I changed the IP address, the subnet mask and default gateway so cannot print over wireless.

Try a clean boot. I don't know what version of Windows you are running, so just do a Google search for "Windows Clean Boot. Also delete your files from %temp% before redownloading and run the installation.

This printer is ready for the garbage?

    schief81,

    I think that you are on the right track.  The buttons on the left do not become activated when you tap the top right?  If this is the case, then your printer has a serious problem and I am unsure of what you can do about it.

    Yes, a system recovery will certainly increase the system performance.  You must make a backup of your personal data before you start.  I do a system restore at least once a year.  I love the feel of a computer without glitches.

  • HP Photosmart C4780: Factory Reset for HP Photosmart C4780

    I recently started using a new wireless router after a move, and I'm able to get my computer and my printer on the same network.

    I tried to figure out how to change the network that connects the printer, but I was completely failed. I did a lot of searching around, and nothing seems to work. For what it's worth, I had all the last printer and driver software with the software update feature on my Mac. I am also able to connect to the printer and print using a USB cable. But I'm completely unable to access all the settings of the printer that would allow me to move the printer to the same network as the computer. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

    I think that if I could get the printer to do a factory reset or a hard reset, that might be a better place to start. I think that the printer has some memory kept the old wireless network, because this network name appears on one of these pages, you can print troubleshooting. But if the printer didn't remember any wireless network, then it might be easier to implement on the new wireless network. Unfortunately, I can't find any information on how to do a factory zero either, so if anyone knows how to do, please also let me know.

    Hi @rumsmuggler

    Forgive me for the delay in my response.

    It's strange, that it must continue to blink and only go solid once your computer is connected to the network printers.

    It could be the wireless radio no longer works properly, I will send you a different reset in a private message, please check the little envelope on the upper right of the forums page to check your Inbox of Forums.

    Then you can try the steps again.

    Please let me know if these steps solved your problem, or if there is anything else I can do to help.

    I look forward to hear from you!

    Thank you

  • I have my 5 factory reset iPhone, now I can't set up my iPhone because it must be enabled, and I don't have a sim card. Can someone help me please?

    I have my 5 factory reset iPhone, now I can't set up my iPhone because it must be enabled, and I don't have a sim card to make. Is there a way I can install and use my iPhone without needing to be activated? Can someone help me please?

    To skip the activation of sim card, you can use iTunes if you have a CDMA iPhone. However, if you have a GSM model you will need to insert a sim card to activate your iPhone (it can even be used/inactive). Here is an article that will help you determine if your iPhone is GSM or CDMA: http://osxdaily.com/2012/11/15/determine-iphone-gsm-or-cdma/

  • Envy of HP Touchsmart m7-J120Dx: help please - Factory Reset failed on HP Envy

    Recently, my touch screen laptop was suffering from extreme "ghost key" that made the laptop basically unusable until what I disabled the human and used only the mouse interface. I went on a popular site that has accompanied me through many scans detailed and determined that it was not a virus/malware issue.

    So, I tried a system restore and that didn't help. Next step was a factory reset picture using the recovery disks that I made at the time of purchase. After 3 attempts, resetting continues to fail. He always looks promising and gets to the 'Welcome to the administrator' screen but then returned to "installing the software" finds himself finally on-screen "restoration incomplete". When I try to record the details of newspaper on a DVD it says that there is not enough free space even if it's a blank 4.7 GB disc. I took a photo of the paper (attached) if that helps.

    On a side note, in the "software installation" process the blinked eye at random and this frame which seemed to be menus drop down open randomly for fractions of seconds in the background... which none appeared kosher to me - but I'm not expert tech. "."

    I have an extended warranty and may end up having to send it, but prefer to fix here if possible. I love this laptop and am at a complete loss here - thanks for any help/advice!

  • HP photosmart C4780 is unable to uninstall the software. Help!

    Photosmart C4780 running on Mac Book Pro - OS 10.6 - Snow Leopard

    I want to uninstall the software of the printer HP Photosmart C4780 from my Mac, but when I go in "Applications" and then open the HP folder, there no program "Uninstall" to choose as appropriate. "  Have looked into other folders in the library, but can't find it.  Help, please!

    BL1, Happy Friday! Looks like someone can be manually dragged into the garbage...? The only thing I can think off the top of my head would be to go ahead and drag the whole folder of HP in the trash and see if that takes care of it. If this isn't the case, it may be easier to reinstall the software to leave the updated software, then go ahead and erases everything the new HP uninstall program.

    Good luck and let me know if you need assistance more

  • I recently did a factory reset on my computer and saved all my files on a flash drive when I load them onto my computer, they look all as internet files explore instead of dreamweaver files, please, help?

    I recently did a factory reset on my computer and saved all my files on a flash drive when I load them onto my computer, they look all as internet files explore instead of dreamweaver files, please, help?

    They probably had the IE icon because Windows automatically associate with IE html files.

    It is of no consequence for your work in Dreamweaver, but you can change this association if you wish.

    Go to control panel > default of programs > set Associations.

    I had to do a factory reset on my W7 64 bit PC and reload my software. Now I can't access the CR2 files. Help!

    These are the files that I have consulted before the reset and come from my Canon 550 d.

    Do I need another plugin?

    I think the key is that the updates failed.

    I suggest try to update manually via the packets 'Camera Raw 6.7 Update' and 'Adobe Photoshop 12.0.4 updated for Adobe Photoshop CS5' found here: Adobe - Photoshop: for Windows

  • PALM TX - Factory Reset question - need help

    I have a PALM TX. The green power button on top seems the PALM TX turns on but not turn off the power. The home on the PALM TX button will literally reset the PALM TX by it turn off and save as a PC. The soft reset by clicking on the reset at the back button works. The hard reset never works it just of upward loads data and time to change initially. I tried a reset which apparently does not apply to the PALM TX zero. I'm doing gift of this device, but I want to make sure that all my information is a first. I think I'll just keep it if I can't find a way to do a factory reset.

    When all else failed, I tried to remove only randomly all the softare or memory on the primary server, but at some point it resets and it won't let me do this etiher. A knowledge of any software I can add to make a factory reset?

    Tara

    Is this your first Palm?  It sounds like from an older older device file system have been sent to this TX.

    A Hard Reset is recommended.  If your power switch is in effect unusable, I have another solution.

    To perform a hard reset: (Palm Knowledgebase article #887)

    By now the power down button, press on and release the Reset button on the back and continue to press the Power button. When the gray Palm logo is displayed, you can release the Power button.

    You should now see the warning in 5 languages page. Press the direction upward on the 5-way keypad to perform the task. The Palm restarts several times as it re - install the original programs and erases all data from your previous.

    If you are unable to do the above, download and install the "Hard Reset" here:

    http://www.palmpowerups.com/downloads.php?cat_id=2

    The program will run immediately reset when it runs.

  • HP PhotoSmart C4780: need help to connect to new router

    I have a HP Photosmart C4780 all-in-one. All the SW downloaded from HP. worked before but I just have to move on to a new Netgear wireless router. Read the previous replies to forum, but nothing seems to work:

    1. print the HP Network Configuration Page, but the URL says: http://0.0.0.0

    2 tried the WPS button on the printer and the router option, but it times out every time, never connect.

    3 tried the PIN option, but ends with the same result.

    4. I don't have the USB cable anymore, otherwise I would simply use it to connect momentarily.

    5. sometimes there is no time-out, and the printer displays the mention 'WPS error'

    I have Win 7 OS. How the hell can I connect?

    According to the document below the link, one of the conditions to connect the printer to the wireless network is a USB cable. I'm sorry, but it seems that you need to get a to put in place with.

  • Help me my Inspiron 5520 core i5 factory reset

    I have a blue screen error of death (no mountable bootvolume) I can't login on any mode screens in nothing works just reboots so I tried to reset everything as a last attempt, but I don't have the cd. So I bought a cd - r and what he was going to put what I had there and the computer would read what he has implemented. Can someone link me to whst I need or tell me it will work yet?

    Hi Oppositeofhood,

    Unmountable boot volume might be a few things, maybe a bad hard drive. So you do not want to perform a factory reset without diagnose the problem first. And what I would do first is to test your hard drive.

    To test your hard drive using your Dell Drivers and Utilities disc:
    1. reboot your system. When you see the Dell logo, press F12 to open the start menu.
    2 insert the Dell drivers and disk utility in your CD/DVD drive.
    3. choose the option to boot from the CD/DVD drive.
    4. you will be asked to hit any key to continue booting from the CD/DVD drive.
    5. you will be asked to hit 1 to run Dell diagnostics. You can see two of these menus.
    6. Select the test system.
    7. Select Custom Test.
    7. use the arrow keys or the mouse to select your hard drive.
    9. click on running Tests.
    10 write error messages.
