N911a on win 8.1 lost ability to scan.

HP np11a worked fin on win 8.1 usb. 
Now cannot get to scan function

Hi @MottHaven,
I see that you aren't able to scan now. I can help you with this today.
I have provided a document with some steps to try to see if that will resolve the issue.
Run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. 
A 'Connection Error' or 'No Computer Detected' Error Message Displays during Scanning.
Check to make sure the Windows Image Acquistion Services are running.
Windows: HP Scan Software Does Not Open or Scan on a Printer Using a USB Connection.
Go to Solution three: Check the Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) services.
You can always do a system restore back to before this issue started. How to refresh, reset, or restore your PC.
Select Restore your PC to an earlier point in time.
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
Did you add any new software or hardware to the computer? 
Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
Have a nice weekend! 
Thank You.

  • HP Envy 5530 e-all-in-one... lost ability to scan a page to email...

    Error "there was a problem connecting to the server"  came up when trying to scant to email on my Chromebook via the clouds.  Was working.  prior to being shut down for a week while on vacation.  I can scan to a ssd chip and get to PC that way.  I printed out Config. page. Internet & status show connected.  Router/modem ok for my pc, and wife's.  Hit retry several times... no good.  Attempted several full tries.  Got a new password, no change.  Shut down equipment a couple of times... no change.  Printer approx... 100 days old.  Low end printer for low usage, and low price... can't invest too much in it for fixing.  But, not eager to buy another one either!? Hum? Any ideas?

    Hi Sturgeon,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I understand that you have encountered difficulties when trying to use the scan to email feature of your Envy 5530 printer.
    There are several steps I would like you to try please. 
    Please turn off your printer. 
    Please turn off your router.  If your router doesn’t have an on/off switch, please unplug the power cord from the router.
    After waiting a full 60 seconds please turn on your router (or plug it back in). 
    After the router has completed its startup routine please turn on your printer.
    After the printer has completed its startup routine, please test the scan to email feature.  If it works there no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
    Please set a manual IP address and manual DNS servers for the printer. I have included a link to another post with the steps, including screen shots on how to do this.   Don’t worry that the screen shots show a Photosmart 7510 printer, the steps are the same.
    Please test the scan to email feature.  If it works there is no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
    Please call HP’s Cloud Services at 1-855-785-2777 if you live in the USA/Canada region. If you live outside the USA/Canada region please click here to find the Technical Support number for your country/region.
    Thank you.

  • Lost ability to scan using Office Pro L7680 after latest OS X 10.9.5 update

    Arg! The Sept 30 OS X 10.9.5 update seems to have disrupted the abilty to scan. I get "Failed to open a session on the device" error.
    I did the full un-instill and re-install. No love.
    Ideas?

    Sorry, I should have finished the thread. I went to the Apple App Store and found a free app that supported hp printers. When I loaded that, the Mac discovered it needed drivers which I then downloaded through the normal process.
    All good here - finally.

  • In lion os lost ability to scroll back into folders

    In Lion OS have lost ability to scroll back and forth in folders within folders on mouse. Bought Trackpad - still cannot do it. Asked about it at Apple store - even had an employee create multiple folders within folders - could not get the mouse or trackpad to scroll. Had to use back arrows.

    I have found the same issue - this is very frustrating and I'm at a lost to understand why this functionality has been removed ... or is it only happening to some systems?  Being able to "swipe" through folders was great and the whole "gestures" aspect of Lion was significantly hyped.
    Has anyone else found the same problem?
    Thanks.

  • TS1722 Have lost ability to open Boot Camp on start up or restart. Only Mac icon shows up. Worked perfectly for two years and now it implodes. Any hope of re-opening Boot Camp?of recapturing data in

    Have lost ability to open Boot Camp on start or restart. Icon does not show up. Had been working for 2 years, then nothing. Recently had problems with Kodak Easy Share in PC partition. Any connection? Any hope of reopening Boogt Camp without losing data already there?

    Can you see there is a partition?
    Can you boot Windows 7 DVD?
    Did you think you would never need a backup image?
    So no Safe Boot, no F8, possible?
    Paragon CampTune
    Paragon CampTune is a commercial product that is designed expressly for this task. http://www.paragon-software.com/home/camptune/ It consists of a downloadable ISO that needs to be burned to a disc and booted from in order to resize the partitions. During testing it was available free, but now costs US$19.95. MR user Rodus reports that it damaged their OS X partiton and a reinstall was required, so heed the warning and have a backup.
    Paragon Partition Manager
    From the makes of CampTune is a commercial tool that is similar in functionality to GParted Live, but has a more polished/friendly user interface than GParted Live. Previously only the US$79.95 Professional version supported all the features required for this, but as of version 11 the US$39.95 Personal version has also been reported to work. http://www.paragon-software.com/home/pm-personal/
    Securing Dual-System Configuration
    Imaging is still the most affordable and robust way to secure computer data. Unfortunately Mac OS X backs up only HFS+ volumes, leaving Windows with dual-system configurations unsecured. You can permanently lose all of your data unless you have a Windows-compatible backup solution.
    Paragon’s CampTune and Paragon’s Drive Copy for Mac can secure the entire dual-system configuration. CampTune creates traditional images of volumes or entire hard disks, Drive Copy can copy them to other disks. In case of an emergency, you can restore the previously created image or copy all your data back to its original state.
    Winclone/Disk Utility
    Winclone is a free tool for creating and restoring backup images of your Windows partition. One of its key features is that it can restore to a larger partition than the one the image was created from.
    NOTE: Winclone has been discontinued, but for now remains available and capable of completing these tasks (including creating and restoring Windows 7 images).
    Winclone updated to support Lion Winclone updates and download
    Disk Utility can resize HFS+ (Mac OS) partitions, but is currently incapable of resizing NTFS partitions, so you could use it to reduce the size of the HFS+ partition and create a new larger placeholder MS-DOS (FAT) partition
    The full process would be:
    Backup Windows partition with Winclone.
    (if the new Windows partition is smaller than the old one make sure you set the preferences in Winclone to save the image as an uncompressed dmg)
    Delete old Windows partition
    Resize current Mac Partition
    Create new Windows partition as MS-DOS (FAT) in free space after Mac OS partition.
    (If the new Windows partition is smaller than the old one an additional step is required: shrink the filesystem on the image by selecting Tools->Shrink Windows (NTFS) Filesystem)
    Reboot your computer for the new Windows partition to mount properly (winclone may not restore if you don't reboot)
    Restore Winclone partition over new Windows partition
    An alternate Winclone based process is described in the External Guides section

  • I've just upgraded to V5.0 and now I have lost ability to 'open in new tab'

    I've just upgraded to V5.0 and now I have lost ability to 'open in new tab' whats happening?

    Thanks but I've reinstalled V4 until V5 is stable and more or less working the way I want to work - not the way some programmer thinks I should want to work.
    You know change is OK but only if it makes things better for the user Change shouldn't be made to make the developer feel good about his/her expertise. For me V4 was Good. V5 gives me too many issues to deal with - I just need a relatively simple browser (and I guess I'm not the only 1 out there that feels like this).

    But did you repair Acrobat?  The Adobe PDF printer is a function of Acrobat, not Adobe Reader.  Uninstalling/reinstalling Acrobat does essentially the same thing as a repair, but takes a bit longer.

  • I'm using Entourage 2008 v 12.3.5 and lost ability to SEND.  Tried many small email tests.  Server continues to leave time out message.  "An operation on the server timed out. The server may be down, overloaded, or there may be too much net traffic.

    I'm using Entourage 2008 v 12.3.5 and lost ability to SEND.  Tried many small email tests.  Server continues to leave time out message.  "An operation on the server timed out. The server may be down, overloaded, or there may be too much net traffic."  Comcast tells me server is not down all other network activity is fine.  WHat's up with this?

    Starting earlier today, this also became my problem - can receive but not send in Entourage. The account settings are correct in Entourage - I even created a new account.  My Mac running 10.7.5 won't read the original Office : MAC 2008 disk, so I can't do a fix or reinstall from the disk.
    This is not an issue if I log onto the Comcast site.
    And so, I started using Mail but, unlike Entourage, Mail won't import my Entourage info.
    Argh...  :-(

  • Lost my ability to scan after update...Hp laser jet cm1312nfi MFP

    lost my ability to scan after update...Hp laser jet cm1312nfi MFP

    The scanner should work using Image Capture, have you checked to see if the device is seen when you launch Image Capture. It  is possible the device is simply hidden and you cannot see it.
    If you cannot see it then use the Reset Printing System feature. 
    Finally if you still have no luck then you may have to pay for a scanning app, VueScan is highly recommended and can be found by clicking VueScan

  • Lost ability to access map after upgrade to Lightroom 4.2

    403. That’s an error.
    After upgrading to Lightroom 4.2, have lost ability to access maps.  Suspect it may have something to do with client access. On one occasion got message.
    Your client does not have permission to get URL/maps/api/js?sensor=false&v=3.6&callback=initial%20ize&region=ENfrom this server. That’s all we know.
    However, have been unable to replicate this.
    Using Mac OSX 8.2
    Any clues?

        Hello Luiz
    I'm so sorry you lost those features. Let's look into this. Which device do you have? Did you have the pictures backed up with an application?

  • Upgraded to Yosemite and lost ability to send email!

    UPGRADED TO YOSEMITE AND LOST ABILITY TO SEND EMAIL!!

    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
         computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
         screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Please use mixed case in your posts. CAPs is shouting and is poor netiquette.

    I am having this problem as well. In the last week or two, my calendars haven't been syncing properly. Nothing goes updates to my main computer from the phone.
