Installing software for a new HP 5530 printer, the utility quit, Apple notified.  What now?

I have Yosemite on my iMac and was installing software for a new HP 5530 printer. Message says Utility quit unexpectedly. Apple has been Notified.  What do I do now?

Thanks you all so much. It's great to know there are people interested in being helpful and sharing their knowledge.  Turned out that some scanner functions worked, but scan to computer did not.The installation of the HP Utility was somehow originally messed up, and what it took was a brief UNPLUG of my iMac (restart or shutdown did not do it), followed by uninstall and reinstall.  HP actually called me  today after a chat session was cut off yesterday and asked if I would like to continue!  Good help on both sides.

  • Mac Pro stuck on gray screen after installing software for a new keyboard

    I am having a huge issue with my very important work computer! For a few weeks, my Mac has been freezing on the gray screen during start up. Since I had two external hard drives plugged in, I would unplug one of them and the Mac would always restart correctly once one was unplugged. Well today I was installing software for a new keyboard and the mac prompted me to restart. Once I restarted, the gray screen came up again and no matter what I did it would not start up correctly again. I tried unplugging everything except the keyboard and monitor and nothing works. I tried ejecting the crash-causing CD with the keyboard using all of the commands I found on this forum board and nothing worked. I saw forums about manually ejecting the CD by pushing a pin-hole but I cannot find that pinhole anywhere! Then again, the CD might not even be the problem but since the computer gave me the gray screen of death right after using the CD I am thinking that it is the problem. I use this computer for editing a TV show and creating websites so there is a ton of files on it and I need to get it up and running again ASAP. Any suggestions would be appreciated and I am sure by now you can tell that I am not a Mac expert so please dumb it down for me. Thank you!!

    I would start by breaking your thoughts and sentences out from one long paragraph.
    Start at the basics.
    Always have backups.
    One at least that is a spare boot system you can use.
    Clone your system. SuperDuper does a great job for only $29
    Boot from another hard drive or last OS X DVD
    Repair your drive with Apple Disk Utility along with 3rd party disk maintenance and repair
    Hold Option key until the boot manager, then hold mouse to open optical drive.
    You can hold mouse on startup and it will eject also.
    Hold and continue to hold Shift key during startup to repair the boot drive in minimal fashion.
    What device and driver? hint: never use CD, just go online as the CD is usually out of date anyway.
    Fill in Mac OS X version and more about hardware would help in posts and in your profile signature.

    Many Thanks, Kurt.
    I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
    I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …
    You have made an old man very happy and saved me from worrying that senile decay had suddenly set in. (I was 70 last week so you might understand the situation from that.)

  • HT201465 I have installed software for a HP Deskjet 1510 printer but it will not print

    I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 and I just purchased a HP Deskjet 1510 all-in-one printer.  I have installed the software and my computer is picking up the printer but it will not print.  I have restarted the computer and it still will not print.

  • Finding and installing software for samsung printer

    Hello.  I am a new mac user and still learning, beginning to get frustrated...I am trying to install software for my older but perfectly functioning Samsung printer, ML-1430.  I had the orginial software cd which would not work, was not supported I guess.  My printer is not listed when I search for the software.  I just updated the software on my macbook pro, so it is presently OS X 10.8.5.  If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. I am really hoping I can use my printer, can't afford to buy a new one and it works so well.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    After searching around, it would seem that they do not supprt that device any longer. (This is not all that un common these dats unfortunatly).
    But you can try contacting Samsung here and see if they will offer any support:

  • Cannot install software for printer m521dn

    Hello!
    I have a problem, trying to install software for HP lj pro m521dn. Tried to use both Full Solution and basic print and scan drivers installer. OS is Win7 enterprise x64. Connection with printer is network. When installing, progress bar reaches 14% and reporting "Fatal error don't allows you to use this programm. Press OK to abort" (personal translate from russian, original message is "Фатальная ошибка не позволяет использовать продукт. Нажмите да чтобы выполнить отмену"). This trouble occures on multiple PC's, but not on all of them (average on 4 of 7). The only solution I found is full reinstallation of OS and installing software on fresh Windows without any drivers installed, except drivers for network card. Can you tell me something useful about this trouble?
    P.S. Sorry for my bad English.

    Hi @Ranlom 
    I suspect your question would be better answered in the HP Enterprise Business Community, as your HP Printer is a commercial model.
     
    My technical expertise is with consumer products and software, I am sure the commercial folks would be happy to help if you re-post your question for them to answer. The HP Enterprise Business Community is an HP Forum designed for the Commercial and Enterprise customers to help one another. I am sure you will find some HP folks there to help too.
     
    Click here to view the Printing and Digital Imaging. When the page opens you will see the option to 'Log in' or 'Register Now' on the right. The commercial forums are separate from the consumer boards, thus you will need to register if you don't already have a commercial account.
     
    You may find the HP LaserJet Pro M521 Multifunction Printer series page helpful while you wait for somebody in the commercial Forum to respond to your inquiry.
     
    Best of luck.

  • Can not install software for the camera on my G10

    Hello
    New poster today seems my CD/DVD media drive has stopped working, tried to install software for new camera, just getting blue screen and a small flashing disc, seems there is no power in drive.
    Any advice welcome only had machine since late June 2005.Am I doing something wrong or does it sound like a service problem
    THANK YOU!
    JIM.

    Hi
    Well like xaver said it could be a hardware problem but before you contact the ASP try to remove the drive from the device manager. After new reboot the OS should recognizes the driver again. Maybe this procedure will help you to solve this problem. But if not, please contact the service partner
    Bye

    If it's the "Templates for Numbers Pro" on the Mac App Store then you need OSX 10.7 or later.  You'll need iWork '09 or later.
    It looks as if you want to use the iOS version of the same templates then you will need the latest Numbers there.  And if you use the latest Numbers there and want to sync to the Mac, you'll need to have Mavericks and Numbers 3.

    Which updates were done?
    Have you checked and made sure your permissions are correct? This is done with Disk Utility, which is found in the Utility folder in Applications. At the same time Verify the drive, as an added measure.
    Also try deleting the following preference file com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    It will be replaced by the system when necessary.
    If it still is not correct, I would down load the 10.4.11 combo update, repair permissions again, then install the combo update.
