  • Moved from Office Windows 7 from one room to the other and now it cannot find the wireless network

    Hello world

    I have a HP Pavilion running Windows 7.

    He was hooked through the ethernet in a single room.

    I moved it to another room where there was no inflexible access, so I relied on the use of our wireless network.

    Now, the computer will not even find the wireless network.  When I have the help, it says "no available connection."

    In the center of the network, selecting wireless has a red X to the left of the green signal bars.

    At first, I wondered if maybe the computer was in a "dead point" in our House, but I've put a laptop beside him and he found the thin wireless network.

    Any help?

    Update: I tried system restore and tried to stop/resume knowledge network locations, but to no avail.

    Here is the info on my card wireless directly from HP site:

    Original driver for the solutions of Dualband network Atheros 802.11 Wireless Module a/b/g/n.

    I found what I think, it's their website, (http://www.atheros.cz/atheros-wireless-drivers.php), but surprise... they only model # s, my info does not.  Ugh.

  • OfficeJet 4500: Capture and scanning Hp cannot find the device

    I can print on my printer without a problem, but when I tried to run Capture and scanning HP, he invited to select a device and then could not find it. I even entered the IP address and it says that no device was found.

    When I ran everything in a remote printer, it says the printer status is unknown.

    I have something to him printed literally just 5 minutes before.

    Thanks for any info.

    Hi @gasman00,

    Thanks for the reply.

    If you want to use HP app scanning and Capture, you must upgrade to Windows 10. In addition, scan windows is also not compatible with Windows 8.1, so this will not work.

    You don't need or the other of these applications to analyze these are alternative methods of analysis.

    You have installed full feature software?

    If you do not have the use of the software installed HP the HP printer Install Wizard. The Wizard Installer HP printer detects automatically the best print available for your HP printer driver. It is only available for Windows 7, 8 and 10. Download and run The Installation Wizard for printer a free tool from HP. When you click this link, HP printer installation wizard is downloaded using the download of your Internet browser capabilities.

    Once installation is complete, try to scan using HP Scan by following the instructions from my first post.

  • I've just updated Firefox and now can't find the 'bar', 'back' and 'next' arrows and "bookmarks." Any suggestions?

    With earlier versions of Firefox, I got an address bar at the top of the screen where you can enter a URL. It does not appear now.

    With earlier versions of Firefox, I could go back to a previous URL by clicking on a «return» arrow Similarly, I could go to a most recent URL by clicking an arrow 'forward '. I don't see the arrows.

    With the latest versions of Firefox, I could click on "Favorites" at the top of the screen to see all my favorites. With the new version, I don't have a tab "Bookmarks". If I can I find it?

    Thank you all.

    You are welcome.

  • My B8550 lights. I uninstalled and now can't find the disks to reinstall.

    I can't get my B8550 printer to turn on. I have checked all the connections, unplugged and reconnected, rebooted my computer (desktop, 64-bit, Windows 7) and it won't turn. I uninstalled it, thinking I had the disk to install it, but I'm not. How can I reinstall it and what could make it not turn on?

    Hey @sandyb1,.

    I understand that you are having problems with your Photosmart B8550 turn. I can help with that.

    First of all, we need to see if we can get the hardware of the printer.  This document will help you with your power problems. If you are able to turn on the printer, then you can download full feature software and drivers.

    If these steps allow you to turn on the printer and install the drivers please let me know and click on accept the Solution to let other users know that your problem is solved. If you are unable to turn on the printer, then it would be time to move to a newer model.

    If you have any other questions please let me know.

    I hope this helps and I hope you have a great weekend!
