• Sharing printers has stopped working for me. MacBook Air "think" printer is not connected.

  Sharing printers has stopped working for me. I have an Epson Stylus Photo R340 connected by USB to my Mac Mini end of 2012, and until recently, my MacBook Air has been able to print to it. Now, he 'thinks' the printer is not connected. Computers are on WiFi. Both computers have an OS X 10.11.5 now and the latest driver of Epson printer. Printer sharing is enabled in preferences, sharing, and "Share this printer on the network" is checked in the preferences, printers and Scanners. I went through the hoops to remove the printer and add it again on the Mini and the MacBook Air.

  Of course, the Mini prints very well via USB. Someone has an idea (that I have not already tried) how to get the sharing of printers to work again?

  Other sharing services work, such as the file and screen sharing?

  Anyone know what could be wrong with this new laptop?
  I use the wireless to enter IE7 and type your message.

  My husband and I are elderly and not too familiar with computers or computer language so if anyone has an answer, please make it simple enough for us to understand.

  Hello Bob

  I agree with Kody and I think also there is a software problem or the WIFI network is not properly enabled. I use the European model of laptop, but I don't think that there is some difference of laptop models to the United States.

  If you want to use the WLAN, it must be enabled correctly. At first make sure that the WLAN switch is placed in position ON. The WLAN led should be on. After doing this using FN + F8 key combination to activate the wireless network card. When you press the FN key and keep down. Maps flash in high must be indicated. Always keep the button FN, but press F8 and select Wi - Fi ON.

  So now the wireless network card must be activated, and you should also be able to connect to your WLAN.
  If the problem persists, you can try to roll back the OS to an earlier time (when the network WIFI works well). To do this, you must start System Restore tool. Choose different restore point and to the next day when you think about the WIFI worked well.

  Sorry, but for now I have a better idea because I don't want to confuse you more than necessary.

  Have a good day and I hope that WIFI works well again.

• Satellite C665 - Ethernet adapter has stopped working

  Hello
  A few weeks ago, I noticed that the ethernet adapter has stopped working. It has disappeared from the Device Manager, and I can only access internet by wifi.

  When I turn off wifi and connect the ethernet cable (which connects to the modem) nothing works.
  I tried to restore the windows settings, but that didn't work.

  Can someone help me?

  It is possible that the LAN module is defective.
  All you can do now is to check and install the original recovery image and check the functionality with the factory settings. If the problem persists it is definitely hardware problem.

  I think that it is not worth to fix it if you can continue to work with WLAN connectivity.
  What do you think of this?

  3 Toshiba Flashcards started popping up with an error saying they have stopped working - are there flashcards in this machine at all?

  4 then, Control Panel / programs and features / turn Windows features on / off - whatever it is, I would like to add, it ends with an error - "an error occurred when installing the sw.

  5. in addition, tried to upgrade to the latest Toshiba Bluetooth stack. The installation is never - ending crashes

  6. access the hard disk is really slow. Do not know why. Any idea?

  In the old notebooks from Toshiba, I would setup just a package of COMMON MODULE, but I can't find something like this for Vista.

  Any help on this appreciated. Please, send them to [email protected], too.

  Hello Jiri

  As a first step, I will confirm what Robin wrote on the package of added value. Back to your problem: no one knows what kind of software you installed and t is possible that now you have some negative influence on the functionality of Flash cards. Please try to reactivate the flash cards. You can do this next start - all programs-Toshiba-Utilities-Restart Flash Cards.

  To be honest, after installation of some software there are many issues with your laptop nice Portege and maybe you need to restore the operating system to an earlier time using System Restore option. After having done that, I'm sure that everything will be OK again.

• on dv6 fingerprint reader has stopped working after installing Norton 2012

  Fingerprint reader has stopped working after installing Norton Internet Security 2012 on both of my notebooks from HP.

  Product name: HP Pavilion dv6

  Operating system: Windows 7 64-bit

  Error message in Device Manager under biometric devices in Device Manager displays an exclamation mark beside validity sensors (WBF) (PID = 0018). The following message is under the general tab: "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) ».

  Driver is present and seems to be up-to-date.

  Appreciate your help.

  I have finally isolated the problem of my software lack of HP dv6 fingerprint reader. I think Norton Removal Tool, available online at www.symentec.com/nrt, was the reason. I am sure this conclusion because the exact same problem occurred after I installed Norton Internet Security 2012 on laptop HP same as my wife. I tried, in vain, to uninstall and reinstall the driver for the biometric fingerprint device provided by Validity Sensors, Inc.

  After spending a day and a half to try to "solve" the problem, I decided to restore my system and go back to the prior agreement of the point of the installation of Norton. Thank you HP to make this process quick and painless. Don't forget that if you installed anything after the restore point, it will have to be reinstalled.

  Fortunately, there's a less intrusive on CD of Norton removal tool. This utility uninstalls an older version of Norton you are requested to restart and then installs the latest NIS. It is a method of removal safer that wide brush offered by the Norton Online link, which wipes everything remotely suspect.

  After reinstalling Norton Internet Security 2012 from the CD, everything works as it should, including the fingerprint reader.

If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.
   
  e. click OK, and then click restart.
   
  Once the computer restarts, check if you get the error of starting.
   
  Reset the computer to start as usual
   
  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  1. Click Start , type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER.
  2. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click continue.
  3. On the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.
