HP touchsmart tx2 software

 The Touchsmart PCs are supposed to come with a set of software applications like "canvas" and a music organizer and an image organizer all designed for touch screen usage correct? i dont think i have this... or perhaps i'm not seeing it? could someone help me find it or tell me where i could download it please and thankyou
~tunnelingcat
click me please!!!! ^_^

You can see the new software here; http://www.hp.com/united-states/campaigns/touchsma​rt/#/Whats-New
Canvas, Hulu, Twitter, Netfix, etc.
EXCEPT, you CANNOT get it if you purchased your touchsmart tx2 prior to the windows 7 release. I purchased one month before, and thought they would be on the HP upgrade disk. I was wrong.
When I contacted Customer service I was told:
" I want to inform you that this "Touchsmart 3.0 application" is bundled along with the Windows 7 operating system preinstalled on the computer release after 22/10/2009.
I regret to inform you that  "Touchsmart 3.0 application" is Not available for download."

  • Error installing N-Trig MultiTouch software for HP TouchSmart tx2 1270us with OS Windows 7

    Hello. I would like to ask somebody to help me installing the Multitouch technology on my TouchSmart tx2 1270us Notebook PC. The original system came with OS Windows Vista. I bought an Upgrade for Vista from Microsoft and installed Windows 7. The problem is, that I can not use my Notebook as a Tablet( normally its working), because during the instalation of the file, downloaded from drivers&support page, comes an FATAL ERROR DURING INSTALATION, which says, that N-Trig HARDWARE was not found on my OS. The Multitouch technology does not work with WINDOWS VISTA. All I did before, was Windows reinstalation due to extremely slowed down system running, caused by too many installed programs and aplications. Exactly that reinstalation caused the whole problem. Now Im very sad about that and can not write on the display with a finger. Can anyone please help ME? If you want I can pay something. PLEASE HELP... Thanks.

    Hello DimtrijShal:
             Sorry to hear about Windows 7 failer. Are you able to do a full recovery using your orginal recovery disk? If so please back up all the files you have before doing it. Write down the Windows 7 product code also. We will need it ounce you have vista windows reinstalled. You can find it in the package it came in or in the control panel displaying computers information. This number is also none as product key.
         Now that your computer has been restored to original factory condition. You are now able to update Vista Windows to Windows 7 but this time you are going to use Windows Up Advisory open it up should be listed. This time just type in Windows 7 Product Code number and let it do its thing.
           You can also goto your computers update web-page and see what's all involved in Up grading to Windows 7 they may have HP's Touchsmart software upgrades listed for downloads. Most Touchsmart software is listed. I have not yet seen any that did not display them. Yes you are in the correct section for your post. Some one need to realise HP Touchsmart tx2 are Touch computers also. So do not move your post from here. Let us know if you are still having troubles with your upgrade. Thank you frrw

  • Touchsmart TX2 cannot install software from HP??!!

    I just bought this Touchsmart TX2 notebook (1250ED), but whenever I try to download  Touchsmart software or updates from HP,the installation process just stops and disappears!!!!!!!!! the installation has to be retried with recommended settings, which then also fails........
    This has happened with all sorts of Mediasmart software. Also with Paint IT! touch by Corel. ( all downloads clearly state that my OS & computer are compatible at the requirement section)
    If my touchscreen computer  ( and there aren't that many on the market) is not suitable for touchscreen-technology software then what's the use !!!!!!!!! I might as well sell it!
    Can anyone tell me what the h... is going on with this?!!!!
    I've installed the original software and upgraded to Windows 7 (32-bit). There is nothing wrong with the computer, it runs fine and passes all scans.

    first download the programs on your computer then install them...
    then tell us the results.. what happens...

  • TouchSmart tx2-1370us Recovery Disc Set Failure

    I am posting on behalf of my sister.  Here is her story:
    Her TouchSmart tx2-1370us notebook's screen broke a while back.  It was under warranty from where she bought it from so it was sent off to be repaired.  When it came back the screen was fixed but there was a note stating they had lost her Windows 7.  The computer loaded and ran perfectly fine but it had the 'this is not a genuine copy of windows' pop-up.  She claims she was unable to read the product key sticker under the computer good enough to get it to accept anything she entered.  When she called the store, they told her HP would be able to help recover it.  HP sold her recovery discs that were supposed to restore the computer.  It is a 3-disc set, 2 labeled System Recovery DVD Windows 7 Home Premium and 1 supplemental CD labeled Application & Driver Recovery CD.  The CDs were ran multiple times always coming up as unsuccessful after the first 2 CDs.  I won't get into her customer support experience but she claims she spoke on the phone with HP 6 times over the course of a week and nothing they had to say or offer helped.  Always unsuccessful recovery message.  She gave up, almost crying at this point, and I said I'd try.
    After a little searching I found a patch on HP's web site which would supposedly fix the recovery discs issue.  The patch was installed correctly, green checkmark and all, and all 3 CDs ran through successfully.  The computer rebooted and the HP Software Installation screen ran for a while before another restart then the usual recovery unsuccessful message.  I tried it plenty of times with the same result everytime.  I saved the log from the last go at it and will post it below.  It appears the BIOS states Vista as the OS but she bought the computer pre-loaded with Windows 7.  Could there be something in that fact causing an issue?
    Someone suggested to reset the BIOS to factory defaults but that didn't work either.
    When saving the log to USB I could see all the files, there's 3 drives listed SDV(C Local Disk(D & BOOT(X
    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
    Here is the log:

    Lets take a chance it is for W7
    go here and download the correct version of W7 (home or pro, they don't have a starter edition), bit version 32 or 64, and language, it will be a very large iso file, once downloaded, burn it to a DVD+R blank disc as an Image, this can be done on a Windows 7 PC, by right clicking on the iso file and select "open with" > "windows disc image burner"
    http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-windows-7-s​p1-iso-from-digital-river/
    This will make a regular windows 7 install disc you can use to get Windows installed, use the key to see if it will activate.
    Then you will have to download drivers for your particular model from the HP site and install.

  • Touchsmart tx2 1160ea only showing single touch in windows 7

    as stated above i have just updated to windows 7 32bit ultimate, and i can use multi touch to zoom and things like before but non of the windows 7 things work, like the multi touch in paint and windows explorer.
    The notebook is a touchsmart tx2 1160ea
    In system it's saying, pen and touch: pen and single touch input available
     Thanks for any help,
    Luke

    In case you have not found the answer yet, try n-trig website as well as hp.
    Found by downloading and installing:
    DuoSense_MTM_RTM_Win7_32bit_TouchSmartTX2_2.239.zi​p
    Rollback_x32.zip ( and using the driver folder within)
    WinTab_Setup_x32.zip
    The single point was replacd by 4 points !
    of course for a 64 bit OS, a 64 bit version of that software would be needed.
    Hope that works for you

  • IS IT EVEN POSSIBLE TO UPGRADE TOUCHSMART TX2 1274nr TO WINDOWS 7??? Many issues!

    Please...any expert have advice on upgrading the Touchsmart TX2-1274nr model from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Home Premium using the HP upgrade kit?
    I have had several HP help chats since I bought this touchsmart model, and I've only had it for a little over a week and a half.  And, it seems the HPOP chat does not allow me to type my sentences out fully...always cuts me off and chops up my sentences.  Plus, it seems the agents that "help me" never seem to understand ANYTHING I am asking.  This is quite frustrating, irritating and perplexing.
    I tried for the first time to upgrade yesterday, and I did not understand the compatibility report.  First, it says to update the "KEYBOARD FILTER" prior to upgrade.  I searched the computer and nothing comed up, so I have no idea WHAT EXACTLY this is so I can update the driver.  Secondly, it recommends uninstalling 11 programs...6 of which are games (which is fine).  However, it recommends uninstalling the ATI INSTALLER MANAGER and ATI CONTROL CENTER.  This is another VERY CONFUSING and VAGUE recommendation.  This is because only the ATI INSTALLER MANAGER is listed in Programs & Features list.  When you try to uninstall, it becomes confusing as to does one remove ALL ATI COMPONENTS...and, if not, how do you removed just the CCC and the INSTALLER MANAGER.  I managed to get the CCC uninstalled, by performing and "custom" uninstal of the ATI INSTALLER MANAGER in the Prgrams & Features list, but the INSTALLER MANAGER still remains on the computer.
    These problems proved for me confusing.  So, I go yet again to HP Help chat and the "tech" was NOT HELPFUL.  A little sarcastic & vague and just kept saying follow the onscreen instructions.  The instructions have me confused, which is why I was asking so WINDOWS 7 INSTALLED CORRECTLY.
    So, I went to another forum and asked for help.  I was advised that the Keyboard Filter most likely meant it was referencting the N-Trig DuoSense Digitizer, and I was provided the link to the manufacturer's site to download the Windows 7 compatible drivers.  HOWEVER, I could not find out why the compatibility report kept telling me to update the "Keyboard Filter" prior to upgrading.
    So, I ended up removing all on the compatibility report suggested removals prior to upgrading EXCEPT the KEYBOARD FILTER DRIVER UPDATE & the ATI INSTALLER MANAGER.
    I performed the full UPGRADE anyway.
    Sure enough, when all was said and done, after the "UPGRADE" it seemed my system was running noticably SLOWER THAN when it had Vista.  Secondly, I LOST MY TOUCHSCREEN ability.  So, I went back to the link the 3rd party forum person recommended for the N-Trip DuoSense Digitizer Windows 7 drivers...and the touchscreen function returned.  However, I KEPT LOSING MY INTERNET CONNECTION.  Well, my wifi apeared to show a full wireless connection to our home network, but I would open up internet explorer and it would load my home page.  I was able to maybe retain my internet explorer connection for a miunute or 2, and then no matter what website I enetered or link  I clicked...NOTHING.  It would just keep indicating it was loading but minutes would pass and nothing would happen.  Plus, the windows system in general seem to be running slower.
    So, I am highly irritated & upset over this.  And all my searching and researching on HP site and others seem to not giver SPECIFIC AND CLEAR ANSWERS to any of these issues.  WHY?????  Am I the only one to have ALL THESE ISSUES? This morning, I ended up performing a F11 Windows recovery back to Vista Home Premium.  What should I do? 
    Please, if anyone has had similar problems, sound off.  Moreover...PLEASE if you have updated your Touchsmart TX2-1274nr SUCCESSFULLY....PLEASE...PLEASE...ADVISE me as to how I may accomplish the same!
    I thank any advice/suggestions any of you may have in advance.  Kindly, Jimmyb30ohio

    I have the TX2 1012NR and its can upgrade just fine!  Here is a few recommendations "only if u have the HP Upgrade program disks"
    If you have them you can install a clean copy and delete everything... Do not use the use me first disk included because it prompts you to install an older BIOS....  Just use the windows 7 upgrade disk and start the process.  The clean install clears your entire drive but does not void your warranty!   When you use the use me first disk after the install it actually loads everything else needed to get you up in running.  The touchscreen driver and the HP Mediasmart programs will have to be downloaded from the HP support site.  Once again its recommended that if there were any programs installed delete them do not try to update them!  This causes issues and countless errors.  Specifically with touchscreen drivers etc uninstall them before installing the ones from HP support.  I found this was not the easy way to do it but the best way...  I also recommend that when doing any sort of BIOS update that you remove your Battery and leave it connected to a power cord only!  Last but not least if you really mess up and its under warranty... Send it to HP they will set it back up to factory defaults under Windows Vista with the more up to date BIOS installed.  I hope my information helps! Sure you might loose some programs but in the end your computer runs faster and smoother because all the programs installed are made for Windows 7....  Also they did release the Touch Pack for download from the Microsoft website here is a link telling more about the features and benefits and how to get it as it is a totally free download...

  • How to completely disable "Touchsmart OS software" Slows & interfers

    How to completely disable "Touchsmart OS software"  What a  Hassle it slows & interferes  Windows & applications.
    I can't find any information how to completely disable this software.  I can't imagine anyone likes it.  It just slows my computer & makes my other programs want to crash.  It wastes at least 2 to 5 minutes every single startup having to shut it down manually.
    I want it off my machine & I bet I am not the only one.  It reminds me of the old Windows over Dos mess.

    Brilliant1, welcome to the forum.
    When requesting help you should always include the make/model of the computer and/or monitor. This information is necessary for us to review the specifications of them.
    I believe that you can go into the Control Panel under "Pen and Touch".  You would uncheck the box "Use finger as input device" (some such words).
    I found this in another thread:
    Per HP Technical Support:  "Hp TouchScreen Configuration" has been replaced by "Pen and Touch."   More recent models would have "Pen and Touch," older models would have "HP TouchScreen Configuration."  The "Configuration" option does not appear on any TouchSmart 610 series all-in-one computers.   So to turn off the finger-operated TouchScreen one would use whichever appears on the Control Panel of the computer in question.

NOW, i'm not going to let my parents hard earned cash go to waste.....WTF is the point of this forum if HP DOESN"T EVEN ACKNOWLEGE ANY OF IT......I'm already neck deep in student loans....I can't afford fixing a computer with a defect.....So Hp i better hear something from you soon

    Hey NikosK,
    The one-blink code is indicating an issue related to CPU and/or system board (bent pins, etc.). It's possible that the system board needs to be replaced.

    I am having the exact same problem with the DoS beep that now sounds like screetching upon boot up. It is so bad that I can no longer turn off the computer, or it usually doesnt boot up for hours. I will give the USB keyboard trick a try tho.
    The worst of it is that I leave the computer on standby at night to avoid the boot issue, and the computer starts itself up at night, like 2am and starts beeping nonstop until I manually power it down with the power button. Ive been having these problems for 2 years, since I first purchased the computer, and I just recently found out that the battery has failed, even though the computer is ALWAYS plugged in, and has been used on battery mode for all of 10 hours max. I believe this boot problem is a battery related issue. This battery is not on the HP recall list (not surprisingly).
    I called HP customer support, and even contacted a case manager. They pretty much dont want to hear about the problem because I am out of warrantee x1 year. They pretty much dismiss it until I pay 330$ for repairs. They laugh at the anguish this night-time awakening is causing. Very disrespectful for HP customer service. Not sure if I will buy an HP again.
    Anyways, let's work on this issue together. Can anybody send me a link to that manual? I would like to try resetting the RAM. This computer is in brand new condition, and the keyboard, battery and boot are all malfunctioning for no reason at all.
    Best of luck in your search for answers.
