How do I set my firewall settings in Avasti to allow communications between my HP 8600 and my computer

Something to Consider:
If you are talking about "Avast!" Security Software, either the free or the paid version, the following may apply to you:
There are three main levels of Security in the Avast! software:  Home, Work, and Public
Home is the setting many people use when "at home", that is, connected to the home network.  The home network is sometimes defined as the "192.168" network:  these are the computers and printers that you have and use in your home environment.  The network is (most usually) private and (should be) secured with with a passphrase at your router.  The Avast! Software sees the "Home" network as a "safe" environment:  devices connected within the "Home" network are allowed to "talk" (communicate) with one another without undue restrictions.
Work is the next setting.  The software places some restrictions on this level of communication.  Home users can certainly use this setting -- in many (most) cases, the "Work" setting is a solution that provides for communication and a bit more security for the home network and its devices.
Public is the strictest setting and is meant to keep your computer safe in a public place:  the library, coffee shop, on a street corner.  Outside "prying eyes" are prevented from peeping and outside communications are restricted.
If you have set (or left) your Avast! software set to Public, or even Work (and you do not know how to handle the restrictions), then you may have simply locked out the communication between the printer and the computer(s) on your home network.
Open your Avast! Software and set the security level to either "Home" or "Work".
You can find out more about how to use the software settings at the Avast! website.
Advanced Users Only - You will  know if you changed the Rules... this is not something one does by accident.
If you have changed the rules within the settings, you may have locked yourself out.  Make sure you have both "in" and "out" traffic settings adjusted correctly for each rule you change / adapt / add.
Kind Regards,

  • HT5429 How can I set back phone settings to go from a searched location in safari to apple maps rather than google directions?

    How can I set back phone settings to go from a searched location in safari to apple maps rather than google directions?

    Click Here enter destinations, link to page in iWeb or iFrame it by clicking on "Link to Page" from Google map. This may seem ironic but if you are looking for something the best way to find it is by searching Google. For instance Googling "google map directions" will send you to referenced page. for a sub-$20 app I find it hard to believe you find it hard to believe Apple hasn't integrated this feature into the software.
    Hope that helps!

  • How could I set the proxy settings for just some URLs and not for all?

    Hello,
    I am using HttpURLConnection to establish a HTTP connection . The connection pass through a proxy, and it requires security.
    I know that I can set the proxy settings in the system properties, and this works perfect.
    But I don't want to set the proxy settings in the system properties, because this proxy settings will be for ALL the URLs, and I just want for a few URLs.
    How could I set the proxy settings for just some URLs and not for all?

  • How do I change my firewall settings to allow Spotify?

    I get a message pop up that says.... A firewall may be blocking Spotify. Please update your firewall to allow Spotify (error 101)
    Please help I am so terrible with anything other then the basics.
    I found my firewall settings but I could only figure out how to turn them on and off. This did not help.
    I need it explained to me in the most simpilist of ways.
    Thank you

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -ef 
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    { sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; echo; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; echo; sudo crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -ef 
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    { launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'; echo; crontab -l 2> /dev/null; } | open -ef 
    Step 4
    ls -A /e*/{cr,la,mach}* {,/}Lib*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la* 2> /dev/null | open -ef  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of login items' | open -ef 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • How do I set the conversion settings for Word to ignore outline autonumbering for headings?

    I have a user manual in Word that uses outline autonumbering for Heading 1, Heading 2, etc. For example, "1.0 Introduction," "1.1 System Settings" and so on).
    I know when setting the conversion settings for FrameMaker, you can select the Ignore Autonumber option in the Conversion Settings dialog to keep only the paragraph content. I don't see anything like this for the Word Conversion Settings. Does this capability exist?

    To clarify:
    I have my paragraphs in Word set up with the required numbering properties using Word's Style settings. In Word, I want the headings to be numbered 1.0, 1.1, 1.1.1, etc. because the intent is for the reader to read through the manual like a book - from start to finish.
    I'm single-sourcing my manual from Word into RoboHelp to generate an online help package. However, I do not want my RoboHelp headings to be numbered because the user may or may not read each topic in order (in other words, they may only need to read what's in section 3.2, but won't get there by reading sections 1.0 through 3.1 first). I might also clarify that each heading is its own topic - so Section 3.2 would be a separate topic from 3.0 and 3.1.
    So for example, in Word, it reads like this:
         "1.0 Introduction
         [content goes here]
         1.1 System Requirements
         [content goes here]
         1.2 References
         [content goes here]"
    And in RoboHelp, I want it like this
         "Introduction
         [content goes here]"
         ---[end of topic]---
         "System Requirements
         [content goes here]"
         ---[end of topic]---
         "References
         [content goes here]"
         ---[end of topic]---
    Does that make sense?
    So how do I keep the numbering in my Word document, but set up the Conversion Settings in RoboHelp to ignore those numbers and only include the text following the autonumber? I have been able to do this when single-sourcing a FrameMaker book into RoboHelp.
