Photosmart 7960w printer- which driver/procedure to work with Windows 7 64-bit

RE: HP Photosmart 7960w printer- any success with a driver or workaround to use with Windows 7 64-bit? There seem to be three options on the HP site, but it's not clear at all what will work.

Hi there,
The Photosmart 7960 Photo Printer does not have full support in Windows 7.  There is no driver available to download on the hp site, but instead there is a limited driver built into the Windows 7 operating system.  What this means is that basic print functionality will work for your product in Windows 7, but you might lose some other functionalities.  This document on the HP support site explains what is available to you.  You might also find this support document helpful.  Hope that helps!
Thanks!
Tara

    hi erabbath,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    If you have the Intel Centrino N2230 Wireless + Bluetooth adapter, can you try to:
    1. Navigate to the Control Panel (large icon view) > Devices and Printers and try to pair a bluetooth device (i.e. Bluetooth Headset) and observe if it gets detected under the device list.
    2. If the Bluetooth Headset is listed but it's not working try toright click on it > choose Properties. On the bluetooth properties Window, go to the Services Tab and check all the appropriate bluetooth services.

    Let me know your findings.

  • Where are LETOOLS for USB? The "ADB" Driver does not work with Windows XP

    I just give up with Lenovo's arcane maze of endlessly-looping driver searches.  I managed somehow to get something called an "ADB Driver" which was supposed to allow Windows XP to recognize my tablet as a K1 Ideapad.  I downloaded the 8+mb file which installed fk knows where and plugged in my K1 tablet.  Windows recognized that it had a USB device, and when prompted to hunt for the driver (which of course I couldn't find, since Lenovo sent it into the ether) I had to back out and then hunt through my entire Windows directory for an inf file containing the word "Android". 
    For the unsuspecting, it hides in something called -- get ready for it -- OEM16. 
    I guess the L, N and V keys were missing on the keyboard of the moron who labeled this pos driver.  Oh good programming Lenovo NOT but since a chimpanzee programmed Lenovo's driver site I suppose it's of a piece that a baboon packaged this worthless driver.  This isn't an eCommerce site it's a zoo.
    I guess it was too difficult for Lenovo to include a CD with their Windows USB driver family on it.  I mean . . . that would have cost them $.0000002.  Jesus wept.
    All I want to do is have XP know that the "USB Human Interaction" device I have plugged in is my K1 Lenovo tablet.  Don't send me to Google for a USB/Windows Android driver, they direct everyone to the site of the manufacturer of the tablet.  And don't insult my intelligence by even countenancing the possibility that Google's arch rival would stoop to offer any means for their OS to talk to (cough hack) Android.
    I get that it has to be a Lenovo driver and/or program.  So where the f is it? because this is massively pissing me off.  And one other thing:  No link to Lenovo.  I don't appreciate being manipulated by Lenovo's flash crap only to land on a driver download site that says "We can't find it."
    No.  Direct me please to any non-lenovo download portal that has the most recent version of LETOOLS and hope I don't have to come back here with yet more frustration.  This is the most needlessly idiotic driver service I have ever had the misfortune of being tethered to and I hope never to have to engage with it ever again.  May I please know where LETOOLS can be downloaded?  Thank you.

    Hi know-vo,
    I'm sorry that you couldn't find LETools. I've cheked with internal team and was told that actually we do have the software, but it's called "Synchronization Software". Did you try that?
    If you browse to ADB Driver page by clicking "Learn More" in support site, there is a note indicating that this ADB driver works with Synchronization Software.
    Sorry for all the inconvenience caused and. I hope this info above helps.
    Cheers,

  • DVD optical drive no longer works with Windows under bootcamp or parallels

    For some strange reason, the DVD optical drive- Optiarc 5680 on my 27" iMac, no longer works anymore with Windows under Parallels or Bootcamp. It used to work perfectly fine before, but now it just shows up with a yellow exclamation mark under Device Manager and Code 39 "Windows cannot load the device driver..."
    The DVD drive continues to still work fine with OSX. But it won't work anymore under Windows via Parallels or bootcamp, despite trying to uninstall the optical device drivers, update, reinstall, etc. Anybody else experiencing this or have any ideas?

    Finally found the solution for anybody else who runs into this problem. It was solved by doing a registry mod in Windows from this site:
    http://aumha.org/win5/a/xpcd.php#problems
    described in “My CD drives have vanished (from Explorer, Device Manager, etc.)”
    After applying the registry changes the DVD optical drive worked instantly again with Windows....sigh...guess I can't blame the Mac on this one.

  • Which MacPro doesn't work with Windows 7

    One question for curiosity and one I need to act on:
    I've got a MacPro 2x2.66 GHz Intel Xeon with 5GB Ram. Is there a way for me to tell whether I can run Windows7 in a BootCamp partiton? The documentation seems to indicate that "mid 2006" version of my machine will not run Windows 7 for some reason I don't understand.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3986
    Mac Pro (Mid 2006, Intel Xeon Dual-core 2.66GHz or 3GHz)
    Also, I've got an existing XP BootCamp install on one of my 500 GB hard drives on my MacPro desktop which I am accessing from the other 500 GB hard drive running OSX. I am using Parallels to do this but will boot directly into XP if the software requires it for performance.
    Can anyone help me figure out if I should do a Windows 7 partition on my new MacBookPro or whether I should stick with Windows XP for this partition? I also plan on accessing it via Parallels on this machine and then booting directly into the Windows partition if the need arises. I believe I will be storing all my files on the OSX "side" of the hard drive.
    I guess if I do the XP install I only have to keep track of one set of drivers? Any reason to do Windows 7 on the Laptop? Any suggestions on minimum size?
    Thanks,
    Jon

    I guess I can do a Win7 install on the new MacBookPro but my MacPro circa 2007 is considered a "MacPro circa 2006" and won't do what I reasonably could have expected when I bought this machine in 2007 - which is run windows software with some reasonable level of similarity to any other computer that runs windows software...

  • Ipod Touch STILL won't work with Windows 64-bit

    Argh!
    So, I've read the entries about the new Itunes 7.6, and how it should work with my Ipod Touch.
    I uninstalled all my previous Itunes, and Quicktime software. I then installed the new Itunes64.exe. Everything worked fine.
    But then, I connected by Itouch and it says "This Ipod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the Itunes installer to remove Itunes, the install the 64-bit version of Itunes."
    I'm confused what the problem is. I just DID that!?! What do I need to do differently? Anyone have an idea?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    I’ve got the new version of Itunes (7.6.1) but I still get the error where it tells me to download and install a 64-bit version of Itunes. This is just ridiculous!!! I bought my IPOD touch before Christmas and i still haven’t been able to use it!
    I've uninstalled and installed itunes and all that rubbish about 5-6 times now, i've deleted everything to do with Apple from my machine and also nearly killed my machine because i messed around with the registry (that's my fault :P)
    NOTE: I used IE 64-bit version to download the installer.
    Anyone have a solution to the problem?

  • Laserjet 4240n driver does not work with windows home premium 64 bit

    I recently was given a HP laserjet 4240n by my employer to use in a remote office.  I am using a Windows version 7 home premium 64 bit laptop.  I have tried the HP install wizard - no support for this printer.  I have tried downloading the "correct" driver - but that doesn't work either.
    I assume that there is something wrong but I have spent hours and still haven't been able to figutre out what is wrong and how to fix it!

  • L7680 driver installation wont work with Windows 8.1

    I recently bought a new HP Pavilion laptop and updated to windows 8.1 not long after the purchase.  I tried to install my Officejet Pro L7680 all in one printer today and was unsuccessful on every attempt.  The driver/software will download but when I attempt to install the software I get a message of "cannot find file specified".  I called HP and spoke to a rep who informed me that my printer was too old and wasn't compatible with the Windows 8.1 system.  He said there was no update available for my printer and basically I would have to buy a new printer.  Bad answer!!! 
    The issue is a missing file from the Preload Drivers folder: Msiexec.exe
    Please help me find a way to install my printer

    Hi exumsta
    Yes the anitivirus software could be causing issues.
    I would make sure it is turned off during the installation.
    Here is a url to temporarily disable all the start up programs to see if one of them is causing any issues.

  • 32-bit Oracle ODBC Driver does not work under Windows 64-bit

    We have both Oracle Server 64-bit (10.2.0.3) and Oracle Client 32-bit (10.2.0.1) installed on the same Windows 2003 64-bit server.
    We can create and test 64-bit Oracle ODBC System DSN using 64-bit ODBC Administrator.
    We can also create a 32-bit Oracle ODBC System DSN using 32-bit ODBC Administrator.
    However, the "test connection" does not work:
    Unable to connect
    SQLState=IM003
    Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 998 (Oracle in OraClient10g_home32)
    We need the 32-bit driver due to 32-bit applications acessing the local 64-bit Oracle server.
    How should we accomplish this?
    Thanks.

    I applied 10.2.0.3 path to Oracle Client 32-bit and now the error is different.
    This error message appears 3 times before configuring, creating or testing a System DNS:
    "An unsupported operation was attempted."
    I just click OK 3 times and then can configure, create or test the DSN.
    However the 32-bit application still cannot access Oracle...

  • Which version of firefox works with Windows NT, and how do I download it?

    I need firefox for windows NT

    Well you should have said NT4 in first post and then I would have told you that Firefox 2.0.0.20 was the last to work on Win 98/NT4 while 1.5.012 was the last for Win95 as Fx 2.0.0.* tended to crash or freeze on startup.
    The error means either OLEAUT32.DLL is corrupted or outdated. A fresh install of Windows 95/98/NT4 can give this error. Also the corruption can occur if while installing a software it insists on installing a older version of OLEAUT32.DLL.
    Been four or five years since I really saw anybody post about this error on Firefox startup.

  • Internet Security Suite does not work with Vista 64 bit

    After attempting to use the Chat Help, twice, and spending hours in queue before getting kicked off, I finally called Support to find out why my new Vista computer was not running the Internet Security Suite that I downloaded.  Yes, I found the link to "download to a second computer" and went thru all the steps.  Got lots of positive feedback: little bars were filling in letting me know I was 40%, 72%, 100% done, etc..  Was given a window allowing me to Run or Don't Run the software.  It all seemed to go very well.  However, when the "download and installation" was complete, there was no new software running anywhere on my computer.  Couldn't find it in the Control Panel, the Start menu, or the system tray.  Called Support and spent at least 30 minutes on the phone with a "technician" (and I use that term VERY loosely) who had to have major assistance from a co-worker before he could even start screen-sharing with me and, during the course of our time together, made the following brilliant remarks:
    Upon seeing my desktop wallpaper (which is a lovely photo of some cliffs and a lake - and it came with Vista), he wanted to know what the picture was.  Not where it was taken, but just what it was.  His exact comment was "Does your screen always look like that?".  I had to dig deeper to determine if he was asking about a particular icon or some other computer related concern that he saw (he was "technical support", after all), but he was just asking about the stupid photo.
    He couldn't find the Control Panel in the Start Menu until after trying several times, and then he couldn't navigate to the Programs area very well (I had to give verbal hints as to where it was), and his brilliant comment then was "I really need to go to my mom's house and get on her new laptop and try out Vista."  Can you believe that Verizon has technical support folks who have never used Vista?  It's not like Vista just came on the market yesterday!!
    So, when he finally decided that he was not going to be able to help me, he didn't offer me any other recourse.  He just stated over and over that he was not sure how to solve this issue.  Oh, and this was after I re-downloaded ISS (again, "successfully").  I had to ask if there was someone else there who could possibly help me.  He offered to put me on hold (for the 2nd or 3rd time at this point) to check around.  When he returned to the phone, it was obvious that someone else was operating the mouse in the screen sharing mode because the operator moved confidentially around the screen and went immediately to system properties and saw that I am running Windows 64 bit.  The other operator then told my guy to tell me that ISS only works with Windows 32 bit.  Their final resolution was that I should call billing on Monday and end my subscription.  I think that may be the only good advice I was given that day.
    So, am probably going to renew my trial version of Norton on this new computer and remove ISS from the laptop and put Norton on there as well.  Apparently, they are up to date with this fancy new technology.  At least they probably know about sophisticated and highly technical stuff like desktop wallpaper.

    I have been trying to get somewhere with this Internet Security Suite...and now have come to the conclusion this is not going to work.  Now running Vista 64 bit, and have gotten nothing but the run around to try to complete the downloading of the program.  I've contacted Verizon Tech Support...then tell me that this works with the 64 bit but I need to contact Windows as there is a glitch and they give you the steps to get thru it.  Windows advises me to contact Verizon again as there are no problems with the OS.  Also have contacted Radialpoint and once again nothing...Obviously the Secuirty is not compatible with Vista 64 bit yet, which I just can't believe like you said...it's not like it was just yesterday this OS came out.  My frusteration comes from nobody steps up to take any responsibility as to what the problem is.  If it is not compatible yet then say so and not waste my whole weekend trying to get a straight answer.  I have other computers that I am currently using the service on and do like the program, but as for my Vista 64 bit looks like I may go to Macafee for protection.  It just amazes me as big as Verizon is and as popular this Vista has become they are not on the ball in keeping up with technology.
