Need to attach printer to NEW wi-fi but can't get it off old wi-fi

i just bought a macbook, airport, and hp photosmart c4780. Stupidly set up the printer before I set up the airport. So now the printer is attached to my old linksys wi-fi that doesn't exists anymore and wont recognize the new airport router when i perform HP Setup Assistant. 
again, im running a mac (snow leopard if it matters)  i would like to print wirelessly from my new wi-fi network.
does anyone know how to disconnect the printer from a network?
thank you very much 

For Snow Leopard the printer drivers are built into the OS.  Do this:
1. Get the Airport set up and your computer connected to it so you can access the internet.
2. Unplug the printer from the wall, wait a minute, then plug it back in and re-start it.
3. Go to System Preferences, Print & Fax and add a printer (delete the printer first if it appears in the list by selecting it and hitting the minus sign).
4. You should see your printer on the network, select it and click Add.
Let me know if this works, please. 
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.
I am employed by HP

  • I did not sync music properly to computer from iphone3.  have new iphone4.  how can i get music off old phone onto new one.  new phone all set up.  help

    I did not sync my iphone3 music to my computer.  Thought I did it properly but did not.  New at this stuff.  Now my IT person installed and configured my new iphone4 and my music is on old phone.  Anyway to get it to new phone.  Help.:)

    Set up your new phone as if it were the old one. Settings, mail, mobile me, same email same password that you used on old phone. You can still sync the old phone to iTunes library. You may have to click on picture of phone on the left & click on back up iPhone.  You'll see songs, contacts & calendar downloading in apple slot at the top. When done connect new phone. Authorize computer put in apple ID when that screen comes up & that should allow both phones to share the library. If you use the same ID the same information will be on both phones.

    Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window.
    Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. You should see your hard drive in the left hand column along with your other drives. Click on the drive and select the Erase tab. Set the format value to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and click the Erase button. After that has finished select the Partition tab. Type in a Name for your hard drive and select how many partitions you want from the Volume Scheme. The usual setting is one partition. Click on the Options button after you've selected a partition to make sure it's set for GUID. Then click the Apply button and after the Partitioning is done quit Disk Utility.
    You can now follow the instructions on the install screen

  • I have a new iTunes account, on a new computer. How can I get all my old music on my iPhone?

    I recently received a new laptop for christmas, so I wanted to use my own apple account on my iPhone. How would I get all the music/apps from the old library and account onto my new library account?

    Your music will only be where you put it.
    Copy it from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • Printing a "dynamic static OLE" but can't get it to print on second page.

    Hello and thanks in advance for any help on this.
    Scenario:   Have Crystall XI  and am printing a "dynamic static OLE". 
       I opened up the crystal report and dropped a "non-availabe image" on the page.  I then right-clicked on the image and
    went to 'Format Graphic" .. then to 'Graphic Location" and created the formula with the path to my image.  A .xml file was then created with the pathing information in the .xml fields.  The image it is supposed to print will be dynamically created thru another process, thus the image size can and will vary.  This all works great with two exceptions:
    1)  If the actual image is smaller than the template or 'non-available' image I placed on the page it will scale it up to
         that size stretching and distorting the image.
          Question:
               Is there any way to tell the crystal report to not scale this smaller image up and to just leave it as it is?
    2)  If the actual image is larger than one page it will try to push it all on to this one page and will even discard what
         it can't force onto page making the image shrunken and distorted.
           Question:
              Is there a way to have a oversized image actually break to the second or third page?
      OR:
           Question:
              Is once you set that 'non-avaliable' image (or template) on page then that is where your dynamic image will have to fit?
    Thank you for any input on this subject, your time is very much appreciated.

    File > Page Setup = Scale <br />
    100% is usually best

  • Migrated iPhoto content to new MacBook Pro,  but can't get '11

    Hi there,
    I migrated my iPhoto content from my old laptop to my new one, the new one has OSX 10.6.7, but somehow I seem to have migrated iPhoto v8.1.2 also. iPhoto '11 should be part of 10.6.7, right? iPhoto '11 cannot be found on my new computer, did one cancel the other?
    My hubby did exactly the same thing, migrated his old iPhoto content to his new MacBook Pro and he has iPhoto '11. I have tried to download it but it seems that it's too big to download, it requires a physical disc. My computer came with the software already loaded.
    If anyone can give me any pointers on how to fix this I'd be so grateful.
    Thanks,

    How did you migrate the iPhoto content?
    As to iPhoto version - iPhoto does not come with any OS - it comes on new computers and can be purchased as part of iLife or in the App store
    reinstall iPhoto - go to your receipts folder ("Your hard drive" ==> library ==> receipts) and remove any iPhoto receipts and reinstall from the restore disks that came with your computer - do a custom install of bundled software only

  • My friend needs to upgrade her Macbook Pro OS X but can't get into her internet. I would like to download the update but would need to use my password. Is this possible or should I just wait for her password?

    My friend needs to upgrade to Yosemite but her network is faulty. I told her I would upgrade for her on my network. I don't have her Apple password at this time so I thought I would use mine. Is it possible to use my password and ID for this download?

    She gave me her ID so everything is going as it should. That's what I thought but in a moment of wait I thought I would ask.
    Many thanks,

    What this message means is that you have more music in your itunes library than there is free space in your ipod.
    I had this same issue at one time. This is what helped me put my music on the ipod. I used manually manage.

    Mac OS X does not offer a Clean install option.    If by clean install you mean erasing the system, that is not recommended unless:
    1. You bought a used/refurbished Mac and there is software on it without any accompanying discs, and it is older than July 20, 2011 in model release:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6413
    Or if it is at or newer, then erase it if it has applications installed that would not have been prebundled with it and you have no CDs for those applications.
    You don't want someone else's software keys, or accounts, or to be running unlicensed software.  At and newer Macs offer a built-in internet restore for their software with a command-R boot that lets you erase the system with Disk Utility, and then install from the internet the latest operating system.
    2. You have a hardware issue and want to eliminate possible software issues as the cause when troubleshooting a problem all at once.
    Issues affecting a new install have to be isolated before you attempt it.   Unless you know it is software or hardware, erasing may only mask other problems.

  • How do i get music from my account onto my new pc? I think I need to deauthorise old accounts but I can't get onto my old computers?

    Basically I just bought a new pc and I can't get my music that I've already payed for from my account onto this new computer. I've had this problem before but it was never resolved. I think I need to deauthorise my old computers but I don't understand how or why. Please help someone?

    On itunes? OR externally? Because I did back them up on itunes and I think I do have an external backup, I just wanted to know whether it was possible for me to recover them from itunes as they still show up in my purchase history.
    Only in the U.S.
    This is one of the many reasons that always maintaining a backup is very important.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back. 
    Your purchase history is only a list of your purchases.  There are no files there.

  • My itunes is on an old computer.  So old that I can't update it and so Haven't used it in two years.  How can I move it to my new laptop and make sure this doesn't happen again?  Very frustrated that I've spend $$ but can't get my music.

    I want so set up itunes on my laptop and make sure that I get all of my old music and any music shared from my sons' itunes accounts.  Do I have to set up itunes on my new laptop first and then use the same logins?  Really concerned about losing any music, etc.

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

    Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
    Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
    I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
    Thanks for the advice, Bee
    Cheers, Gerd

  • HT5312 I changed my email address and apple is ok wih it but iCloud still has my old email address and is not recognising either my original password or my new password. How can I get my iCloud account email address corrected and also get my new password

    Hi
    I changed email addresses but iCloud sill has my previous address registered. It also is not recognising either my original password or my new password. How can I get my new email address into the iCloud system, and also lodge a new password with them?
    I'm using an ipad and all else is ok but not icloud.

    Welcome to the Apple community Ross.
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
