"To install the software, you must log on as a member of the Administrators group" when you try to install the printer software

Original title: Installation software error

I am trying to install a wireless printer Canon on my new laptop Dell with Windows 8 but I get error: to install the software, you must log on as a member of the Administrators group.  I'm naïve - I'm the only person who uses this laptop and have used the one and the only password for the connection.

Solution... for me at least:

(First of all, copy the installer to a flash drive)  I use Windows 7 Enterprise and have tried many combinations to run the installation program. The bit end who works is to restart the computer, connect to the machine as an administrator or another local user on the computer that is part of the local Administrators group, THEN Rclick Installer and run as administrator.

  • ePrint 7510 does not recognize my iPad when you try to scan from printer iPad.

    The printer and the iPad are connected to the same wireless system. The iPad will print successfully to the 7510 on the wireless system, as well as by e-mail via the website of HP. The printer recognizes and list the computer from apple that was loaded with the drivers that came with the printer for analysis and sends the information scanned to this computer. Because the printer does not recognize my iPad, I tried to load the drivers on the iPad to the HP site. I received an error message saying safari can't down load the drivers. Is it not possible to scan from the printer to the iPad? Is there another procedure that works? Thank you.

    Hello

    To scan from your iPad, install and use the application of HP ePrint home & biz.

    You can initialize the app scan, scan from the front panel of the printer to an iPad is not supported.

  • Error when you try to create documents printed in HR 7

    Hello
    I created a project of WebHelp HR 7 that I try to make a PDF file for, as well. Always, an error appears when you try to generate printed documentation, even if only the PDF or Word option is enabled. 7 HR processes and builds each of the pages, index, images, etc. He arrives at the end on the status bar and an error message that it was unable to generate the PDF file.

    In the view of output, I see that he successfully treated up to the end when he says (the last four lines are the error):
    Update the Table of contents...
    Updating the Index...
    Registration of the 'GVE_Help_.doc '...
    Generation of the "GVE_Help_.pdf"...
    Could not generate PDF "(le chemin d'accès est écrit ici mais a été supprimé pour ce post) file '..."
    Unable to save the 'GVE_Help_.doc '...
    Cleaning up temporary files...

    Internal error detected, impossible to generate printed Documentation.


    Is it possible to get printed documentation to work properly in RH 7? I get the same error for all WebHelp project that I opened in HR 7. I use Windows XP and Word 2003 on my PC, if that helps. I think, but not too sure, RoboPDF is still on my PC. This could be something to do with it?

    Thank you, in advance, for any comments and help.

    Try to build just for Word and then to create the PDF file from there. There is a known problem that affects some users, but not others. Unknown cause.

    When in Safe Mode...

    • The State of plugins is not affected.
    • Custom preferences are not affected.
    • All extensions are disabled.
    • The default theme is used, without a character.
    • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored.

  • iTunes can't locate my music. When I try to play a song one get an exclamation point and the message "the song could not be used because the original file cannot be found. You want to locate?

    I don't know if I am posting this in the right place. If she must be somewhere else please let me know.

    When I try to play a song I get an exclamation point next to the song and a pop up that says: "the song could not be used because the original file cannot be found. You want to locate? »

    I use Windows 10 and iTunes version 12.3.1.

    It's the path statement where the music is currently located on my hard drive:

    If I click on a single song from within File Explorer, it opens iTunes and the song plays without problem.

    To try to solve this problem, I went in 'Advanced' in 'Préférences' and changed the iTunes media folder location to match the location of the files on my disk hard as you can see below.

    Unfortunately, it did not work either. iTunes is always gives me the same message that it cannot locate the original files. I REALLY hope someone can help me finally tried for weeks to solve this problem.

    Thank you!

  • Wave error when you try to install a content pack

    I also tried to download packs of content from a browser and their importation, but that results in the same error. The role of my account is "Super Admin" so I don't think that is the question.

    Two suggestions:

    1.) Confirm synchronization time between * nodes ALL * LI * AND * between the client browser and the server of LI - if the time is not synchronized, it can lead to this error.

    2.) reboot the LI/cluster of nodes and try again

  • When you try to print, print poster page 6 instead of 1 page even when I checked the shrink for 1 box of page. Helps nothing in the layout.

    When I try to go to print preview a web page that should pring on 1 page only, it shows that it will take 6 pages to print the web page. In page layout, I checked the therapist to adjust the width of the page box. On my laptop, s print preview the page correctly - 1. Something needs to be adjusted, but I can't find the answer when I click on file/Page Setup. Help, please.

    See this:

    Shrink to Fit only affects the width of the content, not length.

    I think that your problem has to with the size of the paper selected in prefs printer via the button's properties. Probably an odd-ball small instead of Letter or A4 or a "custom" setting If it isn't, maybe that margins are set too large or margins are "b0rked" altogether and need to be reset.

  • Computer can not detect the printer so that connected via USB

    My computer runs on Windows 7 Professional and my printer is model # D110a.

    My printer has worked fine since I got it, but a few weeks ago, my computer has been infected by a virus that forced me to reformat and reinstall everything. I installed the necessary software from the installation CD supplied with the printer, but when I try to connect my printer through the 'Add Device' option in the Configuration menu, my computer does not detect even if the printer is on and physically connected by a USB cable.

    Help please, I don't have the money to buy a new printer.

  • OfficeJet 6600: access code to the printer does not work

    Hello

    My printer used to be connected to my computer. The computer must be repaired, and I don't have the software to print on it. I downloaded it and I thought that I had everything set up, but when I try to connect my printer to the laptop computer he asked the password that I entered, and it isn't right now. It is also connected to a Windows 7 and works very well with this one.

    Hi @camicam,

    Remember that the password is case-sensitive. If you have not made any changes to your wireless password and you are unable to connect the printer to your wireless network, I suggest communicating with your router or your ISP (Internet Service Provider).

    Thank you
