I'm having trouble with my HP plotter connection to Airport Extreme

I have connected Airport Extreme in my office. It seems to be connecting to the internet, however I have my HP 800PS plugged into the USB on it and I keep getting that the "printer is off line." Can someone help me? I just thought I could plug in the plotter to airport extreme and it would work.
Thanks,
Dee

Did you "install" the printer/plotter again?
Open Print and Fax
Click on the + (plus) button at the bottom of the printer list to start the process
Hopefully, your Plotter/printer will show up
If yes, click to highlight the name of the device
Click Add
Now try to print. It will appear as if you have two of the same printers. You must choose the correct "location" to print.
I do not know if a Plotter is supported at the AirPort Extreme. If the device does not "show up" after you click the plus button, the Plotter is not going to work when connected to the AirPort Extreme. You will need to connect it directly to your computer.

  • Troubles with D-Link DIR 600 and AirPort Extreme

    Hi guys
    The question might has already been raised but I couldn't find anything in any other threads helping me.
    I've got a new router (came along with my new ISP) D-Link DIR600 which I tried to connect to my AirPort Extreme to have a secondary WiFi available. My devices are connected in this way:
    Internet Modem ---> AirPort Extreme (cable) ---> D-Link 600 (cable).
                                            |                                   |
                                            |                                   |
                                       WiFi(1)                          WiFi (2)
    While my APE is just working perfect the D-Link doesn't. I can connect to my DLink Router though but the "Internet" somehow won't get passed through.
    Any help
    Thanks a lot

    The dlink probably does not have a bridge mode.. so you have to use WAN bypass.
    See this post for details.

    Or flash your DIR600 over to dd-wrt so you can use it in WAP mode.

  • Trouble with Maya 8.5 after installing Airport Extreme

    Installed Airport Extreme 802.11n a couple weeks ago - using OS 10.4 on an iMac and 10.3 on G4 Quicksilver.

    Is Autodesk license manager unable to recognize computer with network setup?
    Thanks for any help.

    Maya not being able to recognize the license dat file will not cause Maya to lock up or crash. Have you run a Maya crash log to confirm what is causing this? Since upgrading from Tiger to Leopard I also upgraded to Maya 2008 (don't know why Autodesk didn't call it 9.0..lol) from 8.5. I haven't experienced any system crashes on Leopard, even on the MacBook Pro (Core 2 Duo 2.33 GHz, 3 GB RAM, ATI X1600). Note: I'm also using the AEBS in the SOHO and no issues with the license server.

  • Using Time Machine with 3rd party drive connected to Airport Extreme

    In Snow Leopard, I connected a G-Tech drive to my Airport Extreme via USB and used that with Time Machine for backups.  It worked flawlessly most of the time, although my understanding is that this technique has not been supported by Apple since Snow Leopard was released.  Is anybody using this method in Lion?  If so, does it work OK?
    I got a little worried reading about the issues some folks have had doing Time Machine backups in Lion so instead of trying that method, I got another drive and connected it via FireWire to my MacBook Pro for backing up in Time Machine.  The first backup took a little over an hour.  The second one took just a few moments.  I do notice that my hard drive stays mounted on my desk top even when Time Machine is inactive.  Is this normal? 

    Lots of people do this, but it is not supported and there have been reports of data corruption even if things appeared to be working for quite some time.  The question you have to ask yourself is whether it is worth the risk.  This is a backup, after all.  An unreliable backup is worse than no backup (because you think you have one when you may not).
    What you have experienced with your external drive is all normal.  The first backup takes quite a while because it is both large and there are lots of small files to copy.  (Copying lots of small files is slower than copying a few large ones.)  Subsequent backups will usually be much faster.  One hour for the initial backup is actually very fast.  Finally, external drives remain mounted even when Time Machine is not using them, unlike network drives which are only kept mounted while the backup is active.

  • I'm having trouble with my Ellipsis Jetpack connecting to a Windows 8.1 computer

    Has anyone had any problems connecting the jetpack (Ellipsis) to the internet with a computer that is running Windows 8,1?  I was able to remove my password and it connected, but I'm leary about connecting without the password.  It connected beautifully with my laptop using Windows 7 and my android phone (as well as the Verizon salesman's phone) who hooked me up.  Any help would greatly be appreciated!  I spent 2-1/2 hours on the phone with HP and Verizon support at the same time and neither tech had an answer.

    Thank you for your answer, but my Ellipsis is a jet pack.  There is a tablet called Ellipsis, however, mine is a wireless jet pack.  I believe it is relatively new (since around Dec. 2013) give or take a few months. 
    I am trying to connect to the internet from my desktop computer running Windows 8.1 using my Ellipsis Jet Pack device.  My Ellipsis jet pack connected every device in the house except for the desktop.  Once I erased my password and tried getting on the internet via the jet pack and no password, my desktop computer accepted it and I was online.
    I've been reading about connectivity issues that 8.1 is having right now.  I have a feeling that it is the Windows 8.1 issue more so than the jet pack. 
    Thank you!

  • Anyone having trouble with IMac dropping internet connections? inter

    My IMac is dropping my internet connection?
    Any ideas or suggestions on what is causing this?
    george

    I too have this problem but I've had it for about 2 years.  We used to think it was because I was on wi-fi and I was getting interference.  I moved the modem closer and that didn't help.  Then my ISP kept telling me it was my Dlink modem so I chucked that modem out and went with my ISP's modem.  That didn't solve the problem but at least my ISP couldn't blame it on other equipment.   I then moved the modem right beside my iMac and I was still loosing the connection  while on wi-fi.  I got so fed up that I have hard wired my iMac right into the modem and it's still happening.  Ive had my cable company out here a zillion times trying to trouble shoot this.  They changed all of my cabling from the road to my house and from my house to the computer.  They gave me a new modem and then they gave me another new modem but a different brand.  I'm still dropping my internet connection every few minutes. 
    The one thing that I discovered with my provider is that I'm not actually loosing connection to the internet as they don't see my internet dropping at all.  It's as if the signal comes and goes on this iMac and when it goes, I'm left with my curser doing the whirley-bird until it reconnects to the net.  Usually takes 5 minutes or so but it eventually comes back.  My wi-fi is fine with my iPad and my iPhone but it wasn't with this iMac.  I've been on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion and I've had the same problem with all three OS's on this iMac. 
    I'm totally at a loss as to why this is happening.  It's very frustraging and makes it near impossible to use online banking or booking flights etc because I can't keep a connection long enough.
    Anybody have any brilliant suggestions to try?

  • Having trouble with social networks and connection issues

    My iPad won't load any pictures on facebooks website, or the app. It will load google pictures but on Facebook they come up as a blue question mark and it also won't let me log into intagram or snapchat, it says check your network connection. Also my app store won't load. Is there anyway to fix this? I restarted my iPad multiple times and cleared all cookies and data but it didn't help. I had a provisioning profile from an GBA emulator awhile back and  I deleted the emulator but not the profile. I recently tried to download  the emulator again and this is when problems started. I deleted the profile but nothing seems to work. I have an IPad 2, is there anyway to fix this without going to Apple? I'm not good with all this tech stuff

  • Having trouble with your iphone6 not connecting to your car? here is what worked for me

    Back up your phone!!!
    Go to Settings>General at the bottom of the screen hit “Reset.” On next screen select "Reset All Settings." This will reset your locked screen, your internet passwords, Touch ID & Passcode, your zoomed view, battery percentage, etc. You won’t  loose any apps or docs. Just go back and change them as you did when you first got the phone. Delete all the Bluetooth devices on both in your Car and on the iPhone (on the phone: go to Bluetooth>My Devices, click on the “i” at the right and click on "Forget This Device"). Shut down both the phone and the car. Restart the car and the phone. “Pair" your phone. Shut the car off and restart. Give it a few minutes to allow the car to update the phonebook.
    This worked like a gem.

    Agreed!!
    Same story......after waiting over 36 hours for activation, finally called 877-800-3701 AGAIN (probably the 4th or 5th time) and got an incredible CS person named Michelle who could not have been more helpful. She actually took the time to look at my account, saw that it was ready to activate, and went through all the steps to manually activate it. Whole process took about 45 minutes, but it was with someone from AT & T instead of waiting around all day for some magical email. Now, iPhone works like a charm and was worth the wait.
    So to all still waiting for activation, keep calling the 3701 number. And keep doing it until someone takes the time to help you. It really does work......

  • I am having trouble with my iPhone 4S connecting to my WiFi at my house, is there anything I can do?

    I have tried connecting to my WiFi network at my house and my iPhone 4S will not connect, it doesn't show up on the list of networks either. I have tried shutting it off for a couple of minutes and turning it back on my it doesn't work. What can I do?
    ~Dannie81

    Syncing an iPhone 4S running iOS 6.1.3 or earlier requires at least a G4 Mac running 10.5.8.
    Syncing an iPhone 4S running iOS 7 requires at least an Intel Mac running 10.6.8.
    If your computer can't be upgraded to the required OS version, buy a secondhand or refurbished one which can.

  • Parallels with Windows XP and connecting to Airport Extreme Wifi

    I would like to be able to go on the web on the Parallels side of my MacBookPro but can't seem to do it. Does anyone know the workflow in Parallels/Windows XP to connect that side of my laptop to my Wifi connection? I've tried Network Connections > Create New Connection, but it doesn't work. I also tried Control Panels > Wireless Network Setup, which allows me to select the name of my Airport Extreme to add a new computer to the network. However, when I click Next, I get Use a USB flash drive or Set up a network manually. It still doesn't let me connect the Windows side to the Internet via the Wifi connection, and I don't think the Wifi connection is working on that side. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Karen

    P.S. Under Network Connections > Details, it says

    LAN or High-Speed Internet
    Connected
    Parallels Network Adapter

    Hello Sue,
    I have an iPad 3, iPad Mini and iPhone 5S and they are all sluggish on capitalisation using shift keys. I hope that Apple will solve the problem because it is driving me crazy.
    I find using a Microsoft Surface and Windows 8 phone, which I also have, work as well as all the ios devices before the ios 7 upgrade.
    It has something to do with the length of time that you need to hold the shift key down. The shift key needs to be held longer than the letter key for the capitalisation to work. For some reason, this is a major change in the way we have learnt to touch type on computers. I am having to relearn how to type!

  • I'm having trouble with something that redirects Google search results when I use Firefox on my PC. It's called the 'going on earth' virus. Do you have a fix that could rectify the vulnerability in your software?

    I'm having trouble with a virus or something which affects Google search results when I use Firefox on my PC ...
    When I search a topic gives me pages of links as normal, but when I click on a link, the page is hijacked to a site called 'www.goingonearth.com' ...
    I've done a separate search and found that other users are affected, but there doesn't seem to be a clear-cut solution ... (Norton, McAfee and Kaspersky don't seem to be able to detect/fix it).
    I'd like to continue using the Firefox/Google combination (nb: the hijack virus also affects IE but not Safari) - do you have a patch/fix that could rectify the vulnerability in your software?
    thanks
