Since upgrading to OS X yosemite my printer will not work.

Since upgrading to OS X Yosemite my printer will not work.

I found the solution in another thread. Thanks to frankglyn who posted it there.
I've just copied it here, as this seems to be the most active thread on this subject.
The solution (steps A to C) worked fine for me and others and should work for you as well, until Kodak will come with an updated driver. Then, you can revert the changes as also described below (steps 1 to 7)
A) in Spotlight Type Terminal and then press enter.
This should bring up the terminal window/program.
B) In the Terminal type sudo sh -c 'echo "Sandboxing Relaxed" >> /etc/cups/cups-files.conf'
It will ask for your password.
C) After that type following: sudo launchctl stop org.cups.cupsd
After that if you are lucky the printer driver should start to work. (which it did in my case)
I hope this works out for you, if not then you can do following to revert the changes:
In case you want/have to revert the changes:
1) Open the terminal as usual (Spotlight type Terminal hit enter and wait for the terminal window to appear)
2) then type: cd /etc/cups
3) then type: sudo nano cups-files.conf
4) 'type in your password'
This brings up a command line editor which you can use to edit the file
5) Remove the last line which says Sandboxing Relaxed
6) press 'ctrl x'
And then confirm with y when being asked if you want to save the changes
7) after that type sudo launchctl start org.cups.cupsd

Since upgrading to itunes 12, my Itunes match will not work.

It shows it sending data to match, then when it states it is getting the macth results,(second step) it just hangs. I let it run over 8 hours.
I cannot get my new songs to the cloud so I can use them on my Iphone.

Hi
Try clicking on stop match. Next, go to menu > store > select update iTunes match. If this does not solve problem, hold option key whilst turning off match. Close iTunes. Reopen iTunes and turn on iTunes match, select add this computer. See if process completes.

Since upgrading to Mavericks, my Canon MP980 printer no longer works. I've tried deleting the printer and adding it again. the process ends with my mac saying the software is not currently available from the software update server.

Since upgrading to Mavericks, my Canon MP980 printer no longer works. I've tried deleting the printer and adding it again. I've downloaded the driver software from Canon. My Mac dropbox tells me "the selected printer software is available from Apple", but when I click to download it, the process ends with my mac saying the software is not currently available from the software update server.

Open Finder and click on Go > Go to Folder. Then type
/Library/Printers/Canon
and press Enter. This will show the BJPrinter and iJScanner folders. You could try moving or trashing this folder and then installing the driver that you downloaded from Canon again.

Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server.

Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server. I have to click the link several time before it will load and sometimes when they do load it does not show the page right. It is like the HTML is messed up or something. I have tried everything I can think of. I started in safe mode, still did it., I removed add-ons, still did it., I reset Firefox and still did it., I completely uninstalled Firefox and re-installed Firefox and it still does it. I have tried Malware Bytes Anti-Malware scans and Avast boot-time scans and found no malware or viruses. I have found that those websites open the first time with no problems on my IE9 and they used to do so in Firefox 26.0. I'm at my wit's end. The website links are in my bookmarks and are used all the time so they are trusted and my avast is set to allow them. They range from news websites to gun websites and everything I have read says that Mozilla does not filter those unless something has changed recently.

Try this as a first step; 
Clear the Cache '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"''''' 
and 
Remove Cookies '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"''''' 
If there is still a problem,
'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
While you are in safe mode;
'''''Firefox Options > Advanced > General'''''. Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.

I upgraded from leopard to lion and my epson printer will not work. I get a communication error

I upgraded from leopard to lion and my Epson printer will not work. I get a error message comunication error. What can Ido to fix this I bought a new USB cord and it did no good.

I suddenly had the same thing happen. I've had my new iMac for 3 months and at first my Epson Artisan 50 worked okay then yesterday I started getting the same error message other people on this support site have gotten. I tried ALL the advice given (deleating the Epson files from the library folder, etc. reinstalling older software) and nothing worked. With the newest iMac (and operating system) you cannot pick and choose which version of Epson software you want. You must use the 10.8 version or it simply will not open when you've downloaded it. Finally I found the comment above by den.thed and tried the OS X Mountain Lion: Reset the printing system suggested. As much as I hated to lose all my printing presets that took a lot of expiermentation to set up, I was desperate. I tried it and it worked. Now I just have to consult my old computer and try to recreate all my printing set ups. So to others with Epson / Apple 10.8 issues this may help when everything else fails. Thanks den.thed for your advice.

Since upgrading iPhone 4S to new OS it has not worked. Now over 10 days with no phone, talked to Apple Care in Colorado and Australia over 10 hrs on phone 7 consultants. All that has to happen is for someone at Apple Care to reset a password? Help

The phone will not recognise Apple if passwords or secret questions

Printer will not work after update to Mavericks

I have a macbook pro and an HP7280 printer connected wirelessly. After upgrading to Mavericks the printer will not work. The first time I used it the system upgraded automatically (I forget what it said but it just went ahead and did some upgrading) When I clicked on something to print it did recognized the printer but just scrolled and scrolled and never printed. So I deleted the printer and reset the system and then added the printer back on - same thing. Any ideas??

It means there is no issue with the driver you are using and with it working correctly on Mavericks. So you have a network issue with the printer queue you are using. Normally a reset of the printing system and re-adding the printer would be enough to get things working again. But since you have done this and your issue is not resolved, there must be some other gremlins in the system.
With the HP connected to the network, if you know its IP address you can enter this as a URL into a web browser. This should result in you connecting to the internal web page of the HP. Does this work?

HP-2840 needs new drum (Q3964A) and I am told my printer will not work when I install a new drum

My HP2840 laser jet All-InOne has been telling me for 6 months that I need a new drum. I was waiting until I saw an issue with my print quality (which I never had a problem) and now my printer will not work unless I replace the drum.
A friend told me that even after installing a new OEM drum, that my printer will still not work unless I call HP and pay for them to tell me how to make it work.
Is that true?
I need help fast cause now my wife is really angry that I "broke" the printer!
Thanks in advance!

Printer will not work: error code 0xc19a0022

Printer will not work: error code 0xc19a0022

Hello citizenED,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are getting the error code " 0xc19a0022 " .
I do have a few steps that we can try.
First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
I have also located a document that deals with a 'Problem with Printhead,' 'Printer Failure,' 'Ink System Failure,' or a '0x...' or a 'C2...' Error ...
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
Thanks for your time.
Cheers,

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion 'Add Bookmark Here' does not work in Safari

Hi, since upgrading from Lion to Mountain Lion, Safari does not add bookmarks to a folder on the Bookmarks Bar using the Add Bookmark Here sub menu item.
The dialogue for adding the name of the Bookmark appears but I have to click OK twice and the bookmark does not save.
Does anyone have any suggestions for fixing this bug? Thanks...

Thanks mejudy that worked! Much appreciated
I also tried removing the Bookmarks.plist file from the Safari library and restarting Safari. I then quit Safari, copied the file back and now the Add Bookmark here sub menu has gone altogether.
Is that how its meant to be in Mountain Lion?

HP Photosmart C6180 All-in-One printer will not work

Printer worked one day and the next day it did not and now will not turn on. I did not turn it off. It went off all by itself. Only 3 years old and not over used. Have checked outlet and power cable. Green LED light comes on when connected to outlet but as soon as I connect it to the printer, the light goes out and the printer will not turn on. Is it dead?

I have the exact same problem
Where do we find a solution

Help, Upgraded to Yosemite and now my HP Laser jet 1320 printer will not work!

Two days ago I upgraded to Yosemite on my Imac. Now my HP 1320 Laser jet will not print at all!!! I need a printer for my eBay business ASAP and this is not good. The printer is a driver version 19.8 Is it compatible with the new program? I am so frustrated.

Hello k1watt,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I see that you're unable to print to your HP LaserJet 1320 series after upgrading to Yosemite on your Mac. I defintely understand how frustrating this is, especially since printing is vital to your business. The printer driver version 19.8 is the most current version available. To troubleshoot the issue however where you're unable to print, please follow the steps in the article below.
USB printers and Bonjour-enabled network printers
Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel.Note:If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
UseSoftware Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Deletethe affected printer, thenaddthe printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Resetthe printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists,resetthe printing system again. Download and installyour printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.

Kodak printer will not work after upgrading to Yosemite.. Please Help

I have uninstalled and re installed my kodak 5250 more than once and it still does not work. I have carried out a clean install of my Yosemite OS and still no joy. How do i fix this?

I've got the 7250 as well -- same exact issue. I sent an e-mail to Kodak support on Friday last week -- haven't heard anything, but they did ask for 2 business days time to respond.
I've been running the Yosemite Beta on one of my machines for a few months now and my printer stopped working on that one after the upgrade. I kept Mavericks on my other Mac until this weekend, and printing still worked from that machine until I upgraded to Yosemite over the weekend.
I've got Linux and Windows virtual machines that can print to the ESP 7250, so I can still print, albeit with the hassle of firing up a VM and printing from there... I sure hope Kodak responds! I offered to help them test any beta-quality drivers they may have, so -- we'll see what they say!
I've been planning to ditch the printer and get a new one, but I'd rather not have to do it right this minute just for a driver issue :-/
