• Scanner (Officejet 7500) cannot find the computer when you use shortcuts scan to printer

  When you choose Scan to PDF, e-mail, etc., by using the scanning on the 7500 buttons it allows me to select the computer on the network (each with all of the latest drivers and software loaded). However when about to the scanner and then says the computer is not found (whatever the) despite them being on and ready. Scanning by any other method of the Mac works. Automator shortcuts work very well during the tests, but they do not seem to get initiated by the scanner for scanning form of initiation of the printer itself.

  Research on the support site HP and conclusion - a 'connection error' or "Computer no. detected" Error Message displays when trying to Scan from the printer control panel - as a subject gives PC solutions, but nothing for Mac. And so here I am. Help!

  JKB

  The next thing to check is that "HP Device Monitor" is running.  This background process is responsible for detecting the keys for scanning applications.  If you open the activity monitor (located in/Applications/Utilities) you should see this class as one of the running processes.

  It may be generally preferable for you to perform an uninstall and reinstall the HP software.  You will find in Applications/Hewlett-Packard HP Uninstaller.  Use this utility to remove the old software.  I recommend that you download and install the latest version of the software for your 7500 here: http://tinyurl.com/4voly2d.

  After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer. Also I can't 'manage' my computer because I do not have "permissions". I tried a fix he 45071 and it did nothing.

  Applications, (Norton and McAfee) (including free evaluation versions are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.) If NIS has been installed for 3 years, you have NIS update at least once and maybe twice (e.g., NIS 2009 > NIS 2010 > NIS 2011).

  1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

  5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  Hi Stephdan,

  1. have you done any hardware changes or software on your computer before this problem?

  2. Why are you trying to fix the computer?

  It would be possible that the Windows XP installation disc is damaged.

  (a) you can try to do a Windows XP disk which should correspond to the same edition, as it is installed on your machine.

  (b) later, try to repair the installation and check if you are able to boot to the desktop normally.

  Perform a repair Installation

  
  Note: however, you should not have Service Pack 3 installed on the computer before you run repair installation.

  Hope the helps of information.
  Please post back and we do know.

  The system cannot find the specified file.

  Is that error on this post code, IE something deleted, probably your antivirus or you.

  For problems to explore, which has nothing to do with this post, try this (which covers almost any problem).

  Explorer

  Explorer (explorer.exe) is the program that is the start menu and taskbar, windows folder and the office (which is a folder window).

   

  To see if a fix is available

  In Control Panel (and select Classic discovered in the left pane) select reports on the problems and Solutions (problem of type in the START search box), go to historical problem, right-click of your error and choose check for the Solution.

  You can also right-click and choose Details for more information. Post these details here. The name of the Module fault is important information.

  If the problem affects Panel press the Windows key + R and type wercon (or type it at a command prompt).

   

  Close the browser and start a command prompt

  • Close Windows Explorer
  • Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator.
  • Click Start. Ctrl + Shift + Right-click on an empty spot (just above the power of buttons is one place) then Exit Explorer.
  • Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete then Task Manager.
  • Control all processes to explore are closed. On the process tab select explore and right-click and choose end process, repeat if more of an Explorer in the list.

  Then to restart the Explorer after trying all of the following

  • Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and choose Task Manager
  • In the Task Manager, click the file menu and then click new task (run) and enter explorer

   

  If you cannot start the Explorer at all

  • Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and choose Task Manager
  • Under the processes tab, click Show processes from all users to elevate to administrator
  • In the Task Manager, click the file menu and then click new task (run) and type cmd
  • Other things you can try typing
    

    Explorer
    Explorer c:\
    Explorer/e, c:\
    wercon
    control
    Iexplore
    Rstrui

  If you cannot start a folder window you can use the Browse button in the new task dialog. Don't forget that you must right click and choose Open rather than double-clicking.

   

  Reregister the shell registry entries

  It is important that each order is accepted. If the command fails it means the file is damaged and must be repaired.

  Close the Explorer like above and then type at the command prompt (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).

  del "% userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer\*.db".

  Disable thumbnails and previews

  Damaged documents and particularly corrupt pictures or videos, can cause Explorer crash all trying to generate a thumbnail or an overview. This miniature and previews active option off.

  If you can start the Explorer, previews is Union on the command - folder and Search Options - framework of tasks use classic Windows foldersbar.

  Thumbnails are organized on the command bar - folder and Search Options - view tab - and check under Advanced settings - always show icons, never thumbnails and uncheck Show icon file in the pictures.

  A boot is a way to explore

  It can be caused by a shell extension.

  Explorer (explorer.exe) is the program that is the start menu and taskbar, windows folder and the office (which is a folder window).

  The Explorer is built on addin programs called Extensions of Shell. The standard is provided by Microsoft, but programs add their own.

  • Download Autoruns http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
  • Close Windows Explorer
  • Start Autoruns by right-clicking and choose run as administrator
  • Click on the menu Options - Filter Options and check hide Microsoft entries and disable include empty locations
  • Go to the Explorer tab and uncheck everything to the left.
  • Click Start. Ctrl + Shift + Right-click on an empty spot (just above the power of buttons is one place) then Exit Explorer.
  • Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and choose Task Manager.  Control all processes to explore are closed. On the process tab select explore and right-click and choose end process, repeat if more of an Explorer in the list.
  • Click the file menu and then click new task (run) and enter explorer

  If this can help, reactivate ½ at a time to identify those who. If this does not help, restart AutoRuns and go to the all tab and uncheck everything that it and restart. If this can help, reactivate ½ at a time to identify those who.
