Epson Stylus CX7300 will not print after software update

After doing the latest update for my Epson Stylus CX7300 printer it will not print. When i open the printer utility it comes up with a communication error. I can still scan documents but i can't print or even print a test page, check ink levels etc.

my ipod touch gen 4 will not recovery after software update. have tried everything. device not recognized by itunes. any ideas?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

MacBook Pro will not boot after software update

MacBook Pro will not boot after doing an Apple Software Update (of course they will not help you). MONEY, MONEY, MONEY is the name of the game. They can cause your computer to crash and still charge you!
Does anyone have an answer to why my computer is showing a little gear spinning for hours? I have tried several things with NO luck.
Thanks-

I am using Photoshop Elements 13 to edit some images. I am trying to print on the Epson Stylus c88+ inkjet printer but i am getting an error that the saved printer information is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements. What do I need to do? I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer but it still does not work.

Safari and Mail will not open after software update

After doing the monthly software update yesterday, my Mail and Safari programs will not open. I click on the icon in the dock or in the Applications folder and I get nothing. The icon in the dock jumps, but nothing opens. I've read several other discussions and tried dragging several files out of the library, such as plist files and history, etc., but they still won't open. The software update only updated iTunes and iPhoto and included the most recent security update. I have not tried to reload Safari. If I do that (and it works), what do I need to do for Mail? Will I lose all my emails? Can someone tell me what I can do to get both programs back working properly? Thanks!

Another approach is to reapply the 10.3.9 combined update. "Repair permissions" via Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
As far as your e-mail's are concerned, the database files are maintained in your User account>Library>Mail folder. It's very important you backup this folder periodically to external media regardless of circumstances to preclude losing your e-mails in the event of file corruption.
Best maintenance strategy is a full backup of your HD on a bootable external (firewire) hard drive. Makes life a lot easier in the event you need to revert your HD to its state prior to an System Update gone bad.

Macbook pro (snow leopard) will not boot after software update

I helped my mom buy a Macbook Pro for herself for Christmas. Today, I connected it to her old eMac and used the migration assistant to transfer files over. It was unable to estimate migration time on the only user (after 45 minutes) so I didn't migrate the user. Then I tried to pair her macbook to her new bluetooth keyboard, but no magic happened, so I tried to use the bluetooth setup assistant, which crashed. So I ran a software update, hoping that this would fix whatever the bluetooth problem is. Despite having updated on the 23rd, there were 4 updates. None seemed applicable but I installed them anyway. Now the computer won't boot at all.
Software update said that I had to restart for the updates to take effect, so I restarted. The harddrive went whirrrrrr and the grey screen with the apple logo and the spinning circle displayed. Then the harddrive stopped going whirrrr and 10 minutes later, I started looking on the support site for what to do. I found this:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10564149&#10564149
Per the instructions in the last post, I fscked the drive (although -f, in accordance with the fsck help). This found no problems. The next suggestion was to boot from the OSX install disk. Only one problem-- there was a disk in the disk drive when the problem occurred and the disk eject button apparently only works while in the gui. I can't install from disk if I can't get the existing disk out of the drive.
So, any other ideas on what I can do to get this machine to boot?

Hi Jen:
Since it's new, you're entitled to 90 days of phone support (3 years if you buy AppleCare). It sounds to me like you may have some hardware issue(s) going on - you should not have the sorts of issues you're having with a new Mac. Apple will probably be much better and faster about getting you fixed than this board may be able to if that is the case.

17" MacBook Pro will not startup after software update & shutdown

Last night I powered off (shutdown) my MacBook Pro (usually I leave it sleeping). It kindly reminded me I had updates to install. I said OK install them. I didn't check to see what they were, but I believe it was just the camera raw update. I also told it to shutdown after the update.
This morning the computer was off, so far so good.
Press the power button ... nothing. no chime, no diskdrive, blank screen....
Battery level is good, power adapter good with green light.
I have command control power buttoned. reset smu. cannot reset pmu as far as I know as that happens later in the startup procedure? post chime?
I pulled the power and battery and let it sit all day, still nothing.
Any ideas on the sudden failure. The software update seems unrelated, but somewhere in the back of my head I remember hearing about some problem with a camera raw update?
It's a 1st generation 17" MBP. TIA

Just to clarify the symptoms:
Good power adapter, green light on mag-safe when plugged into machine. Good battery(s) have two, both charged.
Press power button and nothing happens, no drive spin up, no noises, no chimes, no screen backlight (even with black screen) etc.
tried control-command power button for 3+ seconds, naughta.
tried pulling power and battery, then hold power for 5 sec. recconect bat and power, naughta.
tried removing all power for 8+ hrs, naughta.
It doesn't seem to be getting power to any components on -power button down -
So, I am guessing here but seems like:
a. Power button/connectors.
B. Firmware issue as last time it was run a software update (unknown) was installed.
C. Logic board?
D. As there is a green light on the power adapter I expect it is not the Left I/O subassembly board?
Are there any other power supply boards that may be involved, or are all of those components on the main board in this machine? Is the power button part of the keyboard assembly?
TIA.

ITunes will not start after software update yesterday

Using recent version of iTunes to manage my iPod Touch on a ThinkPad T400 with Win7 Pro 64-bit.
I was offered a software update last night, and took it. It appeared to install OK and required a reboot, which I performed.
Now I cannot run iTunes at all. In the Processes view of Task Manager, the iTunes process appears and then disappears without any kind of UI error message.
I heve rebooted again. I have downloaded the 10.4 installer from http://www.apple.com/uk/itunes/download/ and used the repair option.
No good. Rebooted. No good. The file version from Properties of iTunes64Setup.exe is 10.4.0.80 by the way.
Stopped the Bonjour service. No good.
So now I cannot get my latest podcasts onto my iPod and I am extremely unhappy.
Any ideas please?

If you downgrade, uninstall Apple compatibility support also from Programs as that seems to be the crux of many issues, both with iTunes but also Safari.
The other "crux" is that QT 7.7 and Safari 5.1 are security patches/updates deemed "critical/essential" category. Safari you can probably do w/o. iTunes is "dot zero" (10.4.0).
iTunes: I am always doing this that bring UAC to blank the screen, and refuse to disable that security feature, but that also means iTunes video (music, movies etc) will also go blank.
Other feature I have had with itunes is that it will go into a process thread lock wait state between video/movie and require a kill thread.
In 5 yrs Vista/7 I've had more issues with Apple software than anything else bare none.

Iphoto & Preview will not open after software update

I did a software update on my macbook pro yesterday, and cannot open iPhoto or review.
I am running on OSX 10.7.2 and the iPhoto is '11 9.2.1 Preview is 5.5.1
When i open either app nothing comes up, only the bar at the top of the screen changes to whatever app it is, but all the options in 'file, edit etc' cannot be clicked on.

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
(On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

MacBook will not restart after software update

Hi all,
I have downloaded a software update (I think it was the security update 008-08) and rebooted my MacBook. It got as far as the Apple logo with the rotating circle of lines beneath it (no start up beep) and does not boot any further.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated - do I need to reinstall from the install disk?
Thank you!

Hi imi_uk,
I see you marked this question as "solved" is that the case?
If not, are you able to startup your computer via "safe boot" by holding the SHIFT key on startup (until the Apple logo appears and the gear appears below it).
The next step, would also be to boot off the system restore disc that came with your computer and attempt to repair the volume (the internal HD) via the the built-in disc utility.

Epson Workforce 845 will not print after IPad software upgraded

All worked well before I upgraded my Ipad2 software yesterday. No longer prints. Message when I press print says it is searching for an AirPrint printed, and finds none on my network. Nothing has changed except the software upgrade. hat must I do?

Thanks...other computers on the wireless network continue to work well. The Epson Workforce 845 is an approved printer on AirPrint. Trying to find a printer setup screen on the iPad without success. When I bought the new wireless printer, it worked right out of the box with the iPad.
I am tempted to restore the software to the original factory settings through iTunes but fear losing everything that has been added since I got it. A disclaimer on iTunes says I can back all up, and later reinstall after I reset to original factory settings, but I am skeptical. Any experience in this area?

EPSON Stylus CX9400Fax - Will not print from my computer - MacPro 10.5.1

When I attempt to print from Photoshop CS3 or Microsoft Word, in the printer queue I read, Status Stopped. I click on the name and window pops up saying, Operation could not be completed - next line, client-error-not-possible... What the heck?! I installed the drivers off the CD that came with the printer and upgraded the driver on the net B4 plugging in the Printer during installation – SO it should work, right?
What am I doing wrong? And please don't say, You bought an EPSON... How do I make it work? And please don't say, Buy another printer other than an EPSON. And last, How do I prevent this error message occurring in the future? Please don't say, Don't by another EPSON... Thanking you in advanced,
Zeusest
PS: Now, if I might digress, Mac Lovers, now, I used Mac’s when I was in college and moved to PCs in my job and am now back to Mac's, purchased a Mac Pro and a MacBook Pro a couple months ago and have had nothing but probs with them. Some aliens, captured from Area 51 held against their will in the bowels of APPLE, keep moving the versions of the operating system up so fast I think some of my software is having a difficult time keeping up and is ACTUALLY crashing the system. Oh, then the nice little report can be sent to apple’s aliens and they thank you... Whatever… This is precisely why I moved away from PS's! Get you shnizzel in a row Mr. Jobs! Thank you… 3…2…1… I am much better now… How about some tea?
