Canon ip4700 amber lights blink 5 times will not print, 4 years old, help please

Canon ip4700, amber lights flash 5 times, printer will not print, any advise appreciated

This issue has been resolved - my Support Advisor, Edgar, was able to discern what was causing the problem.
It appears that, despite years of never experiencing this, one of the latest ipod updates actually altered my device's personal settings and changed it to "Manual" for all synchronizing; even performcing Factory Restores did not change it back to being automatic.
My ipod is working as good as ever now thanks to Edgar. If anyone else is having this problem, please make sure you check your device's settings in iTunes and see if "Manual" is checked - even if you never changed the settings yourself and have no reason to suspect that to be the problem, as was the case here. If it is checked - uncheck it to enable automatic syncing.
So relieved this was not a much more serious problem. I've missed having my music on the go. Thanks, Edgar!

  • HP PSC 1500 printer all lights blinking and will not turn off.

    HP PSC 1500 printer all lights blinking and will not turn off. I had just put a print cartridge in and the problems started. All lights began blinking including the on/off. The on/off button would nor respond. (just kept blinking)
    I opened the printer door and the cartridges did not move back to the right so they could be examined.

    I understand that you are having an issue with your printer, and certain lights are blinking. I have included the document 'Blinking Lights'. This document will take you through the different combination of lights that are blinking, as well as steps to provide a solution.
    If this does not resolve the issue, please let me know exactly what lights are blinking.
    Please let me know if this resolves your issue, thank you.

    Thanks for your answer. Apprciate it very much. Just prior to receiving your email, I got back online. However, as I had tried what you suggested (and a lot more as I am 'reasonably' competent), and had been so doing since yesterday afternoon, I do believe that what you suggested was correct - that it was my third rate ISP that was at fault.
    Nevertheless, many thanks once again.

  • I have a mac pro wich will not open windows in boot camp i get to the two options select windows but iyt will not load can you help please

    i have a mack pro which will not open in windows from boot camp get to the two options and select windows drive but it will not open can you help Please

    Hi there, Well, i thing i might have had the same problem (if you dont mean the selecting part, then try keyboad with usb and without if u dont have a macbook pro or so), i did the same and after selecting windows it said "No bootable disk" or " no boot disk" or something like that and the installer wont start when i was trying to install via CD/DVD.
    The sulution is to use 2 usb-drives, one for the support drivers from apple and one for the windows it self after burning the CD/DVD to the usb on a PC using the windows own tools and creating a ISO file.
    (there might be problems whit CD/DVD install sometimes)
    The ISO file on a own USB is the most importat thing!! (and even apple and windows didnt know that but me and a technikal support guy from the store i bought it managed to fix it after like 4 days )
    Hope it work now mate!

    Howdy carliosa,
    If your iMac is not starting up normally you may need to do some checking to make sure things are working correctly. I would suggest starting with the steps in this article -
    Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • My Lightroom 3 closed after trying to edit a photo and will not open again.  Help please!

    My Lightroom 3 closed after editing a photo and will not open again.  It says Lightroom is not working and Windows is looking for a solution.  I am in a bind and need my Lightroom opened asap.  Please help!

    In your operating system, go to the folder where your Lightroom catalog is stored and see if there is a file that ends with .lock
    If so, delete it and then LR will open properly.

  • Xerox Phaser 6350DP - Connected and Ready but will NOT PRINT!! Help.

    'm using OS 10.4.11 to connect to a printer on a Windows server using LDP. I can add the printer, the PPD works, and when I print, the job shows up in the queue, then moves to the "Completed" section. But it never prints. I can even go to "Supply Levels" and it gets the correct toner levels for the printer, so I know they're connecting. But my computer thinks the job has printed, even though it hasn't. What gives?
    The Printer is connected to one Router (PC Based) and from the Router one other computer is connected (Windows PC). I can talk to the computer and do test pages and everything but when i try to print anything from my computer it says the Job was completed when it hasn't printed a thing.

    my mac will not turn on with the power button.  is there another way to override and turn it on?
    did a software update early this morning (around 1 or 2 am).... on safari for a while.... closed all programs.
    shut computer down via menu.

    have unplugged and re-plugged power cord...

    perhaps combining a number of keys on the keyboard or something magical.

    thanks for reading.

  • Since upgrading to Mavericks entered calendar settings will not stay applied.  Help Please!

    Since upgrading to Mavericks my entered calendar settings (alerts specifically) will not stay applied.  I am using the calendar that came installed on my MacBook Pro w/retina display.  This is an important issue for me.  I need my calendar and scheduled reminders.  I can enter an appointment which stays in place but when I enter an additional reminders and click the "apply" button the reminders I entered simply disappear.  The appointment stays but the reminders do not. 
    Thank you!

    Thx for the star, but Barney-15E is more helpful to you.
    Show him some love too
    When you repair the permissions also repair the 'user permissions' too…

    The paragraph below the image explains how to do it in 10.7, Mavericks is similar. Don't fear the Terminal, it's just a shortcut to the reset tool that Apple hid.

  • IMac will not start up. Help please!

    Earlier today I was surfing the Net with Safari. Suddenly, the page I was loading stopped loading. The arrow pointer would not move if I moved the mouse. The menubar clock's seconds stopped changing. The entire system was frozen. After about 15-20 seconds, the iMac's fans started blowing louder. After another 30 seconds, I gave up and tried the force quit key combo. No dice. So then I held down the power switch, forcing a shutdown.
    Now, when I try to boot my iMac G5, I get one of 3 outcomes:
    (a) I hear a faint fan sound, and perhaps the hard drive makes a sound, but nothing else happens.
    (b) I hear the startup chime, but the chime doesn't finish. It's cut off and the iMac turns off. Sometimes the light on the front of the iMac comes on for a moment, sometimes not.
    (c) The iMac starts up normally. After a minute or so, the whole system freezes again.
    I use this Mac at work for all my medical records. Now I have no access to my medical records (but I do have a backup, thankfully). Without a working medical record system, I've had to cancel all my patients for the day and I'm scrambling to find a solution.
    I found an article in the Apple knowledgebase. I followed the article step by step. It's called iMac G5: Troubleshooting when your computer won't turn on, and can be found at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300908 .
    With the back cover removed, and the power cord plugged in, LED 1 lights.
    When I hit the internal power button, LED 2 and LED 3 lit up, and OS X started up. The login window appeared. Since my keyboard and mouse were not plugged in, a window came up saying that the iMac was looking for a bluetooth mouse. I don't have one, so I plugged in my USB keyboard and mouse, but the mouse never saw power (the red laser never came on). From that point forward, I couldn't get the mouse to work and after maybe half a minute, the fans started blowing again. So I think this was the same as my Mac starting normally, but then freezing. This time, it froze before I could login.
    One thing I noticed: the iMac had been off and unplugged for more than 45 minutes. The last time it had been off and unplugged for more than 45 minutes, when I plugged it in an tried to boot it, it actually started up and I got to the finder. But then after I started to run Disk Utility, the OS froze up again. So it seems, if I leave the iMac off and unplugged for some length of time (45 minutes works), it will boot into OS X.
    Okay, so on with the steps described in the article. I held down the internal power button, and the iMac shut down. I hit the SMU button (with the iMac off). Then, I tried the internal power button again. This time, LED 1 lit, and LED 2 lit, but then LED 3 does NOT light up, and the computer does not start up. I just hear a light fan blowing (near the processors, I think) and the hard disk makes a few clicks, nothing more. No chime, no display.
    So then I reset the SMU again, by pressing the SMU button (which turned off the computer). Then I pressed the internal power button again. The computer still doesn't start up normally. Same as above.
    Reading through the article it asks, after pushing the internal power button, does LED 2 come on momentarily, or not at all? Actually, neither. It comes on, and stays on. The article has no instructions for you if LED 2 comes on and stays on. At this point, I'm stuck.
    So I checked another knowledgebase article, About the iMac G5 diagnostic LEDs. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86815
    It says:
    - LED 1 indicates that trickle voltage from the power supply has been detected. This LED will be ON when the computer is turned off and your power supply is working correctly.
    - LED 2 indicates that the main logic board has detected proper power from the power supply when the computer is turned on. This LED will be ON when the computer is turned on and the power supply is working correctly.
    - LED 3 indicates that the computer and the LCD display are communicating. This LED will be ON when the computer is turned on and video signal is being generated.
    - LED 4 lights only if the computer detects an over-temperature condition. This LED will be OFF when the computer is turned on and running at the correct temperature.
    On my iMac, LED 1 and 2 light and stay on, while LED 3 does not (except for the first time I tried this, see above). This seems to indicate a problem generating a video signal.
    So maybe it's a problem with the video signal, but I think something else is going on too.
    iMac G5 (First Generation)   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    right down to the "Troubleshooting when your computer won't turn on" 2nd LED staying on when the procedure only gave two options: Momentarily on or not coming on at all.
    Hi guys,
    The fact that the second LED stays on is actually normal. This what is meant to happen if neither the power supply or one type of motherboard problem have occured. Para 12 of http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300908 only provides the results (no light or momentary) that occur if the test provides evidence of a problem with either of them.
    As Anthony notes, if LED remains lit constantly then power is reaching the motherboard and the computer is turned on as described in http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300908 .
    Just wanted to make this clear in case other users got worried if they found LED 2 lit.
    I agree that http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300908 could be made clearer in this respect.
    Cheers

  • VGA CRT will not "wake up".. help please. Reset display settings shortcut?

    Hello everybody,
    I have a mirror drive doors G4 Tower, Dual 1.25 GHz.
    I have an ADC and a DVI out from the computer. Just had damage to my old studio display so I am attempting to use just one CRT running from the DVI... w/ a DVI to VGA adapter.
    The first time I tried this w/ a CRT it worked fine... I played around w/ monitor settings... still worked fine. Shut down... unhooked CRT and moved that CRT away.
    Tried using it with another CRT and the new CRT never started up... remained on stand-by/sleep.
    I tried with another moniter... this time a LCD/Flatscreen... again VGA and it did the same thing, EXCEPT... this time when I connected the LCD to the adapter and then plugged the adapter into the DVI on my tower the LCD screen would turn on for about 1 second and display my login page. The picture was not perfect though... it was distorted someway.
    Went back to the first CRT... now this one didn't work.
    I think that maybe I have to reset my display settings with some sort of shortcut or something... maybe it's on the wrong frequency?
    I don't know... any help much appreciated. I hate having to use this PC.
    Thanks,
    James

    Turned out to be a faulty DVI to VGA adapter.
