Lost all printer drivers this morning

Went to print an AOL e-mail message and found that all of my printer drivers were gone.
The only one listed was to "One Note 2007" which is not even on my computer.
Went to HP and downloaded a new driver.
Ran a Norton review of my computer and nothing was found.  Tried
to ask a question in support and was kicked out of the queue twice.
AOL started a new mail system today.

I've been seeing this a lot over the past few weeks.  I can't narrow it down though...  I'm in the same boat!  I have several clients that use HP USB printers and they seem to lose their printer(s) every couple of days or every 2 weeks (depending).  Like I said, I don't know what it is but it's becoming an issue.  I've even gone so far as to reload the OS (WinXP), thinking it was a corrupt OS.  The printers just disapear now and then!!!

  • HT1766 I lost my IPhone 4S this morning and want to increase my cloud storage so I can back it up when it finds a signal and then remotely erase it...I'm assuming the worst that whoever finds is will not callme or want to return the phone

    I lost my IPhone 4S this morning and want to increase my cloud storage so I can back it up when it finds a signal and then remotely erase it...I'm assuming the worst that whoever finds is will not call me or want to return the phone. I went to icloud but it only govers me options to increase storage from my iPhone or a synced computer (mac or PC).

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

    How did you get them to install the first time and where did you get them?
    Read the Installation Guide, Boot Camp 4.0 FAQ and the Windows 7 FAQ.

  • I've lost my printer drivers

    My Canon i850 has not been printing correctly for a while, and nothing I've tried to fix it, has helped, so as a last effort I thought I'd uninstall and reinstall the driver (updated).  I tried the newest driver, from Canon, and it did print, but as poorly as before.  Thinking maybe the other driver available (also for 10.5.8)  would work, I uninstalled/installed.  Tried to print but printer was not found.  Then tried to go back to newest driver, but again, printer not found.
    Used my 10.5.8 install disc to add 'optional' printer drivers.  Installation was successful but when I click on system pref/printers/+ (for add printers) there is nothing under default and nothing in 'more'.  Clicking on printers under library does show me the list I installed. 
    I may have caused this problem by deleting something I shouldn't have:  When uninstalling, a tutorial I found explained deleting files under Printer, Receipts, and CFM--which I did and had success with the first driver download.  At some point in subsequent attempts,  I deleted a plist file.  At this point I'm not sure if I found it in the trash, or put it there---or if it's relevant.
    I would greatly appreciate any suggestions about what I may have messed up, and how to fix it.
    Thank you!

    I have found that the Canon install procedure for its printers can be finicky unless all the steps are followed exactly. I have had a few Canon printers and multi-function devices, and in a couple of cases of experiencing something like you are facing, I went back to the original install CDs that came with the printer or device. You need to follow their instructions precisely, step by step. In every case, I ended up resolving the issue by doing this. (It might be good to uninstall any drivers you have recently installed before doing this.)
    The fact that you deleted some unknown files indicates that you could benefit from this "clean reinstall."

  • Cisco Unified CCX desktop agents were all logged off this morning

    Hi All,
    We have CCX with 23 Premium seats running System version: 8.0.2.11002-3.
    This morning,  all of the desktop agents were all logged offf at the same time with the exception of one agent who was on a call when the problem occurred.
    All agents were able to log back into the system.
    Some had to tick a box "log the other user off" and some had to reboot their pcs.
    Does anyone have any tips for me to troubleshoot this sort of problem?
    The fact that when the users tried to log back in and the system said they were already logged in on that user id tells me that something unuaual has happened with the software.
    Thanks so much for any assistance
    Regards,
    Amanda Lalli-Cafini

    Hi Amanda,
    There could be several reasons here.
    1. CUCM or CM Telephony service getting restarted.
    2. UCCX or any of its desktop related services getting restatred. Failover\Failback happening in case of HA system.
    3. Network connectivity issues.
    To find out the exact reason for failure, you need to check the logs from both the UCCXand CAD side.
    And also if you login into UCCX serviceability page and navigate to control center, you could see since how long each of the UCCX services are up and running, try to see which is the service running from least time, which will give you an indication of this service restart.
    CAD logs path,
    C:\Program Files\Cisco\Desktop\log
    UCCX logs can be downloaded from the RTMT tool, please see the MIVR, MCVD logs in this time duration.
    Hope it helps.

  • My Hp touch smart with Windows 7 premium randomly loses all printer drivers.

    My new system will Randomly drop all  printers.   I don't think it matters if its wired or wireless through the router.  when I  try to print it says that there is no printer installed.   When I go and look in the control panel there are no drivers there.   Sometimes I can close the program (usually quickbooks) ,and when I reopen the software it will work fine.  Other times I have to close everything and reboot.   Often I will have printed something just a few minutes before with no problems and then all of a sudden nothing.  I don't have time to shut down the computer and restart it every third time I want to print something.   I don't know how the drivers disappear from the controll panel an suddenly reappear on restart.  I have also had an error that there was no printer spooler whenI tried to reinstall after tehy were lost the first couple of times. 
    Thanks for any help.

    just to verify.   My main printer is connected by USB to my computer and the driver still disappears when this problem occurs.

  • Lost all printing with Leopard a few months ago, need to fix, please help.

    I think all of my printing capabilities went away a few months ago when i updated to 10.5.6. haven't been able to fix it on my own.
    I have a hp 130 and a konica 6500 with a ic-304 creo. the hp is set up from a windows printer server and connected through a networked ethernet. the creo is pretty much its own print server with ip address, also available through the windows print server.
    I go to add my printer, enter in the ip address, or browse, choose my driver, add printer, ect. if I am able to accomplish those tasks, then i attempt a print, only to have the que instantly stopped, and i can't get it to resume printing or to print.
    for the last few months, i've been using a tiger laptop, a virtual XP on the macpro, the Xp box on the konica printer and a thin client PC to print. but I'd really like to regain print functionality on the macpro and not have to deal with windows anymore.
    have tried those weird security login things that pop up when i try to resume printing: (server/username), (username/server), (guest), updating firmware, re-installed drivers.
    please help, I really don't understand security, or how to make it work with printing, or bypass it entirely. i don't know how to get printing back.

  • HT1338 I have happily been using Airdrop and printing wirelessly to my Epson WF 7520 printer until this morning when I started my Quad Core 2.4 and got the wireless icon grayed out with a "wi-fi not installed" message. Restarts do nothing. Ideas?

    Anyone else having issues with their wi-fi suddenly disappearing?
    Is this really a hardware issue out of the blue or could this be a software bug?

  • When loading CS2 I lost all OS 9 printing capabilities

    This may be in the wrong category,, but it could fall in a number of places:
    I believe it's a first Gen G5 currently running OSX 10.3.9, and has always (Im user #2 on the machine) been running OS 9 concurrently. A while ago I installed Adobe CS2, at the time I lost all printing. I was able to regain OSX printing but anything from OS 9 refused to print. This is a problem that I have found a way around but would really like to know why?

    If you have your contacts in Outlook or Address Book you should be able to sync them back.  If you only had them on your phone, and if you backed up your iPhone by syncing with iTunes before you went to the Apple store, you might be able to extract your contacts from this old backup using 3rd party software such as: http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/.

  • Lost broadband this morning

    Hello,
    I've lost the broadband connection this morning. The phone line seems fine but the broadband light in the bthub3 is always off. Tried normal troubleshooting, but still no line. It's like there's no adsl carrier on my line.
    I'm on the online chat with a representative but he doesn't seem much help, just goign all troubleshooting again..

    Yes I know, it's just that i've done all troubleshooting before calling
    And it became clear at one point in the conversation that I knew more about DSL than the guy on the other end of the line.
    Anyways, I managed to get the fault registered and hopefully it will be fixed soon because I use my connection for work!!!
    I'm currently tethering my iphone so I can connect to work.

  • Lost my bluetooth mouse connection twice this morning - why?

    My iMac 21.5" bluetooth mouse lost its connection twice this morning. The 2nd time for a long time (like 5-10 minutes). The battery indicator is still showing 36%. During this time the bluetooth keyboard had no problems.
    It was very frustrating! I should get a wired mouse as a backup!
    But in the meantime, what generally causes a problem like this? It's certainly not a proximity issue.
    Thanks,
    doug

    Of course you can't reset preferences, delete bluetooth and re-pair or do anything that requires using the mouse to do something as long as you don't have a working mouse.
    I did change the batteries, but that didn't help either. It just seemed to eventually connect again.
    I'll take a look at the link though. Thanks.
