Canon MF4150 not compatible with Lion.

Hello,
I upgraded to Lion and since my Canon Image Class MF4150 doesn't want to print anymore. I checked the Canon's website and no drivers are out yet to support Lion.
Canon UFR II Driver Error : Printer open failed.: -9781
Anyone have a workaround (other than downgrading to Snow Leopard or buying a new printer)?
Thanks
Nic

Hi,
I have a MB Pro running Lion 10.7.2.
I Have a Canon MF4150 also, and recently worked out how to print and scan.
To print you should just download the UFR II Printer Driver V2.30 for Mac OSX 10.4/...
from http://usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/imageclass_ser ies/imageclass_mf4150#DriversAndSoftware
Then install the mpkg file
After you have done this go to:
Settings
Print and Scan
Add printer ( + ) - make sure printer is connected (USB)
Select the printer from the list
Go to the 'Print Using' dropdown box
Press 'Select printer software'
Scroll down until you find 'Canon MF4100 Series UFRII LT'
Select this
For the set up press 'Ok'
Done
For scanning, I have looked at various threads etc and have even called Canon (they say that they have no solution for this issue)
The only thing that works is this third party software called Vuescan
You van try it for free but then you have to buy if you want it.

I tried it myself, and was amazed that it worked instantly.

I want to go back to Snow Leopard 10.6 from Lion. Quicken 2007 is not compatible with Lion.

I want to go back to Snow Leopard 10.6 from Lion 10.7.2. Quicken 2007 is not compatible with Lion and I don't like Quicken Essentials 2012.

Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

Nothing from microsoft works, excel, powerpoint, messanger, word....
If you are getting this error message than you don't have Office for Mac 2008, you have version 2004. But don't panic, your receipes are not "gone." The files are still on your HDD, in the same place they were before you upgraded to Lion.
You've got some options.
1. In a pinch TextEdti can open and save a .doc or .docx file. So you can use that.
2. You can upgrade to Office for Mac 2011.
3. You can crossgrade to Apple's iWork suite of productivity software.
4. Or you can download one of the many open source MS Office alternatives such as OpenOffice.

My belkin play max router software does not work with Lion

Is iPhoto8.1.2 compatible with Lion?

I have several thousand scanned slides stored in iPhoto. I have too many Horror stories about disappearing photos and/or metadata to risk Updating to iPhoto 11. If iP{hoto is not compatible with Lion then Lion is DOA with me

One would expect iPhoto '09 to be compatible however until Lion is released it certainly is impossible to answer the question
As to iPhoto '11 - best you stop listening to horror stories and look at facts - iPhoto '11 is solid and works well and has millions and millions of happy users - and a very few unhappy ones as does every software package - all that is required to protect your precious photos is a good backup - and if you do not have one you will lose them (along with your other files) sooner or later
After Lion is released read the documentation and check to see if people are having problems with older versions of iPhoto

I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion and found out it was not compatible with my HP printer (HP photosmart C5580) so I called Apple and asked how to get Mountain Lion off and Snow Leopard back on. The Tech told me to

I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion. Then I found out it was not compatible with my HP Printer (HP Photosmart C5580 all-in-one) so I called Apple support and the tech told me to erase the hard drive instead of going in the time machine. Well I did that and then it took about three hours three days a week for about three weeks on the phone with an apple tech to get all my stuff back on my computer. I have had trouble with my printer (won't do the scan anymore and wasn't printing on my DVDs. Also the computer keeps freezing up when it is in the sleep mode, etc.
When I tried to list my problem on this forum it lists your OS at the bottom and mine had Mountain Lion listed as what I was using so apparently it didn't erase it. Want to know how to get Mountain Lion off and put my Snow Leopard on so things start working right.

Go to the  menu/About This Mac - what OS version shows there?
Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
Revert to a Previous OS X
Revert to Snow Leopard
If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience.

Time Capsule 1TB Will this unit still be compatible with Lion OSX ,As I have not switched yet until other programs I have installed on my mac are up to speed

I have had my eye on one of these for quite some time in the past and up until just very recently have puchased a 1TB Time Capsule at rather quite a reasonable price or so I had thought compared to what they had been priced at originally in the past which I had thought to be a bit over the top as is with most of apple's products or should I more say marketing tactic's,
Anyway I was just wanting to know in general is this unit already so to speak on it's way out or becoming obsolete in comparison to the 2TB's and 3TBs Time Capsules ,
Not the implicating the obvious being storage in differences but more so the compatibility issue side of things,
In short will this unit still work with OSX Lion for example, or is it only limited to Leopard and Snowleopard,
The place I had purchased this unit from are more or less in the dark themselves and although more than helpful are more a musical instrument outlet than a computer store as the decision was my choice alone in which I need not to be convinced,
Although I have purchased this item I am yet to recieve as this unit was the one of the last in the country and is to be shipped in from out of town,
But has given me time to think of such in the process during as this unit is no longer advertised amongst it bigger companions,
I use my mac or mac's mainly for composing music with such software as Pro Tools 8 soon to be 9 and also Live 8 Studio as I don't plan to plan to change over to Lion OSX until these programs are up to speed and speaking the same language,

Yes, it's compatible with Lion.

Canon T3i download cable will no longer work after 10.10 download. Plugging the cable into the 15 inch laptop says not compatible with software. Was fine before the 10.10 upgrade.

10.10 is installed. Now when plugging the download cable in from my wife Canon T3i camera to my wifes 15 inch Apple laptop it says not compatible with the software. Worked fine before the 10.10 upgrade. However I CAN download my pictures from my Canon 6D camera to MY 15 inch Apple laptop.....

I have a DSC-T1 Sony camera. I also have a Panasonic video camera with a built in digital camera. I just took some shots with the Panasonic. Plugged it in, and it worked perfectly. iphoto opened and did what it was supposed to do. I then tried the Sony and nothing happened again. Maybe this is a problem with the mac not recognizing certain cameras...?????

Hello royalaqua,
I do think you should ask yourself if upgrading to Lion is the right course to take.
Snow Leopard is an excellent OS and Lion has literally been frozen out after barely a year. Remember too that some of your apps may not work with Lion (those that have Rosetta, for example) so that could mean more new purchases. Plus you may need to uprate your RAM too.

If you can download the ML installer you can make a bootable install media by using:
http://liondiskmaker.com/
If your Mini came with ML you can also boot to Internet Recovery
OS X: About OS X Recovery
and it will install ML. Make sure you boot to Internet Recovery and not the Recovery Partition. If to the partition you will only get Mavericks.

Mountain lion not compatible with MBP core 2 duo

Hi there,
I have an MBP 17" which has been running on Leopard until the other day. I wanted to upgrade to Mountain Lion so that I can utilise some of its features. So I upgraded to Snow Leopard as indicated on the Apple Store web pages. I bought the disc and had it mailed to me and have installed and clicked and ticked and restarted and done all the things asked of me in the process to get the OS to the most up-to-date version. (10.6.8)
Now, when I go to Apple's App Store it gives me this message!
We could not complete your purchase.

"OSX Mountain Lion is not compatible with this computer."

I bought a MacBook Pro (13" retina display) today. Tried to update software. Error mesage said to ujpdate OS. When I tried to, error message said, "OS X Mountain Lion is not compatible with this computer." Anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions?

All owners of the model seem to have the same problem. Presently there is no 10.8.2 updater for your model. The previous updater has been pulled. Wait a while and one will show up when Apple gets it fixed.

How can I find Lion to download it to my Mac Boook/ It is the white plastic model and is now running Snow Leopard. It has 4 GB of Ram but this computer is not compatible with MOuntain Lion. I cannot find Lion anywhere.

How can I find Lion to download it to my Mac Book? It has Snow Leopard and 4GB RAM but it the white plastic model and is not compatible with Mountain Lion. I have been told by the Genius Bar that it will handle Lion.

That underpowered model is better left on 10.6.8 for performance reasons, also the fact that it's dated and 10.7 will likely require you to buy alll new software to replace the PPC based software your currently using.
If you insist, then call Apple via phone and they will sell you 10.7 Lion and provide a link to download it.
My 2¢ is to save up for a new machine, as that one is about to kick the bucket, they only last about 4.5 years or so depending upon use/enviroment.
If your having problems with 10.6.8, perhaps some of the links here can assist, 10.6 is faster than 10.7 in fresh install tests.
