  • Macbook pro trying to connect to wrong mac address?

    Hey everyone,
    I'm running on a 2010 Macbook Pro OS X 10.7.2.
    Basically, my 309g-m stopped working the other day. I've tried reinstalling the drivers and software, but it still refuses to print (I get stuck at "looking for printer"). I have, however, noticed that when I'm adding a printer in system preferences, the printer is listed as "Photosmart Premium C309g-m [F1EDA7]." However, after connecting my printer to my network (via the printer), the page printed listed that my Hardware Address (MAC) is "78:e7:d1:f1:ed:a8" - So I think my Macbook is trying to connect to the wrong mac address.
    Any ideas? 
    P.S. I've tried to connect via IP and my computer cannot find the printer. 

    No, that all looks good.  Your printer's unique "name" is HP plus the last 6 digits of your printer's MAC address.
    On the front of the printer: Setup > Network > WIreless Network Test.  What does it say about the printer's wireless radio?
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • Doesn't load or open any website pages; only remains on a blank new tab

    Hey
    I am having problems with my firefox. When it opens it displays the defult mozilla page like usual. However when I try to open a site such as google.com or facebook.com, it just remains on the default page. Even when I try doing it on a blank new tab, it just remains blanks. Nothing loads and nothing happens.
    I have unistalled the program keeping all my content then reinstalled it, but it didn't work. I tried to uninstall it and deleting all my personal data and reinstalling it but it still doesn't work. I have also tried to reset firefox to its default state. Also does not work.
    Under the web console feature, it justs displays the time and GET http://www.facebook.com/ [0ms]
    I also have this problem with google chrome. My internet explorer (64-bit) is the only broweser to work.
    Please advice asap. I would prefer using firefox than any other browser.
    Thanks

    Did you remove all the rules for Firefox in your firewall?
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Left clicking on some links doesn't load, but opening in new tab always works.

    The best way to share this problem was with a video. So here's a short 7 second gif demonstrating the problem.
    http://i.imgur.com/k5Rs2WJ.gif
    Basically on some links, generally on a google search but occasionally elsewhere, if I left click to open them it will not load, it shows it's loading, but doesn't. If I middle click to open new tab, loads just fine 10/10 times. I've tested the same links on both IE and Chrome, and they work fine, so it does appear to be isolated to Firefox.

    I think I might have figured it out. It occured to me while I only have a couple of addons (adblock, cookieExFilter and Remove Google Tracking) that remove Google tracking .. might interfere with clicking on a link. And apparently it does. Though I'd have to continue to use without the addon for a while to be sure of it.

  • Page doesn't load on Open C?

    Hi,
    I was going to download an app (this one: https://marketplace.firefox.com/app/runrecorder?src=search) on my phone, but it came up with an error: "Sorry, we had trouble fetching this app's data. Please try again later."
    It's a hosted app, so I figured it may have been a weird problem with the marketplace. So I went to the actual web page of the app, but it didn't load. All other pages on my phone load fine, and all other apps download fine too.
    The weird thing is, using my laptop (or an FXOS simulator), the page loads perfectly fine, and the app downloads with no problems whatsoever. It loads fine on everything I've tried, except for my phone.
    I've tried restarting already, as well as logging out of my marketplace account and logging back in, to no avail.
    Any ideas? Thanks.
    EDIT: Resetting my phone and flashing my phone didn't work either. It's still just this one website. I don't understand...

    Which phone? What version of Firefox OS?

  • Report tries to connect to wrong database

    Hello,
    We're currently developing an ASP.NET C# Web Application and integrate some Crystal Reports using the CrystalReportViewer control. Our environment looks like this:
    <h1>Dev Environment:</h1>
    One machine using
    - Windows Server 2003
    - .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
    - IIS 6
    - SQL Server 2008 Developer Edition, Default instance
    - Crystal Reports 2008 (no service packs applied so far)
    <h1>Production Environment:</h1>
    One machine using
    - Windows Server 2008
    - .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
    - IIS 7
    - SQL Server 2008 Express Edition, Named instance
    I've designed the report on the Dev Environment. For this I created a new database connection inside the report to the Dev Database. We use OLE DB for SQL Server to connect to the database using sql authentication. We pass the login credentials in code. The report uses two sql server views and one sql table to display its data. The report is configured to not store data inside.
    To pass the login credentials, we use the same code as recommended in your code samples on https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/samples:
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Web;
    using System.Web.UI;
    using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
    using System.Configuration;
    using CrystalDecisions.Shared;
    namespace Ispin.Irma.Helpman
        public partial class ShowReport : System.Web.UI.Page
            protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
                ConfigureCrystalReports();
            private void ConfigureCrystalReports()
                string ReportPath = Server.MapPath("ReportCallTimeUsage.rpt");   
                ConnectionInfo connectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
                connectionInfo.ServerName = "ANANKE\\SQLEXPRESS";
                connectionInfo.DatabaseName = "Irma";
                connectionInfo.UserID = "<username goes here>";
                connectionInfo.Password = "<password goes here>";
                CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = ReportPath;
                SetDBLogonForReport(connectionInfo);
            private void SetDBLogonForReport(ConnectionInfo connectionInfo)
                TableLogOnInfos tableLogOnInfos = CrystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo;
                foreach (TableLogOnInfo tableLogOnInfo in tableLogOnInfos)
                    tableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = connectionInfo;
    <h1>Problem:</h1>
    When deploying the application and reports to the production environemt, the reports come up with a login window, forcing me to enter login credentials to the dev database. At this point I can only change the username and passwort fields, but not the server or the database. So, I'm unable to enter the correct login data to connect to the production system since this is on another machine.
    <h1>What I already did:</h1>
    - Install Crystal Reports 2008 runtime on production webserver (this helped, but the login problem still arises). I got the runtime from https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1kZSZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm, I've choosen the "Crystal Reports 2008 - Redistributable Installation" file, published on 10.09.2008.
    - Install Crystal Reports 2008 Trial Edition on production server (I could start the report sucessfully out of the designer using the login credentials for the productive database server).
    It seems that the code for passing the credentials at runtime is not effective. It looks as if the report is saving login credentials inside the rpt file. but why? It must be possible to pass login credentials by code. Can you please provide me additional hints for getting this thing to work?
    Thank you very much.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 - Trying to connect to wrong wireless network.

    I have cable wireless and due to provider requirements I have had to disable my hub wireless and plus in another router to the hub to provide wireless. The hub has a network name and the router has the same name but shows a "2" after it.  When I try and connect my printer to this itonly picks up the Hub and says wireless is disabled which is correct.  How can I get it to recognise the router instead?
    I hope this makes sense

  • I click on the Mozilla icon and it will not load. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall but that doesn't work either

    I have tried to open Firefox, but it just sits there and doesn't load. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall but that works for a few hours and then it goes back to not loading. I don't know what else to do to get it too load.

    Right-click on your Windows Taskbar and select Start Task Manager. Look in Task Manager for processes running that are Firefox-related, such as Firefox.exe or plugin-container.exe. If you see either of those, right-click each of them and select "End process". Then try again to start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. <br /><br />
    *If Firefox will start in Safe Mode, select the option you are presented with to disable your add-ons and plug-ins and restart Firefox normally. You likely have a plug-in, add-on, or a combination of two or more that is causing the problem. Because Firefox allows users to customize endlessly, sometimes there can be conflicts between customized items. From the Firefox menu bar, go to<br /><br />Tools -> Add-ons<br /><br />then re-enable them one by one, restarting Firefox after each and testing after each one to see which one or combination of two or more is causing the problem. <br /><br />
    *If Firefox will not start in Safe Mode, make sure you again check Task Manager and end any running instances, then uninstall Firefox and download a fresh copy from mozilla.org/firefox using another browser temporarily. Re-install Firefox (see: [[Installing Firefox on Windows]] for more help ) and try running Firefox again.
    Please report back your progress.

  • Pictures not appearing in Open dialogue

    When I try to attach a picture to an email or document, Aperture appears in the Media-Photo section of the Open dialogue, but no pictures show up. It looks as though there are no pictures in the Aperture library (there are thousands). I am running Aperture 3, sharing is set to Always in the Aperture settings and all the masters are in the Aperture library. Can someone help? Thanks!

    Thanks - I was generating previews, so not sure why they would not show up - perhaps because I have just upgraded to this current machine from an older MacBook Pro. However, I created a new Library, imported photos from outside and inside the original library and now everything appears. I still wonder what was going on, but at least everything now seems to be working properly.
    Thanks again.

  • In the ReportDocument.Load method it tries to connect using the using the connection information embedded in the Report File

    Post Author: bhaveshbusa
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    In the ReportDocument.Load method it tries to connect using the using the connection information embedded in the Report File. When the application calls ReportDocument.Load(reportFileName). This
    tries to connect to the database using the connection information embedded in
    the "reportFileName". This was only realised on checking the ODBC Trace
    Log. The connection itself is not a problem. The problem is that the embedded
    connection information is related to OLD production system. And failed
    connections had raised some concerns.
    Note: I am using
    SetDataSource to populate the data for the report. So I don't need the
    connection.
    Is there any way I
    can disable this auto-connect?
    Thanks and
    regards,

    I need a help in answering one of the issue encountered last week.
    I have created a database link and tried to access the information from a table using the program written in another language. The password provided was incorrect for that user while creating database link. So we expected that,while retrieving the data, Database connection has to be errored out as password provided is incorrrect.
    But unfortunately, user account was locked out. When i checked with DBAs they mentioned that it tries to connect 16 ports with in a min of time.we were shocked as it STOPS another scheduled jobs with that user. and affects production badly.
    As per the program, it has to connect only one time and yesterday we tried to execute the program in DBAs observation and it errored out as expected. Didn't tried for multiple ports.
    Now the question is, WHY the database connection established 16 times last week and caused user account locked. DBAs are unable to answer it. Any EXPERTs opinion on this would greatly appreciated.
    I have verified managing ports in oracle documentation, it was mentioned that if one port is busy it will try to connect to another port in the range of ports mentioned during the installtion. DBAs verified ports related file and it was blank. and they are not agreeing with this reason. Please HELP me in finding the correct REASON for this.
    is it a NETWORK issue or issue with DATABASE SERVER only?
    Thanks

    The security code is the 3 or 4 digit number on the credit card that you have on your account : How to find the security code on a credit card.
    To correct/add it to your account then if using your phone then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should give you a payment details link on your account's page. If using your computer's iTunes then you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should also be a payment details link.

  • Mac/iPhoto trying to connect to an old server that no longer exists

    I have a MacBook Air, running OS X 10.7.5
    Because I was running out of space and set up an AFP connection to a NAS.  The NAS is now dead and gone, but in certain situations the Mac tries to connect
    1. In MS Office, if I have the ClipArt/Shape/etc browser open, it tries to connect to the server - is a PITA but I can live with it
    2. In iPhoto, it constantly tries to connect, particularly if I am using the slideshow feature - Has rendered iPhoto unusable.
    The iPhoto situation is that I perhaps foolishly connected to a photo folder on the NAS share and iPhoto imported a bunch of pictures from there.  Now that the server is offline, it constantly looks for them and tells me that it can't connect.
    I can still see the thumbnails but obviously it cannot access the full files. I don't know exactly which folders are NAS pictures and which are not
    I've found some similar topics but not a satisfactory answer. 
    How can I stop this message - how can I stop the Mac from trying to connect to a server that is never going to be there?

    The location should be /Users/your name/Pictures. You can change this by holding down the option or alt key (the ones immediately to the left or right of the cmd keys either side of the spacebar) whilst clicking on the iPhoto application icon in your dock and making an informed choice from the options you see.
    By default iPhoto creates an iPhoto Library (the folder where all your data in iPhoto is stored) in the /Users/your name/Pictures folder. It seems that in the past you must have selected an externally or network attached volume named TOSHIBA as the location for the iPhoto Library instead using the instructions I've given you. All you have to do is revert it back to the location you now want.

    I've had my iPhone 4 for about 4 months now, and suddenly some apps aren't working. They open and appear to work, but as soon as you try to do something it doesn't load. I tried deleting the app and reinstalling it. I also force shut down my phone. I synced it to iTunes. Nothing is working. Does anyone know what I can do?

    Basic troubleshooting steps oultlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
    You need to go through all steps in succession until your problem is solved.  If going through ALL these steps fails to resolve your issue, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.
