Cannot use join homegroup, no button "join"

Hello
I am trying to create homegroup with my pc at home and my laptop.
Two computers connected to the same wireless network.
My home pc is running windows 7 ultimate x 64 eng and my laptop is running windows 7 pro x 64 ING.
My router is TP-LINK 941ND, the computer are not connected directly to the router, my pc at home using D-Link adapter.

I created the homegroup on my home pc, but can not see the homegroup to my laptop, there is no button "join".

I tried to disable the antivirus + firewall (NOD32) on both computers, but still not good.
Before you disable the firewall, I couldn't ping the computer from one to the other, after this, ping succeeded.
On both computers, I discovered the network on.

In addition, I checked all of these services, and they were as it should:

  • Client DNS - started and automatic
  • Function Discovery Provider Host- Startup and manual
  • Function Discovery Resource Publication - started and automatic
  • HomeGroup listener - started and manual
  • Manual and HomeGroup provider - started
  • Network list service - started and manual
  • Peer Networking Grouping - started and manual
  • Server - started and automatic
  • SSDP Discovery - started and manual
  • UPnP device host - started and manual

Thanks in advance.

  • My computer is on a network, but Windows 7 (Pro x 64) shows that it is not. Cannot change network location to home. Cannot use the homegroup.

    I'm putting my network (with homegroup) home, but when I go into control panel > network and Internet > homegroup, it says:

    "This computer cannot connect to a homegroup." Then,

    "To create or join a homegroup, network location of your computer must be on home."

    Okay so. I go to network and sharing Center and click on "connect to a network" and I get a box in the lower right corner that says "no connection available.

    I find that strange, because when I click on 'My Computer', I see in the left pane all the computers in my house under 'Network'... so I'm in network... but I'm not?

    It is a problem because until I am able to add this computer, I am unable to share the data on this computer and it is my office alone AND the pc is connected to my router.

    I can not access my storage drive. I can't stream media.

    All opinions are appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello

    Check the Device Manager for the entry of valid card of the wire.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_dm.jpg

    If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

    Check network connections to make sure that you have a Local Area Connection icon/entry, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_connection_tcp.jpg

    Connect you to the menu of the router from a work computer and make sure DHCP is on, and it is configured to assign IPs which can cover the number of computers that are connected (a bit more will be even better).

    Turn off the computer and the router, reset the router and the computer.

    Right-click on the wireless network connection card, select status, details and see if she got an IP address and the rest of the settings.

    It still does not work, try this too.

    Firewall software.

    Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall Windows Firewall should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

    Please note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly, or uninstall it completely allowing the clean flow of traffic on the local network. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

  • Galaxy S4, HP 8600, error: cannot use this photo option

    Hello.  I have a problem with mobile printing to my HP 8600 N911g of my Samsung Galaxy S4 v4.2.2 Android running.

    According to the HP documentation this combination of devices should be able to use the built-in HP android printing solution, which basically means that I wouldn't install anything to print.  When I try to print from the browser on the phone, I choose the option 'print '.  I am able to locate and select the printer on my network.  I see the preview of the web page on the phone.  I click on the "print" button and get a message in the top of the screen saying "starts to print.  Then I get an error pop up at the bottom that says: "print error: cannot use this print option.

    I turned the market things.  The phone and the printer are on the same wifi network.  The printer I have installation ePrint as well as wifi direct (although I do not know what counts).  I tried to disable bluetooth.

    Clues?  Would appreciate some help here.

    PS - I also tried to download the HP ePrint app on the android market and had success with either... but I'm sure that I shouldn't do that, right?

    Thank you.

  • DeskJet 460, cannot use the Toolbox Windows in Windows 7

    Just bought mobile printer HP Deskjet 460 take traveling with the new laptop, which will no doubt be Windows 8.  Installed printer on my computer running Windows 7.  Installed automatically when I plugged it in.  Do not have installation CD.  Downloaded Windows box to tools on the HP site, but when I try to use it I get message cannot use it because the printer driver is not installed.  Tried the solution I found in this forum to run the Toolbox in compatibility mode for Vista and that caused a window to open it by saying I need to align the cartridges, but the Toolbox then basically hangs and will not function.  How can I perform the functions described in the user guide when they say open the Toolbox?

    The printer prints large so far, but I have a feeling I'll need Toolbox afterwards.

    Is this printer just not completely compatible with Windows 7 or 8?

    Is there another way outside the Toolbox to align the cartridges or clean them or what is in the box at tools?

    Hi @KathyAtHome

    There is no complete software driver for the 460 Deskjet which is compatible with Windows 7 or 8, instead, you use a driver in OS and features.

    With the - OS driver, some of the buttons on the product do not work, and some of the advanced features of these products are not available. For more information about your driver in the OS and see workarounds for lost features, go to the frequently asked questions section.

    You can see, " ", "workaround solutions use following HP Toolbox when you install the product using the driver in Windows 7. "

    BUT,

    You can use the print HP and doctor Scan to perform this maintenance like cleaning the print heads and to check ink levels.
