Has anyone successfully gotten an HP Color Laserjet 2600n to print from OSX Lion?

I have it installed by IP address with the drivers that Apple Update provided. When I send a print job to it, the status shows that it's connected and printing and the little sideways barber pole is screwing away, but the job never prints. As a matter of fact, the printer never even starts its warm-up cycle. Has anyone gotten this printer to work on a bone stock OSX Lion 10.7 image? This iMAC 27 is brand-freakin-new.
I have absolutely no printing issues from any of the 5 (cringe) - Windows 7 machines in the house.
Thanks for looking. I hope to have some helpful response soon.

KJameZzZ179 and PAHU - I appreciate you guys taking the time out of your busy schedules to help me. I pinged the printer and it replied. I pulled up its web interface and the gateway and subnet settings matched the settings on my iMac. I opened a PDF and sent it to the printer successfully. I don't know what the hold up was, and while I am glad that I can print now, I am equally disappointed that I wasn't able to find the root of the problem so we could provide an answer to anyone else in the future that might have had the same problem. Thanks again for your responses and willingness to help.

HP Color LaserJet 2600n quit printing on an XP machine

Even though my HP Color LaserJet 2600n shows "ready" on my XP control panel screen for printers, it just quit communicating with my XP system. I have it connected via an Apple Time Machine and found it easy to connect to the printer from any computer in the house (desktops, laptop, netbook, Apple). It worked fine for a long time but now I can't get my XP system to connect to the 2600n. Anyone have a suggestion on what I should do to regain the ability to print to this printer from my XP desktop? Thanks in advance.
PS - Although I know this sounds wrong, I didn't install any new software or make any other changes to my system. It was printing fine yesterday and today - nothing! I've rebooted the PC and the printer. There are no error messages on the printer - it simply says "Ready". What am I missing?

Download and run this on the XP machine. I suspect a security system update or change, but let's let the utility tell us.

Has anyone successfully gotten Endnote X5 to work with Word 2011 on OS 10.7.5?

I just get the error in Word that Word can't fire the event. The Endnote toolbar does not show up in Word.

Endnote sys that X5 is not compatible with Mountain Lion due to a "bug" in the OS and suggests buying their "new" Endnote X6. They also offered two workarounds so far that have not worked saying that it is Apples responsibility to fix this "bug". Their support replied to me as follows:
Thank you for contacting Thomson Reuters Technical Support.
EndNote X5 is not officially compatible with Mac 10.8. The issue that you face is due to a known bug in Mac 10.8.2 update for Apple's Mountain Lion operating system.
If you would like to read a technical description of this underlying bug within Apple's 10.8.2 operating system update, the following blog post outlines the issue:
http://brian-webster.tumblr.com/post/32830692042/a-workaround-for-aesendmessage- hanging-on-os-x-10-8-2
For more information on EndNote’ compatibility please refer to the following link:
http://help.thomson.com/default.asp?portalid=TSCINT&article=113230
In order to work around this issue until the underlying problem is addressed by Apple, please follow the steps given below:
1. Open your Activity Monitor. Activity Monitor is found inside a folder called "Utilities", which is inside your "Applications" folder.
2. With the Activity Monitor running, choose "All Processes" from the "Show" drop-down and then sort the display by the "Process Name" column by clicking the column's label.
3. After sorting this list by Process Name, look for a process called 'appleeventsd'. If you are able to find the appleeventsd process, highlight this entry and click "Quit Process".
4. When you are prompted to confirm this action, press "Force Quit".
5. Once appleeventsd has been reset by the Force Quit selection, switch back to EndNote to see if you're still experiencing slowness.
6. Also try inserting citations in Word and see if you are getting any error message.
As you mentioned, EndNote X6.0.2 update was released to address this issue. Since you have EndNote X5 you will not be able to install this patch for a permanent fix on this. And since you already own a previous version of EndNote, you will be entitled for an upgrade version of EndNote X6. These upgrade versions are priced lesser than the full versions. For EndNote X4 and X5 users, they will be entitled for a 30% discount on this upgrade price considering this bug. If you wish to avail this offer, please visit:http://endnote.com/buy/online and use the coupon code: techup.
Please visit the following Knowledge Base article for more information:
http://help.thomson.com/default.asp?portalid=TSC&article=123873
If you wish to use EndNote X5 and if the tools are still missing in Word, please make sure that the Visual basic component for Microsoft Word 2011 is installed. Visual Basic is required for the use of EndNote X5 with Word 2011. If it is not installed, run a custom installation of Office 2011, selecting Visual Basic for Applications. This component of Office is mandatory for Cite While You Write tools to work.
If the issue continues, it possible that the issue can happen if the Word documents Gallery is set to open. Please check to make sure this option is not checked in Word.
1) In Word, go to the Word menu / Preferences / General.
2) Uncheck the option labeled Open Word Documents Gallery when application opens.
3) Press OK.
4) Quit Word by going to Word menu / Quit Word.
5) Open EndNote with your library.
6) Open Word.
This will get the EndNote toolbar appearing in Word. If the issue continues, it is possible that the EndNote Cite While You Write add-ins might be disabled in Word. Please follow the below steps to re-enable the tools as follows:
a. Open a Word document.
b. Go to "Tools > Templates and Add-Ins".
c. You should see the below EndNote files listed under "Global Templates and Add-ins"
EndNote CWYW Commands.dot
EndNote CWYW Word 2011.bundle
d. If any of these file(s) are unchecked, check it, and click OK.
If the above files are not listed in "Global Templates and Add-ins", then I would recommend you to follow the steps given to check the Word Startup folder and set that in the Customizer:
1. In Word, click the Word menu next to the apple and choose Preferences.
2. Click File Locations.
3. Click on Startup and then click Modify.
4. Browse to Applications---Microsoft Office 2011---Office---Startup---Word. Click Choose. (Please note: For non English version of Word, the name of the Startup folder may be different. Please choose your closest language equivalent in this location).
5. Click OK on the Preferences window.
6. Close Word.
7. Open EndNote and your library.
8. Click on the EndNote menu next to the apple.
9. Choose Customizer.
10. Check the option for Cite While You Write. Click Next.
11. Click Next and the process should complete----click “Done”.
If the tools are still not present in the Tools menu of Word, please close Word then copy and paste the EndNote CWYW Word 2011.bundle file into your Word startup folder:
Bundle file: Applications | EndNote X5 | Cite While You Write | EndNote CWYW Word 2011.bundle
Word startup folder: Applications | Microsoft Office 2011 | Office | Startup | Word
Close and reopen Word. Please check whether the EndNote tools appear in Word and that you are able to click on them.
Once again I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. Please check if this helps in resolving your issue and kindly let me know if you need any further assistance.
Based on the solution provided above, this case will be closed and no further action is required on your part. However, if this does not resolve your issue, please reply to this email and your case will be immediately reopened for additional support.
Sincerely,

Has anyone successfully gotten their upgrade dates moved up ?

I see people saying they did, but I think they may be lying. I figured if I could get some answers, it would be worth a try. If you did, how'd you do it?

How far are you wanting it moved up? Weeks? Months?
Well, we accomplished this in several steps. 1st - DH requested a date change from March 30 to February 3. He was told no, but that they would move it to February 9. They were worried they would not have enough IPhones for the Verizon customers who were already due for an upgrade. Dh went around and around with them, spoke to supervisors and could not get the date moved any further. He waited a few days and called again. Still no luck. Well, I decided to take matters into my own hands and sent a very nice email to customer service telling them that I had been a loyal customer for 15 years and had waited 4 years for Verizon to get the IPhone and that I would really love to get one, blah blah blah. Basicaly, a sob story with a lot of begging. Low and behold, 12 hours later, I had a very nice response letting me know that my upgrade date was moved up to February 3. But, I chose to wait until the 10th so I could get it activated in the store and in my hands should there be any issues.
So, if you have been told no, keep trying. If still told no, try sending a very nice email requesting your date moved up. You can also ask in the store. They have the same authority to move dates up.
If you have more than a couple of month tho, I am not sure if you will have any success.

Color LaserJet 2600n Erratic Printing

I've had the printer for a while. It's been fine until now. Then it stopped printing or printed only very faintly. I turned it off, then on again, and it printed very well. BUT, it will only print one job. Then it has to be turned off/on again. The online chat was not very helpful. Because I print in grayscale with override on, the tech at first thought the problem was that the color toner cartridges were completely empty and so nothing would print. So I replaced the cartridges, which had indeed been in for a long time, although I never had problems printing even with the "replace supplies" message on. . .but that did not solve the problem. The only thing the tech said was there was an "issue with the internal hardware" of the printer. She/he could not or would not explain further. I was referred to a local repairer, who told me that HP doesn't support this printer and that it was best to throw it away. Does anyone know what's wrong with it and is the repair person right? I hate to discard it, especially since now I have to eat about $200 worth of toner cartridges which are virtually unused but of course not returnable because they're installed. . .thanks for any help/info/advice.

Color Laserjet 2600n monochrome printing

OK, I am too broke to spring 90 bucks for a magenta cartridge when I only want to print black and white documents. Is there some way to tell the printer that it is OK to ignore empty color toner cartridges and just use the black one for monochrome printing until I hit the lottery?
Thanks

Fresh install of 10.6.2 can't add HP Color LaserJet 2600n to printers.

From the start:
Just got my laptop back from Apple (replaced mainboard) and decided to start over so I upgraded the HD to a 500 GB and reinstalled the System fresh. No personal files added yet. I also ran all of the Software Updates as normal and here it sites now with this problem when I went to add my printer:
The HP Color LaserJet 2600n is connected to the Airport wireless network by direct Ethernet cable to the router. The MacBook is connected via Wi-Fi.
Add Printer sees the HP printer via Default/Bonjour. Click it, name it, it already chose "HP Color LaserJet 2600n" for Print Using: (driver). At the very bottom it says in small print "The selected printer software is available from Apple. Click Add to download it and add this printer." I click add and immediately a pop up says "Software Update can't check for updates because of a network problem. The selected printer software is available from Apple, but you are not connected to the Internet."
So I can't add the printer although I can see it! This is bogus. It worked before. And how could it "know" Apple has the driver if the Internet connection wasn't working? Well, the Internet connection IS working. That is the other part of this that makes no sense. It works fine. I'm on the very same connection right now typing this. Software Update gave me no issues using it going through Software Update and not the printer driver update part..
What gives?

Can't help with the wireless muckup since I don't that. Two options. One, hook up directly, bypassing the wifi stuff, and try adding it. Or, two, download the update: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907

Why does IE 9 say internal error and cannot print to Color Laserjet 2600n?

IE 9 displays message "Internal error, cannot print page" when I try to print to a networked Color Laserjet 2600n. Printing works well on my other networked HP printer.

The windows 8 driver for this printer should be available in late January. Please bookmark this site and visit it for up to date information. Also located on this site are links to documents for the network workaround and the in-os document.
Laserjet Printers supported in Windows 8
Install HP print software via a network in Windows 8
As a test, I did install this using the windows 7 drivers, it printed fine but I received a pop up giving me an error printing but it still printed. I then used the network work around to shut the bi-di off and the pop up went away, again it printed fine. I would suggest if you use the windows 7 drivers, that you upgrade to the windows 8 drivers when they are available.

Has anyone actually gotten the 2.2 Software Upgrade to work?

I know there are numerous threads about the 2.2 Software Upgrade and how it's not working.
Has anyone actually gotten it to work??
If you have, please reply with what you did to make it work, how long it took you, etc..
Thanks in advance!

Thank you, Thank you Henry1---I hit update, unplugged my iPod-touch,and whala!! the update downloaded to my itunes account. I did have to pay when I had first bought it thru itunes- I tried updating, and syncing several times in the past week or two without success. While my ipod was unplugged I also reset my network settings on the ipod under the settings, general, reset menus before I plugged it back in. When I plugged it back in I had to hit update again to download it to the ipod and then sync to get any applications/games to go on to the ipod. Thanks again Henry1--we were racking our brains trying to figure out if we had the "right network settings" on the computer and/or the computer.

Has anyone successfully managed to get VZW to raplace Fascinate with a different phone?

Has anyone successfully managed to get VZW to raplace Fascinate with a different phone?
If so, could you share with me on how you convinced VZW to do it?(which department?)
I love my Fascinate, but not when it can't get calls. I would prefer to have a Fascinate with
zero problems, but that appears unlikely. So I guess my best option is to get a different
phone(Samsung, Motorola, or others)
Thanks!

I successfully got a swap out of my Fascinate with a Droid Incredible 2.
I private messaged VZW agents on these forums the following message and through the course of 3-5 days I successfully was granted an expception and allowed to swap out my device (with no contract extension or upgrade eligiblity extenstion). This was after several phone calls and numberous wasted hours trying to convince them the Fascinate was not a good phone.
If I have been rude in any way during this message, I sincerely apologize, I did not mean it. I am a frsutrated owner of a bad piece of electronics. I am aware it is not VZW's fault, but I think you need to stand beind the phones you sell and rectify situations that are bad.
I am a Samsung Fascinate owner and to say the least this phone has been the biggest source of frustration I have ever had to endur in the 20+ years I have owned a cellular phone.
The have been number rous issues with my original phone and the replacement (certified replacement) phone I have gotten. These issues include, but are not limited to:
1. glitchy UI
2. constant forecloses and freezes
3 auto reboots
4. inoperable phone for 20 - 30 minutes at a time. Can't access apps, can't make calls, can't send texts, phone is useless to me.
5. not receiving calls/texts
6. missing voicemails
7. increased battery drain
8. random flickering of screen lights while using the phone.
Now I have performed the following steps at the suggestion of VZW tech support on both my orginal phone an replacement phone
1. Hard resets, factory resets
2. Soft resets,
3. Clear cache on the phone
4. Removing apps
5. Updating roaming capabilities
After all these issues and all the suggestion on fixes, the phone still performs poorly and is not a reliable phone at all. Like I stated previously i am beyond frustrated.
I am aware these problems are software issues not a hardware issue; a refurbed Fascinate will not correct them. Hard resets do not fix the problems. I have scoured the message boards on this website (VZW forums) and I am aware the VERIZON is aware of all these issues with multiple Fascinate users.
I am asking to be allowed to swap my Fascinate for another, DIFFERENT model of phone. I am fine if that is a refurb, as long as it is a DIFFERENT model of phone and not a Fascinate. I know this is possible because users on your very own forum are stating it has been done. I am asking it be done in my case
Best thing I can say is stick to it....sitck to you guns and don't back down and don't be allowed to think there is afix when there is not.

Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive?

Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive? Apple support tech tried to tell me it wasn't possible and that the only NAS Time Machine could back up to is the Time Capsule, but I'm not buying it. I know it's doable, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which External HDDs will work and which ones won't. If not My Book for Mac, is there an External HDD that will work? (Running OS X 10.9.1 - Mavericks, btw...)

Given the nature of backups, my recommendation has always been to use a strategy that is unequivocally supported by Apple. As you already determined Apple Support unequivocally informed you that your proposal will not work, unless your router is an Apple AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule.
The exhaustive list of devices supported by Time Machine amounts to the following:
AirPort Time Capsule's built-in hard disk (any model)
External USB hard disk drive connected to a Time Capsule (any model)
External USB hard disk drive connected to an AirPort Extreme (current model only)
A hard disk drive directly connected to your Mac
That is all.
Use whatever backup device you want, but you should be aware that this site is full of reports of misery from hapless individuals who had been using NAS devices for Time Machine backups, only to find that they were incomplete, corrupted, or useless when they were required. Apple won't care if you lose your data while using a Time Machine configuration specifically excluded from their technical support documents.

Has anyone successfully connected an AEBS to the new Panasonic TVs with built-in WiFi? If so, please describe the requirements and process. (TV subscription is through DirecTV and ISP is TWC.) Thanks.

If you wish to use the cellular capabilities of a device, you will need a SIM (unless the carrier uses CDMA which doesn't use SIMs) and you will have to pay a cell carrier. No cell company provides service for free. The only way you will get free Internet is via WiFi to a free and open WiFi access point, as sometimes is offered in public buildings or by some businesses.

Has anyone successfully got a refund on graphics card fault

My Mac Mini (mid 2011) purchases in February 2012 has died. The graphics chip has gone and the display is some funky colours at boot before it crashes and reboots. I'm unable to login at all, even via safe mode.
It's almost 3 years old to the day and i'm covered by UK law for 6 years. But has anyone successfully got a refund or replacement?
I'm concerned they might want to take it in to test and try to repair it, but presumably that would mean an entirely new motherboard and i can't be without a Mac (my main computer) for so long. Do they even make / have in stock Mid 2011 Mac Minis anyway? I'd guess not.
Should i go ahead and buy a new one with the reassurance i'd get some money back?
I've made no alterations to the mac other than to upgrade the ram from 4GB to 8GB.
thanks

Apple never mad a promise to replace the Mac. Only to fix your OR replace at Apple's option.
