When I turn off the printer my computer locks up. HP Desktop.Photosmart D7360, Windows 7

When I turn off my printer the computer locks up.  HP Desktop computer.  Windows 7.  Photosmart D7360.
I have reinstalled the drivers.
This question was solved.

Have you tried a different usb cable? It could be that the usb cable is grounding out which could be a short in the usb cable, or the port on the printer. Although it is also possible that it is the USB controller on your computer's motherboard so if trying a different cable doesn't fix it try it with another computer if at all possible. If the other computer doesn't have any problems then it is the HP desktop. At that point you're out of my realm of expertise friend . (In other words if this doesn't work, try your luck on the desktop forums or by calling 1-800-474-6836)
Hope this helps!

  • My new ipod nano does not  work when you turn off the computer

    I bought a new iPod but I have a problem when you turn off the computer does not work. Shows that the battery is full and it was lightning. Ipod only works while connected to your computer. What should I do

    Hello pepi95,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    If you just bought the nano, why not bring it back for a replacement or your money back? It's definitely a defective iPod. Not much else for options here. Sorry.

  • HT4293 I have an Apple monitor model A1316 is using for Windows computer, but I could not adjust the brightness. The monitor is not bright enough when I turned off the lights in my room.

    Have you plugged the USB cable into the computer also as the brightness is controlled over USB. If this does not work, you would need the Apple Display Driver for the version of Windows that you are using. The display driver is part of BootCamp software that you may be able to find online

  • So, CAN I turn off the printer's color management? Pixma Pro-100.

    So, I am trying to turn off the color management function for the Pro-100...
    On my Windows desktop, I use Photoshop to print with Canson Rag 210, color profile installed, allow photoshop to manage colors and print a beautiful, perfect print with the Mark 9000. Now, I have the Pixma Pro-100 and using the exact same settings, I print wirelessly with my laptop, and I get these dark, red/orange hued prints that are atrocious.
    I should mention the same exact photograph printed between setups ALWAYS prints better with the Mark 9000 and my desktop. However, when using my laptop and the Mark 9000... Crap. Laptop and Pixma Pro-100... Crap. What is my MAC doing that my desktop is not?! How can identical settings print such drastic results? Photoshop does warn me (newer version on my MAC vs. Windows) to turn off the printer's color management in the printer's settings, but I do not see that option. Maybe I'm missing it? How do I do that? I'm thinking it may help!

    Have you tried printing from the MacBook using Canon Print Studio Pro or letting printer manage colors? I know this doesn't specifically answer your question, but PSP is designed to handle the PS/printer interface.
    Download PSP 1.3.5 from the Canon support site.

  • Documents uploaded to icloud disappear when I turn off the IPAD

    documents uploaded to icloud disappear when I turn off the IPAD,I can see the documents only when icloud is open on the PC

    When you turn off any device, it will disconnect from the internet. My sense is that you're not quite explaining what's happening. Do you mean that when you turn it back on again it doesn't automatically reconnect? Do you mean the if it just goes to sleep (as opposed to being powered off) that it switches from WiFi to cellular? Or are you saying that you think that when you turn off the iPad, the router disconnects?
    If you're trying to say that the iPad disconnects from WiFi when asleep and switches to cellular, the solution is to keep it plugged into a power source.
    Best of luck.

  • When you turn on the ipad2 it does not start up properly.  The rotating disk that happens when you turn off the ipad appears after the apple logo comes up

    When you turn on the ipad2 it does not start up properly.  The rotating disk that happens when you turn off the ipad appears after the apple logo comes up during start-up and stays there for ten minutes.  Then, the ipad will start up properly.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Bought an iPod nano for use in an external source to the unit of the BMW. It works, but don't remember the place when you turn off the power and every time begins to play the playlist first.

    Bought an iPod nano for use in an external source to the unit of the BMW. It works, but don't remember the place when you turn off the power and every time begins to play the playlist first.

    Thanks iPod Whisperer--
    I do realize that the nano will resume where I left off in my audiobook if I reload the file that was last playing.
    What I was hoping is that the 6g nano would work like my previous iPods and default to the last file played the next time played after Iused sleep mode instead of going to some random song on the iPod.
    Since I usually have a lot of audiobooks on my iPod--and most of those have 10-15 files in them, it's a pain to have to navigate to the correct file (and try to remember which of the 10-15 files I was last playing). On all my other iPods I could simply hit play and it would start up in the audiobook right where it left off.
    Note--this only happens if I use the sleep timer to turn off the iPod. If I pause the book myself, when I turn the iPod back on it'll "remember" what file it was playing.
    Hope this makes sense.

  • Why won't my ipod pause when I turn off the ignition in my car? It used to.

    Why won't my ipod pause when I turn off the ignition in my car? It used to.

    How is the iPod connected to your car stereo?, (via earphone jack or iPod dock connector)
    By "pause" you mean that now it is playing thru your car stereo, while previously, it stopped playing thru your car stereo, when you switch off the ignition?
    Anyway, I don't think it is an iPod problem, but you can try the
    iPod Hard Reset -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON.
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    refer to this Apple supprt Article on the 5Rs
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
    This reset wont delete any of your songs, just put all the settings back to when you first took it out of the box.

  • Why do i need to turn off the printer and restart it every so often to get it connected and ready?

    E-print works great when it's connected but it keeps disconnecting and I need to re-start the printer in order to print what I've sent it from my cell phone. How can I fix this?

    Hello bobdoss63,
    In that case I suggest you to print HP Network Configuration Page and make a note of the Printer IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway as printed in the page.
    Next open Internet Explorer browser and type the printer IP in the address bar and press Enter key. This will open printer information web page also known as EWS (Embedded Web Server) page. Here click on Network. If the printer is in Wireless, select Wireless and one of the settings displayed talks about Manual IP configuration.
    At this setting select Manual IP and enter the Printer IP, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway. Then select Manual DNS and enter the following addresses
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    Save the settings and turn OFF and turn ON the printer. Try re-enabling the webservices and check the result,

  • Airplay streaming stops when you turn off the iPad screen

    Hi All,
    If you are streaming something from your iPad using Airplay, and you hit the button to turn off the iPad screen, it seems that the streaming stops...
    Is there any way to fix that?  I mean, if you are watching a long video, for example, you don't want your iPad to remain on the whole time.
    Any advice?
    - Thanx
    - Jon

    Jon-
    You are saying the AirPlay App does not work when the iPad goes to sleep.  Other Apps do, including the Music App, so you might expect AirPlay to work as well.
    Another limit may be the timer setting at Settings-General-Auto Lock.  Mine is set to 5 Minutes by default.  You may need to set yours to Never, to keep the iPad from sleeping while streaming.
    I suggest you provide feedback to Apple at <iPad Feedback>.

  • I get a scanner failure when i turn on the printer? product name:

    I get a scanner failure when I turn on my printer.  I scanned a picture a week ago and had no trouble with the device, now it is not working

    This is a known bug, and has been for years. It occurs when Firefox is your default browser and some glitch (or program) changes that default. Thankfully, there's a fairly easy fix, though it does involve monkeying around in the Registry.
    (Note: These instructions apply to Windows Vista and 7 only.)
    1. Click Start, type regedit, and then press Enter.
    2. Navigate to the following entry: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxURL\shell\open\ddeexec
    3. In the center pane, double-click the Default entry, then remove whatever value is there (it'll probably be a weird string of numbers and commas).
    4. Click OK, then exit Regedit.
    5. If Outlook and/or Firefox are open, close them, then restart them.

    I am using windows 7 pro this issue has drove me crazy for some time, now finally it's fixed by doing the exact same steps as above, hope this works for everybody that is having this problem. I just had to share this with my fellow firefox users. :)

  • IPHONE photos erased when you turn off the phone

    I have a new IPHONE 3G phone .I can take pictures with the phone which are fine until I turn off the phone. When I turn it on again the photos taken with the IPHONE have disappeared.

    The red arrow on the screen when you hold the top button down for a 3-5 seconds is the Power Off slider, which you move across the screen with your finger. Just pushing the top button momentarily puts the phone to sleep. Either way, the photo should be saved. If the photo is not saved to Photos>Camera Roll (and you are sure you are looking at Camera Roll and not another Photo Album), then you must have a corruption somewhere. If the Restore did not work, the only other option besides taking the phone in to Apple is to do another Restore and don't put anything back in until you try the Camera function, just to rule out the possibility that you are reloading a corruption. I've seen no other posts here about this, but it might be worthwhile to do a search and see.
