10.6.8 cant see Shared 10.8 printer over network

Hi
I've shared a Kyocera Laser printer on my 10.8 Mac and Shared it (it's connected via USB)
The other 10.6.8 macs can't see the printer at all - but the 10.8 macs see it no problem.
Can anyone suggest what I can do? I've rebooted the 10.8 Mac.......10.7 never had this issue so something has changed in Mountain Lion.
Thanks for your advice.

Don't worry it's come up now - it took 5 mins to pop up on the 10.6.8 macs...

Printing From iBook To Printer on Vista Desktop, Cant see shared printers

Printing From iBook To Printer on Windows Vista Desktop, Can't see shared printer on a Vista machine from a Mac, although Windows notebooks find it immediately.
I have previously always had success sharing printers on Windows XP machines with my iBooks. . However upon installing Vista RC1 on my desktop I find I can no longer find the printer in the Mac's printer setup utility. When I dual boot back to XP everything works fine, but on the same machine when I boot into Vista I am unble to see the printers. The Mac printer setup utility finds the Vista machine on the network, but the printers are never visible. Is their some secret or channge in Vista that prevents Mac's running , in my case,Tiger 10.4.8 from seeing a shared printer on a computer running Vista
On the Vista machine, if I boot into XP The printer is shared and Windows notebooks can print to it, but neither of my iBooks can see the Printers when Vista is running.
ibook G4 1.33ghz 12, 1.42ghz 14 Mac OS X (10.4.8) 1gig ram,

That might have been the situation for the beta's and first RC's, but I have a final build. Plus the fact that other Windoze notebooks see the printer on the Vista box just fine leads one to believe it is a mac/Vista specific issue.
If anyone actually has experience with a MAC and Vista , I would appreciate hearing from you.
thanks,

Can't see shared Airport USB Drive on Network

I have a AirPort Extreme (5th Generation) with a USB drive attached. I am using OS 10.9.2 on my desktop and laptop. I can see the drive on my desktop Mac which has a ethernet connection to the Airport, but my laptop can't see the shared drive. I used Airport Utility (under "Disk" Tab) to Enable file sharing and share disks over WAN. I have set the "Secure Shared Disks" to "With a disk Password." On the laptop, I have set Finder preferences to see "External disks."
However, the disk does not show up on the Finder sidebar under "Devices" or "Shared."
Any suggestions on how I can make this "Shared Drive" visible?
Thanks,
Dave

Also make sure that Finder Preferences is set to show Connected Servers on the desktop.
Restart the entire network as well by powering everything off, waiting a minute, then starting the modem first, followed by the next device connected to the modem, etc until everything is powered back up.

HP LJ CP1215 Unable To Print over Network Sharing

I'm having trouble with my CP1215 printing over the network via microsoft sharing. It was working fine and then one day stopped working. I've already removed it and re-installed it on the remote PC with window XP and removed a re-installed the physical connection and the software and drivers on the host PC with Windows XP, as well. The host computer has no trouble printing anything. The remote computer can't even print a test page. When I send a job to the printer from the remote computer it appears in the print queue on the host computer as "Printing" but hangs there for a minute or two and eventually disappears and nothing happens on the printer itself. Firewalls have all been turned off/disabled during tests, as well. Anyone have any ideas?

No one has any ideas on this? From looking around in Google a bit, this seems to be common, but no one has had any answer for it yet.
I just talked to HP. I had to set the cp1215 as the default printer on my wireless laptop for it to print.
As long as it is set to default printer it works fine, but if something else is the default, it goes to the cue and eventually disappears without printing.

Cannot print PDF files on shared Laserjet Pro P1102w over network.

Having an issue with a P1102w not printing PDF files when sent to it over the network. Printer is shared on a networked PC via USB (wireless enabled but not used) and listed in the Active Directory so anyone can find it and print, However, if any computer other than the host tries to send a PDF document then the printer ejects a blank page and the warning light flashes, Word documents, Powerpoint presentations print fine just not PDFs? Tried changing the print processor, printing directly, resinstalling drivers but still no luck.
Network is a small server with 2008 standard 32bit connected to a HP 24 port procurve switch. Anyone come across this problem before?

Hi,
Are you using Adobe Reader?
From the Print dialog, click the Advanced Button.
Check the Print as image option, confirm the changes and try printing.
Can you see any change?

Sharing a local printer over AE's

I have two Airport Extreme (802.11.g) base stations and one is using WDS to extend my coverage to a second floor and garage.
I have a shared printer on an iMac connected to one base station (the master) and can't seem to access it while connected to the other base station (the slave via WDS). If I simply unplug the second base station and connect to the master I can print from my MacBook Pro or PowerBook but if I plug the second back in and then connect to the wireless network from that base station I can't see the shared printer.
Any suggestions? This seems to break lately with one of the software updates.

Hi,
There is no any problem to share the local printers as I known.
In an Enterprise environment, we always share the network printers to make it work better.

Issues sharing win 7 drive over network to mac

Hi guys,
So i installed a new hard-drive in my HTPC today running win 7. All has been going fine until i attempted to share the drive, all appears to have been set-up correctly on the windows side (enabled sharing on the drive etc)
However when i attempt to connect to the drive it comes up with a message saying:
Connection failed
You do not have permission to access the server 192.168........etc
I have two drives that i am trying to share over this network, the first one has been shared for about 6 months and has been working fine, my mac can see it and get files off of it perfectly. I can still connect to this drive now aswell.
It's just this new drive thats causing the issues. Im trying to connect using a registered user
Any ideas, thanks.

My bad, I linked to the wrong site on that blog. The one you want is How to Share Windows 7 Files With OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard.

Can see, but can't print to network printer in Panther Server

I'm running Panther Server 10.3.9 in a vLAN with 16 OS 9 clients. They all
print to 2 Xerox Phaser 6200 and 6250 network printers. I am unable to print
to either one from a G4 running Server 10.3.9. I have limited desk space so a USB-attached printer, while
more convenient, is impractical. When I run Classic from the Server, I can print to the Phasers.
*> that means that OS X is seeing the printers. When you print in Classic, what*
*> happens is that the Classic drivers (LaserWriter 8) hands off the print jobs*
*> to the appropriate OS X drivers, which do the actual printing.*
Although I'm using OS X Server, I don't have Print Services turned on. I never could get the OS 9 clients to print the way I wanted and I didn't want to have a single point of failure for 16 clients if the Fileserver (Panther Server) went down. So they print to the Phaser themselves using, as you said, Laserwriter 8.
I can connect to administer them both with a browser.
*> this definitely means that you can see the printers.*
Yes. Everytime. I can reset them and anything else I want to do administering them with a browser (Safari).
I have all the drivers I should need (new re-installs), but print jobs stop every time.
*> Does this mean that the drivers are installed and are visible in Print & Fax?*
Yes. I have both a 6200 and a 6250. Both drivers are visible.
Is there a log file or some way I can see why these jobs fail?]
*> There are logs, some of which are visible in CUPS using the browser.*
>
*> What error messages are you getting?*
What is CUPS? I've heard of it, but don't know what it is or does. I think when I had ServerAdmin running a lot, there were CUPS files that were taking up hard drive space and I had to periodically delete them in Terminal.
I'm not getting ANY error messages. It's like the print job just evaporates before it gets to the printer. There are never print jobs showing in the list under the Print Queue.
FWIW, I can see the Phaser 6250 (but not the 6200) under Rendezvous printers.
I've tried AppleTalk, IP printing, and Rendezvous. I can always see the printer, but can never print.
AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!
Do you have any pearls of wisdom?
Thanks

I was having the same problem, and basically it comes down to Epson not having driver support for networking. The solution, install better drivers!
Go to: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php and download the latest version of the drivers. Once you've installed them go to Print & Fax in System Preferences, delete the last print setup (the little minus sign), add the new one but importantly from the driver menu select the Gutenprint driver. That should solve the problem, certainly worked for me!

Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) doesn't see HP1200 Printer over network

Hopefully somebody can shed some light here -- I have an HP LaserJet 1200 on my ethernet LAN. Have never had any problems setting it up to print using earlier versions of Mac OS or ever Windows -- however as fas as Mountain Lion is concerned the printer doesn't exist. I've downloaded and installed the latest drivers from HP, restarted machine, etc to no avail. Can anybody tell me what I need to do to make 10.8 see the printer across the room?

Yes, XP box will print with no problems. The 'Properties' index was where I got the IP address from. Have looked at the 'ports' tab, have a port number and see that the protocol is 'Raw'. SNMP status is enabled and SNMP devide index is 1. Does this mean anything to you?
Yes it does. XP is using RAW Port 9100 to connect, which is called HP Jetdirect-Socket on OS X. Given that you have already tried creating a printer queue using HP Jetdirect and this did not work, there must be something else that you need to do.
It also sounds odd that the configuration page you printed does not show an IP address set in the printer. Does the Ethernet cable connect directly to the LJ1200, or is there some type of adaptor between the Ethernet and printer?

IMac screen sharing automatically in dock over network

I am running 10.10.2 in an iMac Late 2013.
My mail and safari seem to be automatically screen sharing with other iMacs in my office. They get a little secondary dock that lives on the left of the normal dock. I've attached a screen shot of the scenario. All the computers in the office are logged on to the same iCloud account and are all connected to the same network. How can I turn this function off?

Hi Versatile Studios,
Based on your post it seems you would like to turn of the Continuity feature called Handoff. This allows you to continue your work on another device. I have linked to an article which provides more information about the feature, and how to deactivate it:
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
Turn off Handoff
To turn off Handoff on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, go to Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps, and turn off Handoff.
On your Mac, go to System Preferences > General and uncheck the Allow Handoff setting.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

Can't See Shared Music (Not radio button problem!)

I haven't been able to see Shared Music on my college network since I reinstalled Windows XP (around iTunes 4.8). I don't know what settings have changed.
I now have the latest iTunes, the radio buttons are on. I heard about opening up a port, and bonjour service. I'm not sure how to execute those solutions.
Thanks for your time,
Connie

Although that was a very helpful hint that I can in fact play Mac's iTune Music on iPad without syncing, it's not solving my primary issues, which are:
1. I bought some music via iTunes on iPad and I can't get them to Mac, because that Shared label is not present in my Mac iTunes
2. I want some of my Mac iTunes music to sync to iPad anyway, because I want to play it also when not being on home share network.
3. When I synced iPad, many apps have been removed from it and are not there anymore, but appear in Mac's iTunes in that Apps section under iPhone, iPod touch and iPad Apps, but are not below in iPad Apps - I don't know how to get them back to iPad and how to prevent this to happen again
These are maybe trivial questions, but I wasn't able to find answers and don't have so much time to search more.
Thanks.

Cant see my pc shared files, my shared pc

Hi-- When I connect my mac with a hardwire internet cable my shared pc folders show up under the Shared in a finder window. When I hook up my mac wirelessly through airport extreme, the Shared completely disappears and my shared pc folders are unavailable. I've been through the airport setup utility many times now and cant see what I need to change to get it to let my shared pc folders in.
My pc is on a hard wire connection and the setup utility runs on my mac.

I have the same issue. I guess it's just a setting somewhere, but I can't figure where.
Just to tell you there are other people with the same problem.
If you have any information how to fix it, please post.
Thank you.
