Facetime no longer working with mavericks

I've used facetime for a while now to talk to family out of the country. Since I've upgraded to mavericks I can't log in with my apple id and password (which are both correct as I can log in to app store with them). Facetime cycles between log in page, then verifying, then back to log in page. Sometimes just gets stuck on verifying. Weird.
Any help would be appreciated.

HT6114 My CanoScan 8600F no longer works with Mavericks- No drivers available from Canon

My CanoScan 8600F no longer works with Mavericks upgrade. Canon does not offer new drivers.

The Canoscan Toolbox works with Mavericks to scan, copy, etc.
If you have Photoshop or Photoshop Elements the drivers can be installed so one can scan from within those applications.
All the necessary software (CanoScan Toolbox 5.0.1.2 Installer) can be obtained from the Canon site.
And, as Eustace mentioned, Vuescan works.

HT6114 HP Office Jet Pro 8500 Scanner no longer works with Mavericks upgrade

I have an all-in-one printer/copier/fax/scanner, HP Office Jet Pro 8500. The scanner no longer works with the Mavericks upgrade. Is it possible to get the scanner back in use? The printer and fax is fine, but I really use the scanner a lot. Please helap me.

The following link to the HP Support site indicates that scanning is still supported for the OfficeJet Pro 8500 using Mavericks but also indicates that "you may need to scan in a different way than you did before you installed Mavericks." See the FAQ section of http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03967522&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &os=4159&product=3752456&sw_lang=#N1237

Applications no longer work with mavericks

After downloading Mavericks,
1. Applications no longer work, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, microsoft Office, Illustrator, and more
2. Multiple displays no longer work
3. Tried restoriing, but would not let me.
What is the fix to this... Anyone know?

1. Applications no longer work, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, microsoft Office, Illustrator, and more
If coming from Snow Leopard, then PowerPC based apps will not run on anything beyond Snow Leopard.
2. Multiple displays no longer work
Multiple monitors work for me. There are people that have some issues with multiple monitors. Look at
<http://discussions.apple.com/message/26542996?tstart=0#26542996>
Does that help?
Or can you please describe how it doesn't work.
3. Tried restoriing, but would not let me.
Restoring what? the older version of Mac OS X? What version is that? Did you make a backup before upgrading? If so, what kind of backup?

FaceTime no longer working with Yosemite and IOS 8.1

I have used FaceTime flawlessly for some time with no issue.
After I upgraded to Yosemite on my MacBookAir and IOS8.1 on 5S and iPad air, I've had a problem connecting.
When I get a call, all the devices ring (as they should) but it will not connect on the first device I pick up on. It says connecting
but all the other devices keep ringing and finally it says I have a missed call. The connection does not happen. If I turn off
all devices except one, it will work...... do we have a bug here??

Thank you for responding to my issue. I spent the better part of two hours trying to get this to work. Bluetooth is enabled on all devices. Each computer is set in Preferences/General to allow Handoff. All computers and iPhones are on the same WiFi network. I toggled all of the major settings off and on. Rebooted each of my computers several times. I finally conceded defeat. Then my daughter asked to have a try at it. She worked on the first MBP for about thirty minutes and informed me that she had gotten continuity to work. And indeed, on her MBP late 2012 she is able to use the continuity features in both directions between her computer and her iPhone 6. But it only works with Mail and Safari. I asked how she accomplished this feat. She said she turned off "everything" on her computer and iPhone (WiFi, Bluetooth, "Allow handoff" under Preferences/General) and then rebooted both the iPhone and the computer. She then turned everything back on. This worked for her. So we tried the same thing on my MBP and iPhone 6. Now continuity works partially. Email activity is mirrored on both the MBP and the iPhone regardless of which device initiates the continuity activity. But Safari activity on the computer is mirrored on the iPhone but not in the opposite direction. There is no continuity function for Pages in either direction. The telephone connectivity works fine on all of my devices– 3 MBPs, Mac Pro, iPad Air, 2nd gen iPad and 3rd gen iPad.

Xerox workcentre 7535 print driver no longer works with Mavericks 10.9.2

Unable to change any settings in Print dialog pane for Xerox WorkCentre 7535. Xerox says its an Apple software problem. They have issed three revised drivers since Apple released Mavericks OS-X 10.9.2. Not only does latest driver (4-11-14) not work, their universal driver for Mavericks no longer works. Anybody else trying to print on a Xerox device?

I think I solved this. Our Canada office has a WorkCentre 7556, and it was having the same problem(s).
Here's what I found and did:
Log into the printer's web interface. Go to the Properties tab. On that page, expand General Setup. Then click Configuration Report.
Find and click the link for Machine Hardware. In that box, find a line item for Finisher Type. Scribble down or remember your finisher type (ours was Xerox Professional Finisher).
On the Mac in question, go to System Preferences, Printers & Scanners. Find your Xerox printer, click Options & Supplies, and then the Options button. Now on our machine, from a default installation, the finisher was set to OCT (Offset Catch Tray) and was greyed out. Changing this to the correct finisher mentioned above made all of our errors go away.
Cheers, good luck, and um, I guess mark as Answered if this works for you please?

Is there a 10.9 Server app available as 10.8 now longer works with Mavericks

Since updating from Mountain Lion to mavericks the 10.8 Server.app software does not run, is there an update to 10.9

tbh I'd forgotten about the OS Version mis-match problem with Server.app and because I'd found a version of Work Group Manager that ran under Mavericks thought there'd be a version of Server.app as well
As there's no way we will be update all our servers to Mavericks, I'll just have to revert to Apple Remote Desktop and run Server.app locally
Thanks for jogging my memory Semmelroccys about
PS Since Apple stopped making XServes they don't seem to give a **** about enterprise useage

Scanning no longer works with Mavericks (Samsung CLX-6220FX)

With Mountain Lion I had no problem with the printer. In 10.8 I installed it by going to Printers & Scanners, clicking the plus sign and then clicking Samsung CLX-6220 Series. Then Apple software update would install the required driver automatically and printing and scanning would just work.
In Mavericks when I click on my printer under the popup that clicking the plus sign opens up, I get the following message:
Clicking "Use Generic" works, but only with printing. Clicking "Open Scanner..." gives me the following:
I've tried installing the drivers from Samsung's official web site (Samsung_CLX-6220_Series_PrinterDriver.zip and Samsung_CLX-6220_Series_MACScanner.zip). But then printing would not work, only scanning.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hey there Jacob,
It sounds like your printer is not functioning correctly after having updated to Mavericks. I was researching what is happening and found this article to help troubleshoot what is going on named:
Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3147
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Sterling

Dropbox automator script no longer working with Mavericks

Hi,
I use two versions of the following shell script (found on the net), launched by automator, to set up two Dropbox accounts :
Since upgrading to Mavericks, the script hangs when execution is requested. If the execution is then stopped and then requested a second time, the script terminates normally. Anyone have any idea why this might be (I am no expert of either shell scripts or automator) ?

ok then do this. Once you have your first Dropbox account set up try the following steps:
1. Create a folder named "Dropbox-second" anywhere you like.
2. Open terminal, write "bash" and press enter.
3. paste the line below and press enter. (Dont close the terminal window)
HOME=$HOME/Dropbox-second /Applications/Dropbox.app/Contents/MacOS/Dropbox &
4. A second dropbox instance will open requiring you to sign in. Go ahead sign-in and then click advanced and point to the "Dropbox-second" folder you created.
5. Close the terminal window and close the second instance of the dropbox from the topbar. (Click on the icon -> Click on the gear -> Quit Dropbox)
6. Now open AppleScript Editor and paste the following
do shell script "HOME=$HOME/Dropbox-second /Applications/Dropbox.app/Contents/MacOS/Dropbox > /dev/null 2>&1 &"
7. Click run and you will see the second icon of Dropbox in the topbar appear again.
8. Click stop and then from file save this as an application anywhere you like. Give a name like "DBMore" or anything you like.
9.Now to make sure everytime you login to your account the second dropbox starts, go to system preferences->users & groups-> select the current user-> click login items on the right->click the + sign to add "DBMore" application you created.
That's it you're done.
10. If you want to be able to differentiate between the two dropbox accounts click on the second dropbox icon in the topbar -> click the gear -> click preferences -> general -> use black and white menu bar icons.
Enjoy! Hope this really helps

Canon image browser no longer works with Mavericks.

I didn't realize until it was too late that Mavericks would be unable to run Canon and HP software we've been using for years.
Now what??

Canon stopped producing this application several years ago. My Image Garden and Easy PhotoPrint are the new products.

IPhone 4s no longer connects to wifi, wifi is greyed, FaceTime no longer works

I have been having issues ever since the iOS 5.1.1 update and I thought with the iOS 6, all these bugs would be fixed. Unfortunately they have not. My iphone's wifi has not worked for several months now. I believe it is the reason my FaceTime no longer works. Weird thing is, is that I can still receive FaceTime calls, but cannot make them myself. The wifi section in settings is greyed and I cannot even switch it back on. It's permanently in the off position. What is going on with my phone . Dissapointed in my Apple product.
PS- We have an Apple wireless home router, top of line, and we have everything Apple in our house specifically to deal with disconnect issues. My iPad works great at home, same with Apple tv. I know it's my phone.

See this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
If it doesn't help you likely have a hardware failure. As your phone is still in warranty take it to an Apple store. Make an appointment first.

Iphone 4s facetime no longer works after sim card change

working fine on everything else. Is there some sort of registration I need to go through with the new SIM card?
Thanks in advance

Contact your carrier.

Presonus FP-10 no longer works after Mavericks update

I updated my Mac Mini to Mavericks and now my Presonus FP-10 will not work. I know that Presonus has made a statement that FP-10 is no longer compatible with Maverick or Mountain Lion. I had it up and running in Mountain Lion. My question is can I reinstall Lion or Mountain Lion to fix this urgent problem. I am using my Mac Mini O SX 10.9 as of now.

I have now managed to get the Canon LBP6300dn printer working on my network (i.e. I did not use USB at all).
In case it helps others, here are the steps I performed.
Infrastructure:
My printer is connected by LAN cable to my Airport Extreme.
The Airport Extreme has a DHCP reservation defined for the printer (e.g. fixed address of 10.1.2.3).
I need A4 as the default paper size, so I installed the UK version of the driver (Mac_CAPT_V365_uk_EN.dmg). I do not know if the locale makes any difference.
I orginally set-up the printer when I used Mountain Lion.
My Mavericks installation on my laptop was clean (i.e. the hard disk was reformatted first)
Set-up:
The printer was switched on and installation was done on my Mavericks laptop over WiFi.
Double-click the .DMG file and follow the instructions.
Open System Preferences | Printers & Scanners.
Click + to add a new printer, the Add dialog should open.
For me, nothing appeared under the Default tab.
Click the IP tab.
In the Address: field: I entered the fixed IP address of my printer (e.g. 10.1.2.3).
The IP address should be automatically validated.
The Protocol: Field was set to Line Printer Daemon - LPD.
After a few seconds, the Use: field should display “Generic PostScript Printer”
Click on the Use: field’s menu to display available options and then pick “Select Software …”
In the Printer Software dialog, select “Canon LBP6300 CAPT (UK)” . Or the equivalent for your locale. Click Ok. Note: I could not get the “Canon LBP6300n CAPT (UK)” to work.
For me, an error “Unable to verify the printer on your network appeared”, but I clicked Continue.
I left the Paper Source Options set to none. (I do not have the 500 cassette.)
I clicked Ok to finish the adding of the printer
After this the printer was finally working for me, including duplex printing.
Anyway, I hope this might help others that are struggling with Mavericks and the Canon LBP6300dn printer.

Which Apple app's will no longer work in Mavericks?

I am using OS 10.8.5 on my MacbookAir. I was contacted by Apple to download a free update to Mavericks, OS 10.9.
I am very suspicious after having been many times forced to buy new apps working under newer Apple operating systems, because some previouly working apps suddenly no longer did after an Apple System upgrade was installed.
I lost mountains of important files created with Applesworks, including important spread sheets and data files which suddenly no longer opened because the Apple appllication used to create them was no longer supported by the newer Apple OS.
I also recall the total mess with earlier iMovie and iDVD updates most of which ensured that previous iMovie and IDVD schemes coukd no longer be opened or used.
Since Apple does not inform users of such problems before the updates are downloaded, maybe it will be of great benefit to get
a reply from other users who have upgraded already to Mavericks.
So which apps, if any will no longer work, if the OS is upgraded to Mavericks?

You were contacted by Apple to download Mavericks? Really?
We wouldn't be able to give you a blow by blow description of which apps will or will not work with Mavericks. There are a lot of people who have upgraded to Mavericks and are not having any issues whatsoever.
There are others who seem to be having every possible issue you can think of.
I would imagine that the difference in experiences here is due to the types of sofware people are running, the amount of CPU capacitity they are using to run various apps, games, etc. Whether or not they are running non-Apple applications, how often they have dropped their laptop, etc.
Since you seem concerned with messes, and problems, and losses of files, then unless you have some burning need to upgrade right at this very moment in it, it seem like it might be prudent to wait.
That's what I am doing. I am perfectly happy with Mountain Lion. There is nothing in Mavericks that I feel I can't live without for awhile. Eventually, I will be upgrading to Mavericks, because I don't want to fall behind in OSX levels for my machine. But for now, there is simply no pressing need to do so.
Bugs are being worked out. Fine tuning is being done. Enhancements are being made.
So, why rush into somehting that has been out for only two months....what's the hurry? It's not going anywhere anytime soon....
