Still can't get Epson driver working....any help?

Hi all, I've posted elsewhere and this site and am new to mac so bear with me. I really cant seem to get my epson 3800 (and my old 830U) to work, even after downloading what I thought were the most current drivers. Am I missing something... I've been at it for so many hours now, and would love to love my new mac after swapping (from a very functional) PC system. Forgive me if I'm asking already answered questions but I've followed all the advice I could find and still no luck. Al i get is a single, generic printer dialogue with no options worth speaking of... what happened to all my printer functions...I really need them for my work, and can't bear the thought of having to re-install my PC to get me through.
Any help much appreciated.
SN

Thanks for you help...sadly I have done this several times now with no luck. After deleting all drivers, I download the latest version direct from the Epson site (pro 3800), I then delete any printers in print menu, re-add the new printer driver, navigate to select the driver again. I check the details are correct (driver version 6.1).
Still no luck...what am i doing wrong? Is there something I am missing here?
I am just about at the end of my teather here...Is it possible to revert a previous version of OS x...I've not done this before but I just have to get working and I've been trying to solve this problem for nearly a day now...
Sorry, not anyone's fault.

  • No Password Keeper on 9100 - spent hours on forums, still can't get it to work! HELP!!!

    Guys, before you ask me to search the forums etc, believe me I've exhausted every possible avenue to try and find out where the hell my password keeper has gone to!
    So here we are, this is the situation;
    1. Have an old Pearl 8110
    2. Bought a new Pearl 9100
    3. Backed up the 8110
    4. Restored everything onto 9100
    5. Where the password keeper? It's not there!
    So what did I do next?
    1. Factory reset/wipe - still not there.
    2. Downloaded the OS6 from the website and reloaded that - still not there?
    I've used the application loader and all I see in the application manager is the email set up. All the forums are saying that I can select/deselect applications to load and unload, but I can't see the password keeper anywhere.
    Isn't there just a simple binary or something which I can download which I can then use the DM to upload onto the 9100?
    Surely someone out there knows what to do and get this working again?
    Anyone?
    Thanks in advance!

    Solved!

    then I think the OS you installed on your PC for 9100 is incomplete. I suggest you download it once more entirely,
    uninstall the previous one, install the new one and at one point while using loader.exe you will be able to select financial dictionaries as well as applications including the Password Keeper.
    In any case, you cannot use the ALX file for one specific model with another model.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The iPad 1 is only able to do basic AirPlay, many providers of programming have blocked their apps from working with AirPlay.

  • Still can't get airplay to work!!!!!

    Grrrrrrrrr. Still can't get airplay to work with either my iPad or my iPhone to my atv2. Everything has the latest firmware, including my airport extreme. Airplay is turned on in options on the atv2.
    Everything is on the same network. I even switched networks but still nothing.
    I do not see the blue icon that let's me stream to the tv.
    What the heck am I doing wrong?

    Hi,
    Your profile indicates you are running v10.5.7. If that's the case, you need to update your system software to v10.5.8 which is the minimum requirement for the iPad.
    Click the Apple () menu then click: Software Update...
    And make sure Bluetooth is not enabled on either the iPad or the iPhone. Tapping Settings / General / Bluetooth.

  • Itunes does not recognize my 6th generation ipod nano.  I installed, unintalled the progam...can't get it to work. any suggestions?

    can't get my itunes to recognize my 6th generation nano.  I have installed/uninstalled.  Restarted and I can't get it to work.  Any suggestions?

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • I have changed my password and still can't get homesharing to work. Get the message "Homesharing could not be activated because the account or password was incorrect. It's what I have used to sign in here!

    I  have changed my password and still can't get home sharing to work. Get the message "Home sharing could not be activated because the account or password was incorrect." It's what I have used to sign in here! Any help much appreciated.

    So I reset my Apple ID password. Which then stopped my MobileMe account from working. Hang on - these were 2 different accounts a while ago, with different passwords!!!
    So I have logged back in to MobileMe with my AppleID, and that's working again. After a short wait I can now create Home Sharing again.
    Folks, I think we have just had our Apple IDs merged with our MobileMe accounts!! With no consultation or warning.
    My guess is that this is the most seamless way for Apple to do it, as the vast majority of people use only one email address and one password for everything. Only those of us who had the same email adress but different a different passwords for MobileMe and Apple ID will have noticed. Annoying for us few, but a clever strategy on Apple's part, becasue we have been driven to fix the issue ourselves by chaning the password, and in doing so we have realised that our mobileme account is now the same thing as our Apple ID.

  • Tried both ways in the Wiki, still can't get network printing work

    Hi,
    I have tried both the client and server ways following the Wiki, still could not get network printing work.
    For the first way, I tried to put either the host name or the ip address (starting with 192) of the remote printer into /etc/cups/client.conf. But both Okular and Evince failed to see the printer in the dialog.
    For the second way, with cups-browsed running, it only managed to discover printers in my local network (ip starting with 137) which I have no access. I tried to manually add the printer using its ip, but it still did not work.
    What can I do? I have spent hours trying to work it out but failed. I would appreciate a lot your help. Thanks.

  • I can't get CS6 to recognize R3D files. I put the plugin and the server files in the proper spot and I used 64 not 32 like it said. I still can't get it to work

    The only thing to do to get the R3D files working is download a plugin pack with 2 files in it. one goes in your plugin folder the other in some other folder. I found both original files and replaced them with the new ones. I have rebooted twice... nothing. it won't recognize R3D files. The Camera is a Red brand Epic Dragon and it puts our R3D files. R3D's are easily manipulated in Redcine, but I can't add my .mov files on it so I need to be able to work with these files in PP.

    I'm sad now
    Good thing I have a PC with 32-bit windows!
    Now, I can only assume apple is working on a 64-bit
    fix? I suppose that info/ETA is on the itunes page,
    I'll go take a look.
    Who knows what Apple plans are? I do know that they do not discuss upcoming releases of anything until its available.

  • Can not get keyboard to work , any answers?

    I am unable to get my keyboard to work, any answers on what I need to do?

    Try Resetting the SMC.
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    But if the keyboard has failed you won't be able to do that. In that case you need to take the system to Apple to be diagnosed as to what the problem really is and get an estimate on the cost of repairs if you are out of Warranty.
