C5150 and mac lion OS

I have a HP Photosmart C5150 All-In-One printer using the MAC LION OS. I suddenly cannot scan with out the computer telling me that there is another program using the scanner. I have turned all programs off and rebooted to no avail. Do I need to reload any drivers? I use to be able to scan, save, email and print all scans that I wanted in the past. Anybody got any ideas?

  • Windows 7 and Mac Lion partition maps don't match

    I recently upgraded the hard drive in my late 2008 Macbook, and I wanted to copy both my Windows 7 and OSX Lion partitions. I used Time Machine to back up my Lion partition and Windows Backup to back up 7. Then I switched the hard drives, restored Lion with no problem, partitioned the drive into two bigger parts than were on the old harddrive, and restored 7. My problem is this; Disk Utility in Lion shows the correct partition sizes (420 GB for Lion, 480ish for 7), but the Windows 7 Disk Management shows the old partition size (150ish for Lion, 160ish for 7). The rest is just shown as free space. I've tried using the "extend file system into free space" option in Windows 7's Disk Management, but that overwrites most of Lion's data (since Disk Management thinks that its free space). My question is how do I get the partition maps to sync up? I have rEFIt, but when I tell it to sync partition tables, Windows 7 crashes and won't start without a reboot. I'm starting to hate Windows 7...

    From your posts I assume that you have 3 drives:
    drive A - new internal with MacOSX and Boot Camp/Windows partitions.
    drive B - the original internal with MacOSX and Boot Camp/Windows partitions.
    Back up external drive(s) with TimeMachine  and Windows Backup.
    Forget the Backup Drive(s) for now.
    You will need a way to connect the original drive to the Mac via USB . If it is not in an enclosure then one of these connectors will do the job.

    I think you will need to use Winclone as Paragon is a windows startup application and I don't dee how you can do that unless you reinstall the original drive B (can't start Windows from an external drive). There is a Paragon recovery CD you can burn but I don't know what the limitations are with burning from the Mac. Maybe check with the company.
    Since drive-A has a good mac OSX install you need to clone the Boot Camp/Windows partition from the original drive-B to new drive-A. You should start up from drive-A and connect drive-B. Use Winclone to replace the drive-A Boot Camp partition with the original drive-B Boot Camp partition.
    If the Paragon recovery cd will work then you start from this disk and clone the original drive-B Boot Camp Partition to the new drive-A Boot Camp Partition.

  • GoLive CS2 and Mac Lion OS

    Does anyone know if GoLive CS2 (8.0.1) is compatible with the new Mac Lion OS? It works fine with Snow Leopard.

    CS2 was written for PPC processors. Lion will not run any programs written for PPC processors. Lion lacks Rosetta, the PPC emulator you have in Snow Leopard.

  • Print with HP laserjet CP 1025 color and Mac Lion 10.7.3

  • Flash and mac-lion future of conflict

    hello - i realize that apple and adobe have had a bit of a feud recently.
    i tried out a flash application that required a security question in the "Adobe Flash Player Settings" window, and the left-click no longer works.  this is apparently a very well documented problem:
    http://avchathq.com/blog/how-to-allow-access-to-webcam-in-flash-with-os-x-lion/
    my question:  is adobe going to address this issue anytime soon? 
    i am very surprised (and a little disappointed) that adobe has not been addressed yet, since lion has been out for a couple of months now!
    it seems the future of flash is in question because of apple-iPad and iPhone, but i didnt think there was a problem on the desktops and laptops too!
    thank you.

    This was a problem with Lion and the previous version of Flash Player (which was released, iirc, before Lion was released to the public) but it was addressed for most systems with our latest 10.3.183.7 build that is available here.  There is one known issue with a certain model iMac/video card combination (Model Identifier: iMac7,1/ATI,Radeon HD2600) that still exhibits this issue.  We're working closely with Apple and ATI to address it as soon as possible.

  • BT Cloud and Mac Lion 10.7. Software will not run.

    I have just downloaded the BT Cloud software on a new iMac running 10.8 Mountain Lion and it runs perfectly. However have done the same on an older iMac running 10.7 Lion and, whilst the software downloads and installs OK, it won't run. When clicking the BT Cloud icon nothing happens. Has anyone else found this to be a probem and have a solution?

    Im having the same problem and its not the first time... it happens alot...
    I download and once i restart and start to install it gets as far as to the writeing part and thats when it says it cant be installd.
    I do it manually and all i get is
    "Invalid Checksum"
    Great thing when you cant even upgrade the basesoftware..........

  • How can I print to my HP OfficeJet 6500 Wireless Printer from my iPhone 4S which used to work before AirPrint printers were even available? (running Mac Lion OS, all software and HP sw updates are all performed)

    How can I print to my HP OfficeJet 6500 Wireless Printer from my iPhone 4S which used to work (on prior iPhones) before AirPrint printers were even available? (running Mac Lion OS, all software and HP sw updates are all performed)
    I don't get it, I read one post about why would we have to buy an AirPrint Printer when we have used the "print to a wifi printer" just fine in the past?  Yes I feel that's exactly what's happening to me now too. I want to print from my iPhone and iPad to my WiFi Printer which is also now connected to my Airport Express WiFi network just fine. No problems.

    Very glad you added that bit of information because I see different problems similar to this.  I want to share with them what you did and hopefully you not only fixed your specific problem but you can lend some more advice to others with problems like this. Thanks!
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

  • Mac Lion and Cisco VPN client problems

    I just installed Lion 10.7 on my iMac and can no longer use the downloaded Cisco VPN client to connect to Microsoft Remote Desktop and access the PC in my company's office. When I try to launch the VPN client I get Error 51. I used to be able to enter a command in the Terminal as a workaround to use the VPN client when that happened, but that no longer works. I have tried booting into 32-bit mode; doesn't work. I tried to use the Cisco client built into Lion using settings provided by my company. When I try to connect I get the following message: "The negotiation with the VPN server failed. Verify the server address and try reconnecting."
    I have searched the web looking for a solution. My company's tech department is stumped; the Apple Geniuses haven't been able to help. Does anyone have any ideas how I can use either the downloaded Cisco VPN client or the client built into Lion?
    Sent from Cisco Technical Support iPad App

    Here is the link which you can use to configure the inbuilt VPN client in MAC Lion.
    http://glazenbakje.wordpress.com/2011/07/28/how-to-create-a-cisco-vpn-connection-in-apple-mac-os-x-lion/
    Make sure you configure the attributes correctly.
    Secondly the inbuilt VPN client code of Lion is made in collaboration with Cisco so there will not be any issues of compatibility.

  • I have a mac book pro with Boot Camp that also runs windows.  I upgraded to Lion and somehow it crashes the mac side peridoically.  I am told I need to "clean" it and reinstall lion using the recovery drive.  will that delete the windows partition too??

    I have a mac book pro with Boot Camp that also runs windows.  I upgraded to Lion and now the mac side crashes/freezes periodically, especially iphoto.  I am told by the genius' that I probably need to "clean" it and reinstall lion using the "recovery drive" which resets everything back to default and reinstalls the lion operating system.  My question is will this also delete the "windows" partition drive and all that data too.  If so that will be a huge pain in the ___ to back up and reinstall boot camp and windows. I want to shoot the lion.

    There is no system like Acronis for the Mac platform. You can try using the buiilt in Disk Utility to create an Image of the complete Mac drive but I have found that this does not work very well as on tryiing to restore it gives errors sometimes.
    You can use SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to create a bootable Clone of your system partition. But that is only for the System partition and not the complete drive.
    If you use Boot Camp to install Windows on your Mac neither of those two programs will clone the Windows side.
    Neither will Disk utility as Mac's can not create or write to a NTFS partition. So some other program is need for that.

  • I just downloaded lion how do I install it on my other iMac and Mac books.

    And how many computers can I install them on? Thanks.

    If you read the applicable paragraphs of the licensing agreement, it is not at all a grey area - at least as far as the rules Apple has decided to set. It's just that most people don't read the licensing agreement.
    And, to make things worse, there are two different sets of rules:
    1. If you upgraded from another (earlier) OS, the Lion license is NOT transferable to the buyer of your Mac. Original OS to be re-installed and disks supplied to buyer - doesn't matter how you upgraded.
    2. If you purchase a Mac with Lion preinstalled, you may make a onetime transfer of Lion to the buyer of the Mac if you sell it.
    You can download the SLA here:
    http://www.apple.com/legal/sla/
    Add: As for machines being for sale on ebay, etc: simply ask the seller if it came with Lion; if not, does he know that he has to supply the previous OS disks and wipe Lion. That would be what I'd do if I were to ever get a Mac on ebay (I know better than to trust buying one there).
    I'm glad I only buy from the Apple Online Store! I think I'd go mad trying to figure out all the legalities! lol
    Thanks for the info, though, I think a few people will be interested in how this works

    yes you need the updates and patches.
    Only some of the drivers that Windows will automatically install at times
    and always make sure to insure it is using restore points
    do all the maintenance andsuch as normal
    use MS Security Essentials for AV is really top notch
    Clean disk space
    Use WinClone new program to inisure you have a restore image

    lower your font size unless you have difficulty
    MS Security Essentials is excellent
    Then again maybe time to investigate Windows 8 RP (which uses Defender)

    Windows has a software updater built into Windows and when you install the Boot Camp drivers then it will install an Apple software updater also. I believe Windows is set to automatically download and install your updates as does the Apple software Updater. They both will update the individual files it needs to periodically.
    "Microsoft updates" and "Windows updates" are basically the same thing in Windows. Are you talking about the "Windows support software" when downloading from Boot Camp Assistant? Apple installs a software updater for it's Boot Camp drivers in Windows 7 so you can do it manually or automatically.
    The "Hot Fix" your referring to is only for certain motherboards built from other Windows only computer manufacturers and does NOT pertain to any Apple computers.
    If you have a problem with your computer then it's best to ask a specific question so we can help better.

  • I currently run Mac Pro with three hard drives. Can I dual boot or even triple boot with Snow Leaopard on one drive and Mountain Lion or Lion on others?

    I currently run Mac Pro with three hard drives. Can I dual boot or even triple boot with Snow Leopard on one drive and Mountain Lion or Lion on others?
    I need to keep Snow Leopard so that I can run some old softward.

    If you are careful you can put at least two on one drive, having Recovery from Lion and Mountain Lion on their own drives though.
    CCC can clone Lion Recovery - great for moving or backup.
