Updated driver will not enable HP Photosmart 5524 to scan wirelessly

I have been printing & scanning wirelessly with my HP Photosmart 5524 device since purchase.  I updated the driver this morning as part of a refresh on my mac laptop to speed up its performance.  I am using Mac OSX 10.6.8.  
I am now unable to scan using my wifi network direct from the HP device.  I have uninstalled & reintalled the new driver twice.  Restarted my router, laptop & HP device.  
As stated the driver is now installed twice - one to be used with USB wire & one on wifi.  The scanner & print options are visible for the USB driver but print is the only option for the wifi driver.  It is not convenient to have my laptop  constantly near the scanner so I really need to get the wifi scan option working again.
I tested the HP Web Service & can scan perfectly fine on the network that way.  Its ONLY the new driver that will not show a scan option.
PLEASE HELP!
Thank you.

    I recently updated my 20-inch, Mid 2007 iMac with the latest OS 10.8.5 now my external hard drives will not show up. They show up when I boot them up on a machine running and earlier OS. Is there a fix for this?

    Can you see them in Disk Utility?
    If so, can you select and Mount them?
    If not, disconnect them, reset the iMac's SMC and then reconnect them.

    5. Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    If you still can not see them, connect them back up to the iMac running the older OS, open Disk Utility and look to see how they are partitioned and formatted.

  • Updated my HP Laptop to Windows 8 and now DVD driver will not work. Help!

    I have a Hp Pavilion dv-7013cl Entertainment PC and everything was working perfectly. I updated to Windows 8 about a month ago and had some problems. I then did a clean install of Windows 8 and now all the bugs are fixed except my DVD drive will not work. 
    I insert a DVD or CD and nothing happens. I go to My Computer and click on it and it just ejects the DVD. I don't know what to do and need my DVD drive.
    Also, I tried to go to device manager and reinstall the driver but that didn't help.

  • After doing a widows update itunes will not work at all

    after doing a widows update itunes will not work at all

    hiya!
    I get the itunes has encounterd a problem and needs to close, sorry for the inconvenience error, no specific error number. I do not have QT installed,
    not having QT installed is what will be causing your itunes error message at the moment. let's try a careful standalone QT 7.1 install.
    download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
    Quicktime 7.1 Standalone Installer
    if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
    (if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
    love, b

  • DVD drive will not read DVD-Roms

    I recently tried to reinstall a game that I had played previously, only to find that my drive will not read it. I can hear the disk spinning, but my computer will not recognize that there is a disk in the drive. I tried some of my other games and I noticed that all of the older games, that ran on CD-Rom, had no trouble installing, while the ones that ran on DVD-Rom never showed up in the drive.
    This is strange because I have installed all of these DVD-Rom games on my laptop before with no problem. I've tried doing simple fixes, like updating everything and uninstalling then reinstalling the drivers, but nothing helps. 

    Hi,
    If it worked before then try few System Restore points and check. Could have happened due to some update.
    Also provide the Product number of your notebook if restore doesnt help.
    Note:
    If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem

  • External hard drive will not eject

    Since upgrading to ML my small "my passport" hard drive will not eject. First it gives me the message "the disk couldnt be ejected because Safari is using it and to close Safari and try again". (not sure why safari would be using it..) When I close safari then I get the message " the disk couldnt be eject because another program is using it"
    My only option is to force eject each time.
    Any suggestions?

  • My WD 2tb external hard drive will not unmount from my MacBook Pro.

    My WD 2tb external hard drive will not unmount from my MacBook Pro. It no longer even shows up in finder, however it does show up in Disk Utility. I have tired so many of the suggestions on the internet all to a fail.
    I keep getting the message to be sure that all applications are closed before ejecting the drive. I have no clue how to tell which appliactions are using the external drive to shut them off. I turned off Time Machiene to be safe. 
    I don't need anything on the external drive, I am just trying to erase it, save my current info, and migrate it to my new MacBook Pro.
    I have been about four days now with this issue all over the internet, in this community, and watching videos on everything and nothing about this topic to a fail.
    I think I am doomed and have lossed this external drive because of some wierd application that will NEVER close on my hard drive for it to disconnect correctly. It's annoying.
    Does anyone have a solution?

    Have you trie using another USB port? Can you test the USB ports with other USB devices to assure they are working? You may want to reinstall OS X in case there has been a driver glitch.
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • After loading the latest Aperture 3 update, aperture will not load and it appears to have corrupted 10.6.  10.6.7 now appears to be missing from the computer and my administrator status has changed to standard.

    After loading the latest Aperture 3 update, aperture will not load and it appears to have corrupted 10.6.7. and now appears to be missing from the computer and my administrator status has changed to standard.  Update Software says I need to do update to 10.6.7 which I can't do because administrator privileges are gone.   I didn't back-up with Time Machine ,BAD, but I have all files backed-up on another hard drive.  Should I just reformat and start over?  Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

    PROBLEM SOLVED! For me at least!
    Apple Support gave me the clue - I had run Migration Assistant, and it had obligingly replaced a system file (/Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B/PluginManager) with the equivalent from my old system.
    I reinstalled 10.6.7 using the DVD supplied and all is well.
    The moral is - don't use Migration Assistant.
    Along the way Apple Support provided me with a link to download Combo update 10.6.7: this could not be installed on my iMac.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why my dvd drive will not read or run any install software,

    will the drive read cds? If the ODD will read the cds then it maybe a update will fix it. If it won't read those too, you may need to get a new ODD (dvd drive). 

  • My Hybrid 1TB Seagate Hard Drive will not work in my data doubler caddy installed in the optical bay

    My Hybrid 1TB Seagate Hard Drive will not work in my data doubler caddy installed in the optical bay of my MacBook Pro

    Thanks for all the advice. It looks like I have finally got my MBP working again (after two weeks of pain).
    The WD HD works fine internally, but restoring from TM introduced a whole load more of issues/incompatabilities (see above). Eventually the only thing left was to re-build rather than restore:
    i) mount the WD disk internally and install Snow Lepoard from the orginial installation disks
    ii) get online, and after much trying download Lion (previously purchased). Perfrom all update.
    iii) Connect my Time Capsule, identify my data, photo and music files and then copy them accross by hand
    iv) install all the other applications (e.g. MS Office:mac, etc) from scratch.
    This exercise has shown me that even though tools and procedures exist to address separate issues, when the complexity of inter-dependence is introduced there are a raft of problems that crop up.
    Now I am back in business I will be using TM and CCC to take full and regular copies. I did this previously, which has saved me from losing my data and cherished pictures, but hopefully next time (and I'm sure there will be a next time) the recovery will be less infuriating.
    BTW I got a refund on the Seagate Momentus XT. They guy in the shop said it wasn't the first time he'd heard of this issue with MBPs. Great.

  • External drives will not mount if the wi-fi is on!

    I have had no replies where I had previously posted so I thought I would try here as I think that it is mainly an Airport problem.
    My problem is this. I have a Macbook that I use at home no problem. I teach at a college where there is are two wi-fi connections that my Macbook automatically connects to depending on where I am in the department. Recently almost everything I try and do causes the spinning beachball for 10 minutes or much more at a time. Additionally, I have discovered that any external drives will not mount on my laptop, unless I switch the wi-fi off! No-one else is having any problems at all.
    One of the wi-fi connections is an Airport Extreme. Each morning my laptop gets the message that there is a problem and I need to update the firmware to 7.5.2. (I originally set the Airport up through my laptop) I am very wary of doing this as everything is working fine for the other 20+ laptops in the department and I have read lots of reports of problems with this update.
    I suppose my questions are these - 1 Does anyone have any idea what is going on with my laptop? 2 What should I try doing to solve this issue?
    I have searched the net and cannot seem to find any reference to this problem anywhere else. Any ideas at all why this might be happening will be much appreciated.

    It was not until Mac OS X 10.6.4, not possible to run on a 10.2 machine, that ExFat was supported.
    Many older Macs also will not recognize GUID formatted partitions made to boot Intel Macs either.
    10.2.3 is the first system to support Apple Partition Map HFS Extended (Jornalled).
    There may be NTFS support based on my tip here:

    Hi there, two other things you could try (if not already attempted) are:
    Check to ensure that you have the latest firmware for your router – review your router documentation/help (or the router manufacturer’s web site) for information on how to check for and install firmware updates. 
    Restore factory defaults - The factory default option is usually found in the Setup>Tools menu on your printer.   Do the following on your device:
    Remove/Disable Web Services 
    Restore factory defaults/settings (depending on the printer this is found under the Setup>Tools menu, or the Setup>Web Services menus, but varies by printer) 
    If prompted, re-do initial setup of your device and add it to your network
    Re-enable Web Services 
    Once the Web Services information sheet is printed, use the printer claiming code to add your printer to your account on ePrintCenter

  • Firewire drive will not mount on PowerBook

    Firewire drive will not mount on PowerBooks

    Hi All,
    A friend of mine has a Titanium Powerbook G4 500's with 640mb ram and OS 10.2. She has purchased a Fantom Drive 120gb Firewire drive to back up her work. The drive will not mount on her machine. It will mount on my G5 running 10.3.9. I went to the Fantom Site, and all I could find was a link to Apple's site on Tiger.
    She bought a set of Panther disks and wanted to back up all of her stuff before the upgrade.
    Any help would be appreciated,
    David

    Thought you could use this info about getting FireWire to work!
    First, you should always Repair Permissions in Disk Utility before and after any update; I would do that now. If you installed your update with FireWire plugged in, your Mac may not recognize it anymore.
    Try resetting your FireWire ports by disconnecting all FW devices, shut down your Mac and unplug it from AC power (wall socket) for 30 minutes. plug it back in and try FW.
    If that did'nt work, download the combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try. Hers should be the 10.2.8 Combo update. Others reading, download the Combo that applies to your system.
    If that still did'nt get it Zap the PRAM. While restarting Mac hold down the following key combo Command-Option-P-R. Keep holding those keys down till you hear the second start-up chime, then release.
    For those of you with Macs that are not PowerBooks or iBooks, a bad internal battery can cause FireWire to not be recognized, so make sure it's good!
    Good Luck!
    Cheers!

  • CD/ Blu-ray Drive Will Not Open/ Function Correctly

    My CD/ Blu-ray drive will not open. I can force it open with a paper clip and put in a disk that way but it does not activate and read the disk. The drive also does not appear as a file selection under my hard disk drives section of my computer.
    With this I am assuming my optical drive is broken so I tried looking for a replacement. I searched for the name of the optical drive in the HP PartSurfer and it says it is called SPS-DRV DVD SATA BD Combo 12.7. Just to be sure, is that the correct part I am looking for? If so, and say I were to go ahead and order this part, how do I go about removing the optical drive in my labtop and replacing it with the new drive?
