Internet Explorer works fine, but other programs may not connect to Internet

I have problems on my PC where, in updates of programs and windows try to connect to the internet, I get an error saying that I am not connected to the internet.

My laptop works fine if my internet connection is not the problem.  Internet Explorer works fine however when I launch a program like steam, or when I try to download a patch to Warcraft or even Windows Update I get error messages saying that I can not connect.

I tried to turn the Windows Firewall and antivirus off but still no joy.

Run the Norton removal tool and see if that helps. Autour Googling shows a lot of links by using the keyword "uninstall Norton broken Internet Vista". Some people report success after you run the removal tool.

  • Photosmart 6520: printer is fine but the scanner will not connect to the printer

    Since the update to windows 10 my printer works fine, but my scanner is not connecting to my computer!  I tried looking for updates as suggested, but it goes on to say that he didn't... Please help its driving me crazy!  Thank you

    Hi @queenbee12,

    Looks like the scan drivers may not have been installed correctly. Please, try the steps in this document to see if it helps. Skip step 3, because it is the different software for your model. Let me know the results of step 5.

    HP printers - a Communication or connection error is displayed when scanning.

    In the workarounds section scan, try these applications to see what results you have.

    If the driver is installed correctly, you should be able to use the Capture and scanning HP.

  • OfficeJet pro 8600: printer works fine, but the software is not

    Printer works fine.

    However, the HP support the program "HP OfficeJet Pro 8600" will not start. I can see it in the HP folder under all programs, but clicking on the program name has no effect. The program name poins to "C:\Program HP HP Officejet Pro 8600\Bin\HP Officejet Pro 8600.exe" - UDCDevicePage Start

    In addition, in devices and printers in Control Panel, the printer connected displays. By double clicking on the icon takes me to...

    Opening HP All - in - One Printer Remote takes me to the window right... but the printer shows offline, and the various functions (scan, fax, etc.) are not available. (As noted, the printer is currently online, and I can print correctly.

    Connection to the wireless printer.

    All these functions work fine if I call them from the physical control on the front of the printer Panel.

    I don't know if these are two separate issues, or the two aspects of the same problem.

    Any thoughts?

    Thank you.

  • PS and LR produce bad impressions, but other programs are not...

    It's a little long, because I did a bit of investigation, but I can't solve my problem and I need help:

    I had a nice workflow that I have used for years.  I'm sure that many of you would find a bit tedious and I will not go into the details of it, but the important part is that I always printed on Photoshop (Extended CS6 - now at 13.0.3 - Yes, I have the window trial stupid bug, but that's another matter).  My monitors are profiled (no printer profile custom, but I have downloaded profiles suitable PixelGenius for times where I need them, and with my management of colors, my impressions were quite specific.)  I use and Epson Stylus Photo R2880 and I was very happy with it.  I work mainly on an iMac 24 "(millésime 2009)."  Recently, I decided to change my work flow based entirely on some of the tutorial videos that I bought of LL.  I decided that I was ready to integrate much more LR in the workflow, especially now that he understands the proofing.  Due to the new workflow I was really looking forward to printing off LR.  Who should you get more or less current.

    So far, I haven't printed with my new workflow and I would say that I haven't printed anything since 13.0.1 on PS and LR 4.1 (not that I was printing from LR at the time).  Having not printed in a while, I knew that I needed a head cleaning (of course I did) and, as is my habit, once the head was clean, I printed (from LR) a 4 x 6 image I had planned on printing to a larger size.  It collects all persistent grime after a cleaning.  Printing doesn't look just right for me (too dark and the colors were a bit wide).  I met with wrong colors prints once before, and it turned to be a driver problem.  In the process, I found a large image that is indicative of a certain type of problem and I keep the good and bad prints of hand... just in case.  I decided to print this picture, and of course, it came out looking like the standard version craptastic I was getting into with the bad long time driver.  Just to check that it had to do with my new process, I printed the picture of the PS (which worked fine the last time I printed this image). Also, it came out all wrong (the same as LR all wrong).  Since the bad impressions looked like the old 'bad driver' impressions, I thought I knew what was going on and worked with Epson to reset my printing pipeline and reinstall my printers (I also have a workforce of 845 for printing "throw" and for my wife to use).

    With new installs for my printers in place I went ahead and printed again... and once again, it came to pass badly.  I was, to say the least, discouraged.  As a last test of consistency, I loaded the image up in Nikon Capture NX2 (version 2.3.1) and did a print using the same color profile.  All of a sudden feel perfect.  It is my 'good' old prints and, equally important, was a Dead Ringer for the image on the screen. At this point, I guess that for some reason any LR and PS not correctly color managed.  I thought they were ignoring my selection of color profile and let the printer manage printing from the native color space (ProPhoto RGB) or.  To test this, I set up printing in PS (same image), but took a very strange color profile (Nikon DBase for v3.0.0.3002 of the NAVE).  It's odd how radically a color profile that I could find (the colors are mapped to completely different areas).  I was hoping that printing would be unchanged, but unfortunately he is out with the weird mapping that provides this profile.  It is so drastic a change, I have a hard time assessing whether it is 'off', as the other impressions are.  What is apparent is that PS at least (I have not tried in LR), it's actually reproducing along the pipeline of printing color information.  This does not explain why LR and PS of 'bad' impressions but not Nikon Capture.  This is where I am.  Apparently the color management is broken in my Adobe products, but works very well in my Nikon software.  I'm a bit of a loss. I'm sure I'm printing off LR and especially PS, correctly to 99.999999999%.  Anyone have any ideas?  I'd like to be able to print again. Impression of Capture NX2 is really not a good option.

    Thanks in advance,

    David

    Just to close it entirely, I just got the phone with Epson and they confirmed that if you have PS or LR color management, EVERYTHING must disengage in the printer including the option of 16-bit driver.  You will always get 16-bit printing via the PS color management.  Apparently the option "Off (no correction color)" and the 16-bit box operate independently of the driver and if one is on there as a conflict with a managed utility printing color.  I just wanted that along.

    Thanks again for all the help,

    Dave

  • BlackBerry Z10 a Z10 works fine, the other one has trouble connecting to the mobile network

    Hi, my wife and I have the Z10, and we're both on the same mobile network (Wind Mobile to the Canada). Z10 wife seems to have no problem connecting or staying connected to Wind Mobile. Mine on the other hand seems to randomly drop the connection, or struggled to get connection and sometimes ends homelessness.

    The only difference between the two of the Z10 is its is purchased through Wind Mobile itself, it is locked to their network at the moment. I bought mine a little later and I bought mine directly via the webshop of Blackberry, and it's why, mine is unlocked. What I have to do sometimes is to disable the mobile connection and turn it back on and it works after I do this. However, it is annoying, as I would rather automatically retry the network connection so that it is not go roaming in my own city.

    It is possible that a new sim card can help. Worth a try. I'm guessing, however, that, since one is that she has the ability to see other networks when the locked is not unlocked.

    That said, I use a unlocked Z30 and don't have these problems. Try a new sim card and see what happens.

    all the site went "not found HTTP 404 error. The requested resource is not found. "and the"Firefox cannot load Web sites but other programs can"page is not help somehow

    One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    installed a keyboard and wireless mouse and the mouse works fine, but the keyboard types the wrong keys! Any ideas? Thank you

    Wired or wireless - is usually not serious unless the wireless can get more interference.  If the keyboard is close to the receiver which is connected to the computer and you get the strikes hurt - my suggestion is to try first the keyboard on another computer.

    To do this, * not * require you to install specific drivers.  Simply unplug the combo of a computer and in the other and see if the keyboard works correctly.  Then, you can troubleshoot from there.
