HP PhotoSmart C4599 problems with Wireless on Windows 7 x64

Hello, I have a printer HP PhotoSmart C4599 running great on my Windows 7, but the problem is the Wireless of the printer. I've got a laptop (running on Windows Vista x86) that I use to print documents via Wireless and when i try to add the printer by wireless on the laptop it says the main computer (the one that is running Windows 7 x64) does not have the OEM proper driver installed, and it has...
Anyone has a solution to make the wireless of the HP PhotoSmart C4599 to work on Windows 7? I really appreciated.
Hope to hear some quick responses.
Thank you.

Verify that power outlet is working with a lamp or other appliance.
Verify power cord and power module are correct parts for that specific printer. Compare the Output voltage on the power module (the black box) with the listed voltage on the printer where the power cord plugs in. These must be the same
Remove power cord and power module from printer and power outlet. Separate power cord and module (let stand for 15 seconds)
Plug Power Cord into Power Module (plug firmly together)
Plug Power Cord with module directly into WALL outlet (Remove any surge protector or extension cords and plug printer cord directly into wall socket)
Check to see if power cord or module has LED light.
If has LED make sure it is glowing (if not glowing then replace power cord and module)
If no LED Plug cord into printer - make sure it is plugged in properly and firmly.
Press power button on printer to power up. If does not power up first time hit power button a few times to see if it works.
if you happen to have another printer with same power cord configuration (fits specs) try these steps again
If printer will not become responsive at this point, then you'll need to replace the printer.
if it is a hardware issue, contact HP support at 1-800-474-6836. Often there are special offers on replacements available to returning customers who are having hardware issues.

HP Photosmart C4780 problem with wireless connection & firewall

Hi
I am trying to connect my HP Photosmart C4780 to my wireless network at home.
Each time I try to configure my printer to my wireless network I keep getting the following HP Network Diagnostics Error Message:
Problems may exist with network functions of the printer. Please try to fix the issue then click Retry or click Next to continue. See details below.
Your printer is unable to communicate with your printer at 192.168.1.69. This may be caused by firewall software. If you are using firewall software verify that UDP port 427 is unblocked for both inbound and outbound traffic.
Your PC cannot communicate with your printer at address 192.168.1.69. Check all cable connections. Check that the printer, PC and router are powered and connected to the network.
MY QUERY - I have AVG 2011 security software installed on my laptop which I presume contains firewalls. But I do not know how to "verify that UDP port 427 is unblocked for both inbound and outbound traffic". How do I do this?
i am not a tech expert so would appreciate as much help as possile with this as right now I cannot use my printer as it keps showing as Offline.
Many thanks
This question was solved.

Go into the AVG menu and simply disable the firewall and retest.

Huge problems with wireless, would need some help

Sorry for the bad topic, and sorry for my english.
And now the problem.
I have just bought my first laptop, and got almost everything to play nice in arch, except the wireless.
My card is a Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (iwl3945), and i have a Dlink 524 router (abg).
Using WAP, but can change this if its help.
Right now I'am using NetworkManager (0.6.5-3 from rep) and KNetworkManager (from AUR), and it works very very bad.
It can't connect at startup (or atleast it doesn't...), it takes several attempts to get a connection, it drops the connection and dont reconnect when it does, and so on. Its almost unusable and force me to use wired a connection just to be sure to be able to write this.
After what i read in different forums and mailinglists, there seems to be a lot of problems with wireless at the moment?
Anyone got this combination to work fine? Or are there any other way of configuration i should try? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

I've had a lot of problems with wireless networking for several weeks recently, ever since I upgraded vanilla kernel26 from v.2.6.22 to v.2.6.23 (see http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=40145). I'm using the Windows driver bcmwl5 for the Broadcom 4311 chipset via Ndiswrapper, and I'm using WPA-PSK (TKIP) encryption. I also use a D-Link DI-524 router. What finally cured the problem was to install the new wicd (v.1.3.1) network manager which is now in extra and to set up all networking interfaces in that GUI, abandoning using Arch network profiles and all the detailed setup in /etc/rc.conf.
My /etc/rc.conf now only contains (I'm only showing entries pertinent to networking)
MODULES=(ndiswrapper capability sg acpi-cpufreq cpufreq_ondemand cpufreq_performance cpufreq_powersave)
HOSTNAME="RFDellLT"
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng @nfslock @nfsd @netfs @crond !network hal cpufreq portmap wicd sshd cups alsa @openntpd privoxy)
i.e. no more INTERFACES, not even "lo", gateway, ROUTES, NET_Profiles. Everything is set up through wicd. You only need to put the wicd daemon in the DAEMONS array (after hal which also loads dbus), and the network daemon isn't needed anymore. Also you should uninstall any other networkmanager.
To put the wicd icon in the system tray, create a shell script (give it any name) in the .kde/Autostart/ directory in your home directory (if you use KDE, otherwise do the equivalent thing for any other DE/WM) that contains the command /usr/lib/wicd/tray.py.
You may want to try wicd, perhaps it'll fix your problem. It certainly has gotten good press in this forum.

Is there a problem with JFrame and window listeners?

}anyone know whats wrong?

It turned out that my ide was running the old jar and not updating it, so no matter what code i added, it wasn't being seen. Everything should be fine now.

Problem with shares on Windows 2003R2 server from a Windows 8.1 PC

I'm having problem with shares on Windows 2003R2 server from a Windows 8.1 PC. It times out when I try to copy a file from my PC to the server and I get an error message saying "There is a problem accessing network drive W:\. Make sure you are
connected to the network and try again."
I have no problem copying files from the server to the PC.
Any ideas?

Hi,
How about your problem now? Have you test other machine also installed Windows 8.1? Did they have this problem?
To diagnose this problem, firstly, please check Windows 2003R2 firewall settings, also can disable firewall temporarilly for test.
Secondly, try to use Network Monitor to capture network communication package for test.

Problem with touchpad and Windows 8.1. Acer Aspire E5-511

I bought an Acer Aspire E5-511, but I have problem with touchpad and Windows 8.1.The touchpad (Synaptics) is not working with Windows 8.1 x64, but it works fine with Windows 7 x64 and Windows 8 x64.When I install Windows 8.1 and have to choose” language to install” I can’t choose anything with the touchpad. I should plug in my mouse to continue. I doesn’t work even when it’s fully installed and with latest driver (available only for win 8.1 x64) from Acer’s website. I tried with an older driver, but had no success. I updated BIOS, but it doesn’t work again. In hardware IDS in device manager it shows HID\… not ACPI\… (like win 7/8). Fn+F7 doesn’t help.When I try to install Windows7/8 the touchpad is working properly at the beginning (I can choose ”language to install”, “Time and currency format”… and the touchpad works after install even without driver).

SOLUTION So guys after deep research and troubleshooting I found that you need to keep notice of a few things at time of installation: Installation Mode: UEFI (only)- LEGACY would create touchpad issues. after installation of windows just follow the driver installation hierarchy 1.Intel NB_Chipset_M Baytrail-M 2.Intel I/O Driver then rest of the crap. Note:After doing all this make sure your touchpad is active >> Fn+F7 Just wished if this solution came from an acer executive , the world would have been a better place , but anyways this is what community is for. Enjoy everyone

Windows 8.1 Problem with games from windows store.

I've got a problem with games from windows store. The installation is going well without any problems, however when I try to open it it's loading and then it turns off. The same problem happens when I try to use Games for Windows. I've use a sfc scan and
it shows some errors but unfortunately it cannot fix them. Should I share the CBS log or find the solution somewhere else? I hope you help, best regards.

Hi,
According to my experience, the problem like store game app open failed probably caused by hardware driver. such as Audio and Graphic driver. So, first of all, please try to reinstall these two driver to fix this problem for test.
In addition, for SFC scan failed problem, it can be caused by many reasons, I would suggest you use another command to fix your system for test.
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
Also you can test SFC command in Windows 8.1 safe mode.
Thirdly, if problem persists, please check Event Viewer, generally speaking, it would record the app open failed events.

Problem with the Finder window in Chrome

Hello,
I have a problem with my finder window in Chrome.
Since the window isn't a separate window anymore, but stuck to the top of the webpage, my finder window is too big. I can't read the "Cancel" or "Send" (I have no idea what's supposed to be there in English but I assume it's something like "send" and "cancel") buttons. I have provided some images of the problem, even if I make the Chrome window as small as possible, the finder window still is too big for my screen. I can resize the finder window from lest to right, but not up or down, which is extremely irritating for me.
If anyone can help me how I can solve this problem.
Thanks!

I found the solution on another thread...Here it is.
"I was having the same problem. I found a way to make it smaller. First, I opened chrome and clicked the green button on the window to make chrome go into full screen. Then I tried to save a file to make the finder window open in chrome. When it opened in full screen I could see the bottom of the window so I resized it to make it a little smaller. Once I did this it remembered the size so now I can access the bottom buttons when I take it out of full screen mode. Hope this helps."
Worked like a charm!

Problems with wireless internet on Imac

I have an IMAC since just over a year (MAC OS X vs. 10.6.6), and I have had over the last couple of months lots of problems with wireless connection.
Sometimes it connects without problem, but mostly I have to follow a 'Diagnostic Info' process: I select Airport, then select the wireless network, then have to restart, and then all lights turn green. I can connect then and only after a minute the pages do not load anymore.
Can anyone give me some troubleshooting tips ?

You could also have look at this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2790214&tstart=0
which has a couple of links I posted that may help troubleshoot your problem.
Rick's suggestion at looking at changing channels seems to be a good starting point.

When I updated to 10.4.10, had problems with wireless. Able to fix problem

I have a mac mini G4 since Sep 06. I had no problems with wireless until I updated to 10.4.10. My problem was I could only connect to the internet for about 10 minutes then it would not respond. I had to turn off airport then turn it back on then it would work for about 10 more minutes. I have AT&T DSL, speed stream 4100 modem, and D Link 524 router. I went to D Link web site and found out when I use encryption WEP,WPA,ETC. it has to be hexadecimal key with dollar sign ($) before the hex key (Apple computers only). Before the update, I only used password with no problems for about 9 months. Instead of using a password use 64 bit encryption its 10 hexadecimal key or 128 bit encryption its 26 hexadecimal key. Valid hexadecimal characters are 0-9 and A-F. Example of 64 bit key is $0123456789 instead of password. After I did this, I been on the internet for hours with no problems. I hope this info can help out.

Take a look through some of the other threads in this forum. Almost 100% of Safari 3 trouble after the OS X 10.4.11 update is caused by third party plugins, extensions, and input managers. Check in these folders and report back what you have in them.
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins (this is the Library folder in the top level of your hard drive)
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins (this is the Library folder located in your Home (username) folder)
/Library/Input Managers
~/Library/Input Managers
Or if you know that you have installed some third party stuff along the way try un-installing them. Again, read some of the other threads here to see who the main suspects are. Once you know what is causing your trouble then, if you still want to use the third party plug-in, go to a site like [Version Tracker|www.versiontracker.com] and look for updated versions that work with Safari 3.

Problem with wireless printer HP photosmart by using iPad

How can I use my wireless printer HP photosmart D 7460 with my iPad?
jacques

I don't see your printer on the list of AirPrint capable printers: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356. If it isn't AirPrint capapble, the options are as follows:
HP may have an app in the App store that will allow your printer to have limited capabilities (not AirPrint).
One or more of the 3rd party printer apps in the Apps Store may work with your printer (again not AirPrint).
Download a 3rd party program to your PC/MAC that will allow you to use shared printers as if they were AirPrint capable. Your iPad will see the printer as an AirPrint cabable printer, but the PC/MAC the software is installed on must be up and running. A few such programs are Printopia, AirPrint Activator, FingerPrint by Collobos.

Is Verizon going to acknowlege the problems with FIOS and Windows Vista

For months now, I have been reading the numerous problems Fios internet customers are having with Fios internet/Actiontech Router and Windows Vista and there has been no acknowledgement by Verizon of this current major issue.
I have also experienced the exact same issue for months now since I switched to Verizon FIOS internet. Previously I had Comcast HSI using my Windows Vista laptop. I had their service for over a year and I NEVER has a problem with the Windows Vista globe icon disappearing and loosing internet connection. The Globe always stayed on and never went away and I never lost connection when I had Comcast
I had Verizon FIOS installed last September with my Windows Vista computer and my wireless internet connection started to drop from day 1 and it has been a daily occurrence for over 5 months now. It has gotten so bad, I have had to hardwire my laptop to to be able to use the internet uninterrupted.
This is what daily scenario is:
When I turn on my laptop(with Windows Vista, I can initially get full internet access(with the globe on and it says "Local and internet). After about 10 minutes or less, the globe switches to "local only" and I can still get internet access. After another 5 or so minutes, a large X covers the globe and I lose internet connection entirely. The actiontech router wireless signal is no longer listed as one of the wireless networks. The only way for me to regain internet access is either to restart my laptop or reboot the actiontech router.
Numeorus posts here, over by DSL forums(Broadband Reports),Microsoft's website and a few othere websites detail this issue.
I am extremely shocked and surprised that Verizon has not tried to fix this issue by working with both the makers of the Actiontech Router as well as Microsoft to find out what the problem is and how to fix it.
I would just like to reiterate I strongly believe this is primarily a FIOS internet issue since I previously had Comcast HSI for over a year with the same Windows Vista laptop and I NEVER had that problem. Also, I can connect to my neighbors wireless connection(she uses Comcast HSI) and when I do, the globe stay on all the time on my computer and the internet does not lose connection.
I know that there are a couple of Verizon employees here. Please tell the higher ups who handle FIOS internet that this is a major issue that needs to be resolved as soon as possible.
P.S: Please don't tell me to go by my own router because then, I will have to deal with the issues of setting it up to work with Fios TV and the related VOD, widgets, remote DVR compatability issues to deal with. I don't think I can deal with the additional headaches.

FIOS is short for fiber optics. fiber optics is different technology than DSL.
With that said, if you search the Microsoft databases for vista issues with fiber optics, (CURRENTLY THERE IS ONLY ONE PROVIDER OF FIBER TO THE HOUSE, that being Verizon, so yes you can also search Vista issues with verizon and\or fios) and you will find that Microsoft already acknowledges this issue with their software. AND they offer you a fix.

Problems with wireless mouse/keyboard after upgrade to snow leopard

Hi!
I am wondering if someone has some insight for me. I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard from Tiger. I have been using a Logitech S 530 wireless keyboard/mouse combo for a few years. I am now having problems with them irratically.
1. When on line and the page is large, I often cannot move the blue bar at the bottom of the screen to scroll to the right. What happens is like a stutter; as I am dragging the bar, it and the page shake rapidly side-to-side. Sometimes, I can drag it to the right, but as soon as I let go, it snaps back to the left. This does not happen in Word.
2. When in boxes with dropdown options, only occasionally does that happen. The dropdown either doesn't show, or it flashes quickly. Sometimes it will work after clicking many times. This happens with dropdown menus as well as search boxes that have dropdown choices for previous searches or suggested searches a la Google.
3. When I use my function key or mouse to display all windows, I can't choose the one I want. Regardless of which one I put my cursor over, only the left-most one is highlighted and comes to the front when I click.
4. There is a varying lag. Sometimes the system is responsive, and other times there is a lag of varying lengths before the system responds to the mouse action (click, drag, zoom, etc.)
5. For a while, my left mouse button wouldn't work. I reconfigured it, that seems to have done the trick.
6. Today, I can't open any of the menu items on Firefox. I can move the cursor there, but when I click on any of them, nothing happens. This is okay in Safari.
I have disconnected and reconnected the usb, restarted the computer, and tried to reinstall the software for the mouse and keybord. When I did that, I got a message saying it couldn't install on the current OS, so I went to Logitech and dowloaded and installed the latest version (which indicated it is for OS X 10.6.8.)
I don't know if this is a Snow Leopard problem, but it started sometime after I upgraded. Thanks in advance for any help!

Update all your third party software or uninstall and reinstall 10.6 versions.
If your going to 10.7, be warned a lot of software will not work at all and your 10.5 era machine will be slow, perhaps even have problems as 10.7 is problematic on older hardware.

IMO save for a new 10.8 machine after this summer.
See #1-15 here, tune yourself up good.

C6150 Photosmart Print problem with photo files only

Operating system : Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate 32
Connected to your PC : Wireless Network
Problem description : Attempting to print photos with Adobe Photoshop or MS Office Picture Manager fails. The job appears in the print queue, the size gets to 48 bytes but no further. Attempting to delete the job from the print queue also fails. The Status changes from Printing to Deleting but it fails to delete until the PC is restarted.
I have experienced this problem occasionally over the past several months but lately it appears to be permanent. I believe the problem is with the Windows Vista software because all other files (e.g. MS Word, Adobe PDF, MS IE, emails, etc.) all print normally without any problem. Also, the fact that the job in the print queue acknowledges the Delete command but fails to execute it arouses suspicion.
So, although this is probably not an HP problem, maybe someone reading this might have some knowledge of how I can resolve it and be able to print my photos once more. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
I would describe my skill level as Intermediate

Dear 8lives
Thank you for your suggestions. I ran the "sfc/scannow" ploy. When it finished it said the Windows resource protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. Details are included in the CBS Log. It gave a path to the CBS log, but when I tried to follow it it came back "Access is denied". Ain't Window wonderful! It has been around all these years, made all that money, but still becomes corrupt no matter how much you spend on anti-virus software and maintenance routines, and then it denies access to what is corrupted, and cannot be uncorrupted without spending money to get the problem fixed. If computers were not so darned essential I wouldn't have one. Next one won't be a Windows PC!
No, I haven't tried re-installing anything because I believe the only thing that might solve my problem is to reinstall Windows. As an Intermediate, that is too scary. I will carry on as best I can, finding fewer and fewer of the resources I paid for usable, until I give up and bite the bullet and see if life is any better if I purchase an iMac. Fingers crossed!
