• EPC2203 modem cannot connect to the Mac via USB?

  I searched all threads and you can't find something to solve my problem.

  My ISP sold me the modem Scientific Atlanta EPC2203 cable recently. I can't connect it to my Mac (10.5.7) via ethernet no problem at all. But I can't get a connection via a USB port. The modem operating manual mentions for Mac OS X USB connectivity, but does mention all the details on how to establish the connection: we talk about the installation of PC drivers. Supplied with the modem installation CD only applies to the PC, it seems that I have to take extra steps such as installing a Mac driver? I couldn't find the Mac drivers adapted on internet, then I start to think that this modem is not simply done to connect to the Mac via USB?

  Any help is very appreciated.

  To make your Modem work with USB connectivity, you must install the Modem drivers on your computer. You can try to search for the Drivers that works on the MAC computer or else you can contact the support Tech Atlanta, because they can let you know where you can find the drivers for your Modem. Or well you googled around and you can find the drivers for your Modem which are Compitable MAC.

• 300 satellite - cannot connect printer

  We have 2 Toshiba laptops, the other more old works perfectly and printing wirelessly via the NetGear print server, just bought the satellite 300 and no matter how hard I try cannot get the laptop to print wireless - can go through all the installation procedures, says he recognizes the printer, but as soon as I press to print the test page , he returned to "error".

  I then have to remove printer, uninstall the plug in the USB cable, plug-and-play drivers involved and I am able to print via usb cable, but I really want to print wireless!
  Can anyone help?

  The two notebooks use the same operating system?
  I mean that so old works with Windows XP Home edition and new with maybe Vista you don't have good drivers Vista. Who knows what is the problem here?

  In my opinion, you should contact the manufacturer of the printer and ask what can be the problem. If the WiFi on Toshiba laptop working fine and you can connect it to your router for Toshiba is the end of the story.
  Please don't get me wrong, but all questions with external devices are clarified with the manufacturer of the product. They have enough experience with own products and I'm sure they can help you about this.
  Do you agree with me?

• Cannot connect printer to my tablet surface Windows RT

  I recently bought an Epson XP-410 and has difficulties to download the software of the printer from the given site. Whenever I download it it gives me the message "this app can run on your PC." I don't know why it does not allow me to download the software and do not have a USB key to be able to connect to my printer.

  your tablet can only install the software on the app store for windows. the software you are trying to download is not compatible.

  all drivers for printers will either come from windows update when you connect or you can manually select from a list of pre-installed class drivers (which you already on any version of windows) by manually adding a windows printer.

• Printing from MAC for Deskjet 3050 ALL in one J611n - printer "Not connected" error message

  Good afternoon

  I have problems printing my MAC Book Pro to the printer above.  I said that it is not connected and prints However, when I checked status it shws Networkas "Ready" and the connection as "active"? He doesn't seem to know if it is or isn't?

  I had this problem before on occasions, but now it is a permanent one after upgrading my operating system to 'Maverick '. Now, I have what you call love at first sight bridge on my MAC and don't know what it is for! This has something to do with it? Love at first sight does not appear connected either?

  It's a real pain and I think to get rid of my printer without wire-HELP!

  In addition to the above, I noticed the following error message when I try to print:

  Device status: unknown

  I.D. service: unknown

  I.W Version: unknown

  Serial number: unknown

  Driver version: 2.3.1 HP inkjet driver (why this displays when it's a Deskjet 3050 J611n?)

  Product number: unknown

  I.K no 658

  Watch the device Staus and office as "Unknown".

  3rd update me! In the HP utility is see two printers?  The other has all the full details above with serial numbers and all the info. Watch Staus 'idle' and our 'good '.

  Tracy

  I see that I had 20 veiws and no answer!

  I am new to Mac and not very techno, however I seem to have solved this problem myself.

  I think that after turning to 'Maverick' on my Mac OS Lion, duplicate the printer as 2 showed in 'utility '.

  "I basically deleted that was not'online ' or 'connected '.

  Problem solved!

• iMac cannot connect to 7520 printer (wired) - after six months of work very well.

  My Photosmart 7520 worked fine for six months - cables for iMac, wireless for Mac Book and iPad.

  Suddenly, the iMac to which it is connected, unable to connect to it.  Then, of course, the other devices in the House cannot connect wirelessly is.

  1. total stop did not help.  Printers, sometimes he showed a light yellow, sometimes shown green and slowed down... but sending print jobs made back to "unable to connect".

  2 remove the printer from the list, and since the iMac can't find it, I now have nothing.

  3. I can't do a reset of the printer because I lost the driver for my old Perfection 2400 scanner.

  I have never been able to activate the web services.  That this has something to do with it?

  Help. Sandy

  Hi Sandy,

  Sorry to hear that there are some problems with your connection to the printer Photosmart HP 7520.  If you don't mind not could you please answer a few questions that might help me understand what could happen.

  The 7520 Photosmart printer has an Ethernet (wired network) port, in "wired", I'll assume you mean that the printer is connected to your iMac via USB cable.  You the first thing I would try is to unplug the USB cable to the back of the printer and taking again and then do the same thing at the back of the iMac.  I know that sometimes because of the angle of the cables, they can be loosened.  See if the iMac can then "see" the printer.

  You can remove the printer from the printers and Scanners, system preferences, selecting the printer in the list on the left, then pressing the key less at the bottom of the list.  This should in no way affect or not wearing your Epson Perfection 2400 is always configured in your PC.

  Can you please tell me if your iMac is on the (access point) network as your MacBook and iPAD?

  When you use your iPAD to print, it can "see" the printer (you can select or it appears by name)?

  Finally, if you tap the wireless on the front panel of the printer, it should display the IP address of the printer.  Your MacBook when it is connected to your wireless network, open Safari and type http:// and the address of the printer showed you.  Safari open the page Web of the printer or a mistake?

  Thank you

• The Mac cannot connect to iCloud

  I get a message, the Mac cannot connect to iCloud due to a problem with *.  This is my Apple ID, and I cannot go into Apple.  This happened after I had the mini for Mac guys and the guy deleted stuff in the keychain.  This message constantly comes back again and again even after I said 'later '.  In addition, since I had the machine for the MacGuys, a "Facebook password required" notice appears again and again.  As soon as I selected 'close', he is back in a few seconds.  I can use Facebook very well.  How can I get rid of these popups?

  < personal information deleted, re-titled by host >

  First of all try to access to the keychain via Finder > Applications > utilities > Keychain Aces and connection and re-enter the passwords for problem applications.

  If this does not work, you will need to reset the keychain and re-enter all the password.
