Windows 8 and Bonjour issues

I have an Epson NX415 printer scanner connected to an iMac running OSX 10.7.5 through USB. The printer has been shared and I can print from several devices including a Macbook Pro, an iPad, and older Macbook. My wife's previous computer, running Windows 7, was also able to print. She now has a new laptop running Windows 8. I have installed the latest version of Bonjour on this machine. When I try to add the printer through Bonjour, I get the message "You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer." I have tried everything I can find on the internet and nothing works. What am I missing?

Im not sure that will solve the issue I have with itunes. I have a lenovo laptop and I think it's just an issue with Apple who has to modify the program for users of Windows 8 so that itunes can be used and to find purchased music. I found the music I purchased through itunes but it's not the full tracks. It said it allows me to download it fully so I can hear the whole track, but needs some kind of capatibility? I have no idea what the problem is. If someone has the answer knowing my computer brand and having windows 8 compatibility issues, please let me know what you suggest.

Access TimeCapsule over the internet with Windows and Bonjour

Hi,
I tried multiple things to access my Time Capusle over the internet but I can't figure it out. Obvioulsy everybody except me has a Mac. I will buy one soon, promise but now I need help with this Piece o S windows laptop.
I forwarded the port 548 on my modem to the capsule, it didnt work (I didnt mount the drive though since I dont know how with windows)
I clicked on sharing drives with bonjour in airport utility, created a host name username password but now how do I access it?
Within the network everything works fine. I can access the drive with iphone, ipad und Piece oS but not remotely.
Please help.

You cannot access it from windows.. sorry. Any files you want.. copy to the laptop beforehand or use cloud storage.

Reformatting from Mac to Windows and hitting issues.

Recently got a new Windows computer that I moved my library to, so I needed to reformat my iPod. I was prompted by windows to format the disk, and I did using the default values (file system: xFAT; allocation unit size: 256kb) and then attempted to restore via iTunes. It tried and gave me an error (1415, I think? It directed me to this page). So I restarted the computer to try again, but now iTunes is telling me that it's detecting a corrupted iPod. It can't seem to restore it. Not sure where to go from here.
Any help with being able to restore the iPod properly would be great.

The iPod is probably OK, since the Restore works on the Mac. And iTunes on Windows should reformat it for Windows during the Restore. Don't know why it does't...
Since you have both Mac and Windows to play with, try this... On the Mac, connect the iPod (with iTunes NOT running) and open Disk Utility. The iPod should appear in the sidebar. Select the iPod device (not the volume indented below) in the sidebar. Go to the Partition tab. For Partition Layout, select 1 Partition. Click Options, select Master Boot Record, and OK. Name it whatever you want. For Format, select MS-DOS (FAT). Click Apply.
When that completes, which should be in less than a minute, eject and disconnect the iPod. Connect it to the Windows PC, and run iTunes. Whether you are prompted or not, do a Restore. Any difference?

Jabber and Bonjour windows won't open

My jabber and bonjour windows have stopped opening. They used to work. One day I closed them and can't get them open again. Any help out there?

Hi,
Summary of the last.
In iChat > Preferences > Accounts the items should be marked as Use the Account
This will log it in but will not guarantee display of the Account's Buddy List as you can Hide it as I described before.
In iChat > Preferences > Accounts the list is drag-able so that they can be in any order you want.
This effects the order they display in iChat's Window menu and the Keystrokes Used. If you have them as AIM, Bonjour then Jabber - the Keystrokes will be Apple (⌘) key and 1 for AIM, then Apple (⌘) and 2 for Bonjour and the Jabber one is then Apple(⌘) and 3 (Keys are used together at the same time)
It also effect the order the accounts display in iChat menu > Accounts.
Clicking this red button will hide that particular Buddy List
This is My iChat Window Menu.
It show three accounts logged in.
These menu Options do not mean the Buddy List is visible.
As I have iChat 4, the order is as I set them in iChat > Preferences > Accounts as the list here can have one item dragged above or below another.
As I have two names that work with the AIM servers the AM valid names shows as the Account name rather than saying "AIM Account"
IF you highlight the Buddy List Name as I have done in this pic you can Hide or Reveal the Buddy List (Alternate action). Using the red button highlighted in the first pic hides the Buddy List)
You will notice the Keystrokes to use at the end of the line.
I am not sure where you mean you are clicking on a Red button in your last paragraph - unless you mean you are clicking on the iChat icon in the DOCK when it displays a red blob with a number to say how many text messages you have not read there are.
It is possible to have a chat with a Buddy from a List that is Hidden and clicking the iChat icon should bring the Chat window to the Front rather than make the Buddy List appear.
Unfortunately I do not have a Buddy free at the moment I write this to check the variants.

Drivers for Windows Server 2008 and HDD issues

Recently I have had the hard drive with my OS fail. After replacing the hard drive and reinstalling windows server 2008 I seem to have run into a few issues with drivers. After insalling Windows, I had 3 items in my device manager that did not install properly. I was able to get the driver for the LAN port to work but I have not gotten the driver for "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" and "SM Bus Controller". After a little research, I believe the video card is a Radeon HD4350. With that information I still have been unable toinstlal the correct drivers for either of these items. I've tried several drivers listed on the drivers support page on HP's website but all fo them return the same error about not finding the correct Operating System. The link to the driver I used originally on my previous installation seems to not be valid any longer.
Also I can't seem to access the two additoinal hard drives (connected by sata). They were used with the previous installation of windows with no issues. They appear in the device manager but do not show up under My Computer. A removeable drive does show up that I'm not sure what it is. Previously I had used software to mirror one of the drives onto the other as to prevent losing data if a drive would fail. Is one of the above drives causing the issue with not being able to access the drives or did the software used before cause the problem?
Any help on these issues is greatly appreciated.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

OK.
I can't help you with the drives then. That is out of my realm of knowledge. If they are marked healthy and active in the disk management utility, then that is all I know that they should be indicated.
As for the graphics driver...
Download and install this free file utility.
http://www.7-zip.org/
After you install 7-zip, right click on the graphics driver file and select 7-zip from the list of options.
Select 7-zip to Extract to: and let it extract the file into a folder. I let it extract to the file name of the folder.
Then just follow the rest of my instructions to install the driver.
Of course you will first browse to where 7-zip has extracted the folder to, and proceed from there.

Gaming issues and heat issues, running windows 8.1 pro via bootcamp

I have a few problems, and I don't know what else to do, then to write for help here..
I really hope someone out there can help me, because I have had this problem since I bought my laptop mid 2012, and I got smarter since then, so now I know that I actually shouldn't have these problems, it's not because my very expensive laptop is bad, or that it is a laptop or because it's a mac, regardless of what people say, I'm positively certain that it's a problem which shouldn't be there.
I have pretty great specs, (trust me i checked them out, not the best in the world, but pretty good) yet I can't enjoy 1 single mmorpg game like, Tera, or the new Archeage (currently in open beta), or any other game, (swordsman online)... Even though people say Tera has bad coding, I have tried adjusting things for weeks if not months, NOTHING helps, i get a frame rate that is from 0-25 very unstable, usually around 7-12, and sure if I go the lowest settings in the games I can get very unstable framerates but i guess they can get up to around 35-72 but drops to like 7 or 3 sometimes as well, so even on the LOWEST settings in the games I can't enjoy the games fully... It lags and such because of the low fps ofc...
Other than that it also have a heat issue, mostly when running windows 8.1 in bootcamp.
It get's quite hot, just by opening a browser window, and yes i have tried reseting smc, and p-rams, many times.. nothing seems to help.
And even if it helped the heat problem, the gaming problem is still there.
Now to my specs: (I have the macbook pro retina, mid 2012, 15 inch)
- Prosseser: 2.6GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor (Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz) with 6MB shared L3 cache. "Core i7" processor (3720QM)
- Memory: 16GB 1600MHz DDR3L onboard memory
- Storage: 256GB ssd flash storage. (Seperated into os x = 130GB, windows 8.1 pro = 120GB) Running games and such from my 1TB external harddisk.
- Graphics and video support:
Intel HD Graphics 4000
NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory and automatic graphics switching
Dual display and video mirroring: Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 2560 by 1600 pixels on up to two external displays, at millions of colors.
And here's a link to see what is inside it for yourself: http://http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core- i7-2.6-15-mid-2012-retina-display-specs.html
When that is said, apple's warranty has run out, and I didn't buy apple care, but I still have warranty from the store (humac) I bought it in, because in my country the law is warranty 2 years, no matter what, but if i can avoid it, I REALLY would like to avoid switching it out with a new one, since there could be problems all over again, and I would lose what I have on it right now, plus it's a hassle to get a new one, they will always try and fix it for a long long time before they give a new one, and probably can't find the problem...
But if that's the only thing i can do about it, I will ofc, but just don't advise me to do that, unless there's no other solution to the problems.
Please help me.
ps: sorry if I posted it the wrong place, I wasn't allowed to post it the right place by apple...

If the underlying hardware was exposed correctly by the CSM-BIOS when Windows was installed, your Device Manager should look like this.
If the Windows installer did not see any devices as your screen indicates, Windows will use generic software-based drivers which will be very slow and painful.
Rudegar ... I think the Windows installer did not see any hardware, otherwise there should be HW with yellow triangles with exclamation marks.

Help needed with Windows 8.1 boot and recovery issue

Hi. I hope someone can help me out with this Windows 8.1 issue. A friends computer (HP 2000-2c27CL Notebook) was badly infected and while I was able to do some cleaning in normal Windows I had to do some in Safe Mode. I was not being able to access Safe Mode so I went to Advanced Startup Options in Windows 8, Troubleshoot, then Advanced options, and finally the Command Prompt. Using the command prompt I typed "bcdedit /set {default} safeboot network" to have Safe Mode with Networking. Ever since I did that I haven't been able to get Windows to do a normal boot. I always get Safe Mode. I can't get back to Advanced Startup Options either. Via msconfig in Safe Mode I selected the Normal startup button on the General tab and selected apply and then ok. It then prompted me to restart the computer which I did. This did not fix the issue as I continue to get Safe Mode every time I start the computer. I also tried to do a complete system restore by typing "Recovery" in Windows 8 which brought up the HP Recovery Manager. Once in there I selected the Windows Recovery Environment and it prompted me to reboot the computer. I was expecting to get to an area where I could do a complete factory restore, but I again got booted into Safe Mode. What the heck is going on? The person who has this computer has no restore media... no USB or DVD discs made. There is however a recovery partition I believe, but as I said I can't do anything because I keep getting Safe Mode. Also I tried to use a antivirus emergency boot disk with this computer and I could not get it to boot from the DVDRom drive. I went into the BIOS and saw that Legacy is disabled and UEFI appears to be enabled by default. How am I to change the boot order to get it to boot from the disk and do scans for malware? I thought I did it correctly by moving the Rom drive to the top of the list, but that didn't work. I despise Windows 8x!!!
Help with this is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi HPenn, welcome to the HP Forums. Unfortunately if you are unable to perform a recovery using any of the available methods: Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8)
You will have to order recovery media: Order software and driver media
I hope this helps.

Windows 8 and Itunes Issues

Smartform Main window and Footer Overlap Issue

Hi,
I have a problem in printing my invoice smartform.
I have to print the footer at the bottom of the main window. If the line items flow to the next page the footer should be printed only on the last page.
I have overlapped the main window and footer windows in first and next page so that the footer window space in the main window is not left empty when there are more than one pages
The problem is sometimes the main window is overlapping into the footer window space.
Can someone suggest a solution for this.
Thanks,
Viswas

Hi,
Solution: The issue faced after overlapping the main window with footer window can be achieved by creating a folder within the main window and using the events to check whether there is enough space to print the footer.
Following are the steps.
Step 1: Create a Secondary window say “Footer” which would be the footer window. Overlap the main window on the footer window as shown below.
The footer window will be behind the main window
Step 2: Create a folder within the main window say “Check_Footer”.
Go to Tab “Events”, select the checkbox “Footer with Height” and give the required height of the footer. Select the checkbox “at End of Table”. Specify the “Minimum height” as required.
Now, go to “Conditions” tab and select the checkbox “Only before end of main window”.
This is basically done to check whether there is enough space to print the footer on that page. The Footer window would then print the output.
Step 3: Go to the created “Footer” window .Under the Conditions tab, select the checkbox “Only after end of main window”. Create a text/tamplate/window whatever you want to display at bottom or footer data.
Step 4: Save & Activate the Smartform and check the output.

Rohit

Lightroom and Windows mouse focus issues.

In one aspect Lightroom have been always behaving different from other Windows application: Its speed of grabbing mouse focus and moving window to the foreground is exaggerated. This problem will be observed only by people using their WinXP computers in "X11 mode", like with Unix, what allows to perform interaction with processes associated with windows without ever clicking on, or raising such window. Should you be working on large computer clusters as I do, this focusing feature its a blessing.
This how you can reproduce: Use Tweak UI to adjust the mouse behavior. Select "Mouse," step down to "X=Mouse" and check "Activation follows mouse." Do not select "autoraise."
Now your WinXP will behave similar to the real X11 xterm with mouse having the "no raise selection" policy. Its not quite identical to xterm, but it really works perfectly in most cases.
Except... well, except with Lightroom. Lightroom grabs the pointer and pushes the window to the foreground in splits of a second. For example, go to
"Help|About Adobe Lightroom" to see the credit window. It appears than as usual, but since the help menu will be dismisses, the pointer stands on the main Lightroom window, what makes the credits window vanish in split of a second. No chance to see it!
Another case: Assume that Lightroom uses almost the entire desktop down to the task bar, and your browser window is smaller. Select the browser on the taskbar and try to move mouse to it. No chance! Lightroom will take over and pop itself to the foreground again. The only solution is to minimize Lightroom. And than sometimes something happens that Lightroom will not restore itself anymore! The "Restore" operation is grayed out, one can only Maximize it. We have reported this numerous times before.
I am aware that this problem relates only to WinXP users with X11 mouse mode, but with Lightroom reaching now a high degree of maturity, maybe we could take a look at this problem as well?

In order to overcome most of the known navigation and/or focus issues you need to be using the following:
<li>Forms 10.1.2.3 or newer (latest is 11.1.2). If/when you are using 10.1.2.3 you would also need to install patch ID 9593176 as this contains additional fixes for focus issues.
<li>JRE 1.6.0_26 or newer (latest is 1.6.0_30). The latest is always recommended as it contains the most up to date fixes for both technical issues and security issues.
Patches are only available on MyOracleSupport: http://support.oracle.com
