Here is the configuration I am unable to share a HP 3930 printer that is connected to a desktop computer Windows 7 64 - bit to a 32 bit Vista laptop

I enabled sharing the printer and I do not use password protected sharing.  I am able to open shared files from one computer to another.  But when I try to connect to the printer I get the following message "unable to connect to the printer. Make sure you typed the name correctly and the printer is connected to the network. "The printer is offline.  I plugged the printer two computers so that pilots would download and install. And in the number of firewall I have disabled them in order to try to get this working.

HP Support & drivers - go to the site Web and download/install the drivers and utilities for Vista 32 bit HP.
http://welcome.HP.com/country/us/en/support_task.html

Share the printer on the Windows 7 computer. Go to the Vista machine, then install the drivers you downloaded. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers. If the regular installation does not see the printer:

Go to the Windows 7 machine. Note the name of the computer that you will get to the control panel > system > computer name. Now in the Panel, go to the printers. Find the printer in question, right-click, and then click Properties. Note the name of the share. Of course you must have already set up file sharing / print on all computers involved and share the printer.

Now go to the machine Vista, control panel > printers > add printer

Click Add a local printer. Click on create a new port. The default value in the drop-down list box is Local Port. Don't change that. Click Next. A dialog box appears for you request that you enter a port name. Type in the \\FullComputername\SharedPrintername

ex: \\mycomputer\HPDJ (that's why you wrote the names of computer and printer in the first step)

Click Next. In the manufacturers list, select the correct printer manufacturer and the correct printer model in the Printers list. Under "do you want to use this printer as default printer select"Yes"(if you do!). and click Next. When asked to print a test page, select 'Yes', then finish.

  • Error in the configuration wizard. Unable to connect to the router.

    All connections are correct.  I am able to connect to IE and FireFox with ethernet and connected my corner via "Linksys".  I opened with ISP address and configure security.  Is there more in the configuration I have to do?

    What is the model number of your router? If the internet connection is working well, then you need not to worry the installation disc. As long as you know how to set up the router manually and able to access the interface of the router then there is nothing to worry about. It is with the disk configuration wizard is exceeded or there could be some firewall software on the computer that is blocking the setup of your router to detect Wizard. It is the most common problem I encountered, but well it's always the manual configuration. If you do not need to install and use the software just go to the linksys download site, or you can also consider using another computer.

    5. Enter the SSID, as WPA2-Enterprise security type, type of encryption like AES, check the boxes to connect automatically and connect even if the network is not broadcasting
    6. An unexpected error has occurred
    Method #3: Try to trick windows

    2. Select set up a new connection or network
    3. Select manually connect to a wireless network
    4. Select one of my adapters
    5. Enter the SSID but select an open network
    6. Adds the network
    7. Then try to change properties
    8. WPA2-Enterprise security type

    10. "Choose a network authentication method:" drop-down menu is empty!
    11. Windows has encountered an error saving the wireless profile.  Specific error: the profile has an invalid length field.
    I'm pretty desperate for a solution.

    The problem occurs when you perform a Wizard for easy transfer to a computer that was Symantec Endpoint Protection installed to one without him.

    Answer, copypasted:

    Inspect the key mentioned above - that is of HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services\RasMan\PPP\EAP.

    In each of the number keys look something like ConfigPathBackup and its corresponding ConfigPath - there are a number of them.

    For each, I deleted the original key (e.g., ConfigPath) and restored the original by renaming ConfigPathBackup to ConfigPath

    For each of them, the State is now restored to her pre State Symantec - each key pointed to a Symantec location that is no longer present and by restoring the path key backs up everything was fine

  • How to remove fasteners of the persistent disks that do not have a desktop computer?

    Hello community,

    We have a small problem in our society. We use VMware View 4.5 and really like it. Our office is based on Win7 and everything works really well. But for some Ford, we managed to create persistent discs attached... without a desktop computer?

    As you can see on the capture screen, desktop computers are used with persistent records. Five of them are assigned to a user, but do not have a desktop computer. Users can work, because they have a new drive persistens, created automatically. But the 'old' are now and can not be spare, cause her are not attached! But without disassembly, we cannot delete it. Just posted discs can be deleted... it's a doom loop

    So maybe someone has already had the same error? I mean... the files do not exist on our storage and users can work, there is no problem with this, but it seems that the database of the vmware view do not know, that the files have disappeared... is there a way to delete the entries in the database for this five-disc?

    We have tried to export (with the tool on the server) and re-imported, but it doesn't work, cause, you are not able to remove things when importing data backups... What can do us?

    Hello
    Take a look at the link:
    In the other discussion, the solution was: connect with ADSI, go to OU = data disks and remove entries

  • I upgraded the ram and wish to have access to more than 3 GB, so I'll need to install Windows 7 64 bit

    Original title: Aero

    Yes please

    As the 32-bit drivers won't work not on Windows 7 64 bit is very important that you check that the 64-bit Windows 7 drivers are available for all your equipment (not only devices such as printers) before you upgrade. The Windows Upgrade Advisor is a useful starting point, but to be sure to look on the Web site of the manufacturer of your PC, or to defect, the manufacturer of the equipment.

  • Can't install or uninstall non-Windows and related Windows-related programs on the desktop of Windows 7 64 bit

    Hi all, on Windows 7 64-bit PC brother Dell, tried to install programs such as AVG Anti Virus, Remote desktop connection update.

    Every time we try what is installation hangs and nothing happens, to use the Task Manager to complete not only the program, if it is not there at all, but the actual process.

    Same thing happens if we try to uninstall a program.

    Can uninstall in safe mode,

    Have tried restore system to a time of ealrier, but the system does not want to do same.

    At work after a few weeks, but since then without success.

    I ran SFC/scanow.

    No Anti Virus is installed at present. that, like the program, I was able to uninstall in safe mode and using the Norton Uninstall tool.

    Tried Mr FixIt, but nothing helped.

    What else can I try before I go to the extreme of a new facility? Looks like a problem with the Windows Me installation program.

    Thanks in advance

    No problem here on my desktop version of CS6.  See these photos of my test results:

    I don't use CC so I don't know why it only allows you to change the size of the window.  In your picture, you have the arrows you will need to click to get the size of the right window, AFTER you have entered a new size.  That's how I did on my version of CS6.

    Good luck.
