According to the printer's specifications, it uses a standard USB port. You'll need a USB cable and it should plug into any of the available USB ports on the front/back of your tower.

Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive?

Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive? Apple support tech tried to tell me it wasn't possible and that the only NAS Time Machine could back up to is the Time Capsule, but I'm not buying it. I know it's doable, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which External HDDs will work and which ones won't. If not My Book for Mac, is there an External HDD that will work? (Running OS X 10.9.1 - Mavericks, btw...)

Given the nature of backups, my recommendation has always been to use a strategy that is unequivocally supported by Apple. As you already determined Apple Support unequivocally informed you that your proposal will not work, unless your router is an Apple AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule.
The exhaustive list of devices supported by Time Machine amounts to the following:
AirPort Time Capsule's built-in hard disk (any model)
External USB hard disk drive connected to a Time Capsule (any model)
External USB hard disk drive connected to an AirPort Extreme (current model only)
A hard disk drive directly connected to your Mac
That is all.
Use whatever backup device you want, but you should be aware that this site is full of reports of misery from hapless individuals who had been using NAS devices for Time Machine backups, only to find that they were incomplete, corrupted, or useless when they were required. Apple won't care if you lose your data while using a Time Machine configuration specifically excluded from their technical support documents.

I have had IPhones since their inception. Last phone was the 5. A few months ago, I upgraded to the 6 Plus. Here is my issue. On my 5, my car radio (which has USB port) allowed me to plug in and listen to radio or music from my phone and the bonus

I have had IPhones since their inception. Last phone was the 5. A few months ago, I upgraded to the 6 Plus.
Here is my issue.
On my 5, my car radio (which has USB port) allowed me to plug in and listen to radio or music from my phone and the bonus was it charged the phone as well. All worked great.
Now with the 6 Plus, neither of things work. The message on the radio (Kenwood) says I Pod error. The message on my phone say's "this device is supported".
I have called on this before and was told you are aware and that the issue will be addressed in a future update. There have been several updates on IOS 8 and the issue remains.

I have a Kenwood KDC-X695. When I purchased this stereo and had it installed, I had an ATT iPhone 4.
It worked with the stereo, but had a few issues. I had purchased a few audio books that I would listen to while driving. When I plugged it in it would immediately begin to play the book from the beginning or if I had been listening to music, it would start playing the song that was at the top of the song list.
The stereo came equipped with Firmware version 3.05. I upgraded to the iPhone 5 a year later. I had that phone for approximately 2 years. The song or book issue remained the same.
I just recently upgraded to the iPhone 6 and the Bluetooth function still works, however the USB port on the stereo that the phone plugs into to allow files on the phone to play through the stereo no longer works.
I contacted the service provider (Verizon) and after speaking to several different technical support technicians, they provided me the phone numbers for Kenwood and Apple because they were unable to help me.
I spoke with Kenwood technical support the following day and after a few fumbling miscues from the technical advisor, it was suggested that I upgrade the firmware, even though the Kenwood literature warns against this if the Bluetooth portion is working, because if there is a problem with the upgrade, it can render the Bluetooth useless and non-functional. The advisor did suggest the latest firmware on the second or third attempt, after I pointed out what I was able to glean from my initial search.
Later that day, I went back to the Kenwood site (from their homepage) and by using their selection tools, discovered that this particular model was only ever intended to be used with the iPhone 4S (the technical advisor was not aware of this, even though I mentioned this during my phone call earlier in the day). According to the Firmware selection tool, my iPhone 5 should not have worked with it.
I performed the Firmware upgrade, and it took 13 minutes. This was less than the 15 minutes that was forecast in the Kenwood literature. The Bluetooth still works but the USB cable connection still causes the unsupported device message that I received prior to the upgrade. I am incredibly annoyed and disappointed.
By upgrading to the iPhone 6, I have three choices; (1) only use the Bluetooth for phone calls without the ability to play other files from my iPhone 6 (2) forced obsolescence of my stereo, requires buying a new stereo (3) return my iPhone 6 and go back to my iPhone 5.
I do not believe that I should have to be a software/Firmware/hardware engineer, vetting every single device that I own; prior to upgrading a cell phone.
I am incredibly annoyed with Apple at the moment.
I have a separate Bluetooth headset that worked with both my iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 that the iPhone 6 simply does not recognize. That is another story for another time.
Currently, I am incredibly underwhelmed with Apple.

Airport Utility cannot find my Airport. It is nearby, no interference, and worked for about 9 months. The Airport still provides wireless internet for the household, though it won't recognize the printer -- plugged in or wireless.

How can I get Airport Utility to find my Airport? It is nearby, no interference, and worked for about 9 months. The Airport still provides wireless internet for the household, though it won't recognize the printer -- plugged in or wireless.

Are you using the latest version (5.5.2) of the AirPort Utility to access the new 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn)? Your tagline has it that you are running OS X 10.4.6. You would need at least 10.5.7 to run the utility. I assume that you are running the latest utility on another device ... correct?
When having difficulties accessing the AirPort thru the AirPort Utility, try the following, in order checking accessibility with the utility after each step:
o Check the local connection. If you are trying to access the AirPort wirelessly, make sure that you are connected to its wireless network before running the AirPort Utility to administer it. If you are still unable to access it with the utility, temporarily connect your computer directly using an Ethernet cable to one of the base station's LAN ports.
o Power cycle the base station. Remove the power adapter's plug from the power outlet, and then, wait 15 seconds before plugging it back in.
o Perform a "factory default" reset on the base station.

PShop won't open IPF8300 Print Plug-In

Photoshop keeps asking me to install my driver and register the printer, which has been done. I can print via File> Print, but the Plug-In will not launch. I asked Cannon and they say that it is an Adobe issue. Can someone please help me?

Kelly,
Yes, the app works normally on its own. I've been using it to open .pps files from email or wherever all the way back to whatever OS was there when I first installed it, probably Tiger, and it worked fine all the way up through 10.5.8 on the old G5 iMac. Now, on the new Intel platform and Snow Leopard, I get these failures.
I don't think it's a problem with the files themselves, and I think this is still supposed to be something that works ... but can't be totally sure of that.
In the meantime, I'm left with opening them on the iPad.

VTDR-128 fx5600 - No Color Red on VGA plug (d-sub port)

okay, i have a couple other posts here and i've decided to clean up my plea for help a little bit because i've solved the worst of my problems and, being more educated, can explain things a little easier.
i will recap my experiance now:
2-3 months ago i bought my spanking new VTDR-128 fx5600 card from a well known vendor. i was given a period of 2 weeks for vendor RMA, but i waited too long as this card was intended for a system i was building for someone else. when we finally were able to test it:
1: system would crash within five minutes, max.
2: no color red output from the monitor plug (d-sub port?)
3: bad, horrible artifacting in all games and even during low resolutions 2D windows usage. after power off, card heatspreader could almost burn my finger if i touched it.
4: color looked fine on both tv-out dongle and dvi > CRT adapter that came with the card, if only i could boot for more than a few minutes at a time
i wish i had taken pictures, but one day, i was convinced the card was "dead" and i decided to take the cooler off and put it on an older card i have. i carefully removed the cooler front, then back, and noticed on the back, one of the ram chips was a smudge of thermal interface material (in the pins and such, on other components as well)
i was astonished, i jumped with glee, and spent 45 minutes with a fine bristled brush. after many inspections with a magnifying glass, and almost half a can of maxell "blast away" canned air, i put the card in my computer, re-loaded the newer drivers, installed all the msi software, and proceeded to run benchmarks!
i was so happy i could pee my pants. somewhere in the manufacturing process i think something got a little messed up and the thermal paste was smudged. even with hefty overclocks the cooler doesnt feel NEARLY as hot as my old ti4200.
many people have been disappointed with performance from this card, but i am very impressed! i was able to run halo before at ~20-30FPS, now i'm getting 50 and things are much prettier. its added 4000-6000 to my aquamark score, and i went from 11000 to 16000 in 3Dmark2001SE.
the reason i'm posting again is because i want the vga plug to work. nview dualview does not work with the DVI adapter and i use my TV for gaming. so if i want to game i have to deal with the monitor having no color red.
this card has been tried now in 3 systems, with 3 different monitors and the color RED is not visible on any (with the vga plug (d-sub))
i am forced to believe nothing is wrong with my system, and it relies solely on a mistake made in manufacturing. the card overheated and crashed and burnt before i took the heatspreader off, after cleaning the paste off it works perfectly.
so, maybe GlennVidia will be kind to tell me if:
MSI will help me fix or issue a replacement. i doubt this has happened too many times before, i am probably one out of a million buying a graphics card with this mistake.
i've made many attempts at contacting MSI support, and i've read through faqs and KB so many times i could write an encyclopaedia.
do you think MSI would even admit a mistake, i am betting that first they just tell me "i voided my warranty". that makes me want to cry! i emailed them 5 times so far, and they only tell me to "RMA with vendor" and "test in another systems" even after i explained everything...
::sigh::
i'd do anything to get this card working, i love it regardless of it's redless vga!

I have a new MX922. All of a sudden I get Support Code C000 printer error has occurred

I have a fairly new MX922. All of a sudden I get Support Code C000 which says printer error has occurred. There is nothing in the print cue. I have restarted my computer. I have turned the printer on and off. I have turned the printer off, unplugged the printer, plugged it back in again, and turned on. The same message and flashing light for the error is still there. I can't operated my printer. Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Kathy

Is there a difference between AirPrint and printing via usb printer plugged into an airport extreme?

My printer does not show up in the add a printer option on my iMac when plugged into the extreme. I have a HP officejet 5610 All-in-One. I want to be able to print wirelessly using my Airport Extreme. Thank you

Is there a difference between AirPrint and printing via usb printer plugged into an AirPort Exreme?
Big difference.
AirPrint for one will not work via USB, so you will not be able to print from an iOS device like an iPhone or iPad using this type of connection unless you look at additional software....that may or may not allow this option.
Assuming that you get the All-in-One setup using the USB port on the AirPort.......only printing is supported.
You will not be able to use any other advanced features like maintenance, scan, copy, fax, etc when the device is connected to the USB port on an AirPort.
If you plan to use the HP for other things, I would strongly recommend that you connect it to your computer.

This usually indicates that your printer model is not supported. Check with HP Support to see if they have any updated Macintosh drivers for the 5610 that you could download and install that might allow this.

I am using Adobe XI Pro and in various parts of the document there is brown / biege lettering when on the document it shows as black. My printer guy has been in and checked it out top to bottom and that part is fine. I have tried to print the same document and it comes out fine. Any ideas ? Using Windows 7 Service Pack 1

Sorry my bad. I have tried to print the same document on another printer and all the formatting is fine.

How to setup a usb printer on the usb port of a network storage drive

I have searched the forums and dont see any real info on this..
I have a usb based officejet 7590 , winxp, and a iomega home media network storage drive
the printer works fine when I install it on the local usb port of the laptop
BUT
its not clear how to connect it ot the usb port of the network drive.
DO I have to resinstall it as a network printer?
DO I have to resinstall device drivers if I already installed it as a usb printer for the local port?
Can I use the scan/fax functions if I do it right?
thx!

OK, I will use it as a bookstand...
Since I obviously don't know enough about networks I will stay away from 'professional' products like the Cisco products.
The user interface and the documentation of these products are clearly made by nerds for nerds...
Thanks for your help.

Is the HP Photosmart Pro print plug-in for Adobe Photoshop available using Windows 7 64 bit?

Hi guys. Having a bit of a struggle with printing with sheets (as against using rolls) on my DesignJet Z2100. I'm having difficulty in getting the rotation correct, paper margin issues etc and had thought that maybe the print plug-in may assist.

Hi Sjco,
I understand you are having trouble setting up ePrint. Have you created an ePrint account? What error message do you get when you try to create an ePrint account?

When I print a Word document to a shared printer, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines.

When I print a Word for Mac document to a shared printer (that is connected to my iMac) from my Macbook Pro, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines. I have tried to adjust the margins and the page setup settings but to no avail. It used to print fine until recently. Is there a way to fix it so that the printer prints what print preview shows?

I should add that when I e-mail this document to myself and print it directky from the iMac, it prints fine.

After upgrading to CS5, printing PDFs has become a nightmare!

After upgrading to CS5, printing PDFs has become a nightmare!
For example,
1. It would never finish printing the file, just the first so many pages. So...
2. I updated the driver, and then I could print one copy only without problems. But...
3. I can never print more than one copy of a PDF without collate mis-sequence problems. It just does not print one whole copy before printing the next copy. And it goes back and forth printing some of the first copy, then the second, then a few pages from the first, etc. Eventually it all prints, but they are mixed up sequentially. But some pages are in order. And...
4. It prints soooo slow compared to before.
I upgraded from CS3

All I know is that before I could print fine and fast and in any quantity I wanted (while using CS3 Indesign exported PDFs and Booklet Spreads on my latest and greatest printer, a Color Ricoh SP C420 DN).
But now, since I upgraded to a Master Suite of CS5, at first it would never print the whole file, even once. And when I upgraded to the Universal Print Driver, and or any other drivers, it will only print one copy of a PDF without mis-sequencing the printed pages, and it is so slow. It is worthless.

P.S. I think I need to try to call Ricoh or something, but will that work? Sigh!
Yeah, this sounds like a general print driver problem with the newer versions of the Adobe products, not just Acrobat or ID. Ricoh may or may not have an updated driver, but theyare definitely the ones to ask.
You haven't told us the OS... Some Mac users have had good luck, I think, using the CUPS drivers with problem printers when the manufacturer doesn't have a solution, but I'm a Windows guy, so don't do much with Mac printing.

Hi there dcjoe,
A lot of places carry the cables you are looking for. Though your area may vary I have found them in places like radioshack and wal-mart. Here is a google shopping link to get you started. Let us know if this helps.
Best of Luck!
