How do I install an HP Designjet 130 printer on a Mac running OSX Maverick?

I am a new Apple user. I have an HP Designjet printer which I formerly used on a Windows machine. I would like to install it on my new Macbook. Any help would be appreciated.

The first thing to do you need to go to HP's web site and see if there are any driver updates for your printer for Mac. If you computer is running plug in your printer and go to System Preferences and choose Printer and and see if your printer is recognized and choose your printer as default printer and see if it works.

How can I install a Brother DCP 165C printer that my mac is not finding?

I have just bought a DCP 165C second hand, so it doens't come with a CD for installing. I have however downloaded the driver for mac from the Brother website and installed it into my computer, and it said the installation was succesful. I then plug the printer to my computer, via USB, then I go to add my printer as I normally would and have; through preferences- but it's not showing up in Default. I have tried Advanced but I don't know what to put in the url because of course the printer doesn't have one, it's just there, connected via USB.
I have also resetted the printer system and now don't know what else to do.
I really need to print, please help!

It just doesn't want to work...
It is not recognising anything and if I go to add printer, no printers come up.
I'm waiting for a new USB cable to see if that is the problem
I'm sure this is maddening for you.
To be sure the printer works, can you print a report, e.g., User Settings, using the LCD Panel?
Your screenshot shows the window titled, Install BrotherTWAIN, which is the software for the scanner. The window for the printer software title should be, Install BrotherCLDrivers. If you have not already done so, download the CUPS Printer Driver. Then install and try to add it in Sys Pref > Print & Scan. If the problem persists, try the Brother troubleshooting steps for print issues with USB connections.
As for the "Failed to connect to the device" error, that used to happen often with my Brother MFC device for the scanner. Turning the unit off, waiting 30 seconds, and then turning the unit back on works. However, my unit is connected to my network and I scan using other software, i.e., not the Brother Control Center software.
I just noticed that the USB port is inside the DCP-165c printer. You might double check that the cover is not pinching cable anywhere along its path.
HTH and Good Luck!

Just double-click the zip file to open it.
There is no Mac version of Access, so how you're going to open the Access file remains to be seen.

Designjet 130 printer with Epson paper?

Anyone tried printing with a Designjet 130 printer on Epson paper stock? The reason I ask is I'm considering replacing my Epson 4000 with a Designjet 130r and still have a lot of Epson paper stock on hand. I guess I'd be on my own as far as developing the ICC profiles for the various paper types. Money is tight and I hate to waste the paper, on the other hand I don't want to spend any more money on ink for the 4000, most of which ends up in the maintenance tank due to constant pen clogs and cleaning cycles.

This forum is focused on consumer level products. For the Designjet you may have better results posting in the HP Enterprise Designjet forum here.

Installed the new Lightroom 5 CC on a Mac running the OX X Yosemite version 10.10.3 (14D136) Lightroom starts to load but within a 1/2 sec it closes. Is there a fix?

I had the same problem earlier today. Sign out of your account for CC in the Preferences panel, close the CC toolbar app. Then sign back in, and the download process might begin in earnest for you. Took me SIX HOURS to download this pig, and now it crashes continually. This software is not ready for release based on today's experience. Hopefully you will at least be able to get to the level of frustration I have arrived at, beyond the level of frustration you are currently stuck at trying to get it to work.I am on the same OS. Too bad Apple abandoned a pro level competitor to LR. Hopefully in the near future they will update Photos so that it competes well with LR.

Installed Acrobat update 11.0.07 on a Mac running OSX10.7.5, and now it crashed constantly. It seems to crash almost every time I close a document, or when I open a 2nd document. Sometimes it crashes immediately upon opening a document, but on occasion I am able to open and close 3 or 4 documents in a row before it crashes. I've had dozens of crashes today. Had no problems at all before the update.

Yes, I too can see same problem with the above link. However the steps from that page are as follows:

If you hit the delete key you will be asked to confirm you want to delete the photo(s) from the catalog.
To delete an item right-click (or hold two fingers on the track pad) on the green album icon under the thumbnail and choose remove from album.
You can also select a batch of thumbnails in an album and click on a green icon to remove them all from the album.
If you cant see the green album icons, move the zoom slider slightly to the right to make the thumbnails bigger.
Try again from the Organizer with your 600D. After launching the Organizer app press Cmd+G for the downloader. Connect your camera and try refresh from the top pull down menu or try browsing for your device.
If it is still not working copy your files from the storage card to a folder in Pictures. Then use the menu:
File >> Get Photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders

How/Can I install WINDOWS 7 64BIT on a 1st Generation Mac Pro ?

Hi, Is it possible to install Windows 7 64 bit on a 1st Generation Mac Pro 2.66Ghz? Apple suggests that it's not possible and yet I've seen several Googled posts where the users have successfully installed 64 bit on a 1st Generation Mac Pro. The problem is that they've done this creating a bootable iso disk(whatever that is) using a Windows computer with imgburn and windows commands. I'm pretty good at following instructions but I haven't seen any instructions on how to install Windows 7 on this machine using a Mac based approach.
I'm using BootCamp and was able to partition the drive into NFTS and "proceed" with installation; however all te installations failed during setup and Windows would not boot; disk repair was not possible. Besides, from what I've gathered, 32 bit is problematic around memory issues.
When I try installing 64 bits, I never get past the "select cd rom 1or 2" message where the keyboard won't work. It is at this point where others say they have successfully proceeded with moving forward by creating a bootable iso disk.
Problem is it's all Windows based with exe files and presupposes I already have Windows running.
I'm not sure I really understand how to create an iso disk, but I do have ROXIO TOAST 10 which is capable of burning "ISO" disks.Does anyone know how to do this and/or can you point me to a place where there are instructions on how to proceed?? While I realize Apple says that some mid 2006 mac pros aren't supported, there are multiple posts of windows users successfully installing Windows 7 on a 1st Generation Mac Pro.
Thanks.

I have a March 2009 Mac Pro dual quad core running Win7 Pro 64 bit. I have Windows installed on a dedicated internal hard drive. There are no partitions, the entire drive is for Windows use.
Here's how I installed it, I did not start with BootCamp. Make sure the drive you're going to use for Windows doesn't have any important files on it because it will be formatted.
1. Update Snow Leopard
2. Place the Windows cd in the Super Drive
3. Shut down the computer
4. Remove all the hard drives except the one you want Windows installed on. Keep track of the order they are in and at the end replace them in the same order.
5. Boot the computer holding down the Option key
6. Boot to the Windows cd
7. Install Windows and format the drive to NTFS
8. When Windows needs to restart during installation you'll need to hold the Option key and boot to Windows, not the Windows cd.
9. After Windows installs, place your Snow Leopard disc in the Super Drive
10. The Drivers for Windows will be installed along with a Windows version of BootCamp.
11. Go to Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update
12. Update again until it's done.
13. You'll also find a BootCamp under Control Panel, check it out.
14. Shut down the computer and replace the hard drives in their original order
14. Now if you turn on the computer it will boot to Snow Leopard, but if you hold the Option key during boot you can select Windows or Mac.

How do I install ICloud on my IMac desktop? I am running OS-X 10.6.8, which is the latest for my machine.

I have an IMac desktop -- IMac 11.2 with this software version 10.6.8
I also have an IPhone 4S and an IPad Air, and I want to link all three.
My IMac desktop was purchased before ICloud, so ICloud was not pre-installed.
