Installing Brother DL-2270DW on Mac OSX 10.7.2

Hi,
I'm desperately trying to install my new Brother DL-2270DW on my Macbook Pro running 10.7.2. Problem is that there is no driver for this. Instead you can download a file from Brother that should put a package icon xxxx.pkg file to the desktop. Only, it does not.
Then I'm told to extract the downloaded xxxxx.dmg file manually with the Disk Utility, and thereby create the xxxxx.pkg file to be installed. Only it does not create this file, it creates a cdr-file. And nothing happens when you run this file.
Can anyone out there please, please help me?? Thanks!!

Hi Christina_F,
Follow these steps and then try installing the application:
1. In the Finder, choose "Go" from the menubar and then select "Utilities". A new Finder window should open.
2. Locate and run Activity Monitor.
This will provide a listing of all running processes on your Mac.
3. Look for ShellExtLoader in the list. Select it and quit the process.
Reinstall the software from the disc.
Do let us know if you continue to face issues installing.
Thanks

    I just installed the new firefox for Mac OSX 10.6.8 and when I select an image on a site (right click and copy) and paste in Photoshop 5.5, the image lightens. It does not do this in Safari.

    Firefox, Safari, and PhotoShop each handle embedded color profiles differently. For an add-on that makes it easier to experiment with Firefox's color management options, you might be interested in: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-management/ Color Management :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

    You'll have to upgrade your operating system first.
    Most, if not all, Cloud apps require at least OS X 10.7.

  • I installed Adobe Reader to my Mac OSX 10.8... website I need it for says no.

    I installed Adobe Reader to my Mac osx 10.8. It installed, I clicked "FINISHED".  When I go back to the education website that I needed it for it tells me I need to agree to the Adobe licsencing agreement and reopen the browser. How do I agree to the licsensing agreement?? It never came up for me to do that. I tried to re-install but it just tells me I already have it installed.
    Thanks

    You need to open Adobe Reader by itself (not in the browser), then accept the EULA.

  • How can I download a driver for a Brother printer HL2270DW for Mac OSX 10.9.1?

    I recently purchased a Brother printer HL2270DW and am running Mac OSX 10.9.1.  The brother website has a download available, but in the process of adding the printer I get the error message that "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."  Any ideas?

    Just found a solution which involves resetting the printer settings:
    To Reset the Printer Setting:
    1) Open "System Preferences"
    2) Select the "Print & Scan" pane
    3) Right click (or control click) anywhere in the "Printers" window (in the white space below any of your existing printers)
    4) Select "Reset Printing System..."
    That will reset the printing settings, and should happen immediately. You'll know if it worked because any existing printers you had previously set up will disappear from your printers list. Once the system has been reset, click on the "Add printer" button and add the printer that you're trying to add.
    As any other printers you had previously added are deleted you'll have to add them again.
    Hope that helps

  • I cannot install flash player on my MAC - (osx 10.8.4) - it downloads 50%, then clicks to "finish"

    I cannot install flash player on my Mac - running OSX 10.8.4 and Safari 6.0.5.  The progress bar show is as  downloading to 50%, then converts to "installing" and immediately goes to 100% and says it's installed. But it's not.  I get another Adobe Flash installer icon on my desktop instead.  Help!

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    First, remove Adobe Flash Player completely using Flash Player uninstaller for MAC : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html
    Download offline installer for Adobe Flash Player (MAC) from here : http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg
    Once the file is downloaded, run the installer

  • How to install windows support software without mac OSX install cd?

    I want to install windows 7 on my macbook pro 10.6.8 via bootcamp. I have a windows 7 install cd and I havn't got past the stage of installing the windows support software. I lost my mac osx install cd a long time ago so I can't install the software that way, but if i try and download the support software from bootcamp, I keep getting a notification that the windows support software is unavailable. What should I do?

    Call Apple for replacement disks.  The Boot Camp drivers for OSX 10.6 and earlier were not available as a download.  Or upgrade to Lion, which you do download the Boot Camp 4 drivers.

  • Minecraft Won't Launch Because of a Java or Root Certificate Error I Started Having When I Put The Install Disk in And Downloaded Mac OSX Snow Leopard

    I need help. I recently tried opening Minecraft after re-installing Mac OSX Snow Leopard with the Mac OSX Install DvD and now every time I try to open the internet these stupid certificate errors come up and Minecraft says it can't launch because of a broken/missing root certificate

    Hello Shelby,
    Thank you so much for the details regarding the issue you are experiencing with the Snow Leopard installation.  I recommend following these steps if you are having trouble installing Snow Leopard:
    The installation wasn’t successful
    If you were unable to install Mac OS X, try the following:
    Disconnect any external devices you don’t need during installation.
    Remove any cards from manufacturers other than Apple.
    Try installing Mac OS X again.
    If you were unable to install Mac OS X again, choose Utilities > Disk Utility. Select the disk on which you want to install, click First Aid, and then click Repair Disk. After repairing any problems, quit Disk Utility and then click Continue to try installing again.
    If you’re still unable to install Mac OS X, try erasing the disk before installing Mac OS X. Before you erase your disk, try copying your files to an external disk. When you’re ready to erase and reinstall Mac OS X, follow the instructions in the “Restoring your computer to factory settings” section of this document.
    I found this on page 7 of the Snow Leopard Installation Instructions:
    Snow Leopard Installation Instructions

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Firefox cannot install the updates on my Mac OSX Lion

    Firefox tells me there is an update. I click install, but it just sticks at the downloading screen (for hours if I let it) and cannot download. This has been happening ever since I changed to Mac OSX Lion on the new MacBook Air.

    Download from here and install it:

  • Will Adobe Illustrator 10 install and run on the Mac OSX Snow Leopard system?

    Hello,
    I am trying to find out if Adobe Illustrator version 10 will install and run  on the Mac Snow Leopard system.  Will it?
    Also,  Will Adobe Photoshop 7 (last photoshop version before Adobe CS) run on the Mac Snow Leopard system?
    I know that many older versions of Adobe software for Mac will not work on OSX because of a change in the CPU designs. 
    Thank you.

    I don't think so. Both of them should not work on MAC Snow Leapord.

  • Install extensions all users silently - Mac OsX

    Hello,
    In our organization we need to customize Firefox the same way for every single user meaning that from time to time it's needed to add one or more extras for everyone. Every time we need to do this we have to install individually the extra in every user.
    What i need is a way to silently deploy the xpi file. The OS from the computers is Mac OsX Yosemite and the firefox version is 36.0.1 (we need to stick to this version).
    Thanks in advance,
    Gonçalo Catarino

    Hey there!
    I'm not sure if you are aware, but mozilla makes a version of Firefox just for deploying in enterprises and organizations. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/
    I'd suggest checking it out. Also, there is a very helpful mailing list that can assist you with deployment questions.

  • Help: Tried using disk install to erase and reinstall mac osx

    Could someone please help me. I just bought a second hand macbook pro off someone and upon recieving it realised they hadn't erased everything and their user account was still set up and active as administrator. This means i'll have issues down the track doing updates etc.
    I googled how to hard reset the computer to start from scratch and followed steps. Basically they were
    1. Restart computer whilst holding down the command and r buttons (which I did)
    2. When the wifi connection box comes up connect to reliable wifi (done)
    3. Then it said go into the disk utility and erase the mac os extended disk (the problem here is 1. the steps didnt specify that it should be the macintosh HD disk erased and 2. It should be the mac os extended (journaled) version, i've just fogured this out after a lot more searching as to why the reinstall of mac OSX wouldn't then work)
    now i'm freaking out that i've done irreperable damage given that the mac OSX base system (mac OS extended (non-journaled)) has been erased. Can anyone please tell me if this can be reinstalled? Or what I should do next?

    whereas in the macintosh HD partition nothing has been greyed out (so the option to erase is there, which im assuming means it hasn't been erased)
    (capacity: 319.73GB, available: 319.3 GB, used 425MB).
    Does this help explain the situation?
    That does help. The reason why the Macintosh HD partition is the only one where nothing is greyed out is that that's where your new OS X installation should be targeted (note that it's the only partition with room for a full OS X installation as well as your own files and applications). The option to erase is available in case you want to, for some reason, erase it again. Remember, you're booting from the Recovery HD and that's a partition on your HD too. You aren't allowed to erase the partition you booted from (hence, it's greyed out), and, since it's normally hidden, as are others, such as the EFI, it shouldn't be messed with anyway.
