Mac has stopped recognising canon mp600 printer

After 2 months of working without a problem, my imac kept telling my printer canon mp 600 was offline. 
Foolishly thought I should try to reinstall and deleted it. Now despite using original disc an downloading drivers still cannot get mac to install printer.  help

You could try resetting the printing system.
System Preferences>Print & Scan, Control+Click or right click on a printer on the left (or in the space where printers are normally listed) and select 'reset printing system'. Any printers listed will need to be added again.

  • My mac, running mavericks, has stopped recognising wifi devices, including time capsule and printer. Wifi Broadband still works. How do I fix this?

    Just over a week ago I found my mac would not recognise my wifi printer and attempts to add it again have been fruitless. I then received notification from time machine that my backups to Time Capsule have failed. The last back-up was about the time the printer problem occured. It appears that the mac no longer recognises the wifi devices. I am not aware of any software updates at that time. Has anyone experienced this, and if so what is the fix? Thanks in advance

    Restart your router.
    Then reset your Time Capsule > Resetting an AirPort base station
    Then restart your Mac.
    See if that makes a difference.

  • My mac mail has stopped recognising my Virginmedia passwords.

    My mac mail has stopped recognising my Virginmedia passwords.  Virgin have tried to resolve the issue and created new passwords.  However, all are rejected by the Apple servers even though there is no problem with Virgin web mail.  What can I do?

    Try going to Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access and delete the password from there. While there, run Keychain  First Aid.

  • Installing Canon MP600 printer

    Cannot install Canon MP600 printer. I've cleared out all the old Canon software, then downloaded all latest drivers form Canon, but when I try to add the printer I get message
    "An error occurred while trying to add the selected printer.
    successful-ok-conflicting-attributes"
    Any ideas how to resolve this?

    My mp600 installed perfect. If you have the cd that came with it, I just installed the included drivers and all went fine. Try trashing all the canon software again. Search with spotlight to see if any other canon programs are in folders elsewhere and trash them too. Then try reinstalling again. Even without installing the drivers, your mac should recognize and make usable the mp600 (it just has less print settings than the actual canon driver).

  • My powerbook G4 has stopped recognising the battery, why might this be and what can I do?

    Hi There, after  knock my powerbook g4 has stopped recognising the battery, why might this be and what might I do?

    What does "after knock my powerbook..." mean? Did it fall on the floor or ?
    First, reset the PMU. That can often fix power-related glitches.  If that doesn't do it, you can try a PRAM reset:
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    If one of those two steps doesn't change anything, do you have another working battery you can substitute?

  • Photoshop Elements 9 Printer Driver Problems with Canon MP600 printer

    I'm having problems using my Canon MP600 printer with Photoshop Elements 9 with regard to the paper allocation. The MP600 has 2 paper trays and for some reason when using Elements it prefers you to use the top loading (auto sheet feeder)  method all the time.  For space reasons  I need to use the bottom cassette. When you initially go into the settings for the printer within elements you can choose the cassette and paper type etc no problem and make a print. When you go back in to do another print it changes the setting back to auto sheet feeder so you have to change it back again which is winding me up!  I have got the latest drivers for the printer and they are set up to how I would like the printer to work but Elements changes some of those settings for some reason. Does anyone know a way of fixing this please ?? When I'm not in Photoshop if I go to print something from the web it performs perfectly so I can only assume its Elements thats changing the settings. 
    Also when I print small thumbnail sized pictures on an A4 sheet of paper to test what the photo colour will look like when I go back into the print menu it puts the thumnail picture back in the center of the sheet of A4 rather than leaving it where it was, so then you have to put in the top and sideways measurements again to carry on ! The last version of Photoshop I had never did that. Does anyone know had to solve that problem ?? Any thoughts on the above problems would be gratefully recieved !

    Thank you for your suggestions. I downloaded a more recent version of Twain, but this didn't help. I also tried closing and opening Photo Shop and restarting my computer without success. Reinstalling Photo Shop sounds like a very promising solution, but I'm  not sure I will do it. In the meantime I can scan items using a printer program. These scans open in Photo Shop. It is an extra step.

  • How can I get my Canon MP600 printer to print and scan after upgrading to Mavericks?

    I recently upgraded to Mavericks and the first thing I discovered was that my Canon MP600 printer would not scan.  Checking online I find that others have had the same experience.  Now it won't print either.  Anyone know what can be done to resolve this?

    This has been a major pain in the *** for me! I have trawled too many online discussions and forum threads on this only to find no real answers that work. In the end I found some software called VueScan which although cost me $40, has now allowed me to scan from my MP600. Check it out at http://www.hamrick.com/

  • My Mac has stopped receiving mail. Mail is still coming through to my iPhone and my wife's iPad but is not appearing on my mac. I have mail from today on the phone but nothing newer than 18 Feb on the Mac. I have not touched any settings. Can anyone adv

    My Mac has stopped receiving mail. I have a mac.com address. Mail is still coming through to my iphone and my wife's ipad but nothing is coming through to my imac.I have mail from half an hour ago on the phone but nothing newer than 18 Feb on the mac. Everythng was working fine until recently and I have not touched any settings! Can anyone help?

    So I tried something else recently and it seems to have fixed the issue. My mail is now getting new mail again and refreshing after waking from sleep without having to restart mail. Give it a try and hopefully it will help you too.
    First, make sure your Mailbox List is visible (Shift + Control + M). Then select all of your inboxes, mailboxes, and folders (not just the root folder for nested folders, make sure to select them all). Then under the "Mailbox" menu, select "Rebuild."
    It may take a while to rebuild them all if you have a lot, but like I said it seems to have done the trick for me. I hope that proves to be more of a long-term solution.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • My imac has stopped recognising my external HD

    my imac has stopped recognising my external HD connected by USB.  My macbook can read it.  Is there some way of reset on the USB?

    I would recommend doing the following two steps, as explained by our Expert User "rkaufmann87":
    iMac SMC and PRAM reset:
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
      PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    Hope this helps
