Photosmart 5520 - Scan Option disappears from Mac OS X 10.9 to 10.10 update

I have been searching this problem for the last 2 hours. I have already installed, deleted, reinstalled drivers from this website and Apples site. 
Under printers and scanners in my System Preferences, I can choose and easily print from our HP 5520, but the scan option button has now disappeared from my 10.9 to 10.10 update. My wife has the exact same computer as me and we are both connected to the exact same 5520 printer, but she is still on 10.9 (scan option is available and works) and I am on 10.10 (scan option is gone and HP Scan doesnt work either).
Solutions please!
Solved... 

Hello @caking1s,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I understand since doing the Mac update from 10.9 to 10.10 now you are unable to scan with your HP Photosmart 5520.  Please go ahead and follow the steps listed below:
Scrub/ Uninstall
• Open the Applications folder > HP or Hewlett Packard folder > HP Uninstaller
• Click continue, click on one of the printers in the list.
• * Only do this step if you do not have any other HP Printers. Hold down Control, Option and Command, While holding the three buttons down,
• Click uninstall.
Reset Printing System
1. Click the Apple icon (   ), and then click System Preferences.
2. In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan  dialog box opens.
3. Right-click (or  Ctrl  +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
4. Click OK to confirm the reset.
5. Type the correct Name and Password.
6. Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol..
Repair Disk Permissions
1.On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
2.Double-click Disk Utility.
3.Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
4.Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
5.Once the repair is complete, restart the computer.
Restart the printer. Now you can download and install the printer software and install it. Click on the link below to begin the download and follow the on screen instructions:

  • Email disappeared from Mac Mail.

    Hello. Email has disappeared from Mac Mail. Running last updated Mavericks. I went back in the time machine settings to revert to the day before the mail disappeared, and each time I go in there, I can see the mail showing up. Except, when I go to revert, nothing transfers back into the account. Any advice on what is going on and how to fix it? Years of mail are now "gone."

    Okay, there is definitely an error message coming up in the log. I only selected a few messages from 2008 to restore. I selected just one of the error log messages I received (essentially one for each email it tried to restore). Thanks for all your help. As an aside, if it helps you to respond, I've just started a computer science degree, so I'm starting to feel my way around this stuff, but have a good cursory understanding. Not to say that your directions aren't just succinct and perfectly laid out!

  • Exchange Archive folder disappears from Mac Mail (Mavericks)

    My Exchange 2013 Archive mailbox folder keeps disappearing from Mac Mail (Mavericks). When it does, the mailbox/folder shows 0 messages and 0 size in the Account info box. To temporarily solve the problem, I disable the account, quit mail, and reenable the account. Then the Archive folder/mailbox reappears. This happens several times per day. By the way, the folder is still visible on Outlook Web Access and through the Outlook client. It is simply invisible to Mac Mail. Does anyone know how to solve that?

    Well, somehow, it disappeared after 10.8.2. and the following fixes which had no numbers.
    Mail startet and told me, that Mailbox is somehow adapted and now everything works fine.
    Strange....

    Creative Cloud icon disappeared from Apple Tool Bar after I installed some CC updates. Does somebody know what the problem can be?

    I had a similar issue. I closed the Cloud icon, and when I went to open it again, it just died.
    I uninstalled Adobe Creative Cloud, went to the Adobe CC download page and requested a trial copy of PS, being sure to enter my CC name and password.  It then reinstalled Adobe Creative Cloud, and all is working again (I hope).

  • External Disc Drive disappeared from Mac Mini Devices

    Hi Forum,
    my External USB2 Drive has disappeared from the devices list on my Mac Mini. When i was with the Mini i turned it off and on, Mini and CD Drive, unplugged and replugged the Drive, but i didnt appear. Ive had to come away for a few days and access the Mini remotely. It still doesnt show.
    Is there anyway to make it find it? scan USB ports? look at what is connected? Remotely or when home?
    Odd as its not done this before. And im still on OSX 10.8...

    From your description I am assuming you have not instgalled any new USB, Bluetooth, Firewire, devices, drivers, hubs, etc.? If my assumption is correct then the logical place to start is with the drive and its connections...
    Unplug and replug all USB connections. Surprisingly this may cure a number of different problems.
    Try another USB cable.
    Boot into Safe mode by holding down the Shift key after a cold boot. If the drive mounts normally then it is likley another USB device drive or device that is the problem.
    If you are connecting through a hub, connect directly to the computer. If the drive mounts normally then your hub has probably gone bad.
    If possible connect the drive to another Mac. Does it mount normally? If so then the USB port in your Mac may have gone bad. That requires a new logic board to fix.
    Reset the SMC.

  • Hp photosmart 5520 scan to email error message

    I can send from my laptop to the printer and it prints no problem
    When I try to scan from my printer to my email I get Error Message 901 cannot connect to server.
    It has worked fine until today.

     Hello catmandoo and adrastos,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums.  I understand that each of you is getting an error message when trying to use the scan to email feature of your Photosmart 5520 printer.
    There are several steps I would like you to try please.
    Please turn off your printer. 
    Please turn off your router.  If your router doesn’t have an on/off switch, please unplug the power cord from the router.
    After waiting a full 60 seconds please turn on your router (or plug it back in). 
    After the router has completed its startup routine please turn on your printer.
    After the printer has completed its startup routine, please test the scan to email feature.  If it works there no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
    Please set a manual IP address and manual DNS servers for the printer. I have included a link to another post with the steps, including screen shots on how to do this.   Don’t worry that the screen shots show a Photosmart 7510 printer, the steps are the same.
    Please test the scan to email feature.  If it works there no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
    Please call HP’s Cloud Services at 1-855-785-2777 if you live in the USA/Canada region. If you live outside the USA/Canada region please click here to find the Technical Support number for your country/region.

  • Gspeed ES Pro RAID keeps disappearing from Mac, have to re-initialize!

    UPDATED VERSION:
    MAC PRO KEEPS LOSING CONNECTION TO RAID DRIVE.
    After 9 months of organizing a documentary film edit on an external RAID drive (12TB, Raid 0. Yes, I have 2 layers of backup), I purchased the PNY Nvidia Quadro 4000 video card for the primary edit. Soon after, I began having boot up issues. The screen would freeze at various points during the startup process, requiring manual power-downs.
    Over the past two months, my computer has lost communication with the RAID 3 times, forcing me to rebuild it from my backup drives (10TB). One tech at Diskwarrior said my computer lost the partition, and that the 1s and 0s had been largely replaced with gibberish.
    The Raid becomes unrecognized by my computer in one of two ways:
    1-    After two days of copying data back over to the raid (rebuilding it), I get an error code -36, saying a file cannot be read or written, then the Raid partition disappears from disk utility and the next time I start up the computer says it doesn’t recognize my drive. The ATTO configuration tool (the card that attaches my raid to the computer) sees the drive, but my computer does not. I have to re-initialize it and start over again.
    2-    The Raid will go from being recognized to not being recognized when I reboot one day. Again, I have to re-initialize and rebuild.
    I removed the PNY Graphics card and put in the stock ATI Radeon HD 5770 it came with. On day 2 of rebuilding the RAID, I got the error -36 and the Raid disappeared from disk utility again. When I opened the raid folder, which seconds before had 10 TB of data on it, it read as zero items. So the PNY Nvidia card was NOT the problem.
    Apple has worked on the computer 3 times, running extensive hardware tests, but the same problem persists. At one point they said my blackmagic card was the problem, and more recently they said I probably have bad ram. I tried separate ram (the old 6GB my computer came with), and my computer seemed to begin booting up okay, but one day later I had the -36 error, the RAID couldn’t be recognized again and I lost the data during another rebuild. Apple even replaced the Ram Tray, but the same problem persists.
    G technology says my RAID’s hardware is fine, and ATTO, who makes the Raid card, says it looks fine to them too. This does not mean they are 100% not the problem though.
    Yesterday as I was attempting to rebuild the RAID again, I saw the -36 error come up, and files stopped copying. I immediately made a screenshot and noted the time.
    Today I spoke with a really cool tech at Apple named Ron who helped me investigate the Kernel log, and this is what it said (the RAID is called FadingWest):
    Dec  6 17:05:36 Jesses-Mac-Pro kernel[0]: hfs_swap_BTNode: invalid forward link (0xbb739311 >= 0x0000df00)
    Dec  6 17:05:36 Jesses-Mac-Pro kernel[0]: hfs: node=2717 fileID=4 volume=FadingWest device=/dev/disk3s2
    Dec  6 17:05:36 Jesses-Mac-Pro kernel[0]: hfs: Runtime corruption detected on FadingWest, fsck will be forced on next mount.
    Ron believes my problem is with the RAID card. He thinks it’s dropping the connection. So I’ve got an RMA going with ATTO for a new one.
    Here are the final things I can troubleshoot at this point:
    New RAID card (ATTO)
    New RAID drive (G-Technology)
    Motherboard / PCI lanes (Apple).
    NEW COMPUTER (Apple)
    Any ideas are appreciated. Here are the items in question:
    Mac Pro mid 2010 2x2.66 Ghz 6 core Intel Xeon OS X Lion 10.7.5
    G speed ES Pro (G Technology) – 12TB @ RAID 0
    ATTO R680 RAID card

    I found this on another help site, I think it's the trick:
    there are 2 halves to the Dock. With a bar in the middle.
    on the left side, there are 2 sections. the furthest left are the icons that will stay in the dock, then on the right side of the left half of the dock, are the temporary icons, the ones that just stay there till the program is done.
    You can freely move a temporary icon to the left and it will be come a permanent icon.
    I am reminded of the wizard of OZ here... you could always get to firefox... you just had to click your mouse (and drag an icon)..

  • HP OfficeJet 8620 Scan Options Disappeared

    I ran the scan doctor program on my scanner. When I reopened my scanner dialog through the print menu all of my options for scanning are gone. 
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled my printer twice and it has not corrected this issue. I have also restarted both my printer and computer. 

    Hi there @vks84 , Welcome to the HP Community
    I read through your post about how when you were done running the Print and Scan Doctor,  
    the scanning options were missing from the software. The type of driver is the first thing to come to my mind when I see this.
    Could you check your Devices and Printers on your computer and let me know if you have the Class Driver installed or "8620 Driver" or something similar to that?
    Check this post for screen shot examples of checking in the Devices and Printers folder: officejet Pro e All-In-One x64 print driver for Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit)
    Also, when you uninstalled the printer, did you completely restart your PC before you reinstalled? Where exactly did you run the installation from (disk, or download), and which driver did you install (post me a link if you downloaded it).

  • .mac account disappears from Mac mail

    Often I will go to my Mail app and the .Mac Account is no longer displayed.  If I quit mail and reopen, it and its folders stored there at .Mac will be displayed.

    My wife has a sub-account on our MM family pack subscription and had this issue: occasionally mail on her iPhone would appear briefly in the iPhone inbox, then disappear from the list. It never showed up in Mail.app at all. (I have the master account on this family pack and haven't had this issue… knock on wood.)
    I was also a recipient on some of those mails -- but if I forwarded them to her she still didn't get them. I had to copy the text out of the messages and paste into a new mail. That worked. So it seems there's something in the mail header (perhaps?) that causes this… yet the mails have not all been from the same person / address. In fact, mail from person "A" might do this disappearing thing today, yet mail from the same person "A" might work fine tomorrow. It's that sort of multi-variable, intermittent problem that's very hard to pin down.
    I tried changing her password -- to guarantee that only her known clients were logging in (no lurking POP mail readers that she'd forgotten about). No effect. Then I tried turning off her junk filters, both local and online at MobileMe (thinking maybe some rule was out of control -- deleting random messages, rather than filing them as junk). No effect (other than a lot of complaints from her about junk in her inbox, of course).
    Finally, she suggested that maybe it had to do with MM push services -- since it only happens on the iPhone, not on her Mac. We turned off push on her iPhone and voila! It seems to have fixed the issue.
    I haven't found anyone else who's connected this with data push on the iPhone. I'd be interested if other folks who try this as a solution would see if it works for them and post results here.

  • Mail disappears from Mac account inbox

    Hi folks.
    I'm a relative apple newby. I have 2 mail accounts, 1 of which is an apple mail account. On 2 occasions now all the mail in my mac inbox has just disappeared. Any ideas how to retrieve them and why is this happening?

  • MMS option disappeared from 3gs

    so this is odd.. i noticed after a few days ago my MMS option disappeared.. so i figured, fine ill just restore it..
    well restored now.... same problem MMS does not apper as in: the little camera icon next to a text window does not show up...
    its really frustrating knowing that im paying ATT and apple for a product that seems to get crappier with each update...

    If you go into Settings>Messages, is the setting for MMS turned on?
    You said you did a restore, did you do it from a backup or as a new phone? Did you try and do a reset before the restore?
    The other option would be to check with AT&T. Every once in a while things happen and they may need to reprovision your account.
