Cannot get mac to install my accept my HP Deskjet F4480

I bought a computer mac laptop and have a mac desktop computer.  The HP Deskjet F4480 came as a promotion for purchase.  I installed the disk that came with it and who says series HP Deskjet F4400 Mac OS X v 10.4 10.5; version 10.0.  My desktop runs Leapard Mac OS X Version 10.5.8.  My laptop is running the same version.

The printer does not appear, so I check the box that says the printer is not listed.  It appear the printer.  I get the following error message when I try to add a printer:

Your device is not listed, it is not supported, it is not supported by the installer.

I downloaded the disk HP downloads software, but I get the same message.

What can I do?  Is there some type of patch or setting on my computers that needs to be changed?

As the drivers of your printer (printing and scanning) are loaded in 10.6, I would uninstall all software from HP which is on your Mac.  Use the application uninstaller in Applications HP > Hewlett-Packard.

Then, do a software update (Yes, again).

Reset the printing system, then add your printer via the sign '+' in print & fax.

One last thing - is known to be good USB cable and you're not going through a USB hub, right?

  • Cannot get online after installing windows XP Edition family on my laptop which was origally XP PRO

    I have a laptop HP Compaq 6830 s that had xp professional did not get a disc of bone with it when buying. The system crashed 0x0000007B error code. I installed OS XP Home version Pro Version and now I't does not recognize my modem or ethernet. Cannot get online. I'll tho the HP site and they don't have that driver for XP Pro Downloads Home Version. I go to the Device Manager and have question marks on the following - ethernet controller (PCI bus 134, device 0, function 0), network controller (bus PCI 3, device 0, function 0), PCI Device (device function 27 of the PCI bus 0 0), Universal serial bus (PCI bus 0, device 29, function 7) (USB) Universal Serial Bus controller (bus PCI 0) (, 26, function 7 device), unknown device (on PCI bus) properties, the properties of the unknown device (on system compatible ACPI Microsoft) and the properties of video controller (VGA Compatible) (bus PCI 1, device 0, function 0) all the points mark have (Code 28). Is there any wat I can fix this or should I install OS XP PRO?

    Go here--> http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

    Enter the model of your computer.  If you just enter 'Compaq 6830 s' you get 3 choices.

    For example, I clicked on the link below and select the link for "XP Professional" coming to this page--> http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3688717&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3688712&swLang=13&taskId=135&swEnvOID=1093

    You're right; There are a large number of items on this page.  You may be able to refine things if you enter your full product number, but if not, here are some general indications:

    "" For each of the downloads, click each tab on the download page and read the information on 'Description' improvements,' 'Instructions of Installation","System requirements"," Release Notes, "and"Revision history" before you install the downloaded driver.

    • Start by "Driver - Chipset" and use "9.1.0.1007 a (January 16, 2009).»
    • Then go to "driver - storage.»  Install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver.  Optional, but probably very desirable, install the new version of HP 3D DriveGuard.  You probably don't need (at least for now), the driver of chip card reader (unless you have an external drive of smart card).
    • Then go to "- Audio driver." Install the driver Microsoft UAA and the most recent drivers SoundMax ADI.
    • Then go to 'Pilot - graphics.' Install the new ATI video driver.
    • Then go to "driver - network."  It's a little more complicated.  Install the Marvel Yukon Gigabit Ethernet controller driver.  This will allow you to connect to your cable or DSL or your router by Ethernet cable.  You must determine if your particular laptop has an Intel or Broadcom wireless adapter.  Looking in the Device Manager in the "Network adapter" section, you should be able to make this identification.  Install the driver for the appropriate device.  If you believe that your laptop is Bluetooth compatible, install this driver as well.  The HP "wireless Wizard" is optional.  I would delay installing this at this stage.
    • Then go to "Driver - keyboard, mouse and input devices."  Install the Synaptics Touchpad driver and one for the HP Quick Launch buttons.

    At this point, most of your hardware should work correctly.  If there is always warning icons in Device Manager, you should be able to understand... or ask again here.  Read the 'Description' for other downloads to see if this is something you want or need.  Be aware, however, that many "Software" downloads are only updates or patches and not the complete package (which probably would have been preinstalled on a new computer.

  • Cannot get Flash Player installed 10.2.153

    Windows XP SP 3 32 bit I have read several different threads and have very similar problems getting Flash Player installed. I tried the two removal of the program to add / remove programs and uninstall program Adobe. I rebooted between uninstalls and installs and install again after. I tried to install IE 8 and FireFox doesn't seem to work. I run the Flash/subject and he did not recognize that Flash Player is installed. I checked the "Kill-bit" and it is not set. I've updated the registry, remove entries of Flash Player in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macormedia\FlashPlayer - FlashPlayerActiveX and FlashPlayerPlugin after uninstalling Flash Player and also remove the Flash folder in C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed and then reboot and retry the installation of Flash Player, nothing helps. It's very frustrating, especially when this user really needs to use Flash Player as part of his work. Please help.

    Thanks again. The Shockwave Flash Object is not installed and it seems that it is acknowledged that exact key, then the Kill-bit is set.

    The plugin for FF is correct.

    Go back to the thread of Kill bits and look in the Post #4. Below are the directions. The file you want to extract this zip file is the one you want to SAVE on your desktop. Then close all the browser windows, disable all antivirus and run this file.

    When that finished, Reboot (restart) your computer and re - activate your AV.

    Who should take care of it. Then, go to the website of test with IE and see if you can see the animation of the Flash Player logo.

    Thank you

  • Cannot get Mac pdf on iPhone.

    Hello

    I have a fully software up-to-date mac and iphone.

    I have a PDF around 20 MB of my mac, I want to read on my iPhone.

    I tried the following:

    • Added the PDF to my iBooks application. iBook is set to synchronize everything however the pdf if not appearing is not in iBooks on the iPhone
    • I parachuted the pdf to the iphone, the window of dialogue emerged with «Open in iBooks...» ». Then I pressed the iBooks option and it launched, but the pdf is not there. I tried several times but it opens just iBooks without opening the pdf file. I also checked that there is no filter on it and PDF files are displayed.

    I checked and read a lot of pdf, so it is certainly the opening on mac iBooks and overview.

    I want to just litrally open this document on my iPhone, it is a little too much email.

    Can someone reccoemnd to other ways to read a PDF on my iphone?

    Thank you.

    Hello Wolfsoap,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see that you are having problems with getting a PDF from your Mac to your iPhone. I have several things for you to check and two ways to do this.

    I would first of all, take a look at your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch with iTunes on your computer via USB to sync and make sure you have correctly set synchronization upward.

    Then, this article explains how on the synchronization of the PDF files on your iPhone: use iBooks with PDFs on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, more precisely, this section:

    Synchronize and save PDF files

    The first time you open iBooks once you upgrade to iOS 9.3 or OS X 10.11.4, you will be prompted to use iCloud. Learn more about synchronization of your books and PDF documents using iCloud.
    You can also add PDF files to your iTunes library on your computer by drag-and - drop the PDF file in your iTunes library. The files will be displayed when you prepare your device to synchronize. If you use OS X Mavericks or later, drag and drop your PDF documents into your library to iBooks using iBooks for Mac. All files PDF or iBook in your iBooks library are available to synchronize your device iOS through iTunes.
    To synchronize a PDF from your computer to iBooks on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch:
    Select your iOS device. (Learn how to synchronize with iTunes).
    Under settings, click on books.
    Select Sync books.
    If iTunes is set to sync only the selected books, make sure that there is to check the box next to the PDF file you want to synchronize.
    Click on synchronize.
    You can also use iTunes to back up your PDF files. To transfer a PDF file on your computer and save them, transfer purchases from your device iOS to your computer. These files are not in an iTunes backup. Learn more about what is included in iTunes and iCloud backups.

    And finally, this article provides information about synchronizing with iCloud drive:

    Sync ePub, iBooks author books and PDFs with iBooks and iCloud

    Best regards.

    DOS programs, who are 16-bit, cannot run in any version of 64-bit Windows because there is no 16-bit subsystem to execute.

    If you have Windows 7 Professional or ultimate edition, you can install XP Mode http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx.

    Otherwise, try dosbox http://www.dosbox.com/ or install a BACK or a 32-bit version of Windows under http://www.virtualbox.org/ Virtualbox or VMWare Player http://www.vmware.com/products/player/.

  • Cannot get Mac to recognize the external hard drive

    try to get my CD on iTunes, bought a new external hard drive which worked flawlessly for 30 CD then nothing, iTunes does not seem to recognize when I put a CD in. Replaced the hard drive but no improvement.

    I can always migrate songs of a laptop.

    I'm confused. By "hard drive" do you mean "optical drive"?  I don't know how you get a CD to a hard drive.

    Do you mean in your iTunes library?  iTunes is the application itself which opens libraries. You can't get a CD on/in/at the inside of/etc, iTunes.
