My Windows network printer continues to show as being paused, how do i fix this

I have had my MacBook Pro since July and it has worked like a "PRO". But a week ago the printer on my Windows Network begin showing up as "paused" when I tried to print to it, and it will not "come off of paused" no matter what I try. I have added nothing or changed nothing since I began using both the printer or the laptop back in July.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what may have happened or how to fix this? I have already uninstalled the printer and reinstalled it but it quickly returns to showing up as paused.

Extras --> Folder Options or File --> Oganize depending on whether or not you hide the menu in Windows Explorer, then pick the File Associations tab.

    Temporarily dip ****.
    And excluding the extremely high network traffic due to the many millions of users downloading the update a day or two after is was released, this is a problem with that swiss cheese for security garbage OS that is Windows only, which is the joke. An update that is now running on 1 in 3 compatible iDevices which is in the 10's of milllions is vaporware Einstein?
    If I were your rep, I would tell you to **** off. Go get Windoze mobile devices.

  • My computer using Windows 8 doesn't recognize my Canon Rebel. How do I fix this?

    My computer using Windows 8 doesn't recognize my Canon Rebel. How do I fix this?

    Hi MWCRILLY,
    To connect your camera to a Windows Vista or Windows 7 computer or Windows 8 computer, you'll need to change your camera's "Communication" mode.
    To set your camera up for this, please do the following:
    With the camera disconnected from the computer, turn the camera on.  Press the "Menu" button.  Now select the [Wrench, Hammer, 2] tab.  Scroll down to "Communication" and press the "Set" button.
    Select the [Print/PTP] and press "Set".  This process is more completely described (and illustrated too!) on page 121 of your Digital Rebel XT instruction manual.
    Now connect your camera to your computer and turn the camera on.  Your computer should now recognize and have access to your Digital Rebel XT.
    Unfortunately, Canon software cannot communicate with the Rebel XT when operating in this mode.
    You may download your pictures using Windows Photo Gallery.  If you haven't already done so, you may retrieve and install this program from Microsoft's download.live.com.

  • After updating to Yosemite, I updated iPhoto. Alert said to convert my library to new iPhoto. Then alert said I needed to repair permissions. Then a freeze. Then iPhoto won't find and show my library. How do I fix this?

    After updating to Yosemite, I updated iPhoto. Alert said to convert my library to new iPhoto. Then alert said I needed to repair permissions. Then a freeze. Then iPhoto won't find and show my library. How do I fix this? I can see the library icon on my external drive, but it doesn't show as a library in iPhoto. When I double click on the icon, nothing happens. When I choose it from alternate menu, doesn't open. Where do I get help?

    Peter
    Do you have a back up? What version of iPhoto do you have? Assuming 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    Looks like Apple did the same thing with Lion that Microsoft did with Vista. Brought it on the market before it was ready.
    I run a MacBook Pro and upgrading to Lion caused me two days of trouble and computer crash. Router settings removed and router blocked. Dongle not recognised, you name it.
    In the end, I gave up and using my Snow Leopard installation disk and a Time Machine Backup finally got my computer up and running again. Thanks to Lion, I think I'll stay with OS X 10.6.8 at least it's reliable.

  • My new mac book air will not show old emails.  how can i fix this problem

    my new mac book air will not show old emails.  how can i fix this problem

    The answer depends on a number of factors, such as the following:
    If you have more than one email account, does this problem affect one, some, or all of your accounts?
    Where did you last see this mail -- in your Inbox(es)? in some other folder(s) outside your Inbox(es)? somewhere else?
    How old is the missing email -- yesterday? just before you got the new computer? over a week? over a month? over a year?
    How are you reading email -- with the builtin Mail application? with some other mail-reading application? with a web browser?
    How do you access your email on the server -- IMAP? POP? Exchange? web browser? other?
    What version of OS X is on your new computer -- Mavericks (10.9.x)? Mountain Lion (10.8.x)?
    Did you migrate your data and applications from your old computer when you set up your new computer?
    For example, if the missing mail is the mail that was in your Inbox before you got the new computer, you are reading it with the builtin Mail via POP, and you failed to migrate data, then the mail was left behind on the old computer. The same would be true if the mail was in "On My Mac" mailboxes and you failed to migrate data.

  • HT204088 Purchased items not showing up...How do I fix this??!!

    I want to access my purchased music and not all of my purchased items are showing up. Only my  most recent purchases are there. How do I fix this??!!

    iTunes Store and App Store items are only available in the cloud in the country storefront where they were purchased. If you've changed the country associated with your account, your old purchases won't appear on your Purchased page.
    Another reason you might not see purchases in the cloud is because you may have hidden them. For information about hiding and unhiding purchases, see this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    Another possibility is that you have more than one iTunes Store account and that the music in question was actually purchased using another Apple ID.
    Or ... the missing music has been modified in or removed from the iTunes Store since you purchased it and as a result, is no longer eligible for  subsequent download via iTunes in the Cloud.

  • IPod Touch shows up on My Computer, but freezes iTunes, and does NOT show up on iTunes, how can i fix this?

    I have honestly spent countless hours trying to fix this, I FINALLY got it to show in My Computer, driver is updated, I have re-installed iTunes numerous times, recently did a FRESH Windows 7 Ultimate re-install, i can't restore the iPod (because it has been restored, and I can't even access it via iTunes) My iPod is NOT broken, it works on my laptop fine, it shows up on iTunes and My Computer, no problem. However, I need to use my iPod on my main computer for songs (iPod's practically new by the way) Like my question states, my iTunes freezes up, and it's very strange because it freezes, then a couple minutes later iTunes works fine, BUT my iPod doesn't show up on the side like it's supposed to. I've done everything, I hope I get some good support, thanks in advance!
    ~Thomas
    Edit: I have the latest update for the driver, and iTunes, iPod has 4.3.3

  • My phone is not switching from 4G over to WiFi. The phone has the network memorized its just not check marking the network and to switch over to WiFi. How can I fix this?

    I have the iPhone 4S and the wifi was working on it earlier yesterday. I noticed that the wifi didn't kick on last night. It has the network memorized so it could connect automatically. The network name pops up and there's a signal but the spinning circle thing is there and it won't put a check mark by the network name. The wifi will pop up every now and then but only stay for a minute or less. Everyone else's phone and computer is connecting just fine but mine isn't. It won't switch over to WiFi from 4G. I've tried turning off the wifi on my phone. I've tried to forget the network and put in the password numerous of times and I tried to fix it by turning my phone on and off and that still didn't work. I'm hoping that this is a temporary thing but I don't know. What's a good way to fix this because seriously I would like to not use up all of my data for this kind of bull crap. So what's a good way to fix this?

    I got the ATV hooked up to the WiFi after manually inputting the DHCP settings.
    The ATV will not see iTunes from a PC on the same iTune network.  I guess you need an Apple computer for iTunes to connect to the ATV.
    The biggest problem is that the iTunes store on the ATV is nonexistent I imagine because of competition/ monopolies in the UAE.  If I was in Lao, Burma, Thailand, Mozambique no problem.  40 Countries are listed and non of them are from the Middle East.  When I logon to the iTunes store on my PC it too does not allow for me to buy any movies or TV shows.  I am not sure why. 
    As for the iPad OS6, iTunes has an icon and when you click it you get iTune U or Podcast, no video content.  The App store works fine and they are always happy to take your money but no video content. 
    To top it all off YouTube is no longer licensed under OS6.0 and although I can get it on Google Chrome it is by no means as quick (for reasons unknown).
    As I said before if I choose United States as my country the ATV hooks up and lets me browse TV and movies and watch trailers but not able to purchase (obviously).
    So my conclusion is that ATV will not hook up to the iTune store in the UAE?  If this is incorrect please clue me in.

  • I have Windows 8. The address bar does not show on firefox. How do I fix this?

    The address bar does not show. How do I get it to appear?

    * If the menu bar is hidden then press and hold the Alt key down, that should make the Menu bar appear. Make sure that you have the Navigation Toolbar and other toolbars visible: View > Toolbars .
    * If items are missing then see if you can find them in the View > Toolbars > Customize window.
    * If you see the item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window to the Navigation toolbar.
    * If you do not see that item then click the Restore Default Set button in the View > Toolbars > Customize window.
    See also [[Back and forward or other toolbar buttons are missing]] and [[Customize navigation buttons like back, home, bookmarks and reload]] See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Toolbar_customization
