Scanner from hp Photosmart c3100 doesn't work but I need it to!

I have MAC OS X Version 10.5.8.
I have a HP Photosmart C3100 3 in one.  Though, I can print fairly fine, it will not scan anything.  I actually can't recall it ever scanning since I got this MAC but I just rolled with it... However, I now need this option greatly.
Any advice would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

As a last ditch effort I tried this link: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=219&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw _lang=&product=1146331#N191
I downloaded & installed the HP driver package HP_Installer_Photosmart_Full_Group12_10.3.dmg which is the driver package for OS X 10.3 even though I am running OS X 10.6.8.
It is working... for today.
I suggest you go to the above link and start downloading & installing driver packages until you find one that works.
When you DO find one that works:
Keep the DMG handy!
Keep the LINK where you found it handy!
NEVER let Apple Updates update the driver package. It will try every time.
You can temporarily disable the update package from Apple Updates by selecting it and hitting the DELETE key. This will work for a while, deleting it from the update list, but eventually it will reassert itself and reappear on the list.
Next time AVOID Hewlett Packard.
In the meantime, I am looking for a deal on a nonHP Printer/Scanner.
HAPPY MACKING you Macovite!

  • Photostream from PC to Ipad doesn't work

    Hello, I have installed ICloud on my Ipad en on my Windows 8 laptop. Photostream from Ipad to laptop is ok but from laptop to Ipad doesn't work.
    I have contacted Apple support but the couldn't figure it out, I tried everything: disable firewall in router and laptop, also disabeld Defender, installed a new
    ICloud, installed new OS on the Ipad, all the photo's are in the upload folder, the battery of the Ipad is 100% filled, the Wifi works ok. etc.etc. I suppose that
    there must be a wrong configuration somewhere, perhaps the Wifi must be in BootP on the Ipad or I have to enable a kind of service in the laptop or perhaps
    it is just a stupidity from me? Who has an idea?
    Thnx RJZ

    Looks like they changed how this works in iCloud Control Panel 2.0
    "On a PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later, open a Windows Explorer window. Select Photo Stream under Favorites. Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select photos to import to My Photo Stream, and then click Open."
    And here is the source:

  • Translation from CS5 to Cloud doesn't  work correct, navi and linked images are broken.

    Translation from CS5 to Cloud doesn't  work correct, <navi> and linked images are broken.
    The data of CS5 was created at another PC. I installed Cloud version into two different PC. One has had the site data since dreamweaver CS5 and it works correct in Cloud version. Another PC got the site data from remote server and it doesn't work correct. <navi> and linked image are broken.

    Another PC got the site data from remote server and it doesn't work correct. <navi> and linked image are broken.
    This implies your site is not properly defined in DW.  Go to Site > Manage Sites.
    Or simply go to your other installation of DW and export the site definition file from Manage Sites.
    Save it to a flash stick or other removable drive.  Then import the STE file into your 2nd installation of  DW.

  • I am trying to "personalize my cs2 software online download with the serial number from my original boxed cd set and it didn't work. I tried using the download serial number and that doesn't work either. Need help!

    I am trying to "personalize" my cs2 software online download with the serial number from my original boxed cd set and it didn't work. I tried using the download serial number and that doesn't work either. Need help!

    I understand that you have also used the download link & serial number from Adobe - CS2 Downloads, if still the CS2 is not working, then please refer to the system requirement for e.g System requirements | Photoshop
    The issue can be that the present operating system might not be compatible with the CS2.

    Are you not seeing the icon of the app you just downloaded (it happens sometimes, and the quick fix is to reset your iPad)? Or are you running out of space on your iPad?

  • I am trying to download a file from Safari. It doesn't work.

    I am trying to download a file from Safari. It doesn't work. It always comes up with a notification saying, 'Safari could not download this file'. Why does it do that? More importantly, what should I do? how do I download it?
    Thanks to the users who reply to this. It will help me a lot.

    What type of file is it?
    If safari can't natively open the file, or there is no App installed thatr can, it won't download.

  • How to trigger a MouseEvent from TLF, my test doesn't work

      Hi,
          I run into a problem while using the Listener of TLF,
          Inside  the  TextFlow,  I have several Paragraphs.
          What I wish to accomplish is to trigger a mouse Event, like ROLL_OVER, ROLL_OUT event , when  my mouse is over a on one of the Paragraphs.
          I used to experiment a while , but never seem to work, just the examples below
          _textFlow.addEventListener(FlowElementMouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,onMouseHandler);
          _textFlow.addEventListener(FlowElementMouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,onMouseHandler);
           ///   which doesn't work.         i need the event response ,so i can manipulate the paragraph
    private function onMouseHandler(e:FlowElementMouseEvent):void
         trace("onMouseHandler" +  e.type  );
         var para:ParagraphElement = e.flowElement.getParagraph();
         trace(para.textLength);
    Thanks  in   advance!!!

    I have a MacBook Pro bought in dec 2009. Currently has mountain lion osx installed. Worked like a dream until today. Randomly froze, so I restarted it. To find I got a grey screen. It wouldn't start. Also note my DVD drive doesn't work, but mountain lion was installed via App Store anyway.
    So here's what I done so far:
    tried resetting PRAM - No success
    Done disk utility. Disk verified with no errors. I even re formatted disk. - no success starting.
    Tried re installing mountain lion via download . It froze halfway installing -no success.
    Tried backing up a time machine backup from my USB hard drive. It froze at 1% - no success
    Tried booting from safe mode - no success
    Tried the command line boot - no success.
    Please someone help!

    Sounds like the hard dre has left the building, Died, in the Sh*tter, Gone to the hard drive resting place in the sky.
    Buy a new drive connect it to the system with a SATA to USB adapter and see if you can install Mt Lion on that drive connected externally. If you can then the drive inside your system has failed.
    Oh Wait!!!! You have the 2009 model. They are known for bad drive to logic board cables. So it may not be the drive itself but the cable going from the drive to the logic board. Do the same as above then if the system runs OK with the new drive connected externally install it in the system and see if it boots. If it does you are good to go. If it doesn't then it is more then likely the cable that hs failed.
    I would suggest you also SAVE a copy of that download of Mt Lion and create a USB install drive from it using Lion Disk Maker, once you get your system up and running.

  • I have just used migration assistant to import photos (using an ethernet cable) from my PC. It has worked but they have gone into a new user on my MacPro. How can I merge them into the one user account.

    I have just used migration assistant to import photos (using an ethernet cable) from my PC. It has worked but they have gone into a new user on my MacPro. How can I merge them into the one user account.

    How many pictures (or how many bytes) are we talking?  Now that the pictures are imported one way to cross users is to use a removable drive (although large volumes of files preclude this).
    The other is to login as the user where the pictures are, then copy them into the public drop box of the user where you want the picture.
    The arrow is showing (in ths example) copy files from the Pictures folder for my user to the guest user accounts public dropbox.  When you do this you may have to authenticate and you won't be able to see the results of the copy until you log in as the other user.
    All users are in the folder "/Users/"
