I am a Mac User having "broken pipe" issues with my HP photosmart 7510

I am a Mac user having trouble printing from my computer to my HP photosmart 7510. The message is that I have a
"broken pipe". What is this?  What do I need to do to fix this?

Basically the OS is telling you that it has lost the ability to write data to the printer.  This would typically be caused by some sort of corruption in the CUPS printing system.
The first thing I would try is Restting the print system and re-adding the printer.
To do this open System Preferences and then Open Print & Fax.  Then <control> click or right click on the blank space around the list of printers on the left hand side.  You should see a pop up menu and the option to Reset print system.
Once you select that the OS will restore the CUPS printing system to all the original default settings.  Thsi will of course erase all of your print queues.
Once that is done I would reboot the Macintosh and the printer.  Then go back to System Preferences--> Print & Fax and then re-add the printer.
I worked for HP but my posts and replies are my own....Thank you!

    I'm having a billing issue with my apple id. I got my first iPhone today and I've signe din etc however before i can download any apps etc i need to resolve an old payment apparently. The problem is i cant enter my new card details because the issue is registered to when i was in America and i require to pay the funds from an American source. Any ideas how i can resolve this? It wont accept my new card detail as im back in the UK. I think i have posted this in the wrong area but anyone got any ideas?
    I have managed to change the rest of my accoutn being registered to the UK i think except this

    Hi..
    You can email Apple for help but the link is for the iTunes store not the Mac App Store. You've inadvertently poasted in the Using Mac App Store forum but that's ok. Billing issues are the same for the iTunes Store.
    Click here > Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us
    It wont accept my new card detail as im back in the UK
    Your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

  • Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

    Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

    Yes, BUT...
    ... there are many problems that are really easy to eliminate by replacing the Hard drive, including ones that have nothing to do with actual Drive Hardware failure. These include corrupted install of Mac OS X, its EFI partition, clobbered partition tables, or the appearance of Bad Blocks in a critical area.
    Any of these problems can sometimes be eliminated by re-initializing the entire drive and writing Zeroes, and re-installing from scratch. The trouble is, this process takes hours to complete, and is not guaranteed to be successful -- you may still need a new drive after all that effort.
    I learned from my Plumber that consumers have no appetite for solutions that might work, and detest return visits for any related problems whatsoever. You or your friend may have had your drive replaced, not because it actually failed, but because the situation was troublesome, and the provider thought you would not tolerate anything less than a crisp, complete fix on the first attempt. And based on the cost of technician time, it may have even been cheaper that way.

  • I am having some serious issues with firefox, i can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and I can't use any of the drop down menus on any site

    I am having some serious issues with firefox to the point of choosing another search engine. I can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and won't let me change it to my printer when i do try to select my printer it jumps right back to fax. The drop down menus do not work on any of the sites I go to. For example when purchasing clothes and you have to choose a size from a drop down menu I can't do it when I click on the drop down menu it doesn't work at all. I don't have a virus I ran my virus protector and no viruses are present. I don't have any suspicious issues going on with my computer so there has to be something in Firefox that is causing my issues. I tried internet explorer and I don't have any issues there. I hope you can help me because I love Firefox and would really like to continue to use it.

    Lots of issues there, main one getting fcpx going again, try deleting the preferences using the utility deveoped by these guys.

  • Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?

    Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?

    okay I've finally been able to get tor and all the other programs to work according to my plan the only thing that's still making problems is that iptables doesn't work as I want it to, when I start chromium without proxy settings privoxy doesn't seem to forward the information to polipo.. do I need to add another rule to iptables.rules in order for the program to know it has to reroute the information again or how can I get this to work? and is there any way to run rtorrent with proxy support?
    anyway, problem 2 and 3 are still to be solved.
    and does anybody know where i can get a good dansguardian blacklist that was not designed for 6 year old children and for which I don't need to subscribe? I'm still getting these partypoker popups -.-
    //e: with iptables it's the same thing as described in the first post. https works, http doesnt. I get the output "Invalid header received from client." on http sites. still no idea why though.. (and the https-version of torcheck.xenubite says i'm tor unprotected while starting the browser with iptables)

  • Having start-up issues with my 1st gen Macbook Pro

    Hi everyone. I just started having start-up issues with my first generation Macbook Pro. It was working fine the other day when I last used it, but today I went to use it and it wont load up to my desktop...? It starts up (grey screen with the little swirly bar under the apple,) then it goes to a blue screen, then my background and dock appear, then (before any of my desktop files even show up,) it goes to a blue screen (that brightens up and then dims a little,) and it just keeps showing this with a little swirly progress symbol (shows when the screen is darker blue, then disappears when the screen is a brighter blue.) I've included a video that I took with my iPhone to show it situation. Any ideas as to what's wrong with it? Thanks in advance!

    Safe Boot by restarting your computer while holding down the "shift" key.  Safe booting disables all nonessential processes, often times allowing you to start up when you would otherwise crash.
    As of OS X 10.5.6 Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache location in the /var/db/dyld directory.  A corrupt cache here can cause the blue screen crash.  Once you restart normally, the cache will be recreated.  This should take care of the issue.

  • My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. Any tips?

    My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. I tried restarting it a few times, nothing worked. I looked up many tutorials, and still nothing did the trick. Any tips?

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

    Replace the jack yourself

  • Mac users having issues with my Site

    I just recently had a Mac user complain to me that my website wasn't working for him http://woodsshop.com/index.htm
    I'm wondering if the fact I edit my site using CS3 might be his problem?, but that's a wild guess on my part.
    he said
    " when I enter your web site...under "creative builders"  when I click on "kits", "plans" "japanese" "about us" or "contact us"  my computer freezes...in other words, it just see there, waiting for the site to come up and it never does.  No drop down windows or anything, its just that your site does not move from one area to the next smoothly.  Now this is on my 6 month new apple computer....and as I said, everwhere else I go, no problems....."
    I contacted my Host, they recommended he clear his cache, didn't help him.
    So I went and posted a question on the Mac Safari forum, asking if other Mac users were having issues, some of them are, some not, but enough are, and that has me concerne, how many others can't even access my site?
    Here's that discussion
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3880515
    I went and looked at my AW Stats and Mac users are just a small part of my traffic it looks like.
    [IMG]http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/JoeWood_/Misc/AW-Stats.jpg[/IMG]
    So I'm Hoping someone here has some insight :-)

    Alright, this clears the air somewhat.
    Do one thing, if you have created the course, you must be aware about the answers, enroll yourself as a user and --
    Appear for the course, make sure, you answer all (or enough questions to score 85% marks.) Not just the quiz you have to make sure you view 50% of the slides completely. So that means, if the slide dureact for each slide is say 1minute and there are 40 slides, view a minimum of 20 slides completely to their 1 minute duration.
    Only then you would recieve a completed result.
    Please try the above scenario and verify you get a completion on your LMS. If you do, then check again your User reports and you will certainly find that your users had failed ne or the other criteria (Slide Views/ Quiz Score)
    Alternately, if you want to be linient enough to just mark completetion on Quiz Result, you can uncheck the Slide views option from Success/Completion Criteria, under Reporting.
    Good Luck!

  • Users Having Troubling Sending Email with Mac Mail Client with Godaddy

    Hello,
    I recently had issues' with my mail and my new Mac Pro and sending emails from www.godaddy.com. I tried 4 email clients and could retrieve my emails but the outgoing mail server keep rejecting my password. After I almost switch email companies I called one last person from godaddy. The support person James M suggested deleting the account in my email manager on godaddy system and re-created the account and everything works fine. Please note, to back up emails before doing this. I think something is corrupting something in the server that requires the deletion of the email account that is only effecting 10.64 users.
    Best of luck,
    M

    Have GoDaddy reset the SMTP relays to 0 (zero), then back up to 250 (or whatever your limit is). This reset the password authentication and emails were sent fine afterwards. Good luck.

    The following is the scenario where the broken pipe exception occurs to me:
    - webapp on a Linux server with Apache + Tomcat.
    - database (SQL Server) on another computer.
    - the webapp creates one db connection at startup, stores it in the ServletContext and always uses that connection for any db access.
    - If the db server is restarted, or just the SQL Server service is restarted, the connection that was in the ServletContext becomes invalid, and any attempt to access the db through it throws the broken pipe exception.
    At this point the webapp has to recreate the connection and re-store it in the ServletContext in order to gain access to the db again.

  • Broken Pipe issue on HP

    I was printing large format color images on my HP Color LaserJet CP1515 with great results when suddenly one image did not come out. I checked the printer and appeared this info: Error 49 Broken Pipe... I thought it was a printer problem, I turned off and on and tried to print the demo page. It worked perfectly, tried an Acrobat file with image and again perfect, so I tried again the file I had the issue and again no results... This file was being printed using Photoshop.
    I would appreciate any help about this issue.
    Thanks!
