HP Photosmart 7520 not connected to computer when trying to scan

Hi!!
I have an IMac. I can print from my computer, and my computer recognizes my printer (HP Photosmart 7520), however, my printer will not connect to my iMac...Help! ;-)
When I am trying to scan, the exact warning is: "No Connection: No computer is connected. See printer Help and documentation to troubleshoot the connection."
When I go to printer Help and doc, it says to install the HP software on my computer.
I already went through most of the troubleshooting steps I could find (on my computer and online) - they only dealt with my computer not recognizing my printer...not vice versa...
The little bluetooth light is lit and going strong...
Thanks in advance!!!
Katie

Hi @ktsue,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that you cannot scan with your HP Photosmart 7520 on your Mac. I am happy to help you with this scanning issue!
For further assistance, I will need some additional information:
The version of Mac Operating System that you are using. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
If the printer is connected, Wireless, or USB.
If the printer is able to make copies. Copy Text or Mixed Documents.
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.
In the meantime, please see this scanning guide, A 'No Computer Detected' or 'Connection Error' Message Displays for HP Photosmart 7520 e-All-in-One .... (Even though the guide title may not match your issue, I believe the solutions will help).

I keep getting message that not connected to Internet when trying to access an so site such as amazon, when I can still access other areas of Internet such as banking

Why do I keep getting message that not connected to Internet when trying to access amazon yet am very obviously am still connected as can access the apple site or banking sites. Have tried resetting.

I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

My computer said it was not connected to internet when trying to restore Ipad

my Ipad is not working so I was trying to restore it but my computer says it is not connected to the internet when clearly it is.
How can I fix this problem

Quit iTunes, restart your computer and then try again.
If your iPad is not working - did you try rebooting it? Or define what "is not working". It will not turn on at all? Did iTunes see your iPad when you connected to your computer?
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Error message "not connected to internet" when trying to sign in to BB id with Mac laptop

I have a Mac laptop and was forced to remove the original BB Link OS when the Z10 launched. I replaced the OS with the current one but now it doesn't allow me to use my Mac's computer name eg. John Smith's Mac book. I can only use a single name. I suspect that is why I'm not getting the itune's library to load. Also, I can't sign into my BB id, I get a message that says I'm not connected to the internet. I've taken the firewall off as I heard that was a solution with Windows but it didn't work. Any ideas?

i have the same problem. I have window 7 pc. I had to use internet to download link so i don't understand why it is not allowing me to use link or do set up. I uninstalled my previous bb desktop driver in hopes that would help. It didn't. I appreciate any help on this forum

Fix for "Not Connected" Error Messages When Trying to Access Web Services

If you run across an error message on your printer stating that it is "Not Connected" when trying to access ePrint or your Apps, but you know it is connected to the internet, it probably just means that the printer is not connecting to the server properly.
Here is the first set of steps I would try, since they seem to resolve this issue half of the time.
The first thing I would try in this situation is a network reboot.
First, disconnect the power cord from the back of your router.
Next disconnect the power cord from either the back of the printer or the wall, without powering it off first.
Wait about 30 seconds and reconnect the power cord to your router.
Wait about another 30 seconds and plug the printer back in. It should boot back up automatically, but if it doesn't go ahead and press the power button.
Once everything is back up and running, try to access ePrint or your Apps.
If those steps don't work for you, the next thing would be setting a Static IP & DNS for the printer. Before doing this, you want to print off a network configuration page. It varies from model to model, but it is usually found under the Wireless Settings or under Reports in the Setup menu. After you have that page, follow these steps.
Before we start, we need a network configuration page with your current connection settings. To get this, press the wireless button on the front of your printer and then press "Print Info" or "Print Report". This will print off a network configuration page, which has information on it that we need to complete the next few steps.
After you have that, we will need to access the printers Embedded Web Server (EWS). You can do so by entering the printers IP address (from the network configuration page) into your browsers address bar and pressing enter.
Once there, press the "Network" tab at the top of the page. From there you will want to click the "IPv4" button, located on the lef-hand side of the page. It will be there for WIreless and Wired, so make sure to click the one for you however you are connected. If you do not see "IPv4", you should see "Networking", press that and then press "Network Address(IP)".
Next, you will want to click the small round button next to "Manual IP Address" and then fill in the boxes for IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway, using the information found on the network configuration page.
For the Primary or Preffered DNS Server, you will want to enter 8.8.8.8.
For the Secondary or Alternate DNS Server, you will want to enter 8.8.4.4.
Click apply and when the message pops up saying that the changes have been applied, press "OK".
Press the power button on your printer, wait for it to fully power off and then press it again to power it back on.
After doing this, go ahead and try to enable ePrint again.

This question was solved.
View Solution.

The reason we recommend using 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for the DNS server is because they work when ISP assigned DNS servers do not. The DNS server assigned to you by your ISP is not able to resolve the domain for web services, therefore not allowing the printer to connect.
I assure you that it is with your ISP's DNS server and not the printer. If you were to take the printer back to the store and get a replacement, you would have the same issue, unless you changed the DNS. Same goes for any of our web service enabled printers.

My ipad is not connecting the computer when i plug in, USB device not recognized pops up. I uninstalled and reinstalled itunes without any improvement.

I cannot get my ipad to sync with the computer, the message USB device not recognized keeps popping up. I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes without an improvement.

Do you have firewall or anti-virus software running? If you do, it helps to turn it off. Otherwise, click on this link and see if it helps: http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/

Messages beta, does not connect to Internet when trying to use uninstall, but I clearly am on the internet, any ideas?

I downloaded messages beta, and after trying video chat with my wife who was using iChat, I decided to uninstall, and every time I try to uninstall, I get a network problem saying that the messages beta uninstalled can't be downloaded as my computer isn't connected to the Internet, and I clearly am connected thru my wifi, any ideas how to get around this?

Hi,
Any version of iChat or the Message beta will have issues if you have two connections to the internet.
In fact iChat 4 in Leopard has the worst issues particularly if the computer you are on is Sharing the Internet with other devices (See System Preferences > Sharing > Internet Sharing)
iChat can just about manage in Text Chats to connect with other people.
In Video Chats and Audio Only chats and Screen Sharing ichat needs to be in "One Place"
With two IPs issued from a router for Wifi and Ethernet (See the differences in System Preferences > Network for Ethernet and Advanced Button > TCP tab for Wifi) means that iChat looks like it is in two places.
It is worse if you share the Wifi of a neighbour and use Ethernet yourself.
Using Ethernet may get your computer to access the DNS servers from your router more consistently so that Messages can find the place to download iChat 6 (There is evidence that both downloading Messages Beta and registering the Apple ID needs the correct or adequate DNS server info to work properly)
This address for the Message Beta download seems to hard to find for some DNS servers
http://swdlp.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/SoftwareDownloadApp.woa/wo/XeLd6tIQQ2O yGCki8irQgw/2.5
(This is the accompanying "Thank you for Downloading" page)
The point you make though, that a Ethernet connection may work better, is valid.

Thank you

Make sure the iTunes app is closed (Double-tap the home button and then swipe up on the app preview window above the icon) and then go Settings >iTunes & App Store and then press on your Apple ID...logout.
Reset your device by holding down the home button and lock button (top of phone) for 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
Once the phone comes back on, go back to the same location and log back in to the iTunes store. Now, try the app again.

Hi, Bob. Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Which exact iBook model is it? ("iBook" covers a lot of different Mac models, each with different capabilities.)
You can choose from this list:
