Why does it keep saying my printer is offline???rrrrrrr

why does it keep saying my printer is offline??/rrrr
Just bought this tonight ,.i am very agrevated about ready to take it back tommorow
I am working off of my laptop.its working on windows Xp i think.
The printer is th HP  Photosmart D110 series.i was concerned i would have trouble with the wireless part of it.
The man at office depot said i could work it as a regular printer if i couldnt figure out wireless. Well, it didnt come with the cable to hook it from printer to laptop.rrrr

So how is the printer set up?  Is it wireless or USB?  If USB you will need a cable, purchased seperately.  It is a standard A/B USB cable widely available inexpensively.  (The $1 cables form the dollar store work fine....

    Have you tried updating via iTunes? I find that way's more reliable - I've never had any problems with updating that way.

  • Why does it keep saying your trial period has ended when I have bought Photoshop Elements 12

    Why does it keep saying your trial period has ended when I have bought the product and registered it with you?

    In addition to activating, you also need to sign in with your Adobe ID. Have you done that as well?

  • Why does FaceTime keep saying "connection lost" when we both have full bars on our wifi?

    Why does FaceTime keep saying "connection lost" when we both have full bars on our wifi? My friend in Texas has tried to call my via FaceTime but for some reason, every time she does, it keeps saying "connection lost" when we both have full bars on our wifi. Keep in mind, I am from Nebraska so we have the same time zone and I have an iPod 4 while she has a iPhone of some sort but that shouldn't matter because I am still able to FaceTime my friend in California, which is two hours behind me. So, I guess I just want to know why I cannot reach my friend in Texas. Please, someone help me!

    Apple has released a document which is reported to address the recent FaceTime issue.

    Can you connect to a wifi source on the device? Enable wifi in settings on the device itself. If you don't have wifi at home, there may be a local hotspot you can use for this.
    The reason this happens is carriers don't want people downloading huge files that would slow their network as well as eat up your data plan.

  • Why does it keep saying connect to itunes

    i cannot use most of my apps as it keeps saying connect to itunes to get push notifications. my notifications are of and i have connected to itunes but t still says that and nothing else happens. how can i stop this?

    Well you're just a problem there John! 
    1.  If you already downloaded and paid for a game, you can't be charged for it again, so you can delete it from your iPad and redownload it.  OR
    2.  Connect your iPad to your computer via USB and in iTunes, sync your iPad, then open it by clicking on it from the left side of your screen.  Once open, click on the apps button above and make sure you sync the game over.
    Again, once you've paid for something you can't be charged again.......you'll get this sorted.

  • Why does itunes keep saying I don't have enough memory on my windows 8.1

    When I am trying to download new songs, import a CD or trying to watch a TV segment on I tunes on my Samsung Laptop computer for Windows 8.1 and I keep getting messages saying I don't have enough memory and I also keep receiving messages that I'm not connected to the internet when I am. I have unplugged and replugged my connection but it keeps happening, I have checked for updates but don't need to, and have tried to troubleshoot it. When I went on line I kept being told this is an apple or i tunes problem. Please help

    Do you back up to iCloud?  I'm assuming so since you asked about purchasing more storage.
    Check Settings > General > Usage on your iPhone and see if you really need everything you're keeping there.

  • Photoshop elements 9. Why does it keep saying "editor busy"?

    Every time I try to edit a photo in PSE 9 it says unable to complete command. Editor busy. I don't know what it's busy doing but how do I correct this problem?

    Thanks for the info.  Still need these:
    #2:  Go to Help...About Photoshop Elements.
    #3:  Just give us a complete list of the steps, one by one, of what you're doing.  (I can't see your computer screen too well from here. )  Starting with what program you're opening and how you're opening it.
    If I'm understanding your previous comments correctly, I'm not sure whether you're running into the bug discussed in the other posts.

  • Why does Safari keep saying "it can't connect to the server" every time I try to access any sites?

    I have the latest safari update for os x, which was working perfectly fine up until 3 days ago. Everytime I would try to access any site, safari would tell me it couldn't connect to the server, and I would have to refresh the page at least 5-10 times until I can access the site. I checked my internet, and it seems to be running perfectly. I also tried using Chrome and it had no problems accessing sites, too, so I know it's not my internet. :/
    Is anyone else having the same problems?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.
