Install HP freezes up

I tried to install the installation CD HP for my HP Officejet 5600 A printer on my Mac, but the Installer keeps freezing at "14 remaining items. Any suggestions?

Honestly, I never use CD if I can help it.  The software is often outdated.

Here's what I recommend:

1 do a software update (Apple menu, at the top left of your screen) again and again until there is no more.

2. open a Finder window and go to Applications > utilities > disk utility

3. Select your Macintosh HD on the left side and then click on "repair disk permissions".  Let it run until the end.

Now, reboot your Mac.

Finally, download the latest version of the software for your printer from the "Support & drivers" link at the top of this page and install it.

  • Constant, failure to update, tried for several hours technical support help, recommended full could not uninstall and reinstall, install now freezes at 74%

    No, I'm really lost and I don't know what else to do and I'm not anxious to be on technical support for several hours again.

    My problem was originally that the hotfix update released last November failed to install. I ask on the forum for help, I got some good suggestions but nothing worked. Since Photoshop still worked I've just postponed the issue.

    Several months later, I decided to try everything I can to get the update to work. Created another Admin removed tried Photoshop by reinstalling. Still no. Tried several different things that do not work.

    I finally got with technical support, I allow access to my computer. They spent several hours uninstalling and reinstalling and not as I did. They did get more advances but after almost 4 hours, I was tired of looking at Photoshop do not settle.

    They said they have done all the troubleshooting that they could, and that the best option was to simply uninstall all Adobe and then reinstall it.

    I did tonight. Following the instructions here are using the Adobe Creative Cloud cleaning tool to solve installation problems

    Now I'm stuck with freezing to 74% on installation of Photoshop. Further research led me to this Adobe CC 2015 Direct Download Links: Creative Cloud 2015 Release | ProDesignTools

    Unfortunately, at the start of the installation, it cannot connect to the internet. I know that my connection is working because I can watch sites Web, but stops install on it. I try connecting later button and he asks a serial Code. I have CC so I is not a serial Code and may not try to generate a.

    If Photoshop used to work but not to update. Now it doesn't work at all.

    I'm desperate, I need help to solve this problem. Suggestions, ideas about why this is happening and what I can do to work around it? My number is 0187559333

    Finally managed to do work. I also tried the update and it worked also. It's been a long day.

    On the downloaded installation, there is an option to install a trial version or install a licensed version. The property stored fault due to the weird internet connection being found and the absence of an activation code. But the installation of the trial worked. Has exceeded the dreaded 74% and kept things.

    The end of installation, I opened creative cloud and looked at the applications tab. The update appeared later. I clicked top and too installed completely.

    Now I just hope the trial realizes that I have a legitimate CC account and that it does not lock me in the coming days.

  • HP s 4330: cannot install Windows, freezes before restarting. [solved: chipset defective stepping]

    Hello!

    I am banging my head on the wall with this case, can not understand, how to proceed.

    My experience: I worked a few years as a computer store technician, especially on desktop computers, so at least vaguely, I know what I'm doing, and I'm very careful when handling material.

    Background of the computer: I got a used HP 4330 s after the deceased family member. No fringe, pretty clean, no damage or traces of fall release. He had dead hard disk (click), broken DVD (engine brackets bent, I am told it is a child work) and was very dusty (blocked fan). I removed the optical drive, carefully removed all the dust, replaced heat is dedicated to the Sub CPU and put inside SSD, I took my other machine (erased). In the BIOS, I went from starting EFI.

    I jumped into the USB with Windows 8.1 fresh install, which ran well, until he wanted to restart. Screen went blue/violet (same color as the background of the normal installation), and it stopped, no disk activity, nothing. I turned to bike it, Windows installation proceeds, but failed. This is repeated several times.

    Steps I took to solve the problem:

    -Legacy mode and I tried to install again, same result.

    -Memtest Ran, past, memory switched to a few specimens (DDR3 and DDR3L), tried both slots, pass all, Windows will not complete the installation.

    -Traded stock to i5 - 2520M i3 CPU I had to hang out, which has been removed from the machine work (during upgrade), same result.

    -Done everything once again, this time without the battery and using big HP 120W 85x0w charger, same result

    -Exchanged on a different disk, same result.

    -Try exchanging AC7260 network card, only to discover he is blacklisted (* beep *?), removed wifi do map altogether, no change

    -Traded thumbdrive to another, and I tried two different Windows 8.1 relies

    -Turn off all devices in the BIOS, except USB.

    -Tried to install Ubuntu, only to find out that it works perfectly, but it will not boot from EFI, had efibootmgr shows the correct entries, laptop says that it cannot find the operating system.

    -Hiren Boot CD with BartPE is Windows XP starts and works very well.

    -Check time CPU, at a time using reporting and pirometer software, it does not exceed 65 degrees Celscius in any moment, which is well below the critical temperature on both processors.

    BIOS is F47. To my surprise, it is newer than what I can find in the download page (F07?).

    Can what steps I take to close on the issue? I would leave it under Ubuntu, but I need Windows on this computer, and I'm afraid he's going to go belly up.

    Last updated.

    First of all, doughjohn - problem is not in the initiation of the stop, but it will not accomplish the closure. There is almost everything disabled except BNT kernel and the video driver.

    The problem has been very difficult to diagnose, until I found a friend who also had the same machine.

    And here's the final solution:

    Like unbelieveble as it is, all three motherboards have manufacturing defects.

    Problem is the chipset: all of them, as, as I suspected, have Cougar Point B2 chipset with SATA bug. This degrades the connection of the HARD disk. There were two clues: USB3.0 adapter SATA with Windows 8.1/10 work and fine closures. Same disk moved in the hard drive bay or optical Bay can not close correctly and works over slow (!). Second, was my friend who had same 4330 s specifications, but without problems. I disassembled the machine and to my surprise he chipset B3, with visible signs of flow around it, and fix the markings certified HP. This laptop was RMA would once. I moved my installation to his mother, and he also starts very well on SATA ports.

    This is the first (and only) for laptop with Sandy Bridge-era components that suffer from a degradation of link chipset primary HARD disk SATA lines I've seen so far.

    To sum up: HP, your fault this time.

    I sold the laptop and I'm looking for a new machine, it will probably take HP 6470 B, if I can find all the components.

    Thank you for all those that the air here and offered advice and guidance. I really appreciate your help!

  • MechWarrior 4 Vengeance installed but freezes immediately

    I reinstalled an old copy of MW4 revenge (on a new computer with Windows Vista), and whenever I open it, it freezes immediately.  To do anything, I have to go to Task Manager and he tells me that MW4 is "not responding". I tried as an administrator, as well as XP SP2 compatibility mode.  I can't find other solutions to this problem.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    The game uses what is called Safedisc. If you have not seen EULA (end-user license agreement), then it is a problem of Safedisc.  If I remember correctly when the game starts, it assumes that ask you to accept the EULA first, and then he made the verification of Safedisc.

    I believe that if you follow the steps in these two KBs, you will get the game running.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/228985

    If it did not resolve the issue or you have seen the EULA then try the steps:

    Then, I started again the Vista reinstall the CD to get the 1720 and his new HARD drive to an installation of VISTA is legitimate.  At the format of the process to reinstall the HARD disk partition, and install started.  Has been through the steps of copying, in expansion, installation of the features, installation of updates and finally successful at "completing Installation". "we sat for hours.  The HARD drive light is inactive now.  Not easy to life.  Later (at night), the screen goes black with the cursor of the mouse visible and alive.  But not Vista.  Cut off power supply and tried again.  Same result.  The VISTA reinstall stands in the last step.

    BTW, I ran a diagnosis of memory, and it was OK.

    Any suggestions for next steps?  Reinstall CD could be bad?

    Hi Mike,.

    Disconnect all external devices other than the keyboard and mouse and check if you canproceed with the installation.

    If you have more than 1 GB of RAM I suggest to keep only 1 GB of RAM, remove the extra RAM and check if you can proceed with the installation.

  • You want to uninstall Deep Freeze 6 utility after MSE installed but after the taskbar.

    Before installing Microsoft Security Essentials, I had Deep Freeze 6 utility running. To install MSE, I had to "Boot Thawed" DF. Then I run MSE to scan my PC. Several viruses and spyware were found and removed/deleted. Here are the details of my concern:

    1. After analysis of my PC with MSE, my mistake was that I have reactivated Deep Freeze 6.

    2. a few days later I realized that I have more Deep Freeze so I decided to uninstall the system, but I can't find the icon more in the taskbar or in the control panel to remove the program

    3. I spent several hours trying to find solutions to retrieve Deep Freeze so I can uninstall it, went to programs files in the folder of Faronics, attempted to manipulate the icon that I saw thinking it would work, but it does not open as in the icon that appeared previously in the taskbar

    4 tried the system restore, but because Deep Freeze has been activated, the PC goes to its original state and no restore point is created after booting up.

    5 tried to seek solutions from other sites, not a function ctl + alt + SHIFT + F6, but nothing worked.

    6. I am using Windows Vista

    Can you have solutions for me because I need to download the latest version of IE, and other files that I need for my research. Thank you.

    Hello

    You can try the following procedure:

    1. Locate the installation file you used to install Deep Freeze on your computer. By default, the name of this file is called "DF5Std.exe" for versions 5.X and "DF6Std.exe" for versions 6.X.

    2. run the Installer (DF5Std.exe or DF6Std.exe).

    3. Select the option "uninstall."

    4 Deep Freeze is uninstalled and your computer restarts.

    If this does not help, then I suggest you contact Faronics for more support.

  • Qosmio G50 - 10J - cannot install Vista Ultimate again

    Hello

    I just bought a G50 - 10J with Vista Home Premium (German) installed. I tried to install Vista Ultimate Edition (in English) and formatted the C: drive (where vista was preinstalled); When installing, it freezes at the part "Complete Installation" and after waiting an hour, black screen appears and nothing changes (I tried 3 times and still had the same problem).

    Also unfortunately I don't have the recovery CD.
    Could someone please help me load Vista again?

    New portable Toshiba does not come with recovery DVD media and the recovery image is saved on the HARD drive. This means that the laptop owner must create recovery media only.

  • Why my 8 Windows freezes on the installation?

    I bought and downloaded from Microsoft a W8Pro. I downloaded it to my HP dv6-6170br and in the middle of the instalation it freezes. Press the power button to leave the frozen instalation.

    Any help?

    Hey FAILACE,

    Just to tell you that laptop is not yet supported for windows 8. So I have no doubt that this could be a reason, you experience this problem.

    Here's my recommendation:
    (1) create a Bootable installation media (whether on a USB flash drive or a blank DVD). - http://goo.gl/CWE2J

    (2) save all data - http://goo.gl/nnCc9

    (3) update the BIOS to the latest version

    4) boot from the created media and perform a "clean" installation choose "Custom Installation" and delete all partitions and then install Windows 8 on "unpartitioned space". This will get around all that prevents the upgrade completion. - http://goo.gl/Kztml

    And to notify you to ensure and to download all the Windows 8 drivers and software for this unit from the driver download page after upgrade complete which has nothing at all at the moment.

    Now, if you have Windows 7 is still intact you might stick with it until the phone is supported. Whatever it is, it is possible to find the majority of pilots elsewhere. It will take just more work to chase them. You may lose some minor features, however.

  • Windows Update freezes

    Hey guys,.
    So I recently had a problem with XP Pro SP3 computer that works perfectly well in the normal tasks such as word processing, navigation, media, etc. I went to troubleshoot a Windows Update that I recently tried to install failed and Internet Explorer stops responding and freezes. So, here's exactly step by step what I do which creates this problem:

    (1) open upgrade from Windows (Internet Explorer then opens upwards)
    (2) Windows update site launches, but then a pop up asking to install something Microsoft is
    (3) I click on install
    (4) Internet Explorer freezes

    Every time I open just Windows Update and let is sit here, it freezes within 30 seconds. Whenever I click on do not install, it freezes. The only way to get it is to stop the process. Norton Internet Security is installed, but I created a rule to allow the updates of Windows Installer and I recently installed updates (11/15/09) last Sunday and they have installed successfully, except one which was what I tried to solve the problems.

    I already tried to re-registration of the Windows Update files, but also re-download of Windows Update and it still freezes. I am also able to navigate Internet Explorer perfectly on other sites with the exception of the Windows Update site. I ran scans and no viruses or malware were detected. The system is very healthy. Something to note is that the computer is on a domain. Please, if anyone out there has any ideas on what could be causing these constant freezes, let me know. Thank you.

    After a reset of Internet Explorer, the Windows Update site would still freeze. So what I had to do was to go to manage add-ons in Internet Explorer or disabled toolbar Norton Confidential installed Norton Internet Security was installed on the computer. After you disable the toolbar, Windows Update site showed correctly with all of the updates I needed and properly installed. It's amazing how Norton Internet Security control is same with simple and legitimate services that are necessary for your system. This is the exact reason that I do not run full software suite like NIS. Thank you for your help. Problem solved.
