• I am not able to access a shared printer from another computer on my network. How to solve this?

  Recently, I replaced my NETGEAR wired router with a NETGEAR WNDR3300 Wireless Gateway.  While I am able to share internet access both wired and wireless, on my PC I have shared my printer and several directories.  My wife's PC does not show my PC in the network, but if I ping my PC against hers, it solves the IP address, but the ping times out in vain.  This network allows to work with the original router.  I show PC my wife on the network on my PC.  Since my PC can not be seen on his PC, I can't add the printer shared on his PC.  How to solve this?

  Configure the firewall on each computer to trust the local network and allow the sharing of files and printer.

  More than one firewall running is likely to cause problems.  Select McAfee or Windows Firewall and disable it.

  I suspect that McAfee needs to be configured to approve the new router network.  I don't know what version of what McAfee product, you have, but here's how to do it on the program McAfee Security Center provided by Comcast:

  1 double-click on the Red M in the system tray.
  2. click on Internet & network .
  3. click on Configure .
  4. by firewall protection is enabled , click Advanced .
  5. click on networks .
  6. If your router network does not trust , click Network, click on edit and select Trusted then in the menu.

• Not able to play the game Metro 2033 on Windows Vista-based computer.

  I just installed the game Metro 2033 on my Vista system that uses a 1080 screen.  In fact, I have two identical screens.

  The game requires activation Steam and Steam normally will attempt to update the program rather than simply enable it during installation.  This leaves a person in the dark as to what happens during the installation.

  It turns out, I use a 3G modem that Steam refuses to support their network of Bit Torrent, so download speed for an update of a concert is around 12 kb/s or 8 hours to make the point on a program that has not yet installed.

  After work, I was quite surprised to find that the program would not go on Steam.  He then took a few hours to find out that there is a solution, that I could load the game by running the executable file that had been installed in the directory Steam for Metro 2033.

  Unfortunately Metro2033, when started this default way a unknown screen resolution.  Thus when the game is started from the Steam directory nested, one gets a message "out of range" on the display of 1080 and nothing can be seen.

  Short of launching the game out, I tried the game again, to my great joy, the second run displays a safe mode issue and I ran it in safe mode.  It is quite an exciting game and I played it all night.  However, I had also contacted support original THQ regarding installation problem/solution.

  Then I fell asleep.  The PC was on.

  The next day, I played the 2003 Metro game again, but I entered in some difficult areas of the game, and I had to reload the saved game.  After awhile, I opted to exit the program.  Later, I started the program, but this time I inadvertently clicked on the Metro2033 icon who had installed Steam.   In my solution, I had pasted a link to the directory of Steam under the original icon and had pressed the wrong button.

  Of course, the first thing I saw, after playing the game for 12 hours, was "out of range".  I opted to return to the office...

  ... However I couldn't come back on the Vista desktop.  I have a 7000, and even Microsoft Entertainment keyboard by pressing the buttons of Windows or Media center wouldn't let me come back to the office.

  The day before, I needed to do this that I've experienced to workaround to start getting and I noticed that the only way I could get on the desktop to run the Task Manager to kill the out of range on my screen message has been to press the Media Center button.

  Once the Media Center menu on breaking the subway 2003 menu I could then enter the office and use the Task Manager.

  However, the next day when I inadvertently started the STEAM version, and again, the screen is become black and says 'Out of Range', I found that my system was stuck in this loop.  No way to get in the Manager of tasks at all, not even with the Media center button on my keyboard.

  Now the background of my question.  When I was forced to start my system again, I noticed the normal BIOS screen and the bar of Vista with Vista is loading, then the familiar sound of Vista boot, but now NO SCREEN at all on startup!  Now, something had inserted a driver in my Vista start which forced my display say "Out of Range" from the start of the desktop of Vista and Vista computer has not yet noticed this.  Normally, I would think that they claim that the screen resolution is wrong and put it on, instead, nothing else than the out of range message rigid or flexible boots.

  Original title: can someone tell me what happened here? Metro2033 and steam game.

  I checked by plugging my second monitor.   The system has Safe Mode startup and I was able to do a restore of the system from the previous day to evening to return to the office.   However, I am quite confused as to what happened.  How the Metro 2033 problem "out of range" migrate to Windows startup by running an update of Steam?

  I use the latest service pack for Vista.

  
  

  It seems that the STEAM snuck in an update and then everything worked fine.

• Not able to add printers on El Capitan

  I have a late 2009 Mac Mini running OS X El Capitan 10.11.4.  Since the update to El Capitan, I'm not able to add printers, or find software of the printer.  When I opened the printers and Scanners in system preferences, then click (+) to set up a printer, 'Name', 'Place' and 'Use' is not selectable.  If they are not selectable, how am I supposed to add a printer?

  I have a printer Laser of Brother DCP-7065DN.  When I connect it via USB, it does not appear.  All ports operate. (I checked quad).  The cord works with my other printer (a Canon MX860), is not the power cord.

  Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated!

  Visit brother support website and search for the latest driver. Download and install, and then try again.

  Hello

  Vender ID - 59788.

  I'm not able to add paypal info. It crashes me to add my first app before 11.

  Special characters I only there is "/" and ",".

  Remove the two and save deletes the error but does not really save address

  (Perhaps because the India has no defined States and validation seems to be stuck).

  Even with this temporary change of address (which survives no disconnection/connection but removes the address 1 error).

  by clicking on any Reroute tab tab information from the seller.

  Well well please please do not use google chrome everything first.

  use firefox or internet explore. clear the cache and it will work perfectly.

  one last thing, if you tried 5 times, then you must update the next day, it won't work not today.

• Not able to add the snapshot file to the virtual machine

  We have Win 2003 virtual machine running on ESXi 4.0.0 261974. The virtual machine has two vmdk files. We had taken the snapshot a few days back and today by mistake, we have removed one of the vmdk (DB - srv - 000001.vmdk - snapshot file). Now, we are not able to add the snapshot file to the virtual machine. When tried to add the existing vmdk, it displays only the source disk (DB - srv.vmdk). Please, help us to solve this problem.

  The GUI allows only adding the base vmdk. To add the Flash disk, you must manually change the vmx file. Registrations for the formerly removed virtual disk could still exist in the vmx file with... .present = "FALSE". After changing the vmx file you must reload the configuration. To do this, remove the VM of the inventory and add it back again (right-click on the vmx file).

• Not able to scan from the printer to my computer control panel using the HP Photosmart 5510

  Hello

  I recently bought the new HP Photosmart 5510 all in one - and I am not able to scan from my printer to my computer.

  I am however able to scan by launching the scan of the computer. I talked to HP customer earlier this evening and we ran printing + scan doctor and can't find any problems.

  I am running Windows 7-64 bit and that you have installed my wireless printer using the Installation CD supplied with the printer today.

  I could not finish troubleshooting with the technician that I talked to because I had to go to work. The person that I spoke with proposed possibly the full functionality of software downloaded from the hp.com site, which I'm happy to do, but I think that it is useless, because I have the CD of installation here. (The rep that I talked to was very nice, but I prefer not to have to uninstall and reinstall if it is not necessary)

  Because as I mentioned above, everything works perfectly and I am able to scan - but not directly from the printer itself.

  When I try to scan from my printer to my computer an error message appears on the control panel of the printer indicating that: there is no scan destination options of analysis chosen / no..

  However, I can't find anywhere with my HP software where I could add / make sure that the destinations were there. (As I could on my other printers. (IE. By the solution Center)

  This printer does not appear to be a solution center that I could find and the scanner installed with the CD icon doesn't give me any options regarding changing the settings of the parser

  I wonder:

  1. the Hp Photosmart 5510 does not have the capacity to scan from the printer control panel?

  2 OR the CD installation provided with my printer only has the base drivers as the agent of tech support suggested? Which means to scan from my printer I need to download drivers for your hp Web site?

  3. or is the problem because of something else entirely?

  Thanks for your help!

• Windows 7 can not find the driver for shared printer hp LaserJet 3380

  When I try to add a shared printer on my laptop Windows 7, as a network printer, Windows 7 it locates on the network successfully, but I get the following error messages:
  Windows cannot find a driver for hp LaserJet 3380 PCL 6.
  The file ' *. INF' (unknown) is needed.

  The printer is connected to a desktop pc XP on my home network.

  I tried to attach the printer locally via USB to the Windows 7 laptop and loaded correctly the printer drivers and I printed it. But when I reconnected it the printer on the XP computer I got the error again.

  It is shared, not a network, printer, in order to put up with the TCP - IP option does not work.

  This printer successfully under Vista. I did a clean install of Windows 7.

  Thanks for any help you can provide.

  The name of the 32-bit driver is different from the name of 64-bit driver.  You create a Local Port which will basically copy the formatted print data from the part of xpmachine.

  This is the KB how to perform this task
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/282842

  on Windows 7
  Add a printer
  Local printer
  Add to the local path
  \\XPMACHINE\printersharename (make a word share name or you must ' "quote all)

  Select the installed driver if you have connected the USB device

  Complete the wizard
