HP Officejet 6700 Premium suddenly does not connect to my Macbook Pro anymore

Yes, resetting the system and adding the printer allows me to print. Unfortunately, I have to do that on a regular basis. I don't understand why it will not stay connected. I am not familiar with Airport Extreme.

Hey @Cjean ,
I was wondering how things with the printer are and your MacBook Pro. Sometimes if you plug the power adapter directly into a functioning wall outlet. With it being an Airport extreme, make sure you have not connected the Printer to the Guest network.
Do not plug it into a power strip, surge protector, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue.
You could try this: Repair Disk Permissions
On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left, by default this is Macintosh HD.
Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
Once the repair is complete, restart the computer.
Please let me know how this works out.
Thanks.

Samsung Omnia Mobile Phone does not connect to my MacBook Pro

Hi guys. I am after some advice please.
My Mac Book Pro is currently not allowing me to browse my Samsung Omnia phone by bluetooth.
It has worked previously however, it is not now. It recognises that the phone is there but when it comes to connecting it says "The connection failed or closed" - Would you like to attempt to reconnect or close this window?
I do not know how to get this to work and I cannot use the USB transfer wire as it is not compatible with Apple Macs.
I have some photos and files I would like to transfer over however, I cannot do so.
Any help much appreciated please.

Hi Elizaanne,
I understand you are having issues with HP Officejet 6700 Premium not connect to your Macbook Pro.
Sometimes the router needs to be cycled. I would unplug the router, turn off printer, turn off computer.
Turn back on router wait 5 min and turn on printer and computer.
Check on the printer if Wifi is SOLID.
From System Preferences, open Print and Fax or Print and Scan pane. If you see the printer listed
Click remove printer- button. It will ask for confirmation of delete printer.
Click the Add or + button, select the printer Bonjour Multifunction not Fax. Adding that should update the drivers.
If the Printer Wifi is not solid you will have to set it up again.
Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
Touch the Right Arrow to display the second navigation screen.
Touch Setup , and then touch Network .
Touch Wireless Setup Wizard
Then add it to you Mac 10.7.
I hope this helps.
Please feel free to contact me if you require further assistance.

TS1381 My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226). I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, test all other keys with keyboard view (all others work) - HELP!!

My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).
I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, & tested all other keys with "keyboard viewer" (all other keys work except for the arrow).
In addition, I have gone thru all the recommended checks with universal access and have booted from snow leopard dvd and the left arrow still does not work.
I have tried using the left arrow key in all of applications I use such as: excel, ms word, address book, calendar, iphoto, terminal, & highlighting an icon and using the arrows to move to another selected icon.
Here is the kicker! In addition, I purchased a logitech solar bluetooth keyboard and the arrows work fine with my ipad but do not work when paired with the macbook pro. All other keys work fine on the macbook pro using the bluetooth keyboard.
I believe this says that the problem is not in my macbook pro keyboard. So where can it be?
Can anyone think of any other rabbit holes I can search?
thanks and regards

I would also like to add that I've reverted the two cd drive and hard drive mods I did and the laptop is back to factory hardware and there is 0 corrosion or mold visible.

Does 'Network Connect' work with MacBook Pro?

My safari unexpectedly quits when attempting to log into my company's VPN.
- I log into our VPN website and the connection begins to initialize
- with my MacBook, Safari (2.0.3) unexpectedly quits
- with my PowerBook, 'Network Connect' automatically starts and the VPN connection completes without any problem
Does 'Network Connect' work with MacBook Pro? Any ideas?

Resolved. MacBook Pro was having trouble dowloading the 'Network Connect' application when I logged into my VPN client for the first time. I copied it from my PowerBook G4 over to the appropriate folder and it now works perfectly.

I have a new HP Photosmart Premium that does not connect to our ATT router we use for 2

We just purchased a new HP Photosmart Premium to work on our ATT wireless router with two laptops. It does not connect to our ATT wireless network with the error "No filtering" FAIL indications. Why?

There could be several reasons for this.
Let's try this: cycle power on the router, let it restart a couple of minutes then try it again.
If that does not work, we may need to adjust some settings in the router. ISP supplied routers are not the best.....

Airplay does not connect with pioneer vsx-1121 anymore

After latest iTunes update airplay function does not connect with my pioneer vsx 1121 receiver anymore. I can see the reciver in the list when I click the airplay button but it does not connect and music keeps playing trough the laptop speakers. I am running win 7 and everything worked fine before the latest iTunes update.
Any ideas what is preventing the proper connection?

I am having the same problem. From my Ipad the pioneer vsx-1021K is visible. It connects, sound begins then stops after 2-3 seconds. This began in the last month. Infuriating. I can stream from my android to the device using double twist. I can stream to other devices like apple tv and Android apps like "hifispeaker" (a Airplay receiver for android).
What changed? It seems like there is something in the most recent Ipad updates? Some interfering application?
the Ipad is using IOS 6.1.3

Time Capsule 2TB not backing up my MacBook Pro anymore

I'm having a bit of a problem with my Time Capsule.
I use this Time Capsule to backup my MacBook Pro only. So far it was working and backing up without a problem since September 1, 2010.
I didn't use my MacBook Pro on a daily basis as usual, just a few minutes just to check email and then power down, for two weeks, so no backup was taken and if during that time if I was using it and the backup started I cancel it.
Now three days ago, I decided it was time to let the backup finish as usual, but now I got an error message that my time machine disc wasn't available so the backup was delayed.
I tough that this was caused by a low connectivity or a WIFI interference, so I decided to take it and connect it directly to the Time Capsule via Ethernet.
I started a backup, but after a few MB copied, the backup seems to stall, nothing gets copied and I get the SBBOD. So I forced the control panel to close and started again, same result.
Rebooted the computer, try again, copied a little more and then stops, the blinking light stops and now the computer freezes.
I deactivated Time Machine, re activate same result.
Found some links on the net, try the suggestions, no luck.
So I decided to erase my Time Machine, and nothing changed, still stops sometimes after a few MB, other times after 1Go of Data, the max I got was 2,5Go, then the system freezes, I have to hard boot my mac.
I decided to try with an external HD connected to my MacBook Pro via FireWire 400 and it did a complete backup of my mac (100GB) without a problem and no frozen mac.
I tried again on the hard drive on the Time Capsule, and again the mac froze and I got just 2GO of data to be backed up.
This is not working either via Wi-Fi or Wired connection. The result is the same, frozen Mac after some data is backed up.
Before I erased the Time Machine drive, I mounted the .sparcebundle drive and did a repair and no error were detected.
Since my Time Capsule is no longer under warranty, I open it, and connected the drive to my Mac Pro via USB SATA adapter and started a drive diagnose with disk utility, an error were detected with the drive and I applied the repair. Formatted the drive and put it back into the Time Capsule.
Tried again to do a full backup of my MacBook Pro but same result, the computer froze, no backup was done.
I started a new backup of my Mac Pro into the Time Capsule and via Ethernet and so far still backing up (a lot of data 300GB and still going) without any problem or a hang or frozen computer. I decided not to stop this backup not to corrupt anything on my Mac Pro.
I don't know what to do, I know for sure that it is not the Time Capsule, it's something on the MacBook Pro but what? A bad configuration, somewhere on my MacBook Pro.
I'm new into Macs and my knowledge of debugging mac is very small. I don't know what to look for and where. And certainly I don't want to erase my MacBook Pro Hard Drive or clean install Snow Leopard.
Does anybody have a clue of what this may be.
What should I do to clean any reference on my MacBook Pro to this time capsule and start all over again? I don't know what to do.
Thank you for your help.

I think I found the culprit!!! Yes I know it's basic to check, but once you're headed in a direction you forgot about all the rest. We're all humans after all.
But maybe my error will help other not to repeat or made the same mistake I did.
I deactivated Sophos Anti-Virus and I added my Time Capsule to the Exclusion List.
So far I passed the 2.5GB of data copied that always made my mac freeze.
Going to 13.50GB and still going, I'll check post an update if everything completes in a normal way.
Thanks to Jolly Giant and Pondini for their help.
Check next post for updates.

OK - my 4s all of a sudden does not connect to wifi - i've noticed chatter out there on this happening to a lot of other people. Apple seems not to want to acknowledge this as a problem. What's up Apple? Should be better than that!

If this is a widespread problem ... then it sounds like Apple needs to step up.
By their handling of this problem I can only suspect that they have an arrangement with carriers to have the wifi become disabled so that we have to use the carriers... and go over our ... data plans.
6 months to go on my plan ... sorry Apple but after 15 years of loyalty ... I'm going to have to reconsider my next phone. When the customer gets treated like a buisiness ... then I guess we have to do the same to you ... nothing personal. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out!

Hi Seraphiel07.
I have a very similar issue. Hardware involved:
Apple MacMini (Mid 2011) - OSX 10.8.2. iTunes 10.7. Home Sharing enabled.
Apple TV (3rd Generation). Home Sharing (access) enabled.
Apple MacBook Pro (15" Mid-2009). OSX 10.8.2. iTunes 10.7. Home Sharing enabled.
Apple iPad 2 (Wifi only). iOS 6
Apple iPhone 4S. iOS 6
All connected through:
Apple Time Capsule 8.0211n (4th Gen)
I have an iTunes library on the MacBook Pro, shared over "Home Sharing" and another (duplicate content, different library name) iTunes library on my MacMini, which is also accessed through the Apple TV.
All software is current (as of Sep 26th).
All movies are iTunes purchases. 80 in total.
All files are purchased (and home shared) under one account.
My last two iTunes purchases both HD movies on 09/17/2012 and 09/05/2012 refuse to appear on any device accessing either of the two Libraries over Home Sharing. It should be noted that every other movie (the other 78) all show up and play correctly. I therefore know it is not an issue with connectivity, otherwise I would see zero movies available.
I have:
1. Removed all content from each Library and re-added
2. Upgraded the OS on the MacMini 10.8.2
3. Tested viewing the two missing movies on other Apple devices and no luck.
4. Turn home sharing on and off within iTunes and also on each device.
It would appear to me that the issue is with the files themselves, rather than the devices as different devices and different versions have been tested.
All comments welcome.

My iPhone 5 does not connect to my Macbook via Bluetooth (this is so frustrating!!)

Ok so i bought my iPhone 5 a couple days ago. So i installed and applications from app store ( on my mac ) which enables me to control my iphone through my mac (via bluetooth). It's very cool when my iphone is docked so i don't need to reach to it every single time. AND. guess what. my iphone refuses to connect to macbook and vice versa.
This is sooo frustrating i'm gonna die.
When i go to the general settings and bluetooth menu, it doesn't even find my macbook. I need to go to the bluetooth menu on mac, set up bluetooth device and then select my iphone. Then, it does pair. BUT it doesn't connect it says:
Connection Unsuccessful
"Macbook Pro" is not supported.
And gives me only on option: "Forget Device"
Any help?

you mentioned you purchased from the mac app store, the only thing I could find is Type2Phone, and that app has some ts'ing steps in its description that match almost exactly what you described /

IPhone does not connect to new Macbook Air 2013

Greating from Brazil,
I have an iPhone 4 and have always used to the USB cable to connect it to my macs. It works perfectly fine in onther 4 macbooks: one macbook white 2007, one macbook pro 2010 and a macbook air 2012.
Now I have the brand new macbook air 2013 and the iPhone is the only USB device I can not connect to it (all my external hard drives, wireless headphone work just fine). What happens is that when I connect the iPhone, it repeatly plays the sound as if it was connected, then it plays the sound as if it was disconnected.
What could I do to make it work?
Thanks

HP Laserjet ProP1102 will not connect with my MacBook Pro

My new Macbook Pro with Yosemite will not print on this printer. It did do so a few days ago but not anymore. In wireless mode it will not communicate with the printer (or the printer will not communicate with it.) When connected with a wire the printer does not respond.
On my old MacPro with Mountain Lion it will print with a wire but not without.
There was a fleeting mysterious notice saying i needed a software update but I cannot find anything to this effect on the HP website.

Hi @DavidL1,
I read your post and see that you are unable to print by a USB or Wireless connection. I will certainly do my best to help you.
Make sure Safari is set as the default browser. (sometimes the EWS won't open if it isn't set as the default)
Open Safari, across the top select the Safari menu, select Preferences, General, set as default.
Restore the printer's default wireless settings:
1. Turn the product off.
2. Press and hold the wireless button and the cancel button and then turn the product on.
3. Hold the buttons until the printer stops making noise, then release the buttons.
Print a a Configuration Page to make sure the IPv4 and SSID are cleared of the old settings.

Repair the Disk Permissions on the Mac:
Close all applications.
On the Apple menu bar, click Go, click Applications and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.

Click Printers & Scanners.
Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left white side panel, then click Reset printing system.
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
