HELP INSTALLING HP 3110 PRINTER WITH 2.0 COMPOSITE USB TO WINDOWS 8 NOTEBOOK WITH USB 3.0

Need help installing HP PhotoSmart 3110 All in One Printer with USB 2.0 composite. Errors with message can't work properly with USB 3.0 which is on my new Windows 8 notebook. Read forum support doc for installing device on Windows 8 and ran Printer Install Wizard. Goes thru extracting and errors "the system can't find the file specified".
HELP please. Have deadline on project.
Thank you!

Your V5-122p-0408 comes with only 1 USB 3 port, did you try both?
If the printer worked fine on another computer then the problem most likely in on the V5.
Are you running 8 or 8.1?

How do i install a new printer with no dvd?

how do i install a new printer with no dvd?

Hook it up and see if it works. If it is one of the more common printer brands/models, it could very well have it's drivers installed, depending on how your OS was installed. If not, you can always go to the support site for your printer and download the drivers, if necessary.
What kind of printer do you have? What OS and how was it installed?

We need help installing our new printer

We bought a new HP Photosmart 7520e printer because our old one wasn't working with our computer. We were assured by the salespeople that it would be compatible with Windows 8.
That doesn't appear to be the case! We've used the CD that came with it, tried to use the install wizard, the hpdoctor and nothing works. We still can't print.
there must be a simple way of doing this. Not to show our age but we remember when you plugged it in, ran the CD and you were Done!
Help us please

Hi mrschwartz,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you are trying to install your new HP Photosmart 7520 on Windows 8. I am happy to help you!
For further assistance, I will need to know:
If the printer is connected, Wireless, or USB.
If the printer is able to make copies by itself.
If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
If there were any error messages during the install.
Hope to hear from you, and have a nice day!

Need help installing Canon network printer on Mountain Lion

I am trying to install a Canon MF4270 network printer with my Macbook Air running Mountain Lion.
I added the printer using its IP, and selected the MF4200 driver from the list that came installed with the OS. The printer worked, but it would not allow me to print double-sided (the option was greyed out). Some research showed that other people with similar problems simply updated the printer driver.
I checked the driver version and it said 2.0. I went to the Canon website and downloaded the newest version of the driver, which said 2.43.
I re-added the printer with the new driver. Same problem.
So I deleted the driver and the list of associated files, given to me by Canon tech support (I verified then that the MF4200 driver was no longer on the list), then installed the new driver (restarting my computer at every step). I re-added the printer.
Now, it doesn't work at all. When I try to print, I get the following message: "Canon UFR II Printer Driver / Cannot communicate with the printer, or the printer is not supported. If the printer is supported, check the printer connection and add it again, then start Printer Utility to get the printer information."
I tried adding the printer using the Generic PostScript Printer driver, and when I print, it says that it is printing and I get no errors, but nothing prints.
Now, I can't print at all, and no one at Canon or Apple has been able to solve the problem.
Please help.

First, delete the print queue in the Print & Scan preference pane, if you haven't already done so.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Caches/Canon/CUPSCAPT/CCPD/ccpd.conf
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu. A Finder window should open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Trash. You may be prompted for your login password.
Recreate the print queue.

I have Mavericks installed. Cannot print with IPhoto because there are no themes

I cannot print with IPhoto because it says that I do not have themes. How do I install themes? JL

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
*Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

Help: Resizing images for Printing with CS3

Hello All,
Thus far, I've done most of my printing with my Epson 3800 on paper below 8.5 x 11 which was no problem. Now I'd like to do some larger stuff like 13 x 19 and 17 x 25. Image size is 3504 x 2336 psd. @ 360ppi. (workflow is RAW to Adobe RGB 16-bit 8.2MP) I'd like to maintain the 360ppi resolution, but resize to say 12 x 18 or larger and then apply final sharpening.
My confusion is with the up-sizing steps themselves. I've heard it's best to increase image x% over target image size via Bicubic(?) and then to reduce x% to target size using Bicubic sharpener(?) or something to that effect. Can someone please walk me through the process so I can get the hang of it? Thank you!
Mike

Sounds like one of those tales from an older technology.
Just use the resampling method as recommended in the Image size dialog

Help installing itunes on laptop with Windows Vista.

I have a laptop with Windows Vista. I've tried to download iTunes but I keep getting a message that says "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for his install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personel or package vendor." I read a thread that suggested removing all Apple components then restarting. I was unable to remove Apple Software Update. All other components were removed fine. Someone please help. Thanks.

Need help installing OS on iMac with no OS

Hi,
I just bought an iMac G4 15" Flat panel 800 mhz from the University of Wisconsin Madison. They surplus computers often but they have to strip all software off including operating systems. They have reassured me that this one works it just needs to have the OS installed.
I have a full install family pack for OS X 10.1 (for powermac g4's) and have been trying to install it by holding down the "c" key after the chime. The problem is that the keyboard lights up initially but then it acts dead. I've tested the keyboard with other computers and it works fine. The usb hubs work fine too. I believe it's because it doesn't have an operating system that nothing is registering. I just get the beautiful flashing question mark face. The drive is CD-RW/DVD-Rom and it definitely sounds like it's working. I've gone into open firmware and had to do "eject cd" because the cd won't eject when pressed on the keyboard (because like i said earlier, the keyboard acts dead). this type of iMac doesn't seem to have any way to open the cd other than the keyboard. I'm ultimately going to put Tiger on it since i have a family pack upgrade but i need to get the first OS on before i can do anything. I'm considering using firewire target mode and copying something from one of my other mac's just to get it started.
If anyone can help, it would be very appreciated! I have searched the discussions and when people have asked how to install the OS respondents simply say "it's probably a stolen computer" or "it probably doesn't work". I know this computer is legit - it came from a computer lab at the UW-Madison. Thank you!!

"I wasn't trying to install the Powerbook software but the PowerMac software that i use on my G4's. The iMac says it's a Powermac G4 iMac so i thought it would work."
No, same difference. If those disks are not for the G4 iMac, they will not work.
I would just wait for the Tiger disks to arrive.
BTW, if you have less than 512MB of RAM, I would strongly recommend that you upgrade to at least that much. Tiger is a pretty RAM hungry OS and will want at least 512MB.

Help installing Brother 4100e printer on MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion

I can't install my Brother 4100e printer on MacBook Pro. It is listed on the support page as a printer that software is available for. I have updated my software. I have done everything that I know to do. When I plug the printer into my computer it downloads the software but then I get a message that it can't install it because the software is not available from Apple. When I try to manually install the printer the message at the bottom of the box is that the software is available but when I try to install I get a box that says software isn't available.
Its probably something simple I am doing wrong but I don't know what it is. I've been a Windows person all my life and got this Mac a couple months ago from my husband as a gift. If I can't print anything.... I am about to throw it out the window and go back to Windows... that's my frustration level.
Please help.

I would try a couple of things:
Go to Applications --> Utilities and double click on Disk Utility. In there, select your hard disk in the left pane (should appear as Macintosh HD unless it's been changed). Then click on Repair Permissions. Try connecting the printer again and going to System Preferences --> Printer and Fax and click on the "+" sign and see if your printer shows up in the left pane. If it does, click on it to select it and add it.
The above assumes the printer is connected via USB, since you didn't say you were trying to connect it wirelessly.
You might also try, if the above doesn't work, rebooting your MacBook Pro and trying again.

Need help installing Leopard. Stuck with Gray Screen with looping circle!!!

I currently have Mac OS X 10.2.1 installed in my G4. Never upgrade since i got it. I purchased Leopard and tried to install it.
After I put the DVD in and clicked Install it restarted my computer. Then it started the installation process. 10 minutes later it stopped and said installation failed. Disk is dirty. I finally got the DVD and and tried again but all i got was the gray screen with the looping circle.
I tried re-installing 10.2.1 then try Leopard again. After asking me to restart my computer nothing happen. No installation process. Just a gray screen with the looping circle for over 10 hours. (left it over night)
What should I do? Can this be fixed? How can I install Leopard??????
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get out your Jaguar installer disc and boot from it. After the installer loads and you select your language the menu bar should appear. Select Disk Utility from the File menu. After DU loads select your hard drive from the list on the left then click on the First Aid tab. Click on the Repair Disk button. Wait until the repair process is completed. If any errors are reported that have been fixed, re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported and the disk is pronounced OK. If DU is unable to repair the drive, then you will need something like Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro to repair the drive. Once your drive is properly prepared boot from the Leopard installer DVD. When you get to the point of selecting the destination drive click once on your hard drive then click the Options button. Select the Archive and Install option. Do not select the option to preserve the user folder and network preferences as these may be damaged. Click on the OK button and complete the installation. Be sure to use the same username and password that you use now for the admin account.
Your hard drive will not be erased and your old system will be saved in a Previous System Folder located at the root directory of your hard drive. You should then be able to transfer your personal data from the PSF to the newly installed system.
BTW, repairing permissions will not fix your problem.

SUCCESS - now installed Oki c9800 printer with Snow Leopard - solution

I had tried over and over with uninstall and reinstall to make my Oki c9800 printer work to no avail. After reading another post I tried the same suggestion but changing the name for my own printer and it works with Snow Leopard. (The original post of this solution is at
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2141179&tstart=0 - Matt's answer)
SOLUTION:
The Oki installer has set permissions incorrectly.
Open the Terminal application (/Applications/Utilities).
Copy and paste the following command into a Terminal window:
sudo chown -R root:admin /Library/Printers/Oki/
Then hit the Return or Enter key. Enter your administrator's password at the prompt.
NOTE: Make sure the printer name, in my case 'Oki', is exactly the same spelling and case. When I put in OKI it didn't work. I had to put in 'Oki' as in my Printers folder.

*My Solutions*
I used a tiger or leopard box and shared the printer through it. no driver required on SL end.

Help Installing Leopard and issues with partition maps.

Hi, i've been trying to install leopard on my MacPro G5 to no avail, as my super-drive had failed, i've tried pulling out the HDD and mounting it via an external enclosure and connecting the mounted HDD to my Intel based mac and installing Leopard from a disc running from my Intel based mac to the mounted HDD from my MacPro.
The problem i've encountered is with the partition maps, OSX installer does not allow me to install Leopard onto the external HDD with Apple Partition Map and insists i re-partition it as GUID which i can't do so as it'll mean i wouldn't be able to boot it from my MacPro G5, thus i'm wondering if anyone have an idea on how to get Leopard installed in such circumstances.
Thanks!

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
First, let's get the terms straight.
There is a Mac Pro, which is an Intel processor, using EFI and utilizing the GUID partition map.
There is a G5, which is a PPC processor, using Open Firmware and the APM scheme.
There is no Mac Pro G5
A Mac Pro can use an APM mapped drive to boot from, but cannot install an OS to it.
In order to install an OS to a drive while installed in or connected to a Mac Pro, the drive must be formatted using the GUID scheme.
A G5 must use an APM formatted drive to boot.
To install Leopard on a G5, one must use a retail version of Leopard (not a gray disc that shipped with an Intel Mac), boot to the install disc, format the drive and install.

Need help installing new hard drive and wiping the old one for Windows XP.

I’ve searched to try and figure out the answer to my question and haven’t been too successful, so hopefully someone can help me out. I have a new Mac Pro that I haven’t even turned it on yet because I’m waiting for some upgrades to show up. Here is what I plan to do, I’m unsure of what I need to do and what order to do it in:
It has a stock 250GB hard drive that I plan to wipe and install Windows XP on. I have a new 750GB drive coming that will run Leopard which will be my primary OS. Once I have this set up, I will probably try running VM Fusion which I assume I can install later on. Here are my questions:
When I put my new blank 750GB drive in to install Leopard, will OS X boot up off the Leopard install disc to then allow me to do the install?
When do I wipe the smaller drive to put Windows on it, before or after I’ve installed Leopard on the new drive? How should I wipe it, using the Bootcamp setup assistant or Disc Utility? If I wipe it after installing Leopard, will I be prompted for which drive to boot from?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't use Windows, but I think the proper order to do things would be this:
First, if your Mac Pro came with Tiger installed, when you start it up for the first time, you'll need to go through some initial setup, create an administrator account, etc. You can go ahead and do this.
Afterwards, you can install your 750 GB drive. Next, you can insert your Leopard disk, and go to System Preferences/Startup Disk to choose to start up from the disk. (Alternatively, if you just choose "Install Mac OS X" from the disk, it will instruct you to restart the mac.)
When the mac boots from the disc, install Leopard on your 750. Once you have that done, and have booted from that drive, you'll be able to erase your 250 in Disk Utility, and then install Windows on it.
