Hi,
I have to buy a new computer and I was worned about this happening.  Did you ever get it resolved or do I have to downgrade to XP to keep my printer?
Thank you for your help

  • ITunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows - Fix??

    Hi everyone,
    I had issue after issue with the latest iTunes update (12.1.1) not working on my windows 7. It simply would not lunch when clicking on the shortcut to open.
    After a fair bit of searching I found this alternative version which seemed to do the trick and now it works:
    iTunes 12.1.1.4 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - iTunes64Setup.exe(2015-02-18)

    The "for older video cards" installer - which, like most prior "64 bit" versions of iTunes, is actually a 32 bit application with a 64 bit installer - may be a useful fallback if the full 64 bit version does not install or run correctly.  Although 12.1.1.4 is a major improvement over 12.1.0.71, there are clearly still some lurking incompatibilities with some 64 bit Windows systems/components.  It is, however, a little misleading to say that "iTunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows" - in many cases it works fine without switching to the alternative version.  I have the full 64-bit version of 12.1.1.4 running on three systems - two Windows 7 and one Windows 8.1 - no issues with either installation or operation on any of them.

  • Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

    Question
    better privacy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers? edit
    Details

    As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
    Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
    In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
    C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
    Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
    Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
    If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
    If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
    Any luck?

  • HP Deskjet 2540 scan does not work with windows 10

    my HP Deskjet 2540 scan does not work with windows 10, however, it still does eprinting. i need the solution and i haven't got it.  

    OK, More information.   Installed Media Portal 1.  This works with the tuner card without additional modification, so this appears to be some kind of issue with the software.  Media Portal 1 does install a different version of Direct X, I don't know if that could have anything to do with it, but HP MediaSmart Live TV still comes up with the same error and will not run.

  • Internet Security Suite does not work with Vista 64 bit

    After attempting to use the Chat Help, twice, and spending hours in queue before getting kicked off, I finally called Support to find out why my new Vista computer was not running the Internet Security Suite that I downloaded.  Yes, I found the link to "download to a second computer" and went thru all the steps.  Got lots of positive feedback: little bars were filling in letting me know I was 40%, 72%, 100% done, etc..  Was given a window allowing me to Run or Don't Run the software.  It all seemed to go very well.  However, when the "download and installation" was complete, there was no new software running anywhere on my computer.  Couldn't find it in the Control Panel, the Start menu, or the system tray.  Called Support and spent at least 30 minutes on the phone with a "technician" (and I use that term VERY loosely) who had to have major assistance from a co-worker before he could even start screen-sharing with me and, during the course of our time together, made the following brilliant remarks:
    Upon seeing my desktop wallpaper (which is a lovely photo of some cliffs and a lake - and it came with Vista), he wanted to know what the picture was.  Not where it was taken, but just what it was.  His exact comment was "Does your screen always look like that?".  I had to dig deeper to determine if he was asking about a particular icon or some other computer related concern that he saw (he was "technical support", after all), but he was just asking about the stupid photo.
    He couldn't find the Control Panel in the Start Menu until after trying several times, and then he couldn't navigate to the Programs area very well (I had to give verbal hints as to where it was), and his brilliant comment then was "I really need to go to my mom's house and get on her new laptop and try out Vista."  Can you believe that Verizon has technical support folks who have never used Vista?  It's not like Vista just came on the market yesterday!!
    So, when he finally decided that he was not going to be able to help me, he didn't offer me any other recourse.  He just stated over and over that he was not sure how to solve this issue.  Oh, and this was after I re-downloaded ISS (again, "successfully").  I had to ask if there was someone else there who could possibly help me.  He offered to put me on hold (for the 2nd or 3rd time at this point) to check around.  When he returned to the phone, it was obvious that someone else was operating the mouse in the screen sharing mode because the operator moved confidentially around the screen and went immediately to system properties and saw that I am running Windows 64 bit.  The other operator then told my guy to tell me that ISS only works with Windows 32 bit.  Their final resolution was that I should call billing on Monday and end my subscription.  I think that may be the only good advice I was given that day.
    So, am probably going to renew my trial version of Norton on this new computer and remove ISS from the laptop and put Norton on there as well.  Apparently, they are up to date with this fancy new technology.  At least they probably know about sophisticated and highly technical stuff like desktop wallpaper.

    I have been trying to get somewhere with this Internet Security Suite...and now have come to the conclusion this is not going to work.  Now running Vista 64 bit, and have gotten nothing but the run around to try to complete the downloading of the program.  I've contacted Verizon Tech Support...then tell me that this works with the 64 bit but I need to contact Windows as there is a glitch and they give you the steps to get thru it.  Windows advises me to contact Verizon again as there are no problems with the OS.  Also have contacted Radialpoint and once again nothing...Obviously the Secuirty is not compatible with Vista 64 bit yet, which I just can't believe like you said...it's not like it was just yesterday this OS came out.  My frusteration comes from nobody steps up to take any responsibility as to what the problem is.  If it is not compatible yet then say so and not waste my whole weekend trying to get a straight answer.  I have other computers that I am currently using the service on and do like the program, but as for my Vista 64 bit looks like I may go to Macafee for protection.  It just amazes me as big as Verizon is and as popular this Vista has become they are not on the ball in keeping up with technology.

  • Scanning feature on desk jet 2540 does not work with drivers 990c

    Hello, 
    I reset my computer a few weeks ago ( acer with vista home edition)  . and after i did that my printer driver software stopped working, when i tried to reinstall it. so i have to install with the 990c printer drivers. It prints perfectly BUT the scanner is not recognized at all. 
    the original printer software is not installed on my computer because when its installed the drivers for 990c does not work. once i remove the original HP. Desk Jet Software and install the drivers it works perfectly. 
    Can someone please tell me of a work around to get the scanner portion to work properly 

    Hi @Chayda ,
    I see that you are having issues trying to scan with the Deskjet 990c drivers. When the full software for the printer is installed, the Deskjet 990c driver won't work. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    The Deskjet 990c drivers are preinstall print drivers only. To be able to print and scan, you would have to install the Full Feature Software and Drivers for the Deskjet 2540.
    Here is the URL to download, save and then ran the latest drivers.
    HP Deskjet 2540 All-in-One Printer Drivers.
    Select your operating system, click next and click on the software to download and install.
    You should be able to have more then the one driver installed for the printer and still be able to print with either one.
    To use an alternate print driver for HP printers in Windows Vista:
    1. Click on the Start menu.
    2. Click on Printers.
    3. Click on Add Printer.
    4. Select HP from the first list.
    5. Select Deskjet 990c from the second list or use the Deskjet 450 driver.
    6. Click Next.
    7. Click Finish.
    8. Click Apply.
    9. Click OK to close the window.
    Then you should have the two drivers listed again in the Printers folder.
    You can set the Deskjet 990c or the Deskjet 450 driver as the default printer for printing, when you want to scan select the Deskjet 2540.
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor if you are still having issues using the alternative driver. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a wonderful day!
    Thank You.

  • HP Laserjet P1102 does not work with Windows 10

    I have just upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and whilst my Canon MG6150 works with Windows 10, the other printer HP Laserjet P1102 does not. Looking at the HP website it seems that the Windows 10 drivers for this printer are not yet available. Is there any way I can use the printer without the dedicated drivers? I have been told I should try to roll back but the printer is not recognised in device manager. Please help!

  • USB Ultranav keyboard does not work with Windows 7

    Hi, I recently installed Windows 7 to my Dell Latitude XT tablet and was disappointed to learn that my USB Ultranav Keyboard only works as a keyboard and not a 'mouse'; that is, the ultranav devices (touchpad, buttons, and trackpoint) do not work.  I have not had problems with the keyboard functioning in XP or Vista, so it was surprising to find that it will not work with W7.
    I thought all was going well when W7 recognized the Ultranav keyboard when I plugged-in the device, but all did not go as planned.  I let W7 find the drivers through Windows update, but then once they didn't prove to work, I followed W7's directions of reinstalling the drivers in its version of 'Compatability Mode', but that still didn't prove to work.  I would really appreciate any insights into this problem as it is one of my only (current) hesitancies about using W7.
    Thank you for your time and attention to my inquiry.
    Cheers,
    Tsugazi

    Hi, strangely enough, I got it to work.  Here's the what I did differently (for those with a similar problem):
    After installing W7, I plugged in my keyboard and let Windows find the drivers.  When this didn't provide functionality of the ultranav devices, I tried installing the Ultranav drivers, and when Windows said there was a compatability problem, I then opted to let Windows re-install the Ultranav driver.  Unfortunately, this didn't provide functionality either.
    Jump ahead 12 hrs and re-install of W7 (for other reasons).  This time out, I installed the Ultranav driver, THEN plugged in my keyboard.  Everything works now!  I don't know that this sequence will work for everyone, but it did for me.
    Thanks for your comments.
    Cheers,

  • Secondary display does not work with Windows...

    Ive been using a samsung syncmaster 920nw as my secondary display for the past few months. It works fine while running OS but when I switch over to Windows XP the display goes blank after startup. I have installed the proper drive and updated it whenever possible, but with no effect. I have tried to follow the troubleshooting prompts and pretty much everything else I could think of. Im out of ideas. I didnt buy the monitor to sit on my desk and take up space... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Still no luck... Has anyone else experienced this problem while running Windows through bootcamp? Is it possible there's a compatibility issue with XP vs. Vista? The display is new and bears the mark "Works with Windows Vista". Could that mean it wont work with XP? I obviously don't use Windows that often, but seeing as I purchased the monitor as a secondary display, it would be nice to be able to put it to use in Windows too. Thanks anybody...

  • 32-bit Oracle ODBC Driver does not work under Windows 64-bit

    We have both Oracle Server 64-bit (10.2.0.3) and Oracle Client 32-bit (10.2.0.1) installed on the same Windows 2003 64-bit server.
    We can create and test 64-bit Oracle ODBC System DSN using 64-bit ODBC Administrator.
    We can also create a 32-bit Oracle ODBC System DSN using 32-bit ODBC Administrator.
    However, the "test connection" does not work:
    Unable to connect
    SQLState=IM003
    Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 998 (Oracle in OraClient10g_home32)
    We need the 32-bit driver due to 32-bit applications acessing the local 64-bit Oracle server.
    How should we accomplish this?
    Thanks.

    I applied 10.2.0.3 path to Oracle Client 32-bit and now the error is different.
    This error message appears 3 times before configuring, creating or testing a System DNS:
    "An unsupported operation was attempted."
    I just click OK 3 times and then can configure, create or test the DSN.
    However the 32-bit application still cannot access Oracle...

  • HP bt500 Adapter does not work with Windows 10?

    My HP Officejet H470wbt printer will not print wirelessly since I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.  I installed it via HP Support and received a wireless adapter error during installation.   The printer does work with a USB cable.  Is there another adapter that can be used or will there be a software upgrade to correct this issue?

    I did a work around (some what).  You have to remove the G4050 completly from your computer.  Reboot.  Go to the HP site and download "setup_full_G4050_14-5", save it then install it.  Reboot.  This MAY get the scanner to work.  It took me three or four times to get my scanner to scan.  The next problem was, it would scan but it would not save the file.  For photos I use "Corel Paint Shop Pro X" (import, Twain Aquire) it will turn on the scanner and import the picture.  Then you can save it.  I haven't found a solution to scan and save documents yet.  But I found out it will send them to the printer.

  • Where are LETOOLS for USB? The "ADB" Driver does not work with Windows XP

    I just give up with Lenovo's arcane maze of endlessly-looping driver searches.  I managed somehow to get something called an "ADB Driver" which was supposed to allow Windows XP to recognize my tablet as a K1 Ideapad.  I downloaded the 8+mb file which installed fk knows where and plugged in my K1 tablet.  Windows recognized that it had a USB device, and when prompted to hunt for the driver (which of course I couldn't find, since Lenovo sent it into the ether) I had to back out and then hunt through my entire Windows directory for an inf file containing the word "Android". 
    For the unsuspecting, it hides in something called -- get ready for it -- OEM16. 
    I guess the L, N and V keys were missing on the keyboard of the moron who labeled this pos driver.  Oh good programming Lenovo NOT but since a chimpanzee programmed Lenovo's driver site I suppose it's of a piece that a baboon packaged this worthless driver.  This isn't an eCommerce site it's a zoo.
    I guess it was too difficult for Lenovo to include a CD with their Windows USB driver family on it.  I mean . . . that would have cost them $.0000002.  Jesus wept.
    All I want to do is have XP know that the "USB Human Interaction" device I have plugged in is my K1 Lenovo tablet.  Don't send me to Google for a USB/Windows Android driver, they direct everyone to the site of the manufacturer of the tablet.  And don't insult my intelligence by even countenancing the possibility that Google's arch rival would stoop to offer any means for their OS to talk to (cough hack) Android.
    I get that it has to be a Lenovo driver and/or program.  So where the f is it? because this is massively pissing me off.  And one other thing:  No link to Lenovo.  I don't appreciate being manipulated by Lenovo's flash crap only to land on a driver download site that says "We can't find it."
    No.  Direct me please to any non-lenovo download portal that has the most recent version of LETOOLS and hope I don't have to come back here with yet more frustration.  This is the most needlessly idiotic driver service I have ever had the misfortune of being tethered to and I hope never to have to engage with it ever again.  May I please know where LETOOLS can be downloaded?  Thank you.

    Hi know-vo,
    I'm sorry that you couldn't find LETools. I've cheked with internal team and was told that actually we do have the software, but it's called "Synchronization Software". Did you try that?
    If you browse to ADB Driver page by clicking "Learn More" in support site, there is a note indicating that this ADB driver works with Synchronization Software.
    Sorry for all the inconvenience caused and. I hope this info above helps.

    This may solve your problem - It solved mine. 
    In the latest update for iTunes and QuickTime Player,  For some reason the QuickTime update isn't completing and there's no error message warning that it's not initialized.  The solution:
    1) Reboot your PC.
    2) Launch QuickTime (If windows says that it is configuring QuickTime then this is most likely the culprit).
    3) When QuickTime opens successfully , then launch iTunes and it should launch successfully this time.
    The other thing I did was to rename my iTunes library before step 3 and let iTunes create a new library.  Then, when iTunes launched successfully, I shut it down - renamed the new library iTunesNew and renamed the original library iTunes. (I'm not sure this step is necessary since the root problem was the incomplete installation of QuickTime during the program update.)
