Carriage stuck on left side

Cancelled a print job on my Officejet Pro 8500 Premier, now carriage is stuck on left side and paper roller for Tray 1 is stuck in down position. I am getting a paper jam message, but there are no jams.

wfarebel,
Have you read the manual, referencing pgs 234-236. http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01643304.pdf
1) Turn off print, unplug any cables. Wait 20-30 sec, reattach cables, power on.
2) Read about suggested pages to remove duplexer. Note the warning on Pg 236, but try it a visually see if the fixes it.
" When you open the print carriage access door, the carriage should return to its position on the right side of the device. If it does not move to the right, turn off the device before you remove any jam".

HP 6940: carriage stuck at left side, resume and power lights flashing

I've used this printer under ubuntu/linux for about 2-1/2 years. Color printing has always been a challenge, I get about one usable page per 5 test pages. About a year ago, it stopped printing; hp-info (part of the hplip package) said the color cartridge was defective. I was able to get black&white printing by removing the color cartridge.
This week, I had to print some stuff in color. I pulled the color cartridge out of its ziplock, re-installed it, and ran a quick cleaning. A test print showed that wasn't enough, and I ran a full cleaning, after which I was able to print a good test page, and then one page of my job.
When I tried to print the second page, nothing happened, and the resume and power lights started flashing. I cycled power on the printer (I have to do this very frequently, even for black and white jobs), but it didn't fix the problem. I pushed resume, but no dice. I pulled the back cover to check for paper jams: nothing jammed. Replaced the back cover, pulled the paper from the tray: nothing jammed. Replaced the paper in the tray. Pushed resume again: it made noise, but didn't clear the problem.
I opened the lid, and the carriage was all the way to the left-hand side. Pushed resume: a small plate in the loading dock at the right-hand side moved forward and then back, but the carriage stayed at the left-hand side. Tried (gently) to move it to the right, but it's firmly in position.
hp-info now says:
"status-desc Paper or cartridge carriage jammed"
The color cartridge is an HP cartridge, and came with the printer. The paper is HP paper.
Any suggestions?

Dock sticks to left side of screen

Hi everyone
well in the middle of copying 100GB of data the finder crashed and so I held the power button of my macbook pro in order to reboot but when it came back to the OS again , the dock stuck to left side of the screen
In order to inform you I have already tried killall dock and ... so if there is somebody out there who can upload the Dock application located in HD/SYSTEM/LIBRARY/CORESERVICES I will be really thankful of him or her and also I think it can help many others with the similar problems
Thank you.

You don't need to replace your Dock application, and you certainly should NEVER install something like that sent to you from some unknown stranger online! If it actually were necessary to replace the Dock application, you could do that from your install disks with the assistance of [Pacifist|http://www.charlessoft.com>... but again, that is not necessary here.
Sounds like your Dock preferences got damaged somehow. Try just changing the position back to what you expect (bottom or right) using System Preferences -> Dock. If that doesn't help, you'll want to delete ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Dock.plist (where '~' means "your home folder"), then log out and log back in.

HP Photosmart c3180 Print Cartridge Cradle stuck on the left side

I have a HP Photosmart c3180. The ink cartridges were installed incorrectly. When I open the front to change the cartridges, the two cartridges do not move over to the right for me to remove and reinstall properly. All paper jams have been cleared. Any help?

Hello brummpa,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the Deskjet 5150 carriage is stuck on the right hand side and won't move. I will do my best to assist you! Please make sure this printer is plugged into a direct wall, not a surge protector. Next, try performing a hard reset on your printer.
After, performing this reset, I would try manually moving the carriage over to the left side. If this step doesn't work, then please follow this entire HP document on Paper Jam' Error Message Displays on the Computer.
Please post your results!

Reset Tool Bar on left side, as it disppeared and I'm stuck in Crop Mode

Holy Crap Batman, I've messed around investigating the upper tool selections and before I knew it I had lost the access menu on the left side of the display screen to get into my tools. How do I reset these? Thank-you

Thanks for those answers and I kept searching for the 'magic key' and must have found it. Problem is I downloaded to my Pro360 and everything is micro-sized as far as menu headings and selection buttons. I now have it under control and am taking a CreativeLive Basic Course on Photoshop. Thanks again for responding. Benson

Firefox Doesn't Load Any Website and Scroll Bar Switches to the Left Side of the Screen??

First let me say this is a work computer that I am using, so there is plenty of virus protection and firewall. I have always used firefox for all my casual internet browsing and work network needs. I recently updated to the latest version of firefox and that is when I started having problems. Almost any web page I go to wether it is my work intranet home page or a common site such as google mozilla will not finish loading the page. If I hit refresh or try to go to another site it gets wierd and the scroll bar switches to the left side of the screen and the page seems to be stuck loading. At this point almost nothing responds to any mouse clicks except for closing the firefox window. If I go to tools --> options it brings up a blank options window with only the "ok" and "cancel" buttons displayed. Help please, I don't like using IE, but right now that is my only option.

Something's wrong with my headphone jack, it only plays the left side!!

I know it's not my headphones, cause I've tried 4 different ones, one of them new, and it''s always the left side that's the only working side. If I wiggle the headphones in the jack, the right side will cut in and out. This just happened today, I have no idea why. I didn't drop it, or get it wet or anything, I have no idea what couldv'e caused it. I've had the iPod since the beginning of this year, I don't think I registered it or got a warrenty or anything, I'm not sure how'd I'd check though. Can Apple fix this or can I fix it myself or what would you guys suggest? Thanks.

That happened with me also when I bought my skull candy headphones(iPods headphones hurt my ears). My headphones also worked for a while and then went to a point where I could only hear out of one side. I finally reverted back to the iPods headphones. I just stuck with the original headphones. Maybe I'll buy some of their more comfortable ones.
Also try not winding your headphone cord around the iPod too tightly. I looked somewhere else and someone said that that could be the problem. If you do wrap the excess cord around the iPod, try wrapping them around not as tight. I tried that and I got some extra life out of my old headphones. I would probably still be wearing them if I hadn't stepped on the jack and bent them.
I'm sorry that this is so long. Hope this helped.

DataGrid scrollbar on left side.

I know I have seen a topic about this somewhere but this
forum has such a bad searchfunction that I cant find the answer...
I have 2 DataGrids, 1 must have the vertical scrollbar on the
right side (normal), and 1 must have the vertical scrollbar on the
left side (not normal).
I have tried everything I could think of. Help files didn't
help, tutorials didn't help, looking through the UIScrollbar and
DataGrid class files didn't help either.
I'm stuck...
If anyone knows how to do this, please share.
p.s. the tricks that people use to get the scrollbar to the
left in a "scrollpane" component do NOT work for
DataGrids...

Also tried:
_root.myDG.vScroller._x = 0;
_root.myDG.setHPosition(-15);
didn't work... I also tried adding this:
myDG.vScrollPolicy = "off"; (this removes the vertical
scrollbar)
and then adding an additional UIScrollbar component into the
DataGrid... but even after configuring it correctly it will not
interact with the DataGrid (perhaps it only works for textfields).
Anyone?!?

Put the TLF vertical scrollbar on the left side in flash CS4

Hi, all
I’m using Arabic words on TLF so I want to put the vertical scrollbar on the left side. But I don’t know how to do it. Could anybody give me an example?
Thanks.

Hi azeem
I have been learning how to deal with arabic fonts now in flash10 and from what i have read up so far adobe has stopped updating the TLF component and it is been said it will only reappear with flash11 again. So if there is a bug with 64 bit os , then it is stuck like that for now. Another point to mention while using the forums and from personal testing is that the adobe arabic font will not handle diacritics correctly. You should try use Arial version 4 (the arial that ships with vista , the arial that shipped with xp is also faulty).

Screen problems,it's like the light is not uniform in the left side

I got my iPad more than a year and I'm having a problem with screen, it's like the light is not uniform in the left side. Too bad what should I do?

The botton should have a definite click to it when depressed whether an original iPad or the latest model, if there is no click then it sounds like the botton is stuck/damaged. If stuck it may still have an impact on the volume even if you adjust it in Settings>Sounds.

Steve

How can i open the left side of the G4?

Hello!
Have G4 that is starting to sound like an aeroplane. I opened the four screws on the left side of teh computer but it still hangs on to the apple so I can not get the side off. I tried to pull a little but i is stuck.
How do I open the side after i have removed the screws?
There are a lot of dust bunnies/rats etc.
Thanks in advance
Per-Anders

There is a plastic stand-off, that's attached to the (inside) center of the side panels. When pressed into place, two tabs snap-lock the panel securely to the chassis. For the left side, removal of the internal fan assembly will provide access to these two tabs. Gently squeeze them together, and the panel will be released. To avoid breakage, don't use excessive force on them. The right panel requires removal of the logic board, to access the catch/release tabs.

The left side of my mini ipad is dead. The left side is unresponsive to touch. How can I fix this issue without going having my device replaced?

The left side of my mini ipad is unresponsive. Is there a fix for this hardware issue without costing me an arm and a leg?

If it's in warranty and a defect then it's covered under your warranty. If it was the result of user negligence, then it will not be covered. In that case see below:
If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.

I just upgraded to the new Photo and find a few things missing. May find more later. My Events are gone. Also, the Albums and Projects that I created that were on the left side tab of iPhoto are now gone. Where are they?

Where are my Events from the old iPhoto? Also, where are the albums and projects I created that were on the left side tab in my old iPhoto?

Hersco wrote:
After importing my iPhoto Library no Events became Albums. Some of my Albums are still Albums, but many are missing from the Albums tab and Sidebar. One of the Albums listed has no photos when it should have 142. Another is missing nearly all of its photos. I found some missing Albums by name via the search window. Yet they remain missing from the Albums tab. Very strange indeed. This is one big mess right now! Thank goodness iPhoto still works.
Yes, it's a mess for sure, and I've lost confidence in it for now. First attempt, 5 photos came up missing. Delete and start over, then after second attempt 18 photos go missing. Even one single missing photo is a real confidence breaker for me.
After conversion, and activation of the sidebar, all of my Events were migrated into a single "Photos" Album called "iPhoto Events". Why would I want "legacy" Events segregated into one big Album? What the heck am I supposed to do with that? That's useless if new photos are going to be organized in some other way moving forward. I cannot imagine new photos automatically putting themselves into a new Event inside of the "iPhoto Events" Album... because they won't. I'll be stuck with my old iPhoto Events in this one Album, and the new stuff organized as per Photos. Weird, just weird.
Also, in the "all photos" view, there are dates that are just blank. I think I know why. In iPhoto, I merged various photos into single Events. For whatever reason, within the Library, this left empty folders behind. iPhoto's fault, not mine... I simply dragged & dropped photos to combine Events. Then during Photos import/conversion these empty folders got converted into "blank" days within Photos... this is simply ridiculous. When programming for an import, you'd want to ignore a folder if there are no files inside of it, not convert it into a block of photos that contain no photos. It's nonsensical... you cannot have an iPhoto Event with zero photos, yet that's what was converted over. LOL.
I'm certainly not going to invest the time into cleaning up and moving hundreds of Events and 18,000 photos if Photos can't even do a simple library conversion. Heck, what about the dozens of photos that my iPhone 5S fails to geotag for whatever reason? Can't edit geotags. Can't bulk edit meta data. These are pretty basic functions. Total fail.
I'm going back to iPhoto for a while, hoping Apple eventually cleans up this mess into something usable.

Since installing LTR 5.4, which I've now upgraded to 5.6, I've encountered repeated slowness and malfunctions in operations, especially when using the Compare View function and the Tab key to open and close the right and left side panels. Such problems never arose during two years of using LTR-4 and nothing else has changed on my computer. I have a pretty simple system with only a few plug-ins, which are usually not in operation. I have 12GB of RAM in my Windows 7 PC. I could illustrate these problems with screen shots if you would tell me how to submit screen shots. Otherwise I will try to describe the problems in words.
The problem is clearly cumulative, growing worse as usage time passes. Compare View feature gradually slows down and eventually seems to choke as my work session proceeds. If I Exit LTR and re-enter and start all over, things will work normally for maybe 30 minutes, but then the Compare View feature begins to become very slow to respond. In a recent example with my screen full of thumbnails in Library mode I highlighted two images to compare. LTR started to open the Compare View screen by first having the top row of thumbnails disappear to be replaced by the "SELECT" and "CANDIDATE" words in their spaces (but no images), but Compare View never succeeded in gaining control of the screen. After some seconds the top row of thumbnails reasserted its position and the Compare View windows disappeared. But LTR kept trying to bring them back. Again the top row of thumbnails would go away, Select and candidate would reappear, try again, and give up. This went on for at least 2-3 minutes before I tried to choose File and Exit, but even that did not initially want to respond. It doesn't like to accept other commands when it's trying to open Compare View. Finally it allowed me to exit.
To experiment I created a new catalog of 1100 images. After 30-40 minutes, the Compare View function began to operate very slowly. With left and right side panels visible and two thumbnails highlighted, hitting Compare View can take half a minute before the two mid-size images open in their respective SELECT and CANDIDATE windows. When the side panels are open and two images are in the Select/Candidate spaces, hitting the Tab button to close the side panels produces a very delayed response--25-30 seconds to close them, a few more seconds to enlarge the two images to full size. To reverse the process (i.e., to recall the two side panels), hitting Tab would make the two sides of the screen go black for up to a minute, with no words visible. Eventually the info fields in the panels would open up.
I also created a new user account and imported a folder of 160 images. After half an hour Compare View began mis-placing data. (I have a screen shot to show this.) CANDIDATE appears on the left side of SELECT, whereas it should be on the right. The accompanying camera exposure data appears almost entirely to the left of the mid-screen dividing line. Although the Candidate and Select headings were transposed, the image exposure data was not, but the data for the image on the right was almost entirely to the left of the line dividing the screen in two.
Gurus in The Lightroom Forum have examined Task Manager data showing Processes running and Performance indicators and they see nothing wrong. I could also send screen shots of this data.
At this point, the only way I can process my images is to work 30-40 minutes and then shut down everything, exit, and re-start LTR. This is not normal. I hope you can find the cause, and then the solution. If you would like to see my screen shots, tell me how to submit them.

How can I display all bookmarks on left side of window without opening library?

I usually have a bookmarks view (NOT the toolbar) open in the left side of the Firefox window. It shows all my bookmarks, much as the library view does, but not in a separate window. After Firefox crashed, I restarted a "new session" and the bookmarks were not visible. The help files only talk about the bookmarks toolbar, not what I'm looking for.

You can open the Bookmarks in the sidebar via View > Sidebar > Bookmarks (Ctrl+B) 
Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
You can find toolbar buttons to open the bookmarks and the history in the sidebar in the toolbar palette and drag them on a toolbar. 
Firefox 4 has two bookmark buttons with a star in the Customize window. 
One star button has a drop marker that open a Bookmark menu. 
The other star button without the drop marker opens the bookmarks in the sidebar.
