HP Device Toolbox software Error Unable to connect to the printer

Hi guys,
I'm currently in bit of a nightmare with my HP Laserjet 100 color MFP M175nw.
Basically I have upgraded to a new wireless router and since doing this my HP Laser Jet refuses to work / connect to the wireless network.
I have literally tried just about evey thing I can to get it to work, thoroughly through the manual, uninstalled and reinstalled the software about 12 times, tried firewalls on and off, tried security on the router on and off, tried WPS mode, tried manually entering in the IP address into the printer all without luck. You can see my dedicated thread here
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/HP-LaserJet-Pro-100-color-MFP-M175nw-un...
So currently I have the printer connect to the computer via USB and it works, so I decided to try using the HP Device toolbox software to see if it would give me any more options to try and when I run this software I get
Error: Unable to connect to the printer, make sure your printer is properly connected and powered on and then try to open the HP device toolbox again. Arg!!!
My new router is a Billion 7800DXL, my old router which worked in wireless mode was also a Billion 7300g.
Any help would be great really stuck here

Hello tf22raptor.
I see that you're now experiencing an issue getting the Device Tool box to run. I will try and assist with this.
After reviewing this post and the other thread, I have a few things you can try.
1) Run MS Fix it utility to uninstall the software: Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled.
(This is to make sure the software is completely removed and conflicts in the registry get resolved)
2)Msconfig: press windows key and R on the keyboard> in run box type "msconfig"> on window select "services tab"> check box next to "hide all MS services> press disable all> go to "startup" tab> press disable all> press apply and ok at the bottom> this should prompt a PC restart.
Please restart.
3) Re-install via USB
4) Try running the device toolbox now
5)If still having issues installing wireless, you may have to contact the router manufacture.
I hope this helps you out. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.
I worked on behalf of HP.

We are using the Azure server for our web services. Server is generating an error "Unable to connect to the remote server". What is this error means

Hello,
Did you means that you use the Windows Azure Virtual Machine DNS name as the server name in the Reporting Server Web Services URL?
For example:
Report server:http://uebi.cloudapp.net/reportserver
Report manager:http://uebi.cloudapp.net/reports
If you want to connect to Report Manager on the virtual machine from a remote computer, you should create a virtual machine TCP Endpoint and open the port in the virtual machine’s firewall. By default, the report server listens for HTTP requests
on port 80.

Possible workaround for: Launch Debugger Error "Unable to connect to the RDS server"

I do not yet have a reproducible case for this. *Sometimes* ColdFusion Builder throws the "Unable to connect to the RDS server" error, when attempting to start a debug session against a remote server. However, "RDS Dataview" and "RDS Fileview" views correctly list the servers and their related data/file, and testing RDS connection result is "Test connection was successful". The workaround is:
1. Login to the ColdFusion Administrator
2. Navigate to "Debugger Settings" page (beneath "Debugging & Logging")
3. Click on "Stop Debugger Server" -or- "Restart Debugger Server"
4. Restart ColdFusion Application Server
Notes:
a) Step #3 must be done via ColdFusion Administrator, not via ColdFusion Admin API (stopLineDebugger()|restartLineDebugger())
b) Step #4 can be done via ColdFusion Administrator -or- ColdFusion Builder
c) Note that there is a CF9 Release Note for Bug #78488: "When a server having "Windows service option" ENABLED is added as a remote server, then Start-Stop-Restart operation cannot be done on it." However, I've found that "Restarting" a remote server, that is running as a Windows service, is possible in ColdFusion Builder (at least this is so on standalone developer edition). Like Bug #78488 says, I am unable to "Stop|Start" a remote server that is running as a Windows service. I'm just mentioning all of this, due to my suggestion in "b", that CF can also be restarted via ColdFusion Builder.
It is interesting that attempts to stop|restart the debugger server, via CF Admin API, do not resolve the issue. So, it seems that the "Stop Debugger Server" and "Restart Debugger Server" buttons, in CF Admin, are doing more than calling the corresponding CF Admin API methods.
Attached is an image of the error.
Just posting all of this as an FYI, in case it helps anyone.
Thanks!,
-Aaron Neff
(OH.. I'm unable to attach images at this time *DOH!* ..well, I'll try to remember to update this post w/ the image, once I see that attachments are allowed.)
I'll try to describe the error message window:
- It is 494x452 pixels
- Title of the window is "Error occurred while launching the Debugger"
- Body content of the window is as follows:
Unable to connect to the RDS server 'ServerNameHere'
Ensure that the server is currently running and that line debugging and RDS are enabled. You may also need to check your RDS connection settings in Eclipse to ensure that they are correct.
Error Message:
-1:Error connecting to JVM for debugging at localhost:5005. Could not attach to the VM at port 5005. You must specify this debugger port in the JVM settings of your application server, for example: -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5005. You will also need to make sure that another debugger is not currently connected to the CF JVM at the same port (5005).

Unable to connect to the server.. Error Data : API_NOT_INITIALIZED on CUEAC Server Installation

Hi all,
I am trying to install CUEAC Attendant Server on Windows Server 2008 R2, tried several times. First, it got stuck on the Databahse Wizard. After three reinstalls, it still got stuck but somehow built the configure database named CFGATT and then started installing TSP. Finally, the setup has been finished and I went to the WebAdmin page. After I entered the login information, it gave an error : "
Unable to connect to the server.. Error Data : API_NOT_INITIALIZED"
I searched through the forum and found this topic :
https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/1215763
Here I found that there's a bug and I tried to do the fix myself as instructed :

However, it changed nothing, looking forward to your responses.

Fikri,
It is not working as this is not a supported environment, the current release is not supported on Windows Server 2008 R2.
The next release (April 2013) will support that version of Windows Server.

Community Publishing-"Unable to connect to the CPS server" Error

I am trying to connect to Community publishing.
I download the Community Publishing Air app, but when I put in my username/password,
I get this error "Unable to connect to the CPS server. Please make sure your firewall settings allow access to this url:
http://cps.corp.adobe.com/nioamfpoll".
I have updated Air, but got the same behavior.
I am running osx (10.6.6) on a 8 core Xeon.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Clay

Hi Clay,
Do you have a firewall, or are you behind a corporate firewall that blocks certain ports on your machine?
What do you see when you visit this URL?
http://cps.corp.adobe.com
How about the following URL?

"Unable to connect to the BlackBerry ID server. Please try again. (50500)"

We have a user that is continually getting asked to verify his blackberry ID. Whenever the device turns on, tries to access apps etc.
Whenever he types in his correct Blackberry ID details (verified as we are able to login at http://au.blackberry.com/bbid.html without any issues, both on PC and from the devices browser itself) we are met with the following error;
Unable to connect to the BlackBerry ID server. Please try again. (50500)
We have tried nearly every possible way to get around this, tried seperate BBID's (none work), different networks, resetting passwords, clearing browser cache, removing wifi networks, battery pulls etc etc. We were resigned to the fact that the device would have to be wiped however we cant even connect it to Link to take a backup without it saying "please sign in with your blackberry id on your device" within the Link window in order to backup certain stuff.
Can anyone recommend anything we can do to either fix this issue, or try and allow us to take a full backup - (note; we have already tried disabling all networks on the device and no internet connectivity on the PC its connected to and trying to run a backup as well but to no avail).

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Here is a KB that discusses that error:
KB33916 "Unable to connect to the BlackBerry ID Server (50500)" is displayed when attempting to change the BlackBerry ID Password or Recovery Question on the BlackBerry 10 smartphone
Unfortunately, it has nothing useful (except for at least knowing that BB knows of the issue).
You might try some of the things from this "sticky" post:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-World/How-to-regain-access-to-your-BBID/td-p/25467...
Otherwise, you might need to ring up your mobile service provider and convince them to escalate you to formal BlackBerry support.
Good luck and let us know!

Nokia Messaging Email - Unable to connect to the s...

Every time I try to add my corporate email to nokia messaging I receive this error:
Unable to connect to the server. Please try again later.
I confirm that the email address and the password are 100% correct. I confirm my phone setup and internet work perfectly becasue I successfully added another 3 email acounts.
ANYBODY - PLEASE HELP!

I decided to revisit this topic out of curiosity and managed to get it working! I solved it with a variation of post #9 by Tbosh.
As you repeat his step #1, take note of the subdomain of the URL, in my case it began with http://netac3.vie....
When you get to the step where he mentions
https://netac5.vie.hosting.nokia.com/account/addEmailMoreInfoNoCorpSuppo...
replace the subdomain with yours, so in my case the link became
https://netac3.vie.hosting.nokia.com/account/addEmailMoreInfoNoCorpSuppo...
I suggest you perform the process on your desktop, it's easier than on your mobile device.

Unable to connect to the CDDB using iTunes 10.6.1.

When I put my CD in and try to get the track names, I get this error:
Unable to connect to the CDDB server. the network cannot be reached.
The internet is fine, I checked the firewall and I unistalled/ reinstalled iTunes, but this error keeps popping up.
I was able to connect late week and retrieve track names, but yesterday and today the same error. Any suggestions?

I have same problem but I am on a PC. Everytime I try to get track names I get the CDDB server error. I have an interenet connection and can upgrade itunes (which seems to me that the application knows I have an internet connection) but I continue to have problems with track names and it seems artwork as well.

Good Morning.
I had the same problem and I had the same IE 6, the problem was the translation between the IE6 from http and https, to solve it you just need to open your url typing
https:url:port, do no forget to put the s after the http, with this my problem was solved.

Unable to connect to the Essbase server from Admin console

Hi,
I have installed Essbase Server 9.3, Client 9.3 and Administration Server 9.3 in my laptop.
The Essbase server is working fine. I am able to see all the sample applications from Excel add in. (This mean client is also working fine).
But, the problem is when i try to connect to the Essbase server, its not allowing me by producing an error:
"Unable to connect to the Essbase server please check the user name & password"
username: admin
password; password.
i tried several times...but its not working.
Please advise me.
FYI, The admin server service is started already.

Hi Subrahmanyam,
Here , there are 2 things
1. Check, your essbase server is up and running ,and your admin service is up. Now , when you open the 'essbase admin console ' , provide user name and password as
admin
password
2. After you are connected to the console i.e admin console .
You see
enterprise view -> essbase analytic server -> under this , you might see your host name ( i.e of your laptop).
This host is your essbase server , and if you want to connect to it .Provide 'username' and 'password' ,which you have give after your essbase installation
So, conclusively, here we are dealing with 2 different sets of 'username' and 'passwords'
In step 1-> to connect to console , use 'admin' 'password'
In step 2-> to connect ot essbase server, use the credentials wchih you had given after installation of essbase server
Hope this clarifies you, as this is a lil confusion to many

Unable to connect to the selected mobile data service, please try again later. If the problem persists please contact your administrator

Since last week or 2 weeks ago, some of our users (both Batam and Singapore) here encountered a problem where they are not able to browse the Internet on their BB as they used to.
Example :
I did a test to browse on their BB
www.cnn.com
they will see below error:
“Unable to connect to the selected mobile data service, please try again later.
If the problem persists please contact your administrator “
However if we use ‘Google’ or ‘Yahoo’ search on the BB and entered ‘CNN’ and run a search on it.
We are able to open the CNN website – from the link result search by Yahoo or Google
It’s also applicable to other websites too.
Any idea?

Unable to Connect to the Data Source with Report Builder when using a closed Excel file

I am using Report Builder 3.0 and to get started I am using an Excel spreadsheet as my data source. I set this up just fine. I can connect successfully if the file is open Excel. But if I close the file, I get the error "Unable to
Connect to the data source".
This is my connection string:
Dsn=Licenses;dbq=C:\USERS\AMEADE\DOCUMENTS\licenses.xlsx;defaultdir=C:\USERS\AMEADE\DOCUMENTS;driverid=790;fil=excel 8.0;maxbuffersize=2048;pagetimeout=5
Works fine if the file is open but stops working when the file is closed. Any idea what I can do?

Hi Alice,
Based on my understanding, when you keep the Excel file open, you can connect to the data source correctly. But when you close the Excel file, the error “Unable to Connect to the data source” is thrown out.
In your scenario, I would like to know if only this Excel comes across this issue. Have you experienced the same issue when you use other Excel files as a data source? As we tested in our environment, we can connect to the data source whether the Excel file
is open. You can refer to this
article to create a data source again then check if you can connect to the data source when the Excel file is closed.
If issue persists, I would suggest you use the
Process Monitor to capture the processes during the connection to the data source. Then check the result of each process to find the exact reason.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,

Unable to connect to the internet please try again later

I have a blackberry torch 9800, I don't have a data plan. I use a wifi signal with other phones, but my blackberry doesn't allow me to browse or view apps online. The error "unable to connect to the internet please try again later" appears. The phone has a clear signal of the wifi, i've tried various other hotspots, my other phones work perfectly. The blackberry says it's connected to the wifi, but no internet browsing is possible. What else can I do other than rip the battery out to re-boot?

well that sux, are there any alternatives?
