Scan Directly to USB Drive

Can I scan a document directly to a USB drive connected to the OfficeJet 7310?   I did not connect my computer to it, but hope I can do scanning a document directly to a connected USB.  The manaul is unclear to me as to how I can do it. Sympton:  Whenever I plugged in my USB drive, there was a message saying  "Only PicBridge capable device in PIcBridge mode is supported".

  • Extremely slow wireless xfer from Macbook to USB drive on Airport Extreme

    I have tried to set up my external 1TB seagate USB drive to my AE for wireless network storage (only 1 computer on network, but I also have an AppleTV). If the drive is connected directly to my MB the transfer speeds are fine, but when I try to go wireless the speeds are extremely slow - to the point of unusable. I am sure these issues have been discussed previously, but I cant find an obvious solution. Is there anyway to run network diagnostics to see what my MB->AE transfer speeds are and what my AE-WWW speeds are? I dont recall the cable bandwidth that I get from Time Warner - but it is one of the faster options.......

    There are at least two explanations for this: (1) Your wireless connection is like to be slower than a direct USB connection. (2) Apple base stations are quite when serving connected disk drives. One reference cites 10-30% of the speed of a directly-connected USB drive.

    I wouldn't expect that to be a factor in the performance you're seeing.

  • Switch wireless drive to connected directly through USB

    Hello, hoping someone has a clue as to how to accomplish this:
    I have a USB drive which I connected to my iMac and shared wirelessly to backup my MacBook Pro.
    After several weeks of pain I decided to connect the drive directly to the MacBook.
    TM will not recognize it. There is a MacBookPro.sparsebundle image in the drive that if I double click will mount the drive that the MacBook used to backup.
    Great! I can even see my older backups there, half the battle won.
    The problem: I can't get TM to recognize this disc as the one it was backing to before, even though it allows me to go into TM to recover backups!!!
    Is there a way to get TM to recognize this disc and use to to continue backing up and not have to create a whole new backup branch?
    Thanks.

    No, sorry, Time Machine cannot back up from a network location.
    Does anybody have other suggestions (without having to buy any more gear) for storage/back-up that don't require that I plug that external HD to a computer every time I want to access the data?
    The 3rd-party apps CarbonCopyCloner and ChronoSync (and probably others) can back up from a network location.

  • Is there a possibility to download files directly to the external usb drive in Firefox for Android?

    I have the Android device that support external usb hard drive, when I want to download some files via Firefox there are only two possible "places" where I can put the files - external memory or SD card. It will be nice if there would be an option to save file on ext. usb drive.

    Hi Nix_N1:
    Yeah I don't know about this and I don't have an Android device that supports USB storage.
    What Android device are you using and what operating system (Jellybean? Ice Cream sandwich ?)
    I asked the Mozilla QA folks and they said Firefox for Android uses the Android platform download directory so the USB drive *should* show up if it registers properly with Android.
    They suggested the following:
    # removing the SD card and seeing if it shows up in place of the SD card.
    # perhaps changing the following preference (type "about:config" in the url bar without the quotation marks)
    ''' browser.download.dir'''
    will fix it ('''WARNING:untested and unsupported but hopefully this might help''')
    Regardless I suggest filing a bug at (I looked but couldn't find a bug that corresponds to this):

  • USB Drive Resets during file copy, interrupting file operations

    Fresh Arch Linux install, working USB thumb drive (Windows, previous Arch Linux setups, etc.), formatted FAT32.
    Seems to randomly reset, eject, and auto-re-mount during extensive file operations (i.e. copying 4gb worth of 800 files from the USB thumb drive to disk).
    I've tried various USB ports to no avail; no external hub being used.
    Thoughts? Not sure where to begin diagnosing:

  • HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m not recognizing any USB drive

    When I go to scan to my USB, the USB drive is not recognized as a USB drive. I am using wireless, which works fine.  Is there a trick to scanning to a USB?

    Hi , Perhaps the USB drive you are using is too large, I believe with a memory card, anything higher than 2 gb is too large, I wonder if the USB drive is the same. I will look into the possibility. In the meantime, Have you tried an alternate USB drive? Let's perform a hard reset. To do so, leave the printer on and unplug the power cable for 1 minute. While it is unplugged, hold down the power button on the printer for 10-15 seconds to release any built up power, then after the minute has passed, plug the printer back in. Also, do you have the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or is it in a surge protector or power bar? Even if you have been using a surge protector/power bar all this time and you feel it is not the cause, please connect it to a wall outlet just so we can eliminate the power source as the root cause.   Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector
    In this document you will see, ISSUE: Problems or issues may arise when an HP LaserJet series printer is connected to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), a power strip, or a surge protector ^ This is not limited to Laserjet printers.  Please let me know if you are able to get the printer to scan to the USB memory device and we can continue from there.
     

  • Forgot windows password - Cannot boot w/ USB Drive IdeaPad N585

    Hi All,
    Like the subject line says, my son forgot his password.
    I did some research and found a way to reset it using a USB drive to boot from.
    The problem is that Windows 8 will not boot from the USB.I tried 2 different software with no luck.
    In the BIOS I even disabled the Secure Boot option thinking that had something to do with it.
    The USB Boot option is enabled.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you,

  • Can I use a USB drive to install windows 7 on my Macbook Pro?

    I currently have the Windows 7 iso on a usb flash drive.  I am running bootcamp 4.0.3, and there is no option to create a windows 7 install disk via usb drive.  Also I cannot download the Windows support software.  Is there a direct download to the drivers, or another version of bootcamp that would allow me to install via usb, like the MBA?  Or is there a way to work around this problem?  I don't have access to any writable CD/DVDs so the usb drive is really my only option currently.

    Copy the ISO to your disk and try using that to write the ISO to (another) USB device.
    Instructions for the Air: https://support.apple.com/kb/HT4407
    download a free iso burning program for Mac (we used SimplyBurns Mac). That program runs you through the necessary steps to properly burn the iso file you need. After doing so, Bootcamp recognized the installation file and everything worked as it should.

    http://simplyburns.en.softonic.com/mac
    If for some reason you downloaded Windows from Microsoft instead of buying a package with a disc, you need to download the ISO version and burn it to a DVD. See this article on downloading the ISO: http://www.mydigitallife.info/windows-7-iso-x86-and-x64-official-direct-download -links-ultimate-professional-and-home-premium/ (Make sure you choose the ISO that matches the version you bought).

  • TS1538 What do I do after step 6 in "If the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is not listed"?

    i'm very confused about step 5, "Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed" > "If the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is not listed", what do I do after step 6? I looked for and found the entry that recognizes the device as a camera, "Apple iPhone, now what? I'm trying to resolve an issue. After an iTunes upgrade in July 2012, I have not been able to get my iTunes to recognize any of my devices. I have uninstalled/reinstalled iTunes, all the steps. Now I'm on this one and I don't know what to do after this step 6. I looked and found the entry.... now what??? I am out of room on my phone because everything I buy on iTunes on the computer mysteriously appears on my iPhone 4, and everything I buy on my iPhone mysteriously uploads onto my iTunes the next time I open it. My phone will charge when connected to the computer, and Windows recognizes it and asks how I want to open pictures, etc. But in iTunes it will not show up under Devices. This is getting beyond ridiculous and I have to get some of this music off of my phone!

    Found a possible solution for me.
    While the phone was plugged into my computer and iTunes is CLOSED.
    1. I went to Services in Windows.
    2. I selected Apple Mobile Device and right clicked and selected "Stop".
    3. Then I right-clicked again and selected "Start".
    4. Then I went to Device Manager and right clicked my iPhone with the yellow alert icon and selected "Uninstall".  You will get a warning about uninstalling the device.  Click OK.
    5.  At the top of Device Manager I clicked the Action menu and selected "Scan for Hardware Changes".
    This re-installed the iPhone and everything started working again.

  • Slow system when 1TB Store.E USB drive connected

    HI,
    I bought a 1TB Store.E USB drive.
    After I installed the drive the whole system reacts very slow when the drive is access after not being use for a while.
    Is there a standby modus and if yes, can it be switched off?
    Regards
    Heinz

    Hi
    >After I installed the drive the whole system reacts very slow when the drive is access after not being use for a while.
    I think this happens because the 1TB external HDD needs to be scanned and indexed by system after the HDD has not been used for a while
    You can try to check the Win 7 power options.
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD12017W0001R01.htm
    I would recommend to disable the power saving option for the USB ports.
    Maybe this helps

  • Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad?  I want to bring RAW photo files from my camera, through the IPad and back to an external hard drive.  One of my cameras does not use an SD card.  How can I do this?

    Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad?  I want to bring RAW files from my camera through the IPad and out to an external hard drive.  One of my cameras has an SD card but the other one doesn't have a card that would fit in any of the camera devices I've seen on line.  Realted to this, I bought the IPad camera accessory.  Can I put the SD card in the device and also hook the external hard drive to the USB port of the accessory and download from the camera to the hard drive?  Can I put Lightroom or the Nikon photo editing software on the IPad?  Right now I carry a PC laptop and external hard drives with me on wildernes trips.  Internet and WiFi are not available.  Because I shoot so many photos and they're in RAW I need to download from the camera to the external drive because I run out of memory on the PC (and it has much more memory than the IPad).  I have Nikon NX software and lightroom on my PC.  I'd love to be able to reduce the weight I carry by using the IPad to edit my photos each night while on trips.  Is this possible and how would I do it?  I'd appreciate any guidance.

    No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
    For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.

  • Why do USB drives plugged into USB hubs make my Mac Book Pro (Retina late 2013) wake from sleep?

    I have 2 x USB hubs, a Logitech USB 2.0 hub and a Broway USB 3.0 hub. Tested both and both seem to be the cause of my late 2013 Mac Book Pro waking from sleep. I ran syslog to find out why (syslog |grep -i "Wake reason") and the reason I got back was "kernel[0] <Notice>: Wake reason: XHC1" - this means nothing to me, but it didn't take too much mucking about to hunt the problem down and figure out it was the USB hub with any USB drive attached. If the drive is attached directly to the computer. No problem, computer sleeps fine.
    This was a problem I encountered (and never solved) with OSX 10.6.8, a 2008 Macbook Pro the same Logitech USB 2.0 hub, but with different drives. I put the problem down to a bug that never got solved in an old system. But I am simply AMAZED after my update to a new MBP and new system that it is still about almost 6 years, a dozen MBP's and 4 systems later.
    The other problem is that not only does the USB drive/ USB hub combo wake the computer it also loses the drive upon sleep and mounts it again upon wake. Then repeats this process every couple of minutes. And it obviously doesn't eject the drives properly because each time I return to the computer after I put it to sleep or let it go to sleep I get a giant list of "Disk Not Ejected Properly" notifications about it. Which I'm guessing could eventually cause some file damage.
    I've tried combinations of different drives, different hubs (a Belkin and a no-name Chinese brand 2.0 hub) and the problem persists. Is there a solve to this problem? I'm surprised to see so little posts on forums about this. Am I just unlucky and got another combination of faulty/problematic hardware, or is this a real problem that exists for everyone? If not I would love to know if people have found winning combos of USB hubs and drives. But if it is, then it HAS to be solved.
    If you have a Macbook Pro, then you are limited to 2 USB outlets, this is obviously a bare minimum and I would say that 95% of people using their laptop computer in the office or at home have a hub, and very likely a USB drive attached to it. I know actual Apple reps don't really pay much attention to the community support posts, but I've got 6 months worth of Applecare left and would like suggestions about how to get Apple's attention about this problem.
    BTW Jettison (a 3rd party app that ejects drives properly before sleep) is not a solve. It is a 3rd party app that tries to fill a hole in a broken system. I don't want to eject my drive upon sleep, I want it to got the **** to sleep.

    Is there a pattern to the time of day or other detail that may be
    traced back to a OS X system cause of this odd phenomenon?
    Are there any copies of system files on any of the attached USB
    external drives? Any libraries, such as iTunes, iPhoto, etc?
    Once the drives are indexed by Spotlight, are their permissions
    ignored by the OS X? Content, if neutral, should not affect the
    wake or sleep cycle; especially if they're ignored by the OS X.
    Could there be a bad cable or other component? If so that would
    be a difficult process of elimination to detect it. Usually replacing
    most suspect components in the USB stream (external to Macs)
    is a rote way to mechanically test that idea; & not 100% sure.
    Does the equipment all have a good ground to the utility or house
    electrical field? An intermittent ground may affect more than sleep.
    Hard to say at this point. Maybe a late-night talk radio guru on
    remote viewing could peer into your situation and sleuth it out?
    Sorry to have run out of ideas, but the process must be electrical
    & mechanical to some extent. - Or perhaps odd software inspired.
    Do you have any phone-home spyware items inside, just jumping

  • USB drive attached to Airport Extreme as a time machine backup?

    I have a WD 750gb external USB drive that I was using as a "time machine" with my iMac. My Airport Extreme has a USB port and I want to move the WD over to there, but continue to use it as time machine. Possible to do this? If yes, then how?
    Thanks much

    You can, but Time Machine uses a disk image file for the Time Machine archive (instead of a folder) when a network drive is used. Therefore, you may have to start your Time Machine archive over again.
    If you have one Mac to back up with Time Machine, it is better to leave the drive attached directly to the computer over USB. Your initial and hourly Time Machine backups will complete faster.
