Can't connect to network PC printer with Mac Pro

I have the only Mac in the house. My wife's HP Deskjet 5650 is the network printer for the family. When I try to add this printer to my Mac, it sees the workgroup, her computer and her printer.... but it won't print. It does not show a location, although under the GENERAL tab when I click on her printer icon in my Dock it shows a URL: smb://... address. Putting this smb address in LOCATION doesn't help.
How do I get connected? Thanks for any input I get.

First you need to make sure you are trying to connect to the correct network SSID (name). So click on the Airport icon in the menu bar and scroll down and select the name of the network. If a network requires a password it doesn't mean it's not free.

  • Can I use Dell AOI 922 printer with MacBook Pro?

    Can I use Dell AOI 922 printer with MacBook Pro?

    Cisco:
    Very helpful!   My set up was Mac/ Lion trying to Print off a Dell Photo A10 922
    Lion does not store any Lexmark, nor dow Apple, but I went to the lexmark site, and found this-
    http://support.lexmark.com/index?productCode=LEXMARK_X5270&page=product&locale=E N&userlocale=EN_US#1
    Downloaded that, then hooked up the printer, Cmd-P, and the Mac found the drivers I had loaded.
    Works fine.  Now when I go to my sisters, I can print!
    byw, I'm probably just a Level 2  "GIYF"er, but your the only one ( of MANY folks) who thought to search Lexmart. I've seen posts by MANY geeks saying a Mac could not print to ANY Dell printer.
    Nice job,

  • Which free printer with Mac Pro?

    Know any review sites that will review the printers Apple is offering free with Powerbook Pro purchases this month? Or can anyone recommend a good, reliable one, esp for photos? Tks

    I choose my printers based on:
    1) Will I be able to afford the ink? Generally this means that third-party, after-market cartridges must be available for this printer. I check to see if that is so by going to supermediastore dot com and 123inkjets dot com.
    2) Does it have a simple paper path. I generally prefer Epson for this. A 180-degree paperpath is going to generate a lot of jams. Watch out for HP in this regard, and some Brothers.
    3) Do I print regularly enough that clogged nozzles will not be a problem? If I print daily, or at least several times a week, then Epson will be a good choice. Only pick Epson if you are a regular printer. The nozzles are built into the Epson print-head, and these do not get replaced each time you change carts. But it does mean that you can buy 2-4 dollar replacement carts!
    4) Printers that are given away with computers often have the most expensive cartidges -- so beware.
    For people who print regularly enough that clogging won't be a problem, I'd suggest going to the Epson refurb site. Real bargains there!

  • Can I use a usb bluetooth adaptor with mac pro which already has bluetooth?

    Hi All,
    I have an early 2008 Mac Pro. I have a bluetooth sound device that I'd like to use across the other side of the house. The problem is that the in-built bluetooth transceiver is limited in area and i have a usb transceiver that has 15m broadcast range. Is there a way i can make my Mac Pro use the usb dongle and not the internal hardware..?

    You can disable the internal bluetooth radio. As long as you have drivers for your USB Bluetooth adapter you should be able to use it.

    hi, i have downloaded canaon utility for macbook pro 10.7.2 but whenver i connect the camera it fails, kindly help...

    There's a disk coming with the camera - have you installed all relevant software on your Mac?
    Your signature says you are on OS X 10.7.2 - is that true?
    Anyway, on the Canon website(s) you'll find updates for their apps and drivers. Make sure you have what's compatible with your OS X, nothing more and nothing less.
    Confirm?

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • IF YOU CAN'T CONNECT TO THE MUSIC STORE WITH ITUNS5.0.1

    IF YOU CAN'T CONNECT TO THE MUSIC STORE WITH ITUNES5.0.1 TYR GOING TO THE DOWNLOAD SECTION ABOVE GO TO PAGE 2 AND DOWNLOAD BONJOUR AS A STANDALONE IT WORKED FOR ME. BEFORE NOW ALL I GOT WAS NETWORK HAD TIMED OUT.AFTER I DOWNLOADED BONJOUR IT WORKS FINE NOW SEE IF THIS HELPS ANYBODY ELSE.

    What kind of advise is this, call up Nokia Contact Centre? They can not fix the most simplest problem and the customer service just lacks big time. I spent 3 days trying to get my OVI Music fixed! The best is they don't know what they hell is going on. I even explained in so much detail what is happening with my account and all they recommend is try logging in after 30mins - 1 hour (what on earth do they do at their end just press some keyboard buttons like they doing something?)
    The most common thing I would have done is (if I was a Nokia employee) contact the relevant team and tell them majority users still can not login and they tried but still failed to login and then escalate the problem with them and make sure this issue gets seen to and promptly fixed but nooooo we got lazy and crazy employee here too just like the customer service it just shows the whole team is one shattered company falling to bits bit by bit unless they get their act sorted and help the customers, which makes the difference!!!

    How can I connect my 3gen apple tv with HDMI to my BUSH LCD32TV022HD
    This does not have an HDMI port but does have:-
    1) S-Video I/P,
    2) Video I/P,
    3) Audio Input (Left & Right)
    4) Audio In jack (for VGA and DVI source)
    5) DVI input
    6) VGA input

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    The Apple TV doesn't officially support a DVI connection, however you may be able to get it to work. You will first need to check that your TV supports either 720p or 1080p as well as HDCP. If you are able to get the video working over the DVI connection, you may also require a DAC in order to connect with Apple TV's optical audio output to the TVs audio imput.
    You may well wish to make sure that the DVI connection works before spending any money on a DAC..

  • Can not connect outside of Lan to with rtsp PVC2300

    I have the following cameras set up at my office
    1 - PVC2300
    2 - WVC54GC
    3 - AXIS 225FD
    I have a BEFSR81 Router
    I have a computer on Windows XP running the surv software to record.  Everything with that is good.
    I also have 2 desktops.
    I have been playing around with the rtsp feed with the pvc2300, but have run into a few problems.
    1(a).  I can not connect outside of the LAN with RTSP with either the VLC player or quicktime.  It connects and asks for a password and then just hangs.
    The PVC 2300 local address is 192.168.1.102 with ports 554, 5000-5010, and 6970-6999 forwarded on the router.  What am I missing?
    1(b) I can successfully connect with my blackberry bold, although when I try to change the default port (554) to something else (I would like to RTSP my the AXIS camera as well,  so I will need a different port) it connects on my bold, but then says server is unresponsive. What am I missing here?
    2.  The voice with the PVC 2300  using http outside of the LAN (internet) lags quite baddly and is choppy.  This happens without fail when I have all 4 cameras running, which I understand is upload bandwidth problem.  But it also happens when I connect to just the PVC2300.  I do have a connection to all 4 cameras inside the LAN to the XP running the surv software, but that is it. Is the my router acting buggy?  I have unplugged the router for 5 sec, and it fixed it for a while, but it always comes back.  I have donwloaded the latest firmware for the router and PVC 2300 and that didnt seem ot fix it either.  Suggestions?
    3.  This is more of a question.  I know the mobile streaming of the PVC 2300 does not include voice.  Is there an app or way that I can just get it to my Blackberry.  Even if I didnt get the video, voice is sometimes more important to me.
    I hope Ive been clear enough in my description, Im very self taught (google is amazing), but I am in no way a techy.
    Thank you in advace for your help.
    Colin

    Glad to hear you are successfully using the SWVMS16. That program is really cool and useful. I just cant tell you how that model of Linksys Router can work for you here (that is not a model we support on this community as its not small business)
    Regarding RTSP access, are you also including the mobile.sdp in the URL?
    RTSP:///mobile.sdp   I noticed in the camera GUI with the newer firmware, you can specify an access code under mobile settings after checking the enable mobile streaming box.  That word may be what you have to include, so check that too...
    Try this locally first and then remotely is the easiest way to see if you got it right, then it just becomes a routing or firewall issue to figure out.
    But your forwarded ports look right and should be opened.
    Under advanced settings, you can define an alternate HTTP, HTTPS or RTSP port

    I'd like to know how can i connect my old iMac tiger with new one iMac lion. I wanna use the old one for external disk to collect files from there to new one.

    Hi mshields1162,
    Great question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    First, you may want to choose to have the sidebar displayed for familiarity:
    iTunes 11: Frequently used features
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
    Afterwards, your device should be displayed if connected:
    We'll want to click on it, and choose the Music tab at the top. Let's make sure "Sync Music" is checked:
    Afterwards, you'll have the option to sync either the entire music library (for your first iPod), or "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres" (for the secondary device). Upon selecting this option, four larger option boxes will appear allowing you to pick and choose what content will be synced. For audiobooks, you may need to do the above in the "Books" section. For a visual instruction on how to do this, see the following:
    iTunes 10: Sync to your iPod

    Thanks,

  • How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

    How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

    What devices?
    The iPad can only pair with earphones, speakers and keyboards.
    It cannot directly pair with other phones or computers for file transfer or other operations.
    Most Bluetooth devices will have a user guide to connect them to other devices. follow that to start the process.
    From the iPad side, its just a matter of going inot Settings->BlueTooth turning it on, and searching for the device to pair. 

  • Can I create a network for printing & music alone ?

    I don't have DSL or any type of broadband - still using dial up.
    If I buy an Airport Express can I configure it to wirelessly print and stream music or do I need a wireless network in the background to make this work ?

    Can I create a network for printing & music alone ?
    Yes
    If you also want internet access at the same time you will need to tweak things a bit.
