Please help! Problems with HP Deskjet 5150 after installing Tiger

I recently upgraded to Tiger, and since my HP DeskJet 5150 has stopped working over my AirPort Express. When I plug it in directly through USB, it finds the printer and the driver no problem. When I plug it in though my AirPort, it finds the printer, but not the drivers. I tried downloading and installing the HP drivers, but no help.
Any Ideas?
Thank You.

Since opening my new iMac and plugging in my printer, the system recognizes it as an HP 5550 series and offers me the Gutenprint 5.2.3 driver. If I manually specify the printer, it offers me either the 5550 or 5551 models (conspicuously NOT the 5552 one which I have), Both are the Gutenprint 5.2.3.
According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669?viewlocale=en_US, the Gutenprint 5550 and 5551 are the only drivers included with Snow Leopard.
I've installed HP's printer utility, which runs fine: it will print Test and Diagnostic pages without problems. It's only when I try to get it to print something (anything!) from the Mac, be it text or a photo, that I get either blank sheets or just garbage.
How did you install the utility? Since HP hasn't released a Snow Leopard driver for this printer, it sounds like you might have installed an unsupported version.
I've downloaded the latest driver patch for OS X from HP, despite which I still only see the options for the 5550 and 5551 printers in the Driver List (and they're both listed as Gutenprint 5.2.3). I've even tried installing the software from the printer's bundled CD.
Using Software Update won't help since there aren't any (updated) drivers from HP, but you can see if the updated Gutenprint driver, v5.2.5 will help.

Hope this helps.

Problem with Rescue and Recovery after installing Norton Internet Security 2010

Hi all.
It's my first time in this forum.
I have a problem, with Rescue and Recovery, after installing Norton Internet Security 2010 on my T43.
The message I get it:
"Rescue and Recovery is unable to back up the file 'C:\Documents and settings\all Users\Application Data\ Norton\ 00000082\00000109\000003c1\cltMLS1.bat' Because the file is either corrupted or being used by another application. Please close any application that could be using the file.
I tried to close the Norton but I couldn't find how.

Hi and welcome to the forum,
the reason for this situation is, that the antivir files are protected from being modified.
This is the reason, why this file cannot be backed up. I assume, that you would get much more such messages, as there are surelly multiple files files, that are protected like this.
So the solution is to block folders from being archived. Please start RnR application and in the configuration set this folder as the excluded one.
This will skip the backup of this file and will fix your situation.
Please let me know, if you have covered this.
Cheers

I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?

I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?
After +/- 10 to 15min my connection is gone.
Does anyone have a sollution?

Lots of people are having the same problem, you're not the only one, belieeeeve me.
Just Googling the problem gets you tons of people complaining about the same thing, SOMETHING is up with Lion what wasn't happening with Snow Leopard. i just bought a new Imac and it CAME with Lion, so i started experiencing this internet dropout immediately.
It's been going on for the most of a year it looks like (at least by the dates from the threads i've been reading)
So your best bet is to fiddle with the System Preferences and read what other people have used to make theirs work. i'm doing that myself right now. I already posted a similar thread last night trying to figure out why my connection kept on dropping, i got a reply which linked me to a site. i followed the instructions there, so far so good, but i'm just being cautiously optimistic.
i'm gonna call Apple today and see if they've found anything, though seeing as this is a problem right out of the box there may not be an immediate solution. Good luck hunting for a solution :3

Please Help-Problem with Optical Drive, it's a Mystery...

Well I'm a fairly big Imogen Heap fan, and her new CD came out the 25th. So I went to Best Buy and I bought the deluxe version which includes a seperate disc with instrumentals. I got home, put it in, and my Mac made a "scratching" kind of noise, then it spit out the disc. I figured there was a problem with it, I went back to Best Buy, got a new one, and it did the exact same thing.
HOWEVER, both of the instrumental discs worked just fine, and imported just fine. The normal audio disc also works on my Ubuntu computer, Windows computer, and my other Early 2009 Macbook Pro. I also restarted my Mac, cleaned the disc, and that did nothing.
So, what's the problem do you think?
(Also I went to Apple but there were no appointments available, and they were too busy to just look at it without an appointment )

Hi Mate,
I didn't do an OS install, I took it to an apple store and made a Genius Bar appointemnt. Explained the proble and after 15min conversation, they diagnosed it as teh following;
The felt/rubber where you put the CD/DVD had gone hard and the friction is causing the CD/DVD to get stuck and be loaded. They tried to tell me that I need to replace the top case (£140+VAT) as its in-built into it or I can use a £3 spudger to push the CD's in......needles to say the Spudger works fine.....Shame I wasted £100 on the new optical drive ;o( Maybe sell teh spare on eBay....Happy days!

Please Help: Problems with erratic mouse

I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.7 and just recently started experience erratic behaviour from my magic mouse. I have read countless forums that document this issue - its a known thing. It honestly drove me insane to the point that I completely formatted my 27" iMac and got back up to 10.6.7 - after installing the magic mouse software again, the SAME behaviour happened. I tried changing the channels at which my airport extreme broadcasts my wireless signal throughout the house - no luck.
I even switched over to my wired keyboard and Mighty Mouse - and you wouldn't believe it, but I am also experience this subtle jerkiness with the mouse - the cursor will get laggy when dragging from side to side, or up and down - definitely noticeable since I have been using mac's for 6 years now. I am absolutely blown away by this sudden phenomenon and have no explanation for it. My desk surface is fine (since it worked for years before hand). Both lenses on the mice have been blown out by a dust blower, they are clean.
I am about to lose my mind. Any ideas?

I am having the same problem. It started about 2 weeks ago and it drives my completely nuts. Even my wired mouse does have a noticeable lag. I use a lot of Photoshop and jerkiness is very annoying and it slows me down.
Anybody has an idea why this is happening?

Problem with Itunes and NAS after installing latest version of Itunes

After installing the latest version of Itunes on my new PC (Windows 7 Ultimate) I have problems seeing the music off the Itunes server on my NAS.
I see the name of the NAS under tab SHARED (GEDEELD in dutch), but when I click on it, Itunes is making connection with the NAS but I see the music for less then a second.
Then the display goes back to the tab LIBRARY.
I've searched the web for this problem, checked on my firewall,... nothing to find. On another windows 7 PC, it is still working fine but this is an older version of Itunes.
So what can be the problem ?

No, I had not uninstalled it, I didn't realize I had ever installed it. I don't use it at all, never have. I uninstalled the MobileMe Control Panel then restarted my computer for good measure, and that appears to have resolved the issue! Thanks very much for your help!

Problem with getting PDF Options after installing Acrobat Pro 8.0

Hello
I have some problems after installing Acrobat Pro 8.0 on my MacBook Pro.
In the past I worked with Acrobat Pro 7.0.8. Then when I choose the printer Adobe PDF 7.0 I had always a pulldown menu in the Printer Settings. to decided what kind of PDF I want (Best Quality, PDF/1, PDF/3, Low Quality, etc)
After Intallion Acrobat Pro 8.0, I had both Adobe PDF 7.0 & 8.0 availible in the Printer Menu, but either the PDF Options is not availible for both (in some programs) or for both it is visible as "AdobePDFPDE70" but it has a line through it and I cann't select it.
Then I delete Adobe 7.0 & 8.0 from the folder "/usr/libexec/cups/backend/" and started Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.0 again. It recognised that an Adobe PDF need to be installed but again it is not availible or AdobePDFPDE70 has a line through.
I have still installed Adobe Pro 7.08 on my MacBook Pro because their is no PitStop Professional availible for Adobe Acrobat 8.0
Who can help me to make my PDF Options Availible. I also looked at the Adobe Site for a Solutions but I found only 4 Threads for Acrobat 8 in combination with OS X and it was regarding other problems.
I work with German OS X and german Versions of Acrobat and PitStop
Regards
Gerard
MacBook Pro 17" Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Hello
I solved the problem. The files "AdobePDFPDE700.plugin" & "AdobePDFPDE800.plugin" conflict each other.
I solved it in the following way
- quit Adobe Acrobat
- delete Adobe PDF 7.0 & 8.0 From the Printer Manager
- remove the file "AdobePDFPDE700.plugin" & "AdobePDFPDE800.plugin" from /Library/Printers/PPD Plugins/
- restart Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.0 and activate its self repair function from within the Help menu
- quit Acrobat and re-boot your Mac
- a Printer & "Adobe PDF 8.0" will be availible. Now the PDF Options are availible in all the Programs I working with!
I experienced that the Acrobat Pro 7.08 is very unstabil after the Installation of 8.0, let's hope that PitStop will bring very soon a new Version compatible with Acrobat 8.0

I have problem with my macbook pro after installing lion

You can do some basic diagnostics, first open Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. If that does not help I woudl think you got a corrupt download of ML and need to re-download from the Mac App Store and reinstall. Hopefully you have been backing up and have a stable backup system.

Problem with switchable graphic cards after installing windows 10

Dear support, after installing windows 10 i lost option to switch my graphic cards. I already have installed new drivers for win10 64-bit. But it doesn't work. New drivers which i downloaded here: http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows+10+-+64 doesn't support my graphic card. So i don't know what to do to get right drivers and be able to switch my graphic cards. Thanks for any help.

Hi there
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel. I understand that you installed Windows 10 and that switchable graphics is not working for you. I am happy to help. Unfortunately this is not something that AMD can help with, as it is a customized driver for your notebook. Did you do the Windows 10 installation as an upgrade and if so which operating system did you upgrade from? The existing HP drivers can be found here: HP Pavilion g6-1004ev Notebook PC but they are for Windows 7 or 8 depending on your choices. You could try those and install it using compatibility mode and see if that works. How to: Install and Update drivers in Windows 10 - answers.microsoft.com Let me know if that works for you.

Problems with /usr/local/lib after installing

After I installed Leopard, I noticed that some of my files in usr/local/lib seemed to have disappeared. When I tried to open /usr/local/lib I got the following error: 'lib: Too many levels of symbolic links.' and it appeared that there was also a 'lib 1' directory in /usr/local which had all of my files in it. I managed to fix it using:
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib
sudo cp -R '/usr/local/lib 1' /usr/local/lib
Just wanted to give a heads up since this was rather annoying to figure out. Other than this I have very few issues with leopard, so far limited to:
-DivX playback doesn't appear to work
-after login it appears to take a while for finder to start
-a few problems mounting external devices, such as my USB drive and iPhone

I’ve found this on my system as well! I had some trouble installing MacFuse under Leopard. The installer just said "Das Installations konnte einige Dateien nicht nach '/' kopieren. Wenden Sie sich an den Hersteller", which basically means that it couldn't write to the root directory.
Then I found out about the /usr/local/lib symlink. This is very disturbing and clearly a major bug. I think it's a problem with the installation process of the developer tools. I’ve upgraded to Leopard two weeks ago. Everything worked. Then I’ve installed XCode 3.0 this and then the problem started. The circular symlink in /usr/local/lib has the timestamp of the XCode 3.0 installation…
