• Problem with Windows Fax and Scan does not connect to the Internal Modem

  Just got a new Acer Aspire 5542-5416 computer laptop with Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium, 4 GB of Ram and a 320 GB hard drive. It has a 56 k modem integrated fax of like the old days, but I can't make it work. The laptop did not come with the Windows CD.

  If I open the program Windows Fax and Scan, it is not able to connect to the modem. Basically, if I click on tools > fax accounts > Add..., I get a box with 2 choices: to connect to a fax modem or connect to a fax on my network server. When I want to connect a fax modem I get a message that says: an error has occurred. Please, try the operation again later or contact your administrator. It allows me to do this then just clock OK and them I'm right where I started.

  While in Windows Fax and Scan, if I click on tools > fax settings... nothing happens. No menu settings or anything ever appears. Quite simply, the program does nothing. If I try tools > Fax Status Monitor... I get a box that says entrance exam status, ready to receive a fax. It has a blue progress bar as something takes over, but it gets about 1/100 to and never goes further or ends. There is no box, but there are 3 buttons: view details, answer call or cancel. If I hit details, I get an empty list. If I click on answer call I get an error that says that the fax service is not available.

  If I try tools > Options, general tab has only a single option box is checked: play a sound when come it to new messages. If I try to print a Word or PDF file to a fax using Fax in the printer list, I get the same box with 2 choices: to connect to a fax modem or connect to a fax on my network server, but I get the same error message: an error has occurred. Please, try the operation again later or contact your administrator.

  I've searched the Internet high and low for a solution but no luck. There is a lot of discussion about this problem, but none of the solutions work for me. If I go to Device Manager, the modem is working properly and if I click on the Modem query on the Diagnostics tab, it seems to be able to communicate with the modem very well. I tried to roll back the driver and updated again and still no luck, same problem. If I go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fax\Accounts in the registry, there is no subkeys under the folder accounts I can delete.

  Has anyone else had a similar problem? Is there any solution for this? I did a Windows Update last night and has not yet solve it. Thank you.

  Sorry about that.

• Windows Fax and Scan will not add an account to my internal Fax Modem

  I tried all the work around listed Forums and Windows Fax and Scan will not add an account to my internal fax modem. The Modem is recognized by Windows 7 and test very well. I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.

  Hello michgaud,

  To set up a fax server

  1. Before you begin, make sure that your computer is connected to the network and you know the network address of the fax server (for example, \\mycompanyfaxserver).

  2. Click the button start , click programs, and then click Windows Fax and Scan.

  3. To use the fax mode, click fax at the bottom of the left pane.

  4. Click the Tools menu and then click Fax accounts.

  5. Click Add, and then, in the Fax Configuration Wizard, click on connect to a fax on my network server and follow the instructions.

  Check the following settings:
  In Windows Fax & scan settings, open tools/Fax and under the general tab.
  Look at the 'Fax select device".
  Your modem is listed here?
  You have the, "allowed to send and/or receive" selected?

  This setting should be checked and selected until all accounts are created.

  You can watch the post following TechNet with a suggestion that might help with your problem.

• Windows 7 and bios sees not the hard drive, but when I connect the hard drive to the USB with an adapter, I see directories and files

  Original title: windows 7 and bios does not see the hard drive. but when I connect the hard drive to the USB with an adapter, I see directories and files... Ive a hp Pavilion, what to do?

  Check the BIOS for hard drive setting.

  Make sure that you do not connect the drive to a SATA/RAID port.

  Old IDE drives - check the jumper on the drive (use "Cable Select" as a starting point), the BIOS must also be set in legacy/compatibility/IDE mode. Note: If you currently use the AHCI mode, then switch to IDE mode may cause Windows to boot.

• I try to run windows update and it will not update gives error code 80070005

  I try to run windows update and it will not update gives error code 80070005, I also ran fix and it tells me that it is fixed but it is not getting the same error code when I try to update after running it help please?

  Hello

   
   
  
  1. which Microsoft Fixit did you?

  2 have you installed new hardware or software before the show?

  3. who is the antivirus installed on the computer program?

  4 update you are trying to install?

  5. are you logged on as administrator on the computer?

  
  If this isn't the case, I suggest you to log on as an administrator and check for the issue.
   
  Method 1:
  One of the other reason for the 80070005 error is caused by software running on your computer security.
  Temporarily disable the security software on the computer and see if that makes a difference.
  Disable the anti-virus software
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software
  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
   
  Method 2:
  I suggest you perform the steps described in the article:
  Error: 0x80070005 when you try to install updates by using Microsoft Update or Windows Update
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/968003
  This problem may occur if access is denied when accessing or copying files during the process of Windows Update or Microsoft Update. Access may be denied if you have logged on to the computer as a standard user and this account does not have permission to install updates. I suggest you to follow the steps and check if it helps.

• Windows 8 blue tooth does not connect devices

  Hi, Windows 8 blue tooth does not connect devices

  1 - Adding devices is interrupted and the phone always appears offline.
  2 and in the bluetooth icon (bottom right of the screen) the option 'allow a device to connect' is never on/available.

  I tried with multiple devices and they are all perfectly between them, has never worked with the computer! Who have already tried with the (uninstalled) disabled antivirus and it worked too!

  Hope you will reply soon

  Best regards

  Hi JPCR,

  It seems that Samsung has not yet released the compatible Bluetooth drivers for Windows 8. So, you can try to install the drivers in compatibility mode and check out. Here is the link where you can download the drivers for Windows 7.

  http://www.Samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/NP300E5A-A01UB

  Follow the steps to install in compatibility mode:

  a. right click on the driver installation file and select Properties and then tap or click on the compatibility tab.

  b. check the box run this program in compatibility modof e.

  c. press or click the menu drop down and select a previous operating system, and then tap or click OK.

  Reference:

  Make the programs more compatible with this version of Windows

• Windows 8 and Samsung Stratosphere USB connection

  I have upgraded to Windows 8 and now when I connect my Samsung stratosphere using the USB connection, it does not show in Windows Explorer. Is there a setting I need to change in Windows?

  I ended up test a different cable that I had and it works now. It's very discouraging that the problem was the cable since I have two of them received the same day. But I guess that's a lesson learned.

• iPhone and iPad does not connect to internet

  Hello

  Since yesterday, I was unable to connect to internet via wifi on my iPad and iPhone.  They show the power of the full signal and says I'm connected, but won't load Web pages or refresh applications.  When I disable wifi on my phone everything works fine on the LTE, but I don't want to use my data.

  I think it must be something with the update iOS because:

  -J' completely rebooted our router and modem and it worked on my iPad for about 30 seconds (what makes a Web page) before it stopped working again.

  -My boyfriend did not the last update on the iPad or iPhone, and both connect on our wifi at home, while my iPad or iPhone will connect to the internet.

  -My iPhone also does not connect to the wifi in my work, even though I know it works as I am online on my computer work via wifi.

  I noticed something strange on my iPhone and iPad when I went to check the settings wifi yesterday - the VPN configuration is flashing/refreshing without touching me, even if I don't have everything set up VPN connections.  When I actually click on VPN, an error is displayed.  There may be something wrong with the VPN on the new update which blocks the wifi signal?

  
  

  I really appreciate your help!
  

  If you are able to connect your iPad and iPhone to your wireless router agreement but the iPad and iPhone will not connect to internet, it is unlikely to have anything to do with the version of iOS.

  Try this:

  Restart your router (unplug unit, wait ten seconds and then reconnect it).

  Wait for the router shows all lights normal and connected.

  Now, reboot your iPad or iPhone

• Always send/receive texts even if my data is turned off (and I am not connected to wifi)?

  I'll be getting an iPhone 6 s at the end of next month. 64 GB with 3 concert data (it's cheaper for me to upgrade and stay on the plan from my parents as it is for me to make my own plan). In terms of my parents, I already have a plan of SMS and minutes for my current phone (a cursor). The 6s be my first official smartphone. There is already a plan of texting in place, and the extra thing only reason I pay is the data plan.

  But I was just wondering (and I know it's a stupid question)... can I still send/receive text messages as I would with a smartphone not (and make calls and others), even if I have my data off AND I am NOT connected to wifi?

  Yes.

  SMS text messages using your cellular operator's voice communication channels.  They do not use the data.

  However, if you use iMessage, who would use the data.  So keep that off.

• Why my windows freeze and go does not respond when I try to install the msn photo on hotmail download tool?

  Why my windows freeze and go does not respond when I try to install the msn photo on hotmail download tool?

  The active x bar descends into the small window and freezes all windows open right there and will not respond. This happens when I open a new message and try to attach photos.

  Things I tried but has not made a difference:

  reinstalled IE 8, deleted the history of the browser, disk Cleanup, removed msn photo upload control, optimized IE8

  With xp media center

  PS. This occurs also at any time the information down to install an active x on any site control

  The only way to surf now with frustration is to use IE 8 NOT add optional

  So I fixed that on my own and that's how I did it.

  You must uninstall IE 8 completely which will bring you to IE 7 (in my case) and then install IE 8 via the site updates or microsoft.

  Uninstallin IE 8 by going to:

  Start--->

  Control Panel--->

  Add Remove programs--->

  Scroll down to IE 8--->

  Click on delete.

  IE8 updates must be removed also, if not then click the box 'To see the updates' on the top of the window to scroll down, look for the IE 8 security updates and delete.

  Resart your computer and install IE 8.

  This worked for me and may or may not work for you.
