How to install Deskjet 3055a, new router but unsupported operating system on Macbook

Hi,<br><br>Please go easy with me, I really know very little about all this !<br>We have a Deskjet 3055A printer which has been linked wirelessly to my iPad and a MacBook without a problem until now.<br>We have installed a new router. I am thinking that we have to amend our network in some way ?<br>I have tried to run the HP cd on the MacBook to amend it, but all I get is the message as follows...<br>"Unsupported operating system. The installer is not compatible with the version of the operating system on your computer. It is compatible only with 10.6 and below." <br>The MacBook is running OS X version 10.9.5<br>Any help greatly appreciated - thank you ! ( Please keep it simple !! )<br>We<br><br>

Welcome to the community @Teekayk 
I understand you are trying to install your Deskjet 3055A on your Mac, running Mavericks. The installation CD may be compatible up to 10.6, and that could be why you are seeing the error message.
This link should help you. It will show you how to install the printer on your Mac. There is no full driver and software available for the Deskjet 3055A on Mavericks, which basically means you will need to review your other options to scan on your Mac through Apple Updates, which is all included in the guide.

  • How to install English language apps with different language operating system?

    Dear Expert,
    I have just purchased Adobe CC and downloaded the CC installer.
    I cannot install Illustrator in English, because it automatically installs it in Hungarian (that is the language of Windows 7).
    I have tried to set
    Preferences / Apps / Settings / App Language to International English and reinstalled and updated Illustrator, but
    it is still in Hungarian.
    Could you please help me how to uninstall and reinstall it in English, please?
    Thank you,,

    Hi Jeff,
    Thanks for your reply. I have an active membership - just managed to solve the problem with the help of Adobe customer support.
    Basically, I had to uninstall Illustrator and the Creative Cloud installer, then deleted all Adobe folders and reinstalled the software.
    Before downloading anything, I had to set up the 'Preferences/Apps/App Language' to International English, because it automatically switched to the language of the operating system.

    We have had to change to a new router but the Macbook Pro still reverts to the old one. How can we lose this and make the new router the default?

    Go to "Network" under system preferences and choose "advanced"
    On the Wi-Fi tab you can sort the sequence of the preferred connections.
    Then just move your new router to the top of the list.

    I deinstalled photoshop elements 11 off my old computer and installing on my new computer but it keeps sayig invalid serial number. I am using the same serial number I was given for the original installed and it worked fine.

    Hello shiv99,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you have used Home Sharing to play the music from one computer on another, but now you would like to only use the new computer. It sounds as though you have set up the content to share between computers, but have not actually I’m ported the media from the old computer to the new one. I would suggest following the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article to import you music from the old computer to the new one. After that process is complete, you can turn off Home Sharing if you would like and the content will be in the iTunes library on your new computer.

    This is not a photography question.  It is an application specific question,  Please post in the Photoshop forum.

  • How to install Windows XP in parallel with Mac OS on a Macbook?

    Can anyone tell me how to install Windows XP in parallel with Mac OS on a Macbook?
    If I divide the hard drive into 2 patritions and install Win XP & Mac OS on each patrition, is it ok?

    I don't think he meant "Parallels", I think he just meant "parallel", with a little 'p'.
    There are three options for running Windows software on an Intel-based Mac:
    Virtualization: you can install software such as Parallels or VMWare (along with a licensed copy of Windows) which will emulate the environment necessary to run Windows software. Performance is significantly degraded, but you can work with both Windows and Mac software simultaneously.
    Dual boot: You can use Apple's Bootcamp to partition your drive and create a CD of Windows drivers for your devices, so that you can then install Windows on one partition of your drive. Your Windows software will run just as it does on any other Windows PC, but you have to reboot to switch between Windows and OS X.
    Crossover: Crossover is a product that allows you to run Windows programs in OS X without installing Windows. Not all Windows software will work with Crossover though.

    You say that nothing happens, yet you are able to export to youtube. Please describe in detail what you are trying.
    What destinations do you see? How exactly are you trying to export?
    Also: Cmd-E will only work if you set a default destination.
