With the help of a wireless printer with a laptop and desktop PC.
I just bought a laptop wireless windows 7 and use a router to connect to my older vista desktop that has HP deskjetpro8500 on it. Should I upgrade my Vista to windows 7 and my printer upgrade then? I'll be able to also use the fax, scanner and copier on the new laptop once I update the printer? What is my best option?

OK, unplug the USB cable from your printer and your PC. Leave the telephone line connected like that.
Now, to get an Ethernet cable (it looks like a large telephone cable) and plug it in between your router and the printer. An alternative is to connect to the wireless printer, but it will have to have the wireless option. This subtemplate is (a909a, n b or g)?
After connecting the printer, click Start > Control Panel > devices and printers and delete all old instances of the printer, then:
1. make sure the printer is on and connected to your network. Verify that you can access the printer's internal web page by accessing its IP address before continuing. (the IP address can be found on the network menu of the printer)
2. click on > start > Control Panel > devices & Printers.
3. click on add a printer
4. Select local printer
5. Select create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port, and click Next.
6. under device type, select TCP/IP Device. Under the name of host or IP address, enter the IP address of the printer. Click Next.
7. Select Hewlett-Packard in the list of manufacturers and select and select your printer model. Click Next.
If your printer model is not in the list, then select disk provided, browse the CD that came with your HP printer and select the first file begins with hp and ending with INF. click Open, then OK. Select your printer model. Click Next.
8. If prompted, use the driver that is currently installed.
9. He will ask the name of the printer - enter a new name or use the one existing. This will be the name of the printer that you select from other applications.

I can also print wireless from our various iPads & iPhones (after the change of the printer WiFi).
But I don't see how I can 'Add' laptop (Windows Vista) daughter & my main desktop computers (Windows XP), so they can print wireless too!
Does anyone know how to do this?

Hi & thanks,
I also found a solution to install my printer HP LaserJet Pro P1102w wireless & connecting then 2nd, 3rd & subsequent laptop/desktop computers.
I initially reset the printer to remove any configuration, then I did the following:-
Install on a laptop using a CD or could start simply by connecting the USB cable to the laptop. Follow the instructions, test the characters etc. (to prove that the wireless network is configured correctly)).
Check printing wireless since this laptop computer 1 initial works, & also works various iPad/iPhone etc.
Problems have been met when try to get other laptops/workstations to print wireless (2nd & later).
The following seemed to work: -.
On the other portable computers desktop (do not plug printer with USB cable): -.
(1) the installation of the CD,
(2) choose the series w1100 - Wireless install,
(3) choose to install the printer software (& display the Guide of the user if want),
4) click Add another printer (option 1).
(5) choose HP LJ P1100w Pro Series.
(6) choose option 3 (to connect to a network configured wireless (that established earlier),
(7) following, a lot of software is installed,
(8) identify the printer by choosing the method to identify it (select in a list),
(9) side of firewall pinhole (all).
(10) looking for printer, concludes HP LJ Pro P1102w,
(11) then the TCP/IP data has been: -.
IP 192.168.2.46
Subnet 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.2.1Host Name NPI1C754F
(12) (stupid 'password required' kept appearing several times - X box to close),
(13) to enable direct printing,
(14) then,
Finally success! A test prints to computers/idevices like many that I could find.
Thank you very much. I hope the above can help someone else!

I have problem with Muse files when you work at home with my laptop and when I open the files again in my work with my IMac.
I do: when I am uncomfortable with the laptop I save the files on the laptop, then on my external hard drive. Then, when I'm at work, I opened the drive, but the Muse says every time, that so many links in the 'active' is missing. And it takes a lot of time to get all the missing link. Like today I had to open a file of Muse from the external hard drive, and there are about 100 links that are missing.
How can I solve this problem
the best thing if you are a user of creative cloud is to store the files in a folder in your account of cloud instead of transferring the files from one computer to another.
If you are not a Subscriber cc then Dropbox or iCloud will work as well.

I've owned Lightroom since it was released when I paid $316,94 for her. I bought the 2.0 for $103.95 update, then update 3.0 for $69.30 (on another account accidentally) and then joined the CC full suite. Our Canadian dollar began to decline in value and I didn't feel that the subscription has been good value more, especially since I'm more a clean user of Photoshop and CS5. I found that Lightroom is useful once again and so I bought last year updated for $88,48 USD and the product has glitches but I used it.
Recently, I had to install on my Samsung laptop and found, I had to deactivate the license on my desk to use, and I find this pain connection and disconnection, since I do not have the foresight to know when to sign physically out of my office before I use my laptop. Going to the Adobe store earlier, it does not allow me to buy another license upgrade for my second computer while the 'old' version of Lightroom was fine with me on my laptop and desktop. I do not have a heavy user for a few years, but I start to have some interest in my work and need the laptop and the computer. Adobe authorized a second upgrade license, am I expected to buy a full version new or I just go to Corel whose entire suite is less than the Lightroom upgrade?
Again, I am mostly a Photoshop user and really need Lightroom to catalogue and cropping for final prints only selections, and it seems a little extreme that I cannot use my license on one computer at any time, why not the second? I think Adobe is assuming we all have easy access to the internet and a wi - fi connection, and that Canadians want to pay twice as much for Adobe products as everyone else. I installed two trials of Corel since they're cheaper reunited to form a new owner even a Lightroom update still less a total of the purchase, and so far they have integration with Photoshop and the feature settings of catalog, just I don't like not having to learn how to use when I already own another product.

both my laptop and desktop the same ISP, why and how can I fix
Why does my computer laptop and desktop pc have the same Internet service provider and how to fix it
Hello, your ISP is your Internet service provider. It is Bell Canada, Rogers, Telnet, etc. of Telus. Unless you want to have two companies providing your internet connection, you can not fix this. Your IP address is also the same thing of having 1 service provider. Your Internet provider assigns you an IP address. Depending on the provider, if you unpluf your router, it may be renewed.

If I get an individual membership to CC on my laptop and desktop, so go ahead and but a new laptop that I am able to transfer to the new laptop or what happens in this situation?
You can install it on as many machines as you want. You are limited to be able to have only two machines activated at any given time. You can sign in and out at the need to activate different machines. If you try to connect to a third machine, while two other machines are already concluded then you will be asked if you wish to have the two disconnected to allow one to be signed again.

on this subject and on the tab of the driver is version. Now, click on update drivers (who are unable to do anything as MS
is far behind the pilots of certification). RIGHT click on the camera - UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it
will update the driver stack.Now, go to the system manufacturer's website and download the latest driver for the camera and the other related camera
software (if not more recent get the same).Download - SAVE - go to them and RIGHT CLICK - RUN AS ADMIN - reboot after each driver.
Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
