Hi, I have a Canon Pixma ix6550 and it will not now print a proper black in the photo mode.

It used to print ok but now the blacks take on a blue tint and do not look at all like the previous ones. I found that if I print in 'normal' mode, it will give me prints that look like the old ones.
Can anybody help me get back to the good photo printing.
Jo

Further to this I have tried printing just a solid black box. It prints a nasty blue color. I have created one box in PS6 on a windows 8 machine and another on an XP with PS5 and they both produce the same nasty blue colour, I have changed printing heads, re-installed printer driver. If I do not use the photo print option but use standard printing, the black prints ok.
Please does anybody have any ideas as this is driving me bonkers.

  • I have a new Pixma MG2400 and it will not print? I have documents in the que, but it will not print.

    This is a brand new printer, right out of the box. On occasion, it will send the paper through, but won't print. This looks like a simple printer? Help please...

  • I have iphoto 9.2.1 and it will not load. The loading screen after I click on the app keeps circling. Can anyone help Please?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • I have a iPod 2nd generation and it will not charge or connect to itunes

    I have a iPod 2nd generation and it will not charge or connect to itunes, I have tried pressing the power button and home botton together and nothing happened.

    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.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar       
    Also:
    - See:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable
    - Try another charging source
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.

  • Hello I have a imac G5 17" and it will not boot up.

    Hello, I have a imac G5 17" and it will not boot up...... There isn't any chime when you turn it on and the led light will come and fade out a little but will stay on and the screen will stay black. Does any one have any suggestions on what's wrong and how to fix it?
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    The bottom of that article says to contact an authorized service technician.  You may also find that simply replacing the PRAM battery (the coin shaped battery) helps.   Note: if you have any capacitors that are labelled X on their top (as opposed to just K), you may have the problem of the leaking capacitors which required a power supply and/or logicboard replacement.  The leaking capacitor was an industry wide problem.

    Try:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset Network Settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    Could this be the problem?
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    It is unclear from your description what happens when you try to connect.

  • I have an ipod classic original and it will not connect to itunes for me to sync new music

    i have an ipod classic original and it will not connect to itunes for me to sync new music

    The first two generations of iPod (that used a standard 6-pin Firewire cable) don't work with Windows. There was a workaound through MusicMatch for the second-gen, but I have no idea if that software is still available, or even if it will install on a modern copmputer (Windows ME, 2000 and XP era).
    If instead of original, you mean the first model that got labelled as "classic," with a dock connector, if you describe exactly what appears on both the iPod and the PC screen when you plug it in, somebody might be able to help you. My first recommendations would be to (1)try a different USB cable, to see if that's the problem, and then (2) try synching with a different computer, to see if your PC is the problem. If neither of those result in success, then the community here can help you to try troubleshooting the iPod itself.

  • After installing ios5 and having had to change my apple id to e-mail address I am unable to download updates as they were purchased under my previous id and it will not allow me to get back into the old id  Help please.

    After installing ios5 and having had to change my apple id to e-mail address I am unable to download updates as they were purchased under my previous id and it will not allow me to get back into the old id  Help please.

    Make sure you enter your new Id in settings/message, settings/facetime.  ANy content that you downloaded with the old ID is forever linked to that old ID and if you have apps that were downloaded with the old ID and you want to update them you can only do that with the old ID.  You could delete those apps and downlad them again ( and pay for them if they are not free apps)

    What are you using to search? You should be able to search any drive in from the Finder. If you're having trouble, try "EasyFind" from the App Store (free). You can search any volumes with it.
