I can't restore my new iphone4. Help. An error msg appears coding 3014

Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
Update to the latest version of iTunes.
Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.

my computer tries to download the software necessary and then says its not available at this time and to try again later, but I've tried a few times now since monday and its no different
i desperately need to print sign scan and email a document asap!

Somewhere in the printer's documentation, presumably.
HP's model designations can be incomprehensible. Try this page:

Office jet 8600 won't scan more than one page

My Office jet 8600 will only scan one page at a time. It doesn't matter if I use the document feeder or put the document on the glass. When the scanner asks if I have another page I select yes and then I receive a message telling me the scanner is already in use and can't scan another page. I have talked to HP tech support twice and downloaded new drivers. The scanner worked perfectly until the last few days when it started having this problem. HP tech support was not able to help.

Hi @LonghornJack
I am really not certain what would cause the message stating that the printer is in use when you try to scan a second page, but running the Print and Scan Doctor might help. The HP Print and Scan Doctor is a free utility (tool) that helps to quickly resolve common printing, scanning and connectivity issues including but not limited to:
Connectivity:
USB: Verifies that the USB connection from your computer to the HP product is working correctly.
Network: Verifies that the network connection between your computer and your network is working correctly.
Device Status Test: Checks for device errors such as out of paper, paper jams, carriage stalls, and paper feed issues, and then provides instructions for fixing the error.
Driver Check: Checks for missing or corrupt driver files.
Device Manager: Checks for problems in Device Manager that would prevent printing.
Device Online: Checks if the product has been paused or set to offline, and then sets the status back to online if necessary.
Print Queue: Checks for and clears pending print jobs in the print queue (a log of print jobs waiting to print).
Port Match: Checks the port settings for the HP product.
Device Conflicts: Checks for conflicts with other drivers, such as other printer brands.
Ink Issues: Checks the cartridges and ink levels for issues that affect print quality.
Print Settings: Checks and adjusts the print quality settings.
Test Print: Prints a test page for print quality evaluation, and provides options for cleaning and aligning the printhead if necessary.
Scan Tests: Checks the scan mechanism, drivers, and registry entries.
Source:Try the HP Print and Scan Doctor for Windows
Click here to download and run the Print and Scan Doctor >>>>> www.hp.com/go/tools
If this does not resolve the issue, post back and let me know if there are any symbols other than green check marks and what they are next to of course. The wrench is not always easy to spot as the wrench and the check mart are in the green circle.
If you see only green check marks (), the tool did not find any problems.
If you see green wrenches (), the utility identified an issue and corrected it automatically.
If you see yellow exclamation points (), the test failed and required user action, but the step was skipped.
If you see a red X (), follow the on-screen instructions to resolve the issue.
I look forward to hearing back from you.

HP office jet 8600, wireless not working, IP address not being recognized

Purchased new HP office jet pro 8600 N911a. Inserted CD software on relatively new Toshiba laptop using Windows 7, but problem is that printer IP address is not being recognized. Wireless router is Apple airport extreme. Have checked various potential solutions, including the following: deleting software and re-inserting CD, turning off router, computer, printer and resetting, running a wirless network test (no problems found, wireless on and working and connected), ensuring that laptop and printer are on the same wirless network (yes), ensuring that printer IP address is entered correctly, and ensuring that firewall issues are not a problem. Airport extreme settings show this printer's MAC address as a "wireless client" and its IP address as a "DHCP client"; however, when clicking on the "printers" heading in Airport extreme printers, no printers are listed (this is the pane that shows the USB printers connected to your Airport wirless device). Any suggestions would be appreciated

Hi,
Why don't you connect the printer wirelessly to your Airport Extreme?
You may do so by clicking the Wireless icon on the printer screen, click Settings and follow the Wireless Setup Wizard to connect the device, then it should recieve its own IP by using the printer capabilities..
If you prefer to use such a Print Server configuration, you may try using a different USB and check if that may help, otherwise I would suggest you to contact Apple as they know their accessories the best..

Two Sided Printing with HP Office Jet 8600

I have installed an HP Office Jet 8600 N911A The two sided printing feature is not functioning. HP's website offered instructions on the OX 10.6 system, but not 10.7.3

Hello,
You should be able to print on two sides using this method for your product:
NOTE:You can print your document on both sides of the paper, instead of just one side. Click on the Advanced button on the Paper/Quality or Layout tab. From the Pages to Print drop-down menu select Print Odd Pages Only . Click OK to print. After the odd numbered pages of the document have been printed, remove the document from the output tray. Reload the paper in the input tray with the blank side facing up. Return to the Pages to Print drop-down menu and then select Print Even Pages Only . Click OK to print.

Wireless is not working on my new HP office jet 6700 premium

Gents,
i have a new HP office jet 6700 premium all in one printer and i coneccted to the network via wireless and its works only for 2 minutes and after that its not working via wireless unless i disconnected and reconected again please advice.
FYI it is working very good by USB, and im using Mac OS X 10.9.3 version
Regards,

Hi Kattoa,
Welcome to the HP forums!
I'm sorry to hear your Officejet 6700 doesn't seem to be holding it's wireless connection but I'd be happy to help determine what the problem could be
I think it would be best if you followed this Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection document as it should be able to help determine why the printer has to be reconnected so frequently.
Let me know how that goes for you!!

New hp Office Jet Pro 8500 A910 will not take printing from computer to printer

My new HP Office Jet Pro 8500 A910

Hi Acepvteye,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that you cannot print with your HP Officejet pro 8500 A910, and I am happy to help you with this
issue!
For further assistance, I will need to know:
If the printer is connected, Wireless, or USB.
If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
If the printer is able to make copies by itself.
If the power cable plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
Hope to hear from you, and thank you for posting!

Error code 242 on Office jet 8600

Office Jet 8600 quite accepting fax's. Error code 242, but fax test show all connections are good.

Hi @Skylek
According to the following document, error 242 means the remote fax machine is attempting to receive instead of send. Both machines have attempted to start a reception at the same time. On many fax machines, it is possible to accidentally initiate a fax reception in the following cases:
There is no paper in the machine.
The paper is not correctly loaded and the document sensor cannot sense it.
Interpreting Error Codes in Fax Communication Error or Fax History Reports
Recommended Solution:
Contact the sender to make sure that a document is ready and correctly loaded in the sending fax machine. Also make sure that the remote machine is attempting to initiate a transmission and not a reception.
I hope this helps.

Cant set up my HP office jet 8600 printer with my iPad mini

Can't set my HP office jet 8600 printer with my iPad mini

That is not an AirPrint supported printer. Check for compatibility here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
Check the App Store for an HP app that may provide limited printing functionality. Alternatively, you can use your computer as a wireless print server using an app like Printopia. Note that your computer must be on and able to print for this solution to work.

-Reece,
We only have 1 single domain, 1 domain forest, no subdomains, only alias. I had replied to the other post as well. But I am happy to paste it here in case anyone want to read it.
So, after a few months of testing, capture and sending logs back and forth to Apple Engineers, we found out there is a setting in AD, under User Account that prevent us to log into AD from Mountain Lion. If you would go to your AD server, open up a user account properties, then go to Account tab, the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" option is checked. As soon as I uncheck that option, immediately I was able to log into AD on the Mac client. Apple engineers copied all my AD settings and setup a test environment on their end and match exact mine AD environment. They was able to reproduce this issue.
The bad part about this is... our environment required the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" is checked in AD, in order for our users to login into some of our Unix and Linux services. Which mean that it is impossible for us to remove that check mark because most, if not all of them some way or another require to login into applications that run on Unix and Linux. Apple is working to see if they can come up with a fix. Apparently, no one has report this issue except us. I believe most of you out there don't have that check mark checked in your environment... Anyone out there have any suggestion to by pass or have a work around for this?

Photoshop suddenly does not print to Epson 3880 - PROBLEM: Cannot print from Photoshop After restart error message appears: - "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopen

PROBLEM: Cannot print from Photoshop
After restart error message appears:
— “There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents.”
• All print commands are greyed out and unavailable — even to call up the printer commands cannot be done.
The printer printed fine until about 2 weeks ago when this error message appeared. Printing continues from Pages, I-photo, preview etc. — only Photoshop fails.
The printer has been turned on and off, as have open documents been closed and open etc.. Preferences reset. Repeatedly I have read through blogs and forums and attempted to contact Adobe — all without results
Epson support struggled to find reason and several solutions were tried and they assume this is an Adobe problem.
Running Mac Powerbook X 10.10.2 / Photoshop CS6 13.0.6.x64
Attempting unsuccessfully to print to Epson 3880
What Adobe support will be of help.
