  • HP scanning error: "An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to..

     HP scanning error: “An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to.  Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only.” Dr. Google finds others with this problem.  Some claim that this is caused by an upgrade of Apple OS10 (which I did do).  One claims that HP has a "patch" for this problem. If I try to quit HP scan, it won't quit and freezes my computer. Here's the odd thing.  I have no problem scanning in a colored page from Scientific American either before or after this error (after rebooting each time), but simple black and white documents started just today to give the error message above.

    Thank you for the link however if I understood all of the instructions I would still be reluctant to try this on my own especially from a third unknown party where some of the information may be wrong and/or lost in translation. (Google translation at the end of this comment). The instructions say to uninstall the software.  So if I uninstall the original HP software am I using the original disk to reinstall and then personalize again?What about all of the updates since I originally installed the software? I found the Disk Utility but what is "gatekeeper"And I am using OS X 10.9.1 that is current because I downloaded the latest upgrade.  How would I reinstall it?And at what point do I go to the URL for the software drivers and the patch? This is just not practical for someone who is not proficient in troubleshooting applications.I switched to Apple because I don't want to have to go through this kind of process, take my time to fix the application and potentially mess up my system .  WHy should I have to try to figure out how to retrieve the normal function in this case, of my All-In-One. If it is so simple why can't HP develop the fix and make it available? Unfortunately right now I have to find an alternative to scan some important business documents that are due today. Since I am using an older printer by technology standards even though it is working fine I may be looking for a replacement and HP may no longer be at the top of my list given that the problem appears to affect other HP models. No need to answer my questions,  I'm not going to try this fix based on these instructions. Please HP provide a fix for this problem with the scanner and MAC OS X 10.9.1 compatibility! Translation of the information on the suggested link: We hereby send you a guide that should help you in solving the problem .Please carry the following: 1 Please uninstall the software again .Goto -> Programs - > Hewlett -Packard - > HP Uninstaller 2 Please repair permissions on your Mac .Go -> Utilities -> Disk Utility - > Repair Disk Permissions . 3 Please disable ' gatekeeper ' on your Mac . 4 Reinstall the full software for MAC 10.6 and patch for 10.7 / 10.8 / 10.9. HP Scanjet Software and Drivers for Mac OS X v10.6 features :http://h20566.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/swdDetails/ ? sp4ts.oid = 457 534 & spf_p.tpst = swdMain & spf_p.prp_swdMain = wsrp - navigationalState 3Di % dx % 253D % 257CswItem % 253Dsj_78355_5 % 257CswEnvOID % 253D219 % 257CitemLocale % 253D % 253D % % 257Cs wLang 257Cmode % 253D % 257Caction % 253DdriverDocument & javax.portlet.begCacheTok = com.vignette.cachetoken & javax.portlet.endCacheTok = com.vignette.cachetoken

  • This is an error from my HP scanner. How can I fix the problem? An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only.

    I recently uploaded the Maverick operating system. I wanted to scan some things on my HP Printer/Scanner and could not . This is the error message I received: An  error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to.   Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only. I am a novice with the computer and have no one to help. I hope someone knows an easy fix.
    Thank you

    This worked for me:
    "Although it is not a 'fix' for the HP issue, I did find a workaround that helped me. In the Preferences Panel in MacOS X you can pull up the Printer/Scanner preferences and scan directly from OS X. I'd not known of this prior to posting here and it worked like a charm."
    "Of course, HP should still update their software, but it's good to know that Apple has it covered for them."
    I found it here:

  • "An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check ..."

    I have the familiar Mavericks issue of failing to save scanned files from my Mac:
     "An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only."
    As far as I can see, there has been no resolution to this issue, despite reassurances dating to last fall (2013).
    The support website acts funky, too, sending me around in circles when I try to download the drivers; it may be a Safari-only problem, but still, please fix your software!

    Hi,
    What is your printer model? what Mac OS X version?
    Have you tried scanning with Image Capture or Preview?

  • I installed a HP Officejet 6500 E710n-z (Network) printer but Firefox won't let me print to it: unknown error.

    When I attempt to print or print preview I get the following message "An unknown error occurred while printing."

    If the printer is connected USB to the Windows 7 machine, what you can do is share it to the network (assuming the XP computer is also connected to the same network). This way the XP machine can see the printer on the Windows 7 computer and install it. The only drawback is that the Windows 7 computer will need to be powered on for the XP computer to be able to see and print to it. I have linked a third party site below for instructions on how to do this.

  • Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5? I want to choose "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net" but Firefox won't let me.

    In the previous version of Firefox one could choose to save tabs so that when Firefox opened, all the tabs from the previous sessions appeared. This was done in Settings > Options > General > Startup. In the menu for the "When Firefox Starts" one had the option for "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net." in Firefox 5.0, this menu is gray and not clickable. Help, please?

    ''Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5?"
    Possibly you are not saving your "browsing history" which is what the session history is tied into.
    '''Not saving History''' -- check your settings for '''Tools > options > Privacy'''', make sure you are not clearing more than just cache in "Settings for Clearing History"
    * http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
    * clearing your history at end of session, cache is the only one you would want to clear at end of session, if you don't want to lose things
    There are several things that are related to private browsing and not saving History
    * Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P
    * You selected "Never remember history" in first drop-down of Tools > Options Privacy and all of the check marks disappear (See picture above)
    * "Permanent private browsing mode" was check-marked under "Use custom settings for history" in the first drop-down of Tools > options > Privacy (see picture above)

  • HT202159 Whilst downloading mountain lion - I get in red "An error has occurred" and no ability to resume the download - amy ideas?

    I am trying to download mountain lion on to a mac pro but the message I get is just an error has occurred. any suggestions are very welcome.

    I was having this problem - I assumed it was the Apple server being overloaded, so I just kept retrying over the last couple of days.  All my apps were upto date, so was Software Update.  i tried logging out of the App Store, restarting and so on.  No joy.
    Anyway, eventually I did this, and it seems to have solved the problem.
    Sign out of the App Store (in the Store menu)
    Quit the App Store
    In Finder - Go>Go to folder...  (or Apple-shift-G)
    Paste in the following "~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore"
    It will take you to a folder.  Delete the whole folder and empty the trash.
    Launch the App Store.  Sign in and then reclick the Mountain Lion buy.  It won't charge you again.  It then started downloading.  I'm currently 5% downloaded - but I never got this far before.
    Hope this helps!
