All I wanted to do was buy a printer and I ended up with your rubbish

I went out and bought a Printer!! I'm sorry I picked your printer, but hey that's life.
I just want something that when I click the "printer" icon on IE8 or in my email it prints the document (hey this is to complicated) What it actually does is print a blank page with half the page numbers on the bottom.
I can just click print for my personal documents in my folders on my PC (that's impressive one touch printing)
But come web pages it's a big NO NO
I found out I need a printer address unknown what this is for as I have an email address in fact I have a couple which do OK thank you, I don't want a silly address so long I can't remember the **bleep** thing.
Please please tell me how to just press the print button on my web page or email and print off the document as normal as possible without coming all over the net to various HP centre based web pages for information, I have had this printer now for two weeks and I haven't printed a single thing with it apart from some document telling me my printer email address when I first pressed the APPS button (again who the hell wants APPS)
Just print .....Print .... Print
Can I sell it back to you and go and buy a printer ?
This is the crappiest thing I have ever bought EVER

Hi thanx for that I have checked and the right icon for my printer is showing, I have reset my settings in IE8 & tried 7 and all I can print is blank pages, I tried printing in Google Chrome and it worked by pressing print on my keyboard but again just blank pages in Internet explorer.
I did however go to HP help pages (get this) the answer to my problem was " Print this page" on the page "I can't print"
I couldn't make it up, well I could but the times where better then I had a canon lol
Thank you for replying I know it's hard answering peoples queries to multiple problems

I've forgotten one of my answes to the "security questions" now I am locked out of my account. All I wanted to do was buy an album and now I am "locked out" how do I get Itunes to let me buy this album?

I am not a ferquent user of Apple aside to download music on to my Ipod touch and I am not overly pleased with it. All I wish to do is download and ablum and cannot remeber the answers to one of my security questions.*seeing as I rarely use it* now I am locked out of my account and all and all very annoyed. how do I become unlocked and change my security questions so that I may download this album and stop using Itunes all in all.

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
    1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
          Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
          bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
          'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
          ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
          phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
     2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support or

How does this **** work? I have an Ipad and Iphone and an Itunes account and it won't sync anything...i don't understand why I spent a fortune on this crap that doesn't work. All I want to do is get my phone and ipad in sync but NO that isn't doable

Is everything Apple does ****? I can't sync anything all I want to do is get by iphone and ipad on the same page...but the syncing wants me to agree to delete everything...this is nuts...there is no help...is Apple's idea of help have the users be there help desk? there is no where to go and it is a joke!

And with that kind of attitude, it's unlikely that anyone here (and there are some extremely knowledgeable people here) will want to help.
If you really want help and aren't just here to rant, I suggest you start another thread in which you lay out the problem, including any error messages you may have received and any steps you may already have taken to solve the problem. Include details about any computer operating systems you may be using. And, do not include the attitude.
Best of luck.

If you all log into iCloud with the same AppleID, then you can all have access to the same Contacts, Calendars, Mail, Notes, Safari Bookmarks. Or, you can only select some of those, but individualized iCloud email would not be possible. That's probably not really what you want to do, though.
You can also just share out your Calendars via iCloud, no need to use same AppleID. They can subscribe to them and I believe you can authorize them to make changes.
Looking at Contacts, it does look like you could create another iCloud account, independent of the iCloud account in the iCloud system prefs, but I don't have another to test at the moment. If that works for the Contacts, they would have their own set and yours too.

My new mac mini (3 month) didn't start up,all that appeared was a white screen and a flashing folder with a question mark inside it.

My new Mac mini (3 month) didn't start up, all that appeared was a white screen and a flashing folder with a question mark inside it.
I followed by recommendations from 'Everything Mac': "shut it down by pressing and holding the power button for about 5 seconds.
Then hold down the Option key and press the power button again to start up the Mac mini. Keep holding down the Option key until
the Mac mini starts up."
But I got a Wi-Fi button only to chose and connect the local network. I connected to my network and I can't use this connection
becouse no icons.
Could you please help me?

Your Mini (running 10.6.4) should have come with grey-colored install disks. Now is the time to put them into service. Turn on your computer so that there is power to accept disk #1 into the optical drive. Once the disk is in the drive, shut off the computer by holding the start button down until it powers off. Then turn it on this time holding down the "C" key to make the computer boot from the disk. The question mark that you saw indicates that the computer cannot find a bootable volume. This can happen due to corrupted system files or an improper shutdown etc. Once you are in the "Installer" you can choose Disk Utility from the Utilities Menu in the menu bar. Use it to repair the disk and to see if that can solve your trouble.

iCloud doesn't store documents from your Mac (or scanner). It will only sync documents and data from applications designed for iCloud syncing, such as Pages, Keynote, Numbers, etc.

Adobe does not market old version of their products the old downloads are available mostly for old licences users so they can download their licenced products should they need to. So if you do not have a licence for Lightroom 3.6 after your 30 days trial install expires you can not use it or purchase a licence.
It would be a good Idea for you to get a new computer with Windows 7 or 8 on it. I prefer Windows 7. If you are still running XP though its a good OS and runs on old Hardware that Windows 7 and 8 can not run on. Its best to turn those old tired machines into network print servers and have nothing of value on them. For Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft and security holes that are still in XP will not being plugged. You just inviting the waiting intruders in they will show up it you connect to the web and uses it.
If you are using old hardware for a modest price you can get a new machine that is more powerful then the one you using. With wireless devices it nice to have a network printer your current machine will be of no value to anyone. If you hate the idea on scrapping a working machine a print server may be the was to go IMO.
If you purchased a Photographer CC subscription you can install the subscription Photoshop CS6 version 13.1.2 that should run on XP with some newer PS features unavailable like 3D any feature the requires a GPU. CS6 does not support any GPU on Windows XP. You can do all that LR can do to images and more with Photoshop. I do not even download Lightroon. I don't need its library system or desire a second UI over the Adobe RAW conversion Engine. This save disk space and I don't have to maintain and additional Adobe product and a simpler work-flow.
Besides CS6 you can install LR 4.4 I do not use LR so I have no ides if it will run on XP. XP not listed in LR 4.4 requirement.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 does not support Windows XP. This decision did not come lightly and was based on a number of factors. With each version of Lightroom, our goal is always to provide a consistently excellent customer experience. Developing and testing across Operating System versions and platforms to ensure that we’re achieving this goal is a significant effort that takes time and resources. XP is substantially different from Windows Vista and Windows 7, and requires an independent testing matrix, which increases the complexity of our development efforts. Every cycle we need to make difficult resource tradeoff decisions and operating system support competes heavily with new features and performance enhancements planned for each version. The decision this cycle was to end XP support for Lightroom going forward.

When I air print from my iPad, I can't limit the number of pages. It just says print and the number of copies and I end up with way more than I want. How do I set it to limit the pages?

When I air print using FingerPrint from my ipad, it doesn't let me limit the number of pages, and I end up with more pages than I want. It asks if I want multiple copies, but it doesn't ask me number of pages, or which pages. Is there a way to do this?

When you use an AirPrint compatible printer, you get this option for page range. You are using your computer as the server in order to print, so you probably have to set the range on the computer. While you can print from your printer with this app, I assume that it doesn't give you the same control that you get directly from the iPad when using an AirPrint printer.
Read this from the FingerPrint support site. Selecting the page range would be part of the formatting of a print job.

Where has my airport utility window gone ? when I double click on the icon all I get is an image of a globe and a base station with no options to make changes in my airport extreme.

Where has my airport utility window gone? When I double click on the airport utility icon all I get is a picture of a globe and a base station with no further options available to modify my airport extreme.

Sorry, you lost me on that last post.
Let's start over again.
Open AirPort Utility on your Mac
Are you asked for a password at this point? If yes, enter the base station or device password that you used when you originally set up the AirPort router. Depending when you did this originally, you might have been given an option to use the same password as the wireless network. If you were not, then you have a separate password for the base station.
You need that password to be able to access the settings for the AirPort router in AirPort Utility.
If you see a window listing basic information, click Edit in the upper right corner of the window.
If you are asked for a password, you must enter the device password or base station password that you established when you first set up the AirPort router as explained above.
If you forgot the password, a Soft Reset will allow you to go in and reset the base station password. Might be a good idea to write down that password.
If you are still stuck, then the only option that you have at this point is to perform a Hard Reset to return the settings to factory defaults and then set up the AirPort router again.
If you prefer, you can also do a Factory Default Reset. It's the same as a Hard Reset except for the timing of holding in the reset button.

All I wanted to do was move home and take Bt servi...

Why is it that something so simple can turn out to be such a nightmare
I have been a BT customer for 30 years plus
We have BT broadband and phone
I followed the BT website instructions and in mid July gave BT ample time to transfer our services ( not the number) as moving from Suffolk to Dorset
The first order was cancelled by email but I was encouraged to re-order which I did
This second order was then mysteriously cancelled
I then called BT to order by phone thinking that might be more straightforward but the guy had no idea and the the line was cut
I then went on live chat and the operator said nothing was my fault but it was a "technical issue" and promised that they would sort it personaly till we had a line.. That was a few days ago and nothing heard from then since
I then had another live chat today ( i wanted a record of the conversation) but this time the operator just dissapeared not confirming if our line had been cancelled even at our old addrtess
I dont expect much now from any company now but this service is just absolutely appaling
When I said I might move to another supplier I was told there would be some fees to pay but all i want is a line ( BT preferably) and broadband but such a simple request cannot be dealt with
I have been told now that I will get a line on 1st September ( eventhough I have been promised twice a line would be provided by todays date) but nothing has happened
I dont know is this forum can help but in desperation I thought at least maybe I could be dealing with one BT employee who might be interested and sort this matter
Any comments?

Please help me buy a printer and a scanner.

Hello:
I am in hope that I could please have some opinions regarding purchasing a new printer as well as a scanner. I have done research, however I have read these forums and marvel at the great deal of hardware expertise that emanates from so many posters. I have only owned one printer, an ancient Canon bubble jet that no longer works.
My system: Mac Pro 2 x 3.0 GHz Dual-Core with an Apple Cinema Display; software: Adobe CS3 Design Premium and MS Office 2004; OS: Tiger 10.4.11.
This purchase is not for use in some busy design studio. Everything would be for my sole use in my small Manhattan apartment.
I would like something that prints my Photoshop and Illustrator files very well along with good photo reproduction. I will be doing brochures in InDesign with insertion of Photoshop and Illustrator artwork as well as some PowerPoint slides. I need something that prints text well also. It would be great to have a printer with which I could print my business cards (as well as brochures) utilizing a somewhat heavy weight paper.
I was initially tempted to get one of those all-in-one machines, however, I rarely have to fax or copy anything. It seems to me that if I want to copy something, I could just scan it into my computer and then print it. Regarding faxing, I am assuming that I could also scan and then fax utilizing the fax software that comes with the Mac OS (hopefully the software worksnever tried it). I could get an HP all-in-one on sale for as little as $150.
Another printer that I was considering is the Epson Stylus Photo RX680 (again an all-in-one). Macworld gave it 4.5 mice. I find myself sort of dismayed with its having an LCD display and photo retouching software that I obviously dont need. The cheapest price I have seen for that is around $130 (maybe). I tend to be a little skeptical about these online prices until I actually make the purchase. The scanner has an optical resolution of 1200 with 9600 x 9600 interpolated (not sure as to what interpolated means in this case).
I find myself more drawn to the Epson Stylus 1400. This was recommended to me by Epson pre-sales support, however I dont feel cynical about the suggestion.
As far as Epson goes, what would be more of a fantasy printer for me is the Epson Stylus R1900 (cheapest price I found is around $500). What particularly strikes me about this one is that it can print on paper with a heavy weight. That would be great for my business cards and brochures. While for me it is a little high in price, I am still considering it.
Another possibility that I have looked at is the Canon Pixme Pro 9000. This was an Editors Choice with PC Magazine website. I found a decent price with a rebate. The review says that it would be a good choice for graphic artists.
I find it confusing as far as the difference between a so-called photo printer and an inkjet printer. According to the Epson guy, it does not seem to matter.
For a scanner, the Epson person recommended the Epson Perfection V500 ($169 w/customer loyalty). It has a 6400 x 9600 dpi resolution. While I dont know much, this seems to be good enough for me, both for capability and price. I have read some good reviews of it.
Thank you to all who would care to comment on any printer or scanner options. I find myself almost dizzy by all of the possibilities and I am open to any suggestions and any manufacturer. I am without a printer and I hope to make a purchase with the next few days.
Also, thank you to all who simply bothered to read this very long posting.
James

I want to thank everyone for taking the time to respond to my posting. (Of course, as I write this, I am hoping that you will be back to read this.)
I agree about avoiding the all-in-ones. As I wrote before, that is something that I was initially consideringmainly because of my problem with space. All I have is this old non-functioning bubble jet that came with my first computer (an almost 9 year old but still working, rarely used anymore PC). So, anything that I get will be absolutely glorious.
Regarding printers and with your help, I have now narrowed the possibilities to the Epson Stylus R1900 Photo Printer and the Canon Pixma Pro 9000. Both have eight color tanks and are able to print on paper with a heavier weight. I am still considering the Epson Stylus Photo 1400, but not as much. The more that I think about this, the more I feel that maybe I should do something nice for myself and buy something that I would really enjoy using. I did some looking into low priced lasers such as a Lexmark and a Brother, but I really dont know what to make of them. I do know that the price of toner for color lasers is very high.
My background has been mostly from doing freelance work in various advertising agencies and design studios. Consequently, the printing was really never up to me, so my knowledge of color management, paper types, and printing is limited. I feel that finally getting a good printer would be helpful in my upgrading those skills. Of course, I am without a printer anyway, so I have to buy something. I also want to look into marketing myself. The employment market here in NYC is so saturated that it is ridiculous. I truly wish that I could find somewhere else in the country to go, both for space and peace of mind. But, I digress.
Both Welles and Allen have a strong difference of opinion about the possibility of clogged jets. Im sure that both gentlemen are being honest regarding their experiences so Im a little confused about the possible problem with jets.
One of the things that I like about the Epsons is that they have the capability of printing on CDs. I dont believe the Canon is able to do that. As far as price goes, they seem to be somewhat close (Canon might be about $50 cheaper).
There are a lot of reviews of the Canon 9000 on Amazon and most of the ones that I read (there are 106 reviews!) are glowing, however some complained that even if the product were defective right out of the box, Canon would only send a refurbished replacement. Im not sure as to what to make of that, but it might be something to consider. Also, at least one reviewer did write that Epson is more friendly to Macs regarding color management.
I am even less sure about scanners. Thank you, Lundberg02 for mentioning VueScan. I never heard of it before, but I did find it on the Apple site. However, I really dont understand about avoiding the V500 because of the 6400 x 9600 resolutionI was under the impression that that was fairly good. Also, I dont understand what you wrote about native resolution being 800 spi. Was that supposed to be 8000 dpi (6400 + 9600/2)? My main experiences with scanning are last minute calls to this huge advertising agency where they had me do tons of scanning. I was so busy that I didnt even pay attention to the machine that I was using, but a safe bet is that it was far more expensive than I could afford.
Neil, I have started looking at the Canonscan 9905Fit is comparable in price to the Epson V500at least on Amazon. Yours has a resolution of 4800 x 9600 dpi while the Epson has 6400 x 9600. Does it make much of a difference? Also it was helpful that you mentioned about only having to clean the Epson jets if you havent used the printer after a month. That may be the case with menot constantly using the printer and I wondering about the inks simply drying up. That was definitely the case with the Canon bubble jet that I had.
Again, I guess that I have been too verbose in this posting. But, for me, these purchases are a big decision. Typing is easy for me and words sort of fly.
I respect each and every one of your opinions and I really do thank all of you. Not just for your help regarding the above, but regarding all of your other postings on these Adobe forums. I envy you in that clearly you love what you are doing with your respective careers. Of course more comments are welcome.
Thanks.

How to i create a new itunes account for my old iphone so i can transfer data to new iphone, since my daughters new iphone is now linked to my acc and she ends up with all my apps and contacts etc

My daughter has previously had an ipod which was linked to my itunes iphone account.
she now has a new iphone and has linked this to that account and now she receives all my contacts apps etc when she syncs her account.
How do i create a new itunes account for my old iphone so that i can transfer data to my new iphone and keep the two seperate so that when she deletes all my contacts and apps and then syncs her phone again we can still be compatible.

iOS 5 & iCloud Tips: Sharing an Apple ID With Your Family

I got iphone5 two days ago and had taken some lovely photos. Tonight i tried to sync my ph to get my old contacts and have ended up with all my old contacts and apps and have lost my photos from today. I also have lost the iphone5 apps. Can i get back?

I got the Iphone5 a couple of days ago. Today i tooks some lovely photos and tonight i went through itunes to sync my phone and get my old contacts. In the process i have lost todays photos and the original iphone5 apps. Can i get them back?

Hi. The two user tips both describe a sequence of steps that should get your library from the point where it threatens to wipe data from your device to where it is syncing normally, while recovering as much information as possible. It may still be necessary to wipe and reload the device but this should only take place once all the data that can be recovered has been recovered.
Doing step 1 of 8 and then complaining things aren't the way you want them to be yet strikes me as premature...
Since you appear to have all your media content, and we are discussing an iPod classic, not an iOS device, the main worries are already taken care of. What's left is ratings, playcounts, playlist membership and checked status. Since your device holds only part of your library at best you could only recover the missing data for the content that is on the device using third party tools.
Recreating the previous checked/unchecked status of every track in your library from where you are now may not be that easy. Syncing with selected playlists has many advantages, one of which would have been that you would have a named playlist that could have been retrieved by 3rd party software if you had used this method.
You haven't explained what caused your problem in the first place, but if you have a Previous iTunes Libraries folder holding old copies of your iTunes database (generated with each iTunes update) then it would be possible to restore the most recent of these and then update the library with any changes in your media folder.
BTW Apple doesn't offer free support for this kind of issue with iTunes.

Followed ALL the online help and still ended up with a 120Gb paperweight

I had a problem with my iPod synchronization. It wouldn't do it at all. I had music on there but any time I tried to put new music or playlists on it wouldn't cooperate. I plugged in my iPod and it came up and then I selected it and pushed the "sync" button. Nothing happened. Absolutely nothing! I have been readin all the posts on here as well as all of the troubleshooting advice from the gurus and there hasnt been one single thing that has helped me. I even went so far as to restore my coputer and then reinstall everything and I still ended up with a migraine. I sincerely abhor having to pay hundreds upon hundreds of dollars for warranties and repairs when the only thing different from when it worked to now is the updates for iTunes. If it comes down to it I feel apple should give everyone a free pass for technical support every time they come out an update so that all of us apple users can continue to love the stuff we buy from them, instead of makign us pay for thier screw ups and then blaming the user.

I don't know if you have tried this yet, but you may have enabled manual music management. On the main iPod screen in iTunes, there is a checkbox near the bottom that says "Manually manage music and videos." Uncheck this to have whatever is on your computer automatically sync with your iPod.
If that does not work, check the music tab and see if the checkbox for "Sync music" is selected. If it is not, do so.
Hope this helps

All I wanted to do was buy a printer and I ended up with your rubbish
