Printer says it is not connected - offline but it is connected

My Canon MP620 wireless printer reports that it is off line - unconnected. The printer is connected, but I cannot get it online and printing. My network consists of two MacBook Pros (one  running Snow Leopard, one running Lion) and an iMac running Tiger. The Tiger and Snow Leopard computers print as expected. The Lion equipped computer did print when Lion was installed initially, but does not print currently. Help!

Thank you PANHU for alerting me, albeit indirectly through your answer to another Mac user's printer problem, that there are multiple printer ques ( e.g. USB and wireless). In my case I was not waiting long enough for the wireless network printer que to appear in the Add Printer window. Once it appeared and was selected, my problem was resolved. However, I still haven't a clue as to why a perfectly functioning network printer suddenly went offline.

    Do a factory reset .. nothing will be deleted from your backups and you will be able to get access to them again.
    The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
    Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

  • When I try to sync my iPod iCal with my MBP iCal via WiFi I get a message saying "Safari Downloading Safe Browsing Data" but I am connected to a local network and thus the syncing does not complete"

    When I try to sync my iPod iCal with my MBP (OS 10.7) iCal via iTunes and WiFi I get a message saying "Safari Downloading Safe Browsing Data" but I am connected to a local network and thus the syncing does not complete because the downloading never completes because I am not connected to the internet.
    Why does syncing iCal need Safari Safe Browsing Data?  How can I turn this off?

    See:
    iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi Syncing
    "Safari Downloading Safe Browsing Data" is just some data that is synce with the computer. To turn off on the Mac go to System Preferencs>iCloud and turn off Safari

    Use Spotlight Search (the magnifying glass on the top right-hand corner of your menu bar) to locate your music files. Then point iTunes to those files.

  • DexterM - Printer connected wireless but Notebook cannot connect to printer?

    Hi all,
    I will be a brief and clear as possible. I really hope someone can help! thanks in advance.
    DexterM, if your still arond I think maybe you would be familiar with this type of thing. I will be as concise as possible.
    I incorrectly removed some HP folders in an effort to remove the bloatware. (shop and participation program etc).
    Anyway, I damaged my install because Solution Center disappeared! I needed it to scan multiple page PDF docs.
    I tried to uninstall and re-install the Full Software package (my printer is B110a) 10s of times. Each time the Installer showed that 'Solution center' is already installed. It was not installed.
    Eventually after days of trying to fix this, I took the drastic measure of remving some HP keys from the registry. Not randomly of course, but from a solution post on this board. I only removed about 4 HP keys. I was very careful not to remove any Windows ones. (I se Win7).
    So.. Solution center then installed. Hooray! Everything seemed perfect. EXCEPT....
    I had removed 2 keys related to the Network. Something like NET HPz12 and something similar. 
    Now when I tried to connect my printer wirelessly (using the USB to wireless process) it cold not find any wifi networks even though there were several in the vicinity.
    I found a solution on this forum which involved right clicking on the network.msi file and choosing uninstall, then re-installing it. This did the trick! now when I ran the "USB to Wireless" process it instantly found my wireless "your PC is connected to SSID blah blah blah, is this correct". Yes. It continued the network diagnostic but always failed at this point.
    I think because some service or reg key is missing the computer cannot commnicate directly with the printer, but it can see it at http://192.18.1.2 etc via browser. so all is connected properly, but something is preventing the laptop from commnicating with the printer. 
    So to recap.
    Laptop works perfectly with printer via USB.
    Printer is connected to my wireless without isse. I can see it at http://192.168.1.2 etc
    Laptop cannot connect to printer though, and fails everytime I run the 'usb to wireless' process.
    I suspect one of the NET keys I deleted frmo the reg is to blame? Or some missing windows service?
    The network diagnostic utility says "network software missing, please reinstall or fix and try again". I have uninstalled and reinstalled 10s of times now. It's not putting back no the required network service/key thats missing.
    Argh. please can anyone help. Someone must have been here before? I have a screen shot too of the 'USB to wireless' process failing. It shows the connection is there, but something is not right.
    image 0 - the 'usb to wireless process' picks up my wireless without any problem. ok
    image 1 - during the 'running diagnostic on network' part of the process it fails
    image 2 - not much to go on here. I reinstalled and uninstalled 4 or 5 times already. same thing. 

    Nobody? Im really stuck here... Been onto support 3 times and they cannot help. I need someone with expert skills who will understand which windows service or driver or key is preventing the notebook from talking to the printer even though both are on the same network successfully. No AV or FW on the network either.

  • New mini iPad. Trying it change payment infor and keeps saying records do not match bank but I know it does what now?

    Trying to change payment info to purchase aps. Keeps saying info doesn't match bank but I know it does.  What now or what am I doing wrong?

    The name and address that you have on your iTunes account match exactly (including format and spacing etc) the name and address that the card is registered to, and the card was issued by a bank in the same country as you and your iTunes are ? If not then try removing the card and re-entering its details : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
