No longer able to send fax with Brother MFC-8820D

I used to be able to send a fax by going to the Print... dialog box and selecting "Send Fax..." from the dropdown menu. Unfortunately, "Send Fax..." isn't there anymore. I've installed the latest Brother drivers. I'm not sure, but this may have started a couple versions of Leopard ago.
Any ideas?

According to the Brother website, the Printer driver for my MFC is bundled with OS X 10.5. Furthermore, it states: "The Bundled Drivers support the PC-FAX Send and the Status Monitor features." Scanner driver can be downloaded separately, but there's nowhere else to get the fax driver. So I'm still stuck.

No longer able to send faxes from C7510 via eFax

The eFax service from my C7510 all-in-all stopped working suddenly. I used it successfully over the last year. Now when I want to use it to send a fax, I'm promted from the printer screen to log in or register. When I attempt either one, I get the message "can not complete your request". Has something changed? I can log in to eFax.com from my computer with my credentials just fine.

Hi @GG09
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I understand that you are unable to access the eFax on your Photosmart 7510 printer.
I have included a link to a post by @PrintApper regarding eFax titled eFax users - please read. It has the information regarding the eFax feature.

No longer able to send attachments with e-mail

I TRY TO ATTACH ANYTHING AND WHEN I CLICK ON ATTACHMENT NOTHING HAPPENS. IT HAS WORKED FOR MANY YEARS BUT NOT NOW. IT SEEMS CHECKING ON MICROSOFT ATTACHMENTS INFO THAT THEY NOW ONLY WANT TO SEND LINKS AND NOT ANY FILES. I CLICKED ON SEND FILES BUT ATTACHMENT STILL DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE.

Please, turn off caps lock, screaming in your post is not necessary. What's your email client? Webmail? Outlook Web App? Try to delete the Firefox cache and test.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus - no longer able to receive faxes

I can no longer receive faxes! I consistently get error message 281. My bookkeeper and I exchange faxes multiple times a week and it has always worked in the past. She is able to send and receive faxes from her machine. I am able to send faxes to her, but I cannot receive any faxes. All other functions (i.e. printing, copying, scanning, and sending faxes) are still working.

This means there are noise on the line, or you are using a non traditional phone line like from a cable company.
Check with your phone company first.
On the fax, try the following:
turn off ECM (Error Correction Mode)
set a slower transmission speed

My N97 is no longer able to send outgoing e-mail t...

After a hard reset, my N97 is no longer able to send outgoing e-mail through my Gmail account. I had to set up my e-mail account again on the N97 after the hard reset. I created the e-mail settings with the mailbox guide. I can retrieve my e-mail messages but I am no longer able to send a new e-mail message.
Now, when I create a new e-mail message (Options, Create message, E-mail) and I select "Send" after creating the message, the N97 keeps trying to connect to my mailbox and gives up after several minutes.
Before the hard reset, I had no problems receiving and sending e-mail messages on my N97, using my Gmail account. What should I do to make it send new e-mail messages?
Solved!

Sounds like something is wrong in your settings,
Either delete the account from your phone and set it up again or use the G-Mail website help to find the correct settings and manualy check and adjust your phones outgoing settings to match
= =
I already tried those without working. I have deleted the account from my phone and set it up again. Also, I used the G-Mail website Help to find the correct settings and manualy check and adjust my phone's outgoing settings to match. It is not sending the outgoing e-mail messages. I keep getting this notice: Connecting to mailbox. After a while it stops without sending the e-mail message.
It wasn't like that before the hard reset.

I'm not able to send emails with mail.ru. Receiving and reading is not a problem. When I create a email with mail.ru its not possible to send it although its stored in my mail.ru account as "still to be send". What can it be??

I'm not able to send emails with mail.ru. Receiving is not a problem. Creating a mail is also not a problem and the mail will be stored at mail.ru as still to be send, only problem is its not possible to send. I noticed the buttons for sending change colour when used but they don't perform. What it is?

Don't know what changed, but all of a sudden able to send emails by mail.ru ...... sorry for bothering.

I am no longer able to send emails from within iPad apps.

I always used to be able to send files with attachments by email from within iPad apps like Adobe Reader or Pages. Used to work but now it doesn't - and this for all apps all at once. It gets to the point where it has prepared the email, but if you press send, it says "Could not save or send message". It also doesn't matter which email account I use - result always the same. It's a real pain as this was a good way of editing a word file and then emailing it to myself.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

I want to ensure you're able to stay connected using your Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD! When did this problem begin? In what zip code are you experiencing this? Do you get an error message when attempting to send a text? Are you using a downloaded text messaging application or are you using the preinstalled text messaging application?
Please try removing and reinserting the SIM Card http://vz.to/1jxFQVZ and retesting. Please let me know so that I can further assist. Thanks!

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Can you send email from that account on another device?
- You can try deleing the account from the iPod and reentering the settings.

Able to send fax, but cannot receive fax... I have a HP Officejet 4500 G510g-m fax

Officejet 4500 G510g-m (fax)... I am able to send faxes out without a hitch, but cannot receive... When someone is trying to send me a fax, the machine rings and I can view the fax number but nothing comes thru ... I also made sure that "my device" had the correct device checked... any suggestions

Hello @Gibbs715,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand that you are having a problem receiving faxes.
I would like to help.
Double check that the 'Auto Answer' is turned on.
Press the Setup button () on the control panel of the product.
Press the Right Arrow button () to select Fax Settings, and then press OK.
Press the Right Arrow button () to select Answer Options, and then press OK.
Press the Right Arrow button () to select Auto Answer, and then press OK.
Press the Right Arrow button () to select On, and then press OK.
Have you ran a fax diagnostic test?
Load plain white paper into the tray.
Press the Setup button ().
Press the Right Arrow () to select Tools, and then press the OK button.
Press the Right Arrow () to select Run Fax Test, and then press the OK button. The product displays the status of the test and prints a report.
Also, if there is a voicemail service on your phone line, it could be intercepting the fax and preventing the 4500 form receiving the fax.

why am I no longer able to send text messages on Skype

In order to send SMS messages (to non-iPhone/iPad users), you need to have your iPad connected to an iPhone. Both devices need to be logged into the same Apple ID. On the iPhone, go to Settings>Messages>Text Message Forwarding and select your iPad.

Problem on sending fax with Apple USB modem

Hello everyone,
I use my macmini to manage faxes to help my father's business, as fax is one of the most important mean of communication to our clients. While I can only receive fax from outside to my mac, but I cannot send fax from my mac through "Send PDF" option, it just stop working, and "Waiting for modem to become available" without using my telephone-line. It is weird when I plug it into my macbook that it works.
Look forward to your advice. Thank you,
Victor Tang

I am having problems sending and receiving faxes, too, and have been working with AppleCare level 2. They are off for a couple of days, and the solution is nowhere in sight. They did capture information from my system as I tried to fax, and sent it to engineering. They have determined that I am not getting a dial tone.
When I connect my phone to the jack, I do get a dial tone and can talk on the phone (which I do frequently). I have been provided with two additional new Apple USB modems to try to see if that would fix the problem. It did not make any difference which of the three modems I use, I cannot send or receive faxes. Yesterday, I booted up my old iMac (OS X 10.4.11 with a collapsing hard drive, but an internal modem). I attached this computer to the same phone jack and was able to freely send faxes - every single try.
I downloaded and set up the application PageSender just to see if it was the fax software (I have been trying to just use what came with my MacBook Pro). Using the Apple USB external modem (as I have had to do with this computer and operating system), I could not send any faxes - could not get a dial tone, according to PageSender.
I, therefore, believe that the problem is with the external modem and/or the extensions that operate the external modem.
I did try what you have suggested above - the substitution of the IOSerialFamily.kext:
I partitioned my harddrive into two partitions HD and HD_2. I loaded OS X 10.5.5 (from my CD) onto the second partition. I then copied the IOSerialFamily.kext on my thumb drive (from OS X 10.5.5 the version was 92). Then I upgraded to 10.5.6, and copied the ioSerialFamily.kext on my thumb drive - this time with 10.5.6 the version was 93. I went back to my first partition where I have 10.5.7 (version 94) and tried to transfer version 93 IOSerialFamily.kext to the extensions. As soon as I tried to mount the Apple USB modem I received the following message:
"System extension cannot be used
The system extension”/system/Library/Estensions/IOSerialFamily.kext/contents/PlugIns/Motor olaSM56KUSB.kext was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact the product’s vendor for an update."
At that point I tried to exchange the version 93 with the one that I removed - version 94, but I continued to get the same message. I decided to reinstall 10.5.7 again hoping that this would solve the message problem. No such luck! I did now have version 94, but the same error message. At this point, I tried a permissions repair. This solved the error problem... but I was still not able to send or receive faxes, because the fax programs could detect not dial tone.
Because I have never sent or received faxes with this computer - only my iBook (10.4.11), I decided to go back to the second partition on my computer and see if I could send a fax from the macBook Pro with 10.5.6. The results are sporadic. I had to try several times, and occasionally I would get a dial tone and could send the fax, but more often, I could not. There was no difference in any of the 2 modems I tried (by now I had returned 1 to the Apple Store), or whether I used the front USB port or the rear USB port. The sending of a fax with MacBook Pro and 10.5.6 was not consistent or reliable and I could only occasionally get a dial tone... with 10.5.7 I can never get a dial tone.
According to my AppleCare representative the engineers are "on this". But I see that the original post was in November, which was prior to 10.5.7; I purchased my MacBook Pro with 10.5.5 in December, so imagine that this problem has been around through several upgrades of 10.5.
This is unbelievably frustrating! Has anyone been able to easily send and receive faxes with 10.5.5?
Chris (hopefully you are still around), did you get any error messages when you exchanged your 10.5.6 IOSerialFamily.kext for the 10.5.7 IOSerialFamily.kext - especially when you mounted- or tried to attach the external modem? If so, how did you handle that?
Sorry that this has been such a long post. I have tried to provide as much information as I could in the hopes of finding a solution. Any ideas???
THANKS!
