Officejet 6500A E710n scanner issue with new MacBook Pro

I've had the all in one about a year and recently bought the Mac book pro running on latest OSX-10.9  Mavericks.
i installed the relevant printer drivers and it is printing (wirelessly) but does not recognise scanner anywhere. i looked for a separate scanner driver but found none. is it possible to scan from my Mac using this scanner and how do I set it up?

Hi AnastasiaK,
I understand that you cannot scan with the Officejet 6500A and the Mavericks operating system. I will try my best to help you resolve this issue.
Here is a link for How to Scan: OS X v10.9.
You may rather scan with Apples Print and Scan Window, follow the steps below.
Place the item that you want to scan on the scanner glass, or load it into the automatic document feeder (ADF) if your printer has one.
Click the Apple menu, and then click System Preferences
Click Print & Scan .
Click your printer in the left pane.
Click Scan , and then click Open Scanner .
Click Show Details . The details of the scan display, including options to change scan settings.
Figure 1: Example of the Show Details scanning screen
Change any scan settings as necessary, and then click Scan .
OR
Use the following steps to scan from Apple Image Capture.
Place the item that you want to scan on the scanner glass, or load it into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) if your printer has one.
In the Applications folder or from the Dock, click Image Capture .
Select your printer from the list. If your printer connects to a network, select it from the Shared list. The details of the scan display.
If a ' Software for this device is not installed ' message displays after you select your printer, click Install , and then follow the instructions to complete the installation.
Click Show Details to view scan settings and options
You may want to use the Airprint driver rather then the HP driver.
I hope this helped.
Let me know,
I worked on behalf of HP.

  • Sync issues with new MacBook Pro

    Just got a new MacBook Pro and my Iphone 3gs won't sync, Itunes crashes every time I try to sync. Has anyone had a similar problem or know of a solution? Thanks

    Welcome to the discussions,
    did you already reinstall iTunes and Apple Mobile Device Service? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747
    Do you have any podcasts or slideshows on your phone? If yes, try to delete them before your sync. Also copy your pictures to your mac and delete them on the phone.

  • Any known ID CS5.5 issues with new MacBook Pro (mid 2012)?

    ID CS 5.5 Version 7.5.3
    Mac OS X Version 10.7.4
    MacBook Pro 13 in (mid 2012)
    ID crashes while deleting pages.
    No such issues with my previous MacBook Pro (mid 2009) or a 27 in IMAC (mid 2010). Same software versions. Any ideas?

    Yeah, I was kinda worried since it is new. I thought maybe I could somehow adjust the brightness on the screen to make the bottom and corners brighter. And perhaps it was a software issue that was causing the keyboard to malfunction. And definitely have no clue about the headphone jack noises. And the bent display. Hmmm. I guess I will call AppleCare.

  • ISight issues with new macbook pro Retina ?

    Hi all, since I have my new MPB with Retina display I have been having some issues with the isight camera, when it first boots in photobooth of facetime sometimes the screen (from the camera) is all blue or green and with some weird line and then it stabilizes for a while but the image is all grainy and looks cheap. The guy at the apple hotline told me to reset the SMC and it seemed to have improved a bit but it's still not that good !
    Any ideas on what could be happening ?
    Thank you all

    You're welcome - I Googled "Macintosh webcams" and came up with quite a few different units.
    Good luck,

  • Battery issue with new MacBook Pro 13 inches

  • Projection Issues with NEW MacBook Pro

    My slide programs are 1024x768 jpegs at 72ppi that I run through Adobe Bridge's Slideshow. They look beautiful on all my computer screens and look good projected using my older Mac Book laptop using the DVI/VGA cable. The projector I am using is a Hitachi CPX5. Now ... I have a new Mac Book Pro laptop that utilizes the different newer type cable (mini display port/VGA) and the projected jpeg slides just don't look as good as they do with my older laptop. This is very frustrating because one reason I bought the new laptop was for presentations. I tried all the different resolution settings including 'best for projector'. The images look more pixelated or contrasty (like a low res image has been over-sharpened) with the new laptop. Any ideas why it looks better with my old (slow) laptop?
    I noticed there are only 3 resolutions in addition to 'best for projector' ; 1680 x 1050, 1280 x 800, 1152 x 720. There is no 1024 x 768. The Hitachi's native resolution is 1024 x 768 and so are my slides.
    The graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB

    Hi paulshamoon, welcome to Apple Discussions!
    i know that apple wont exchange it for me with only one dead pixel
    That's usually correct but you will never know unless you try. Were I you I would ask anyway, not knowing the outcome certainly. You can't really lose anything.
    half an hour into using it and setting everything up it just reboots out of no where, very bothersome
    Has this problem recurred since the original issue?
    battery life is HORRIBLE. It barely lasts over an hour on a full charge
    If you are using the machine under normal usage conditions then this is not normal behavior. However, if you're running the machine at full brightness with the CPU pegged doing video encoding or something similar, then it could be very normal. Under what operating conditions did you get about one hour of battery life?
    Will i be able to exchange it for a new one?
    Possibly. The battery issue alone could get you a replacement, but I am not sure of Apple's official policy with regards to these new batteries. In the past they would have just given you a new battery, but since the batteries are no longer user-replaceable I am not sure if they would replace the battery themselves or just give you a new machine.
    I know apple is really strict
    I wouldn't describe them as strict at all. They have always been very understanding when I've had to deal with them. I would give them a chance to make it right. You have the best chance with the battery issue unless your restarting problem recurs often.
    Best of luck!

  • Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

    Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

    Yes, BUT...
    ... there are many problems that are really easy to eliminate by replacing the Hard drive, including ones that have nothing to do with actual Drive Hardware failure. These include corrupted install of Mac OS X, its EFI partition, clobbered partition tables, or the appearance of Bad Blocks in a critical area.
    Any of these problems can sometimes be eliminated by re-initializing the entire drive and writing Zeroes, and re-installing from scratch. The trouble is, this process takes hours to complete, and is not guaranteed to be successful -- you may still need a new drive after all that effort.
    I learned from my Plumber that consumers have no appetite for solutions that might work, and detest return visits for any related problems whatsoever. You or your friend may have had your drive replaced, not because it actually failed, but because the situation was troublesome, and the provider thought you would not tolerate anything less than a crisp, complete fix on the first attempt. And based on the cost of technician time, it may have even been cheaper that way.

  • Multiple Issues with my Macbook Pro

    Jan 2011- Received my Macbook Pro 15 inch (late 2011 version)
    Feb 2011- Overheating issue, laptop started running very slowly without any applications open
    Feb 2011- Sent it to Apple US, test was run, no issue found by Apple, they re-installed the OS, piece returned back, seemed to be running normally
    Early 2012- Major battery issue, battery would suddenly drop down from 90% to 25% in 5 minutes with hardly any applications open
    From late 2012 to present- When the laptop is put to sleep (with screen closed) and is opened after half an hour or longer, the mouse cursor remains stuck on the screen after waking it up. The only way to continue using the laptop is to restart it so that the mouse starts moving again. Every time the laptop is woken up after sleep mode, the speed of all running applications comes down noticeably.
    Mid 2013- Replaced the Battery for Rs. 8000/- After using it just for two years
    Late 2013- Laptop fan runs at a high speed even though there are no applications open on the system, suspected Temperature sensor issue, Activity monitor shows a particular kernel that is taking up a huge amount of CPU load.
    I have only faced issues with my macbook pro and it still doesn't end,Is there any way I can ask for an out of warranty replacement or atleast if there is a permanent solution at an affordable cost? Apple as a brand has set a benchmark , it is only fitting that as loyal apple customers we expect products to exceed expectations in terms of performance and longeivity and not pose as a problem at every turn.There isn't any sense in going on spending on a laptop that costs a bomb already!!!

    While you were on the warranty or if you still have it, you should check out the Apple Store. When you had noticed these problems earlier, you should have immediatly reacted upon them, rather than waiting.

    What do you mean "Leave them my laptop again"? do you mean you have had it worked on before? for the same problem or a different one?
    You need to take it in to Apple ASAP. No matter how long they have it, you want it fixed and fixed correctly.

    Just found a solution to this problem via HP technical support by changing my Officejet 6700's dynamic IP address to a static IP address:

  • Facebook problems with new macbook pro.

    Facebook problems with new macbook pro. I can't publish photo albums to timeline. I can't share items onto timeline. Photos I'm tagged in don't appear on my timeline. Any help?

    Yes! Been living in a hellish nightmare since Sept-Oct. Unlike you, however, Apple has been of no help. They say the iPad is unhackable, plist and crash reports are none of my business and who understands them anyway, their route tracing apps are probably not reliable. The best they could do was wipe the iPad clean. Lost photos they said would be in the cloud....
    Almost immediately was back in somebody's VPN, their remote controller, video, audio, working. Got the purple buddy for the first time today. I have been invaded, my iPad no longer feels like my own, I have lost thanksgiving, Christmas, new year trying to track down the invaders, signed up for a Cisco course, set/reset passwords.
    I don't know who else to contact... Or what next to do.
    I've read similar frustration in other posts, scattered around the support communities. Yours is the only one that has worked toward a solution.
    How did you get anyone at apple to look at your logs and acknowledge there is a problem?
    Would be happy for a suggestion on how to proceed. Already been the apple store genius and tech on phone route.
