Error Message "feature has been locked by system administrator"

I recently moved and tried to reconnect my priniter to the new wireless network but I get an error message saying, "this feature has been locked by your system administrator or person who the person who setup the printer." When I set up the priniter it did not ask me for a password and I have no idea how to unclock the wireless wizard. HELP!

You might have had a nice neighbor who did that for you. 
What printer do you have?
You could try restoring the printer to factory.  That feature is in the settings menu on most printers.

  • This feature has been locked

    My printer is showing the following message:  "The feature has been locked by the system administrator or the person who set up the printer."   This message shows up on my network connection page, fax set up page, etc.   How do I remove it?  I'm the only one who uses this computer, and I did not lock it... at least not knowingly.
    Thanks in advance for any help with this matter!!!

    Hi @KarenSel,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I noticed that you are getting the error, "this feature has been locked", with your printer, and I am happy to look into this for you!
    For further assistance, I will need to know: a) The Product/Model Number of your printer. Follow instructions in this link. Finding Your HP Product Model Number. b) If the printer is able to make copies. c) If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.

  • Is this a genuine error message 'ipad has been infected with potential virus'

    II was just about to watch a film through my iPad and a new screen opened 'phone updating.com' and the message read 'Virus warning, ipad has been infected with potential virus.  Click the ok button to scan your iPhone now.'
    I didn't press ok and it wouldn't let me cross out so I checked and updated to the latest version (8.2) and when my ipad restarted, safari opened it on the same error page.  I then went to settings and cleared my Safari history which thankfully clearly the page.
    My concern now is what if I have something bad (virus?) on my iPad? Or im hoping that because I didn't click okay that all is okay again.
    can anyone advise if they have come across anything similar or if I need to do something else?
    MAny Thanks

    Thanks, that's what I thought.  Do you know if there was any other way that I could have cleared the message other than by clearing my safari history, and more importantly, as I didn't click okay, would this have stopped anything else happening to my ipad?

  • InfoPath form, rich text fields, "There was a form postback error" InvalidOperationException, There has been an error while processing the form

    Using InfoPath 2013 browser enabled form.
    I am getting the above error on ALL Infopath Designed Rich Text fields, where the "Cannot be blank" attribute is set.
    To reproduce it, I create a custom list and custom list form with InfoPath 2013. I add 2 Rich Text fields and enable "cannot be blank". To raise the error, I put some data in the RT field. Skip to another field (so focus is changed and a postback
    occurs), then back to original field to delete the contents (to raise the validation).
    I originally thought it was associated with the HTMLCHKR.DLL not being registered (and I have re-registered it just in case), but the exception I get from the ULS logs reads (it is from a list AFTER I have re-registered the DLL):
    There was a form postback error. (User: 0#.w|myDomain\jc, Form Name: Template, IP: , Request: h t t p ://MyWebApp/MySite/Lists/rtAfterHtmlCHkrReg/Item/newifs.aspx?List=2212ff41-77b4-445b-931b-d7e538c9da91&Source=h t t p://MyWebApp/MySite/Lists/rtAfterHtmlCHkrReg/AllItems.aspx&RootFolder=&Web=3db49106-bdca-47bb-b4cd-a549d2d86aa7,

    I noticed that errors associated with the HTMLCHKR.DLL not being registered would have some sort of COM exception (example: TYPE_E_LIBNOTREGISTERED or REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)
    I also should mention that this problem started happening about 3 weeks ago. We have extended the web application to handle HTTPS on the intranet zone (we had a reverse proxy project that did not eventuate) - would that cause something? How can I do further
    checking?

    Hi,
    I have done a test in my SharePoint, and I met the same issue with you.
    I created a custom list and custom list form with InfoPath 2013. I added 2 Rich Text fields and enabled "cannot be blank".  I put some content in the RT field, then delete the contents, I got the error message:"there has been an
    error while processing the form."
    Here is a similar post said that executing the command: regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\
    OFFICE14\htmlchkr.dll" will solve the issue.

    But I just disabled "cannot be blank", and it solved the issue.

    I have MacKeeper installed
    Oh dear.
    Many users will see references to an application called MacKeeper on various web sites and via pop-ups on their browser. Not only is it expensive for what it purports to do (freeware applications that do the same or more are readily available), it can sometimes install itself without the user realising it, and it can be very tricky to get rid of.
    Most positive reviews of it have been found to have been paid for by Zeobit (developers of MacKeeper) in the form of ‘free upgrades’ etc. For example (posted by fellow contributor Softwater), on their Facebook page and on their webpage they have this apparent endorsement from UNC Charlotte:
    https://discussions.apple.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-18670779-12515 7/450-259/Screen+Shot+2012-06-17+at+17.04.04.png
    Softwater contacted the Director of IT at the College of Arts and Architecture UNC Charlotte, about whether they endorse MacKeeper and his response, quoted here, was:
    No, please do not download and install MacKeeper. We have seen problems with this software in the past.
    MacKeeper has been described by various sources as highly invasive malware* that can de-stablize your operating system, adding that it is unethically marketed, with a history of making false advertising claims, by a company called Zeobit and a rip-off.
    For more details about Zeobit’s alledgedly fraudulent advertising and paid-for ‘reviews’, and their dubious marketing practises, read this:

    Further opinion on it and how to uninstall MacKeeper malware can be read here:
    http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/09/21/how-to-uninstall-mackeeper-malware/
    MacKeeper have recently said that the uninstaller from here:
