I can no longer wireless print from my mac using my Lexmark X4550 printer

I have read all the previous forums from like a year ago about the troubles that Leopard brought to Lexmark printers, some helped a lot, although I would really like to use my wireless capabilities. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling like 15 times and I decided to post a thread here to hopefully get this resolved. I get as far as installing the printer driver but then when I go to install the printer into my print&fax under system preferences it does not allow me to add the printer... It just does not show up under my printer options. Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED, Thank you.
P.S.
I can print using USB cable but would really like to print wireless. I was able to print wireless before I installed Leopard and have tried talking to Lexmark but no help.

  • I can no longer send emails from my mac yahoo business account, but can send them directly from yahoo. just not from mac mail. I've been able to send emails perfectly fine until today. Help!

    I can no longer send emails from my mac yahoo business account, but can send them directly from yahoo. just not from mac mail. I've been able to send emails perfectly fine until today. I've been on the phone with yahoo mail and they've verified that my account settings are correct and I can send email from yahoo. I can receive emails via Mac mail, but just can't send them. An error message appears that says:
    "Sending the message content to the server failed." I can't send emails from my Mac desktop, iphone or ipad. Any suggestions! Help! I'm a Mac rookie and so frustrated! Thanks.

    Please read and begin using Can receive email, but not send email. I had a similar issue with Comcast mail (could receive by not send) and found my answer in this letter. For me it took resetting the outgoing mail and telling the system to use a password when sending outgoing mail. If you need help with that please advise and I'll tell you where to look. 

  • I used to manage 3 websites using both my imac and macbook, using dropbox, however I can no longer access them from my mac book.

    I have been managing 3 websites using iWeb for the last several years, using both my iMac and Macbook.  However for the last two weeks, I can no longer access these sites from my macbook.  It appears "empty".  When I first started seeing this, I took it to the Genius Bar in another city and he moved some library contents to my desktop - still didin't help.
    I know iWeb is a thing of the past, but I can't stop right now and learn something new for about the next 4 weeks (in a sports team in the middle of a season)
    .  After that, I will have time to learn a new product.
    Also, what is a suggestion for replacing iWeb?  Sandvox? Rapid Weaver?
    Thanks!

    What do you mean when you say you "can no longer access these sites?" Does that mean you can't connect to those sites in your web browser, or that they aren't showing up in iWeb?
    If the latter, note that your iWeb data is all entirely stored in a hidden file. In the Finder, choose Go -> Go To Folder and paste the following path into the window that opens:
    ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb
    In that folder, you will find a single file, called Domain. That's got all the data for all your iWeb sites. If that file is missing, or if it has become corrupt, you will need to restore it from an earlier backup.
    As for replacing iWeb, either Sandvox or RapidWeaver should work. Which works best will depend on your own tastes. Note that neither is capable of fully importing iWeb sites, as those sites will have a lot of content that is copyrighted by Apple. For more information about transitioning to one of these products, see:

  • I can no longer access Twitter from ONE Mac Mini on my network

    Almost every time I try to go to twitter.com on one of my Mac Minis in either Safari or Firefox, I am unable to.
    On Safari I get:
    Safari can’t open the page “https://twitter.com/” because Safari can’t connect to the server “twitter.com”.
    On Firefox I get:
    Unable to connect
    Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at twitter.com.
    * The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
    moments.
    * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
    connection.
    * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
    Every now and then, about 1 out of 10 times, the page will load but it won't update my feed and I am unable to tweet. The twitter app from the app store can not connect either for some reason. Twitter.com works on all other computers on my network except this one. I have cleared my cache, history, cookies, and nothing is working. Anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?
    Message was edited by: iDiscussAppleStuff

    I had this problem with my MacBook Pro. The twitter app would time out trying to connect to the server, and safari just refused to load the twitter web page. All my other apple devices on the other hand worked perfectly. I cleared the cache, history, rebooted, and added the twitter app to my security list, to allow all access. It still didn't do the trick. I gave up for awhile hoping it would fix itself. I took my computer to a coffee shop and the twitter app worked. So I figured, I would reboot my time capsule, just for the heck of it, and It worked..!

  • TS3195 since installing ios7 on my ipad I can no longer import photos to my Mac using Image Capture or even Preview. The device appears in the device list, but no photos appear. Anyone have a solution for this? Is it another glitch in ios7?

    Hi - I just dowloaded io7 to to my mini ipad and now cannot upload the photos on it to my Mac - which I was able to do with the old system, and still can do with my old first generation Ipad. Very annoying. The device appears in the list in Image Capture and Preview, but no photos appear. Is there a way around this? It is the quickest and best way of transferring photos from a mobile device to the computer - but has iOS 7 messed this up???

    Hi I have figured it out on my own just today coz what apple suggested didn't help much so I just have to do it by myself.
    This is what you need to do:
    open your computer and search for autoplay, it will open rightaway and then scroll down look for your device then change "ask everything" to "import photos and videos in windows" connect your ipad again then tthe import box will open.. and your good!
    i hope this will help you. Good luck! :-)

  • TS1398 I can no longer transfer  photos from i photo on my mac to my i pad via iCloud. According to i photo the photos are on i cloud. There is plenty of storage space  available. This happened after installing a new wi fi printer

    I can no longer transfer photos from my mac to my i pad via i cloud
    Accordong to i photo on my mac the photos are in i cloud
    There is plenty of storage available
    Don't know if it is just a coincidence, but problem arose after installing a new wi fi printer

    There are apps such as Simple Transfer which allow you to transfer photos to/from your iPad and your computer via your wifi network - they will copy into the Camera Roll album in the Photos app on your iPad

  • Wireless music from my Mac OSx Leopard

    I have a newer MacBook Pro w/OSx 10.5. I'm trying to figure out if I can achieve wireless music from my Mac using Bluetooth or my wireless network? I don't want to plug anything into my usb ports or my network ports. I simply want to play music from my computer, the way it is. I know I'll have a unit to plug into my stereo, I just don't want to plug anything into my computer.
    I was reading about Stereo Bluetooth Profile (A2DP) on Mac OS X Tiger with Jack Audio, but I don't really understand if that will work, to play music to my stereo from my Mac.
    Any help would be appreciated....
    Thanks,
    Gary

    I'm thinking you've probably already considered this, but Apple's own AirPort router with AirTunes is an incredibly easy way to hook up your computer to your stereo with nothing but your wireless network (which, naturally, the router broadcasts).

    Remove the toner cartridge and gently shake it from side to side while holding it level (in the position it is in while in the printer). Re-insert the cartridge, restart (power cycle) the printer. Then restart the Mac and test.

  • Out of nowhere, I can no longer read files from my timecapsule...

    As of this morning, my Time Capsule, with all of its backups and files (including my iTunes library) can no longer be read from.. It says I have insufficent permission to access the files?
    The TC is hooked up to my Mini in the downstairs, and the computer is saying I have no permission to access the time capsule, even as the admin account. This is confusing as I have been using it for over a year now with no issues...
    It says there is an unkown user on the TC with no access, and even the admin account cant change any settings!

    Videosteve, have a look here. .

    So, when I'd finished, the permissions in get info looked just as your pic shows, as mine did when all this started.
    I did a few test file saves & itunes cd imports & all is now normal.
    I'm coying the original data back now, I'll update you once it's there.

  • Can no longer send email from my accounts but can receive

    I have 5 email accounts set up on my imac. 3 are mine 2 are my partners. I can no longer send emails from my accounts but my partner still can. They all still receive mail but when I attempt to send mail I get:-
    Cannot Send Message Using Server
    Then i'm asked to select a different server from a list. I have tried all but to no avail.
    I first of all deleted my partners sky.com account because it appeared to me that this was maybe overiding all other accounts and it was no longer needed on imac.
    I then deleted one of my accounts - hotmail, to see if i added it again maybe it would work but now I cant even re add the mail account as everytime i go to mail, preferences account to set it up again the initial screen comes up with my partners details including the sky.com username and when i overwrite these and try to install hotmail acount I get told that logging in failed check user name and password is correct. Which they are.
    All used to work fine but now I have these problems, they appeared to have started when my partner set up an icloud account and is synching with this - could this be the cause?
    I can send email from my accounts from iphone still but no longer from imac.

    First,
    I'd run all availiable software updates. After that, I would try removing all of the accounts from "Mail", and then re-adding them. Be aware that if your folders and such are located on your mac, and not on the mail servers, you may risk lose some information (always have a back-up).
    Sometimes, when you have a number of e-mail account there can be server issues abound. I would go into the server lists and make sure that they are set properly. If you see the "use only this server" box, check it for each of them.

  • HT1725 I can no longer download music from itunes store.  Happened when I was Downloading from songs dragged from itunes store to a playlist.  I tried to downloaad more than one at a time.  The download stopped.  Now I can not download at all.

    I can no longer download music from itunes store.  It happened when I was trying to download songs dragged into a playlist.  I tried to download more than one at a time.  It stopped.  Now I cant download at all.  Even rebooted my machine. 

    OK thanks I will try that. I just don't understand why I still can't download new videos as I've deleted the software I installed and I've changed my camera settings back to what they were before when I could download into iPhoto. I perhaps should have mentioned it's iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    It could be as simple as longer (larger) videos - iPhoto does not always handle larger video files well
    Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    iPhoto is not a download and view program - it is a photo management database program that imports photos - Image Capture is a download program - Preview is a view program
    The default program to download your photos is set in the preference panel of either iPhoto or image capture

    I can no longer burn CDs from my iTunes (Macintosh) playlists.  The songs are now formatted as m4a, which might be making them unreadable by my CDs, although this never used to happen before.  Can you help?  Thanks very much.

    After you select Burn, you need to select AudioCD in the pop-up window.
