HP1300 laserJet printer - can't turn on machine off; large green light stays on

Old printer, bought used, has given great service.
Printed great til this evening.
Small green and orange lights stay on; also larger green light "frozen" on (it is the on and off/restart button). Can't turn the printer off using the button.. It will not print at all.
Checked everything, went through problem solving procedure on "Help" menu. Unplugged, also restarted computer, changed USB ports. Still won't print.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks : It worked.. I find it strange though as my playbook was charged to more than half way when I left it. And I only left it for an hour or so. Maybe my memory is wrong though that does happen with me.43 maggie

My battery drained in my iPad 4S and now it won't charge and just cycles through the Apple logo and battery low screens. I can't turn the machine off or on

My battery drained on my iPad 4s and now I can't turn it off or on. It just continues to cycle through the Apple Logo scree for about 10 seconds and than goes blank. Any thoughts would be appreciated

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

How can i turn time machine on macbook air?

how can i turn time machine on macbook air?

Attach an external storage device to hold the backups, or choose a Time Capsule on your Network.
System Preferences > Time Capsule
Select the drive which will hold the backups.
Flip the switch in the System Preferences Time Capsule pane to ON.

I just backed up my mac to an external hard drive using Time Machine. What would happen if I turn Time Machine off and then plug the external hard drive back into my computer?

I just backed up my mac to an external hard drive using Time Machine. What would happen if I turn Time Machine off and then plug the external hard drive back into my computer?
What I am ultimately wanting to do is make more room on my computer by backing up all of my files onto the external hard drive and then deleting them off of my computer. However, neededing to be able to retrieve them from the external hard drive later down the road.
From what I have read and am trying to understand, is that I probably shouldn't have used time machine. I need to use the external hard drive like a basic flash drive where I can put things on and get things off without having it automatically update through time machine everytime I connect it to my computer.
Not tech savvy at all and barely understand basics. I need very simple and easy to understand explanations.

BIG BIG MISTAKE ..... youre making a linchpin deathtrap for your data trying to shove everything on a single fragile HD.
Dont suffer the tragedy other people make, buy another or 2 more HD, theyre cheap as dust.
The number of people who have experienced terror by having a single external HD backup is enormous. One failure that WILL HAPPEN, and kaput,......all gone!
Dont do it, its all about redundancy, redundancy, redundancy.
follow here:
Methodology to protect your data. Backups vs. Archives. Long-term data protection
Deleting them off your computer is fine....having only ONE copy is extremely BAD.
The Tragedy that will be, the tragedy that never should be
Always presume correctly that your data is priceless and takes a very long time to create and often is irreplaceable. Always presume accurately that hard drives are extremely cheap, and you have no excuse not to have multiple redundant copies of your data copied on hard drives and squirreled away several places, lockboxes, safes, fireboxes, offsite and otherwise.
Hard drives aren't prone to failure…hard drives are guaranteed to fail (the very same is true of SSD). Hard drives dont die when aged, hard drives die at any age, and peak in death when young and slowly increase in risk as they age.
Never practice at any time for any reason the false premise and unreal sense of security in thinking your data is safe on any single external hard drive. This is never the case and has proven to be the single most common horrible tragedy of data loss that exists.
Many 100s of millions of hours of lost work and data are lost each year due to this single common false security. This is an unnatural disaster that can avoid by making all data redundant and then redundant again. If you let a $60 additional redundant hard drive and 3 hours of copying stand between you and years of work, then you've made a fundamental mistake countless 1000s of people each year have come to regret.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

How do I make PDF with layers that can be turned on and off?

I am creating a map in Indesign CS4 and I want to have different layers that can be turned on and off. Layers like different places and names that can be controled in Acrobat (and Reader). Im not sure how to go about this and if this is something created through Acrobat or through InDesign. I didnt see anything in ID when converting to a PDF that would save layers in that way so I assume its done in Acrobat Pro? Just need and idea of where to start

Can't turn my iPod OFF!

For the last week or so my iPod won't turn off, which is a bit of a twist on the regular "I can't turn my iPod on" posts.
Until now it would turn itself off after about five minutes unused, or I could turn it off by holding down play/pause, but now it just stays on 24/7 whether it's playing or not.
This is a bit of a pain as I need to make sure it's plugged in overnight or the battery gets run down.
Any ideas?
Oh, and yes I have checked the "hold" switch isn't on.

I just tried the enter button and play button together - that turned it off, but as soon as I let go of the buttons it comes back on again!!
On the third or fourth attempt it turned off and stayed off so maybe I'll just have to think of it as an extra game - test your skill, can you turn the iPod off in less than three goes!

I can't turn my camera off. It's on in my Facebook and I can't shut it off.

I can't turn my camera off. It's on in my Facebook and I can't shut it off.

Double click your home button.
When the bar pops up on the bottom scroll through the list until you see Camera.
Hold down on it until it starts to wiggle.
Click the red minus sign.
Press the home button.
The camera will now be off.

How can I turn off the green light indicator on my AirPort Express?

How can I turn off the green light indicator on my AirPort Express? It really annoys me.

The Zed,
You have two options and you probably won't like any of them.
Using the Airport Utility, click on the AE then "Base Station", then "Options". That will bring up two options for you AE green light, either keep it green at all times or only light up when it is being used.
The second option is put some tape over it.
Hope this helps.

Can not turn the passcode off on my iPhone4

Can not turn the passcode off? Please help to solve this problem, thanks!

If it's a personal iPhone rather than a corporate one. Go to settings, then general, then passcode. You will need to know your passcode and enter it, you will then be presented with the option to turn it off.

I can't turn my phone off. The button is stuck.

Do you have a case on the iPhone? It could be interfering with the button operation.
If that isn't it, you'll have to setup service.

Try resetting it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then releasing. You won't lose any data by doing this.

I tried to update my ipad3..now I have the dreaded red bleeping screen of death... it is literaly bleeping on and off. I can't turn the ipad off and I can't do anything else either. Any thoughts?

I plugged it into my laptop and it still doesn't do anything but blip red.
I knew I should have waited to up date it until I got back. everytime i try to update one of my ipads, something goes wrong.....
I really need my ipad back as I am going on a trip tomorrow morning and need my gps map on there.

I held down the sleep and home key to shut down the ipad.... it's restarting...hopefully this will work!

While downloading the latest IOS update to my iPhone 4, my phone went into a frozen state with the update 2/3's complete. It's remained like this for the past 12 hours. I can't turn the phone off, and I can't connect it to iTunes. Anyone know what to do?

If the place of purchase does not have a 'Lemon' policy (three replacements = refund or complete exchange), sadly you are out of luck.
And Apple themselves do not have any power over what policy a reseller uses. You can call Apple Care and have them replace it, but the odds are you would probably get a standard replacement again like has previously happened. I'm pretty sure Apple holds their own sort of 'Lemon' polocy where if it's been replaced three times through them they'll swap it out for a brand new phone. Not 100% sure though, best bet is too call them again.
And it ***** getting a response like that from their support personel, but hey, they can't all be that bad can they? I'm sure if you plead your case they'll try and help out. I've dealt with them in the past and had one or two people that rubbed me the wrong way, but most of them have been a great help and kept me a happy customer, haha.

Can you turn your broadband off ?

Can you turn your broadband off at night or say when you going out, when you turn it back do you receive the same speed,I'm sure I've had this conversation before and I think you can turn it off .Do any of you turn yours off and does it affect your speed I'm pretty sure it's fine to do just want to be sure.

turning the hub of once a day should cause no problem but multiple restarts in day will cause you connection and speed problems i would not recommend turning it on and off they are designed to run 24/7
