Printer can't be found on the network

The printer has been working fine for months, and today it can't be accessed at its assigned IP address. No computer can print to it or find it, even when manually entering the IP address, although the printer is connected (it scans to a network folder and the self-diagnostic is OK for both Wireless and Network).
Any suggestion most welcome.
Many thanks,
Francois

Hi Francois,
Try rebooting your router by unplugging its power for several seconds, then allow it a minute or two to start.
Reboot the printer as well and check for any difference.
If that doesn't help click the network icon on the printer, tap settings and select Restore Newtork Defaults, then try reboot any of the PCs and try printing again.
Please let me know if that helps,
Otherwise let me know the exact IP address of the printer.

Can't print to my HP D2460 over the network anymore, after upgrade to SL.

Hi,
I upgraded to Snow Leopard today. Now I can't print to my HP D2460 Deskjet printer anymore. The printer is shared from my Windows XP system via SMB. When I try to print I see the following message in the print queue on the Windows XP system: "Remote Downlevel Document - Error printing".
I have updated the print drivers at both ends and still can't get it to work.
If I connect the printer to a USB port on my MacBook Pro, it prints fine. It's only the network/SMB printing that seems to be broken.
Has anyone else had this problem? How can I fix it?
Cheers.
Gibbo

Try downloading the driver here.

How do I add a printer connected to another iMac on the network to my printer list?

How do I add an Epson printer connected to an iMac on the network to the printer list on my MacBook Pro? I cannot get it to show up in the list for printers to add.

That only works if the printer is itself a network printer. You can't do it if it is directly connected to another computer on the network unless it is configured to be a Shared Printer on the other computer.

My iPad2 "could not be found on the network" and won't sync

Please Help!
My iPad 2 won't sync and doesn't seem to be "seen" by my PC.
I have rebooted, restored and reset the iPad, and installed latest ios.
PC is running Windows 8 with latest iTunes whic has been re-installed.
The USB port and cable work fine - I don't have the the same problem with my iPhone 4S.
The iPad logo comes up in iTunes as a device, and I get the "pinging" noise when connecting. The iPad details come up in iTunes, but I can't back up or connect or do anything witht it.
It won't sync and I get error messages:"iTunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services"
and in one of my explorations
"iPad could not be found on the network"
Sometimes when the Ipad is connected iTunes will be ok for a short time, then go into "not responding"
When I try Windows Explorer the iPad does not show in the "Removable Storage" section like it used to, and like my iPhone still does.
In Device Manager, Apple iPad Properties, I get the message "This device cannot start (Code 10)". On line searchinh suggests this could be a driver problem however when checking for drivers I got the message saying my drivers were up to date.
Please HELPPPPPP!!
Thanks

It's now sorted - a driver problem
I found this tip in another thread. Thanks LexLester

Re: How to transfer pictures from iPad to PC? 06-Dec-2013 09:51 (in response to amershiraz)
When you are connecting your iPad with your PC, go to Control Panel, click 'view devices and printers' under Hardware and Sound. Your iPad device should be shown in there even it is not showing in My Computer. See whether there's troubleshoot for Apple iPad. Then troubleshoot it. It should be the device driver which is not functioning or being disabled or not up to date. You should be able to find your iPad under the Portable Devices in My Computer after the troubleshooting.

NO LONGER ABLE TO UPLOAD "NO CONFIGURED COMPUTER FOUND ON THE NETWORK" ????

I am stumped because I have uploaded pictures for a long time with no trouble to my computer and it doesn't matter what program software I use whether its Picasa or I photo or any other I assume, I get this message:
"no configured computer found on the network"
and if I use and flash drive it says:
"device selected is not active."
No matter what method I use on my MAC Tiger and no matter what program whether its Picasa or Iphoto and where i try to load them from whether its a camera or a card reader or through the slot on my printer, i keep getting the message "no configured computer found on the network" and if I use and flash drive it says device selected is not active.
I don't get it. I've uploaded pictures all kinds of times to my computer without this trouble. Where do i need to look, I assume at the computer because it doesn't matter which method I use to load them the computer doesn't work.
software, computer, hardware, what????

I'm sorry, I apologize, I left a follow-up here when I realized it was DUH not connected with my cable? Like what an idiot. I don't have enough ports and so I had unplugged it.
I know I left a followup but maybe it wasn't saved. Again, sorry. Thanks for your response.

Urazurrutia which operating system are you using? I would recommend removing and reinstalling Photoshop to restore the application. What specific version of Photoshop are you facing difficulties with?

I currently have a D-Link DI-604 broadband router with windows computers. How can I add wifi to the network for use with ipad? Can I use AirPort Express?

I currently have a D-Link DI-604 broadband router with windows computers. How can I add wifi to the network for use with ipad? Can I use AirPort Express?

Yes. You can directly connect an 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) using an Ethernet cable. The AXn would then just need to be configured as a bridge to allow the D-Link to continue to provide both NAT & DHCP services for all network clients connected to either router.
In this configuration, the AXn would broadcast a wireless network for your wireless network clients to connect to.

The ipod could not be sync because the ipod could not be found on the network

I plugged my ipod touch (4 gen) into my computer to sync and charge and itunes will not sync it any more. I the the error: the ipod could not be sync because the ipod could not be found on the network. It says it backed up on 11/4/13 which was just 5 days ago, but it won't let me back up or restore now at this point. It will charge the battery but that is all. Anyone know how to correct this problem?

Are yo set up to sync via USB vice wifi?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reboot the computer
- Try another USB port and cable
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

The server could not be found on the network ORA-12154

Hi All,
I have problem with one application. She run with Oracle DB. I installed Win2008R2 x64 and Oracle DB 32bit on the same server. I tried connect to DB via Oracle SQL Developer and SQL Plus and both run without problem, but when I insert the same parameters into application OpenText Content Server 10, then I see this Error:
Content Server Error:
[Error: The server could not be found on the network. ----> Error stack ----> 1) E675414020:The server could not be found on the network.:ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified ]
This application need only 3 parameters (System User Name, password and service name). I compare it with ORA files (listener, sqlnet and tnsnames) and I think that all is right. Here are this three files
listener:
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = WIN-R0OEE0OAE5Z)(PORT = 1521))
sqlnet:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES)
tnsnames
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = WIN-R0OEE0OAE5Z)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
Do you have any idea where is problem?
Thank you
Vaclav

VaclavYou listener has nothing to do with this error. Your request for a connection never left the client machine.

How many second can Oracle TNS endure on the network unstability?

Hi there,
Recently the network at our office is very unstable. So the problem between WAS server(WAS1, WAS2) and Oracle DB server(DB).
Sometimes the connection from WAS server to DB server is broken suddenly. In other case the connection is still alive after network unstability.
Is there any TIMEOUT to achieve the disconnection? How many second can Oracle TNS endure on the network unstability?
Best regards,

Hi,
Try setting SQLNET.OUTBOUND_CONNECT_TIMEOUT in your SQLNET.ORA file to a higher value.
