MacBook Pro i7 to Epson C88 fail

Here's the error message, even after new drivers dated 6/30/2010...
/System/Library/Printers/Libraries/PrintJobMgr/Contents/MacOS/PrintJobMgr failed
What to do???

Mark, did you delete and re-add the printer after applying the update? The following thread has the same problem:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10957753&#10957753
and that was the solution.
This thread also had that problem, and resetting the print system - deleting the printer and removing the prefs files - solved the problem:

I hope these help.

    I connect my macbook pro to an Epson wireless projector. The macbook can see the projector wirelessly and the image on the macbook is displayed on the projector. However on system ref., the arrangement tab does not show and thus cannot have multiple view.
    I am trying to project Pro Presenter on the Epson projector such that I have the detail screen on the macbook and only the screen I want people to see on the projector display. This has not been possible because the arrangement tab on the Display section of the System Preference is not showing. If i tried to search for the arangement, it comes back with the message that there is not other source detected, hence the arrangement tab is not showing.
    I have also tried to connect the Epson directly to the Macbook but it still the same result, so its not because it is a wireless connection. Can someone advise me jhow to go around this problem. I have used windows before and it is very easy to extend ptojection on windows, but this system seems to be frustrating to me.
    Thanks,

    Any guidance would be very appreciated! My little MacBook has been a very good machine up until recently.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Macbook pro hard drive apple claimed 'failed', has changed it's tune. BUT....

    This is a very looooong story, but here's the short version of it (I swear). I can add more details as needed. And there is definitely a question at the end.
    And I should preface this by saying I am a novice computer user, and really don't understand how hard drives, or permissions, or any of that stuff works.
    1. Two weeks ago my mid 2011 17" top-of-the-line macbook pro wouldn't wake from sleep upon opening from clamshell mode (familiar story to many)
    2. Did a hard shut down using power button
    3. Powered back up and got spinny rainbow no matter what I clicked. Took 10 minutes for any single action to respond, even opening text edit.
    4. Could not force quit, could not restart, system eventually froze
    5. Did another hard shut down
    6. System would then NOT boot normally
    7. Booting in safe mode showed invalid node errors
    8. Was able to get the OS to work, was preparing to do a backup, and in a "smack my head later" move, I closed the lid not thinking, when I went to the other room to get something to drink (had I know what was to come, that drink would have been a double gin & tonic). MBP not wake up again. Again- hard shut down.
    9. This time would not boot at all- even in safe mode, even running repair disk permissions on screen while booting. Would get to the end of booting and just die- not start, not finish, nothing.
    10. Brought to apple genius bar. They confirmed the hard drive had failed. They replaced hard drive for free (with the exact same model and make of drive!! TOSHIBA MK7559GSFX. Thanks for instilling more confidence apple!!)
    11. I brought my failed drive home and swapped it out with the drive in my 2008 15" macbook pro, which is where it has been living since then.
    12. Fired it up in target disk mode with my iMac, and the drive never appeared as an external drive/device. Tried this multiple times after multiple restarts
    13. Booted the 15" mbp to Lion's 'over the air' recovery, and was able to get disk utility open that way
    14. Will NOT boot from the drive (get the apple logo, the spinny circle and the bar that never progresses, no matter how many hours/days I leave it for)
    In the past week I have:
    used DiskWarrior (says drive is damaged and can't be repaired)
    used Data Rescue 3 (which I was getting error messages with too but now is telling me it can't do anything because the drive is the bootable drive, and not an external (presumably because it's in the machine?)
    In Disk Utility I have verified permissions, repaired permissions, verified disk and repaired disk. They all report errors, including repair disk, which tells me the drive is damaged and can't be repaired. (I get it, I have a bad hardware problem)
    booted from Lion-installed external travel drive, to try and have the drive be recognized
    attempted to run Drive Genuis 3 with no success
    attempted to create a new image using both disk utility and one of my software programs (don't remember which) with no success
    attempted to restore disk image using disk utiltity with no success
    am now running Stellar Phoenix 'recover lost volumes' with what appears to be success- it has found 5 lost volumes, but appears to be only 1/15th of the way done after about 24 hours. I'll let it run intil it's done- however long that may be. I have no idea what happens when it ends.
    Now, here is where the story gets interesting.
    For 5 days the drive would not only not boot, but it wouldn't mount either. It just didn't exist. There was no information on the drive in disk utility, and I couldn't access it no matter what mode I chose.
    BUT THEN, sometime shortly after hitting 'repair disk' about 12 times (getting failure messages each time), it mounted. Wahoo!
    Not only did it mount, but it has been mounting reliablibly each time after many restarts, using an external drive loaded with Lion as the boot drive.
    AND, now the drive's S.M.A.R.T. status says it's verified- both on the main Toshiba drive and the volume that contains my user account. It also shows the correct GB of data on the volume: 316.73 GB.
    I can also run verfiy permissions, which completed successfully.
    AND, I was able to click on the volume name (Louise. My iMac's name is Thelma. They work great together, LOL), and see the contents on the drive!
    First, when I opened the applications folder, it showed it as empty. But then I left it alone for about 5-10 minutes, and suddenly all of my apps appeared in the folder. Awesome!! There were a few in there I didn't have on my iMac, and didn't purchase through the app store, so I backed those up right away to another external hard drive I had plugged in.
    This was surprising and encouraging until I got to my user folder- 'jamie'.
    I opened it and it too shows as being empty. Zero kb. Left it alone for a long time, but sadly no files appeared. This was a few days ago- still no files appearing. 
    To make this clear- my main user folder- called 'jamie'-  says 'zero kb', 0 items. This is the folder that houses all of my documents and image files.
    BUT, disk utility, and Stellar Phoenix, and Drive Genuis 3 all are reading 'Louise' and telling me the data is there- 316.73 GB worth. I just can't see it.
    So I realized this may be a problem with permissions because I am using a new- different- user account. I was also thinking that if I could show hidden files, I might be able to see something in the folder that might help. So I downloaded TinkerTool and selected 'show hidden and system files'. No dice, still empty. Then I right-clicked on my user folder to get info and under 'sharing and permissions', the users, and the settings at the bottom are greyed out and I can't change anything.
    In system preferences, the user for the failed drive does not show at all, and when I try to add it by using the same name and password, it tells me the user already exists.
    Now I'm stumped. I feel like I've made progress and am getting close to getting the contents, but not sure what to do next, or if I'm fighting a losing battle.
    Here is what I am doing now:
    I am going to let Stellar Phoenix finish finding lost volumes, because it's the only app that seems to be doing anything.
    I purchased an external drive enclosure from amazon (this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00655YT9C/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00), which I will be receiving on Monday.
    I'll pull the drive out of the 15" mbp and put it in the new external enclosure and will then try to run Data Recovery 3 on the drive
    If that's unsuccessful, I'll try DiskWarrior again, and/or maybe one of the other software programs
    And then if those don't work I guess I'm done.
    Based on the information I provided, do I indeed have a failed hard drive, and will NOT be able to recover the contents of my drive, and am SOL and am just wasting my own time?
    Or is there a way I can get the files in my user account to show?
    I wanted to provide all of the backstory on this first, instead of just saying "user folder empty" in case the backstory helps someone know what's going on.
    Anyone want a crack at this? I can upload screen grabs if that helps. Insight? Suggestions? Ideas? Thank you in advance!!
    ================================================================================ ================
    BTW: about backing up. I am diligent about backing up and always have redundant backups of everything (I'm a professional photographer). I DID have my mbp fully backed up via Time Machine to an external drive, but due to my iMac ALSO failing recently and needing repair work, I had to wipe the drive clean and do a full backup of my iMac, which filled the last drive I had left, because I also recently purchased a Canon 5D Mark III, which produces insanely huge RAW files which helped completely fill a single drive I had used to back up both the iMac and mbp. Couple that with writing a book under deadline for a major publisher and not having time to research or purchase another drive, and a failing macbook pro drive a short time later and it was the perfect storm- a total cluster.
    (Also, tried Data Rescue 3 on the external drive that DID have the mbp backup on it and was unsuccessful).
    The good news is, since the hard drive was less than a year old when it failed (again, thanks Apple!), and it was all mirrored content to my iMac to begin with, (most of which I would pass over to the iMac whenever I had the chance), only about 15% of the data on this failed drive is data I don't have on my iMac. Unfortunately it's all documents- word docs, pages docs, text docs, excel docs, that can't be recreated, including, what I think is the funniest blog post I've ever written. Sigh...... No client work or images thank god, But still. I really want it back.

    u can give try to using external enclosre and backup ur files. I hope u will get files back. or using external enclosre with ur hdd boot into Linux and try to mount ur harddisk.
    there are multiple no of tutorial to mount apple partion in Linux.

  • My macbook pro (13 in, mid-2010) failed to boot with single beep. Reset PRAM, now it's working normally. Should I still be worried/take it in?

    Okay so my mbp has had a couple minor freakouts lately, particularly while streaming video (the screen would turn one solid color and the only solution was to reboot) then today I opened my laptop and was in the process of entering my password when the screen shut off. The computer attempted to reboot, failed, told me there was a problem and it was trying again, and a bunch of weird text appeared over the gray boot screen. I turned it off, and when I tried to turn it back on again, it wouldn't boot and instead emitted a low beep once every 5 seconds accompanied by a flashing light on the front. I read that it was a RAM problem so I did the hold down P R command control (or something) and restarted it and now it's working normally.
    But should I be worried? Should I still take it in? Is there some sort of memory diagnostic I should run?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Which model MacBook Pro do you have (e.g., "15-inch Late 2011")?
    Oops! Should have read the header! There are no known issues affecting that particular model and I would only take it in for testing if it begins to exhibit similar problems again. You may have 'fixed' it with a NVRAM reset. But just be on the look-out for further glitches and, if they occur, then take the machine into your local Apple Store or AASP.

  • MacBook Pro connect to Epson projector

    I have tried everything to no avail. Trying to connect my MacBook Pro OS X 10.7.5 to an Epson ceiling mounted projector. I am using a wall mounted HDMI cable connected directly to my MBP. I get no communication to the projector. I tried going to System Preferences and to images and applications but nothing shows up only various resolution settings. Is the resolution setting an issue? I am really frustrated since it seems to work fine with other projectors (not ceiling mounted).

    Exactly the same way you would connect it to an older MBP with a mini-Displayport. The Thunderbolt port is, for your purposes, the same thing, and the same adapters work with it.

  • Macbook pro will not restart after failed disk repair

    This has happened twice in one week.
    A routine disk verify was performed and returned errors.  I reboot into the recovery drive and run disk utility.  To validate the first finding, I run disk verify again. Same failure.  Then I run repair disk.  Disk repair fails. After this, the system will not boot.  Now, even the disk utility 'sees' the main particitian, but it's grayed out.  when i go to retore Lion, the main partition is not seen at all. 
    The kicker is that two different hard drives are involved.  The first is a 500 gb Western Digital and the second is a 750 gb seagate. System is a mid-2009 MBP with 8gb ram. 
    I performed a full system backup this weekend but do not have it with me and will not have access to it until this weekend.  Any help out there?  Or am I just screwed?

    Oh by the way, a mid-2009 MacBook Pro would not have 10.4.6.   In fact it might not even have 10.6.4.   10.6.4 didn't get prebundled until June 15, 2010.   So where you get 10.4.6 on your signature, that confused people as to what you really have.

  • Macbook Pro 5,1 Internet & Server "failed" but can still surf the web

    Hello! I know there are many discussions concerning this topic, and I have read many of them to fix the problem but no luck. I use a TimeCapsule Airport to connect wirelessly to my internet. I have two other laptops (one Macbook Pro and one Dell) that also can connect to the wireless. The TimeCapsule is connected to a router that's jacked into the wall, therefore my Airport Utility connects using automatic DHCP and assigns IP addresses within that router. My Network Diagnostics states that all of my network points are connected up until the Internet  and Server, both of which say "failed" (more explicitly: Airport, Airport Settings, Network Settings, and ISP are all green while Internet and Server are red). The same thing happens if I plug my ethernet cable into my macbook. My other devices connect to the internet just fine and the other Macbook shows all green for diagnostics.
    With this, I am unable to connect to software updater, help, and various other server-requisite connections/programs. This ***** because my battery also requires a software update as the System Profile shows it as "Condition: Check Battery" and my Macbook is constantly crashing for no reason (fully charged, no warning) when it runs on battery.
    I've restarted my router many times, unplugged all power/connection cables and nothing. I've reset my TimeCapsule and nothing. I'm at a loss! Can someone please help? Thanks!

    I finally solved the problem by myself.
    For anyone reading this thread and having similar issues, I quickly describe how I did it:
    Basically, I changed totally nothing on either Soft- or Hardware side.
    But what I did was disassemble my MBP, remove one of those 2 memory chips, un- and replugged the SSD, turned the system on with just one memory chip, let it run for a while (did some stress tests on the SSD that ususally lead to massive problems) and everything worked smooth.
    At first I thought the one memory I removed was bad, but to my surprise the system continued to work stable after I put it in again.
    Since 6 days my MBP runs smooth without any troubles like spinning wheels or whatsoever.
    I've read many threads from other people having similiar issues with this configuration, coming up with a lot of ideas and workarounds.
    Although this seems to be weird, I hope that it helps some of you facing the same weird behaviour.

  • Macbook Pro crashes then hard disk fail

    I'm a weathered mac user and have had macs for the last 15 or so years. I bought a new Macbook Pro 4 months ago and it has crashed more times than all of my previous macs together.
    A month after buying it with SL installed, the beach ball of death came up on the screen more often and then a day later the computer froze and the hard drive was corrupted. I reinstalled OSX and it worked fine (all data backed up using a time capsule phew!) until a month later it started getting slow again. I went to disk utility and this told me the hard drive need a repair. Then it tried to repair and said it could not and OSx could not be loaded onto the hard disk. Apple directed me to a service centre and replaced the hard drive.
    Then a week ago (Xmas eve to be precise) the same thing happened. The hard disk froze and said it needed to be repaired. I took it to a genius bar where the guy (who seemed knowledgeable) said that it was not a hardwear but a software problem and reinstalled OSx. Fair enough I thought and rather than using the migration assistant I dragged over my emails, photos and doc etc.
    If you've got this far well done! My problem now is that this evening it has once again started crashing for no apparent reason. I have no dodgy programs loaded, in fact all of them are on both mine and another mac. Two things have also happened, Front Row keeps loading up for some strange reason and I'm unsure why. Secondly the hard drive started making some really bizarre clicking noise whilst time machine was backing up.
    Has anyone any ideas what to do next or had similar problems?

    Well, if there isn't a hardware problem then there must be a software problem. Of course the diagnostics test may not detect a problem especially if it's random unless you run the test over a prolonged period of time - 24 hours, for example.
    If it is a software issue then I would start by doing the following:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (for Intel Macs) or APM (for PPC Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Quit DU after formatting is completed and reinstall OS X.
    In answer to your firmware query: No, you cannot return to the previous version.

  • MacBook Pro and my home network - FAIL

    Hello...and HELP
    I have a MacBook Pro whose network access has slowly deteriorated over the last few weeks so as to be completely unusable, and I'm at a loss as to the solution
    I have a Netgear Router WPN824x2 and a number of Tivo's, iPhones, and windows machines successfully running off the wifi without incident. However, our MacBook Pro, which also used to automatically connect and get a relatively good signal had begun dropping connections or not connecting at all. Sometimes it wouldn't even spot the SSID for the network (or the networks of the adjoining apartments, which I used to regularly see as well). For the last couple of weeks, I have had to walk the laptop to within a couple feet of the router to get any signal at all. Again, other computers moving to the exact same spot had no issues.
    For most of this time I had been running WEP security. I thought the problem may be someone poaching bandwidth or ports from my router, so I changed my security to WPA2. Again, I changed all the other devices in my house to the new password and had no problem connecting, and thought I had (briefly) solved the problem with the MacBook, too. Unfortunately that's not the case.
    I'm now getting a number of problems with my connection, and have been cycling through different issues trying to troubleshoot. when I try to connect to my home network I get one of the following messages (they rotate)
    1) "the network you are trying to connect to requires a WEP password" - this is inaccurate as I'm now running WPA2
    2) "The network you are trying to connect to requires a WPA password" (good) but when the correct password is entered I get either "invalid password" or "network timeout"
    I've deleted keychain entries, tried to connect in network diagnostics and airport utilities, and pretty much anything else I can think of, but the problems are repeating.
    Can anyone help with this? Please advise!

    OK, this is now REALLY ******* me off. I bought a new dual-band router in hopes that the router was the issue. For about two days I was able to log into the 5 mhz band and thought I'd gotten around the problem. Now all the old problems are back, and this time it won't even detect the 5 mhz band (conveniently renamed so I could tell it from the other band). And it's STILL asking for WEP passwords on WPA security.
    Am I to assume at this point that apple airport just *****? I'm ready to give up on my Mac altogether over this...

  • My macbook pro retina line out is failing

    Hi, on my new macbook pro retina the audio line out is just not working propertly anymore... I always use an external speakers and now, it know only works sometimes, sometimes it plays on the external output, sometimes on the macbook itself (like there is no external thing plugged). In start I tought that could be a problem on the connect, but using headphones I'm having the same problem.
    Any chances that I can fix it in home (of course, without needing to open the mac...), or I'm really going to take it to a tech support?
    If I need the tech support, I have the Apple Care, but I'm on Brazil (more specifically in Recife), there are a few authorized mac resellers here, I can use my Apple Care on those?

    Something like that...yesterday my mbp freeze while I was waching a Movie! It might be temperature issue I think!

  • Macbook pro hard drive woes (original failed, new one wont recognize)

    So my hard drive recently messed up pretty hard a couple of months ago. I havea  mac book pro that was purchased around fall... 20...10? 2011? I'm actually not sure. Anyway, I started it up from the boot disk to wipe it and reinstall everything. Turns out the disk utility said there were bad sectors and needed repair. So I attempted repair, and it said it worked but then I rescanned and it said it needed repair... anyway after about 5 hours of doing all this stuff I said screw it and busted out my external hard drive. I successfully got to install and boot from that. Anyway, I recently got my hands on a 320 gb hitachi hard drive that I plugged in but it wont recognize it in the disk utility, at all. I have no idea why it wont. I know the cable is fine because it shows my other original failing hard drive.
    So what do I do? There are no close apple stores or anything and I have pretty much no more money to send it out or anything like that. I just need it to recognize my new hard drive in disk utility.

    u can give try to using external enclosre and backup ur files. I hope u will get files back. or using external enclosre with ur hdd boot into Linux and try to mount ur harddisk.
    there are multiple no of tutorial to mount apple partion in Linux.
