How can I print from my IMAC with Mavericks OS to the Canon MP560 printer's rear tray?

I have just moved from a Windows platform to Imac. On Windows, in Word, I was able to select where the paper was feeding (automatically select, rear tray, etc.) but now I can't select rear tray. I've already tried the "Quality & Media" under presets but was not given an option to change where the paper comes from. Can anybody help?

You need to turn on Printer Sharing on both the PC and OS X. I can't help you on Vista but in OS X it's System Preferences - Sharing - check the Printer Sharing box.

HT204291 can i mirror from my iMac with OS X ?

can i mirror from my iMac with OS X ?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

Can't back-up new iMac with fusion HD. The back-up proceeds to within 10% of the total storage needed and then the "of" number increases. I suspect there is a problem with backing up the fusion drive. We have a new 3 TB time Capsule. Any ideas?

Can't back-up new iMac with fusion HD. The back-up proceeds to within 10% of the total storage needed and then the "of" number increases. I suspect there is a problem with backing up the fusion drive. We have a new 3 TB time Capsule. I tried excluding different parts of the software from the back-up but it didn't make any difference. I even tried exluding "invisible items" to no avail. Any ideas?

When you setup the wireless and ethernet in the computer.. ipv6 will be on automatic.. this is wrong for the latest TC firmware and airport utility. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
Go to the wireless and ethernet setup in preferences and change ipv6 to link local.
Once you do the big backup by ethernet the wireless will function fine for incremental.. it is obviously not estimating the size correctly..
A full back-up on the iMac would be about 650 GB. The partial updates that I have been trying start out at 115MB and keep growing indefinitely. The original back-up never finished nor have any of the follow-up attempts.
The first estimate should be the full backup but it will keep growing as the backup advances.. I would also delete any inprogress files to make sure it is not messing up .. delete even a sparsebundle if there is one for the imac on the TC and start afresh once you have ethernet connection.
See A10 here.
Pondini may have some other clues there to give you an idea of why the backup is slow or not finishing.. there is a lot of issues with TM when it decides not to work.

How can I text from my iMac

Is there a way to send text messages from my iMac, using my iPhone number?

There is a way to send messages over your iMessage account, not SMS. Download "Messages" from the Mac App Store or you can get it free with Mountain Lion/10.8. Macs sync with your iPhone and automatically send/receive SMS messages using the iPhone as a transmitter/receiver and then Wi-Fi will deliver it to your iMac.

Thanks, I'll give that a try. The only thing I have to use as a thumb drive is an old iPod that's only a half a gig in size. I hope that's big enough!

How can I use itunes store credit with Apple TV without the credit card code?

I would like to allow guests in my home to use the credit in my iTunes account to purchase movies and TV shows on the Apple TV in my guest room.
Unfortunately, it seems that in order to make a purchase they will need my credit card security code. If they have this, then they could purchase an arbitrary number of movies, but I would like to limit purchases to the credit in the account.
Is there any solution here? How can I give my guests an Apple TV "allowance" (not a monthly allowance, a one-time allowance) and not give them my credit card security code?

You can't really do this with an already existing AppleID from what I know. Now, if you don't have an AppleID, here's the run-down of how to do it:

How can I tell from my serial number when I bought the computer

I was trying to tell when I bought this computer to see if I can upgrade to Maverick. Is there a way to find out with the serial number? Thanks
Les

Upgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?

How can I sped up my iMac running mavericks

My 2013 Imac is so slow, how can I speed it up?

Please describe the problem in as much relevant detail as possible.
If the computer is slow, which specific actions are slow? Is it slow all the time, or only sometimes? When did it start to be slow? Did you change anything just before it started? Have you seen any alerts or error messages? Have you done anything to try to fix it? Most importantly, do you have a current backup of all data? If the answer to the last question is "no," back up now. Ask if you need guidance. Do nothing else until you have a backup.

How can I upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mavericks?

The thing is, some of my software doesn't yet work in Yosemite, and doesn't in Snow Leopard. I'm on an iMac (≈2010). I haven't downloaded Mavericks on anything else, so I don't have it in the app store, but I got a Macbook which came with Mavericks. Is it possible to do this?

No. Apple has removed Mavericks from downloading since the release of Yosemite.

How can I startup my new iMac with the Diskwarrior DVD

I just bought a 27" iMac and I'm trying to figure out how to start this fantastic machine from my Diskwarrior DVD. It's less than a month old, has 32 GB of ram, and of course it 's running OS X 10.9.4. My old iMac was from 2008 and it had no problem starting up on this DVD. Oh, and the copy of Diskwarrior I'm using is 4.4.
Thanks!

How can recover files from a HD with damaged "permissions"

I had a second HD drive installed on my macbook pro with my iPhoto library and other files stored and, for my own stupid reasons, which had not been backed up for over 3 months. It was actually the original Toshiba boot drive that came with the machine. I replaced it with an SSD over 18 month ago no problems.
The drive now has permission errors which the OS X disk utility cannot repair. I cannot copy the iPhoto library to my main drive and half way through the copying process a get an "error reading disk" message. I cannot open the iPhoto library using iPhoto either.
I decided to remove the HD and replace with a new larger and faster drive as the existing one was probably over 5 years old. No problems with the new drive whatsoever.
I am tried connecting the faulty drive using a USB interface and running the disk repair utility - no difference. Although I was able to copy smaller files other than the iPhoto Library.
I am running 10.10.1.
Is there anyway or any 3rd party app that can recover the iPhoto library? I don't want to waste money buying one of these so called great apps that ends up doing no better than the standard OS X. I read somewhere they all use the same code within OS X to repair anyway!
Ideas appreciated. The iPhoto libabry has my daughters 2nd birthday photos on it and our last holiday therefore I am in big trouble.

Try to to open the iPhoto Lib (right click) and Show Package Contents. Go to the the Masters folder (it must be organized by date folders), choose an image or folder and see if you can copy instead of the iPhoto Lib.

Hp6500 can't scan from control panel with mavericks

I've not found any guidance that says this should not work when the full HP Inkjet software package is installed. I've located, with some difficulty, the 'full' software distribution at HP-Inkjet-SW-OSX-Mavericks_v12.34.44.dmg. I can find no general directory or listing for this software, I just found it through blind luck. Is there such a listing of the latest full package? I have 10.9.3 on an 8G Ram macbook pro. I have completely removed the driver for my e709a Ethernet attached printer and reinstalled it, and then installed this full distribution as well. When I run HP Utility, the 'all settings' button is greyed out, and I can see no way to enable the scan button on the printer's control panel. Is this supposed to work? if so, how? If not, is it going to be fixed one day by HP, or do I just give this printer away and buy a different one? If so, which HP officejet printers support scanning from the printer control panel? thank you.

Hi,
The drivers above are intended for the HP Officejet 6500A (E710) and not for your printer, therefore it cannot locate it.
Scanning from the front panel is not supported for your printer on Mavericks, scanning can only be done via Apple's software as a full feature software is not available for the operating system.
You may scan using Image Capture or Preview as listed below:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03967506&tmp_task=useCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=e...
Newer models as the HP Officejet 6700, Officejet Pro 8610 as example, as well as any current HP Inkjet printer with a Full Feature Software for Mavericks will allow scannig from the front panel.
