HP 1020 plus laser printer support on mac os/x snow leopard.

I have a HP 1020 plus printer and manufacturer refuses to provide drives for mac os/x. There is a free version of a driver by third party but it does not work well and there are some issues with cleanup of old files which are getting in the way of installing it on my mac.
How do I get this to work?
thanks
-kamal

I found these drivers on the HP site for Lion 10.7

Wiki Server support on Mac Mini with Snow Leopard?

Hi
I am considering buying Mac Mini with Snow Leopard server. Before that, I want to know about wiki server 2 capabilities. Wiki Server 2 page says following:
"Mac OS X Server makes it easy for groups to collaborate and communicate through their own wiki-powered intranet website complete with group calendar, blog, and mailing list"
I am planning to setup wiki server for a small group of users over Internet (and not intranet) to exchange information and so it should look something like wiki.mydomain.com with login capabilities for user(and again, this is over internet).
My Question: Can wiki server 2 work with web server to support above (or similar) setup?
If not, what can be done to support above setup?
Response appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

Jason, what is your source of information that this is a supported configuration?
I work at Apple. Thats why I have the !http://discussions.apple.com/images/status/apple_employee-16x16.gif! logo below my username.
The new Mac mini comes in three different configurations, two of those have the standard version of Snow Leopard.
There is an article that addresses issues similar to this here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2186, but switching from Snow Leopard Server to Snow Leopard is not like trying to install Tiger when the Mac mini came with Snow Leopard.
You can also verify this by contacting an Apple specialist at: 1-800-MY-APPLE or call U.S. iPod and Mac technical support at: 1-800-APL-CARE (1-800-275-2273).

Laser Printer with Scanning the works with Snow Leopard

Buying a new MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard, and trying to find a B&W laser printer three-in-one (with faxing if possible) and scanning with optical character recognition for $300 or less. I know there were problems with Twain drivers and scanning with Mac OS in the past and Read Iris, but maybe these problems have been fixed. Any recommendations or articles I can be referred to? I see a lot of posts from people regarding printers they are not happy with or have trouble with wireless printing, so I know which ones not to buy.

Check Macworld for reviews.

Is the Dell 2155 MFP laser printer compatible with MAC os x 10.9.2?

Is the Dell 2155 MFP laser printer compatible with MAC os x 10.9.2?

emscape,
you can find Apple’s list of supported printers here. Have you looked on Dell’s Web site, to see if they claim Mavericks compatibility with that particular printer?

So, I've taken my panasonic printer back to the shop and exchenged it for a Canon MF-4430. Alas... the generic drivers do not make it print. Is it possible to get drivers to make this canon printer work with my lovely Mac Book Pro Snow Leopard, 6.8?

I could not find a MF-4430 at the Canon site. Are you sure the model is correct? They have a MF4450. The Mac drivers are here:

If you are sure you have a MF4430, look around the canon site for the drivers.

I am unable to sync my iPhone4 iCal to my Mac iCal. Snow Leopard does not support the Cloud. What do I do?

I am unable to sync my iPhone4S iCal to my Mac iCal. Snow Leopard is my OS and it does not support the cloud. What do I do?

To makeuse of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mountain Lion, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
To purchase it you will have to ring Apple at the number given at the bottom left of this page.
The requirements for Mountain Lion are listed here:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

Why cant i install Mac os x snow leopard on my Imac early 2011

I have mac OS x mountain lion and I'm trying to downgrade to snow leopard by making a partition and trying to boot the install dvd that I just got but when I try to boot the install dvd by holding down (c) or doing it in the system preferences > start up disk the apple logo just appears can someone help

There is no Early 2011 iMac. There are Mids and Late. That's it. Mids came with 10.6.6 or 10.6.7. The Late requires 10.7. It's a convoluted process for the Mids, but you can install Snow Leopard on them.
How To Run Snow Leopard On A New Mac
This does not apply to new Mac Minis or MacBook Airs. When newer models are introduced that also require Lion for hardware support, the techniques described below will no longer work with the possible exception of using Parallels 7.
What has to be done:
1. Create a new partition on the hard drive.
2. Get a clone of a 10.6.8 Snow Leopard system. Put the cloned Snow Leopard
        system onto the new partition.
Step One: Create a new partition on the hard drive
To resize the drive and create a new partition do the following:
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
               COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart
               the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until
               the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the
               downward pointing arrow button.
          After the main menu appears select Disk Utility and click on the Continue button. Select the hard drive's main entry then click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
2. You should see the graphical sizing window showing the existing partitions. A portion may appear as a blue rectangle representing the used space on a partition.
3.           In the lower right corner of the sizing rectangle for each partition is a resizing gadget. Select it with the mouse and move the bottom of the rectangle upwards until you have reduced the existing partition enough to create the desired new volume's size. The space below the resized partition will appear gray. Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed. (Note: You can only make a partition smaller in order to create new free space.)
4.           Click on the [+] button below the sizing window to add a new partition in the gray space you freed up. Give the new volume a name, if you wish, then click on the Apply button. Wait until the process has completed.
You should now have a new volume on the drive.
It would be wise to have a backup of your current system as resizing is not necessarily free of risk for data loss. Your drive must have sufficient contiguous free space for this process to work.
Step Two: Obtain a clone of a Snow Leopard system:
You will need access to a Mac already running Snow Leopard. You will need a 16 GB USB flash drive or an external hard drive to which you can clone the Snow Leopard system from the Mac that has Snow Leopard installed. Alternatives are:
Option One:
Install a new Snow Leopard system onto a USB flash drive. Boot the Mac used for installing with the USB flash drive. Update the flash drive system to 10.6.8 using the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard. Verify that you can boot the Mac with the USB flash drive.
Take the USB flash drive to your new Mac and try booting from it. If it works then clone the system from the flash drive to the newly made partition:
          Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Check the box labeled Erase destination.
5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination
      entry field.
6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the new partition on the internal drive. Source means the USB
flash drive.
Option Two:
If you have a large enough external drive you can erase and use, then it would be easier to just clone the entire Snow Leopard system from the source Mac computer to the external drive.
          Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Check the box labeled Erase destination.
5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination
      entry field.
6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external drive. Source means the Snow Leopard Mac's
internal drive.
After cloning verify that it will boot the source Mac. If so then take the external drive to your new Mac boot with it. If all is well then restore the clone to the new partition on your new Mac:
          Restore the clone using Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Check the box labeled Erase destination.
5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination
      entry field.
6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the new partition on the internal drive. Source means the external drive.
You will need a retail copy of Snow Leopard. If you need to purchase Snow Leopard contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The price is $29.00 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.

Is MAC OS X v10.6.8 same as MAC OS X Snow Leopard. Since i want to download MAC OS X LION can it be downloaded on my mac which has MAC OS X v10.6.8 ??

Yes, assuming you can run Lion, & can deal with no more Save or Save As... functions...
Lion/101.7 System requirements
    •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
    •    At least 2GB of memory, (I say 4GB)
    •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
    •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, (I say 40GB at least)
Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

Problem in Formatting using Mac OS X Snow Leopard DVD (FULL)

Hi all
I've just bought a Mac OS X Snow Leopard DVD -Full- (not upgrade)
When I boot from the installation DVD nd then
after few minutes the screen turns to black nd I can't do anything!! (MacBook Pro 2009)
I tried using my iMac nd the installation DVD works smooth nd fine!
I don't know why MBP is not processing the installation steps nd the screen suddenly turns to black!
Waiting ...
Thanks

Make sure your MacBook pro is not too new for the disk in question.
Find the serial number for the MacBook Pro, and look at the three characters labelled ABC below, and tell us the numbers they are represented by:
xxABCxxxx
Don't give us the full serial number. The x can be any letter or number.
Then tell us the 10.6 version labelled in fine print on the DVD.
That will tell us if the Mac is too new for your Snow Leopard Disc, and you need to use the original MacBook Pro discs that came with your Mac to install 10.6.

ORIGINAL Mac OS X Snow Leopard into 2 imacs?

Can I install the same original dvd mac os x snow leopard in 2 imacs? Both of them has a mac os x 10.5.8.

There are two answers to that question:
1. Can both Macs run Snow Leopard?

2. Unless you have the family set, your install DVD is only licensed for ONE Mac.

Changes in DNS resolution in Mac OS X Snow Leopard

Disclaimer: Apple does not necessarily endorse any suggestions, solutions, or third-party software products that may be mentioned in the topic below. Apple encourages you to first seek a solution at Apple Support. The following links are provided as is, with no guarantee of the effectiveness or reliability of the information. Apple does not guarantee that these links will be maintained or functional at any given time. Use the information below at your own discretion.
There have been two major changes in DNS resolution in Mac OS X Snow Leopard as compared to Mac OS X Leopard and previous releases, and this tip is intended to explain them.
1) User-specified DNS servers, if any, are now used to the exclusion of all others
DNS server addresses may be manually-specified by users via the Networking preference pane by selecting the active interface (e.g. AirPort, Ethernet, etc.), the clicking the "Advanced…" button in the lower right hand corner of the window, and selecting the "DNS" tab.
DNS server addresses may also be provided by a DHCP server.
In Mac OS X Snow Leopard, if any DNS servers are manually specified, they will be the only DNS servers consulted; any DNS servers specified via DHCP will be ignored
This differs from Mac OS X Leopard and previous releases of Mac OS X, as in those releases, if DNS servers were specified manually as well as provided via DHCP, the manually-specified server(s) would be queried first, and if those requests failed, requests would then be sent to any DNS server(s) specified via DHCP.
This means that in Mac OS X Snow Leopard, if queries to manually-specified DNS servers fail, the request will be considered to have failed and no DHCP-specified DNS server will ever be queried.
Users may encounter this because at some point a DNS server (which is no longer functioning or reachable) was manually set in a work or other environment and they had forgotten about it since the previous behavior was for failed requests to "fall through" to DHCP-specified servers.
Because of the change in behavior, those same systems will fail to resolve any DNS requests in Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
2) mDNSResponder does not honor DNS server ordering
While not explicitly documented, in Mac OS X versions earlier than Snow Leopard, DNS servers, whether specified manually or via DHCP, were queried in the order they were provided. For manual specification, this means in the order shown in the appropriate Network preferences pane tab, and for DHCP users in the order specified by the DHCP server.
This is no longer true in Mac OS X Snow Leopard; instead mDNSResponder now seems to occasionally change the order in which it queries DNS servers from that in which they were specified.
This has caused some users issues when DNS servers are specified in a specific sequence.
For example, say your network has two DNS servers, a main server at address 192.168.100.1, and a secondary server at 192.168.100.2, which is normally only to be used if the primary DNS server fails as it is slower and/or has a slower link to the Internet.
If they were specified in that order, past versions of Mac OS X would query them in that order, and unless a failure occurred contacting the primary server, the second server specified would never be contacted.
In Mac OS X Snow Leopard, under various conditions mDNSResponder will instead decide to route all DNS queries to the second DNS server specified, perhaps as a method of routing DNS queries in a round-robin fashion.
Nevertheless, this behavior is unexpected to most users, and may cause issues if the previous behavior was expected.
The only workaround is to realize that Mac OS X Snow Leopard treats all specified DNS servers as being equally capable and to specify DNS servers, either manually or via DHCP, accordingly.

How can I install Mac OS X Snow Leopard on Mac OS X Tiger?

Hello. Can someone tell me how I can install Mac OS X Snow Leopard on Mac OS X Tiger? I have the disk, but when I open the installer, I get a message saying that Snow Leopard could not be installed on my computer and it could only be installed on a Intel-Based Mac. This is a PowerPC Mac, so that makes sense.
So, I'm trying to ask how to make my Mac an Intel-Based Mac so I could install Snow Leopard. Or if I can't do that, I need to know how to install Snow Leopard some other way. Please help.

Just an FYI, the Mac App Store was introduced with Mac OS X 10.6.6. However the rest of what you say is accurate.
10.6.8 is required if you want to upgrade certain Macs beyond 10.7.5 without having to reformat the drive you are installing the operating system on and without having to install some version of 10.7 first.
One can actually install 10.7 or later if you maintain an original copy of the full installer of the operating system in question for your personal use without having to have the prerequisite operating system installed, if the hardware supported it. But that's a discussion for another forum.
For HFTaylor,
Consider buying a used or refurbished Mac with an Intel CPU depending on your needs. Read this tip about the migration of data from PowerPC to Intel before proceeding:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2295
and see this tip about used and refurbished Macs*:

HT2513 What version of iCal do I need to use with Mac OS X Snow Leopard? I upgraded to OS X 10.6.3 and my iCal 3.0.8 won't open.

I just upgraded to Mac OS X Snow Leopard version 10.6.3 and now my iCal 3.0.8 won't open at all. What version do I need to or should I upgrade to and where do I find it?

The version installed with Snow Leopard since iCal is part of OS X. If you are trying to use iCal from a different drive and version of OS X, then it won't work. If the installed version of iCal in Snow Leopard is the wrong version, then there was a problem. Delete the wrong version then reinstall Snow Leopard:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.
