HP P1102w and new Mac Mini not talking...

Hi All,
This is a similar issue to all the other threads involving the P1102w and Lion. It is a little different in that the printer is already on the network and running successfully with 2 other minis, 2 iphone 4s, and 2 ipad2s... it just wont work with the new mini.
I have read over many threads and seen lots of different answers and solutions but I didnt want to just jump in and start messing things up when there is (maybe) a simpler fix.
I know that the printer firmware is up to date, at least to a month ago when I installed it the first time. I do have a windows laptop if the solution is to do the HTML config I saw in another thread.
So, if anyone can point to the solution to this isue I would be forever greatful.
Thank you for your time in this matter.
Cheers,
Alex

  • ITunes on new Mac mini not recognizing my 1st gen iPod

    I just got a new Mac mini. It has iTunes v6.0.4. My 1st generation iPod is v1.5. When I buy a song and attempt to transfer it from the 'Purchased' folder to my iPod, I'm getting an error message that says, 'Some of the songs in the iTunes music Library were not copied to the iPod because you are not authorized to play them on this computer.' Do I need to plug my iPod into the computer I was using before and click on 'Deauthorize Computer' before I try to use this one?

  • Problem with USB speakers and new Mac Mini

    I have a USB sound system consisting of a pair of Harman Kardon soundsticks and a woofer from probably 10 years ago (bought and used originally with a Mac). I have tried driving it my new Mac Mini. It works fine for about a minute; then the music stops. Here's what I've tried to diagnose the problem:
    1. The problem does not occur when these speakers are driven from my Macbook Air (about 3 years old).
    2. The OS and iTunes software is up to date on both machines (10.9.5 and 12.0.1.26).
    3. It does not depend on which USB port I use on the Mac Mini.
    4. Using a port on a USB extender on the Mac Mini does not solve the problem.
    5. The iTunes Preference settings are the same on both machines.

    Sorry, no actual experience with USB Audio devices.
    I found this in the Pro forum, but the outlook doesn't seem good:

  • Powerbook and new Mac Mini compatibility

    I'm considering purchasing a new intel-powered mac mini with airport express to use as a house server.
    In addition, as I can't afford to replace my G4 powerbook just yet, I was hoping that I might be able to use the Macmini as an short-term alternative for intel-enabled software.
    So, my question. Could I network my G4 powerbook and new macmini in such a way that I could run intel-enabled software on the mini, via my powerbook screen and keyboard. Effectively using my powerbook as a dumb terminal for the macmini.
    Is that possible given the chipsets?

    MacEnstein. Welcome to discussions!
    Best to start a new question - many people will stop looking here since it is marked answered. This lets you get the attention you deserve and keeps one problem per thread.
    But - we are here - so let's see what happend.
    Bonjour will find computers on the same network. That means unless you have gone to pains to set up two DHCP servers and change things substantially - things will work on most home networks.
    Open the terminal application on both computers and do a netstat -nr - each should have the same gatway for the default destination and same network destination (look for 192.168.1/24 or similar) under the Gateway column where it says link#4
    Most likely you will have IP addresses like 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1/24 - feel free to start a new thread or post your netstat -nr results of it's not clear what I'm doing.
    Also - you can simply test this out from the command prompt. Each machine is known by a host name - type hostname -s on each. If Bonjour is going to work - machine "a" should be able to ping machine "b" as follows:
    ping b.local
    the .local says use Bonjour to find the machine named b and ping it.

  • New Mac Mini, Not so new LCD HDTV Monitor, no mac support

    I have been attempting to set up a Mac Mini with a Maxent LCD 26" HD TV I can't get either the RGB or DVI-D input to accept signal. I have purchased DisplayConfigX and SwitchResX_X. Maybe they could work, but I can't get a signal to stay on long enough to change the settings as listed in other posts. I have tried booting in safe mode as DisplayConfigX instructions suggest. But still only am able to see the screen until gear starts spinning with apple logo, resolution changes spontaneously to one that I suppose is unsupported and I get the unsupported display and a beautiful blank blue screen. I tried manually inputting the resolutions the monitor manual lists, while connected with an lcd pc monitor. But I can't get the Maxent LCD TV monitor to stay on. It appears that if I could get the Mac Mini to send this resolution signal to the Maxent I would be able to delete any unneeded settings and that would be it.
    Perhaps Tom Fussy can help me.I have been at this for over two weeks now. So I have become super frustrated. Of course Maxentusa.com offers no Mac support. But state that if Mac mini is supposed to work with PC that it should work with my Mac Mini. My LCD TV is about 6 months old I could still return it for maybe a Sharp Aquos, if that $300 dollar more TV would work. I am happy with the Maxent otherwise. Keeping it, and having it work with Mac Mini Is my choice. Of course Apple offers no support for the Maxent monitor and directed me here. This is my first discussion group post. School me if I have not followed the rules completely.

    I was able to get the settings for Maxent using Gregory's software to force 640x480. Here are my settings

  • Ichat video hosting and new mac mini

    I understand that one cannot host a 3 way video chat with a G4 machine,which I have.
    Can one host the 3 way video chat with a new Intel Mac mini?
    And does it matter that the other 2 participants would be using G4 machines?
    Regards
    J

    Nobody has answered the question which was whether multi chat would work with the new Intel Mac Minis.
    I have one on order so I guess I will be able to give you the definitive answer in a couple of days however I would expect that both the single and dual core Intel minis will have the horsepower to run Multi Chats.
    Powerboost is a great workaround for G4 Macs and I can confirm that a G4 1Gig Powerbook is more than capable of running a 3 way multichat with this program installed.

  • 64-bit Win 7 and new Mac Mini

    I have the newest Mac Mini (HDMI and 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo). Boot Camp's online PDF document says that Mini's can't run Windows 7 64-bit. I am assuming this is wrong now with the even more powerful Minis on the market.
    Can you run 64-bit Win 7 on the newest Mini?

    Yeah, I wrote this wrong. Its ITunes has stopped working and Windows is trying to solve problem, then shuts down.
    I have un-installed , re-installed. Tried earlier version and that wont work any more. Changes firewall, pop-ups whatever...........nothing works. And Apple has been no help. Run test and it says all test are good even to Apple store??

  • New Mac Mini not seeing my Apple TV

    I just got a new Mini and used the migration assistant to migrate my accounts and files from my old Mac to the new one.
    However, when I launch iTunes, my AppleTV is not showing in the left-bar or the Preferences. It used to show and sync just fine with my old Mac (G4 MDD Dual 1.25GHz).
    I have the latest update running on the AppleTV (3.0.1) and am running the latest Mac OS (10.6.2) and iTunes (9.0.2). My library is still named the same, since I migrated my old account settings.
    Is there anything I need to reset/change for iTunes to see the AppleTV?
    P.S. I have "Look for Apple TVs" checked in the iTunes Preferences.
    Thanks

    Go to your TV menu and reset the synch for the new computer. I had the same problem when I got a new Mini. Not sure if it is due to the new computer or Snow Leopard. Even though the library & network names are the same, seems the TV knows the computer itself is different. Kill the current synch & set up a new one just like you did when the TV was new. You can use the same names. You will get a new pass-code to enter on iTunes when you do. The big negative is everything on the TV is dumped and has to be re-synched. If your library is very large, do it overnight.

  • New Mac Mini USB problem

    I have a brand new Mac Mini (December, 2011, 10.7.2) as well as an older Mac Mini (circa 2005, 10.6.4).
    I bought a new GearHead USB wireless mouse to go with the new mini.
    The mouse works fine on the old Mini (and also on a Windows PC).
    On the new Mini, the mouse works until the Mini hibernates or powers down. On wake-up, the mouse doesn't work until I unplug and replug the USB transmitter.  This is the case on all USB ports on the Mini, as well as on the keyboard and monitor USB ports. It doesn't matter which port I use or which port I unplug and replug into - I always need to unplug and replug the transmitter to get it to work after power- or hibernate-cycle.
    Note that I have also tried a Logitech USB wireless mouse and an Apple Bluetooth mouse and they both work fine on both the new Mini and the old Mini.
    The problem is only occurs between the Gearhead brand USB mouse and New Mac Mini (10.7.2).
    I assume that the problem is that the mini is powering down the USB port and not refreshing it after power cycle, until I unplug and replug the transmitter. Alternatively, I suppose, the transmitter could be asserting itself early in the boot process before the Mini is awake enough to hear it.  In either case, it seems that the band-aid fix is a command-line to force the OS to refresh the ports, but I can't find any reference to such a command.
    Thank you for any help you can provide.

    Hello,
    I assume that the problem is that the mini is powering down the USB port and not refreshing it after power cycle,
    To me it seems like when the usb is powered down the trnasmitter loses the signal with the mouse, i think your mini is perfectly fine, even though the mouse works fine on the old mini I think its how the transmitter handshakes with the new mouse on the new mac mini. Do you have a new mouse of the same brand that you can test and see if it has the same issue...
    If so then it forsure the transmitter... not the mini... else take your mini in for health check.
    good luck, let me know how u go...

  • Can the new Mac Mini run OSX 10.7.5?

    I have the new 1.4GHz Mac Mini w/4GB Ram. I bought a Mediasonic external 4 bay drive. It's connected by USB 3.0. One of the drives in the enclosure is my old HD with Mac OSX 10.7.5 installed. I've tried booting up from that drive through the USB 3 connection with no luck. Is it an external drive issue or does the new Mac Mini not support that old of an OS? Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!

    Not outside of a product such as VirtualBox, Parallels Desktop, or VMware Fusion; Mac OS X 10.7.5 doesn't contain the drivers needed to boot that Mac model.

  • I have a new Mac mini and are using an Acer monitor. Unfortunately, the Acer will not show any image on a startup from cold. It does however work completely correctly when restarting from 'sleep' condition. Can anyone help? Thanks in anticipation.

    I have a new Mac mini- changed from Windows XP. I have a peculiar problem. I use an Acer monitorwith the Mac which works fine when the Mac is 'un-sleeped'. But, if I have shutdown the Mac the Acer does  not recognisethe start up - at least it shows nothing on screen. When I have shut down - nowknowing the problem, I use an old Samsung monitor to cope with the start up -it does so fine - and then put the Mac to 'sleep', then change monitors andrestart the Mac - the Acer is now fine. I am using the same cables for theSamsung and the Acer. The Acer had no problems with my old Windows system -from sleep or shut down. I really do not think there is anything wrong with theAcer - could it be some sort of recognition problem? Please can anyone assist.Donald Picton

    I posted the same question a day ago with no response. I'm using an Acer x193w. You actually don't have to switch monitors to get it to work. Just make sure you turn off the monitor after shutting down the Mac mini (actually push the power button on the monitor, not just let it go to sleep). If you turn on the monitor (push the power button on the monitor), then power up the Mac mini, the monitor is recognized. The issue didnt exist with Snow Leopard for me. It only started after I started using Lion. Hope this issue gets fixed In a future OS update.

    Congratulations on the new Mini. Are you saying you tried burning and it does not play, or do you want to burn it only for the computer to be able to play it?

  • Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

    Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

    The power button for the Trackpad is on the right hand end of the battery case. Press that button to initiate the pairing process. On the top of the Trackpad just above the power button is a tiny green light (you probably cannot see it unless it is lighted). That light will indicate ehther or not the Trackpad is discoverable. If the Trackpad has discoverable the green light will blink on and off. If it does not pair within 3 minutes you will have to press the power button again to re-initiate the pairing process. Once your Trackpad has paired, you can just leave it on and it will pair automatically when you reboot your Mac.
    If you are having problems pairing, try turning off any other Bluetooth devices within 30 or so feet of your Mac mini. That includes other Computers, iPhones, iPads, etc. that may be in the area. Once your Trackpad has pairedwith your mini, you don't have to be concerned about other Bluetooth devices.
    One other hint, I find that although the Wireless Trackpad does not eat batteries as fast as the Magic Mouse it still uses more than the Wireless Keyboard. It is a good idea to keep a supply of AA batteries around. I have used Apple's Rechargable batteries, but found they did not last that long before needing to be recharged. I have had the best battery life from Duracell Quantum batteries.

  • New mac mini system will not recognize wireless keyboard and trackpad.

    My brand new mac mini system will not initialize properly.  The return on the track pad are not being recognized, although scrolling is. Any others find this?  Support could not figure this out on the phone.  They sent me out to get new batteries and now they are closed.  Batteries have been changed and still nothing.

    My Mac MINI gave me one heck of a time trying to get it  to recognize my Bluetooth mouse and keyboard. both Apple brand.
    I finally had to connect an old USB mouse and keyboard to get the silly thing to connect. 
    Don't forget to repair permissions. 
    I also had to shut the computer down and start it back up a couple of times before it would connect.  I think it has to do with the new Bluetooth 4.0 wireless technology.
    I also turned off my Bluetooth devices and turned them on again, then I pulled the batteries out a couple of times and tried again and again.
    I also put in new battries even thiough the ones I replaced were about a week old.
    Finally, the MINI recognised the mouse and keyboard.
    I wish I could tell you which thing did the trick.
