After downloading the hp 3054A software I cannot add the printer to my macbook pro

I recently tried to add my hp 3054A printer to my macbook pro.  After downloading the software from hp's website I tried to add the printer to my macbook pro and keep getting the error message The software for this printer is currently unavailable. Please contact the printer’s manufacturer for the latest software.  This is after I initially get the message  Software for this printer is available from Apple. Would you like to download and install it?
I have tried adding HP printer software from Apple's site but that did not help.  Any help with this is much appreciated!
Many Thanks,
Izumi

  • HT1800 Cannot reconnect my printer to my Macbook Pro

    I am trying to add a printer to my MacBook Pro and I have deleted all existing printers and reset - but I still get the message "maximum number of printers that can be added has been exceeded" - how do I fix this? Note - I have previously used this printer

    Hello, try this...
    Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    Reinstall the Printer Driver.

  • I have bought the iPad 3 and created an iCloud account.  How do I download the data from my Macbook pro to my desktop Mac?

    Please help me.  I want to sync all of my data on my iPad 3, my Macbook Pro and my Mac Desktop.  I have created an iCloud account and what I see on my Macbook Pro is also on my iPad. How do I now download the data which I think is on my iCloud account to my Mac Desktop? 
    I have already gone into preferences on my desktop, found the iCloud and set up my preferences under my account.  Am I missing something?
    I would hate to have to take my desktop to an Apple store.  Thank you in advance for all of your help.

    This forum is for questions about Apple Remote Desktop, Apple's software for managing networked Mac systems, and hence not the best place for your question. I'd suggest asking for assistance in the iCloud forums.
    Regards.

  • Do you have any ideas on how I may resume my TV volume to full capability after disconnecting the HDMI cable and Macbook Pro to watch DVD's somehow my tv volume got turned down and I can't get it to restore fully. Any constructive ideas?

    I  used the HDMI cable from my Macbook Pro to my Panasonic TV to watch DVD's but I had no sound, so I used the community suggestion in going to system preferences>sound etc. followed the instructions and got great sound in fact very loud to my TV so I turned down the volume from my TV remote control. After watching the DVD's I disconnected the HDMI from my TV and realized for some reason my TV volume now is not returning to it's full volume even though I've tried to turn it to it's maximum. Any constructive assistance is truly appreciated. Thanks.

    Hey, it's a simple fix that should give most people what they want until there is full VZW support: the ability to use their card with the VZAM software.  I didn't see anyone else offering that suggestion...  If you don't want to use it, you don't have to.
    At the very least, this does seem to prove the theory that this is an issue with the 32/64bit compatability that some have refuted.

  • Blank screen after rotating the display in Yosemite (MacBook Pro Late 2013)

    Hi,
    after installing Yosemite on my MacBook Pro 15" Late 2013 I have trouble rotating it's screen. After I launch Preferences and click Displays while pressing alt and command keys I see the list of possible orientations available.
    If I now select 270° the screen immediately goes black. To be clear: The display is not turned off like when the MacBook sleeps. It's still lit, but only shows a black screen. After turning the MacBook off by pressing and holding the power button I can boot and voilà, the screen is perfectly normal, showing everything rotated at 270°. If I reset to Landscape from there (i. e. 0°), I have no problem at all, everything still works. Setting it back to 270° again lets the screen go black again.
    I have an installation of Mavericks at my primary partition and it has no problems at all with rotation. Is this a known bug or can anyone confirm this behaviour?
    As a hint for others suffering the same problem: You can get around the hard reset by pressing shift-comand-q followed by enter key. This logs your user out of the system and gets you back to the login screen. This obviously kind of reinitializes the UI. After that, the display's rotation is working and you just have to login again.
    Even if this is some kind of workaround it would still be much more convenient not requiring this workaround.
    Thanks in advance,
    Oliver

    Hi,
    yes, I had the same issues here! My solution was to force the system to use the discrete graphics card instead of the intel one. Then you get some additional options for the resolution which are much more usable. If you need further infos let me know. I'm using the MacBook in a rotated state about 95% of the time and it works pretty well now (at least in Mavericks, where I also experience your described behaviour).
    Greetings,
    Oliver

  • How do I change the printer settings on macBook pro OSX v10.8.1?

    I am trying to print a webpage but i want it in duplex format (two pages front and back on one sheet). The default is set to "one sided". I can't seem to change the presets (under presets > show presets > copies and pages > settings and value). Usually we can change the value, ie. the number of copies and change the format to "duplex". I can't seem to change the value.

    I am running Leopard OS in 64 bit mode. Everytime I want to run my Cisco VPN client I reboot it in 32 bit mode by holding the two keys (don't remember what two keys at the moment).  I am looking for another way to run my Cisco VPN.  I don't see the check box labeled "Open in 32-bit mode" .  The only thing I see is "Open in Rosetta" or something like that.  Is the check box "Open in 32-bit mode" only show in Lion X OS?

    I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
    I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …
    You have made an old man very happy and saved me from worrying that senile decay had suddenly set in. (I was 70 last week so you might understand the situation from that.)

Deleting files and emptying your recycle been will help you restore." how am i going to erase files if i can't open my ipad. i dont know what to do. Its been 2 days now. please help. thanks.

    yes i am sure. This are the exact words... "The iPad "iPad" could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to use is full. (Removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space". i tried some options, hard reset, redsnow, tinyumbrella but still it's stuck.

    PLEASE!!!  LOL

    Hello Rob,
    It sounds like you have installed the 64 bit version of iTunes, but you continue to the get an error message that suggests to download the 64 bit version any time you connect your iPhone.  I understand that you have already uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, but sometimes you may need to uninstall additional components related to iTunes to completely remove it from your system.
    I recommend following the steps in the article below to completely uninstall iTunes (click on the link for your version of Windows):
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

    Once you have completely uninstalled iTunes, you can download the 64 bit version of iTunes for Windows here:

  • What do i do after downloading iOS 3.1 software and "There was a problem downloading iOS 3.1.1 software update for ipod touch. an unknown error occurred (8288). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." comes up?

    what do i do after downloading iOS 3.1 software and "There was a problem downloading iOS 3.1.1 software update for ipod touch. an unknown error occurred (8288). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." comes up?

    Hello, I hope by now you have resolved the upgrade issue, but if not, here is what I ended up having to do:
    “SUCCESS!!! I took my iPod to a friend who is a computer programmer/genius. He turned off his wireless, hooked the ethernet cable directly into his computer, and the download went through without a hitch. YAY!”
    Here is my original post explaining what I had already tried:
    “Hi all,
    I got an iPod Touch 1st gen for my youngest son for Christmas as a starter. It has the 2.1.2 ios on it, but after I paid for the upgrade to 3.1.1, I keep getting an error message (8288) saying there was a problem with the network connection. I have called customer service, and they suggested I try on a different computer, and if that didn't work, try connecting to a different network, and then trying the update. None of this has worked. It seems that tech support is clueless with this issue.
    I have installed and unistalled iTunes 10.5, 10.3, 10.4, and now I am back with 10.5. I have tried looking up the issue from several search engines but no one seems to have a universal solution and I have tried several.
    I really want to have this thing updated for himw hwne he opens it, but I am starting to worry that my purchase was a bust. I know this is the oldest version, but I don't want to buy a newer, more expensive iPod and him still not be mature enough to really take care of it. As I said, this one is a starter.
    Can anyone help? Please?!
    Thank you!!!
    P.S. We have a PC, with Windows XP Home.”
    Now, there seem to be a lot of different ways to solve the 8288 error, none of which are universal. Best of luck getting yours upgraded!
    Tiffany
    P.S. The post by Sparkhi is a link to his blog going into a long story about how he wanted Apple to pay him for “solving” the issue….the one that apparently has been solved by multiple solutions. I’m not trying to bash, it just bothers me that he put up this whole story and finally, at the very end of his blog post, posts his solution.

    install 6.5 before proceeding further. I coud not understand.
    Just what it says - install os 10.6.5 before proceeding further.  You can either do so through Software Update or use the Combo update from Apple's download site.
    You should repair permissions and restart your computer prior to updating and upgrading.
