Hi leon_heller, let's jump right into this! 

 

I know this might sound trivial, but have you tried uninstalling the app entirely? 

 

It'd help to also re-start your device, before re-installing it anew. 

 

Give it a go, and let me know of the results!

Thanks. I tried that but still have problems. When I first ran the app it took me to the web site to log in. I did that, left the web site and ran the app again - same thing, nothing happens! I'll let you take over my PC and try it for yourself, if you have that facility. HP did it once when I had a printer problem.
