this version loaded on my laptop?

    The activation servers for CS and CS2 have been retired. Adobe has issued a non-activation copy free of charge for you.
    Download it and use the serial number listed next to the download link. Do not use your original serial.

  • How to install HP Deskjet 990cxi on my new laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium on an AMD 64

    I have spent two days trying to install my excellent HP Deskjet 990cxi on my new laptop running Win7 Home Premium on an AMD 64-bit processor.  I want to do two things:
    to set the printer up to run direct from a USB port on my laptop.  Having done this, I then want
    to set the printer up on BT Home Hub Type 2A, connected through the hub's USB, as a network computer.
    So far under windows, this has proved a huge problem.  It seems that the printer settings file is in 32-bit, but in the attempt to install the printer through the Windows "add printer" in Devices and Printers, and after a Windows update on the program to find Deskjet 990c, I run into a brick wall with the printer failing to install.  I get the following message: "Printer driver was not installed.  Access is denied  ".  Yet I am loading the printer drivers as Administrator.
    By contrast, I also run Ubuntu 11.04 linux on this computer under Windows.  
    Ubuntu loaded the 990cxi drivers in an instant when it was connected via USB to the laptop; and more importantly,
    Ubuntu set the printer us as a network printer running off the BT Home Hub type 2A and it worked perfectly.  I even tested it by sending a graphics file from my garden to the printer indoors and the quality was perfect.
    So the observation is this: If Ubuntu can load both printer settings on the same laptop, why is Windows 7 such a trial?  Can HP do anything about this?

  • I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library.  However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

    I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library.  However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library. 
    I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over.  Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over?  I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another.  Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

    I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    There is no Info tab in Mavericks

  • Using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook

    When using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro, that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook, will emails, contacts and calendar entries be moved to Outlook on the new MacBook or into Mail, Contacts and Calendar?

    I doubt they will. But then I'm not sure as I used a migration program once about 18 years ago and totally FUBARed the system I had at that time and I've never used one again.
    For me the reason to have a new system is to start fresh. Installing only program that I now use and manually copying data over from the older system.
    Not sure your older version of Outlook, and the outlook mail boxes, are compatible with Office/Outlook for Mac 2011.
    A better place to ask this question would be on the MS Office for Mac forums.
    Hope it all works out for you.

    You might want to take a look at Printopia....although you may find that you need to have the printer connected directly to your computer for this work.
    If you try it out, please post back with your results.

  • Missing songs when transferring from old to new laptop

    Hi
    I have just moved my songs from old to new laptop.  Unfortuantely it has not copied all of them over, when I try to play in itunes it asks me to locate them.  I have checked what has copied over and it has definately left them off, problem is it's left off quite a lot.  Was there something that I should have done on the old laptop before copying them to an external device?
    sue

    To do that, you need to go to "/Applications/System Preferences" then go to the "Accounts" prefpane, then click on the user you want to delete, then click on the minus button in the bottom left corner of the window, but make sure you are logged in as the good user to do this and that the good user is an administrator.
