  • Since upgrading to Lion, my HP officejet pro 7550 orubts, but will not scan

    since upgrading to Lion, my hp officejet 7550 will print fine but won't scan---any suggestions?? I downloaded the drisavers from Apploe,but that didn't solve the issue.

    Hi @Southglen,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I noticed that your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer will not recognize your wireless router password. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!
    I would recommend to go through this guide, How to Find the WEP or WPA Key or Password for Your Wireless Network, just to double-check your wireless password, in case it might have changed.
    I would also suggest a hard reset, by going to this post How to perform a Hard Reset, by @Rich1.
    After those two steps, I would suggest a firmware update, Getting Printer Updates for HP Officejet Pro 8600 (N911), Officejet 6600 (H711) and Officejet 6700 P....
    Let's start with these steps, and we will go from there!

  • Since upgrading to Lion I cannot connect to my Buffalo Terastation

    Since upgrading to Lion I cannot connect to my Buffalo Terastation and get the following message. "The version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported. Please contact your system administrator to resolve the problem".  I have updated the firmware on the Terastation but still can’t connect to it. I have also posted this message on the Buffalo forum. Any suggestions?

    Lion changed the rules for NAS communication.  See this Web page.  As that page dates from last July, I'd hope that NAS vendors would have fixed things by now.  I'd ask Buffalo directly whether that product supports the protocol(s) described in that article.

  • Time machine ridiculously slow since upgrading to Lion

    Hiya,
    I have a Macbook Pro and an Apple TimeCapsule, since upgrading to Lion last week, it is having stupidly slow throughput, i've had to cancel the backups as i don't have the hours in the day to let it complete.  this isn't a 3rd party device, it's a 1TB native Apple TimeCapsule.  Is anyone else seeing this speed issue?  It's making the Macbook run super hot too while it sits backing up so slowly. 
    Since the update it now wants to backup 8GB which at this rate will take all week!
    Please tell me i'm not going mad
    Many thanks,
    Emma.

    The first backup after installing lion is going to take a while due to all of the new files and such. I also noticed that lion does a lot of file indexing after installation, both for spotlight AND time machine disks. When checking out processes, mdworker/mdworker32/mds (all indexing services from what I understand) were running for 1 or 2 days, but now the HDD activity (and time machine backups) are back to "normal".
    My advice is to leave your Mac on overnight for 1 or 2 nights so it can get caught up...

  • Request for Help - Very slow and programs crash, etc. since upgrading to Lion

    I have searched the forum for a while looking for answers, but everyone seems to have different issues.
    Since upgrading to Lion last week, EVERYTHING is running slow.  I have an iMac (late 2009) with 4GB ram and over 700GB of free hard drive space.
    I am not running a ton of heavy duty programs -- just the basics - word, entourage, safari, preview, and occasionally Photoshop, iPhoto, etc.  I haven't even tried to edit any video since upgrading.
    I continually get the "spinning wheel" when doing the most simple tasks like deleting a mail message, or opening a pdf file.
    I have done all software updates.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Kim

    Entourage & Photoshop are both serious memory hogs.    Export your data to Mail, Addressbook and iCal*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/entouragemigration.html
    Next for Photoshop, make sure to follow tips on the http://roaringapps.com/apps:table website for your version of Photoshop, to ensure you aren't overtaxing your system, and that you are usign any applications that are current for Lion. If you have any WiFi routers, make sure WPA2 password protection is on, and not WEP, and not an open network, and that their firmware has been tested with Lion.  Lastly, speed issues may be due to website design.  Try different browsers*: http://www.macmaps.com/browser.html

  • HT2506 Is there anyone else who is having problems printing with Preview since upgrading to Lion OS X?

    Since upgrading to Lion OS X, I have not been able to print any of my documents that were created in Adobe PDF.  All calls to customer support have been a bust.
    When I try to print anything it comes out looking like this:
    Apple PREVIEW team!!!!  PLEASE HELP!!!

    Hi Linc...
    Here is a copy of your prior post to me on a different forum...
    Still no resolution...

    Re: Anyone having problems with Preview since upgrading to Lion OS X?  When using a pdf form that allows multiline text, I am finding that the printing is completely illegible.  The lines are stacking on top of each other.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, selectHelp from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    Note: If you’ve activated FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

    Did all of that yesterday, with the Apple Representative on the phone, and nope, still a problem...it was kind of exciting, really, they kept going up and up the tiers of support until I got disconnected...Fortunately I had the email address of the gentleman who was helping me so that I could email him back and let him know that we got disconnected...as you might imagine, he still has not emailed me back.  They were able to receive a copy of the form that I use for charting and try it in their facility on their computers, so we know:
    1- it is not just my computer.
    2- it occurred only after installing Lion OS X, not sure if they have tried it on Snow Leopard, but that's what I would have done if I was them...assuming that somewhere in Apple someone has not upgraded to Lion.
    3- it is not just my software.
    I think the problem is with the newer iteration of Preview  not communicating well with the Adobe .pdf.  probably some line of coding that needs to be written and insertedinto their program for multiline text.
    :-)  Thank you for your help!

  • Since upgrading to LION unable to connect to wifi, in system preferences it says wifi off - cannot override it, what should i do?

    since upgrading to LION unable to connect to wifi, in system preferences it says wifi off - cannot override it, what should i do?

    While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t run Mountain Lion. There's a Mountain Lion Support Community where everybody has Mountain Lion. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/os_x_mountain_lion

  • Since upgrading to Lion the screen auto brightness adjusting icon comes on allmost all the time even though i've switched it of in preferences?? it's so annoying..any ideas??

    Since upgrading to Lion the screen auto brightness adjusting icon comes on allmost all the time even though i've switched it of in preferences?? it's so annoying..any ideas??

    I don't know exactly what the issue is, but I think I do. Are you talking about what happens when you start up your MBP, full brightness, with power cable in - and when you're using battery only, the brightness dims? If so, this is a feature designed to make sure your monitor is bright enough while using batteries - but not so bright as to cause an undue drain on power.
    I don't know about a cure to this issue, if indeed this is what you're talking about.

  • Safari works great on my iMac, but not so well on my Macbook Pro since upgrading to Lion.  I get a message that I am not connected to the internet when I try to open a webpage even though the wireless icon at the top of my screen shows I am connected.

    Since upgrading to Lion I am having problems with Safari on my Macbook Pro.  I am using wifi to access the internet and the internet works in all other application except for Safari.  When I try to access a webpage most times I get a error message saying I am not connected to the internet.  If I click on diagnose the problem, I get connect again to the internet through the diagnostic process and the webpage generally works.  This is not a problem when wired to the internet.

    Check your network settings, in particular the advanced setting "DNS Server". If it is by chance 127.0.0.1, make sure to change is and use a know DNS Server (from Google for example, or your own Router local address).

  • Ever since upgrading to Lion I keep getting the error message "disk was not ejected properly."

    Ever since upgrading to Lion on my iMac G5 Intel Core 2 Duo, I keep getting the error message "disk was not ejected properly."  I have repaired permissions and reformatted my external LaCie 2TB USB hard disk, but the error continues.  I use this disk for my Time Machine backups.  This always seems to happen when the computer wakes from sleep, but not consistently.  The computer was asleep overnight and backed up as soon as it awakend this morning.  Two hours later I get the improper ejection message.  I have used the same external disk with Snow Leopard (all versions), but never had this error message or problem.  This disk has been in use without any problems since February, 2011. Upgrading to Lion is when this problem began. This is the below message (but from online image from Snow Leopard, but Lion message is essentially the same).

    I had a similar issue. Mine was with a Seagate GoFlex drive. The solution was to install GoFlex for Mac 1.1.2 which included a 64-bit driver to disable the drives built in sleep timer:

  • Can't always connect to remote speakers since upgrading to lion

    In one fell swoop I did a lot of upgrading, and ever since I haven't been able to reliably connect to any remote speakers using iTunes on my iMac.  From iTunes (or the Remote app on the phone or iPad) I can see remote speakers, but I cannot connect.  From iTunes, I just get the stripy progress bar, and it won't ever go away unless I cancel out.  From the remote app, it just becomes unrepsonsive.
    Context:
    I have a iMac with OSX Lion, that I upgraded from Snow Leopard a few weeks ago. At about the same time, I updated iTunes to 10.5 from the last 10.4 release to be able to get the IOS 5 update on my and my wife's phones.
    I have an Airport Extreme connected to our broadband, with 3 airport expresses in various places in our house connected on a wireless network to stereos for remote speakers.  The iMac is connected to the Airport Extreme via ethernet.  After upgrading the OS and iTunes, I got a notice that there was a firmware update for my two most recent airports (the Extreme and one of the expresses).  They are running version 7.6 of the firmware, the other two airports are running 6.3.
    There has been no change to the physical environment -- no sources of interference or anything like that.  I can play music from the Music app on my phone to any of the remote speakers, there is no problem there. 
    About half the time, if I restart everything (wireless base stations, and then the computer) I can get the remote speakers to work.  However, the next time the computer wakes up from sleep mode, I have the same connection problem described above.
    Has anyone else experiences these sorts of troubles?  I have seen some similar problems with older versions of all these applications and OS's -- and the solution there was to turn off ipV6 -- however, it doesn't look like that's an option now.  Is this an identified bug, and is there a fix on the way?  Is there anything I can do in the meantime?

    Well, after some experimentation and internet-lookin', I deduced that is possibly a wi-fi problem.  It seems that many people are having wi-fi problems since upgrading to Lion, and although I'm not connecting directly to my wireless network, it does form a pretty big chunk of my setup describe above.
    So I tried the fix outlined on OSX Daily here: http://osxdaily.com/2011/11/06/lion-wi-fi-problems-solution-mac/
    Essentially what it has you do is to create a new network location, name it, and then renew your DHCP lease.  This seems to have worked for the time being.

  • Swipe no longer works in Firefox since upgrading to Lion.

    I can no longer use the swipe gesture to move between pages on Firefox since upgrading to Lion.  I have tried it on both the Magic trackpad and the magic mouse. Anyone else haviong this issue?

    I, too, have that issue.  I've seen posts by folks who have changed the swipe gesture in system preferences.  But I can't get that to work.  I like the swipe gesture so much that I am using Safari for now.  Maybe a solution will be found in the future.  I hope so as I really prefer FF.

    If you want.
    or maybe install Snow Leopard using the disc it came on with my Mac and just set it up from a Time Machine Backup on my external hard drive (since it works under SL)?
    Did you install Lion on an empty partition, or did you upgrade Snow Leopard?  If you upgraded, I'd not recommend erasing it, since your backups are apparently gone.  It's doubtful Snow Leopard will recognize them. 
    It's not just backups on the drive either, there are other important things on there, so why won't they show?
    Mixing Time Machine backups and other data is not a good idea.  See #3 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  It sounds like the whole disk is corrupted.
    I just really don't understand how this happened. Could it not be an issue with WD because they haven't issued firmware to support Lion yet?
    If this is a simple external HD, connected by USB or FireWire, no, unless you installed some of WD's software on it.  That shouldn't prevent it from being seen at all, but anything's possible.
