Just installed Mavericks for mac and can't print accurately.

I just installed Mavericks 10.9 on my iMac and now the printer colors are totally wrong as in not in the image!! I did contact Epson ( I have an Epson WF 3540) and we updated the driver. They said the problem is with the applications, ie. Photoshop and/or iPhoto. I did run the necessary utilities re ink and print head cleaning. Any suggestions?

Yes, I seem to have solved my initial problem but found another, I
can't to set the paper size. I often use the Custom Paper Size
dialogue. I'll keep updating my drivers and hope for the best. Epson
must be getting bombarded with complaints. Thank you for your help.

A few suggestions for you:
Try:
uninstall all HP utilities or other HP apps on your Mac
see if there is updated software on the HP website
go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners > Print
control-click on your printer in the column on the left
select "Reset Printing System..." and "reset" in the dialog that follows
Do a factory reset on your printer
go back to printers & scanners and it should see your printer and download a driver for it from Apple

Help

The two other posts are correct... so I'll just clarify. What's happening right now is your system is trying to boot into Windows in order to finish the installation. What you want to do is make it boot into OS X. As mende1 indicated, with your system off, hold down the Option key and continue to hold it while you turn the system on. You will eventually be presented with an option to select which partition you would like to boot from. Choose OS X. After you get into OS X, again, as mende1 indicated, change the Startup Disk to OS X. What this will do is cause your system to automatically boot into OS X when you restart it instead of you having to use the Option key when booting each time.
Relaunching BootCamp Assistant will allow you to remove your Windows installation and partition.

I just installed Maverick 10.9 and I'm not happy. Too many things not working. How can I get back to my OS 10.6.9?

If you have a backup, it is very easy to revert back to your previous system setup.
If you don't, then the downgrade is much harder to accomplish as it require a complete clean install of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
Before going down that laborious road! maybe you tell us what issues you are having.

I have just bought the new mac and can't set it up as my main computer for iTunes

I have just bought the new mac and have synced it with my ipod but the ipod is not the primary computoer for itunes.
My old computer is the primary one
I have synced my ipad but the apps did not transfer to my mac
any help would be appreciated
thx

You have me confused as to where the apps really are. You mention iPod and mention that the iPod isn't your primary computer. Obviously, it can't be - its an iPod. I'm not trying to be a jerk - I just dont understand what that means.
The you say that the old computer is the primary computer for iTunes. That makes more sense. Anyway, you could have transferred the iTunes library from the old computer to the new Mac, but I assume that you did not realize that.
So ... If the apps are on your iPad - but did not transfer to iTunes when you synced the iPad with the new Mac - transfer Purchases. Connect the iPad to the Mac, launch iTunes, right click on the iPad name on the left and select Transfer Purchases. That will put the apps in iTunes on the Mac.
Movies cannot be downloaded again for free because Apple does not have an agreement with the movie studios to allow for that. At least that is how I understand the way that works.

I just got my first mac and can anyone tell me how to change my address book to look like an actual book?

Just got my first Mac and cant find how to change the appearance of my address book. Can anyone help?

Check out the built-in Address Book Help guide on your Mac (in Address Book, choose Address Book Help from the Help menu. I dont think you can change the way the address book looks in terms of changing its appearance to look more book like, but I could be wrong. I checked out a few google searches and did not find anything that stated how to do what you are asking. If you find you cant change it to your desired specifications, you can always make the suggestion to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

Just installed OS X updates and can no longer boot into Bootcamp

Just installed the latest updates for OS X Yosemite and now I can't boot to my Bootcamp partition. It doesn't show up in Startup Disks and it's not an option when booting while holding Option. The partition still shows up in Disk Utility but it no longer says BOOTCAMP, it now says disk04s. Is this fixable? I just wrote some data to that partition last night that I really don't want to lose and it hasn't yet been backed up. Thank you.

OS Maverick for Mac and Adobe CS4 compatibility and problem fixes

Is Adobe CS4 Creative Suite which includes Illustrator, Photoshop, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, Bridge, etc.
compatible with OS Maverick upgrade for Mac? I want to upgrade my Mac Book Pro.

It's not per se 100% compatible, but many people run it still. The biggest hurdle will be re-configuring your OSX so legacy apps don't bump into permission issues with user folders such as Library. Also it seems to be impossible to produce PDFs under certain conditions and CS4 apps don't recognize most modern printers.

I just installed the newest iTunes and can't see any of my songs

I installed itunes, I then directed iTunes to my library. After a wait for my music to be prosessed. Nothing has changed, I can't see my music. I can see and play my music in playlists, Yet I still can't see it anywhere else. I plugged my iPhone in and I see the eject button but don't get anything else!

you click on your ipod in the top right and at the bottom left it should say sync and just click it anfd it will sync your music

Just installed Mavericks on iMac and Messages not working properly

I just upgraded my iMac to OS X 10.9. Most everything is okay but Messages is acting weird. All the messages from one person, who has an iPhone and Messages now show up in green bubbles, which signifies SMS. Before the upgrade, they all showed correctly. They appear correctly on my new iPad which I just set up yesterday, on my iPhone (both running iOS 7) and on my MacBook Air which is still running OS X 10.8. I tried it with other people and some have the regular light grey bubble and one has a purple bubble. This is only happing on the just upgraded OS X 10.0 Now I saw this on MacRumors and it is obvious this happens to others. This is the supposed cause..
"In iMessage settings there are options to change the colors. With Mavericks they let you choose your own color that you want people to see, but it randomly picks one for you from the start, until you change it. Click on the "viewing" tab in preferences and you can change the sender's color back to clear, or whatever you want it to be."
I checked and my iMac is set to Automatic. Is this what others are seeing?

Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again.

My iPod is formatted for Mac and can not get Windows iTunes to recognize it. How do I format it for Windows?

I need serious help! I can not seem to restore my iPod to Windows as it is in MAC format. The windows computer "dings" when plugged in, but is not recognized in iTunes or computer. I have no problem when it is plugged into my MAC!!! PLEASE HELP, this is frustrating!

Hey KitKattz44,
Thanks for the question. The following resource may help to resolve your issue:
iPod: How to determine your iPod's disk format
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1335
You cannot use an iPod whose disk is configured for Macintosh on a Windows-compatible computer. However, you can restore the iPod disk to use it with a Windows-compatible computer. To do this, see "Restoring iPod to factory settings." While a Windows formatted iPod may work on a Mac, Apple supports this configuration only with iPod shuffle.
Thanks,
Matt M.
