Officejet 8600 won't pull from Tray 2 after Mac OS update

I recently installed the Mac OSX 10.10 Yosemite update. Immediately after, my HP Officejet 8600 all-in-one would not pull from the optional second tray. There is a 10/22/14 driver update that says it is for OSSX 10.10, but does not fix the problem. After trying every single solution I could think of, including deleting all printers from my system, repairing permissions, installing the new driver, uninstalling and re-installing the second tray, among other things, nothing worked.
The problem appears to be that every time I print, it unselects the "Optional Paper Tray Input" setting from the OS settings. One work around is to go in and make sure that box is checked each time I print, which is a pain and only works about 80% of the time.
The printer is an office printer and Tray 1 is envelopes. While I could put regular paper in Tray 1, that would be unfair to the other people in the office who use the printer and would need to manually do an envelope each time.
I called HP support and they basically told me that it was a bug that was not currently fixed. They said they would e-mail me when a new updated driver is released (I'll be holding my breath for that). I'm posting this here hoping that admins notice it and get moving on that update so that I can get my printer back.

I have the same problem as everyone else in this thread. I've been on another thread, here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printing-Issues-Troubleshooting/HP-8600-won-t-print-from-tray-2-in-upda... .
I have spent hours of time on the phone and in chat sessions with HP, then Apple, and then HP again. The HP reps made it clear that the problem is in the HP update that was issued to work with OS 10.10, and that a fix would be coming soon. That was over a month ago, and still nothing.
Since HP reps seem to monitor this thread, could someone from HP inform us as to when there will be a solution? The last HP software update for this printer was October 22nd, so you've had plenty of time to fix this problem, which HP has repeatedly promised to do, but failed to do.

If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades.

Why do my texts come from my icloud after the ios7 update?

why do my texts come from icloud.com after the ios7 update?

Basically, your iMessage settings have become slightly off due to the update.
Go into Settings -> Messages -> Send/Receive.
You should see your phone number and your email address. Given your description, I would imagine that only your Email Address is checked. If you CAN (it's probably greyed out), check your phone number off, and it should work.
Now, operating under the assumption that you can't just turn the phone number back on:
1.) Go into Settings -> Messages, and turn iMessage off.
2.) Go into Settings -> iTunes and Appstore, and tap on your Apple ID at the top, and tap 'Sign Out'
3.) Power your phone off completely (Press and hold the sleep/wake key, then swipe to power off).
4.) Power your phone back on.
5.) Go back to Settings -> iTunes and Appstore, and sign back into your Apple ID.
6.) Go back to Settings -> Messages, and turn iMessage back to ON. Wait for iMessage service to activate.
7.) Go into Send/Receive again, and verify that your phone number is now checked off.
8.) Send a text message to a friend with an iPhone to verify that the issue is resolved.
NOTE: If you do not know your Apple ID/Password, reset it at http://iforgot.apple.com.

HP Officejet Pro 8630 won't print from tray 2; says there's no paper

Action: Print from tray 2.
Expected Results: Paper feeds from tray 2 and prints.
Actual Results: Printer displays "out of paper" dialog.
Notes: Ever since I purchased the Officejet Pro 8630 six or eight months ago, tray 2 has not functioned. It says there's no paper in that tray. I've tried multiple types of letter sized paper. I've inspected the bottom of the main printer unit and the top of tray 2 for signs of damage; there doesn't seem to be any.
Tray 1 works just fine. It's actually a fantastic printer. The best I've owned. If only Tray 2 would work.

Looking for OfficeJet 8600 pro plus replacement paper trays

Where can I purchase replacement paper trays for the OfficeJet 8600 Pro Plus printer?
I am NOT looking for the add-on paper tray unit, but a replacement for the primary tray. We shuffle various types of paper and envelopes in and out of the tray throughout the day, and we would instead like to keep several extra trays loaded with specialty paper to reduce wear on the primary tray.
Suggestiosn?
Thanks!

I searched in the online stores available by HP and was unable to find this part. However, I was able to find that the part is available through HP Tech Support by calling in.
Click here to access the full list of HP Tech Support contact numbers.
The part number is CM749-60036 for the main tray assembly for the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus. This part is, currently, around $25 usd, but prices are subject to change.
Hope this helps.

OfficeJet 8600 won't scan via RDP

Hello everyone
We've just installed a new multifunctional here in our company.
The computers specified bellow are running Windows XP service pack 3 x86. Our printer is an OfficeJet 8600 all-in-one.
We are using it through cable, in our network, for specific computers, which actually are virtual machines in our main server, accessed by thinclients that runs on Win7 Pro x86/64.
So we configured the printer in the web interface without any problem, we also installed the latest software version in our virtual machines and the printer was recognized successfully and is working properly. We did not install anything refered to this printer in our thinclients.
Our issue is the scanner. Whenever we try to open it, when we're accessing the virtual machine via remote desktop protocol, the device is not found and Windows shows up an error saying:
"It's not possible to scan - It was not possible to find the software of digitalization or the scanner is not connected. Make sure the scanner and the software of digitalization are installed properly."
If we try to scan via the virtual machine manager program, which equals to access the virtual machines locally, the scanner works great.
If we try to scan via a local computers, running either windows xp or 7, the scan never fails.
But as soon as we access any machine via RDP it fails, even if it's not a virtual machine, but a local machine accessed this way, we get that error.
We updated the printer firmware to the latest one, avaliable on HP's site - CLP1CN1304AR.
We also tested with firewalls disabled, unsuccessfully.
We are working with fixed ip on it. We have the wifi turned off. We are not using web services. We did not register the product in the installation procedure.
A curious notable thing is when we try to scan from the printer to the virtual machine, the display shows an error after some time saying that the computer could not be found. I don't know if this could be related to the main issue itself, im just pointing as a possible clue.
We would be thankful for any help or idea to solve our problem!
Thanks for attention, i will be watching the topic!

My Air won't do anything, I can't move the mouse and the keys won't respond. It came after an OS update from the Mac Appstore. HELP!

After an OS update, from the Mac Appstore my Air won't do anything.
I updated OSX from the appstore, and I restarted my laptop. Now I'm in the choose profile screen and nothing happends. At all. I can't move the mouse, the keys aren't responding etc.

You should also ask this in the MacBook Air forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

Aperture won't export work copies (apparently after OS X update to 10.6.6)

Hi folks!
I'm really stuck. Some weeks ago (maybe since the 10.6.6 update) Aperture is behaving strange. As I do not use Aperture every day these problems were not discovered in one day. So first I thought maybe some cache or whatever is "irritated" and a reboot would fix everything. Then I thought back and now think that all these problems started after the 10.6.6 update.
- Can't import from the harddrive (some folders open, others won't) - no spinning beachball but no import either.
- Can't export work copies (exporting "originals" works) - sometimes the spinning beachball appears instantly, other times no reaction after right-clicking on a thumbnail or photo to export-work copy and a spinning beachball shows up on the third attempt(!)
- and some other things (for example I get a spinning beachball when I click on the "import" tab in the preference
What did I try? After sucking out google and this forum for these problems I did the following in this order:
- Repaired permissions in Apertures library with Aperture-tool (command-option during Aperture start up) - no success
- Repaired database in Aperture library with Aperture-tool - no success
- Recreated database in Aperture library with Aperture-tool - no success
- Reinstalled Aperture from DVD and 3.1.1 update - no success
- Removed .plist files as described in a KB-article - no success
- Moved away all installed plugins - no success
- Moved Aperture to the trash, made OS X "forget" Aperture and reinstalled Aperture and 3.1.1 update - no success
- (Re-)installed 10.6.6 combo-update as suggested in this forum - no success
- Played with 64- and 32-bit options - no success
I must say I am pretty p*ed-off at the moment as I can' export pictures that I really really need to prepare my honeys invitations-cards for her 40th birthday!
Any other ideas than switching to light room an photoshop?
Please help! Any hint is welcome!

Assuming your machine is within recommended specs and there is at least 15% HD space available, I am leaning towards a bad 10.6.6 or Aperture install.
You mention having run the 10.6.6 combo and re-installing Aperture, so not sure what route you would want to go:
1 - Try removing all trace of Aperture (manually) and installing again.
2 - Try booting to safe boot mode (although, I have noticed sluggish performance on my machine after doing this a couple times, so am reluctant to recommend).
3 - The time consuming clean install of 10.6.6 which is a last resort - IMHO.
Other than that, I can only hope someone else has a better option for you.

Problem getting correct data from MS Access after doing an Update

Hi all,
I have a problem getting correct data after doing an update. This is the scenario
I am selecting some(Eg: All records where Column X = �7� ) records and update a column with a particular value (SET Column X = �c� ) in all these records by going through a while loop. In the while loop I add these records to a vector too, and pass it as the return value.
After getting this return value I go through a for loop and get each record one by one from the DB and check if my previous update has actually happened. Since No errors were caught while updating DB, I assume all records are updated properly but my record set shows one after another as if it has not been updated. But if I open the DB it is actually updated.
This does not happen to all records, always it shows like this
1st record     Mode = �c�
2nd record     Mode = �7�
3st record     Mode = �c�
4nd record     Mode = �7�
9th record     Mode = �c�
10th record     Mode = �7�
I am relatively new to java and this is someone elses code that I have to modify,So I am not sure if there some thing wrong in the code too
//Here is the method that gets records and call to update and add to vector
public static Vector getCanceledWorkOrders() throws CSDDBException{
//Variable declaration
try {
    objDBConn = DBHandler.getCSDBCon();
    strSQL = "SELECT bal bla WHERE [Detailed Mode])=?)";
    objStmt = objDBConn.prepareStatement(strSQL);
    objStmt.setString(1, '7');
    objWOPRs = objStmt.executeQuery();
    while (objWOPRs.next()) {
     //Add elements to a vector by getting from result set
      //updating each record as PROCESSING_CANCELLED_WO(c)
      iRetVal = WorkOrderDetailingPolicy.updateRecordStatus(objPWODP.iWorkOrderNumber, objPWODP.strPersonInformed, EMSConstants.PROCESSING_CANCELLED_WO);

Can someone verify video output from dock connector after 4.x update?

Someone told me that they can no longer play videos on your TV (with a video cable) after iOS4.x updates. I recently paid $50+ for an Apple video cable to all me to play videos from my iPhone on my TV. I am still on 3.1.2. I want to make sure the upgrade doesn't break that.
Thanks.

Can someone with a 3G iPhone, running iOS4.1 verify this for me, please?

ITunes won't load on Windows 7 after the last update

iTunes won't load on my Windows 7 machine after the last update. There is no error, but the window opens and says "Checking iTunes library" for a while, and then pops up iTunes. When it comes up, I can see it but it won't load or let me interact with it. The window I can see is my podcast library and it suggests it's accessing the iTunes Store. Right clicking, alt-tabbing seem to have no effect, and I can only shut it down in Task Manager. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck (...twice). Any other ideas?

Hello Aristoph,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iTunes for Windows issues. If you follow the directions in order it may help:

Officejet pro 8600 won't scan through tray

Good morning,
My printer won't scan anything through the the tray on top. I currently have an "HP Officejet Pro 8600" that I use for my mac. When I first set it up over 6 months ago I had no problem scanning anything through the tray on top but now after upgrading to Yosemite I have had nothing but problems. When I first installed Yosemite I wasn't able to print or scan but after fixing it with some updates I'm still not able to scan any documents through the tray only through the glass scanner I can scan things.
Any Ideas?
Also when I choose HP scan it wont let change the presets from pictures to documents until after I have scanned something through.

I followed the steps with The Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) Does Not Pick Up Paper - cleaning the rollers and it fixed it. Thank you!

New HP Officejet 8600 won't scan??

I just installed my #8600 pro into my wireless network, and the printer is working fine from the computer, but when I attempt to scan to my computer I get a message in the printer window (to scan to computer, make sure the feature is enabled)! When I ran the printer disc, I skipped the fax setup, but don't remember seeing a seperate procedure for setting up the scan feature. Did I miss something on setup?? Can I rerun the software disc??

Officejet 8600 won't print since Yosemite upgrade

I have a problem installing the HP driver since I updated Yosemite. I get these messages.
So I can't install properly.
I have delted the printer in the system preferences, repaired disk permissions, and reinstalled 3.0 driver. The messages above are what I receive during installation.
What I am experiencing regarding printing is my second print job won't print until I put the computer to sleep and then open it up again. The weird thing is is it will print my first job even after it has printed it once.
Here is the print list.
This is what I see... Opening printer connection shows at the top all the time. The job that is listed will print and then say 100% complete when it is finished printing. Then when I send another job this is what the list looks like:
The second job listed won't print until I put the computer to sleep and then it will print.

Hi,
From the Applications folder open the Hewlett-Packard folder and follow the Uninstall option to remove the software.
Next click the Go menu (you may have to click of Finder for the go menu to appear), then click on Computer and open the active volume of your OS, that will more likely be listed as Macintosh-HD.
Open the System folder, then open the Library folder
(If the library folder is hidden and not listed, click on Go > Go to folder, type Library and click on OK.
Open the Extentions folder and locate both of the MaxtorPowSecDriver.kext and the IOFireWireMxBt.kext files, copy those files to your desktop and then delete it from the Extensions folder (for backup porpuses be sure not to delete those till you are fully up and running with no issues).
Next repair the disk permissions as following:
1. Open the the Applications folder.
2. Go to the Utilities folder.
3. Double-click on Disk Utility.
4. Select the hard drive containing the boot volume.
5. Go to the First Aid tab and select Repair Disk Permissions.
Note: This process may take several minutes depending on the Mac and amount of permissions that need to be repaired. The Progress Log will indicate when the process has been completed.
Once you are done, download and install the following software:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=oj-125213-3&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
Finally, reboot your Mac and ensure that everything is up and running.. once you have verified it delete the files copied to your desktop.
Please let me know of any difference,
