HI @LAB8080,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you are trying to scan to an e-mail with your HP 2540 to your Mac. I am happy to help you with your scanning!
I am not sure which Mac you are using so here are the Mac How to Scan guides:
Scanning with the Full Feature HP Software in OS X v10.10 Yosemite.
Scan from OS X v10.9 Mavericks With the Full Feature HP Software for HP Multifunction Printers.
Scan from OS X v10.8 Mountain Lion With the Full Feature HP Software for HP Multifunction Printers.
Scan from OS X v10.7 Lion With the Full Feature HP Software for HP Multifunction Printers.
How to Scan: Mac OS X v10.6. 
If you don't know which version of Mac you have, please see this guide. OS X: Finding your OS version and build information.
I believe this information will answer your questions. If not, please let me know if you have any further concerns!

    The scan cannot be performed because another program has control of the HP imaging device. Try the following steps. After each step, try scanning again.
    - Restart the program.
    - Close all programs that may be using the device.

  • I clicked on a link from an email that may be spam/phishing.  How can I scan my mac book pro for any viruses?

    I clicked on a link in an email that may be spam/phishing.  How can I scan my mac book pro for viruses?

    You can just download the free ClamXav and scan your entire drive - but as there are no known viruses for OS X (although there is malware - see Thomas Reed's excellent Mac Malware Guide) it's very unlikely that you have a virus.
    The best source against malware is OS X itself and common sense. Don't click on links in suspicious emails and be careful of anything that wants to install something on your computer that is not from a reputable source.

  • How can I turn my Mac using iTunes into an alarm clock?

    Here's my question: How can I turn my Mac, using iTunes, into an alarm clock?
    I want to be able to put my Mac to sleep but have it set up so that when it wakes up at the predetermined time iTunes will open and start playing the music I've selected....
    A "musical alarm clock"...
    A friend suggested using the Energy Saver option in Sys. Preferences to wake the computer at the right time. He said that then I could use iCal to start iTunes. I would then have to use an Apple Script to get iTunes to play the song I want.
    But is there a SIMPLER way to do this? Are there any programs out there that do this already??
    Thanks for any help....

    I recently got a copy of AlarmClock Pro from MacWorld UK. It is shareware, I think it is (USD?)19. I haven't had a chance to try it out much, but it does look quite good. I have an older version. The latest version looks even better.
    I'm sure there's plenty of freeware apps out there. You might also want to try looking here for an applescript here Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes

    How do i upgrade a mac using 10.5.8 to Lion?

    No. You cannot download Snow Leopard. You can only download an updater for Snow Leopard after it's been installed. You need to purchase the DVD to make that first installation of Snow Leopard.

  • Deskjet 2540 all in one printer - does the scanning work with Mac OS Yosemite 10.10.1 ?

    I was trying to scan a document using this new printer and my Mac OS Yosemite 10.10.1 and I cannot even find the page that allows me to scan since now it is all through the computer.  Is this printer compatible with this operating system? and if so, what can I do to see the page where the file actually shows up to scan?
    thanks,

  • How do I download PDF files using Safari.  All I get is a black screen.

    How do I download PDF files using Safari.  All I get is a black screen.

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • How can I find duplicate photos without going through all 5000  one at a time?

    How can I find duplicate photos withough going through all 5000 one by one?  I have numerous duplications and used to be able to click on Edit and Find Duplicates and could clean up all the duplicates easily.  Now that option is gone.  I still have lots to delete.

    I do backup everything using Carbonite.Please don't tell me it is bad, too :-)  Also, especially with photo files, I do have other backups of those I am concerned about. Probably not the best in the world, but a log better than many people who I know about.
    Again, I really have not seen any problems with MacKeeper.  I imagine that if people do not read and follow instructions, they could have problems. For example, it is possible to scan all your files and see them in order of size. If you start deleting things, without knowing what you're deleting, you could cause trouble. Even when the computer scans for so-called junk files, you can look at them and decide for yourself if they are truly junk. I've never seen any that were not.
    So, I will look at the complaints anyway to see them. I am open to change, although I hope I do not need to drop Mackeeper as it does things like keeping tracking of applications updates that I need. Please note that I definitely am not a MacKeeper employee or anything close. Just using it and happy with the the results.
    I did download the recommend file for finding photo dupes and ran it.  There were very few duplicates, in any case, As I said before, the MacKeeper dupe finder was very slow when I ran it over ALL my files. That was a year ago and it did find many non-text dupes.

  • Can I use a Sony all-in-one PC/TV as a second display for the G5?

    I'm trying to build a pro music system out of my G5, which means that it should only have music software on it. I have an aluminum 20" display hooked up to my Radeon x800T video card, which has one DVI and one ADC jack on it. A pro music rig needs two 20" displays, at least, to display all the mixers, processors, instruments, etc. I have to use a PC for my financial stuff and need a new one. The new Sony Vaio VGC-VA 11G is their version of the i-Mac G5, it's all-in-one plus it is a 20" LCD TV with S-video and composite video in, not VGA in. If I get an ADC-to-VGA adaptor and hook that up to a VGA-to-S/video & composite adapter (all on ebay!), can I plug the output of the G5 to one of the video ins on the Sony Vaio and then use the Sony Vaio's TV as the second display (not simply mirroring the Apple display)? I guess it would be the same as using an LCD TV as a second, non-mirroring display. If it works, it's going to be cool!

    By reading the user's manual, it appears that is possible. Download the User Manual from this link:

    With the computer off, turn on the monitor, button farthest to the right.
    Next button to the left of the on/off button, controls the input. Cycle it until you see HDMI in.
    I don't have B520, but I have an A310 and it works the same.  I hope that works for you.
    Good luck!

  • Use of HP All-in-one C6280

    Hey @all
    I have a MacBook Air and I want to use my HP All-in-one C6280. I downloaded a software from the HP homepage, but It doesn't work. If someone have a software please help me.
    Thanks!! Stefanie

    There doesn't seem to be any software for your OS on the HP site.  It looks like everything you can get for the printer installs through Apple Software Updates (ASU).  All you need to do to get the printer installed can be found in the document below.  Let me know what happens.

  • Trying to scan from hp officejet 150 mobile all in one to my computer

    trying to scan from hp officejet 150 mobile all in one to my computer. downloaded the full feature for my printer off hp website. push scan on printer and will not find program on my computer to scan to. help!!!

    Hi @Bryan1968,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that you are trying to scan with your HP Officejet 150 mobile to your Windows 7 computer. I am happy to help you with your scanning!
    First, I would recommend to make sure you have downloaded, and installed the full feature software and drivers, from this website, HP Officejet Full Feature Software and Driver. It is possble, you might have accidentally installed the basic driver instead.
    Then according to your printer's user guide, the scanning functionality will only with a USB cable connection from the printer to the computer. Please see page 43 of your printer's User Guide.  
    I would also visit this guide, How to Scan: Windows 7, as it will give you some alternate methods of scanning, even without HP software.
    Hope this information is helpful, and have a great day!
