On my photosmart C4200 series printer, error message says USB not connected
I have a hp photosmart C4200 series it's saying the USB not connected. I made sure all connections were secure and still same message. I unplugged it and then plugged back in at tower and printer, still same. I changed out cable, still same problem. Is there anything else I can do aside from buying a new printer? Thanks, Jenn
Hi @jennirvinpest,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that you are getting the error message that says your USB is not connected with your HP Photosmart c4200 series.
For further assistance, I will need some more information:
The Product/Model Number of your printer. Follow instructions in this link. Finding Your HP Product Model Number.
If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
If the printer is able to make copies.
If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
Thank you for posting, and hope to hear from you soon!

When trying to connect to the itunes store on my MacBook Pro, I get the following error message: "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. An unknown error occurred (-54) Make sure your network connection is active and try again."

This may or may not work for you but its worth a try even though it didnt seem to work for me, Good Luck!

ITunes error message / "iTunes could not connect to the music store...
The past week, I have been having problems connecting to the iTunes music store. I purchased my ipod in 10/05 and have had no problems until recently. I keep receiving the following error message:
"iTunes could not connect to the music store. Network connection was refused. Make sure your network settings are correct & network connection is active, then try again."
I went onto the website, and checked various things. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and the software, checked to see if I have any firewalls (none), checked to see if I have Windows XP service pack 2 (I have 1), and contacted my ISP (AOL). Help! I have AOL 8.0 dial up, and have had service with them for a couple of years now, so that is not an issue. Per AOL, I tried uninstalling AOL adapter and restarting my computer, and also deleting cookies and deleting files/all offline content, defaulted my security settings (they were the same), and reset web settings. I have restarted my computer, but am still having the same issues. I already contacted iTunes about this issue, and they sent me the same email twice, with the same instructions as their website, which I indicated I already tried numerous times. I have also checked my connections, and everything is fune. I try to access iTunes after logging into AOL.
Thank you in advance to everybody that responds.
EmilyThanks for the input. Unfortunately, I keep trying to do that, and have not been able to download for about a week. After contact customer support, I received the general "technical support" email, which is the same information found on the website. After replying to the email, which stated that I tried already tried the methods listed, I received the same email again. After replying to that email which included the previous threads, I received an email stating that the deparment I replied to does not handle technical issues. So, tonight, I re-emailed them with all of the threads and asked for an explanation of why I received technical emails if they do not respond to technical emails. It will be interesting to see how they respond, although it will probably be some general email. I sometimes respond to member service emails at my place of employment, so I know the procedure. The bottom line is that I should receive answers to my questions, even if the answer is something along these lines:
"I am researching your problem, and will contact you within the next xx hours/business days with a resolution. We value you as a customer, and strive to maintain excellent customer support and satisfaction. Thank you for your patience."
Or, a similar response. I know there is a general response library. And, I also know that if some body is unable to answer a question, as customer support, they should try utilize their resources. Basically, be a problem solver. -
Error message: itunes could not connect to the itunes store
Hi All,
I'm a rookie to the whol Apple ipod nano, etc, etc. I bought the generation 3 nano yesterday. I successfully downloaded a CD to the nano, but when i tried to download a tv show and open itunes i get the follow error message:
"itunes could not connect to the itunes store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
The funny thing is, is that i'm not even on a network. I'm just doing this from home and not connected to a network. internet connection works, I ran the diagnostic and nothing weird came up? Any suggestion for a newbee.Hi, I am having the same problem and I get the message: "iTUNES could not connect to the iTUNES store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I just downloaded 2 songs no problem, after uploading the latest version on iTUNES online. I closed the program and tried again, same message. My cable internet connection works just fine, so I am assuming the problem is on their end. I will check in with you guys to see if someone figured it out.
Thanks

Hp recovery on laptop gives error message "destination drive not connected"
I'm trying to carry out factory reset on my 2012 G6 laptop product code B2Y48EA*ABU serial no. [Personal Information Removed] to factory settings using set of 5 recovery discs
I followed the procedure shown here (although the screen messages are slightly different)
http://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/c01867418
I started the laptop with disc 1 in the dvd drive and the hp program was displayed. I selected "factory reset" and followed promts
When the 4 th disc is in dvd drive and the process is about53% compltete it stops with the error message
"destination drive not connected"
and fails
Earlier the recovery manager reported that the partion on the hard drive had been re-forrmatted so the drive was connected then!
All help and suggestions appreciatedHi there @Teka,
I understand that you are having trouble with a System Recovery to a factory image using recovery disks. I am happy to help you with this.
Are those five disks a set that you created using the recovery manager, or is it a set you ordered from HP?
Is there any sign of damage, scratches or smudges on the disk it fails on?
Have you tried cleaning the DVD drive?
Also take a look through these pages, in particular the troubleshooting page, and see if anything there is of use.

Let me know how it goes for you.
