HP Officejet 8600 all-in-one will not allow me to use features

ALCON - after installing Yosemite (well upgrading) my all-in-one is not functioning. I have gone to HP's website to no avail nothing that can help. I uninstalled the software restarted my computer and restarted the printer. Updated the firmware on printer yet nothing is working correctly. I cannot scan documents nor fax. I get a message from the printer saying that the printer cannot communicate with the computer. I also have the HP assistant installed on my mac and yet still the computer cannot communicate with the printer's scanner and vice versa. I am at a loss. Any feedback would be appreciated. I really need to scan some documents and get them sent out. I had to go to my PC as a last resort. Suggestions please?

I may have found a fix for this problem. For those who are using Mavericks or Yosemite: Uninstall the current printer driver and install the printer driver dated Oct 22, 2014 and then install a patch update. I will copy and paste the link. For some odd reason the drivers I had prior to upgrading the OS was not willing (I upgraded from Mountain Lion).

TS1398 My wireless router failed and I had to purchase a new one. My security on the new one will not allow me to use the same password. I entered a new password, but of course it is not on my ipod or ipad mini . How can I enter new password ?

My wireless router in my home has failed. I purchased a new router, but it will not allow some of the characters which I used for my old password. Therefore I cannot access the internet with my ipad mini or my ipod touch. I am unable to change the password on either device. How do I go about changing the password on these units so that I can access the internet? Thanks

8500e all in one WILL NOT ALLOW sprint anymore

This used to work, but now nothing works.
Mac OSX 10.9.2 on the main computer. The printer connects fine to the wireless network. All machines on the network, wired, or wireless, can print to the machine. None of the ios devices can see the printer.
I have removed and reinstalled. Checked firmware update, reviewed seetings on the HP eprint web site. Nothing in any related posts works.
There is something which simply does not work. All of the other posts go thru the same simple setup instructions that DO NOT WORK.
Does anyone have another idea how to force this to work?
I also downloaded the hpeprint app on my iphone 4s. I am not even sure what it does. I don't want to have to email every **bleep** thing i want to print from an ios device when the very simple "print" is supposed to (AND UNTIL RECENTLY DID) work.

Hi Jvarner,
Welcome to the HP Support forums. I gather that you are getting a “No AirPrint printers found” message on your iOs devices when trying to print to your Officejet Pro 8500A printer.
There is a sub-section titled “What if a 'No AirPrint Printers Found' message displays on my Apple device?” in the How to Use Apple's AirPrint Over a Wireless Network document. Please follow the steps for Solution One: Restart all devices and check network connections.
If that doesn’t resolve the situation, have there been any changes to your network recently (new router, new internet service provider, router firmware updated, changed password on network, etc)?
Regards,

My HP Officejet 6500 E709a All-in-One will not print more than one copy at a time. This is especially disconcerting at Christmas time when you're trying to get Christmas letters in the mail! Any help?

The cyan portion of the printhead may be clogged. I would suggest running the diagnostics shown here. If three levels of cleaning of the printheads does not resolve the issue you may need a new printhead.

HP OfficeJet 8600 All-In-One cannot be connected

I just bought a new HP OfficeJet 8600 All-in-One printer. It's a wireless unit and initally connected to my home
network no problem and I could print from several puters in the house fine. I have Bell internet with a wireless
home router that uses DHCP.
Today, my wifes win7 laptop is unable to print to it for some reason. I tried to delete the printer from her computer
and re-add it however, the computer when I run the HP installer software to reach the printer, it isn't able to connect
to it. During the installation, it say:
Discovering Device....
and never leaves there.
However, I can define the printer in Windows "Add a Printer" using the HP OfficeJet K8600 printer driver.
One thing on the IP address that the printer is using. I checked it on the printers configuration vs what the windows
printer definition had and it was wrong on the printer driver configuration. I used the HP utility to update the printer IP
address to what the printer is currently using.
Any ideas on why the printer cannot be re-added using the HP all-in-one installer?

I would bet it is your router. Its supplied by your ISP, right?
First, restart the router by pulling its power cord momentarily.
Next, set a static IP address for the printer:
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). If you do not know the range, change the last set of numbers (those after the last '.') to 250
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Enter your router's IP (on the Network Config Page) for the gateway.
- Enter 8.8.8.8 for the first DNS and 8.8.4.4 for the second DNS. This is Google DNS. You can choose another external DNS if you wish.
- Click 'Apply'.
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

I am trying to use photomerge compose. I open one standard jpeg image and one image that is my business logo in a png format.

It has worked in the past but I downloaded the update today and photomerge will not work correctly. Any ideas?

hedger,
How do you expect anyone to help when we don't know a darned thing about the file, abut your setup, exact version of Photoshop and your OS, machine specs, etc.?
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.
Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

In order to download to your phone over the air, you need to be connected to WiFi.
It's possible the Internet connection through Verizon is not stable enough for the downlaod to begin (it is a very large download).
You might want to head over to Starbucks with your laptop for the afternoon and see if you can download it over their WiFi.

I wonder if the disk being referred to is actually your iPod which is not plugged in. Maybe something has stuck thinking the iPod should be there.
Try completely removing all the iTunes related programs according to this method.

Restart you PC and see if startup improves.
If it doesn't improve you need to consider the possibility that there is something else going on.
If The problem goes away, hopefully a fresh install will be OK.

My old iphone was replaced today, due to faults. Now it will not allow me to use my credit card account for the appstore and itunes?

My old iphone was replaced today, due to faults. Now it will not allow me to use my credit card account for the appstore and itunes?
Please don't tell me to retry, or re check my information because it is all correct, it basically says u cannot use thi account due to it being connected to another device... which is my old fault iphone, at the apple store.

I have never before heard of cards being locked to a single device... but your case has shown me that it happens.
If I am getting it right you try to log in to your account and it asks for billing information, and when you enter your card details it tells you that the card cannot be used. If that is the case then I'm sorry to say that my only suggestion would be to contact iTunes support directly; the contact form can be found in here: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us

What kind of peripherals are you connecting? Sometimes if an external device is drawing too much power, then it will shut down one of the USB ports. Make a test connecting two usb flash drives, it should work ok.

Try rebooting. Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPhone should restart. See if you can use it when it comes back up.
