I've upgraded my Mac to Monterey.  I can't log into HP Smart at all on my computer.  It does take my username and password, but it never actually logs me in.  I just get a the blue circle - see photo inserted below

Hi @DJHJ,

 

I'd like to help!

 

I understand you are unable to log in to HP Smart.

 

Try the below suggestions -

  1. Uninstall HP Smart -
  2. Try updating mac/ios and printer firmware
  3. Install HP Smart from the APP store 

1.     If installed from HP.com please delete from /Users/Username/Library/Application Support/HP Smart. Then delete HP Smart from the Applications folder and reinstall from the Mac App Store.

2.    If downloaded from the Mac App Store please remove /Users/Username/Library/Containers/HP Smart/containers.plist and then launch HP Smart from the Applications folder and go through the setup again.


Try updating mac and printer firmware
 

To update the printer's firmware, refer - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware 
 To update Mac, try these steps - How to update the software on your Mac

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

I'll keep these instructions, but the mac app -  which I didn't have to uninstall - worked today.  Thank you
