I have a new MacBook Pro that prints fine with my upstairs computer, but the IMAC will not print through the AirPort

I have a Canon printer (USB), in my office. I plugged it in to the back of the Airport Router. The downstairs new MacBook Pro can print with either of my two printers upstairs with no problem. The IMac upstairs can not see the Canon printer at all. When I go to Print & Fax settings, it does not see the printer! How can I solve this?
THANKS!

You will need to get on the Canon website and download the latest drivers for your printer on the iMac.
That's really about all that you can do.

Hi,
I purchased Huawei Dongle and trying to connect with my new MacBook Pro (OS- Mountain Lion) USB port 3.0 but unfortunately it does not support.
When I plugged in my macbook the power is flowing in dongle due green light blinking twice in every 3 sec but no connection found or diver shown.
Please let me know how I have to use it. I got some suggestion for USB hub 2.0 but It does not make any sense and driver installation.
So please suggest proper direction to use it and provide link to install any driver.
Thanks
Tauheed Ahmad

Yes Clinton I did same, but they were (Huawei customer support) surprised about this problem, They behave like they have no idea about USB 2.0 and 3.0 knowledge. They handsUp that reason I posted my problem in this forum.
So is there any better solution to use any mediator between these USB version handling, Please let me know.
Thanks
Tauheed

My MacBook Pro didn't come with a recovery CD and recovery HD will not show up

My MacBook Pro didn't come with a recovery CD and recovery HD will not show up

if you're running Snow Leopard - there there will be no recovery partition - only Lion and Mountain Lion has that.
did you buy your Macbook used?
you can call Apple to order the original install DVD for your Macbook or you can order Snow Leopard for $20.

My external hard drive doesn't wont let me save with my new MacBook Pro, I could save with my old one but not with my new one.

Ok so I recently got a new MacBook Pro and my external hard drive will let me see what I have on it but wont let me save. It worked fine with other MacBook Pro's with snowleperd but dosen't seem to work with my Mountian Lion.

Open Disk Utility
Select the external drive
Then read the parameters for that drive

Does anyone have a new MacBook Pro that makes a buzzing sound on startup?

My new (60 days) MacBook Pro makes a buzzing sound on startup- does anyone else have this issue? Thanks!

Keep at the Genius Bar.
For one, you have a default 1 year warranty, which you do not want to let expire.
For another, that chine is a critical part of the system, that for some is an annoyance but at least it sticks around.
At some point, they have to either fix it or give you another (at least in my opinion they will eventually have to give me on that chimes).
Make a very good clone before you go back in. CarbonCopyClone ($40 download). You will need to clone it back onto a new system eventually, I suspect.

My wife has just had a new iPad and while Wifi works fine with it at home, at work it will not connect to the Wifi despite the correct password being entered. The 'waiting wheel' simply goes round and round next to the Wifi network attempting connection.

My wife has just had a new iPad and while the Wifi works fine at home, at work she is unable to connect after entering the correct password etc. The 'waiting wheel' simply spins next to the network attempting to connect. The iPad version is 5.1.1 and not the IOS 6 which seems to be problematic on the Wifi front. To add to the mystery my own iPad connects fine to my wife's place of work. Is it possible to take the manual settings from mine and connect that way? Or any other suggestions?

When your device is trying to connect to the work Wi-Fi network, go to Settings > Wi-Fi > then tap on the name of the Netowrk that she is having trouble with. Then tap on forget this network. Let the device attempt to connect again and make absolutely sure she is trying to connect to the work network and not a nearby network, then make absolutely sure the password is entered correctly.

I have a 2011 Macbook pro that I updated with Mac OSX lion and now my computer keeps freezing when I am on safari or Microsoft word. Can anyone help me please? I need this computer for school.

I wake the computer from sleep and then it freezes either within 5 minutes or it could take an hour.

Try to repair disc permissions. Also see if MSOffice is compatible with Lion.

What is a great 1TB portable hard drive for a new macbook pro that works great with lightroom?

I want to keep all my photos on the portable drive while working in lightroom. Is there much speed difference between USB 3 and thunderbolt?

You might want to take a look at the LaCie Rugged series.
You can get it in both USB 3 or thunderbolt....yes, thunderbolt is easily 2-3x faster than USB 3.

If I reset my computer it will print whatever the first thing is in the que but nothing else and does not work after that. Is there some sort of setting that I am missing? I am trying to set this printer up to work wirelessly from three mac laptops in my house but I can't even get it to work on one right now. Any help would be awesome

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.

I have a new Macbook Pro and an old Canon ip Pixma 8500. I have downloaded the software from Canon but my printer settings will still not register it. Looks like I can print a colour calendar but not a letter!

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel?
