HP Photosmart 7960 driver (.inf) file name

What is the Windows XP HP Photosmart 7960 driver (.inf) file name?

I have tried every solution I can find to my problem - I cannot install a Photosmart 7960 printer on my HP Pavilion XP desktop. The installation wizard won't work. It ends in an error message and then undoes what it has accomplished up to that point. I think the wizard extracts the driver(s) from the downloaded file hp_53_enu.exe and puts it in the right place before the error, then it undoes that progress, making it impossible to find the driver or even identify the file name. I want to try some manual installation ideas, but I need to find the actual driver, not the zip file or the wizard. Can someone tell me the driver filename(s)? I can find the file on a second, identical computer if you can give me the file name.
Thanks

Installed mac installer.dmg Seagate GoFlex and drive and file names now in Chinese characters

I just installed the mac installer.dmg from Seagate on a second Mac so that I could use Seagate GoFlex drive with the computer, but now the drive shows up with its name and the file names in Chinese characters! Connecting the drive to the original mac has the drive show up named properly but a few of the files show up in Chinese characters. What gives?

I should add that these are the instructions I received from Seagate in answer to the same inquiry. I have not yet gone to work to give them a try.
Thank you for contacting Seagate.
I am sorry you are having problems with your Seagate drive. Let me help you resolved this language issue. I understand your drive verbiage is in Chinese. I would try reinstalling software, and then following the installation process in this link below in order to correct this issue.

Need driver (*.inf) files for HP OfficeJet 5610 All-in-one

I am setting up a print server and it needs *.inf driver files for my HP OfficeJet 5610 All-in-one printer. Where can i find them? I've installed the drivers on my PC, but they come as *.exe files that will not extract to give the *.inf files. Can anyone help?

Hello, First I would like to say that I dont like what HP does, I dont want all your software cloging up my computer. What I want if for the hardware I have purchased from you to work the way I want to. Nothing more nothing less. Please give your customers the chance to pick the software they want and not fill up the pc with trash.
PlanoStar You will find the x86 inf file in the Windows XP Package, it about an 68mb download, just extract EP-CDB-enu_NB.exe using Winrar.
And ofcourse after the hours spent, with HP trolling you, you would think you are done. Think again. Microsoft will pick up the tradition with some Install x86 Medea ntprint.inf BS. to solve this problem download the files needed from here.
It will save you hours instead of mounting AIO images and whatever.
Ps. I have just registered with HP with the sole reason of making this post, and I would just like to say that hp support is rubbish.

Using only Compatible IDs in a driver INF file

Hi,
I am looking at using only a Compatible ID, and no Hardware ID, in our USB driver's INF file. This appears to work fine on Windows 8.1, at least, though Inf2Cat throws a warning about the missing Hardware ID.
The MSDN online documentation does not mention anything about the invalid use of Compatible IDs, but through some further googling I have found some sources that suggest vendors should not use Compatible IDs, but there is no explanation as to why this is
the case.
Is anyone able to provide an explanation as to why INF files must contain a Hardware ID and cannot contain only Compatible IDs? I am unclear whether this is due to a technical reason, or a design / WHQL certification reason.
For further info as to why I am trying to only use compatible IDs, here is a simplified view. We have two installation packages. The Primary package comes with a lot of baggage. The Secondary package is lighter. Both packages contain different tools and
the user has the choice to install either one, or both at the same time based on how they wish to use the device. Since the secondary package does not support all the functionality of the primary package, the secondary package installs a limited driver, compared
to the Primary package's driver. If both packages are installed, we need the Primary driver to take precedence. It seems to me that using Compatible IDs was a more logical way to go rather than using FeatureScore to prioritise the drivers.
Regards,
Emil

Thanks for the replies.
So compatible IDs in an INF file are really only meant for class drivers, and virtual print drivers?
It's a shame since it seemed to fit our situation quite well. Our secondary driver is used by several of our USB devices and is only used to provide firmware updates, otherwise the device in question is normally controlled via ethernet. If the primary driver
is installed (optional for the user) it also allows firmware updating, but has further functionality beyond what is capable over ethernet. This is why I thought that compatible IDs in the secondary driver would be more appropriate because it is used by multiple
devices but has very limited functionality.

Where (drive, folder, file name) are the database files that store catalog information such as tags and changed dates in Elements 13?

I want to backup just the datebae file that holds catalog data. I can't find it in Elements 13 but could in Elements 10. Is it hidden in a secret file with a secret name? Why?

The catalog is a folder containing the main database (catalog.pse13db), the thumbnails cache (thumb.5.cache) and other files and subfolders. To save a catalog, you save the whole catalog with its subfolders. Note that if you don't save the thumbnail cache (which is the biggest item in the catalog), it will be rebuilt automatically.
In all versions of Elements, Win or Mac, you find its location from the menu: Help/System information.
By default it's in a hidden folder in Windows.
Why? I don't know, but you can tell the Windows Explorer to show hidden files. That's up to you; I always do that.
Should the catalog always be in the default location? Not at all. You can move it elsewhere. For instance you can hold your image library and your catalog to an external drive. Then, the catalog manager shows it as beeing in 'custom location'.
The following is not in your question, but I assume you are asking that for backup purposes. If you have an external backup system, you should include the catalog folder. That is not enough if you want to restore to another computer or drive because the original is dead. The catalog stores the picture files location with reference to the path, but also to the internal serial number of the drive. Changing drive means that all files will be shown 'missing' or 'disconnected', and you'll have to run a 'reconnect' procedure. You don't need the reconnection if you use the internal backup/restore process in the Organizer.
Use Backup, Restore to move catalog | Organizer | Elements 6 or later
If you are not in the situation of a crash, but you simply want to update (includinge updating PSE version), the integrated system is ideal.
Other backup systems have their advantages. I do use Windows SyncToy after each significant editing session, and the Organizer backup at regular intervals.

DATAEXPORT - set Dynamic File name in Calc Script

Hi,
I have a calc script which exports data from BSO cube to a flat file. Currently I have hard coded file name within the calc script which is
DATAEXPORT "File" "," "D:/in/CAPXPT_FERC_*FY12*.txt";
and, for example, I want use the substition varaible to dynamically assign the file name let' say
DATAEXPORT "File" "," "/u11/oracle/OHDDEVD/in/CAPXPT_FERC *" + &fYear + "*.txt";
Is there any way to set the export file name dynamically?
Thanks for your help
Regards,

A kind of intriguing thought would be to use the sub var as a way to drive the file name, then grab Robb Salzmann's CDF to dynamically set sub vars on the fly, and then use a RTP to grab that string. I have no idea if this would all tie together, but it would be interesting to try.
Here's Robb's post: http://codingwithhyperion.blogspot.com/2011/08/create-and-update-substitution.html This is my second in a row post that refers to his CDF -- it is almost like that's my pseudonym except of course I'm too thick to write a CDF.

File Names do not delete

On my external drive (and not on my internal drive) my file names do not delete after deleting the actual file but leave a ghost behind. I have thousands of these ghosts now on my external drive and I don't know how to delete them. When I try to delete
them it says that the file does not exist anymore. I've tried the recommended solutions to no avail. Maybe it makes a difference on an external drive?

Hi,
Firstly, please run chkdsk /f /r command to repair the disk error and then tried again:
Run Check Disk from the Command Line to Find and Fix Errors
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/dd637756.aspx
if it's not helpful, boot computer into
system recovery options menu and select Command Prompt, type the following commands:
Type in "cd [path]" into the command prompt, where [path] is the location the ghost file in. Hit enter.
Type "del [ghost file]", where [ghost file] is the name of the ghost file in question.
After that, reboot the computer.

Which win7 .inf file should be used for a photosmart 7760?

I have a Photosmart 7760 attached to a Win XP machine. I have a new 64-bit Win7 machine and I'm trying to set up printing from this machine. Windows keeps telling me that it can't find a driver for the printer. HP says I need to use a driver from Windows update. I've found several hp related .inf files on the win7 machine, but none mention the photosmart 7760. Which one, if any should I try to enable me to print to this printer?
BTW, Win7 machine dual boots with linux. There's no problem printing when booted in linux.

Problems copying iTunes folder to an external hard drive - "The operation can't be completed because the item FILE NAME is in use"

Hi,
I have been trying to back up my iTunes folder from my MacBook hard drive over to a new LaCie external hard drive. However, whenever I try to do it at some point during the copying I keep getting the warning "The operation can’t be completed because the item FILE NAME is in use". Each time I have tried it, it is always a different file name that comes up and at different points of the copying. Following the warning, the copying stops and cannot be restarted.
I tried copying the iTunes folder to another Lacie external hard drive that I have, and it worked fine so I am guessing that it maybe something wrong with the hard drive.
I've been trying various approaches all day and can't seem to get anywhere with it - all very frustrating, so any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks.

If you don't have other backup data on it, reformatting external drive could solve the problem.

I have an older version of itunes on my L drive. Everytime I try to download the newest version I get the error itunes.resources is not a valid short file name. Now I obtained an iphone and cannot sync the phone to my account because it wants me to upda

I have an older version of itunes on a separate drive. Everytime that there has been an update to itunes it will not let me update. Now I purchased an iphone and I hooked the phone up to the computer and it tells me I need to install the latest version of itunes. I downloaded to try it, but I keep getting an error message that says itunes.Resources is not a valid short file name. What can I do from here?

That is a new one on me.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

In iMovie when I try to share a project to a file on an external hard drive it will work the first time but subsequently it says it is sharing but gives no time and file name and in fact just sits there not sharing the file.

I have iMovie 10.0.4. I want to transfer some old DV tape videos to MPEG 4 files to be stored on a 4 TB external drive. I successfully imported the video to iMovie, created a project by moving all captured files into a project and the first time I shared the project to a file it worked as expected. Every subsequent try to transfer another video would fail to transfer. When I clicked save it gives the warning that it is too big for iCloud, iso I click create on this computer. The progress circle comes up with no indication of progress. The show activity drop down just says sharing to "file" no file name as in the first one and indicates no time remaining. In fact it just sits there apparently doing nothing. I'v tried it a half dozen times, deleted everything and started over. It transfers the first project to file and then nothing on additional tries. What do I have wrong, am I missing something?

In iTunes 11 uncheck the preferences setting in in the iTunes Preferences panel "Advanced > Copy Files to iTunes Media folder when adding to Library"

I can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name

can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name. My original external has an error and needs to be reformatted but I dont want to lose this informations its my entire Itunes library.

Sounds like the source drive is formatted as case sensitive and the destination drive is not. The preferred format for OS X is case insensitive unless there is a compelling reason to go case sensitive.
Why can't you change the filename? Is it because the source drive is having problems? If so is this happening with only one or two or a few files? If so the best thing would be to copy those over individually and then rename them on the destination drive.
If it is more then you can do manually and you can't change the name on the source you will have to reformat the destination as case sensitive.
Btw this group is for discussion of the Support Communities itself, you;d do better posting to Lion group. I'll see if a host will move it.

Which inf file to use for HP LaserJet Pro 200 color m251nw, when updating the driver?

My printer is LaserJet Pro 200 color Printer M251nw. I visited the support page and found there is a newer driver.
Driver (61.117.01.15301)
Currently my driver version is 61.117.1.11493. I want to upgrade the driver.
After downloading and unzipping the files into the folder, I found there are 3 inf files in the folder:
hpcm251u.inf
hpcm251c.inf
hpbuio70l.inf
So which one should I install? I am disappointed at the lack of information and inconvenience in upgrading the driver.
June

Hi CJKim,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are trying to update the driver and are not sure which .inf to choose.
I will be happy to help you.
Since it is running through the add printer wizard you can select any one of the .inf files you listed
to update the drivers.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
Have a great day.

Driver? Networking Photosmart 7960

Hi,
I have an HP Photosmart 7960 connected to a Netgear wireless print server. I am trying to set up the printer to work from my G4. I had no problems setting up my Laserjet on another port on this print server. But, when I try to find a compatible driver using the Mac printer setup tools, there are none listed for this printer. I tried to install the HP software, but the driver still does not appear in the list. I have searched the forum, and this issue seems to be common. However, I have not found a thread that contains a solution. BTW - the printer installs fine if I direct connect it the G4. Any help is much appreciated.

Hmm...
Network printing/Windows printing only works with a driver that was meant for network printing. To use the OS X built-in CUPS network choices, you need a CUPS driver. For postscript printers, it's not an issue, because postscript is the native output of OS X, and can easily be routed to the various choices in Printer Setup.
Non-postscript printers are Very Different. Except for Brother, no manufacturer has provided CUPS drivers. Instead, what you get is Carbonized, OS9 legacy drivers, that have the comm protocol written into the driver (mostly USB). You can only print via the comm type written into the driver.
**Exception - when printing via an Airport/Bonjour enabled print server, where the software does a port redirection, USB output from the Mac gets routed to the USB port on Airport Express/Extreme.
Get the hpijs and ESP ghostscript driver set:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/
(I'm pretty sure I said the same stuff in those links - I know this is hard to swallow, but you needn't listen to me only - further research about OS X and CUPS will help you understand this driver limitation)

How Do I Copy File Names & Folders From A Hard Drive To A Word Document?

Hi Gang:
This may sound silly but I am having a herd time with the following - seemingly simple task.
I have data DVD-Rs with audio files organized into folders. Each folder contains audio files related to the folder name.
I would like to copy the file names and folders from a DVD-R and paste them into a MS Word file. I am just looking to get a listing of files as they appear on the DVD-Rs in their folders.
The problem is that when I copy and paste, the order changes (seemingly randomly) and the file names are no longer under the folder names. In fact, the whole thing looks to be really random.
Anybody know how to copy file/folder names from a hard drive or DVD-R to a word document and retain the file/folder structure?
Thanks!
LAHD

There is an even easier method with no Terminal magic required. In the Finder, select all the files you want the names of, press Command-C, switch to Word and press Command-V. Poof, your done.
If you view the DVD in List VIew, you can expand the folders you want the files for, then select all the files (and their folders if you want them too) and then do the Copy/Paste thing.
