  • C7280 - cannot scan. Error message indicates another program has control over the device

    I open the HP Device Manager to do a scan. I accepted the parameters and the scanning started. But the part passing through the analysis, I stopped the scan that I realized that I wanted to change the resolution. I leave the Manager device and rebooted but when I did, I got to tell an error message:

    'Cannot perform the function you have requested because another program has control over ice dev'.

    I have nothing else open and so I can't work on what program has control over the printer.

    The Device Manager has not been updated for Lion and there is still no specific Lion software for your printer.

    So far, you have the choice of scanning with picture Capture or preview.  I'm sorry.

  • HP Officejet scan cannot be run, error "Scan cannot be performed because another program or computer uses the network device.

    Hello everyone,

    After you have installed Windows 8 on my desk, I lost the ability to scan with HP (Officejet 8500 pro wireless) solutions Center. Wen I click on scan (rather photo or document) I get a message: "Scan cannot be performed because another program or computer uses the network device. There is a little information on the HP site. I've tried all the suggested solutions, including several install and reinstall the HP software. The printing part works very well, and I can scan with other programs directly using the WIA driver. Now I scan documents to pdf authorizing searches, who wants me that this question be set quite often. Currently, I use my laptop for that. Everything works very well with Windows 7.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks, Johann

    I contacted HP about this specific problem.  They informed me that it is an upgrade of Windows 8 that Twain issue and they do not support this problem.  Reinstall the current drivers of hp does not help.

  • Disk Defragmenter displays "Disk Defragmenter was planned with the help of another program." ScheduledDefrag task: The task image is damaged or has been tampered

    When you try to start Disk Defragmenter, a popup appears;  "Disk Defragmenter has been set with a different program.

    Disk Defragmenter is currently using customized settings created by another program. Before you change the schedule, you should remove the custom settings. "with two selections: 'Delete settings' and 'Cancel '.  By selecting a choice does not produce no result except in order to reproduce the same popup when attempting again to start the Defragmenter

    There are several reasons why the built-in function may not work. Here are a few simple repairs:

    0. it is malware on the system. Solution: Run an AV Control and also a spyware check.

    1. the disk is too full (you need at least 15% free space, sometimes 20%). Solution: Delete files unnecessary and programs until you have more than 20% free space.

    2. the disc is damaged and must be repaired. Solution: Open "My computer" and right-click on the drive you want to defragment. Select 'Properties' and click on the 'Tools' tab, select 'Check now' to check the drive for errors. Select the two options, and then click Start (it may take a long time and can restart the PC so that it can do the check at boot time).

    3 Disk Defragmenter may be damaged, requiring a restore. Solution: Open System Restore and restore to a point before you start having problems with Disk Defragmenter.

    4. Disk Defragmenter may no longer be on the system or is damaged while it needs a re - install. Solution:
    a. open the menu 'start '.
    b. type '% Windir%\Inf' in the 'Search' box and press 'Enter '.
    c. in the window that opens, find the file named "dfrg.inf.
    d. right-click on "dfrg.inf" and "install".

    5. There are other programs that run the Defragmenter interruption integrated. Solution: Close all running programs. If you think that there may be some running in the background, use Ctrl + Alt + Delete, and then select "start Task Manager". Under the 'Applications' tab, you will find a list of all running applications - you can close these by selecting "end task."

    6. If still no luck, try disabling the screen saver when you run Disk Defrag (you should very well leave the system only when running the built-in defragmentation utility).

    7. If still no go, try to run the defragmenter in Mode without failure. If she runs, something interferes with her and stalking the interference can not be easy (Note: some versions of Win 7 do not allow the built-in defrag utility is running in safe mode.) If your does not, let's say that defrag is disabled mode safe.)

    You should consider to download a free trial of a commercial defragmentation tool.

    Here is a link to a Top 10 reviews of the best defrag programs side-by-side comparison:

    http://Disk-Defragmenter-software-review.TopTenReviews.com/

    You can click on the product and it will give you details on its performance, features, how he did on the exam, etc.

    Top Placer will automatically Defrag in the background and the gold medal prevents fragmentation before it happens and can instantly defragment the fragments of leaves who eats to get.

    Most of the programs featured offers free trials so you can try them and see what they do for you.

    Good luck!

    PS: There are more radical actions to repair you can do. These generally handle most situations, but if not let me know and I'll post the other options as well.

  • Windows cannot uninstall this program, because another program is being installed.

    I use Vista Home Basic Edition on Sony Vaio

    When I try to uninstall QuickTime player (or any other program) I get a message saying "the program cannot be uninstalled because another program is being installed. Please wait for the program to complete the installation and try again. »

    I'm not busy to install all programs and no matter how many times I reboot my computer, I still get the same message.

    The reason why I want to uninstall quicktime (and all associated software Apple) is that I am trying to install iTunes on my laptop (to work with my iPod) but get a message saying that the installation cannot be performed because I need Quicktime Player.  I have quicktime on my laptop and it works, so they told me to uninstall and remove all Apple programs and then install iTunes.

    Problem is just that I can't seem to uninstall all the programs.

    I tried to fix this by removing the quicktime in my program files. And when I try install quicktime again once I get the same message saying that I have to wait for another installation program before you continue the installation of quicktime.

    At this point, I'm ready to try and "restore default settings", even if it means losing a lot of data. I just put the files I want to keep and restore my laptop. If it works I will, because I don't see otherwise.

    The Publisher of the registry (regedit.exe), navigate to the following key:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress

    and delete the entries that you can find.

  • Need to backup all programs and files without the System Image

    Hi all

    Recently, I myself in a dilemma. I installed 4 additional disks with the intention of creating a RAID volume supported by the BIOS. To do this, I need to change the BIOS setting of the controller which includes all the volumes, including my boot drive (that I don't intend to RAID). The problem I have is that when I pass the UEFI to RAID controller, Windows Recovery will not use the System Image I did. He said that the volume was created under a different arrangement (Bios vs. EFI).

    What are my options? Is there a different backup setting, which allows to keep all my installed software? I am not concerned with the data that I can copy it to an external volume, but it would take several days to get all of my software reinstalled. I would like to avoid this. I guess I'll have to reinstall Windows Pro 8.1 and then use a backup program to restore everything. If this is the case, then I need to know which backup program will work. If there is a better way, I would like to know. I see my options in the form, get another backup program, get a map of controller for the boot drive or the RAID volume or just reinstall.

    Thank you

  • The HP imaging device not found... Error 8 [(1, 0,-2147024770)]

    -New installation of Windows 7 64 bit with all the updates of Windows installed.

    -HP OfficeJet Pro L7500 connected via ethernet / DHCP.

    -I get the following error message after you install the full version of the software:

    The HP imaging device not found...  Error 8 [(1, 0,-2147024770)]

    -Two other computers on the network, they get the error and can scan

    Troubleshooting steps already taken:

    1. uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version full

    2 carried out allong uninstall_L3 and uninstall_L4 with a reboot and reinstall about 4 times.

    3 sanning via 'Paint' works very well.

    4. the 'Windows Image Acquisition' service is started.

    5 Windows firewall is turned off.

    6. print jobs.

    7 watch Jet Pro L7500 Office properly in the device under "Imaging devices" Manager

    Nice try, but this isn't an answer very nonsense similar to most of the HP answers I've seen on the forums.

    -J' already have the l3 uninstall and reboot, as already indicated in my original post.

    -L' computer already has the latest version of Flash - over this software has nothing to do with communicating with the scanner.

    -The software is already downloaded from HP.

    However, I have repaired and it is perhaps what made him.  I'm not positive:

    -J' ran 'bpd_scan_Carrier.msi' which is in the folder "setup\bpd_scan" by right-clicking and choosing "update".

    -J' also ran "BPDSoftware.msi" which is in the folder "setup\bpdsoftware" by right-clicking and choosing "update", but I don't think that it did.

    -J' have also installed the Photosmart program but I don't think that that had nothing do with it.  When you run HP diagnostics program, it is said that what needs to be installed for scannig work.

    Thanks HP for all the major recommendations, I read in aid groups...    It is sarcasim in case your wondering you.

  • Why I am constantly a message saying that another program has changed the metadata?

    I get all the time on the images. I've never used other programs. And I can't find a way to each work on why I get the message. Also, I don't know whether to choose settings to import from disk or to replace the settings because I have not actually used another program. To add to the problem, I can't find a way to add a response to all of the photos at once and thousands seem to be affected. Ideas anyone? Windows 7, just upgraded to 6 of Lightroom, but it happened with Lightroom 3, 4 and 5 as well.
    2016-02-20_120120.jpg

    You use Bridge or Adobe Camera RAW?

    If you use another program other than the latest version of LR, LR 3,4 and 5.

    Choose a version of LR and stick to it. Then once you know that you have all of your presets and other custom settings carried over to LR 6, you must uninstall at least versions 3 and 4

    You can select all the images made and click on the exclamation mark (!) in one of them. You must select in the grid view not in the film strip to apply the changes to all of those at once.

  • How to download the program Volume control for the taskbar

    Where can I get the installer of the volume control for my taskbar. I've triedControl Panel >sounds and Audio devices > check "Place Volume in the taskbar icon .

    When I check the box for "place volume icon in the taskbar" it gives me an error and says "Windows cannot display the control volume on the taskbar because the Volume control program has not been installed. To install it, use Add/Remove programs in Control Panel.

    Where can I get the program from?

    You mention that your netbook is HP. Most of the HP products have a recovery partition. If this is the case:

    -Click Start-> Run

    -Type in cmd

    -Type in the following, substitute the C:\ and D:\ readers with your partition recovery and partition system respectively:

    Expand c:\i386\sndvol32.ex_ d:\windows\system32\dllcache\sndvol32.exe

    -Press enter, and then type:

    Expand c:\i386\sndvol32.ex_ d:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe

    -Type exit and press ENTER.

    Your Volume control should now be restored. You can check this by opening the sound and Audio Control Panel devices and by checking the box to the volume icon to Place in the taskbar.

    If your problem is not solved or there is no such thing as a recovery partition after the return

    Hope this helps

  • Impossible to uninstall programs in Control Panel

    I'm in the Control Panel, try to uninstall programs. There are several programs that I can't uninstall. When highlighting these programs do not give me the button uninstall or the buttons change or repair. They show the name of the program and the size of the program. They take place on my hard drive and I do not use them. Even when I go to remove the icon, it opens a window which says removing the icon, it is not uninstall the program. How is it, I can't uninstall these programs?
