Reconnecting Canon PIXMA 860 after iMac upgrade and router change

I just upgraded to a new iMac. I downloaded all the drivers for my Canon PIXMA 860 but the computer can not find the printer on the network (new router too) or if connected by USB. How do I get my iMac to recognize the printer? TIA

Modesto:
I have a Pixma 800 and I assume setting up yours is the same as mine. You have to connect the printer to the computer via USB cable directly and set it up wired with the setup disc that came with the printer. After you've done this disconnect the USB cable from the computer and connect it to the USB port of your router. In my case, it is the Airport Extreme station. I'm not sure after this but I would go to System Preferences under the Apple and then click on printer and Fax. If you do not find the printer there, click on the "+" and after a time, the printer should show up because the printer driver has been downloaded. I don't know if your printer driver has been downloaded with the Apple OS software. Then click on the Pixma 800 which should show up and then click add. I'm not sure about the rest but you must first make a direct USB connection between the printer and the computer. I hope this starts you on the way.

Connecting Canon Pixma 860 Printer Wirelessly

OK, I give up! Can someone please give me the steps on how to connect my Canon Pixma 860 printer wirelessly to my iMac? I am running Snow Leopard, all drivers are up to date, and I have a 2Wire AT&T modem/router. I've Googled, "forumed", called tech support and prayed, to no avail. This can't be this difficult! I would greatly appreciate assistance on this. It's now become a matter of principle to me. Thanks all....

I can't scan from my Canon Pixma 882 after installing Snow Leopard 10.6.3. I did get the printer to work after downloading the printer software from Apple. I used to have 10.4.1. How can I get my scanner to work?

Check here to see if there is an updated driver available for it:

Canon Pixma MP610 fails to print and returns a " Stopped - 'Filter' failed" error message.

Hi, I have updated to latest OS and now my Canon Pixma MP610 fails to print and returns a " Stopped - 'Filter' failed" error message.
I am running OS X 10.9.3 (13D65) on a 3.4 GHz Intel Core i5 iMac with 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
I've done a complete system re-install and also performed a targetted install of just the Canon Drivers - but all to no avail.
The printer is OK with regard ink-levels and is/was working fine. It will print out 'photocopies' independantly of the iMac. Additionally, from within the Print Queue I can view the ink-levels so there are comms between the iMac and the Canon - it's just that 'Print' seems to be off topic.
Can anyone help as I have to get a document out tonight
Many thanks in advance

Is that device desSystem Preferences - Print & Scan - Right click the printer and select Reset Printing System. DO NOT use any Canon software.
You did not advise how it is connected (USB- Wi-Fi- etc..) so it's a little difficult to assist with so little information.

Hi,
I am using a Nvidia 4200M adapter in my Laptop, Driver 266.96, Direct X 11
In my desktop I am using an ATI XFX 6950, latest revision drivers (I am not at home right now so I cant get that info).
The issue I did describe above, but it was a long explanation.
In some flash games the game files load initially and get as far as the "click to start" button. Then the flash area usually goes either all white or all black (usually depending on the falsh game default background color) and then it stays that color. Cant see anything after hitting start (usually most games have an intro video or animation before the game starts, but I cant see any of it.
For the very few games that do start, the flash game or application does not seem to work correctly in that when the rare game starts, it wont save any game files or save files to the pc and so if I exit the game (navigate away to another page or close browser) and then later come back, even though I click the option to save games (and ensure that the flash application slider shows it can save files and lots of space) it does not save and I have to start from the beginning all the time.
More explanation I gave above.

Canon PIXMA 860 and 560 not recognized by Image Capture

I can scan from the printers to my MacBook. And I go to System Prefernces / Printers and Faxes and both are shown as printers and as scanners. I can open from their and scan but when I open image capture it doesn't find any scanners.
I down loaded and installed both the newest canon printer and scanner drivers as well as the newest ICA driver. Still they are not recognized.
What am I missing?

Just for testing purposes, I removed the canon printer, removed all canon software and updates from my system and then used the original CD that came with my 870 to reinstall the printer and lo and behold, Image Capture started working again for wireless scanning.
Hello and thanks for the feedback.
There are two scanner drivers available for many of the new models of Canon AIOs. There is the ICA driver and the Canon scanner driver.
During my tests on clean builds of 10.6.x I found that my Canon AIOs were able to print and scan via wireless by simply installing the Canon update provided by Apple. This update consisted of the then latest printer driver for many models of Canon AIO and inkjet and the ICA driver. Canon's scanner driver was not included as part of this download from Apple.
The ICA driver is installed in HD > Library > Image Capture > Devices and the package is called Canon IJScanner1. Later versions of the ICA driver also installed another package, Canon IJScanner2. These ICA drivers provide a minimal amount of scanning selections and only appear to work with Image Capture and Preview. Other applications like Canon's own MP Navigator and Adobe Acrobat Pro will not scan with just the ICA driver installed. The Canon scanner driver for the respective model is required.
From what you have said and from my own testing I propose that the original CD did not contain the ICA driver but the Canon scanner driver for the MX870. And with only this driver installed you were able to scan using Image Capture via the wireless. I don't recall ever testing a 10.6 build where only the Canon scanner driver was installed and not the ICA driver (it is present by default on 10.6 but only has older models of Canon AIO's - your MX870 is not there). Had I tested this I believe that I would have been able to scan via wireless using Image Capture.
I also propose that once you installed the Canon v2.4.1 update, which contains a version of the ICA driver package that is also available from Canon web sites, then Image Capture stopped using the Canon MX870 scanner driver and used the ICA driver instead, thus stopping you from wireless scanning.
Right now I am using a new build of 10.6.6 on my MBPro. So that I could print to my MP990 at home and an MG6150 at work I simply installed the v2.4.1 update and have printer and scanner queues in Print & Fax for both. I have not installed scanner drivers for either device and at home with my MP990 Image Capture does not show any device being available, while Preview does show the MP990 once I select 'Import from Scanner > Include Networked Devices'. Also, Acrobat Pro 9 does not show my MP990 being available.
And with regards to the v2.4.1 update, the drivers included are provided by Canon to Apple, just as the other vendor drivers are provided to Apple, to make life easier for us Mac users. The drivers are available individually and get downloaded and installed automatically when the respective model is connected to the Mac and no local driver is present. As for the package including all these individual vendor drivers, this would be created by Apple.

Iphoto wont open after system upgrade and iLife install

I installed Leopard and reallized i had to also buy iLife because the old version of iphoto was not supported by the the new operating system. Installed iLife and everything works exept iphoto. It acts as though it is "loading library" and then a pop-up window shows up saying:
"The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iphoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previouse versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process may take several minutes depending on the number of photos in the library."
I have hit "upgrade". But it still does not open.
I have about 9000 photos saved on an external drive.
I have repaired permissions as well as trashed iphoto and re-installed.
I read similar posts and am tempted to create a new library with library photo manager but am affraid i will lose some of my pictures.
I should include that because I couldn't open after the os update, I went into the my photo folders through finder and added new pix that I needed to get off of my camera. I've sinced trashed those folders.
Any ideas?
THanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Thanks for the heads up on the out of date screenshot of BatChmod. It's been updated now. If all you your efforts to get your library updated and running fail you might try rebuilding the library with iPhoto Library Manager. It creates a new library based on the data in the AlbumData.xml file and leaves your current library untouched. Here's how that would work:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - 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
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - 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 untouched for further attempts at fixing or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Canon PIXMA MX310 (Scanner Fax Copier and Printer) bought at Apple Store

I've been on iMac for a week. Having problems getting print going. I share the above Canon attached to a Windows PC. From my iMac I can see the PC and share files, and I can also see the printer. From Sys Pref I run through the setup printer routine and set it as my printer but nothing prints. Since this exact model is not listed in the Canon printers on iMac I've been selecting random ones since they all have the same Gutenprint version. Originally I loaded the Canon software on the iMac and was going from there but then decided to put the printer on the PC and have since deleted the Canon folder on the iMac and loaded it on the XP machine. Same results. When setting up I get the Windows challenge for a valid account on the Windows PC. I've been selecting Guest since there is no account other than the compaq_owner account and that does not have a password. Anyway, I'm probably doing something dumb, have read appropriate parts of newly purchased books, perused lists, but this sure feels like wrestling with Windows machines as in the past. I hope this situation is familiar to others and I look forward to any advice you may have. Thank you.

I've been to so many lists, discussions and threads that I can't even remember if it was this site that led me to the answer or if I Googled it. In any event, K3bert.com had exactly the same problem described and there was a link to the correct CUPS + Gutenprint v5.0.2. It worked for me but I'm not sure I can, in a general sense, answer other problems with the solution I found for me. I have learned so far that you need CUPS and the type of connection between your printer and Windows machine is important. Other than that it was a crap shoot as to what would happen once I started Adding a Printer again. I fully expected to go another 3 days like this. Now I can go through the same experience to make sure my wife's Tiger, not Leopard, will be able to connect to the printer. Thanks to all who suggested a solution or path to enlightenment.

Canon PIXMA MX850 networking w/o a router

I have a MacBook Pro connected via ethernet directly to a cable modem, and a PowerBook G4 connected via shared airport wireless.
My intention is to I have a Canon PIXMA MX850 connected via ethernet to the PowerBook G4, and be able to print from both laptops.
I am unable to get either laptops to recognize the printer when connected via ethernet... the printer appears to get an valid IP address (192.168.1.123), but it is not useful, for both laptops choose 192.168.2.1... any ideas?
I currently have no router, or USB cable. I realize either of these items would solve my problems, and more, but I want to know if it is possible to directly connect the printer and laptop via ethernet and have stuff work.

What you want to do with Ethernet is possible. The key is ensuring you have the correct IP address subnets in all devices.
If your PowerBook has an IP address of 192.168.2.1, then its subnet is determined by the subnet mask. If you currently have a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, then this would mean your Mac has a subnet of 192.168.2 and a network address of 1.
If the printer has 192.168.1.123 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, then it has a subnet of 192.168.1, which means it is a different network to the Mac's and would therefore require a router to connect the two networks (subnets).
So, without getting a router, all you need to do is change the IP address of the printer to the same subnet as the Mac's, ie 192.168.2. This would then allow the Canon driver software to 'see' the printer. Note that to add this network printer, you have to select More Printers > Canon IJ Network. This should show the MX850 with its MAC address displayed in brackets. Select this and the print using menu to automatically change to Canon IJ Printer. Click Add to finish and now try a print.

After upgrading to iTunes 10.2.1.1, began my iTouch 3rd gen IOS upgrade (to 4. whatever). Received the -9809 error "We could not complete your iTunes Store Request". Did a restore and still frozen on the USB pointing to iTunes logo and still receiving the -9808 error. Tried rebooting, no success, put iTunesHelp.exe in Norton, even disabled Firewall during the restore to ensure no issues.
I even updated Windows Vista...
My iTouch was absolutely fine until the upgrade...any suggestions...I am beyond frustrated right now!
Thanks!

Here is Apple's support document on the 9808 error.
Read it carefully and see if you missed any of the recommendations listed.
