Joshua,Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
The best guide I've seen on this subject is provided by Apple Discussion's user iFelix. In his guides there are numerous Windoze/Mac networking tips and this guide covers printing from an XP box to a printer connected to a G5 running Panther (10.3.x).
kind regards

Share printer on network Windows 7 with Mac OS 10.5

I connected my Win7 PC to my local network and it prints fine on the PC, but I need some assistance getting the printer recognized to print on the eMac running 10.5. Thanks for any help.

Please tell us the printer model.
Confirm - the printer is connected to Windows, and shared from there?

Using a network-stored catalog with Mac OSX

Greetings all.
I am using Photoshop Elements 11 on Mac OSX Mountain Lion and want to store my catalog on a local network drive (FreeNAS). I have encountered many problems while attempting to do this. Then I noticed in the Elements Organizer help, under the section "Repair a catalog", the following: "Note: (Mac OS) You cannot access catalogs present on a network drive."
Is this true. or has someone found a workaround to the problem?
Thanks!
--John

Thanks, for that ( I assume we have to carry on in English due to forum policy even though we are both of German tongue I assume)
You mean the access problems are part of the "no network drive" thing? I suspected that. Took me a whole day in front of my computer to realign the mess. So should one better not use the network drives at all? Quite a pity in times where everybody seems to use network storage.
No, I did not use organizer to use the photos. So there is no way to reconnect them? Should I delete the catalogue and start with the photos from scratch?
Regards

Well, yes, these are part of the "no network drive" thing.
As for moving the photos, did you use organizer to move them? You will always have trouble if you move photos outside of organizer, even on the same drive--you have to let it manage your photos or it doesn't have a clue as to what happened.

Partitioning and Installing Windows 7 with Mac OS X Lion

Hi
after failing seriously with the partitioning after installing Win 7, I hope that I will find some help from the scratch...
I want to install OS X Lion with Win 7.
3 Partitions with Mac are needed and 1 fro Windows.
I got 750Gb on my Mac Book Pro.
Disk should look like this:
100Gb Main Partition (Mac)
200Gb Documents Partition (Mac)
300Gb Stuff and Games (Mac)
150Gb Windows 7 Partition
I tried now to create a 100Gb Partition for Mac and a 150Gb Partition for Windows 7.
After Installing the Mac OS, I was trying to add the 2 other Partitions, but it already telling me that i'm gonna loose my Windows Boot when I change the Partitions. I pressed ok and restarted with the windows 7 DVD for the recovery, which wasn't working due to version incompability -.- (I installed Windows from that DVD)
What steps should I make to get this to work? Some guys says that it not gonna work, but a friend of min has 3 mac partitions and a windows. Sadly he can't remember the way to this setup
Thank you for the help

How to format Windows drive with Mac OS format

Hello
I have a Windows 160gb internal drive that is formated in Fat32. I am unable to format this drive with Mac OS X 10.3.9 in order to install Tiger 10.4. When I attempt to format using the Mac OS extended (journaled), I receive an error (sorry I didn't write it down) partition error. If I use the Mac OS extended option I recieve an error that the drive can not be unmounted.
How can I format this 160gb drive with Mac OS format so that I may install Mac OS X 10.4
Thank you

Do the following:
Extended Hard Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. If you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must 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. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
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 will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

Should be. See the following:
Mac OS X 10.5 Help- Sharing with Windows computers
Mac OS X 10.5 Help- Setting up a Mac computer to share files with Windows users

Of course you should also check online help by selecting Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and searching on relevant terms such as "sharing."

Sharing windows printer with mac notebook

i've been trying to get my windows printer to print something from my MAC notebook. so far i'm as far as the print icon appearing on my MAC pc showing a print job in progress but also showing that the windows host (my ISP) is busy and that the mac will try again in 30 seconds. i run a links wireless system and i don't know what would make the windows unit give off a busy signal to my MAC

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
See my printer FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/printersx.html
which may have some solutions for you.
Also note, printing labels for CDs is unwise. It has nothing to do with Mac or PC. Labels shorten the length of CDs. http://www.macintouch.com/cdrfailure.html covers that and much more. Basically for CDs, you should buy CDs that are prepackaged in a jewelcase, and not a spindle, and make your own jewelcase inserts or write on the jewelcase exterior the contents of the CD if you want to prolong the media life.

Network - Windows connecting to Mac printer.

I'm having trouble getting Windows XP to print to the Mac shared printer - It says its getting the drivers, and then the printer shows up in options, but when I print to it, the printer just never prints.
How do I get it to actually print?
Brian

Well, I finally got everything working last night, thanks to (a) the wonderfully clear step-by-step directions by iFelix (although they should add a quick word about port :631); very helpful comments from this forum; and sheer persistance in dealing with Windows XP.
Here's what I did wrong:
1. Omitted and then mis-typed the port number after the IP address.
2. Didn't check the signal strength of the 802.11g network (it was strong enough to see the Mac, but bizzarly not strong enough to see the printer attached to the Mac). Everything worked fine as soon as got an increased signal level.
3. Didn't read far enough ahead in the instructions and downnloaded the drivers for the Lexmark Z35 instead of using the Apple drivers as recomended by iFelix.
4. Forgot that under Windows you have to "Uninstall" - you can't just drag something into "Recycle" - so I couldn't understand for the longest time why XP kept finding the Lexmark drivers even after I'd emptied the Recycle bin.
Bottom line. "Thank you, iFelix" for your very detailed instructions. I only wish that Apple would make their own "Help" as clear and detailed.

Networking windows 98 with Lion

I have a brand new Mac Mini with Lion Server. I need to have my Windows 98 box see the Lion Server. In Windows 98 under Network Neighborhood I can see the server but when I click on it it errors out. It says it cannot read the server. My Windows XP machine has no problem reading the Lion Server.
Any suggestions on how my Window 98 can see my Mac Mini with Lion Server will be appreciated.

NetAdmin is a very old and unsupported utility and perhaps it's
making the password changes at the bindery level. The Microsoft
Client is also a bindery client. NWADMIN32 and C1 are NDS
Admin utilities. Again, for support here - you need to use Novell
Client *regardless* where you are seeing the errors. Errors aren't
there if using the supported combination of client and server.

How many computers can I connect my iPod Touch to? Can I mix Windows computer with Mac?

We are thinking about getting my dad an iPod touch for Christmas and preloading it with songs from our Mac. He has a Dell PC with Windows. Is it going to be a problem for him if he wants to add songs from his PC to the iPod Touch? Will he have to format the device and thus lose all of the songs we preload for him?

iPod tuchsdoare not formated for a a Mac or PC.
You do not have the right/lience to give away music you purchased.
An iPod can only sync with ene computer. To change syncing computer you have to erase the iPod and then sync to the new computer.

I bought a new i5 Mac mini.
I installed win 7 home premium 32 bit on it without a problem using boot camp from Lion. However windows does not totally fill the screen. There are black bars on all side of the display. About an inch thick.
I have the mini connected via HDMI to my sharp Aquos tv @ 1080p.
What can I do to fox this? My previous mini did not do this with nearly the same setup. There is now where to downlaod drivers for the AMD 6630M HD card in this mini.

Hi PaulJO
I have the same problem when I tried downloading and installing the catalyst suite software from AMD web site, it told me that my graphic card was not compatible. Which I know is!!
Any help on getting the driver?!?!

Windows Xp with Mac?

I wanted to know if this beta will ever get a real version? I am in the market of getting a new mac with these capabilities. I love mac but the accounting softwares that i use only work on windows.
I wanted to know what is the best option in my situation. Should i buy the newest mac and then install the beta version to use my accounting software? Thanks!

"I wanted to know if this beta will ever get a real version?"
Assuming you're talking about Boot Camp, a final version supposedly will be included in Mac OS 10.5, but nothing has been confirmed by Apple.
Further questions regarding Boot Camp should be posted in the Boot Camp discussions:

Syncing Windows users with Mac users home folders

Hello,
I have setup my 10.6 XServe to allow Windows user to connect.
The Windows machines log into the server just fine but when they save something to their Documents, Desktop etc... it doesn't show up when they log into a Mac machine and vice versa.
I did find a script on WazMac for a logon vbs but that does not work.
Any help?

Thank you Linc Davis,
I did some investigation on the internet to see the default ACLs on the "users" folder and I noticed that I added a group access. I deleted it and ended up with the correct configuration. I have now each user accessing his own home folder with read and write access to all the folders (desktop, music, video...) and sees the others users' home folder with access denied.
I think I can live with that configuration. Problem solved.
