When I click on the icon for HP Photosmart 5520, nothing comes up

When I click on my HP Photosmart icon, on my home screen, nothing happens. I can print in programs and by clicking cntrl-p and I can copy from the printer but i have no way to scan to or from. I have ran HP print and scan doc but still no software pops up when I click on the HP icon

@texrjoe, Welcome to the Community
I read your post about the issues you have been having with opening up the HP software on your computer, and to me seems like there could be a driver issue.
I would recommend completely Uninstalling the Printer Software from the Control Panel and restarting the PC afterwards to finish the uninstall. Next, click the link below to download the printers Full Feature Driver that will also include the scanning software and from there you should be able to open it from your desktop and scan documents or photos.

Good luck, let me know the results

  • Firefox stopped working when I click in the icon. Just a small window comes up but will not come up. When I click on the small window it just goes away.p

    This is a brand new computer.
    I took the computer to the tech and when he hooked it up everything worked fine. However, when I took it back home the same problem existed.
    I tried Chrome and it works OK.

    Hi,
    Check in Add-ons to see if you have any toolbars installed:
    [[Uninstalling add-ons|Uninstalling add-ons]]
    Because the Ask Toolbar (a custom version I think) is sometimes installed (or offered to be installed) with other programs, such as Foxit Reader.

  • I have used Firefox for over a year. For some reason it quit working and I can't seem to fix it. I uninstalled and reinstalled the download and it's still not working. When I click on the icon it says unable to connect.

    Yes, if you repurchase it you may lose your progress. The exception would be a game that stored all your progress on a server under your ID
    If you want to retain your progress you have two choices:
    1. Don't apply the update.
    2. Use your fathers account password to update the game.

    You're very welcome!
    I meant holding the "option" (or "alt") key on your keyboard as you click the Outlook icon on the Dock, and continuing to hold it until you see the Microsoft Database Utility come up. Alternatively, you can open the utility by navigating to Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office and then double-clicking the Microsoft Database Utility app.
    When you rebuild your database using that program, a backup copy of your original database (containing your account info, contacts, mail, calendars, etc) will be created. As a security precaution, you should also ensure you have a backup of your database (which you can find by going to Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/ and copying the contents of that folder onto an external drive).

  • For the last 10 days I have been unable to open the Mail account on my eMac (MacOS10.4.11). When I click on the icon in the Dock the only option I get is "Force quit" and the main Mail bar will not open any  choice. Any ideas?

    You can setup Mail for iCloud on the eMac.
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 993
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 587
    • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)

  • When I open Thunderbird, I can not see the inbox window. When I click on the icon in my dock (Mac) it's checked like it's open but I can't see it.

    This just started a couple of days ago, so not sure what I did. I also have to Force Quit to get Thunderbird to quit. When I click on the icon in the dock after it starts up the menu bar at the top is greyed out and it goes to Firefox not Thunderbird. Thanks for any help.

    Hi beachy85!
    When you remove iTunes, your music on your computer (and your iPod, too) will be saved.
    Let's try this:
    Go to "Add or remove programs" in Control Panel.
    Find iTunes and QuickTime from this list, and remove them both.
    Then, download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility to remove the remainging installation files.
    For information on the WICU, see this:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Then, go to this page, and QuickTime (get the Standalone version, not the one that includes iTunes in the pack):
    QuickTime download
    Then, install iTunes from this page here:
    Download iTunes - 7.1.1.5
    After you've done that, restart your computer.
    Now, try opening iTunes again. Do you still get that error message, or not?

    The key to all this is to click on/select/highlight the Album that you have created in Local Albums.
    Then make sure that the Sort By: (in the row below the highlighted "Media" header is set for Album Order.
    You should see a number at the top left of each of thumbnails.
    Then, click on the thumbnail that you want to move, hold down the click, and drag the thumbnail to the wanted new location
    in the line up of thumbnails.
    Often I had to press down hard on the drag.
    Please let us know if that worked for you.
    Also, in Edit Menu/Preferences/Keyword Tags and Albums/Enable Manual Sorting Options, I set all for manual.

  • I downloaded the numbers app but when I click on the icon it won't open on my iMac.

    I downloaded the numbers app on my imac and it completed the download, but now when I click on the Icon it wont open.  What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks for the help.

    What a mess !
    The app delivered for iOS can't run under OSX on a mac.
    The app delivered for OSX on a mac can't run under iOS on iPhone or iPad.
    They are different products.
    I repeat that to run Numbers on you iMac you must buy Numbers for OSX delivered on Mac App Store or, if you are running an old operating system (older than 10.6.6) you may download the iWork's 30 days free trial version, install it, update it as iWork 9.0.4 and buy a registration code thru Apple Store.

  • I reset Firefox. Now when I click on the icon to open Firefox my computer asks me if I want to let Firefox make changes to my computer.

    I reset Firefox. Now when I click on the icon to open Firefox my computer asks me if I want to let Firefox make changes to my computer.
    I have read that I should do a clean reinstall. Will I loose all of my open tabs, bookmarks, history etc?
    Is there another way to fix the problem other than a reinstall. this would have to be my last resort!

    A possible cause of this error is that Firefox is set to run as Administrator.
    Check that Firefox isn't set to run as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
    Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
    * Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
    * "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected
    Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).

    Help.

    Then the next step would be to restore your phone.  My advice is that prior to restoring you import your photos and videos to your computer and back up your contacts (by syncing them with iCloud or to a supported program on your computer using iTunes) as a number of users report losing these when restoring their device.
