  • Unable to connect to the computer using wifi

    A got a new Sony HX30V and tried to use the feature "send to the computer. He is able to connect to the wi - fi home and also able to detect the name of the computer to which it is supposed to transfer the photos to. However, during the process to actually connect to the computer, it throws a "network error" after trying for about 30 seconds. I have Windows 8 running on my system. Any ideas how to solve this?

    After spending hours and hours with exactly the same problem, I found the solution. I tried with 2 computers with different OS, 2 different networks, and I read a lot of posts...

    The problem behind it is that you could not transfer images using WIFI while your computer is also connected via WIFI.  Then:

    (1) connect your computer using the connection of the cable to the access point.

    (2) connect the camera via USB to your computer and make sure that the PlayMemories software detects the camera.

    (3) then, unplug the unit and send images to the computer using WIFI.

    If this does not work because the shipment never ends, and then review:

    (1) the battery should not be weak, or if she is then connect the camera to the power supply.

    (2) the distance from the camera to the access point must be short (maximum of 3 meters), otherwise it is too slow.

  • It activated on the computer, or user profile?

    My company has a very simple question that is apparently impossible for chat, phone and Twitter support representatives to meet.

    We have a computer on our domain, who will share people. We want to log in as themselves. We have an admin profile on that we would be activate Photoshop and, possibly, Acrobat. In the past, any user can connect and use the software. He was activated once and saved on the computer. If we did a subscription, is it activated by the user? Should we put up with a shared just profile to use this software? Only 1 person would use it at the same time, and really only if a customer sent us that older versions of file failed to open.

    I just upgraded to Windows 10 and now I'm not able to scan from the printer to the computer. I can scan the other way IE. computer to scan but is not as convenient. I had no question before the upgrade. The error message I get is


    "The analysis could not be performed because of one or more of the following problems:

    -Connection to the computer is lost.

    -L' scanning on the computer application is currently in use.

    -Application OCR is not installed on the computer.

    First of all it is connected with a usb cable, so no logical reason why the connection is lost.

    Secondly it is not used because I am trying to use it

    Third, it has baffled me because there is no reason why the OCR application is now gone, he worked before windows 10.

    and finally there is no detail on the computer screen, why it tells me that I do not understand.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Looks like the next option is to uninstall & reinstall the printer software. This will ensure that the scan to computer option is restored.

    1. is your computer connected to a domain?

    If your computer is connected to a domain environment I would ask you to contact the administrator of the computer.
    Your journal Id and password is checked on the network, since you are not able to connect to the network it is why you are unable to connect.

  • Vista on the computer using hp laptop and when office comes to the screen after start, all icons and programs are amplified.

    This just happened to new start-up of three days. Prior to this time everything worked very well. Also it some dialog boxes asking to click to launch an application platform that we know nothing about. We have looked for answers and went to the Control Panel, easy access and off Magnifier. But it is magnified. All icons and applications and the magnified programs.are. No new programs have been installed, no fonts won't changed, none of the DPI changed by us. . Some have suggested to go into the registry, but I'm not here. There are available restore points to restore. I don't know why there are no restore points.  Even went in safe mode and couldn't find the restore point. Our solutions may be next = copy data, use the restore disk, and all reinstall. GOSH, there must be an easier than treatment... Or go to the computer repair shop. Suggestions? Please, I beg you!

    Hello
     
    Sorry, but the political forum do not allow any information for the recovery of passwords. This is necessary because of the anonymous nature of these forums.
     
    In this case, the best solution is to take the computer to a local computer repair shop and ask them to retrieve the password for you.

    These forums and Microsoft have a software cracking password policy.
