Macbook osx does not see the printer on my xp pc

After hours I managed to connect my macbook to my PC (wireless ethernet network)and share folders bothways. But now I have another obstacle to overcome. I cannot print from macbook to a canon ip8500 printer connected (via USB) to my PC (Xp pro sp2). I followed the instructions of ifelix but my macbook does not recognize the printer at all.
Any tips? Looking forward to your help.

False alarm! My router assigns the first IP address to the computer I first open. And this time I first opened the Mac. Then everything went wrong. Now I know where to look for!

  • Have Photoshop Elements 12, recently purchased Epson Workforce WF-7620 Printer/scanner , cannot import scanned pictures into Photoshop, does not see the Printer/scanner.

    How can I get my Photoshop Elements 12 to import scanned images from my Epson Workforce WF-7620 ?. The program does not recognise the Priner/scanner.

    Is it trying to get you to join photoshop.com? The easiest way around that is not to use the welcome screen. Go into the program files and make direct shortcuts for the organizer and/or editor and start PSE that way from now on. Photoshop.com is dead and gone so the welcome screen will hang up trying to connect to something that no longer exists.

  • Bought a new Mac Pro, purchased a Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter, then hooked up Epson Stylus Photo R2400 printer but the system preferences does not see the printer. Started, restarted, hit the " " to add a  printer but no go.

    How to connect via Firewire/Thunderbolt adapter an Epson Stylus Photo R2400 printer to a new Mac Pro

    When you switch from USB to FireWire, you have essentially installed a new (i.e., different) Printer.
    In the Add-a-Printer dialog, delete[-] the existing Printer queue which is set up for USB. Then, with the Printer connected via FireWire, Add [+] a new Printer queue and it should set it up correctly this time.
    To go back to USB, you would have to delete and re-add in a similar fashion later.

  • Macbook does not see wireless printer

    My laserjet 1102w is connected to an airport extreme and I can print wirelessly from a windows 7 pc.
    However, my Macbook Pro does not see the wireless printer. I can print though if I connect the printer directly via USB.
    When trying to add a printer via the '+'button in Finder > Printer & Fax there is no response and nothing to connect to.
    Anyone knows how to resolve this ?

    Hi,
    Be sure to enable Wireless Direct as listed within Steps one below, as well locate the display name as listed:

    Once you are done click the WiFi icon on your Mac and select Join Other Network.
    Click on Show Networks and the Wireless Direct network should be listed there.

    OK great info!
    I found 2 possible ethernet to USB adapters:
    By "Plugable":  USB 2.0 to ethernet LAN wired network adapter - seems this will work, but I'll contact Plugable.
    2. Apple USB Ethernet Adapter
    Easily connect your MacBook Air computer to an Ethernet network with the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter. Small and light, it connects to the USB 2.0 port of your MacBook Air and provides an RJ-45 connector that supports 10/100BASE-T performance.  BUT NOT SURE IF THIS WILL WORK ON ANYTHING BUT a MacBook Air…
    One person commented: 
    This little gem used to be the device of choice for adding a second Ethernet interface to a Mac Mini Server and I'd been using one that way for about a year. After doing a software update to 10.6.6 it stopped working. Forewarned is forearmed – it appears that Apple is finally enforcing the MacBook Air system requirement.
    Thanks for any additional comments.

  • I have a MacBook Pro running 10.7.2.  I am trying to import photos from my older Canon EOS-1D for the first time since my OS upgrade.  iPhoto does not see the camera nor does Image Capture.  IC says there is not a camera connected.  Cable is known good.

    If neither iPhoto not IC can seethe card it might suggest an issue with the card or the ports on the camera/mac.
    Try reformat the card, change the ports and/or use a USB Card Reader.

    Go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer and check to see if they have released an updated driver for your particular model.

  • Adobe Lightroom on MacBook Pro does not see my iphoto library

    Adobe Lightroom on MacBook Pro does not see my "iphoto library"

    Hello.
    The problem is that the iPhoto library is inside of iPhoto. Lightroom won't let you select it because it's basically a shortcut to iPhoto. Try exporting the images you need or all of them, depending on what you need.

  • Macbook Pro does not see Fast Ethernet but works fine with Gigabit Ethernet

    Hi to everybody,
      It is some time I have a problem connecting my unibody Macbook Pro (late 2008) to the ethernet cables in my office. There are 16 wall jacks in the lab, of which 13 are Fast Ethernet (100 Mbit/s) and 3 are Gigabit Ethernet. No matter what I do, if I connect to the 100 Mbit/s jacks, my Macbook does not see the connection and keeps saying "Cable unplugged". If I switch to a Gigabit jack, then a connection is quickly established.
    I have spent one whole afternoon debugging. Here is what I did:
    My computer dual boots Mac OS X and Linux. No matter which operating system I use, the problem is the same.
    Using different Cat.5 cables does not change the situation (I tried three of them.)
    All the 13 Fast Ethernet jacks do not work.
    All the 3 Gigabit jacks work smoothly.
    What puzzles me is that my computer happly uses the newest technology (Gigabit ethernet) but has problems with the oldest one. Has somebody else experienced the same problem?

    After a lot of struggle, I discovered that other people had this very issue as well. It seems that the cause is a faulty Realtek chip used in the ethernet cards of some MacBooks and other brands. There is apparently no way to fix this: I solved my problems by buying a Gigabit Ethernet switch which I connected to the Fast Ethernet wall jack. (Another option might be to use a Ethernet-to-USB adapter - but I did not try this as I have no adapter of this kind.)

  • MacBook Air does not See a Plantronics Voyager Pro bluetooth headset

    My MacBook Air does not "see" my Plantronics Voyager Pro + bluetooth headset as a discoverable bluetooth asset.  I have read on Apple and Plantronics forums that these two devices should be compatible, but so far no luck.  Anybody have any experience with this situation?

    Turns out the Voyager Pro Bluetooth headset failed...exchanging it for a new one and should be GTG.  Thanks.
