The printer doesn´t show up at all

My problem: I have tried to install my HP photosmart 8050 printer on my new IMAC version 10.9.4 but it doesn´t show up anywhere on the mac. Not in the menu for softwareupdate or in the map for printers. Its usb connected.  I´ve have also tried with the bluetooth function but with no result. What can i do? I have been to the HP support site and found the instructions there and downloaded the relevant driver, but when the printer doesn`t show up its a dead end street:^) Kind regards MummySound

  • I need to print and the printer doesn't show

    my printer does not show up in the bluetooth sectino it is due tomorrow and the thing i need to print cant be saved.

    I suggest you reset the SMC (with the printer off). Then restart and plug the printer in. It should be "found."

    Whatever cannot be saved should be cut/pasted and then E-mailed to yourself.

  • I can't open my iPod library in iTunes, the app doesn't show the device at all, no error message, nothing, but windows 8 opens it like it would a flash drive. It has worked for me before just fine and both have the most updated software versions.

  • How can I import pictures from my iphone to PC which I imported to the iphone from another PC? The folder doesn't show on my computer. I see all other pictures I took with the phone but not the imported folder.

    Photos that were synced from a computer won't show for copying to a computer. If you want to copy them back then you will need a third-party app on your phone such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer (e.g. their dimensions might be different and their colours may look a bit different).

  • When I plug my iPhone into my computer it doesn't show up at all. Not on the computer or iTunes nor does it charge when plugged into the computer. It charges just fine when it's plugged into the wall .

    When I plug my phone into the computer nothing happens. The phone doesn't respond the computer doesn't show anything and ITunes doesn't show anything!

    I would not worry too much about the charging aspect of the computer connection for now.  I did notice that the last time I connected my iPhone to my computer the iTunes had changed and the only way I could determine that my iPhone was connected was by noticing a box at the upper right on the computer screen vs. the older graphical interface which showed the connected iPhone in a column on the left of screen.  My iPhone did not turn on and did not charge.  However the iPhone was connected and I could in-fact select Sync from one of the iTunes pull-down menus.  Again, for quite some time I though my iPhone was not triggering the computer at all when I connected it.  I use an iMac. 

  • So i connected my ipod shuffle to my apple computer and the status light on my ipod shuffle shows that it is charging but when i look for it on the pc dock or in itunes it doesn't show it at all.... so what do I do???

    If you have not already, I would shut down (power off) your computer.  Do this to Reset your shuffle

    Start up computer.  Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle.
    If you have added a new USB device recently (since the last time it worked properly), you may want to try disconnecting it to see if that makes any difference.

  • I have mac os x 10.6.8. The system preferences doesn't show java at all. How can I install java please?

    Hi! 
    I have mac os x 10.6.8. The system preferences doesn't show java at all. How can I install java please?

    Don't change your story now. You did not say through Apple, you first gave a link to this site,
    http://www.java.com/en/download/apple.jsp
    You said, "Go there and download the latest version of Java"
    that plainly says,
    "Mac OS X Version 10.6 and below
    Use Software Update available on the Apple menu to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java 6 for your Mac."
    This corroborates me saying that Java for Mac OS 10.6 is done through Software Update, no where else.
    If any Mac OS 10.6 user does not have Java on their Mac, they get it from Apple just as the link you provided shows it is from Apple. Not Oracle. You have provided the evidence that plainly contradicts yourself.
    This is your second link that is to Apple.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1573
    Just to go over this again. Software Update not only updates Java to the latest, but if Java does not exist at all, SU will install it from scratch. And in doing so will be the latest version.
    Providing a link to Oracle's site is useless information that does not get Java installed on a Mac running 10.6.

  • When i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    when i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • When I print a document with Arabic script in In Design the characters appear in an inverted form, in the opposite direction, while the printer doesn't do this with other software such as Word

    When I print a document with Arabic script in In Design the characters appear in an inverted form, in the opposite direction, while the printer doesn't do this with other software such as Word

    (The small field at the top of questions is to type just a title; the large field is to type your full question in, along with anything else that may help us help you.)
    When you say "print", do you mean the text is correct in your InDesign file? If you export the document to a PDF, is it still correct? Final test: if you print the PDF to your printer (making sure you use the same driver and setting), is it wrong? Then it's your printer driver, trying to be smart when it should not. Locate a Settings dialog where you can switch off options such as this one. Were I a betting person, I'd tell you to look for something called "Auto-correct mirrored documents".

  • When i click on a photo to edit, the photo doesn't show up and the area where the photo should show up is black.  Why?

    When i click on a photo to edit, the photo doesn't show up and the area where the photo should show up is black.  Why?  I can edit some photos, whereas others I can not.

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • WiFi ON/OFF button Doen't Work, the IPod doesn't show the on/off button in the Settings- General - WiFi

    After My IPod Touch 4th Geneartion was broken I had to fix the screen, which cost me a lot, after a perfect restore through the ITunes I went to connect to my IPod to the WiFi network then the WiFi ON/OFF button Doen't Work, the IPod doesn't show the on/off button in the Settings-> General -> WiFi.
    And another problem I encountered during this operation was that the Games I downloaded through the ITunes doesn't work, when I click on the icon ( Game Icon) it starts an then closes in a few seconds

    See:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

  • I have connected a new (set up for mac) seagate external HD and although file sharing is turned on the HD doesn't show up on any of the other computers on our network??????  Please help!!!!!

    I have connected a new (set up for mac) seagate external HD and although file sharing is turned on the HD doesn't show up on any of the other computers on our network??????  Please help!!!!!

    If the HD is setup for Mac and plugged into the AE.. with file sharing on, it should work.
    Try manually mounting the disk.
    In finder use go, connect to server, and type in AFP://AEName or AFP://AEIPaddress.. where you replace what I wrote with the actual name or actual IP.
    Later versions of Mac OS.. like ML for some strange reason have their preferences set by default to not show network drives.. change finder preference to see everything.

  • When I perform a split audio edit, the timeline doesn't show it when the clips are collapsed!

    Especially the clip whose audio is 'covering' another... the timeline doesn't show it's audio as extending, and it would appear only that the clip for which audio has been shortened, is still there, or at "0"... what gives? If you uncollapse the audio, or detach it, you do, once again, see the split audio.
    Thanks

    Like Zambonisurfer suggested, this is so by design.
