''Printer Offline' with Samsung ML 2851ND and Macbook Pro via USB

Running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The printer was working well, but I disconnected the computer and when I reconnected, it would not print. The print dialog box says the printer off line and the printer is puased. When I hit resume, it says 'unable to send print data. I downloaded the most recent printer driver, but that did not help. I erased all the printer drivers (control click in the list of printers) and put them back in, restarted, and that did not work either. I 've checked the USB cabling, which worked fine before I took the laptop to another location.
The printer starts up. One time it spit out the following:
RROR syntaxerrir
OFFENDING COMAND: --NOSTRINGVAL--
STACK:
/SH2
TRUE
-SAVELEVEL-
TRUE
FALSE
Thanks for any help you can give.

Still no luck. From everything I've read, it's not possible on Samsung's end (meaning by tinkering with the phone) to sync the phone with a Mac in any way. iPhoto opens when I Plug it into my laptop, but that's it - I can't actually import any pictures, the phone doesn't show up as, for instance, a removable disc. iTunes does not open up. I was hoping there's something I could do on my laptop that would allow it to read the phone...but it's seeming like it's a lost cause.

Sony Handycam and MacBook Pro via Firewire 800

Hi there,
I'm trying to connect my Sony Handycam (HC30E) to my MacBook Pro via the Firewire 800 port, but it simply won't register.
I bought a cable online that goes from my Sony (iLink) to the Firewire 800 port, so connecivity should be sound - but nothing at all is registering on the Mac.
I've updated all apps and Snow Leopard to the latest builds. Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers!

On paper, NO.
800 is back compatible with 400 and it should work fine.
On the forums a few users have ended up in your situation.
The common denominator is 800 ports on newer Macs.
Still don't know for sure what the trouble really is.
I suspect dodgey cables not pinned out properly.
If your cable is at the budget end of the market I'd suggest trying one at the quality end. Shielded and OFC style.
If the System Profiler can't see the camera then nothing else matters until it does.

Connecting kurzweil sp88 to GB I want to connect my Kurzweil sp88 to GB. The Kurzweil has a baffling array of buttons and possible MIDI channels. It also has the old style MIDI plug ins. I've got the MIDI out connected to my MacBook Pro via USB adapter.

I have my Kurzweil connected to my MacBook Pro via an adapter (old style MIDI from Kurzweil to USB adapter connecting to Mac). The Kurzweil has a baffling array of buttons and possible MIDI channels. Can anyone please tell me which of the channels I should use? Also, should I leave the MIDI In cable out of the Kurzweil? Thanks for as detailed an answer as possible. If you like you can respond directly to me at [email protected]

First of all I do not own this keyboard. But a quick look at the manual (found on the internet) says that when first powered up the SP88 is in Internal Sounds mode. Meaning you hear the sounds selected when playing the keyboard. It also stated that the default Midi Transmit Channel is Midi Channel #1.
Looks like you would need to go to the SP88 Keyboard's MIDI SETUP and simply select LOCAL OFF. Now the keyboard should be ready to transmit Midi Out only and no internal sounds should be heard.
Next you may or may not need to do this but you might need to go into the Utilities Folder found in your Applications Folder on your Mac and double click AUDIO MIDI SETUP the keyboard Icon. Figure #1 below.
Next you need to make a physical connection from the Midi Out of the SP88 to the Midi In on your Midi Interface. Figure #3 below. You may need to Click on Add Device first. Figure #2 below.
In the examples shown below I have a Yamaha Electronic Drum Kit that is Midi Out only... not USB out. I had to plug a Midi cable from the Midi Out Port on the back of my Drum Module to the Midi In Port on the back of my Motu 828 Audio Inferface which is connected to my Mac. Next I created the Audio Interface and Drum Module "Devices" as mentioned above.
I then double clicked on the Drum Module and made my Midi Out Selections. Figure #4 Below. And once it was setup and the icons closed I used my mouse to draw a virtual cable connection from the Drum Module Out to the Audio Interface In. Figure #3 below. This is how I got my Midi Devices to talk to one another.
Once you have made your setup as I have outlined create a MIDI Instrument Track in Garageband, select an instrument for example a Piano then Record Enable that track in Garageband and see if you now hear what you are playing. In this example the SP88 is a Midi Controller only and you will only hear sounds selected in Garageband which is what you want.
Keep in midi your setup may be different than mine. You can keep your SP88 Keyboard on the default Midi Channel #1. That would be a good place to start. Garageband receives Midi on all channels.

How can I fix this printer error with Samsung SCX-4300 and SCX-4521f on Windows Server 2008 R2?

I have two printers installed on Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit):
1. Samsung SCX-4521f
2. Samsung SCX-4300
There are two computers (Windows 7 Professional, 32-Bit) connected to this server that utilise these shared printers.
The drivers installed are as follows:
SCX-4x21_Win7_Print.exe (Win 2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008/Win 7 3.04.96:03 Print Driver 11 Dec, 2009 12.37 MULTI LANGUAGE)
SCX-4300_Print.exe (Win 2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008/Win 7(32,64bit) 3.04.95:07 Print Driver Jan 19, 2011 53.07 MULTI LANGUAGE)
After printing documents for some time (within a 24 period) the printers no longer respond to print requests.
On the server opening "Control Panel\Hardware\Devices and Printers" shows the two printers with yellow exclamation marks.
The "SCX-4x21" printer shows the "Status" as "Needs troubleshooting" and "Printer: Error".
The "SCX-4300" printer shows the "Status" as "Needs troubleshooting".
Neither will print a test page.
Searching for new drivers automatically returns saying: "The best driver software for your device is already installed".
The error persists and nothing will print.
When double-clicking on the "SCX-4x21" printer (or going to "Control Panel\Hardware\Devices and Printers\Samsung SCX-4x21 Series") you see the following:
"Printer: Error" and "N document(s) in queue".
Clicking on either of these brings up the print queue and shows a document with the status of "Error - Printing".
As each job with an error is cancelled the next one attempts to print and also displays an error like the last.
Once all the jobs are cleared the printer information says "Printer: Ready".
Sending a "Print Test Page" sends the printer into an error state saying "Printer: Error".
With the "SCX-4300", sending a "Print Test Page" displays a bubble saying: "Toner Empty: Replace Toner".
However, I can't see any specific error messages.
How do I find out what exactly "Needs troubleshooting"?
Please can anyone advise further?

The printer (SCX-4300) has stopped again.
Since it has been stopped I have done your recommendations:
Unticked the "Enable bidirectional support" option under the "Ports" tab in the printer properties.
Set the "Interactive Services Detection" to Automatic and started it.
Unfortunately the printer did not start printing, the print jobs did not restart or delete.
I decided to check the Operational logs that we enabled.
The first job I see goes like this:
Information: Rendering job 41.
Error: The print spooler failed to delete the file C:\Windows\system32\spool\PRINTERS\00041.SHD, error code 0x2. See the event user data for context information.
Information: The print job 41 was sent through the print processor SSE1MPC on printer Samsung SCX-4300 Series, driver Samsung SCX-4300 Series, in the isolation mode 1 (0 - loaded in the spooler, 1 - loaded in shared sandbox, 2 - loaded in isolated
sandbox). Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 0x0.
Information:Printing job 41.
Information:Spooling job 41.
This job actually printed.
Other jobs printed fine with no error.
There are no other errors in the "Operational" log other than the "print spooler failed to delete" error.
Any ideas what to try now?
Update: Unticking the "Enable bidirectional support", clearing the print queue and then trying again seems to have fixed the problem for now.

Samsung 4K Tv and MacBook Pro Retina 15" Late2013

Hello there, i have:
This MacBook Pro: http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/macbook-pro?product=MGXC2LL/A&step=config
This Samsung 4K TV :http://www.samsung.com/it/consumer/tv-audio-video/smart-tv/smart-tv-uhd/UE40HU69 00DXZT
I tried to connect the MacBook to the TV using the HDMI port and I found a very slow and little fluidity on the Samsung screen.
I think the problem depends on the refresh rate that is 30Hz.
My question is: Is there a way or a resolution that will allow me to view the video on the 60Hz???
Thanks for the answers.
Michele.

Boot up time with Samsung 830 SSD? - MacBook Pro 13" 2.9GHz Mid2012

Hey everyone,
Just got my first mac ever! Snagged a pretty nice deal on a MacBook Pro 2.9 GHz 13" Mid2012 model by getting it refurbished.
I immediately cloned my hard drive using CCC and installed a Samsung 830 SSD (256 GB). I believe I did install it correctly as using black magic speed test I put up some pretty good numbers --> 400 MB/s Write and 490 MB/s Read.
However, the boot up time seems a bit slow for a out of box MacBook Pro considering I upgraded the hard drive.
I was clocking in around 40 seconds... Is that abnormally slow?
I know its kind of silly looking timing the start up of your computer... I just expected faster, and this is my first hard drive installation... I hope I didn't mess up!
Thanks for your help in advance,
Weston

A bit simplifying :
there are two parts in boot process - one-before spinning thing, other - spinning thing to desktop.
First part is hardware inits, you can not speed it up. It is for sure longer for your MBP than for her - its normal, more hardware and it is more sophisticated so longer init.
Second part depends on HD (SSD) speed.
Say so - I have M4 SSD and second part is 1 to 2 spins until login window. Should be more or less same for you.
If it is not so - probably something is not good with filesystem and some config files, most probably due to cloning instead of install. Reboot from recovery, repair drive (first - drive as a whole, second - boot partition), then reboot permissions. reboot two times as normal. see what'll happen with timing.

How do I use my HP Laser Jet 4M printer work with my OS 10.9 MacBook Pro

A "newbie" here. I am having trouble getting my new Macbook Pro and its 10.9 OS to accept my HP Laser Jet 4M+ printer. HP apparently does not support the Mac's OS10.9. Any help appreciated.

Ok, I've downloaded the drivers as suggested.but still not printing as it should.
It's now printing one page as opposed to many, but it still has the jargon on top of the page as depicted in my original post?
From this info you advised, it does suggest, does it not, that the HP Laser Jet 6p is supported.
Meanwhile, any other advice.

Wi-Fi Connection Issues with 2 PC's and MacBook Pro on Router

Okay so here is whats going on.....
I am staying with my Mom for a short period of time. She uses Xfinity from Comcast. They provide her with a residential Home Gateway which provides her the internet and the Wi-Fi signal.
My Partner is also staying with us.
My Mom owns two PCs one runs Windows 8 and runs Windows 7 Home Premium. My Partner also runs a PC which is running Windows 7 Professional.
I have a Macbook Pro Retina Display Early 2013 release. Intel Core i5 2.6 GHz. 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3.
Well oddly enough I can access the internet just fine, I am right now as a matter fact. The issue is that if my partner boots up her PC her wi fi somehow kicks everyone off the internet and she cannot connect to the internet herself.
I do not know if its my settings in my MacBook Pro causing the issues or if something is wrong on her PC or my Mom's. Either way its extremely annoying. We all need to be on the internet at the same time so constantly being booted *****!
I checked and I have no new system updates available. I am currently running Mac OSX 10.9 (13A603).
The router has been power-cycled and we have done a reset on it. Its an Arris TG862 I believe. There is only one other wi fi network in the neighborhood as we are in a retirees community so chances of anything weird or someone using our wi fi is unlikely. Unless some old person is super tech savvy and bored. he he maybe tho lol.

When you say check hers to make sure it's not set to static IP whose are u referring to?? Mom's or my Partners?
And under what setting do I go to for the DHCP scope?? Advanced? What should I set it to?

Printing Problem with CS 6 extended and Canon Pro 9500

My prints are no longer coming out centered. I have the "center" box checked in the CS6 print dialogue box. The prints are not centered left to right or top to bottom.
This seems to be a problem since I upgraded to CS 6 extended and or newest print driver for my Canon Pro 9500.
I believe that since I did one or both of these changes there is a border (consitst of slanted hash marks around the perimiter of the print dialogue picture) in the preview of the print.
The border segments left and right are not equal and are very uneven in width. The top and bottom borders are closer but still not even in width.
Can anyone help me with this issue?
Thanks,
Dennis

Is there a compatibility issue with the Current USB 3 external Hard drives and MacBook Pro 2011 (USB 2)?

I am currently having bad hangs with my 13" MacBook Pro (2011) which I book 2012 ad a New external Harddrive (WD My Passport Edge) which was given to me as a gift.
Friends of mine told me there is a compatibility issue between the USB 3 cord and the USB outlet of my MacBook Pro.
Although this shouldnt be the case as the box of the Hard drive I got said it was compatible.
I even downloaded the WD Drive Utilities and sometimes whenthe Harddrive is plugged in the Utilities doean't Open but just bleeps in the Applications Dock.
Before I used the Harddrive I read a lot from the WD Manual and went to their site and downloaded a firmware update so I really don't know what the problem is.
What I am afraid of is that I may lose some files if I place them in the external Harddrive.
Can anyone help me with this or should I be asking for a replacement harddrive?
This is my first experience with an external hard drive as I never used one before.
Thank you very much.

To be honest, I've had back luck with Western Digital drives and I avoid them at all costs. If I were you, I would return the WD drive and look at externals from OWC or MacMall (LaCie, even G-Tech).
That's just my personal opinion, mind you...

Trouble with my time machine and macbook pro

I had my macbook pro's screen repaired because the it kept going black. It was not the video card, but a faulty screen. I just got it home and plugged my time machine into the computer. Now I can't browse any of my old backups on the time machine. It acts as if they were never there. Nothing except for what was just added to the time machine today is there. I live 2 hours away from the closest Apple store and my Apple care plan ended. I work as staff for a business and they need me to be able to browse the backups. The time machine was working perfectly before I had the computer repaired. Is it possible that they changed something on my computer so it doesn't reconize my files? Is there a way that I can change it back or fix this problem myself?
I just called Apple store and they told me that there is basically no way that I will be able to get access to my old files because they changed out something in my computer when they repaired the screen. If you know of any other way that I can still have access to these files let me know! On a PC you can plug an external into any computer and access files. My files are still on my Time Machine. I just can't access them. Please help me.

wrong forum, and not sure what anyone can offer.

Help with networking between pc and Macbook PRo

i am using macbook pro running 10.5.4 , at home i have 3 pc's using Windows XP and they connected via router .
When i connect the mac i can see all the pc's and i have access to each one of them and i also have internet . the ip that i get is 192.168.1.4.
My problem is none of the pc's see the mac . i configured the file sharing section in the mac plus all the " share files using SMB " .
when i going to " My Network Places " in the pc i don't see any of the shared foldes of the mac but when i am getting into :
ENTIRE NETWORK > MICROSOFT WINDOWS NETWORK > WORKGROUP
i can see there the mac but when i click all i see is PRinters & Faxes .
i tried everything but nothing helps plus i tried to find out if there is something related to the admin account ?
Any Idea what should i do ?

x's networking isnt the best (read alot of the time it likes to play dumb). But most of the time the problem lies in the numbers. You need to make sure both machines have the same first 3 numbers in their ip address (ie, 192.168.0.x) and that they are both looking at the same router (ie. 192.168.0.1). Thats usually the first trouble maker. But i have also noticed lately leopard sometimes like to just not network. Might try a restart if the number thing isnt playing nice.
there are other potential external problems, like if you've directly connected the computers by ethernet, but arent using a crossover cable. But thats probably your problem, since you have file sharing turned on.
