Bought a printer that came with a cd. I downloaded everything

I have a imac 21.5 that doesn't have a cd drive. Today I bought a Canon pixma mg2220 printer that came with a cd. I went on canon and downloaded everything. I restarted my computer but don't see the printer listed. Should I download it again? Should I get a usb cable and hook it up tp my computer? What sgould I do? Thanks.

It's a USB only printer so you definitely need to connect the printer to your iMac.
If you haven't done so, try setting up the printer.
Open System Preferences > Print & Scan > Print
Click + to add the printer then follow the instructions.

Not available thru Apple in HK; avail in US for addl US$79+tax if I am there t pick it up or with shipping (!!) we are talking a $100 addl cord expense on top of the $1,700 cost of the MA.  Apple: get to understand the needs of your customers: they are increasingly global.  (BTW: an adapter kit that needs to be used 100% of time is NOT the answer as it just creates a Mickey-Mouse solution.)

  • I bought a MBPro which came with Lion installed,i also wanted to have a copy of installation disc so i used mac app store.Normally if an app is already bought there is a warning or a sign that informs the buyer.I've charged for this download is it normal?

    Hi ,i bought a MacBookPro which came with Lion installed on it (i have registered my mac book pro right after i bought it), i also wanted to have a copy of the installation disc in case of a crash, so i used mac app store to get it.Normally if an app is already bought (for iphone app store) there is a warning or a sign that informs the buyer, than the app store lets the buyer to re-download/re-install the app.I've charged for this download afterwards, because i was using virtual credit card, there was not enough money transferred to that card during that download but the app store let me download it anyway. I haven't charged before the download, the app store first let me to download it then it requested that amount of money for next download wich it was a free app. Can anybody enlight me? thanks

    Hi ...
    i also wanted to have a copy of the installation disc in case of a crash
    If you have problems with your Mac you use Lion Recovery
    However, you can create your own installation disc >  How to create an OS X Lion installation disc | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews
    Since Lion came pre installed on your Mac, the App Store doesn't not recognize that as a purchase so you if you want to re download Lion to create a boot disk you will have to pay for it. You can then re download Lion on all your authorized Macs for free.

  • I am using a MacBook Pro and am trying to print double sided copies on the HP Deskjet 3054 that came with it. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

    I am using a MacBook Pro and am trying to print double sided copies on the HP Deskjet 3054 that came with it. Can anyone tell me how to do this? I am a total MacBook nube and can use any help you may offer! Thank you so much.

    How you enable double-sided printing can depend on the applications from whick you wish to print. Example: if I print to my HP PhotoSmart  from Safari, I get this print dialog box:
    (Edit: OOPS! Note that I forgot to switch printers when i took the scene-shots, so ignore the "Brother" reference. It's should look the same for your HP.
    Note the selection labled "Safari" near the bottom. If I change that form "safari to "Layout: I get this:
    Note the option for two-sided printing appears for your selection. If I print from Word, the box is different:
    The "Copies & Pages" option can be changed to "Layout" when you click it, again allowing the selection of two-sided printing.
    If you tell us what applciaiton is vexing you, we may be able to give better-focused information.

    I had to delete everything on my computer and install the operating system again , but I had to install Snow Leopard because it was the cd that came with the computer when I bought it. The problem is that I had already paid for the OS Lion and even had upgraded to the Mavericks . I do not think it's fair to have to pay again and I would like to upgrade my operating system without having to pay again for the same system.

    Hi anatuta, 
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like you are trying to upgrade your Mac to a newer version of OS X, after completing a fresh install of Snow Leopard. 
    If you have already purchased and downloaded OS X Lion and Mavericks, you should be able to find these items in the Purchased section of the Mac App Store. 
    You may find the steps in this article helpful with finding the items:

    If you do not see the items in the Purchased section, they may be hidden:

    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.

    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.
    Source
    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!

  • So I bought a Used copy of final cut pro 7, but i cant use it because I need a serial number and the serial number that came with it doesn't work. What do I do?

    I bought my copy from ebay and when i got it I installed it, but every time i click on final cut pro 7 it asks for a serial number and when i put the on that came with it, it tells me it an invalid serail number. It is kinda making me want ti throw my mac out the window and just stick with windows.

    First, find out if you bought an "Upgrade" version, or a "Full" version.
    If you have an "Upgrade" version, it will require two serial numbers to work - first, the serial number of the last "Full" version you are upgrading from, then the serial number of the "Upgrade" software you are installing.
    If you have bought a "Full" version, see this KB article with help entering serial numbers in the Pro Apps:

  • Problem with software that came with Pima Mx 472 printer

    I installed my image garden software that came with printer.  No problems till tonight when I opened software to scan some photos.  Before I could scan the first photo, the program crashes.  I reopened and scan 1 photo.  Program crashed.  I reopened 3rd time, scanned to more photos.  While renaming the first photo, program crashed.
    Verison is 2.1  My computer is win7 64 bit.  Anyone else having same problem.

    My assumption is that since you're not on the Verizon network currently and you don't have access to the network, you can't OTA the update.
    And since you don't have the USB data cable, you won't be able to connect your phone to your computer to update.  My best suggestion... Get a data cable. There should be someplace nearby you in Germany where you can get an inexpensive data cable.
    Then go about backing up your phone with the desktop manager and then update via the DM as well.
    No, you can't be on TV.
    Yes, this camera is heavy..
    Go bother the reporter...I'm busy!!

  • I bought a used macbook pro that came with xcode

    I bought a used macbook pro that came with xcode, this means I can develop Apps but to publish in App Store needed pay developer fees? Or must pay these fees from now?

    All you have are the basic tools. Without a paid program in your name, you cannot distribute apps to the store.

  • 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.

  • I purchased my iMac using the same (and only) Apple ID I use to purchase apps. Third-party apps update fine, but the apps that came with my iMac (iPhoto, iMovie, etc) bring up a message saying I have to log in with the account I used to purchase them.

    I used my only Apple ID to purchase my iMac (Intel-based one).  I've never been able to update core apps that came with it.  I can update third party apps I've bought (like Coda), but when I try to update Garage Band, iPhoto, iMovie and so on, a popup message appears saying "You have updates available for other accounts" and "Log in with the account you used to purchase this app in order to update it", or similar (see screenshot above).
    The OS seems to get its updates fine - it's just the core apps from the App Store.
    I've only ever had one Apple ID, so I have no idea what to do.  I went to ask the Genius bar at my local Apple store, and they couldn't help, and insisted that I must have purchased the iMac using a different account, but I definitely didn't.  There are a few posts on non-Apple forums of this happening to other people, so it must be a rare bug.
    I'm a little concerned it may affect my ability to update from Lion to Mountian Lion.  Can anyone help?

    Have you done a Disk Repair and a Disk Permissions Repair?
    If that doesn't resolve the problem I would suggest calling customer support about this issue as it is most likely on their (Apple's) end that the problem exists.
