None of our HP printers work woth 10.6

We're very disappointed with the way 10.6 has worked out in our office. We have an HP Laserjet connected to our Airport Extreme router, and none of our three office computers can find it on the network. We also have an HP Deskjet 4180 printer/scanner connected to our main computer (a USB connection) and that won't work either because the HP printer software keeps crashing. Now we're faced with having no printers tomorrow -- very bad news indeed. How could Apple release this update without getting it right? Is it possible to somehow uninstall 10.6?

Start with http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2131363.
As for uninstalling, reinstall the bootable backup/clone or Time Machine backup you made for each machine before installing the upgrade. What? Don't have any? Then, get a bootable, external HD (preferably FireWire, since it's 40-50% faster than USB 2 and designed for data transfers) for each machine, make a bootable backup/clone before updating/upgrading, and ensure that it's bootable and works like the original. That allows you to revert to the previous good state without having to reinstall anything. See these for details:

http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/installswupdates.html

If you only have a Time Machine backup, insure that you can reliably restore it to another disk/volume/partition before updating/upgrading.

  • All our subreports not working

    Post Author: dinome2000
    CA Forum: General
    Big Problem - we just recently loaded KB937059 - which is the "Visual Studio .NET 2003 Service Pack 1 Crystal Reports Security Update" and now NONE of our Crystal reports work that have a subreport incorporated into them - we now get the following error:
    error BC30456: 'Subreports' is not a member of 'CrystalRpt.Form1183A'.
    Is there a fix for it?  it is like the crystal.subreports reference disappeared.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Tom,
    Thanks for your help. I unplugged the power from the computer and even took out the internal battery and let it sit overnight. It still did not work.
    I took the computer to the nearby Apple store today for repair. I was told that most likely the motherboard would have to be replaced at a cost of about $600.00!!!!!!!!
    Then I was told that I should get a USB PCI card. I never thought of that.
    That did the trick. My computer is working fine via the PCI card.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Since upgrading, both our wireless printers are still visible, but OSX will not connect with them.  Both work via connecting from other sources via the same wireless router (airport).  What do I need to do to get my printing/scanning working again?

    Since upgrading, both our wireless printers are still visible, but OSX will not connect with them.  Both work via connecting from other sources via the same wireless router (airport).  What do I need to do to get my printing/scanning working again?

    First thing to try is reset Printing System:
    OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
    Next would be reset the router (power off 15 secs then back on). And, 2 minutes later, reset the printers 1 by 1.

    - Have you tried to reset yur iPod?
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -Next would be to restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
    - Last would be to restore you iPod to factory defaults/new iPod via iTunes since there may be corruption that is in your backup.

  • My printers works fine on my home network but disappears on a remote desktop terminal connection

    As I don't really know how to post a general addition to the knowledge base, I'm doing in Jeopardy style.  Here is the question to the above answer.  Well close enough.
    Many people have reported all over the net issues with printers working just fine on their home network  but disappearing when they connect to a server via RDT.  There are some legit updates needed where windows did not see anything but LPT and COM ports for printer re-direction assignment.  There are Mr. Fix it's for those and registry patches.  When all of that fails, the information highway seems to dead end.
    Here is what I learned today via 2 specific printers:  HP1022 and HP2840 lasjerjets.
    After many months of frustration and 7 1/2 hours with Microsoft advanced prof support I've finally pinned down this printer and a slew of others.  This problem as far as I have come across deals exclusively with HP printers.  In simple terms:  the drivers are flawed.  This 1022 is a prime example.  It prints locally and via TCP/IP just fine. I have about 7 other printers and dummy printers in my printer folder.  Enter a remote desktop session and ALL of them populate except the 1022.  This shows that the hooks and RDT finders are locating your printers and installing them properly as remote printers.  All except the 1022. 
      Log out of your RDT session: goto the local 1022 setup and change the printer driver to a PCL driver.  I used a 1200 PCL driver.  Now log back into your RDT server and hockus pocus! there is your printer.  Totally un-usable because the driver will not run this printer.  Caveat:  each time I did this XP crashed (I couldn't get to the properties TAB anymore -- I had to un-install the 1022 and then re-install it with at least 1 reboot in the process)
    Moving on we go to the HP OfficeJet/LajerJet2840.  Same thing.  It won't pass through as remote printer in RDT.  Go local.  Set the printer driver to AppleLaserWriter8500 and boom. (same logout, change, back in steps) and your LJ2840 shows up and works.
    While I will have to wait until tomorrow I am betting that this will fix the exact same problem with the HP Officejet 8500A all in one with the exact same problem.
    Hey HP?  Whats with the drivers??
    Another work around if you have a static enough environment is to install your local printer that will not show up under RDT on the server, and then point the port to your fixed IP on your router, and passthru port 9100 to your locally installed printer that is failing.  You can now be on RDT and chooses the network printer that is printing to the TCP address of your home (or office) router.

  • Printing from MacBook Pro 17" Mid 2010 running 10.8.2 ... persistent inability for Apple MacBook Pro to print to a variety of HP printers (have run Windows and Ubuntu on Parallels and same printers work) ... what is going on with Apple printer support?

    What is wrong with Apple's support of printers ... inability for MacBook Pros to connect with HP and other printers. Yet the same printers
    work under Mac OS based Parallels (running Windows or Ubuntu) - WHY?  Finger pointing (HP . Apple ... Apple > HP) ... who cares ... FIX IT ... this has gone on for months now. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?

    HP discontinued support (read: stopped updating their OS X printer drivers) for a lot of their printers back when Apple released Snow Leopard and dropped even more when Lion was released.  This is an HP problem, not an Apple problem.
    Exacty what  printers are you having problems with?
    If any of your printers are on the HPIJS list, try installing the HPIJS drivers (there are 3 files to install, and it won't hurt anything).   This solved the issue for me on Snow Leopard, Lion and Mt. Lion with my older HP printers.

    Hi sunnylordz,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you have no service on the iPhone. It looks like you have already done some troubleshooting. There is one step you did not mention trying that i think is worth trying. 
    If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
    Remove the SIM card. If the SIM card is damaged, worn, or bent, or if it's too big or small for the SIM tray, contact your carrier for a new one. Then reinsert the SIM card.
    Cheers,
    Mario

  • Updating a DB table with only non-empty values of a work area

    Hi everybody,
    Is that possible in ABAP to update a table in the database with a work area, but only with non-empty values of this work area?
    Example:
    data: ls_custom type ZCUSTOMERS_0.
    ls_custom-CUSTOMER = '20'.
    ls_custom-LASTNAME = 'MyName'.
    ls_custom-FIRSTNAME = ' '.
    ls_custom-CURRENCY = ' '.
    update ZCUSTOMERS_0 from ls_custom.  *" I want that the update clause don't do the update with FIRSTNAME  and CURRENCY fields because they have empty values*
    If it's possible, how to do it?
    Thanks & regards,
    Abdel

    Total Questions:  81 (66 unresolved)
    Hi,
    To my understanding you mean if the database table has values
    customer         20
    lastname          somename
    firstname         firstname
    currency          INR
    so now after this
    data: ls_custom type ZCUSTOMERS_0.
    ls_custom-CUSTOMER = '20'.
    ls_custom-LASTNAME = 'MyName'.
    ls_custom-FIRSTNAME = ' '.
    ls_custom-CURRENCY = ' '.
    update ZCUSTOMERS_0 from ls_custom.
    you want the result as
    customer         20
    lastname          Myname
    firstname         firstname
    currency          INR
    Is it so? Then Normal update
    data: ls_custom type ZCUSTOMERS_0.
    ls_custom-CUSTOMER = '20'.
    ls_custom-LASTNAME = 'MyName'.
    update ZCUSTOMERS_0 from ls_custom.
    would do that.
    Thanks,
    Sri.

  • HT201263 None of the above have worked. Ipad completely bricked. This began when merely updating IOS software as instructed. Now Apple want to charge me for using their crappy software as directed. Surely this is not only immoral but potentially illegal.

    Read: iPad Troubleshooting Assistant
    That procedure eventually leads you to the need to restore it.
    Make sure you are following the instructions in this procedure to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
    Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. Be patient since it sometimes takes several of these attempts before you are successful.
    If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links. 
    Select the iPad in iTunes and choose "restore from backup". This assumes you have a backup. If you do not, you will have to download all your purchased iTunes content again. You do not have to pay for anything you already purchased.
    If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help.

    What multifunction (all-in-one) BW laserjet printers work with Mac OS 10.9 and 10.8? - Printing, scanning and faxing!
    I had a HP3052 whith a scaner message error 5 which can't print anymore. Anyway scanning with this HP is not supported anymore. So looking into the huge HP compatibility list on the web I see no good choice:

    The new HP LaserJet M127fn MFP  duplex is not even on this list...
    I prefer laser than ink printers (I hate buying cartridges every month or have the system stuck with dry ink when not used for a month).
    There are some good brother laserprinters, e.g. MFC7860DW, but PC-Fax doesn't work on Mac (I believe).
    Thanks to anybody with some good ideas.

    None of these solutions are working. I plug in my newly restored iPhone and under the category in iTunes, I have the option to click it. When I do so, I get an empty box on the screen, below a Apple logo on the left and a padlock on the right. Any ideas to solutions? I puzzled the people at my local Apple store.
    Other than not connecting, my phone is fully functional. I can place calls and send messages, get online and fi my settings the way I want. I just cannot connect to any iTunes (I've tried three)!
