Can not get MacBook Pro to wirelessly connect to Deskjet 2512

I have installed the software 3 times and I still can not connect to the printer wirelessly. The directions for converting from USB to wireless instruct to go to Finder/Applications/HP then choose my printer. The file only containsDevice Utilities, HP Scan, HP Uninstaller and HP Utility so I can go no further with the instructions. I installed the drivers again just to make sure that I hadn't missed something. Still no connection. Help. I have two of these printers and need them both connected.
Thanks

Hi sbritt,
The Deskjet 2512 does not supports wireless printing. You will need to either connect directly to your computer with the USB, or purchase a wireless print server.
More information can be found here in the "Connectivity" section: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03244829&tmp_track_link=ot_faqs/top_issues/en_u...

Can not get MacBook Pro 10.7.2 connected to Panasonic LCD projector to work

Any suggestions on how to get MacBook Pro 10.7.2 working with a LCD Panasonic Projector Model # PT-LB10NTU?

Thanks for the replys.
After spending an hour plus, uninstalling and reinstalling drivers and still not able to print, my husband, sits down, plugs in an ethernet cable, reinstalls the printer with the ip, and it prints. !!! I'd already done that , but that was before I deleted the preferences and installed the Gutenprint driver. I think it was the new Gutenprint driver that did it.

Can not get WET200 Bridge to wireless connect to EA6900 Router

Hello,
I have a connectivity problem with my LinkSys WET200 Wireless-G business Ethernet Bridge
SN: MVP007800846. Any trouble shooting suggestions appreciated.
My system is Dell Vostro 1500 laptop, with Windows XP SP3
Basis problem: When I try to connect wireless to my NEW LynkSys EA6900 router; I receive the error “Limited or no connection” from the cable connection icon in the system tray. I have tried several things ( restart computer, restart WET200) to make a valid connection with no success.
BACKGROUND and what I have completed:
I replaced my old LinkSys WRT router with a new LynkSys EA6900 router. The EA6900 is up and running (after a few set up problems) and able to connect to both PC and MAC laptops and Android and Mac phones plus a couple of wireless printers.
To set up the WET200, I connected an Ethernet ( ENet) cable from the Wet200 PoE port to a unused port on the EA6900 router. I used my PC desktop Firefox browser to access the WET200 setup screens by entering the WET200 default IP address in the Firefox address bar. I connected to the WET200, entered the default username and password and could see all the setup screens.
I selected the WIRELESS, Basic setup, did a sight survey and my EA6900 network name and security setting was present. I entered the network name in the Basic Wireless setup and changed the WET200 security setting to match the network security setting.
I removed the ENet cable connecting the WET200 to the EA6900 router. Power recycled the WET200. I then connected an ENet cable from Port 3 on the WET200 to the Enet cable connector on my PC laptop.
I then received the error “Limited or no connection” from the cable connection icon in the system tray.
Thanks, krazykat1

Hello krazykat
Need to ask a few questions, so I understand the network and the area this is in. How far apart are the router and WET? Did this work with your previous router, what kind was it? Normally we (Small Business) can not guarantee compatibly with non small business equipment.
I have seen WDS work between a WET 200 and other WET200's, also with some of the other older Small Business routers, like WRV200, and 210.
The main problem is most likely that the EA6900 is too new. I say that because the EA6900 is an AC router, the WET200 only does "G". One of the major components required for WDS to work is that Radio Chipsets match and well as channel, radio signal G to G, G/N to G/N, N to N.
I am afraid that there is too much age difference between your products.

Can not get MacBook Pro to display on Sony HDTV LCD

So I bought a DVI to RGB (Y/Pb/Pr) cable. I have it hooked up and use Detects Displays. It detects a VGA connection but it will not show a picture on the TV. I have verified I am on the right input on the display and checked all just in case. I can't use DVI to HDMI because the TV only has one HDMI and it is being used by my cable signal. There is another input that is labeled RGB in the Sony manual but I can not find a DVI to RGB that looks like the plug configuration on the back of the TV. I would like to stay away from S-video and everything else because they do not support HD. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried a DVI-VGA (D-SUB) cable? It does actually support any resolution supported by both the display and the computer (including HD). This will deliver the same signal as your analog component RGB cable. I use this with my SONY HDTV every day, works very well.

Can not get my Sungale Tablet to connect to wifi.

Can not get my Sungale Tablet to connect to wifi.

You need to get your wireless settings first. Get the SSID (wireless network name) and security key (password) for your network. Are you using a Linksys router? Follow these instructions to retrieve your wireless network's info: Checking the Linksys router’s wireless settings. Then on your tablet, go to Wifi under Settings. Select your network and type in the password. If your tablet is an Android, here's how: Connecting your Android™ tablet to your wireless network.

I used the wrong password for my belkin wifi. Now that I know the correct password I can not get pass the unable to connect or join message. I have turned off all the options such as wifi and join and also put my touch to sleep.. but nothing seems to work

I used the wrong password to join my new belkin wifi. Now that I have the correct password, I can not get the to the join screen with the space to type in the password. I continue to get the unable to join message. I have put the touch to sleep and I have turned on and off the wifi and join options on the Network screen page. Does anyone know how to get pass this block of the wrong password to a new page that will allow me to type in the correct password. I see there is a option that asks if I want to reset the network settings.. is that what I should do? and what does it erase when I do that? Thanks for any input anyone has.

Yes. Reset network settings. Head to Settings -> General -> Reset and tap Reset Network Settings.

How can I fix my MacBook Pro losing wireless connectivity with Epson Stylus NX625 printer. It will work once and then I get an error saying the printer is not connected.

I can connect to my Epson Stylus NX625 through my wireless network and print a page or two, but then the next time I go to print it says that the printer is not connected. Any fixes? I have tried deleting the printer and re-adding it to my MacBook Pro OS X version 10.9.4, but sometimes it doesn't even find it, and other times it says it is connected, but when I go to print it says not connected. Very frustrated. I have also installed the latest drivers, etc.
What now?

Your computer is going to run hot while playing CPU/GPU intensive games - it should heat up and the fans should be noticably loud. As to why it's 'crashing' - can you post a kernel panic log? You may have some third-party kexts that are causing the problems.

Can't get officeJet Pro 8600 wireless to connect

This is so frustrating. I just bought a HP Officejet Pro 8600 and am trying to set up the wireless connection to my ATT-supplied Netgear 7550 router. I keep getting a message that "MAC address filtering is enabled on your wireless router" even though I have checked in the router setup and I am certain that it is not (it clearly says MAC is "not enabled"). I talked to the ATT tech support and they agreed--we even hard-rebooted the router and re-installed it and it seems to be working as intended. I have unplugged and re-plugged the printer. I have spent over 2 hours and keep getting the same message.
Help?
Oh, I have also tried the HP Dr. software taht has been recommended to others, but it does not find my printer.

Thanks for the reply. I believe I already tried that once. I added the printer MAC address and selected "allow this address" or something like that. It did not seem to help, so I went back and disabled the MAC filtering completely. But, I can try that again. Certainly won't hurt.

Lexar USB plugged into Macbook Pro stops wireless connection from working

Just purchased a Macbook Pro recently. Noticed today that when a USB stick was plugged in (Lexar 32 GB USB 3.0) was plugged in, the wireless networking could not connect to any network services.
Finder kept trying to get to the network storage and failing or timing out. Time Machine failed to reach the server.
Unplugging the USB stick fixed the problem.
Anyone seen this before?
Chris

Thanks again for your help Rod!
One of the first things I tried was different combinations of devices to see if it may have been the device just not powering up. The main device I use is an official Apple wired keyboard, because at home I connect my MBP to my monitor and use a separate keyboard and mouse. I have tried other devices too with the same result, they only work when the dock is connected. I have tried connecting my iPhone via USB cable, i have a 16GB SanDisk Cruzer flash drive, which only lights up if the dock is connected, and I have a 4 port USB hub with a power LED on it, which again only lights up when the dock is connected.
I looked in system profiler, and it says the USB ports are there, but doesn't recognise any devices plugged in, other than the dock. However, when the dock is plugged in, for example, it recognises the Apple keyboard in the other port.
I took two screen shots, one of system profiler without the dock plugged in (USB keyboard still plugged in but not showing up), and another of when I plugged the dock in.
Without Dock:
With Dock:
It might be worth pointing out that the HDD dock has two USB ports on it, which is what is highlighted in the second pic.
I have also tried rebooting the computer with devices already attached but with the same result again. I've tried booting it with the dock and the keyboard attached, with just the keyboard, with just the dock, but either way unless the dock is connected, nothing else will work via USB.
I just want to say thanks again Rod, it's very kind of you to spend your time trying to help me, and it is really appreciated!
I'm going to contact Apple support shortly and see if they can offer a solution, or see if I can send it in for repair, which I am reluctant to do seeing as it's my only computer
Cheers!

IMac does not recognize MacBook Pro over wireless network

Hi,
I have an iMac running MAC OS X version 10.5.7. It is connected to the Internet via an Airport Extreme Base Station. I just bought a 13-in MacBook Pro that runs the same version of MAC OS X. I connect it to the same wireless network. The MacBook Pro recognizes the iMac (there is an icon of the iMac in the Shared Section of the Finder window). The iMac, however, does not recognize the MacBook Pro. If you have come across this problem and have a solution, I would be most grateful for your advice.
Regards,
MTL

I'm having a similar problem with an Intel iMac and a G4 iBook (both running Leopard 10.5.7) since the recent replacement of the iMac's hard drive. Occasionally the iMac will 'see' and allow me to connect to the laptop, but often the connection just drops out, and then I can't find the iBook any more. The iBook, on the other hand, can't detect the iMac at all. I know I have all the settings right - before the HD replacement, everything worked fine in both directions. Interestingly, in the 'WINS' settings in network preferences, the iMac's 'name' bears no relation (just a list of numbers and letters) to the computer's actual name, while the iBook uses the first word of its own name. It's frustrating, as I have to synchronise my work between the two on a daily basis. I can't get them to connect via ethernet cable either.

Can't Get MacBook Pro and Mac Pro to Network

I have a MacBook Pro (2008 - 2.5 Ghz. Core 2 Duo with 4 Gb of RAM running OS X 10.6.7) that I have been connecting to my Mac Pro (2005 - 2 2.66 Ghz Xeon with 20 Gb of RAM running OS X 10.6.7) through an Ethernet switch on my school's network. This has worked without a hitch for years, but when I upgraded to 10.6.7 recently, the MacBook and Mac Pro fail to network. On the MacBook Pro, the Mac Pro's icon doesn't show in the shared area, and on the Mac Pro, I can see the icon for the MacBook Pro, but when I click on the icon to connect, I get the message that "Connection Failed There was an error connecting to the server (name of my MacBook Pro). Check the server name or IP address, and then try again." I have tried a direct connect using the "Connect to Server" under the Go menu on both machines, using their IP addresses, but no luck. Is there something I need to re-set to get these two to talk again? I have other Macs on the same network that my MacBook and my Mac Pro can see, and both machines can connect to them. They just can't connect to each other.
Thanks in advance for any ideas you might have on how to fix this.

I fixed the problem by re-setting the default values for my VirusBarrier X6 anti-virus program.

Apple MacBook Pro dropping wireless connection

Hi,
We have many MacBook pros that are having a hard time staying connected on wireless. Often times a user can be connected for only minutes at a time. Our wireless environment consists of 1142s and 3502 series access points. We use WPA2 Enterprise for authentication via ACS server 5.x.
The Windows 7 machines usually never have an issue. Can someone please provide some insight.?
*we use Lion OSX on our Macs.

MacBook Pro Retina Wireless Connection problem

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro Retina (late 2013) w AC wireless capability, and I have not been able to connect to my wireless network at work. Other computers, including my previous MacBook Pro (mid 2008) and my iPad 3 are able to connect to the work network without problems and I have no problems connecting my new MBP to my home or other networks. I have Windows 8 on a Boot Camp partition, and when my MBP is booted under windows, it still does not connect. My MBP is running OS X 10.9.4. My work wireless network uses a Linksys Wireless G Access Point model WAP54G v.2. Rebooting the router does not help. When my MBP tries to connect to the work wireless network, the status in Network Preferences says "Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.216.147 and will not be able to connect to the Internet." Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Jackso,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
For troubleshooting a self-assigned IP address, I would suggest reading over and using the following article as a reference and resource.
Internet connection does not work with an IP address space of 169.254.xxx.xxx from ISP, router, or manual configuration
