Will my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless work with the new Mac OS Lion

My experience with upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion is that the OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless will print just fine, although it seems to take a little longer to find the printer on the network. My scan function however locks up and will not work. This really is an annoyance, though, since I have VueScan, which works fine with Lion.
Hopefully, Apple and HP will not orphan the OS native scanning feature for HP multifunction printers.

Will my LED 27 Cinema Display work with the new Mac Pro?

Will my LED 27 Cinema Display work with the new Mac Pro?

Mini DisplayPort (like 27" LED Cinema Display) is a direct subset of ThunderBolt (like Mac pro late 2013). It plugs right in and the display portion "just works", no adapters required.

I am just about to install Lion just need to check to see if if my work e-mail will work

Sarah,
Check this link:
http://roaringapps.com/app:2533
It contains some issues that people have encountered with Lion and Office 2008. It appears it can work, but you may have to go through some of the steps a few of the posters there have listed.
That website also contains a pretty large list of applications and if they will work with Lion.
Hope this helps! (I am not affiliated in any way with the site linked).

HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless Networking with LINKSYS WRT54GS wireless router

I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless printer conneted via WiFi to my LYNKSYS WRT54GS wireless router. I do not have a USB cable or ethernet cable plugged to the printer. I am able to use the 'scan to email button' and the 'scan to network folder' button on the front of the printer and I can pint from the PC to the printer with no problems.
I installed the HP printer software from the CD, choosing network/wireless connection, without having to install any USB cables from the PC to the printer in the process. many posts in the forum mention having to connect USB cables in the wireless installation process.
Can I install the software in the same fashion on the other two laptops? Or, do I need to do something differently?

The USB cable is used on those printers which do not have display or front panel wireless setup is not possible. We configure the wireless settings during install and save those settings in printer's memory by transferring through USB cable. Therefore the USB is plugged in during wireless installation temporarily. In your case I don't think plugging in USB cable is necessary as the printer is already on network and had IP address. Connect the laptops on wireless network and proceed with regular install, the printer should be detected automatically.

My mission control key does not work with the new Mac update

The key on the keyboard doesnt work, neither does the button on my dock. Any help?
P.S. is anyone else having as much trouble as I am with the new update?

The pre-2006 Mac models this forum covers cannot run a Mac OS high enough to have Mission Control. If you can identify your Mac to us we can get you moved to a more active forum.

DVD Studio Pro no longer works with the new iMac. Solutions?

Disc installations in general don't exist anymore and DVD Studio Pro is no longer supported in the new iMac that we have at our office. I used to have Roxio's Toast Titanium as a backup burner, but even that is not supported past mac OS 10.7. Final Cut X has the option to export straight to DVD but the menu options it gives you is so basic it doesn't even look professional. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and what they are using now to burn a professional looking DVD. Many thanks

mlaughbaum,
It seems as though you and I are on the same page struggling. Were you able to find any alternatives to DVDSP or any way to continue using it?
On-Site Video
I'm considering myself lucky... Though I was unable to install either DVDSP and FCP v.6 on my new iMac, they are both still working on my older iMac even though it too is running ML. I believe this is because I upgraded to ML from Leopard with both already installed.
My only suggestion would be to install Leopard (or the OS on which they were working for you), install FCP, DVDSP and compressor, and then upgrade to ML. Seems like a silly solution but I have a feeling it would work. I'm not doing it because it's working on the iMac that's closest to my DVD duplicator. That said, if I had to, I believe that's what I'd try.
Really infuriates me. My business depends on DVD sales and there really isn't another cost effective DVD authoring solution for the mac out there.
I do wish you the best of luck and would love to hear if you come up with a better solution.

Why is my iSight camera is not working with the new Mac Pro?

I connected the iSight camera which is a FireWire 400 into a Sonnet FireWire 800 adapter, and connected that into a FireWire to ThunderBolt adapter and plugged directly into the Mac Pro running Mave. I receive power, noted by the green light coming on, but the computer does not recognize a camera. Does anyone have an idea why this is.

We are all busy with many other problems in Pages 5.
Unless you have found some real reason to use Pages 5 just go back to Pages '09 which should still be in your Applications folder, until Apple sorts this all out.

Will any of my old displays work with the new Mac Mini

I am thinking of getting a new Mac Mini.     What I need to know is if any of the monitor/displays I have here can bem used.
I have two old video monitors I used to used with my old mac mini (Samsung Symc Master 770 and old little Princeton - VL158) , a
n early 2006 iMac 20" (which I don't think I could use as a monitor from what I read) and an little Samsung TV with USB and HDMI connectors.,
Can I use any of these?
Need new connector cords?   Mini-DVI to VGA adapter?
Thanks

I am a writer though and a photographer (strictly point and shoot) for a couple of orgs. I just don't want o run out of space. And I hate!! slow response time.
Is the i5 adequate as well?
Glad to have found an Apple guru so quickly. May very well buc you more in the future.

HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless - will not print green

I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless that will not print Green.
I have:
1. Cleaned Printhead using device cleaning command. All steps
2. Alligned Printer - get message 'Alignment failed. Refer to device documentation for details.' I see know documentation
3. Calibrate Linefeed
4. Unplugged device while it was on and then replugged restarted.
5. Unplugged device while it was on and cleaned magenta/cyan printhead (following instructions from your website explictly).
The Alignment failed message persists and it still will not print green. I have done some of the above multiple times.
I hope you can help quickly. I have a home office and this is putting me behind a lot!
If I need a new printhead, get one and it does not fix the problem, can I return it? How can I get a printhead quickly?
THanks! Kathy

Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-In-One Windows 8 driver not working

Hello!
I recently got a new Dell Inspiron computer running the 64-bit version of Windows 8, and I have an Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-In-One Printer from a long time ago. I don't have the disc version of the driver, since I purchased the printer before Windows 8 came out, so I tried to download it from the HP website. Whenever I try to run it, however, it says that it is extracting, but once the extract is finished, nothing happens. The Installation Wizard doesn't pop up, and there is no error message explaing it. Help please?
Thanks!
This question was solved.

Hi,
Can I check if your Officejet Pro 8500 is A909 or A910? Alternatively, you can install the class driver built into Windows 8 to print to your printer. There are also a couple of Windows Store apps (HP AiO Remote and HP Scan and Capture) that would work with your printer.

HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless (Vista x64) Will not print after Sleep Mode

Hello,
As the title says the printer does not print after coming back from sleep mode. Before entering sleep mode the printer works fine and is responsive. After coming back from sleep mode the printer is still responsive (buttons on the touch screen can be pressed) but unfortunately does not accept any print jobs. Currently, I restart the printer to get it to print. It is connected wirelessly through WRT610N Linksys Router. Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
-Artem Durytskyy

I have been having the same problem all during my warranty period. But no one ever told me it was a firmware problem until two days ago connected to the sleep mode for the wireless one. Supposedly, they have downloads for wire ones now online which I found for 909a and 909b, but not 909g which is wireless. Now I am out of warranty and they won't replace it. I have a long history with tech support since early 2010. Right now, they are sending me a power adapter to try, said to turn off sleep mode (which I dont' know how). Then I told them I found online a firmware download, Apr 2010 to update firmware. My current version is different that the one listed for the download. So, I'm going back to TS to have them fool with it. Has anything worked for you?

Printing problem - HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer, Red color fads on 4th copy

I have an HP HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer, and am trying to print 75 copies of a program for our event. After the first 5-6 pages the RED in my program starts to turn magenta. I have brand new HP ink, and am printing on HP Color Injet Paper. I have renectly replaced the Black/Yellow printhead (at least 6 months ago). At first when I cleaned the printheads, I could print 2 or 3 pages showing my RED color. Then turns back to magenta. When I received the test patterns after cleaning the print heads they are all perfect with no lines.
What is going on and how can I fix it?
This question was solved.

Hi TM1997,
I understand you have an Officejet 8500 Wireless that is not printing red properly, it keeps turning to magenta. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will definitely do my best to help you!
As I'm sure you saw, when replacing the black and yellow printhead, that there are two printheads in the Officejet 8500 and the second one controls the magenta and cyan. I would suggest that you first have a look through this Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues document. You can also manually clean your printhead with the steps in this 'The Following Printhead Appears to be Missing or Damaged' or 'The Following Printhead has a Problem... document.
Hope this helps, have a great day!!

Printing problem - HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - printer head?

I posted this elsewhere, but I think I posted it on the wrong Forum so I am posting it here now. I hope I did not do anything to upset anyone. I am new to this area, please forgive my clumsiness.
I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer. I've had my printer since December 2009 and no problems. I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 7 and had to go online to find the drivers that work for my printer. Windows 7 was not compatible with this printer.
Also recently, I am having a problem with what I think may be the black printer head, but when I run diagnostic on it everything comes back saying it is fine. However the problem still exist. When printing the black color will become faded in some areas and in some lines will not only almost totally fade out, but will almost look italic.
Can you tell me if this is the printer head and does it need replacing or is there another problem?
SondraS

Are you using genuine HP cartridges and not refilled or third-party cartridges?
Print the Print Quality Diagnostic page from the setup menu/print report/ on the printer's front panel
Are there any quality issues with this page?

Scanning to Computer, HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All in one Printer A909g

I am unable to scan to computer with Win 8.1 using my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless all in one Printer A909g. I can scan to email. The system says my drivers and software are up to date. When trying to scan to computer all I get is a blank scan file with no scan number (Scan_Doc0054) as I used to with Vista. In Vista I was able to drive the whole process from my computer. When scanning to email now I have to drive it from my printer as opposed to the computer.
I restarted an old computer running Vista and the 'scan to computer' function is operational. As far as I am aware there are no other functional problems with the printer.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi John046,
I am sorry to hear that did not work for you, I do have some more options for you to try:
Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Disable any antivirus programs. Windows Defender - Turn On or Off in Windows 8.
Disable any firewalls. Disable firewall Windows 8.
Re-install using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
If that does not resolve your issue, please call our phone support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. Country-language selector.
