Applications that came with Epson printer on Win XP respond "Can't open... PowerPC apps no longer supported. Were they in Snow Leopard before I upgraded?

Epson pinter came with photo apps that ran under Windows XP. Loaded onto iMac 27", they don't respond with "Not compatable with Mac" but rather with "You can't open the application ..... whichever one ..... because PowerPC applications are no longer supported". Were they supported under Snow Leopard OS before I upgraded to Lion? Why "NO LONGER" SUPPORTED?

Were they supported under Snow Leopard OS before I upgraded to Lion?
Yes, using something called Rosetta.
Why "NO LONGER" SUPPORTED?
OS X 10.7 does not support Power PC applications. I do not speak for Apple, but it appears they determined that since most applications are written Universal Binary, there was no reason to incur the expense of maintenance in the new OS X.
Many manufacturers have provided updates for older equipment (some have not). I suggest you either run software update andor check with Epson.

Do i need to use the phone line that came with the printer to fax paperwork or can I buy a new one?

This question was solved.

Hi Willcarter,
It is all up to you. You can use the phone line which came with the printer or you can get a new one. It does need to be a 2-wire phone line though.
Thanks

You didn't state what model curve you have (8300, 8310, 8320, 8350, 8520?), but download from your carrier same OS that is on your device now (Look at Options > About, third line down beginning with a "v.4.xxx") and install that OS to your PC.
Then, run Desktop Manager > Application Loader, and check the box for the Task app.

Okay, look under Purchases:

Just upgraded to Mavericks and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported. Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks?

Just upgraded my 2009 iMac (3.06 Ghz, core 2 duo $GB 1067 Mhz DDR3) to Mavericks OSX 10.9.5 and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported. Printer says the software was improperly installed. Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks or do I need to go back to Mountain Lion or Snow Leopard?

It's not clear whether your printer is included in the Apple list - there is an Officejet 6100 and a couple of other types. Go to the page linked to above and use the browser search for 6100.
I'm afraid HP are notorious for not supporting older printers - I had the same problem. Probably they hope you will buy another printer (I did, but it was a Canon). I did look on HP's site and couldn't see a driver - you could give it a try (make sure you have the exactly correct printer name):
http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/support-search.html?tab=1#/qryterm=HP6100&search_search type=s-002
Alternatively ou could try Gutenprint (open source software):
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
I found it would indeed drive the printer, but the colour dithering wasn't very satisfactory and the duplex printing bolt-on wouldn't work. However as Gutenprint is free it's worth trying to see if it's any good for you.

Thanks

Hi @nirmal007,
Welcome to the HP Support Forum! I understand you're having cartridge issues with your HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 5525 e-All-in-One Printer. I would like to assist you with clearing up that error state and have some troubleshooting steps that may resolve the issue.
I recommend you try the following steps before you consider purchasing a new black ink cartridge. Firstly after you've confirmed that your ink levels are not the problem (example - the level is above 10%), try a 'hard reset':
Secondly:
Make sure that the ink cartridges are properly vented and seated correctly
If the vent on the top of the ink cartridge is clogged or obstructed, the ink cartridge might not work properly. Follow these steps to make sure that the ink cartridges are properly vented and seated correctly.
Press the Power button to turn on the printer, if it is not already turned on. Wait until the printer is idle and silent before continuing.
Open the cartridge access door. The carriage moves to the access area.
Figure : Open the cartridge access door
Press the tab on the front of the cartridge inward to release it, and then pull up on the cartridge to remove it from the slot.
Figure : Remove the cartridge from the slot
Examine the vent area on each cartridge, above the HP logo on the top of the cartridge.
Figure : Vent area on the top of the cartridge
If the cartridge still has the orange pull-tab attached, pull to remove it.
Figure : Orange pull tab
If the vent is clogged, use a straight pin to gently remove excess adhesive from the vent.
Figure : Clean the clogged vent with a pin
Clogged vent
With a straight pin, gently remove excess adhesive from the vent
Unclogged vent
With the nozzle and contacts facing down, slide the cartridge into its slot. Press down on the cartridge until it clicks into place.
note:Make sure that each cartridge is installed in the correct slot. Match the shape of the icon and the color of the cartridge with the slot that has the same shaped icon and color.
Figure : Reinsert the cartridge
Repeat these steps to inspect the vents on each of the cartridges.
Make sure that each cartridge is firmly in place in its slot. Run your finger along the top of the cartridges to feel for any that are protruding, and if any are, press down firmly until each cartridge snaps into place.
Close the cartridge access door.
Figure : Close the cartridge access door

Thirdly, try cleaning your cartridge contacts:
Manually cleaning the print cartridge contacts
Follow the steps below to manually clean the print cartridge contacts:
Gather the following items to clean the contacts:
Distilled water (tap water may contain contaminants that can damage the print cartridge)
Cotton swabs or other soft, lint-free material that will not stick to the print cartridge
Open the print cartridge door.
Remove the print cartridge and place it on a piece of paper with the ink nozzle plate facing up.
caution:
Do not to touch the copper-colored contacts or the ink nozzle plate with your fingersFigure : Do not touch copper-colored contacts
caution:Do not leave the print cartridge outside the printer for more than 30 minutes. Ink nozzles exposed to the air longer than this may dry out and cause printing problems.
Lightly moisten a cotton swab with distilled water and squeeze any excess water from the swab.
Gently wipe the copper-colored contacts with the cotton swab.
caution:Do not touch the ink nozzle plate. Touching the ink nozzle plate will result in clogs, ink failure, and bad electrical connections.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 until no ink residue or dust appears on a clean swab.
Insert the print cartridge in the printer, and then close the print cartridge door.

If you've tried all of the above noted steps and you're still unable to use the black cartridge, you may need to pick up a new one. Let me know if this helps. Best of luck!

Not possible to start applications that came with X-FI Plati

Hi all,
I have a problem with all the Creative software that came with my new X-FI Platinum (that i bought today). Whenever i start an application (like audio console or THX console) i get an error message that no compatible audio devices are found on my system. I've installed my X-FI with the CD that came with the product, and also tried to update my Audio card to the latest available drivers.. i even tried th new X-Fi drivers from Windows update
Before this card a used an Audigy 2 SZ (which worked perfect btw, but i want to move to Vista soon so that why i bought the X-FI), which i de-installed properly and removed all software before installing the X-Fi.
Could it be that there are leftovers somewhere that conflict with the X-Fi Creative software suite?.
I hope someone can help me out.
To summ up what system i have:
Intel Core 2 duo @ 2.4ghz (E6600)
Asus P5W DH deluxe MB/ Bios 707
2048Mb Mem
nvidia 8800GTS
Aegea PhysX card
WinXp sp2
Directx 9c (june 2007)
Thanks, Ramses

Ok.. apparently the driver which i downloaded from Creative was somehow not compatible with the applications.. i removed all apps and driver and sweeped my system with driver cleaner.. also de-installed the F-XI from hardware manager.. reinstalled all apps + driver from the installation CD and now it works.. Creative apparently uploaded a driver to my region (europe/netherlands)which is not suitable for the X-FI platinum.

PowerPC apps no longer support - error message from Elements that I bought yesterday

Well, you've clearly not test your code for several years.
I bought Elements from Apple' Appstore yesterday, I did an hour of work, saved the file as a PSD file, when I opened it today I got an error message saying that the file couldn't be opened as POWERPC applications were no longer supported.
POWERPC!!!!!!!??????????? WTF??????????????
So - I want a refund.
In return I'll delete your joke of a product from my 13 month old INTEL MacBookPro and never purchase another Adobe product.
Hope that's a deal.
Thanks
Neil

Do you think you're talking to customer support, are you just venting, or would you like to try to solve this? If the first, this is just a user to user forum and you're just talking to other adobe customers here, not adobe, and nobody here can give anyone a refund. For that, you would need to use the Report a Problem link on your apple store receipt.
On the other had, if you want to try to figure out the problem we'll try to help.

Getting msg that version of Safari no longer supported on my mac snow leopard, ver. 10.6.8. I have no extensions

How do I satisfy request to upgrade browser - version of Safari no longer supported? I have a mac, snow leopard, ver. 10.6.8 & I have no extensions & upgraded software from Apple pull-down menu. Msg is still there.

You need to upgrade the computer's OS or switch browsers.
To upgrade, open the Mac App Store and try downloading Mavericks. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

HT1338 I just purchased an iMac and an HP LaserJet M1217nfw printer. The iMac will not recognize the disc that came with the printer. What can I do? This is my first Mac and just might be my last. Installation has not been fun. I would appreciate any

I just purchase an iMac and an HP LaserJet M1217nfw printer. I could not install with the installation disk that was furnished by HP. This is my first Mac product and I'm just not sure what I'm doing...help! I don't know if it's a mountain lion, a tiger, or a dog! The box says OS X. I really need help. Thanks for your time.

What Mac operating system are you running on your iMac?
Are you certain they're compatible?
Have you checked with HP to see if there's a newer driver?
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=4 075472
In addition, I haven't loaded on any software with my last 3 printers. They just work without them, IMHO.
But a current driver would be necessary.

There is an error when I want to reinstall the applications that came with my mac (after having reinstalled the Mac OS X DVD). What can I do?

I erased my hard disk and then installed the Mac OS X DVD. After having done this I wanted to install the applications too, for which I introduced the Applications DVD. The DVD is recognized and I follow the instructions given. On the last step, the installation, the Installer shows me a Message. It says that there is an error, and that I should contact the Software developer. It is very weird, because there is no error number or any other explanation. If somebody could help, I would be enormously thankful.

If you have a backup (and I hope you did one as before any potentially dangerous task), you can restore it.
If you don't, but have a recent system, you may try to boot in recovery mode.
If you can't, you have to get another computer (or simply your Windows Mac) to "burn" your system image either on a DVD or a flashdisk (.dmg are just .iso so you can change suffix).
Anyway, each and every data you had on you HDD, including 3rd party apps, would be lost.

HT201412 My apps are all unresponsive like my PDF Printer, Evernote, Skrappy. I can't open the apps.

Why all my apps like PDF Printer, Evernote, Skrappy are not working? If I tap the icon it doesn't do anything. They are all unresponsive. I restarted my IPad se veral times already and they still unresponsive.

If it's all downloaded apps from the store that you are having a problem with then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

Ink cartridge that came with printer

I use the ink cartridge that came with the printer and it will not print, it tells me to load the ones that came with the printer, and it was loaded, but it will not let me print it continues to tell me to load cartridges that came with the printer how can I ever use my printer. I've had this printer for 6 months and have not been able to print.

Please read this post then provide some details. What printer model?
Some printers require setup cartridges for the first setup of the printer. Has the printer never worked for you? You will need to Contact HP for support. If you are in the US call 1-800-HPINVENt.
