Hp laserjet pro 400 m401 dw - how do you get it to recognize the second print tray?

We just bought this printer a month ago, and we love it, so we bought the second tray (or drawer, however you want to think of it) because my biggest complaint everyday is reloading paper trays. WE have tried everything we can think of to get the printer to recognize the second tray and to pull paper from there when the first one is empty, but its not working. Its like we bought it for no reason. Does anyone know how to make it work? Thanks
This question was solved.
View Solution.

You need to distinguish between the following:
Printer - does the printer itself know that the tray is present? Check by printing a 'configuration' report, or by checking settings with the Embedded Web Server. If the tray is not recognised, this implies a physical problem with tray connector, etc.
Computer - does the printer driver on your system know that the additional tray is available? On a Windows system, look at the Device Settings tab on the Printer Properties dialogue, and check that the extra tray is set to Installed rather than Not installed.

How do you get Photos to recognize the "old" iPhoto Library on an external drive without it copying it to the internal drive on the computer which is low in HD space?

How do you get Photos to recognize the “old” iPhoto Library on an external drive without it copying it to the internal drive on the computer which is low in HD space?

Launch Photos while holding down the alt/options key.
This will show the Library Chooser panel. Select the library on the external drive. Photos will create a Photos Library on the same drive.
Photos may not be able to open the library, however, if your external drive has an incompatible file system. It needs to be formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled) and locally mounted, not a remotely mounted volume, as described here: Format external drives to Mac OS Extended before using with Aperture

HT5019 If my second display is not showing up on the graphics display window, yet the second display is showing a mirror image, how can I get it to recognize the second display and allow me to setup extended desktop?

I'm running 10.9.2 on a Power Mac from 2013. I am using two identical HP monitors. I have a Y adapter to connect the monitors. Which I'm guessing means the computer is only seeing one display since there is only one display output.

There are no PowerMacs from 2013. The desktop tower from 2006 on got named Mac Pro. The problem is probably the Y adapter. You need a videocard with two display ports, or two videocards to be able to make an extended desktop from one to the other. If you gave us the Y adapter make and model, we could tell if it supports screen spanning or not.

How can I get iMovie to recognize the external camera?

iMAC running OSX 10.6.8 recognizes external HD Camera hardware, but iMovie fails to recognize the device. I can copy files "manually" using Finder, but cannot import them directly into iMovie. How can I get iMovie to recognize the camera? I have already re-booted all devices and tried multiple USB ports. In all cases the OS recognizes the camera, but iMovie does not.

OK This camcorder is a fine camcorder. I have an earlier model of a similar camcorder from Panasonic. However, this newer model has one problem. It is not compatible with iMovie if you shoot at the highest quality mode, (which is 60P or 50P - which might be called 28MBPS mode). If you shoot 30P or 30i (even 60i) it will import to iMovie. Also, iMovie can handle 1280x720P60 and P50.
It will definitely work on iMovie 11. It should probably work on iMovie 09. I doubt this camera will be recognized at all on iMovie 08, but it is worth a try. To see which iMovie you have, click iMovie/About and check the version. 9.04 would be iMovie 11. (9.08 is the current version, but it will not run on OSX 10.6.8). 8.06 would be iMovie 09. 7.1.4 would be iMovie 08.
OK So how to work around this limitation?
1) If you have Final Cut Pro X ($300) or can justify buying it, it will import 60P and 50P from this camera. However, if this seems a little pricey to you, keep reading.
2) If you set your camera to record in 1080P30 and shoot a short clip, then iMovie should see the camera. Then I would suggest using iMovie import screen to create a CAMERA ARCHIVE of your camera. This will copy to your Mac the entire contents of the video files on your camera. You will need them later. I am assuming you have some valuable footage on the camera that you would like to have.
3) Going forward, the simplest thing is to shoot in 1920x1080P30 and use iMovie normally. The biggest advantage of P60 or P50 is when you need really high quality slow motion effects. In other words, after you edit your movie, everything is converted to P30 or P25 anyway.
4) If you want to retrieve the 1080P50 or 1080P60 clips that you have shot, then there are a couple of apps you can buy to convert them to a form that iMovie can edit. Two such apps are ClipWrap and Voltaic HD. There are also various free apps, but I cannot vouch for them. Do a search on google and you may find some that work.

How do you get multiple screens on the iPad with iOS 5.1.1?

How do you get multiple screens on the iPad with iOS 5.1.1? We just upgraded to iOS 5.1.1, and we see no way to be able to open multiple screens at once. Before, there was a small button in the upper portion of any window. That button would take you from a particular window to the place where multiple windows are open at once. Does it do it differently? Is there a special setting button that we have missed? Thanks!
One more thing: We are only talking about Safari.

Guitaristica-
I don't think I've seen a way to have separate Safari screens visible at the same time. The small thumbnails were deleted in one of the iOS updates, and replaced with a multiple "Tab" system.
You can open an additional screen in a new "tab" by pressing and holding on a link until a new menu comes up.

In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store

In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store. It would appear that I can only get Genius recommendations from my own library. This was easy in iTunes 10 and enabled me to find lots of good artists I had never heard of.

I have this same question and all I have found on it is this,
http://ipod.about.com/od/advanceditunesuse/ss/genius_store.htm
Basically it seams they got rid of the whole side bar concept of things to make it all more streamline, understandable but I know atleast for myself that genius sugestion for any song is how I found new artists and songs I never knew existed.
If you go to the Album the go to "In the Store" it will give you a recomendation for that album... not exaclty what you might be looking for but atleast its something, if anyone else has a way to get genius sugestions for individual songs I am all ears and would love to hear about it.

All my icons are enlarged, how do you get them back to the regular size so you can see them all and you have the slide bar to get into it?

If the library file is on the external drive, hold <SHIFT> while launching iTunes. When it prompts to select a library file or create a new one, point it to the location of the library file.
If the library file was on the internal harddrive, easiest solution is to restore it from the backup. If no backup exists, use File > Add Folder to library. Also under Edit > Preferences > Advanced, change the library location unless you want iTunes to move the media to the internal drive.

HT1473 my itunes library isn't playing all of my music how do i get it to recognize the files that are missing?

My computer crashed and I backed up the computer before replacing the hard drive. Once the hard drive was replaced, I tried to go back and restore my programs, however not all of my music is coming over properly. How do I get Itunes to recognize the music? It is all in the same place.

Press Ctrl-B to enable the menu bar, you'll then have File > Add Folder to Library... available. You can also copy existing media to your iTunes library by copying it to the Automatically Add to iTunes folder within iTunes' folder hierarchy.
To recover playlists, etc. you need to retrieve the iTunes database (iTunes Libarary.itl) from your old computer - a complete backup of an iTunes library includes this as well as your media files. Ideally, you should have everything under a common folder - C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes if you're using the default location, X:\iTunes (where "X" is any drive letter) if you have the library on another drive. The ideal structure is like this:
so that you can create a backup of the iTunes folder and everything you need - either to move your library to another computer, or to create/maintain a regular backup against PC/disc failures - is in one place.
If you did backup and restore your iTunes Library.itl file via Carbonite, or can access and copy it from your old PC, then make sure its in the correct location with respect to your media files, hold down SHIFT when you start iTunes, and when you get this prompt:
click on Choose Library..., navigate to the folder containing your library, select the iTunes Library.itl file (which may just show as "iTunes Library" if Windows is set to not show file extensions) and click Open.

My iPhone keeps saying No SIM. How can I get it to recognize the SIM card?

TRy removing the sim card wipe it clean then insert it again. Your sim card tray might be dusty. Another option is turning your airplane mode on and off.
btw, is your network signal strong in the area where you are currently? Ask ATT if there is any area outage

Time Machine does not recognize my iMac backup. Reports: not enough space; can't back up. How do I get it to recognize the backup?

Time Machine does not recognize my 430 GB iMac backup on 1 terabyte Time Capsule. Reports: not enough space; can’t back up. How do I get it to recognize the old backup and continue backups?

Thanks for the Time Machine Troubleshooting link. Apparently things have changed since 10.7.0. Backups.backupdb doesn’t exist. Path now is: Time Capsule/Data/Daru’s iMac.sparsebundle. So I did Terminal (I usually avoid Terminal) using the instruction in B6. It does not appear to be working. It went through looking for backup, preparing backup, and is now stopping backup, and the TMBackup has disappeared from the sidebar.
Well, just now Time Machine progressed to preparing backup again; the Tiime Machine Backups appeared in sidebar, and with it Backups.backupdb/Daru’s iMac/2012-04-21-112939.inProgress. So it does exist... I’ll let it run, see what happens... But that is a strange date. Today is 28.
I’ll let you know the outcome.
Oops. Just ended! Real time report: “Backup too large for disk...“ So it is not recognizing the old backup. I’ll look at those instructions again, see if I can do the Terminal thing with the backup running. I doubt I can damage anything except the existing baackup which I'll lose anywy if I can’t achieve recognition.

How do you get Firefox to remember the response sent to remember password for a site and then not ask the same question over and over?

How do you get Firefox to remember the response sent to remember password for a web site and not ask over and over? The desktop version has a dialog box that you can check that says "Don't ask me this again". The mobile version doesn't. A real pain!
Thankx

You can switch off or uncheck the remember password in your settings :-)
