Printer won't print after reinstall

After getting a new hard drive and reinstalling my printer, it's online but I can't print. I've tried other steps including resetting the modem/router for naught. It's an HP Officejet6500 E710-z all-in-one. IP address says 10.0.0.7. No error messages I can see.
"Drivering" me nuts.

Help restore network printer after reinstalling 10.10.3

I recently did a clean installation of 10.10.3, which seems to have broken my printer setup. My printer is an HP LaserJet p2055dn, connected by ethernet cable to a Linksys WRT120N router. When I set up this printer originally, I just added it in the routine way, using Bonjour. After reinstalling the OS, the printer showed up as not connected, so I deleted it and tried to re-add it. It no longer shows up for a Bonjour connection. I reset the printing system and fixed permissions with Disk Utility (a huge number of printer related permissions needed fixing). I also reinstalled the HP drivers. Nothing makes a difference.
There are three pieces to this puzzle and I don't even know how to start troubleshooting it. Is the problem at the level of my MacBook Pro? The router? The printer? I'd very much appreciate any help troubleshooting and fixing this.

Update: The printer shows up in the Add panel and allows a Bonjour connection when I connect it directly with a ethernet cable. I can also make a wireless connection using the printer's IP address. So for now I guess I'll just connect that way. Still, losing the opportunity to connect via Bonjour bugs me simply because I don't understand it.

After working with mcafee for 2 hours on a server host issue they did something that got rid of the site advisor on firefox and when they tried to fix that problem they couldn't get firefox to open after reinstalling it twice!
Help...i want firefox back! i'm using internet explorer right now as my default and i've always disliked it!
please help...brian

Do a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 10.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data because all profile folders will be removed.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
If that still gives problems then create a new profile.

IPhoto Library won't load after reinstalling Mac OSX

I have reinstalled mac i was having some problems and i am a newbie in mac so i tought a clean install would be good at that point
After reinstalling i had my user folder backed up i moved the files back to their original place, and organized everything because it was messy, and then started a timemachine backup on an external drive
so in short:
i reinstalled mac
restored my iPhoto Library to the Pictures folder
Updated everything to the latest version ( since the photo library was created with the latest version )
when i tried to open iphoto it stayed reloading for an hour then i gave up and searched online
my pictures are all there i can copy them and start a new library but that is not what i want
i want my events as i sorted them i want my faces as i sorted them i spent a lot of time making these pictures as they were
please help
Things i already tried:
vacuuming the *.db sqlite files
removing the faces.db so that if the faces are the problem i would know
tried removing all *.db files
tried to import my photos to a new library but that is not what i want
right now i have 2 libraries, a new one wih ****** event names
and the old one that is corrupt

Using your original library try the following: make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #3
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

IPhoto won't open after reinstalling

iPhoto won't open after installing "bundled software only" from the Leopard cd. The thing is that I already had everything installed , I installed the bundled software thinking that it would install the bootcamp in my mac (I know , I'm stupid...It is because I never had a mac..
What shoud I do?
PS: other program are not working either , iWork and Garage Band.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Start with the troubleshooting basics:
1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

Canon MF4270 won't print after reinstall.

I've had this Canon MF4270 for years now. It's been connected directly to an old iMac via USB and working fine. Today I installed a receipt-scanner that asked to be installed directly to the computer via USB, and so the Canon lost its spot and was moved to a USB hub. Afterwards, even restoring the printer's original USB connection, I can no longer print!
Hardware
Canon MF4270 connected via USB to an iMac. Over the course of the trouble-shooting, I've plugged the Canon back into the original connection—direct to the back of the iMac. (The new scanner is now replacing an inkjet printer.) So, the hardware setup for the Canon should be identical to what it has been previously. The iMac is a "20-inch Late 2006" model.
Software
During trouble-shooting, I downloaded the latest UFRII (v2.3) drivers and installed them, so that may have been a change. (I didn't check what version was installed previously.) The iMac is running OS X 10.7.3.
I guess I don't have a methodological trouble-shooting plan, but so far I've, of course, turned the printer off and on, checked the cables, restarted the iMac, and reinstalled the drivers. I don't know how to uninstall everything, so I haven't been able to really do a clean uninstall/reinstall cycle.
If anyone can offer some advice, I'd sincerely appreciate it!
Oh, and for what it's worth, the error message thrown is:
Canon UFR II Printer Driver
An error occurred.: -50
I don't see why I should lose 50 points just because the printer driver has had an error! ;-)
Thanks!
-Vijay

Hello Vijay,
I don't have the MF4270 but I have used the same UFR2 driver with our imageRUNNER copiers. Reading through your post I would like to suggest some things.
The UFR2 Guide says that for USB and simplex network connections, the Device Settings tab replaces the Printer Info tab. Since you don't have either button, the guide then says that if the tab is not displayed, the printer is not turned on. Now obviously it is turned on but there is a problem communicating with the printer. So I would say that either the printer queue has not installed correctly or there is a fault with the printer.
To make sure the printer is okay I would delete the current printer queue and connect the MF to the iMac USB. If you can print via USB then you could take the next step and connect the MF to the iMac's ethernet port using the same cable. You will have to manually set an IP address in the MF, probably something like 10.0.1.10 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. You will also have to set an address for the iMac ethernet port, since it sounds like you are only using wireless at the moment. Try 10.0.1.5 and 255.255.255.0.
With the new addresses set, try adding the printer again, by selecting More Printers > Canon IP (UFR2). If the printer is communicating correctly, the correct driver should be selected and you should be able to print without the 'Data Error'.
If it does work via the directly connected ethernet, then you know the MF is okay and we can concentrate on the network connection via the Airport. Which model of Airport do you have?
As for the second menu showing all zeroes, I think this is what the machine does. Our iR1022iF which is a very similar model shows the same thing when DHCP is used.

Still cannot print after reinstall driver

my doc is always on queue. delete is long time. Catridge is ok. printer show ready.
why?
pls assist, i want to print...

Problem resolved!
The Help Desk at Motorola assisted me to reinitiate the AppleTalk definitions using the browser-based interface with the SBG1000 gateway. All I had to do was to follow the add a printer steps and I was back in business!
Unfortunately, the next day I had a major hard-drive failure so now I am hosed again for a while. My G5 is in the shop to see if they can recover the drive's data.
I usually spend the day after Thanksgiving doing back ups and system maintenance but I couldn't get it to boot up.
Tried zapping PRAM, reset the memory management unit, reset firmware and ran the Disk Repair utility 4 times. Bummer.

HP 7520 PhotoSmart Series desktop app won't run after reinstall

For some reason, my HP Scaning Utility stopped seeing my preinter, which is connected wirelessly. I verified correct IP address and could print to it, but not scan. I unstalled the software and reinstalled it but now the desktop app wont run at all - though it owrks fine as a printer.
When I run the app, I get a script error error about an undefined or null reference for UDCString_UDC Name and when i say to halt the script the HP Printer Assistant app is up with no icons for Scan, printer setup etc. and a couple of sttatements like "dynamic content goes here."
There is a dialog box that's there that just has there file names:
C:\Program Files\HP\HP PhotoSmart 7520 series\Bin\UDC_files/UDC_main.json
C:\Program Files\HP\HP PhotoSmart 7520 series\Bin\UDC_files/tasks.json
C:\Program Files\HP\HP PhotoSmart 7520 series\Bin\UDC_files/url.json
C:\Program Files\HP\HP PhotoSmart 7520 series\Bin\UDC_files/localize_1033.json
The only thing in that directory is a subdirectory named img and that has one file in it - an icon file named hplogo
I've tried removing reinstalling 3 times, manually downloading software or using recommened assitant or wizard.
What should I do next?

Hey @cpolizzi !
Thanks for posting in the HP Support Forum.
I understand you're encountering a script error when trying to load the Printer Assistant for your Photosmart 7520 e-All-in-One Printer.
I have some troubleshooting steps that may resolve this particular issue. Click on the following article link and work through the steps in 'Solution One.':
HP Printer Assistant Opens with a Script Error or in Notepad
Should the error persist, you can complete what is effectively the same fix using the more hands-on manual approach in 'Solution Two.' You'll find all the applicable steps within the same article from HP.
Let me know how this works out for you.
Have a great day!

ITunes 7 won't run after reinstalled XP MediaCenter & reinstall iTunes7

We made backup copies of the iTunes folder on an external HD, then reinstalled WinXp MediaCenter (not full clean install) and moved iTunes files back from the external HD, then reinstalled new iTunes 7; however, it won't run now. When we click on the icon, it just says "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close, we are sorry for the inconvenience. If you are in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost. Please tell Microsoft about this problem. We have created an error report that you can send to us." We've tried reinstalling iTunes many times. We've turned Antivirus & Wndows firewall off and on when installing, but no difference.
Anyone got any suggestions because my wife and 2 teenagers are lost without their iTunes and iPods.
Thanks,

Someone in a different forum said to be sure that iTunes is installed under the primary user with Administrator Privileges. I'm pretty sure I did that, but I'll try it again to see what happens.

Mini server won't boot after reinstall.

I had to reinstall Snow Leopard Server on my Mac Mini Server. I did it via a firewire connection to my MBP. Everything runs fine when I boot in target disk mode from my MBP. Problem is when I disconnect the MBP and boot just mini it gives me an error message that says I need to restart the computer. I have the two 500gb drives on the mini configured in a raid array.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Josh

What the heck does a Mini Server come with for Install media anyway???
Where's the BDAqua SOP (standard operating procedure): which Mac Mini Server are we talking about? 2010 or 2011?
Did the mini ship with Snow Leopard? or is it a current 2011 model that shipped with Lion Server?
Did it always have that RAID array or was it something that you set up during the current reinstall?
I only have experience with the current 2011 Mini Server that comes with Lion Server. With that one, the included physical install media is exactly as you find with the current computers that ship with Lion pre-installed: none, none, and none. You boot from a recovery partition (be it on the internal) or on a USB key, and you download a 4+ GB folder that includes Lion + Server stuff. It's a slightly different "server bundle" from Lion client because the setup wizard after the install is specific to server.
(That's why I have no experience with the Lion Server app store two-step: purchase & install Lion client, then purchase & install (additional) Lion Server sw. My install is single, and I have only a single specific server setup wizard.)
If you save that folder, you can use it again from another computer to install back on the Mini Server put in FW target disk mode; I've done that from my MBP 13" (early 2011) and the resulting install of Lion Server on the Mini Server has always worked.

Kdemod won't start after reinstall

so i was reinstalling ach with kdemod on my laptop and after downloading everything and istalling as per the beginner's guide.
i cannot get to the DE i simply watch the splash screen after the login, and once it is done i am immediately notified of a plasma-workspace crash,
followed by something about a segmentation fault.
i am totally lost.
if there is anyhting i can do to help you help me, please tell me.

This is becouse of the network plasmoid. Either you plug in a cable, start and disable the plasmoid, or you uninstall it. You can use the knetworkmanager, or, as I recommend, switch to wicd. There is a wiki entry about wicd.

iPhoto is missing substructure that it needs to run.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

ITunes won't open after reinstalling Leopard.

I have just reinstalled Leopard and when I try open iTunes, it gives me the following message: "The iTunes library cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I have gone to the Apple site and downloaded version 8 and it still says the same thing.

As noted - you will need to do a 'Software Update' as all the OSX programs were reinstalled with what was on the Leopard OSX Disk.
You can try to d/l each update or let the 'Software Update' panel take care of you in System prefs. Including the latest update to OSX 10.5.6.

Mc OS X 10.6.8 won't update after reinstall following HD replacement

My mid 2010 imac osx 10.6.8 won't update to match my apps which are all 10.7+ from backup. Just had my 1TB seagate HD replaced and had to reboot off my osx install disk which is 10.6.4. Performed a series of software updates but it now wont go beyond 10.6.8. Now none of my core apps work and i have no way to update. Ideas?

From 10.6.8 onwards now you downlaod updates from the App store. In this case you need to download 10.7 or 10.8. You can no longer download 10.7 from the app store as its no longer availiable, only 10.8 is.
So Im guessing you purchased 10.7 at some point form the app store. Now if 10.7 was still available you could just search for it on the app store and download it again for free. But its not! If you can you need to purchase 10.8 from the app store and downlaod it. From there these apps should work again. If however you can't download 10.8 from the app store as you Mac is out of date you will need to take it in to an Apple store.
