HP Photosmart c309a no longer printing and drivers not available

My HP Photosmart c309a printer which previously worked successfully printing wirelessly suddenly stopped longer working and showed as Offline and the dirvers do not seem to be available for my Macbook Air. I have set the printer back to default settngs and reconfigured wireless and bluetooth. I have turned printer and laoptop on and off. I then removed the printer from the list in Printers and scanners in System Preferences and then have tried to add it it back. The Photosmart shows as a device to be added but when I add it, I then get a message:
"Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."
I have downloaded general HP Photosmart software from apple download site and that hasnt had any effect, and I have tried to download from HP site for C309a for mac http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03967522&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4159&product=373... but there is no download available directly (like there is for Windows). The instructions take you to Printer & Scanners and Add printer, so same vicious circle as above. I have also tried adding the IP address for my printer but get the same message. After trying these various work arounds we can now prnt from daughters PC (after downloading drivers again from HP site) and other daughters mac is now working but i cant add my printer back to my selected prnters on mine. Hoping someone can help me very soon. Thanks Lisa

The radio may have failed. Let's try a test:
Make sure the radio is enabled. The blue Wi-Fi light should be on.
Turn off the Bluetooth radio. The blue BT light should be off.
Press and release together the <setup> and <#> keys. A diagnostic report will be generated.
At the top of the report is a section labeled [ USB Host ]. Tell me the RNDIS PID/VID values.
At the bottom of the report is a section labeled Undirected Scan - Wireless Networks Found = X. Tell me how many networks are detected, the names of the networks, the channel and the RSSI. Also tell me which one is yours.
If the PID/VID in step #4 is N/C and there are no wireless networks found in step #5, then the radio may have failed.
One last check is to turn the printer off and unplug the power supply. Then while pressing and holding the # the 6 keys, plug in the printer power. Hold the keys for 10 seconds then release.
After the printer initializes, repeat the steps above and report back.

I have a photosmart plus b210 e print and when I print with a black back ground I get lines

I have a photosmart plus b210 e print and when I print with a black back ground I get lines. What can I do to eliminate the
lines in the photo
Thank You

Hey appollus,
Do you get these lines only when printing with ePrint? If not, it sounds like a printhead issue. Here are the steps to fix the issue.
1. Go to the setup menu on the printers front screen.
2. Go to tools.
3. Go to clean printhead
You may need to do this a few times to completely remove the lines in the print.

HT203167 I have music on another computer that no longer works and did not back it up. Can Apple somehow retrieve it for me?

I have music on another computer that no longer works and did not back it up. Can Apple somehow retrieve it for me?

If they were purchases from iTunes then have you checked to see if you can re-download them (it's not possible in all countries), assuming that they are still available in the store : re-downloading ? If you aren't in a country where you can re-download past music purchases and you haven't got a backup, then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Printer Preferences is not available when printing PDF

Printer Preferences is not available when printing PDF
I have a PSC 1315 printer I have been using for several years on a system with Windows XP without any problem. After
purchasing an HP Pavilion 500 with Windows 8.1 Pro, I migrated my printer to the new computer. I was disallowed to use the
original driver, and was directed to download the latest driver and software for this printer from an HP website. At
first, things seemed ok, until I ran across several issues, one of which is this one.
Whenever I try printing a PDF file, Windows 8 does not let me see printer preferences. My work around is to go into
printer properties and save changes as default, then I can print PDF files. What happened to the preferences window? It
appears I have lost functionality with the upgrade.
Is this a known problem, and what's the solution?

Printer status is not available at this time

Hello,
I'll try to show how the company's environment is. We have a Windows Server 2008 Standard
edition which is our File server and Print Management as well. We have a total of 5 deployed
printers and all of them except 2 work really well. These 2 printers are exactly the same
"Phaser 8560 Xerox". All drivers are placed on the Server, so all computers download the
drivers whenever They need it for a specific printer. Example: a new employe wants to
print something on the Phaser 8560 printer but his/her computer doesnt have any drivers
installed. The installation is easy: Start>Settings>Printers>Add Printer>Network Printer option>Find a printer in the directory>Look for Phaser and add it. When I choose the printer and press ok it takes like 20 seconds to get the driver from the server and its all done.
Here is the problem:
Whenever I try printing something on the Phasers It does print but a message:"Printer status is not available at this time" pops up right away. The process of printing works but the message keeps coming up. We have almost 150 computers and all of them show the same message. We have the latest drivers in the Server.
With the old driver this message didnt use to show up, so I guess the problem is the driver.

Hi,
Thank you for your update.
As far as I know, PrintingScout is feature of Phaser 8560 printer. It alerts you when print jobs are interrupted and suggests appropriate remedies. When you send a document to the Phaser 8560, the Xerox-exclusive PrintingScout utility monitors and reports any printer condition that might prevent a print job from completing successfully. A pop-up help window provides appropriate how-to instructions, illustrations and links to help the print job owner quickly identify and resolve his or her printing problem. This way, when end users must visit the printer, they are completely prepared to fix any problems. Since you don’t find the PrintingScout button, I suspect that you should uninstall the print driver and update the proper driver from the following link.

On i-pad, when try to enable itunes match, it says, "you are not currently subscribed to iTunes Match. Use iTunes on your computer to subscribe." I am subscribed though! Then it says no my request and item not available in the U.S. store. WWJD?

On i-pad, when I try to enable itunes match, it says, "you are not currently subscribed to iTunes Match. Use iTunes on your computer to subscribe." I am subscribed though! Then it says no to my request and, "item not available in the U.S. store." My Mac will not use update iTunes to any later version than the one I have because my os is also out of date, but when I try to update that i cant, so what do I have to do? Please don't tell me I have to buy a new Mac to be up to date.

On the iOS device you must be logged into the store with the exact same Apple ID you used to originally purchase the service. Go to Setting > iTunes & App Stores and if necessary sign out/in and then enable iTM.

I deleted my account as it was showing up with an old Id ( I'd changed my email) but now I've done that it won't give me the option of logging back on. Do I have to do this on another device Or computer linked to iTunes first?

iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

Just erased my disk, whent to install Maverick and get : "Not available now" message since yesterday. Can someone help me revive my dead IMac!!

If you are selling or giving away the computer then follow these instructions:
Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
Step One - Back up your data:
       A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must
           be shut down from inside Windows.
       B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
          1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
          2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
          3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right side.
          4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be sure
              to opt for that.
          Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
          1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
          2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
          3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
          4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
          5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See What to do with iCloud before selling your computer.
Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
     A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
          1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
          2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
          3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
              Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
          4. Install OS X.
          5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
          6. Shutdown the computer.
     B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                    because it is three times faster than wireless.
          1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
              Utilities window appears.
          2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
          3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list.
              Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
          4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
              and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
          5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
          6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
          7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
          8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
*If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.

HT5958 Existing projects will not update and are not available for Final Cut Pro 10.1.1?

I have updated to Final Cut 10.1.1 but existing projects from previous version will not update and are not available. Have tried to re-install Final Cut as well as bring the projects to another computer which has the update, but they still will not update. Has anyone else encountered this problem and is there anyone who can assist?

In the Finder take a look at the path where your old projects and events are stored. They should be in Final Cut Projects and Final Cut Events folders respectively. Those folders need to be in Users/user/Movies on the boot drive and/or at the root level of other drives for FCPX to see them.
If that's indeed the case, then you should be able to get them updated ny using the Update Projects and Events command form the File menu and then clicking on Locate.

Spy menu only showing some items and properties not available

I am having some issues with the spy menu. In order to try and fix my issues I built the menu from scratch again on one of my pages. Everything works now on that page and when I upload it to the server, it is all there.
However, when I then copy and paste the menu to all the other pages and upload the the server, the submenu doen't show anymore. When I go and troubleshoot it and highlight the menu in its entirety and click properties, no properties will show. On the working page, this ation delievers me a properties bar where I can + or - menu items. Why is this? As this must be why the submenu is not showing either?
The page where everything works is this (See sub menu under coaching clinics) http://www.golifecoaching.com.au/go-beyond-registration-test but on every other page on this website, this submenu disappears.
Can anyone help? I am tearing my hair out and don't fancy having to build the menu from scratch for every page. There has to be a better way.
I use CS4 and this is my menu;
   <div id="navigation">
    
    <ul id="MenuBar2" class="MenuBarHorizontal">
      <li><a href="index.html">Home</a>        </li>

That is brilliant, that is exactly it! Thank you sooooo much for your suggestion. I am so relieved.
Yes a template would be best, but I am not sure how to do that, so I am left with doubling my work evertime I make a change on this site.
Thanks Jen

Subject: Spy menu only showing some items and properties not available
Disclaimer: I am new to coding in general and this is my first attempt to help someone.
I think the properties bar with the + - has to do with the javascript coding that is generated when you create a new tag, and it is located near the bottom of the page just before the closing body tag.
looks something like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
var MenuBar2 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar2", );
</script>
so dont forget to copy that over too. Also, check the CSS that is associated within each page and make sure they are all in the same style.
P.S. Have you considered using a template for the menu bar so you dont have to copy it over each time?

You just resync your iPhone with iTunes on your laptop.
If you are logged with the same Apple ID on both devices it should be available to download from your phone:
