Mac osx 10.6 will not recognize disk image of HP driver download

Wanted to scan from my HP officejet pro 8600 and send to my Mac desktop. Message said that I had to download a driver first, so I did, but now the computer will not recognize the disk imag. I don't know what to do so that the Mac will recognize the disk and allow me to install the download.

Hi @dabeck
I would like to help you install the software for your 8600 onto your Mac. Since the Mac is unable to recognize the disk image file, I would first suggest we repair the disk permissions. Please use the steps below to troubleshoot the issue;
Repair Disk Permissions
On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
Once the repair is complete, restart the computer.
Restart the printer. Now you can download and install the printer software and install it. > Officejet-Pro-8600_v12.23.0.dmg
Please let me know the outcome of these efforts. I hope to see this resolved quickly for you.
Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.

I have iMovie 09. I just erased my external hard drive, but it is still formatted for the mac. However, iMovie will not recognize the hard drive. It shows the only hard drive available is the computers. How do I get the external hard drive to show up?

In Finder's Menu, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes". (no quotes)
Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1 or 2 if there are no real files in them, and reboot.

My new MAC 10.10.3 will not recognize my Canon cameras or my Kodak camera. Help from the Geek Squad was useless.

My iMAC 10.10.3 Yosemite will not recognize any of my two Canon cameras or my Kodak camera. What's the solution?

Can you temporarily connect some other USB device to verify that your PowerBook's USB ports are in working order? Do you have another computer to which your camera can be connected to verify that a working USB connection is being made from the camera?
If we can somehow eliminate a hardware issue, then you can focus on software. Have you tried creating a new admin user account? If the new account recognizes your camera, it would narrow the problem down to something within your regular user account.

HP Pavilion DV4 DVD's will not recognize on my cd/dvd drive

Hello everyone,
Im having an issue opeing up dvd's on my drive. I found this out recently when I tryed to watch captian america on my computer it will not recognize that i have a dvd in my computer however when i put a cd with pictures or music on it it reconizes it and plays the music or shows me the pictures. Can someone help me?

Hi,
First, try the automated fixit from Microsoft on the link below.
Windows 7
Vista
Check if the drive will now play DVDs.
If the drive still doesn’t work correctly, click the Start Menu, open the Control Panel and click on Device Manager. Next click to open DVD/CD-ROM Drives. Right click the drive and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked. When the device has uninstalled click on the 'Scan for Hardware Changes' icon ( usually just below Help on the toolbar ). Let windows reinstall the drive and see if it now works.
Regards,
DP-K

Newly installed CS2 will not recognize raw images

I have installed my Photoshop CS2 on my new computer. It will not recognize my raw images. I get a message that says "could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document". I uninstalled the program and reinstalled it again but I am still getting the same message. I have also registered it with my serial number, but every time I get into the program I get a prompt telling me I need to register.

Mac OSX 10.8 does not recognize HP LaserJet Pro M1213nf MFP

This is probably an obsolete system support problem.
This LaserJet Pro M1213nf is an old product from HP that I just recently (~3 months) purchased from a vendor as new. The MFP system is flawless and except for the occasional scanner tilt in grabbing the sheet from the automatic document feeder, works perfectly.
Unfortunately, when I bought it, I used an old Macbook with Snow Leopard to test it. Worked beautifully. I recently purchased a new Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion, and it does not work with that. This Macbook is going to be my primary system from now on.
Googling this problem has convinced me that neither HP nor Apple intend to support this, at least not anytime soon. Updating drivers from the store has not helped. In fact, each time it has happened, I have had to uninstall the new driver, and install the old Lion version of the drivers (see below).
Current status:
1. It prints without a problem. It copies too, but I don't really use that a lot.
2. It scans but only with the HP Scan application bundled with the Lion version of the driver. (which was the last major version where this was supported)
3. Image Capture, Preview, etc. do not work with this and the OS does not even recognize the scanner.
I installed sane-backends to work around the problem but I have not really invested a great deal of time into it and that did not help.
My question is - how do I hack it to work with my Mountain Lion install natively? I use Linux regularly, and have absolutely no issues compiling software, tinkering with things, using open source software, etc. My understanding is that Mountain Lion has changed the interface for scanners and that new interface is not available for older scanners.
Why do I need this to work? Well, I scan a lot of documents and there are some AppleScripts I want to use to do some standard post scan processing to reduce PDF size. The native HP scan application that comes with the drivers is an irritating piece of crap that wastes my time everytime I need to do something.
And I am not going to throw out a perfectly good MFP just because Apple and HP want to generate some undeserved profits off me. Good hardware always trumps artificial commercial software choices for this engineer.

Just saw your reply. I am not sure what you are suggesting.
I have the following in my Mac Harddrive/Library/Image Capture/Devices folder:
Canon IJScanner2
Canon IJScanner4
EPSON Scanner
HP M1130_M1210 Scanner
However, the icon for the last mentioned is different. It does not have the Image Capture icon. It simply has the generic application icon (two white papers with an "A" formed out of a ruler, a pencil and a brush). I doubt that the icon makes a difference, but it is what I observe.
The permissions for the first three and the last are identical.
The file sizes for all the files are in the same size range (except for EPSON, which is much bigger).
I should reiterate that I am using the Lion version drivers on Mavericks (just upgraded from Mountain Lion yesterday). Those are the newest drivers for this MFP.

Mac osx 10.5 will not open download - has a 'no entry' bar over icon and message 'not supported on this architecture', also has overwritten previous version.

As above. Did not notice the 'no entry' sign and dragged icon in applications as per your instructions and it replaced the previous version. Now have no Firefox at all. Tried 3 downloads, all no good.

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

My Mac and/or iPhoto will not recognize my camera.

So I shot pics in RAW yesterday and when I hook my camera it is not recognized. This happened the other day also when I shot in RAW. What would be the problem?

Did you apply the Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 2.2? If so the following may help:

Date: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 7:26:47 PM
This might work (from Clem who figured it out):
Delete the file: System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle then (re)install the previous version.
Get the previous version here:

Restart your computer. "
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

My macbook pro will not recognize my Seagate external hard drive.

Last night it was working fine, but I noticed that every time I plug in my hard drive there is a bunch of files in my trash bin. I tried to delete them and my trash bin goes into the negatives and never stops. I tried dragging those files from the trash bin into the shredder on mackeeper, but that did not work. I then gave up on trying to delete the files and went to bed. I woke up and now my hard drive does not work. It still glows but nothing comes up on the screen. I plugged it in my brothers computer which is windows and it recognized it (It started to install the hard drive on his computer, so I stopped it). I also recently removed programs/ applications like ichat, garage band, and other applications that I never used on my computer. Just wondering what I need to do to get this to work because all my school stuff is on the hard drive. And I tried a new cable and it still does not show up. Please help.
I guess never mind, literally 25 seconds after I posted this message, all of the sudden it recognized my hard drive. I hope it does not take this long for it to recognize it everytime I use my computer.

I suggest you delete Mackeeper and do not use the Mackeeper uninstaller. Look at some of the discussions on this forum and you will understand that it is at best a nuisance and at worst malware that has a negative impact on the performance of your MBP. Here are instructions that you may use to get rid of it:

Iphoto 8 on Mac Pro email button will not create "Larger" images!?

When I use the email function (from sharing menu or "email" icon) iPhoto generates the same (small) size file no matter which size I choose in the menu. This happens for all originals regardless of the raw size. This is not an issue for me on my laptop w/iPhoto 6. Anybody??? -Thanks.

Chris
What version of the OS are you using? iPhoto 08 won't run on 10.3 and you're list refers to 10.3.
Later versions of Mail have a setting for sizing pics in the New Message Window:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
That's the usual cause of this problem (but not on 10.3).
