Win 7 and J6480 wireless

I have the officejet J6480 set up wireless through a linksys router. I got a new HP laptop yesterday and finally got the printer installed on it by using windows update and in the printer folder, add printer, local port, standard TCP/IP port, select IP address of the J6480, then clicked on windows update, the list repopulated and I selected the officejet J6400 series and completed installation. I was able to print wirelessly from the laptop at that point. However today when I booted the laptop up I can not print. The printer is selected as the default printer but when I tell it to print the status says that it is offline. Any ideas how to remedy this?

hp says on there web site there will be a win 7 driver for the j6480 in late Jan of 2010 . I am having the same problem with win7 , linksys wireless router a new hp laptop and the j6480 . I guess we (and a lot of other folks ) will just have to wait till HP gets off its lazy butt and gets this driver out to us .

I want to print directly from my iPad to a HP Officejet J6480 wireless printer. Do I need an app for this or can I do it without and if so, how?

I am a new iPad (wi fi version) owner but not the new iPad 2. I have a home wireless network and have a HP Officejet J6480 wireless printer. I print from my iMac and Powerbook directly using the wireless network and want to print directly from my iPad also. Do I need a special app for this or can I do this with something already "built-in" to the operating system of the iPad.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If you're comfortable going 'under the hood', this thread originally started in November 2010 contains a minor tweak to OS X that might work for you:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2658720?threadID=2658720&tstart=0
It allows devices on iOS 4.2 or newer to print to shared wired and wireless printers as long as the Mac is on and awake.

Magic Mouse and Apple Wireless Keyboard with Bootcamp and Win XP Pro 32-bit

Does the Apple Magic Mouse and Apple Wireless Keyboard work with Boot Camp running Windows XP Pro (32-Bit)... I read something leading me to believe there maybe a problem and you need to use a wired USB mouse/Keyboard.
Is this true?

Apple Wireless Keyboard is able to work in Boot Camp via Window XP Pro, it's good enough.
but the Magic Mouse, it's not able to work completely in Window XP Pro,
it's just work like a normal bluetooth wireless mouse,
all the Multi-Touch features like scroll, rotate, swipe, pinch and tap click are not gonna work,
even you are configure via the snow leopard, so please be reconsider.

How do i run an external monitor with my macbook and change settings so that when i close the lid the signal to the monitor is not lost and i can continue using the mac with a mouse and a wireless keyboard?

No, nothing will prevent the computer from going to sleep when you close its display except third-party hacks that are designed to do exactly that. I strongly advise against using any of those, as they may interfere with successful entry into clamshell mode (and they carry other downside risks as well). Just wait until the computer is asleep (with its sleep light pulsing), then press any key on the keyboard. It sounds as though your setup is working as it's designed to do.

I see that the Mac Book Pro is picking up the internet when I check the internet preference section but it will not open Safari.

You need to power off the modem for 15-30 seconds, then power back up and then connect. The modem is remembering the last connection (your friend).

My new iMac has recently had OSX Lion installed on it and now when I start the machine it looks like its updating something every time, and the wireless doesn't work. So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time?

So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time - then I have to repeat this again! Any help appreciated.

I've been having the same issue, but have just discovered something on my own that hasn't been pointed out in any of the forums I've visited. In what I thought would be a vain attempt to help myself, I went to System Preferences, Users & Groups, and then clicked on Login Items. I discovered that one of the Items that was listed to open automatically upon login was iTunes Helper and that there was an exclamation point beside it indicating that it was incompatible. I simply deleted that item and now I don't have the situation you described and my wireless is connected. Hope this helps!

Can you help resolve a "Go Wireless" and Verizon Wireless issue?

How do you file a complaint against "Go Wireless" and Verizon wireless? It was partially my mistake because I didn't realize that Go Wireless charges a premium for their service. That said, I was informed by the sales person that I could get the $150 bill credit per phone line I ported over, and a $200 visa card for each smart phone I turned in. That's $350 for each phone in credits.. This seemed like a great deal, so I purchased 3 phones, samsung galaxy 5. I paid a $50 premium per phone to buy them from the store (note..there are NO PRICES listed, you have to rely on what the sales persons quotes you). I also paid a $20 per phone "set up" fee and a $10 sim card fee. Again, I take responsibility for not asking if other verizon stores charged these additional fees. HOWEVER, when I was told to go to the corporate verizon store to get the envelopes for to turn in the smart phones for the $200 per phone credit - this was not my lack of research. I did go to the corporate office and was told that the $200 offer had ended 7 days ago. I went back to "Go Wireless" and the store manager told me that the employee was misinformed and was working off a quote sheet that was out dated. Ok, now you'd think they'd offer something to fix their "mis-informed" employees mistake. No, they said there was nothing they could do. I could return each phone for an additional stocking fee of $35, and cancel my plan. So, here I am...paid a premium for the phones, was "misinformed" by a store agent who was working off an outdated specials sheet, and my only recourse is to pay $105 to return the 3 phones. Something isn't right here. Verizon won't do anything, Go Wireless won't do anything. Any suggestions?

My girlfriend had a similar issue because her new device was not updated to IOS7 when she turned it on, but her backup point was created using IOS7. Check to be sure the restore point was created and then factory reset the phone after you have updated to 7.

Netgear WNDR3700, Tp-Link WPS510U, Epson Photo 1400 and PowerRIPX: wireless connection

Hi All
I need some advice regarding a wireless connection to my inkjet printer.
I have recently replaced my router with a Natgear WNDR3700 dual band device (2.4G and 5G). Connected and working wirelessly are my MacBook Pro, iPhone, Zeppelin Air, smart TV. Connected and working wired are my satellite modem, VoIP ’phones and laser printer.
However, I have an Epson Photo 1400 with a Tp-Link WPS510U which isn’t working. It worked with the old router.
Netgear’s Genie application shows the printer to be available under AirPrint.
The printer driver I use is PowerRIPX PostScript.
The TP-Link has the correct IP address from the previous configuration (192.168.1.10).
Printing shows the document processing in the print queue, but there is no flashing green LED on the front of the printer and no output results.
So … how do I actually get this to work? Advice gratefully received.
Cheers
Paul

The problem is not the router.. the issue is the vpn has put your computer in a different IP range with a different gateway. When you turn off the vpn the computer returns to local lan and can print.
Some vpn software allows you to set gateway to use local net instead of remote gateway or access to other webistes or local lan.
Read up the issue.

Cisco vpn client..
https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/239113
I did not search much.. just grabbed the first article I could find that explains the issue.
The whole point of the vpn is whilst it is connected your computer is NOT part of the Local Lan .. it is part of the Remote LAN via the vpn tunnel.
It is also a security risk using split tunnelling so often it will not be allowed.
Plug the printer directly into the computer via usb or whatever.. Local connection will work.. not local lan.

Best way to transfer video between iphone and mac wirelessly?

Please suggest me the best way to transfer files between mac and iphone wirelessly.Mainly for videos.

If you want to transfer photos and videos from the Mac to the iPhone (but not in the other direction) you can use iTunes and sync via wi-fi: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386
If you want to wirelessly tranfer videos in the other direction you may want to look into a 3rd party app such as http://www.photosync-app.com Note that I have not used that app so be sure to investigate others as well.

I have a 2009 Mac mini and the wireless card has never worked, would I be able to cover it with my three year extended warranty?

If you mean AppleCare, then I would believe the answer will be yes.
First make sure you have a full backup of everything on your Mac, then run, don't walk to your nearest Apple store.
Note: Due to your Mac now being in computer years, somewhat elderly, Apple may not have the require parts in stock. This will either mean you might have to leave it with them for a number of days, or maybe they will offer you a new Mac mini. While a new Mac mini (if offered) might be a welcome possibility be aware that the new Mac mini no longer has a CD/DVD drive and it comes with Mac OS X Lion and as a result might not run some of your old software.

Log In Error and Poor Wireless Speed

Hello Forum Members,
I just picked up a EA6500 wireless router today and I am a bit disappointed. I paid $199 for this router because I was hoping to take advantage of of fast N speeds and the advanced features it offers.
When I first logged in to set up the router, I saw an amber exclamation point with a note that read "Updating Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Service". When I put my password in I was met with a "Unexpected Error" message.
Any idea what that means?
Any idea how to fix it?
Also, the firmware updater doesn't work.
Minor issues but I would hope these could be resolved. Now on to the more bothersome issue. Wireless speed is poor. I replaced a WRT160NL router with this one. On my old router using WPA2-Personal (AES) I would see speeds of ~300 Mbps. On my EA6500, I see 120 Mbps. I have checked and double checked all wireless and security settings and don't see anything that looks wrong.
Anyone else see this? Any ideas how to resolve?
Thanks,
garrman

Hi Jibjib,
To say I have cascaded the EA6500 into another router would be inaccurate. I have the VDSL line coming into a 2Wire gateway. I decided not to use the wireless built into the 2Wire because it is wireless G only. The 2Wire gateway is handling the DHCP function. I have disabled the DHCP in the EA6500 so it acts like a switch for wired connections and a wireless access point.
Here is a link to my set up http://www.sbbala.com/uverse/ I used methos 2.
As mentioned above, I had a WRT160NL set up in the exact same configuration and it worked great delivering ~300 Mbps to the next room.
I'm not using the EA6500 in bridge mode as that's not what I am looking to do.
I don't think you would call what I'm doing LAN to LAN. I'm not creating a separate wireless network but rather a wireless access point.
The only changes I made from the stock configuration is to set the EA6500 ip address to 192.168.1.252, renamed both the 2.4 and 5.0 GHz wireless bands and apply WPA2 security. Lastly, I disabled DHCP on the EA6500.
Not sure why this would work on a WRT160NL and not on the EA6500.
Open the first link provided by jlbjlb or click List of common issues with Linksys Wi-Fi and Smart Wi-Fi Routers. I am sure that with that particular link, you can find the information and or suggestions helpful in resolving the type of issue you are having with the router.

Wine and xrandr

I'm trying to run some games with wine, but everyone shows the same problem when I try to run it in fullscreen.
For instance if I run Starcraft or Fallout 2, terminal says:
fixme:advapi:SetSecurityInfo stub
fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32f420,0x00000000), stub!
err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 640x480x8 @0! (XRandR)
err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 1680x1050x8 @0! (XRandR)
err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 1680x1050x32 @0! (XRandR)
So I've found out that xrandr only has one mode:
Screen 0: minimum 2960 x 1050, current 2960 x 1050, maximum 2960 x 1050
default connected 2960x1050+0+0 0mm x 0mm
2960x1050 50.0*
As you see, I have a dual monitor setup on nvidia card, and I configured everything with nvidia-settings.
So my question - how do I add more 'modes' to xrandr.

Since this is a problem which many have even today, im posting this GREAT solution
http://linuxgamingtoday.wordpress.com/2 … g-in-wine/
and mods, i hope this is not considered 'necroposting the ONLY solution', im sorry if it is.
