    I don't know if the hub is the reason or not - but a powered hub is the better of the two options in the case of a USB connection.

    If it was me, I connect the printer (temporarily) and remove the hub of the mixture just to see if it is the cause or not. If this isn't an option, what to connect to your home via ethernet and withdrawal/re-adding network as a network printer?

    Remove the hub of the equation is just standard troubleshooting - get rid of the 'intermediaries' so to speak. Factors less in the equation, it is easy to sharpen the first cause (ideally the narrowing down to printer hardware or software of the computer/workstation). From what you have said so far, I doubt very much that the mac or the mac software is the issue. However, we need to refine the material until we can find the component that is causing the problem.

    Other things to try to understand:

    -Try a different outlet (remove the outlet, as the question)

    -Try a different power cable (eliminating the feeder as the question)

    -Try a different cable USB (USB cable like the question to eliminate)

    -Try another port on the USB hub powered (port currently used on the hub so that the question of eliminating).

    Because of the limitations of distance, looks try an ethernet configuration could have the least impact on your configuration, because the ethernet connections do not require a Repeater cable up to 100 m distance.

  • I deleted my pictures and videos to free up space on my iPhone 6, but the settings and iTunes still say that I've not left storage. Help, please.

    Hello

    I have an iPhone 6 and uses iOS 9.3.2,and I recently deleted all my pictures and videos to free up space, "Manage the storage" in still however said circles I 23.4 GB of photos/videos like iTunes when I connect my iPhone to my Mac. I deleted my recently deleted folder and follow the instructions of a guy showing a year, which suggests to set my phone date about two years back and deleting the photos recently deleted the file and both of these solutions do not work. I have reset my phone (home and power button operation / stop) and also, it does not work. I don't want to wipe my phone and restore it if possible, but it's the only option I can think of next.

    Are there other solutions before I try this?

    Thanks in advnace

    Ben

    Hey Ben,

    Thanks for stopping by the communities Support from Apple! Looks like you are trying to free up space on your iPhone by deleting all the photos and videos, and you still see 23.4 GB absorbed by these files. You have already made sure to empty your recently deleted album, fix the date of return on your phone and performed a hard reset on your device. You did an excellent job so far, and I'll be happy to give you some ideas to move forward from here.

    Before diving into other troubleshooting procedures, it would be useful to ensure that you have a recent backup of your iPhone is available. This will help us ensure that all your important data is stored safely for you. Here is an article with information on how to backup your device:

    The backup of your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    Once it is in place, I recommend you to reset the settings on your phone. This is not the impact of your personal data, but you will have to perhaps adjust the user specific settings, but also re - enter passwords and Wi - Fi networks. To complete this step, go to settings > general > reset > reset all settings. When you restart your phone, check if the local storage on your phone has updated to reflect the changes you did related to your photos and videos.

    Beyond that, you want to look at your phone erase and reset to the factory settings. It is possible that some kind of software corruption causes the divergence of storage that you are experiencing. Set up your phone as a new device via iTunes install a new copy of iOS and also to exclude the corrupted files, etc. in your user data. This is a resource for this process:

    Use iTunes on your Mac or PC to restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings

    For later use, it may be useful to use iCloud photo library to transfer and store your photos. There is a feature that allows you to optimize the storage on your iPhone so that your photos and your videos do not have as much local storage space. Check out this resource to learn more about iCloud photo library:

  • With the help of old Windows CD to install the optional component deleted Outlook Express and I need to get it back!

    We have received a Windows XP laptop from a friend and use Outlook Express for e-mail. We had a number of other things such as pilots with the laptop but not the Windows CD.  Then we wanted to reduce the size of a jpg image and I wanted to use MS Photo Editor to do what I then read on the Microsoft site that I could get by installing from any Windows CD.  Therefore, I used an old Windows XP CD from another PC, choose to install an optional component and chose as accessories to the next screen, ensure that all other options were struck down, assuming that so they would simply not be installed.  One of them was Outlook Express and Internet Explorer.  Instead of THIS the wizard DELETED Outlook Express and Internet Explorer.  When I tried to get him back by checking these options, asked me for the 2nd day of the original installation CD - which of course, I did not!  I have managed to re - download IE8 from Microsoft Download site, but of course do that for Outlook Express - and we don't have Office on this computer: (.)  Help!  (a) is it possible to reverse this process to remove/uninstall Outlook Express? (b) we now lost all our emails? (c) I already tried to go back to a previous good configuration, but that has not worked.

    Thank you in advance for advice, answers or help.

    First, make sure that OE has actually disappeared.  Go to start | Run and paste this and see if OE starts:

    "c:\program files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe".

    Including the quotes and see if OE starts.  Very often "withdrawal" OE removes just the shortcut to it.

    If this does not work, you can try reinstalling XP SP3 (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/help/learn-how-to-install-windows-xp-service-pack-3-sp3), but you should probably uninstall IE8 first and then reinstall it later.

    You can also go to the c:\windows\inf directory and locate the msoe5.inf file and right-click on it and choose Install and see if that fixes things.

    See if that works.

  • Windows XP SP3 - Outlook Express receives and sends mail but do not delete received messages. Can you help?

    Windows XP SP3 - Outlook Express receives and sends messages, but do not delete received messages.  Can you help?

    You have corruption of dbx files.
     
    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and move the messages you want to record off deleted items, and sent items. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.
     
    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
     
    With OE closed, find the Deleted Items.dbx and Sent Items.dbx files and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.
     
    Compact all folders as described below.
     
    To avoid this in the future:
     
    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
     
    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095
     
    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
     
    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
     
    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

    Argh it's frustrating! I never noticed that the key was not working in InDesign.

    A bit of research and it turns out that the MS Office has this as an option in their software. But I can't find an option in the InDesign preferences to make it work.

    However, somethings do not appear in the shortcuts and preferences and are hidden triggers in InDesign that are accessible via a script.

    I'm not saying that it is possible to activate the button insert by using a script, but it is plausible that he can be activated.

    Maybe ask on the forum script? Scripting InDesign

    I know that this may be a possibility as with InDesign prior to export PDF documents interactive versions, there was previously no way to export PDFs interactive as unique pages if the gaps of.

    But the option to toggle this setting was scriptable.
