HP 1020 used to work! After OS re-install, it doesn't

Our old Mini Core Solo got sluggish, so today, I re-loaded the system software, which was Tiger (10.4). Before that, I used SuperDuper to clone the HD to an external drive as a back-up.
Once the system was re-installed, I installed combo updates from Apple, so that the Mini was back to running 10.4.11. But now, I could not use our HP LaserJet 1020, even though it worked just fine with the old install. It also works fine if I boot the Mini from the external drive that has the HD clone on it.
I have tried copying over the printer and preference files from the back-up disk, both in the main and user Libraries. Nothing seems to work---I cannot re-install the printer, even though the Mini sees and identifies it, and appears to select the correct driver. When I click "add" (the printer) in the Print & Fax window, I get a consistent error message: -9672. There is no explanation.
The HP website is useless, claiming that there is no support for Mac with this printer. Well, they may not support it, but it will work if configured correctly. But how?

After further research, I downloaded a driver package from HP for the 1022 printer. Clicking on the DMG produced a warning that the file might be corrupted, but I ran it anyway. The installer opened. It was titled for the "1020 series," and ran without incident.
I went to add the printer in Print&Fax, and found it already added. I successfully printed a few documents, and consider the problem solved. It's possible that we even used a similar work-around when the printer was new, and I forgot about it. It's a shame HP does not even bother to note this on their website.

Checking out Pdf files to Local draft Folder option no longer works after office 2013 installed.

Checking out Pdf files to Local draft Folder option no longer works after office 2013 installed.
Summary :
We are using SharePoint 2010 Ent edition and users were able to checkout Pdf files similar to local drafts folder like any other office file without any problem when they used office 2010.
i.e
Unfortunately ever since their machines upgraded with office 2013 recently , this functionality completely stopped working for PDF files. This has now become a big problem for the users when it comes to check out and replace PDF files.
All browser plugins required for this functionality (i.e SharePoint OpenDocuments Class ) are all available and active. All document libraries are configured to Checkout is required for editing files. Browser version
used at the moment is IE9 (32 bit) version with windows 7.
Can anyone please help with this issue and any help to get away with this problem is much appreciated.

Hi,
Based on your description, my understanding is that the PDF files cannot be checked out to local drafts folder after Office 2013 is installed.
Did this issue occur with Office files?
I recommend to check if the Office files can be checked out to local drafts folder with Office 2013.
And it is recommended to use Office 2010 with SharePoint 2010 for best practice.
Thanks,

HP Photosmart C6300 printer/scanner not working after Snow Leopard install

HP Photosmart C6300 printer/scanner not working after Snow Leopard install
Reinstalling etc does not work - does anyone else have the same problem or a clue as to how to fix this?

Keith,
I got a C6280 and the scanner does not work anymore. I am for 6 days in contact with HP. The last printer driver install form the apple web site does not open the image of HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.dmg because of an invalid checksum. The skipping of the validation gives and error in the install.

HT3917 My apple wireless keyboard is not working after new batteries installed

My apple wireless keyboard is not working after new batteries installed.

Do you get a steady green light to say there is a connection. If not, are the batteries the right way round. Do you have a monitor to tell the batteries strength. Is there a reading. Are the batteries good quality ones, Duracell, Energiser or Apple rechargeables.

I did an icloud backup on my old 4S with iOS 8.3 and wanted to install on my new iPhone 6 but it only has iOS 8.1.3! Can I do/use the backup after I chose "install as new iPhone"?

I did an icloud backup on my old 4S with iOS 8.3 and wanted to install on my new iPhone 6 but it only has iOS 8.1.3! Can I do/use the backup after I chose "install as new iPhone"?
Because I cannot update the software until I chose if I want to begin with a new phone setting or download a backup.
But the backup is of course not compatible with the old iOS.
So will it be possible to get the new iPhone going, then do the software update to 8.3 and then download / use the data from
my 4S icloud backup?

1. Settings > General > Software Update > Update the to 8.3
2. Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
3. Reactivate phone and follow prompts to restore iCloud (or iTunes) backup.

Microphone doesn't work after Windows clean install

I have a satellite A135-S4677 (Part# PSAD0U-0N700P) which came with 32 bit vista.
I recently did a 32 bit windows 7 clean install on a new hard drive. Everything works fine except the internal microphone which does not work. If I connect an external mic it works. Speakers work fine.
I have tried the Toshiba Software Installer but it didnt help
I have tried both drivers on toshiba's website for Realtek but it still doesnt work
driver_audio_realtek_TC40053600B.exe
driver_audio_realtek_TC40064600A.exe
Anything else I can try. Please help
Thank you.

Satellite A135-S4677
After a clean install, the order of loading first the Toshiba supplied hardware drivers and hardware utilities, then the Toshiba utilities and software is critical for success.
1st Hardware Drivers & Hardware Utilities
1) Chipset related
2) Display
3) Sound
4) All other hardware drivers & hardware utilities
2nd Toshiba Utilities & Toshiba Software
1) Toshiba Value Added Package (TVAP)
2) Toshiba Flash Card Utility (sometimes included in the TVAP)
3) All other Toshiba utilities and Toshiba software
Also, Toshiba laptops are very finicky about only using Toshiba supplied hardware drivers to work properly, and those drivers supplied by Windows Update and/or the chip makers. That's why I recommend disabling automatic Windows Updates. To do this, click 'Start - All Programs - Windows Update', on the menu at left click on 'Change settings', under 'Important updates' click on the drop down menu at right and choose 'Never check for updates (not recommended)', and click OK. Then only manually check for Windows Updates, check all available updates carefully, and never allow Windows Update to change any of your hardware drivers. Though you should still regularly check for updates.
So, after disabling automatic Windows Updates, try downloading and installing these drivers in this order, and see if it resolves your mic problem.
Intel Chipset SW Installation Utility for Windows 7 (32/64)
Intel Display Driver for Windows 7 (32)(v8.15.10.1825)
Realtek Audio Driver for Windows 7 (32/64)(v6.0.1.5904)
Please let us know what happens. Good luck.

Ipod won't work after trying to install Paid 2.0 update

I bought the 2.0 update for my 16 gig ipod touch. After trying to install the update through itunes half way through the update it gave me the message "The ipod could not be restored. An Unknown error occured (6)." I tried to do a restore on the ipod it it does the same thing. Can anyone help? Now after paying for an update I have an ipod that doesn't work at all.
I tried doing a restore using the old software on a different itunes library and get the same error message.
Any suggestions?
Thanks Larry

ok i have figured out how to fix this problem!! it is simple. make a new account on your computer. Now use the itunes on that account and just plug ur touch in and restore it. It will restore it to the software 1.1.4 . now just go back to your main account on ur computer and plug ur touch in once again and it will restore it to its original settings and sync all your songs and videos and the rest.
I followed the above instructions. Let Itunes 7.7 set itself up on the new account and downloaded the update. The first attempt didnt work but the second attempt after I rebooted the PC I logged in on the new user and booted up Itunes.
When that had finished faffing about I connected the USB cable into another USB port (above the one its just come out of if you get my drift) and it started extracting the software for Restore then it started prparing the ipod for for restore and then started uploading the software to the ipod in which it had not done it before. As I type it has just finished synching the ipod with my current Itunes library on my default windows account.
I am running the update but will have to enter my contacts details again but hey thats no big deal.
So I hope you all get yours to work.
Cheers

Magic Mouse not working after USB mouse installed

Hello,
I have been using my Magic Mouse for years then last week I inserted a USB mouse. Once I'd finished using the USB mouse I removed it and tried to use the Magic Mouse but it simply didn't work. Now - this is the odd bit. The mouse is connected and shows the batteries at 100% and the cursur moves around the screen, however, when I click (left or right) nothing happens. Oddly enough, the two finger swipe works fine.
Any ideas???

Hello DeeDub1978,
I'm having a little trouble working out which mouse does or doesn't do what, so can we start again.   It is possible there is no link between the faults on the two mice.
1.     First, to check your USB mouse.   Does it have a nice healthy light when it is plugged in?   And is there a cursor showing on the screen?    And the roller ball in the centre of the mouse ... does that look clean or slightly off colour?
2.    Then the Magic Mouse.   Although the batteries show 100%, is there a constant green light below ... or does it flicker.   With these mice there have been several reports of problems after the Yosemite upgrade and not having Yosemite I have no way of checking things out.   So if I say to you, on lower level OSs, an SMC reset would be an early move, I am not sure if it has the same effect with your OS.   If it can be done, do it.    I have to assume you have checked the settings and the pairing.
Clearly we need to get at least one mouse working and I think the USB one should be the main target.
Please answer in two separate sections in the way I have set out my questions.
Thank you for the star; I do hope I can improve and help repair at least one of them.

Touchsmart 320-1030 Touchscreen is not working after OS re-install

HDD crashed, and was replaced with new, re-installed system from factory recovery CDs, now touch screen does not work. I have re-installed the drivers to no avail. system Properties says under Pen and Touch: No Pen or Touch Input is available for this Display. It used to work before the hard drive crashed. Is there a setting in the BIOS? or something else I may have missed?
Thanks

Firefox opens when I click on a hyperlink in an e-mail in my Outlook 2003 program, but does not go to the URL in the link. It used to work before I re-installed my MS XP Pro 64 bit OS. Help!

At first, after I re-installed the OS, nothing would happen when I clicked on an e-mail hyperlink. So I went to Folder Options in Control Panel and associated Firefox with the E-mail file type. Firefox then opened when I clicked on a hyperlink in an e-mail, but just opens to the Firefox start page ("Blank page"). Firefox does not open the URL in the hyperlink. I need guidance as to how to restore this function which worked perfectly before I had to re-install the OS due to a corrupted program installer. I have run the MS Office Detect and Repair function twice--both times indicating that everything is fine--but it does not make a difference in fixing the Firefox function.
NEW: An attempt to click on the link in Security Center to go to Microsoft Update brings up an error message that reads: "The requested lookup key was not found in any active activation context." I have no idea what this means, but I suspect it is related to the lack of ability to open Firefox to a link URL.
See the uploaded screen print(JPEG) below.
UPDATE: PROBLEM SOLVED!! Searched on error message on line, solution fixed problem. THANKS ANYWAY

# Yes, if you go to accounts.firefox.org, sign out, you will now be signed out.
# Sign back in, and you will be asked to save the password you entered.
# This will save the password and autocomplete if you have this option turned on.
I am not exactly sure why the menu did not detect the password change or if it was stored incorrectly after you changed it? But after storing the correct password you can manage any duplicate passwords in the password manager.[[Password manager - Remember, delete and change saved passwords in Firefox]]

Thunderbolt is not working after Mountain Lion installed

I'm putting this discussion again because the problem didn't solve like I thought !
As you can see from the title that I have a problem already after I installed the new OS X Mountain Lion. I got my thunderbolt to Hdmi adabtor connected to an LCD TV and it was working great with snow lepord. But after the I installed Mountain Lion. it won't even recognize that there is something connected and I don't see the options in my System Prefrences> Diplays like before.
I already run software update and it's all up to date and also done a PRAM reset and nothing changed.
It only ok for a couple of min. if I restarted it and without the sound working from the LCD TV.
Please I need help here.

Well I would have hit repair. This might be stemming from a deeper issue with the installation. I've never seen that dialogue box before, and if ignoring it and booting normally worked for you then I say you did the right thing.
however
I would, go to disk utility and then select your boot drive and verify and repair disks and permissions.
if anything else WEIRD should occur, you may want to go to the recovery partition of ML (cmd+R while hearing the boot chime) and reinstalling ML. That dialogue box you mentioned is strange and should be noted. A reinstall will probably fix whatever issue comes up.

My iPad 1 has stopped working after trying to instal iOS 5. Can you help restore?

My iPad has stopped working after trying unsuccessfully to instal iOS5. All that's currently showing on the iPad screen is a white USB cable with a thick arrow pointing towards the iTunes logo (black double note within a white rimmed circle and a blue background).I cannot switch it off and have seemingly lost everything that was on it.
Please help!

That means you have to restore the device with iTunes now. So connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and restore the iPad.

Widi won't work after windows 8 install

Hi,
I have a Portege R700-S1322W and I just recently downloaded windows 8. I'm trying to install WiDi (it worked before I upgraded to windows 8). I have downloaded all the most recent drivers listed (including 15.5.6.0 Intel® PROSet/Wireless WiFi) and ran the intel driver update utility (the driver I have installed is 8.15.10.2858 and it says "An Intel device was detected but your operating system is not supported by this utility. Please visit Download Center to look for available software."). when I try to install the most recent widi driver, 3.5.41.0, it says "this platform is not compatible with intel(R) Widi or the application is in use". I was successful in installing version 3.0.13.0 of the WiDi driver but when I try to run it there's a message "Intel My WiFi Technology not enabled. Restart the computer and try again", I already checked and My WiFi is enabled. Could you please help? is there any older drivers that i could run to allow my WiDi to work or is there anything I could do with my settings? Will you be coming out with any WiDi updates for my system?
Thanks

Apparently you didn't check the Toshiba Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant. That machine is not supported for Windows 8 so Toshiba is very unlikely to issue a WiDi driver for it.

Secondary monitor does not work after OS X install

My secondary monitor does not work well after OS X install. The image on my secondary monitor is different even the screen svaer image is different and the mouse can not be seen.

Try the easy thing first - NVRAM reset:
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
If that does not work, post back with more info, including the version of Mac OS you are running. How is the external monitor connected, did it ever work, and from what OS X to what was the "OS X install" in your title?
