Printer cannot connect to the server when "checking for update". Can't setup eprint.

I have an Officejet 4620 All-in-one working wireless. It prints, scans and sends and receives faxes well. After setting up a fixed IP address, I started to get this problem. I test the wireless connection pressing the wireless button and report says everthing's fine. I'm using Windows 7 64 bit SP1.
This is how I configured IPv4:
IP Address 10.0.0.250
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway 10.0.0.67
Preferred DNS Address 10.0.0.67
Alternate DNS Address
WINS Server 0.0.0.0
Secondary WINS Server 0.0.0.0

doghaus,
Change your preferred DNS server to 8.8.8.8 and your alternate to 8.8.4.4.
Let me know if that works for you.

Cannot connect to the server.
Check the Internet connection and try again. Or contact your system administrator or the person who set up the printer.
If your network requires a proxy server address to connect to Internet, click Enter Proxy or check your browser settings.
The printer is connected to the network with proper DNS I am the adminastrator

The steps below typically resolve the issue you’re experiencing:
1. Unplug the power cord from the back of the printer.
2. Unplug the power cord from the back of your router (and modem, if separate from the router).
3. Wait 20 seconds, then plug the router (and modem, if applicable) back in.
4. Wait 30 seconds, then plug the printer back in and power it on.
5. Press the ePrint button on the printer's front panel, and it should try to connect to Web Services again.
Those steps usually resolve the issue, but if it still occurs you can try setting static network info for the printer (which sometimes helps to stabilize the printer's ability to get outside of your network, to the internet):
1. Press the network icon at the top of the printer's screen and note the IP address.
2. Enter the IP address into the address bar of a web browser on a computer and press enter or click the browser's go button.
3. The printer status page should be opened. Click on Network at the top.
4. Select Proxy Settings.
Note: If you are prompted for a redirect, select OK. If you receive a certificate warning, select the option that lets you continue anyway.
If you receive a Internal System Error, refresh the page until it loads the proxy settings.
5. Verify that all fields are blank. If they are not, clear them and make sure the Proxy Server requires authentication is unchecked and click apply. You should get a success message.
6. Click on IPv4 under the correct connection (wired or wireless) on the left.
Note: If you only see IP Address Configuration and DNS Address Configuration with a yellow note, refresh the page until it loads completely.
8. Leave the IP Address Configuration as Automatic IP.
9. Change DNS Address Configuration to Manual DNS server.
10. Enter 8.8.8.8 for the Manual Preferred DNS Server and 8.8.4.4 for the Manual Alternate DNS Server.
11. Click Apply and you should get a success message.
12. Power off the printer for 30 seconds and then turn it back on to force the new settings to take effect.

This is Apple's starting point/troubleshooting web site for iTunes Store connection issues. It has links to more advanced troublehooting as well.
Can't connect to iTunes Store
Have you tried rebooting your router - unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again - or temporarily disabling your firewall or anti virus software?
Restart or reset the iPad?
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Printer cannot connect to the server

I am going bonkers! For no reason that I can fathom my printer does not connect to the server (i.e. my PC). I have downloaded the latest drivers. I have uninstalled and re-installed. I have run the HP Doctor. The printer finds my router ok and has been set up correctly. The same problem exists with my laptop. I have windows 8.1 and HP Officejet 6600. I am at my wits end. It has worked and nothing has changed. I have run a strict anti-virus checker too. Does anyone out there have a clue as to what is going on? I will be so grateful for your help. Oh yes when I logged on to the HP site and live chat I was told my printer was out of warranty - it is only a month old! So no help there.

Not connected to Internet message when checking for updates

When I use the check for updates button in Itunes, i get the message that my computer is not connected to the internet. It is
This is very very annoying and I can't download the latest software update (2.1)
I have i tunes 8 and can access the app store ok
Any suggestions please?
Come on Apple - sort this out

Do you have any information about iTunes and iPhone software versions, whether you're running Microsoft'Anything' or Apple'Anything' as your operating system, your hardware platform and USB version, to name but a few missing details?
Come on now: "Come on Apple - sort this out!!!" might be on a wish-list somewhere, but which version 'crystal-ball' do you suggest is used to assist?
It is very very annoying, you're right, all round, but it is much easier to provide assistance and helpful suggestions if the combinations surrounding one specific area of the Universe that is affected can be minimised.....

HP Photosmart 5510 B111a - Cannot connect to the server

My printer is not printing when I email [id] @ hpeprint.com, even though I get the "ePrint Job Received" email, so I investigated it further.
It's on the network because I can access the web page like normal.
Here's what I'm greeted with.
There's a red cross next to the "ePrint", but the network has a green tick. Odd.
I check the "web services" tab...
Again, it shows a red cross and says "fix this".
I click "fix this", which after a little while displays this.
The error says:
Cannot connect to the server.
Check the Internet connection and try again. Or contact your system administrator or the person who set up the printer.
If your network requires a proxy server address to connect to Internet, click Enter Proxy or check your browser settings.
I know my connection is working as it should be.
I believe the fault lies in the printer, please can you advise further.
Thanks.

I discovered the problem.
I recall the printer had advised me some weeks ago to automatically set a manual IP.
When this was done it seems to turn off DNS settings so it cannot resolve any hostnames and will not access any services even though it is connected to the network.
I restored the IP back to automatic, which allowed me to also set DNS to automatically.
It seems that if you set a manual IP address on the printer, you cannot set the DNS.
Odd behaviour.

The restor pocess did not succeed because your computer cannot connect to the server - Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials Experience

Hi all
I've been running Windows Server 2012 R2 with the Essentials Experience in test for a Windows 8.1 client environment, on an HP ProLiant MicroServer N54L. Overall I've found the Essential Experience set-up over WHS2011 and WHSv1 okay; still looking to extract
any real value over the former versions.
This box has been up and running for a few months now, with client backups of a Win 8.1 box scheduled and running successfully every day. However when trying to conduct any file restores from the backups, to the client, I receive an error dialog once I go
through motions from the Dashboard:
On the 'Devices' tab, right-click the appropriate client and select 'Restore files or folders for the computer'
'Restore Files of Folders' dialog pops up, asking me to 'Choose a backup' from the list of all the backups that have run
Select any one in the list - have tried numerous backups; automatic, manual, etc. same result every time
Brings up the dialog to 'Choose a volume', choose either C: or D: partitions of the same fixed drive - again, no difference which one I choose, the outcome is the same
'Opening the volume' dialog starts, with progress bar, runs to about 4% complete the pops up the dialog 'The restore process did not succeed'. Full error in the dialog, "The restore process did not succeed because your computer cannot connect to the
server. Make sure that the computer is connected to the networkm and then try again
If my computer cannot connect to the server - how can I get that far? How can I open the dashboard, select a client, select from a list of backups, select a volume to restore, etc. What is going on here?

Hi,
Please check if a "host" entry for the server is added to the client. For more detailed information, please refer to the threads below:

Cannot connect to abap server, please check your abap server connection

Installed new NW BPC 7.5 system on windows 2008 server but get the error as follows
when logon to BPC server:
"Cannot connect to abap server, please check your abap server connection".
"define system user group tab" is inactive in server manager also.
Server Diagnostic errors for SAP Server Connection:
Database Connection
Status Connection Error
as per note 1385864 but this note has not helped get past this status with installation.
User Type value is either set to Communication Data for all three users (BPC_ADMIN, BPC_SYSADMIN, BPC_USER).
and these accounts are not locked.
Any ideas for these errors?
Regards,
Aidan

Hi Aidan,
"Your logon id (domain\user) does not have SystemAdmin rights; some functionality
is disabled."
This is caused by the fact that the user you are logged in as isn't in the UJA_SVR_DEFAULT table, the SYSADMIN field needs to have a value that contains your user id (i.e. DOMAIN\USER) . You can set this up with the UJA3_WRITE_SYS_USERS program.
"When I try to install APPshell the following errors occur:
@8O@ UJA_DATA_CHECK E 006 Application PLANNING's multiprovider /CPMB/ATMKOOE not exist in BW
@8O@ UJS_EXCEPTION E 003 Errors occured during "after import" method call during activation"
Aidan, sounds like something went terribly wrong during your activation process. Do this, Clean the appset with the UJS_ACTIVATE_CONTENT program and make sure that everything is completely deleted. Make sure that there is a lot of memory available for the activation and try it again.
It should work.
Hopefully this helps you.
Cheers, Scott

Contribute Cannot Connect to the Server

I am using a windows XP Pro computer, and have been using Contribute CS3 for over a year. About 3 weeks ago, I started getting the message, when I tried to connect to our website, which is hosted by a 3rd party, I got the following message: Contribute Cannot connect to the server. Please check your connection information of contact your administrator. Our connection type is SFTP.
I could not connect on my work pc, so I installed Contribute CS4 on my home computer and could not connect either. I also got our website developer to try and connect, and they could no longer connect as well. As our website host has assured us that no changes have been made on their system, I did a fresh install of a trial Contribute CS4 on a brand new computer (XP Pro) and this time was successful at making a connection.
If anyone has any ideas why the other 3 computers could not connect to the website, that would be appreciated.
Thanks

I'm having the very same issue. Very frustrating. Support had me uninstall and reinstall. That did not wor
k, Then they had me uninstall and reinstall as a trial. That did not work. Very umimpressed with Adobe
products and support.
Anyone have a solution to this issue. I'm at the end of my rope.

Solution to iCloud "cannot connect to the server" upgrade issue

I have just switched my iPhone 4s to a new carrier. (iOS 7.0.4)
Once the previous carrier (finally) unlocked its activation grip, all went well through restoring the phone. One issue remained:
iCloud wanted me to "agree to new terms of service" and would not allow me to do anything else with it. But when I tapped the button to "read the terms of service" the dialogue "Cannot connect to the server" popped up.
The solution turned out to be relatively painless:
Make sure you have backed up any Photo Streams that are present on your iPhone. (I use Aperture for this.)
At the bottom of the iCloud settings screen (Settings->iCloud) tap the "Delete Account" button. You will be warned that photos, documents, etc., will be deleted from your iPhone. As long as you are confident of your backups, tap "Delete" in the warning dialogue.
If you have "Find My iPhone" enabled, you will need to enter your Apple ID and password to turn it off. This is the only way to gain access to this setting that I could find.
Cold-boot your iPhone (Power + Home). I suppose you don't HAVE to do this, but seemed like A Good Thing.
Return to the iCloud settings screen and turn iCloud back on. Enter your Apple ID and password. Double-check that "Find My iPhone" is enabled, if desired.
You will be asked to allow iCloud to merge documents, contacts, and so on with the information on your iPhone. Do this as desired. (I do not yet use iCloud for most of this.) Your Photo Stream will eventually show up again by itself.
Hope this helps, and I'm all ears if there is an easier and potentially safer solution!
Matt

I have the same problem. Did you solve it already?
