Get a PhotoSmart C5580 to work with a Bluetooth connection in Windows 8

I have a PhotoSmart C5580 for several years.  It was working fine with my old laptop running Windows 7 with USB and Bluetooth.  My new laptop has 8 64-bit Windows and the USB connection works fine, but I can't get the Bluetooth connection to work for the life of me.  The old laptop needed a USB Bluetooth adapter, but the new laptop has Bluetooth built in.

I'm pretty tech savvy and searched through various online and tried the HP Installation Wizard help documents, but they speak mainly on USB and wireless and not on Bluetooth technology.  The Panel has USB and BT printers installed.  BT is currently marked as default printer.  The BT menu on the printer is marked to be visible, and BT options on the computer seem far too, because the computer totally see the BT printer.  The list of Windows 8 devices (two BT and otherwise) lists currently both the USB printer, which according to her, is cause of disconnected the USB cable is disconnected in fact and not the BT printer, he's talking about.

Whenever I have remove the BT printer and add it again, the HP software/driver installs again and says it's successful (even if the driver for the USB connection and the software are already installed and work very well).

The only problem is that the HP Solution Center indicates that the BT printer is disconnected.  It really tells me nothing more than that.  It's the same message that my old laptop would give me if I didn't have the USB Bluetooth adapter plugged in, but here the BT is built, and the computer says it is on and working very well.  So I'm a little confused at this point.  Any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

I am delighted to hear that, and I'll pass that along our engineers so that they do not worry. I didn't even really think, but if you leave the USB cord is plugged it will disable the BT adapter in the machine - which could cause prints of BT to fail but not USB prints.

Have a wonderful day!

  • AERO Peek stopped working after a few adjustments with HP to get my Photosmart printer to work

    I just upgraded a fairly new computer of mine from Vista to Windows 7 Professional.  The upgarde went well however the AERO Peek stopped working after a few adjustments with HP to get my Photosmart printer to work.  I tried to make the show thumbnails of running programs to display in the taskbar with no luck.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Lisa52465,

    (Already responded to dadams26 in a separate thread and it fixed the problem beautifully).

    Have you tried to run the Aero Troubleshooter? If this is not the case, try this:

    1. open the control panel

    2. go in the system and security category

    3. go to the Center of the Action

    4. click on the link to solve common computer problems

    5. click on appearance and personalization

    6. Select Aero

    He must either correct the errors problem or the State to determine the cause.

    If the Aero Troubleshooter is not the thing, maybe it's just that the Aero feature has been disabled by the update. Try this:

    1. right click on the desktop

    2 select Customize

    3. Select an Aero theme

    4 see if previews back

    Just for the record, could you let us know if any of the suggested fixes works (and which). If you still have problems after trying the above, could you please come back with more details (if possible).

    Hello

    You re right Satellite L500 doesn t have an internal modem, so you need an external.

    I think you can buy every modem that is compatible with Vista. Alternative ask your favorite computer dealer or authorized service provider

  • My camera Olympus only works with Apple's Quick Time 7. Is it possible to make it work with my operating system from Windows XP?

    My camera Olympus only works with Apple's Quick Time 7.  Is it possible to make it work with my operating system from Windows XP?

    Apple QuickTime 7 works is because. MOV is the Apple
    QuickTime format.

    QuickTime. MOV files can cause problems with Windows Media Player.
    And... If you plan to try editing with Movie Maker... the files should
    be converted to the. WMV format.

    No guarantee, but the following decoder might allow Windows Media
    Reader to read your. MOV files. Only problem is... it is not freeware to retail.

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.4 decoder
    http://store.3ivx.com/3ivxStore/product_details.php?ID=11

    Convert the. MOV files to the. WMV format may be worth a try:

    There are many converters available on the net... some
    free... some detail.

    The following freeware converter is just one example:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Format Factory (freeware)
    http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Format_Factory
    (the 'direct link' is faster download)
    (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup295.zip<>
    (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
    ('all' boxes on the final screens)
    (Windows XP / Vista / 7)

    First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
    Drag > FFSetup295.exe< out="" of="" the="">
    and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

    Next, after the download and installation of Format
    Factory... you can open the program and
    left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
    (this is where you find your files after they)
    are converted)

    Drag and drop your video clips on the main screen...

    Select "all to WMV" / OK...

    Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

    That should do it...

    Good luck

  • Palm Treo 680 (T-Mobile) can be used with a Mercedes Benz GL-Class SUV with their Bluetooth connections?

    Hello.

    An old Palm Treo 680 (T-Mobile) can be used with a Mercedes Benz GL-Class SUV with their Bluetooth connections? http://www.Mercedes-Benz-mobile.com/ poster not only any how Palm Smartphones.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello!

    Car kits Mercedes Benz uses are not on our list of compatible for the Treo 680.  You can go here for the list of products compatible bluetooth:

    http://KB.Palm.com/SRVS/cgi-bin/WEBCGI.exe/, /? St = 4236, E = 0000000000323018945, K = 1759, Sxi = 15, case = obj (41198) #headsets

    This could be because we did not try the phone on their cars or is not compatible.  What I would say, it's actually go to a Mercedes Benz dealer and try your phone on this SUV to see how it fairs.  These kits change annually, so it might work won't hurt there try before you buy

  • I can't get my new scanner to work with Equium A60

    I can't get my new scanner (canoscan lide 70) to work with my a60. Is it because the usb ports are all hubs?

    Hello

    > it because the USB ports are all hubs
    Sorry, but this suggestion to me confused.

    I m also owner of a scanner and it s a simplest thing to connect and install it!

    I put t see any problems using the scanner.
    All devices should be delivered with the own installation CD and I guess that your scanner also comes with additional supports.
    This CD contains the description of the installation and the necessary drivers.

  • Could not get palm pilot tx to work with vista 64-bit

    I bought a Dell Studio Hybrid under Vista 64 - bit OS with 4 GB of RAM. .  However, according to the website Compatinbility Web of Microsoft Vista, Vista 64-bit is not compatible with the Palm TX, just Vista running 3 GB of RAM or less.  Anyone can tell me how to get my Palm TX for work (sync) with the Vista 64-bit operating system?

    I uninstalled the Palm, Inc., CD-ROM software and reinstalled only to get the same results: the Vista 64-bit operating system is not compatible with my handheld Palm, Inc.  Please note that even the Palm TX is compatible with all other operating systems Vista except for the 4 GB of RAM, 64-bit Vista oS Microsoft Compatibility Web site said.  Help.  I'd like to be able to sync my pocket computer with the data that I have previously placed on Microsoft Office Access 2007.  Now, when I try to sync, my office simply there and made the ocassional beeps (I guess for signals may not make the Palm TX with Vista 64-bit as function implies the Microsoft Web site.)

    Peter,

    Note that access list names are case-sensitive, so you've actually done something different from what I proposed.

    Please do:

    no nat (Corp_Voice) 0-list of access vpn

    No list of vpn access extended permitted ip TESTvpn 255.255.255.0 everything
    IP 172.30.155.0 255.255.255.0 extended vpn access do not allow any list all

    extended VPN ip 172.30.155.0 access list allow 255.255.255.0 any

    NAT (Corp_Voice) 0-list of access VPN

    In the case where you did deliberately, for example to separate the 2 acl: note that acl VPN (upper case) is also used in the encryption card, where you cannot add a second LCD.

    So if you want to separate you, you will need 3 access lists:

    list of access data-vpn ip TESTvpn 255.255.255.0 allow one

    voice-vpn ip 172.30.155.0 access list allow 255.255.255.0 any

    access-list all - vpn ip TESTvpn 255.255.255.0 allow one

    access-list all - vpn ip 172.30.155.0 allow 255.255.255.0 any

    NAT (inside) 0-list of access vpn data

    NAT (Corp_Voice) - access list 0 voice-vpn

    outside_map 1 match address all vpn crypto card

    Don't know if this was also clearly to my previous message, I recommend you to replace the "all" (in each of the ACL lines) to something more specific (i.e. a remote network, or group of objects that contain the remote networks).

  • How can I get a Dell J740 to work with Windows Vista Home Premium?

    Someone gave me a Dell J740 printer but it won't work with my Windows Vista. As much reading as I did, I do not believe it is compatible. I wish they would do the printers to work with any laptop, computers. It would be too easy.

    You seem to have stumbled in the Windows 7 section of this site instead of the part of Vista. Never mind. The answer is the same, unfortunately.

    It doesn't seem to be a Windows driver for this printer for Vista or Windows 7.
