Trouble connecting to Apple's book and print service

Does anyone know why I can't connect to the printing service. When I'm ready to print my book thru Apple's service I hit the BUY BOOK... key at the botton left and all I see is the blue candy swirl line. I don't even get into the first window of the service where you choose cover colors. I've let the blue swirl run for a long time before I cancel but nothing happens.

Just a thought but could the problem be with your firewall ?
Whenever I've had problems with PC applications connecting to remote servers it's usually turned out to be the firewall blocking the port in use.

I will be using a HDMI cable to connect an Apple TV box and a Comcast cable TV box to my TV. My TV has only one HDMI port.

I will be using a HDMI cable to connect an Apple TV box and a Comcast cable TV box to my TV. My TV has only one HDMI port.
To do this I will need a 2x1 HDMI splitter or a 2x1 HDMI auto switch (preferred).
?Is there any Apple TV HDMI port voltage?
When using a HDMI auto switch to connect two devices to a HDMI TV, the
Auto switch cable box only works for components that do not output continuous voltage over HDMI port when turned off.
Do you know of any other solutions? Componets? Actual expierances?

Cable : HDMI switches expand the number of available HDMI ports on a high definition television allowing connection of cable boxes, Blu-ray players, and game consoles. A side benefit is that cable clutter is also eliminated by running a single HDMI cable to your HDTV from a switch and relocating the HDMI ports to a concealed location. The problem with most HDMI switches is that you have to either get up to push a button, or hunt for the remote control, to switch sources. The true mark of any great switching component is an ability to perform its function and remain transparent in its operation. This automatic HDMI switch is a plug-and-play away from offering everything you are looking for in an HDMI switch. Select a single output from up to three devices for signal delivery to your HDTV. Smart operation provides complete control for connect-and-forget operation. Powering on a device gives it output priority over the other devices. By powering down the device in use, output priority is returned to the last powered on device. Note: Auto switch function only works for components that do not output continuous voltage over HDMI port when turned off.
Here is a typical HDMI 3-in 1-Out HDMI Auto Switch

Thanks for any help. Sincerely,

Hi Erico,
I tried what you said again but without success. I even updated the driver so that that audio driver is the same as the graphics driver i.e.. NVIDIA but this has not helped either:
Do you have any other ideas?
Many many thanks,

How to sync up apple contact book and exchange contacts

I have a bunch of contacts in my Apple Contact book but am using Outlook for Mac 2011 for email, contact management, and calendar. I have read that you have to sync your Apple contact book to your exchange account rather than directly to the Outlook for Mac 2011 programs so you don't create duplicates (contacts coming from the Apple address book AND the Exchange server). However, I can't find anything that tells me how to sync the Apple Contacts with my Exchange account. I figure at that point once synced, my exchange account will push the new contacts from the Apple Contact book back into Outlook for Mac 2011 making everything whole.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

itsamacthing,
Thanks for the quick response. I do have the exchange service added and am only bringing the contacts down from the exchange side into the Contacts portion (not syncing mail, calendar, etc). It has seemed to create two different "sections' in the Apple Contacts Address book (Please see screenshot). I was hoping to somehow merge/sync these two so I am always working out of one directory. When I create a contact in my Outlook for Mac 2011 it dumps it in the "Exchange" section and up to my Exchange server. However, when I create one on my iphone and sync the phone with this system via usb cable, it puts all new contacts created in the "On My Mac" section thus not moving it to my Exchange or Outlook for Mac 2011 causing new contacts to only sync with different sections based on where they were created.
(As a side note, I have to sync via the firewire cable due to having over 10,000 contacts. There was an issue with the previous release of IOS that caused massive problems with syncing over the air with that many contacts. I've never fully recovered and have not had the hard to do over the air syncing again, hence the tethered sync).
If there is anything I can do to get this rolled into one Address book that syncs from phone all the way through to Exchange server, I would appreciate any additional direction. I've also included a second screen shot to show the difference between the Exchange contacts total (10,660) and the All on my Mac contacts total (10,774). Ideally they would both say 10,774.
Thank you again.

I have an Apple Air Book and I am very satisfied with it except there are video that I cannot see. The reason is that Quick Time will not support the video. What can I do to be able to get these videos?

I have an Apple Air Book and I am very satisfied with it except there are video that I cannot see. The reason is that Quick Time will not support the video. What can I do to be able to get these videos? I have all ready download Adobe Flash Player and installed it but it has not effect.

Get Flip4Mac (for Windows Media videos):

And Perian for everything else:

You should be able to play most videos with QuickTime player once both are installed.

What does this mean "We apologize for the inconvenience, but the ability to order books and prints is no longer supported in iPhoto 5. Please upgrade to a newer version of iPhoto to order these products.

what does this mean "We apologize for the inconvenience, but the ability to order books and prints is no longer supported in iPhoto 5. Please upgrade to a newer version of iPhoto to order these products." I want to buy a photo book and that message keeps popping up.

TD, LN - You guys make great points and I will take you at your word. Normally, I would not hesitate to update. I have a lot at stake here with a large vacation coming up with a great many new pictures anticipated. I don't know enough to understand what is meant by "verifying my library." Please give me some insight there and I will start the upgrade process tonight! Seriously, I have wanted to do this for some time, but have been scared away by reading too many situations on these forums.
TD - you have a good sense of humor. I know all versions eventually need to be left to die away. Support is not eternal. I am sure I missed the announcement that certain versions of iPhoto would no longer offer the ability to conveniently make cards, calendars, books, etc. Like the original poster, I was surprised to learn my version did not offer that functionality only by requesting it and getting denied. Sort of frosted me at the time, as you can tell by my original reply here.
If anyone can help me with the "verifying" question, I'll get off of here and let the original poster have his thread back!

I am trying to connect my ipad to my new hp photosmart printer 6520e The ipad is saying no air printers found . The printer is already connected to my mac book and my desktop wirelessly. What do I need to do ? Please help

I can't connect my ipad to the wireless printer hp photosmart 6520e . Ipad is stating no air printers found. My MacBook and desktop are connected and working well.

S the printer connected to the same Wifi network as the iPad? If so, is it wirelessly connected to it?
That particular pinter model does appear on Apple's list of compatible printers.

You might want to try to reboot the router and try again as a first step.

Re: Apple address book application PRINT PROBLEM

When printing a hard copy of my address book, I encounter these problems...
1, in any print format I use, whether compact or indexed, whether I choose landscape or portrait, some info for the last contact in a column will "wrap" up to the next column with the 1st line cut off at the top! The card name in the first column prints just fine, but one column over doesn't start with a card name and the info that starts to print there is only half a line, cut off at the top!
2, the "Notes" field won't print. I cannot find any print field option to show the notes I have made. I cannot find any way to add a "notes" field in the card template. I would change a field to a custom name, but then the field itself doesn't accommodate what I need to record there.
3. I have tried to change the font size in the print options, but the font size will not change to a larger type when I print.
Can anyone help with a Fix for these issues? Or can anyone suggest a purchased Apple application that I could export my address file to and print with more options than the standard Apple address book application?

Hi,
have a look at Pacifist http://www.charlessoft.com/
It should do the trick.

Having trouble connecting my ipod to iTunes and mac

Today my ipod decided to stop working altogether and not play anything. Literally, I was listening to a song and the next song never played. Couldn't figure out why, so I came on here and tried the 5 R's.
I want to restore my ipod (because obviously nothing else I did, worked), but I can't even connect it to my MacBook Pro, let alone, see it in itunes. I just want to see of restoring it might actually fix it before I do anything involving the apple store.
There's all sorts of threads about having troubles connecting ipods to PC's, but nothing I could find about connecting them to Macs.
I know for sure the USB wire is fine. I downloaded the new version of itunes and blah blah blah...it's definitely all the ipod, but I can't seem to come up with any other solution than to go to an apple store.
I only bought this within the last year and just recently started using it on a regular basis.
If anyone would like to shed some light on what might've happened, please let me know! I'd be so grateful! Thanks!

Try putting the iPod into Disk Mode
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
If that works, connect it to the Mac. See if it is now recognized by the Mac and iTunes. If it is, use Restore to erase the iPod and initialize its software.

Wireless connection lost between my router and printer (hp officejet 4620)

My hp officejet 4620 printer has been working fine but now the wireless connection has been lost and I can't get the wireless connection back. The blue light for the wifi flashes blue. I can't get the connection back between the router and the printer because my wifi is actually working fine with my laptop. Any suggestions about what i can do to get the connection back so I can print again?
Is it something I need to do on the printer screen or laptop to fix the problem?

Have you powered off everything and power up again? Power off printer and router. Power on router and wait 2 mins. Power up printer and see if it connects to your SSID.
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.
If my post resolved your problem, please mark it as an Accepted Solution ...

Lenovo Thinkvantage Access Connections prevents Microsoft File and Printer Sharing

We have several Think pad laptops deployed in our company, including G41, T61, and T500 models. We are using Numara's Track It software to inventory our workstations and laptops. The auditing process needs to have Microsoft File and Printer Sharing turned on in order to work. We have enabled a group policy to set this to on by default. However, the Thinkavntage Access connections manager for the LAN connection overrides the GP and turns off the File and Printer Sharing by default. What's worse, with it off, we can't remotely manage the machine's services or even access the registry. We know that his is the issue, because reconfiguring the access connections manager to allow the file and printer sharing will allow all of our remote administration tools to work, insluding the inventory audit.
Does anyone know how to disable the access connection manager from running remotely? or does anyone know how to change the settings remotely to all for the microsoft file and printer sharing to be enabled by default. I would hate to have to visit each user individually just to turn off a setting.
anyone else run into headaches because of this "security feature"?
Jason

1.Find snetcfg.exe on internet
2.Create batch who runs snetcfg with this commnads from network locations
(this setting enable File and Printer Sharing)
snetcfg -u MS_Server
snetcfg -c s -i MS_Server
3. Deploy and run batch on laptops (GPO)
4. Deploy new AC profiles settings (.loa)
done

I plan on calling them tonight, as I am sure they want me to be at the same location where the equipment is located. Someone told me that tech support personnel are available in "large" numbers only before 9 PM Eastern, with an average wait of 2 minutes.

Remote branch guest and Print services

We are deploying guest internet services in our remote branches, using a setup of WLC4402 and LAPs.
These guests require print services at the remote branch.
The DMZ will not be routed to the remote branches, and we prefer if the remote branch printer is not given a
permanent wireless guest account.
Is there a solution whereby we can connect the printer to these wireless guests.

Mysterious connections to Apple from "locationd" iPhone related service?

I use Little Snitch to monitor network activity on my computer. I've noticed that a service named "locationd" occasionally tries to connect to "iphone-wu.apple.com" at seemingly random times. Interestingly, these connections only seem to happen when my iPhone is not connected to my computer.
I'm running Snow Leopard on a 13" MBP. I have iTunes 9.0.2(25). I have an iPhone 3G and I have a MobleMe account that I pretty much only use for syncing my contact information (I don't use it for email).
I'm curious if anyone else has noticed this behavior and knows what it might be.

When you installed Snow Leopard, you agreed to send this data:

Further, the EULA tells you how to disable this. No one is spying on anyone. If you want things like location services to work fast & accurate data like this is a necessary part of the equation.
