• HP Envy D410a computer sleep and offline wireless OSX problem

  Hello

  I'm new but I searched on this forum as well as the apple support forum to get answers.  The problem, I tried to correct is limited to the Wireless business.   I'm under 10.6.7 OSX and Windows 7 64-bit.  Now I can constantly reproduce the problem of the printer goes offline on a Mac, but the D410a works perfectly with Windows 7 64 bit.  I can stop the windows computer or put it to sleep and to restore power or he wake D410a functions perfectly.

  When I put my Mac to sleep then wake him up, I lose the connection to the D410a.  Specifically, I'm trying to print or scan him unsuccessfully using "Preview", the HP Scan 3 utility, as well as the location of Print & Fax that allows you access to the parser.  Try several suggestions throughout these forums, I was able to partially address the problem. I read on the issue of the "Energy Saving" being a problem feature.  I tried power saving setting in the options "after 5 minutes of inactivity" and "after 15 minutes of inactivity'.  But the problem seems to come from the Mac.

  I put my IP on the D410a address to an IP address outside DHCP (static IP).   I fiddled with the configuration of the router, ensure that the printer signal is strong, or that the router is to remember its location.  I played a bit with port forwarding, (don't know what I was really doing). I have checked the firewall settings on the Mac, and they turned off the coast.

  Now as I said earlier, the only way I can get the D410a to respond to any request of Mac such as printing or scanning wireless. is either entering in my router (Dlink DIR - 655-cutting) and make some changes and save the settings.  I guess that's somehow resets the D410a and becomes available on my Mac.  The other way I can 'Reset printer' is on the print server and playing with a few features.  Specifically, I changed the gateway to 0.0.0.0 and the printer printed what was on the qeue.  After having put the Mac to sleep he lost the connection.  I changed the gateway to 192.168.2.1 and the printer and the scanner have been "reset".  Finally, it loses the connection to the Mac.

  Please, help me with smoothing this mess.  I like to use Windows, but there are things on my Mac that require the use of the D410a.  Have work would improve my workflow.  I just got this printer today and I'd rather not go through the hassle to return because I bought this printer for its quality of size and compact construction.

  ... I forgot to mention that I tried to completely reinstall the software.  I also tried an installation of the drivers in a specific order.  1 uninstall the HP drivers > restart Mac > add printer drivers and install Apple HP > download full HP drivers from the website and install.

  Check if your router multicast/IGMP proxy and transmission to enable them if they are not. They mess with re-discovery service of HP I think.

• Renaming files on OSX problem

  I hope someone can help me with this problem fairly quickly. It seems to be pretty simple, just that I'm missing something fundamental here.

  Here is my code to iterate through some layers (in the to lyrs), dupe the document, filling in the active layer and save as PNG.

  // Hide all layers, then loop thru them, trim/crop and save to disk
  for (var i in lyrs){
  
  
      // Set active layer and duplicate doc
      activeDocument.activeLayer = lyrs[i];
      activeDocument.duplicate();
  
  
      // Turn on layer/set visibility
      activeDocument.activeLayer.visible = true;
      if (activeDocument.activeLayer.parent != activeDocument){
          activeDocument.activeLayer.parent.visible = true;
      }
  
  
      // Trim to layer bounds, export file, close duped doc, etc...
      activeDocument.trim(TrimType.TRANSPARENT, true, true, true, true);
      file = File( filePath + "//temp.png" ); // setting temp name
      activeDocument.exportDocument( new File(file), ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, pngOptions );
      activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
  
  
      // Fix path if last character isn't a front or backslash
      if ( !((filePath.match(/.$/) == "/") || (filePath.match(/.$/) == "\\")) ){
          filePath = filePath += "\\";
      }
  
  
      // Two errors here!
      // Windows: File.rename() doesn't overwrite existing file
      // OSX: File.rename() doesn't take place at all - so for each iteration in the loop we only write out the temp file
      alert("2) renaming: \n" + file + "\nTO:\n" + filePath + lyrs[i].name + ".png"); // Confirms correct paths!
      file.rename(filePath + lyrs[i].name + ".png"); // Avoids the hyphens -error with Safe for Web
  
  
      activeDocument.activeLayer.visible = false;
  }
  

  The problem is when I try to rename. OSX happens, even if the paths seem to be right (I checked with alerts) and I do not understand why that this code works very well under Windows.
  The second question that I spotted at least windows (prob even on OSX) is that File.rename () does not work if the file already exists. Y at - there no flag without papers or something that can allow him to do? Or do I have to check for the file and delete it manually? (does not seem necessary!)

  Help is appreciated!

  A problem has been resolved:
  File.Rename () works differently on OSX - you must provide the name of the file ONLY. Provide a complete path will not work.

  Number two still needs fixing. I still have the problem with rename() works only if the file exists.

• File navigation on OSX problem - how to use a filter function?

  I work with file navigation atm using the JSX file objects and the openDlg method and quite frankly, it drives me crazy.

  He has a crazy person decided it was a good idea to have the filter flag on the totally different openDlg method to Win and OSX? Under windows, you use a string for filtering, OSX he wants is a function!

  I checked the documentation and also searched this forum and I can't even find an example of how to set up so that it works for Windows and OSX?

  OK, so I found the syntax, but it still does not make sense.

  fileMask = function(file){file.name.match(/\.psd$/i) ? true:false;}
  

  
  Here we have the psd extension hardcoded in the regular extension. But what happens if we want it to be a variable? And what happens if t he file does not yet exist.

  Basically I want is the user of:
  Navigate to a folder

  Set a file name

  record.

  The extension type must be locked!

  Compared to the way of windows to do things, the way OSX to use a filtering function is too complex, absurd and downright annoying!

  EDIT: I also discovered that you can not write a file on OSX name unless the file already exists. Come on! Is this the type of dialogue hurt or something?

  Here is my script to request a file that handles the differences Win/Mac

  function isWindows() {
    return app.systemInformation.indexOf("Operating System: Windows") >= 0
  }
  function isMac() {
    return app.systemInformation.indexOf("Operating System: Mac") >= 0
  }
  function promptFile(filter_extension) {
    var filter = null
    if (isMac()) {
         if (filter_extension) {
              var filter_regex = new RegExp("[^\.]*\."+filter_extension+"$")
              filter = function (file_entry) {
                   return filter_regex.test(file_entry.name)
              }
         } else {
              filter = function () { return true }
         }
    } else if (isWindows()) {
         if (filter_extension) {
              filter = filter_extension.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + filter_extension.slice(1)+"-files:*."+filter_extension
         } else {
              filter = "All files:*.*"
         }
    } else {
         filter = null
    }
    var f = File.openDialog("Select your file", filter, false)
    if (f) {
         return f.fsName.replace(/\\/g, "/") // sanitize to forward slash
    }
  }
  }

• New Smart Album PSE9 Mac OSX problems

  I am running PSE9 on a Macbook Pro and Imac, both using Mac OS x. creating a new Smart Album on the Macbook works perfectly, but on the Imac, it is impossible. When I try to create a new Smart Album I just get a spinning ball and everything stops. I uninstalled PSE9 and the organizer and also removed any trace of them in the library. Their Setup again and make sure that I import images of only a dozen in organizer makes things a little better. This time the spinning ball lasted for a minute and then I could create smart albums. I then tried to create another Smart Album and had the ball rotates for a few minutes. Creation of the Smart Album has been even worse. There is no problem with the normal albums.

  Someone has a way to turn it. I have about 9000 images, dating back to 2001, and I want to set annual records for smart Albums are a very useful tool.

  A similar request by another Member some time ago received no feedback.

  Thanks for any help.

  I use OS x 10.8.2. Your solution works perfectly - thanks.

  I still don't see why the smart albums do not work on my iMac while it works on my Macbook Pro. If anyone has an idea please let me know.

  I'll give this discussion a few days and then close it.

  Thank you

• Print Code in Dreamweaver 8 Mac OSX problem

  OK, I use Dreamweaver 8.0.1 (I installed the update) and I am on Mac OS x 10.4.4.
  
  When I click on 'Print Code', it will not print it acts as it goes to the printer, but the small bar hangs and I have to force quit dreamweaver. It's the same thing if I try to preview it (by clicking the Preview button), and also the same thing if I try to save print / save it in pdf format.
  I tried to print some other stuff on my computer from applications such as firefox and MS Word and it print very well, it seems that it is something that's wrong with printing of dreamweaver 8.
  
  Any advice / suggestions would be appreciated

  The problem is that if the issue cannot be reproduced, it can't be fixed.
  For example, my DW on OSX10.4.6 8.0.1 prints without difficulty. I am
  printing to HP inkjet connected to the local network via a JetDirect node. What is
  your configuration?

• 3.1EA1 - OSX problem coloring result window

  I'm on OS x with the Look and feel of Mac.
  I checked the option "checkerboard grid or pattern Zebra".
  It is a nice improvement over the previous version, but I would like to change the colors.
  I can live with the yellow and reddish Browns alternate pale colors, but when I select a cell or the cursor around a cell to another cell "active" Gets a thin blue border and the text goes from black to white.
  On red light brown, it is possible to see the text, but it's a real eye strain.
  On the clear yellow, however it is impossible to see what is the text.
  
  How can I change the color of the text in the current cell or the background color of alternating rows?

  kfritsche-

  Same thing happens on Linux (& I assume Windows)

  FYI: you can change the font used in the spreadsheet calculation and grids via preferences-> Code-> Fonts Editor, but not the color.

• Film 10.1 keep to overwrite/closing

  10.1.2 on OSX 10.11.15 iMovie crashes whenever I try to open one of the two films of theater. Also crashes/closes down the selection of Menu background in iMovie when creating new movies. I re installed OSX problem think may be corrupted OS but same problem exists. Someone has ideas of how to do to solve this problem?

  When iMovie is behaving badly trying to open iMovie, hold down the command and option keys and the removal of preferences. If that doesn't help I would reinstall iMovie you gave have these unrelated to the accident.

• I have problems when you try to use a current OSX on my Mac eco system, causal link - specific needs on the three or four main applications.

  My systems include the MacMini, MB Air, Pro MB [all 2011] on OSX 10.8.5 Mountain Lion, with a MacMini extra [2011] with the help of El Capitan (for the purposes of the trial) as well as an iPadAir2 and an iPhone - both on iOS 9.

  I joined the eco system (from Windows) Mac to Snow Leopard and fortunately this used for all my needs. moving through the Mountain Lion and Lion (quickly), where I is a happy user!

  Failure to make progress in terms OSX is the result of...

  1. my extensive libraries of pictures were worked on - and are still being held in - iPhoto ' 09 (8.1.2) - which met my needs exactly - I have many albums which photos should be sorted manually - that is to say, not by Date, the former/Newest or title!  So, the current Photos app does not work as well for me on for my Scrapbook sort, although apparently it allows the movement only photo by mouse?
  2. I made 'heavy' use of iCal using many individual alert entries (!) of my choice as to the date, time, etc. and not very limited alert options offered by the newer versions (iOS-like) to iCal, where I use the alert custom-making every time! I avoid editing or for alerts in iOS 9 because o f the limited options available.
  3. I am a user passionate worksheet and delayed moving on numbers of Excel. I moved platforms for Cougar and live joyfully on numbers now with stored copies online as well.

  Tempting to work in El Capitan, I am "forced" to spend my worksheets to the most recent numbers app when I come to save and cannot then use the 'improved' version recorded on my systems of Mountain Lion (where I still pure copies!) -similar events occur when you use Pages; the lack of recoil connectivity is a major drawback for me that I apparently must keep OSX Mountain Lion to use my key apps 'base' to meet my needs!

  Are there workarounds 'smart' (or applications) that will overcome all (or part) of these "disadvantages", allowing me to good progress and update on El Capitan OSX (and Sierra at the right time)?

  I have to start using a different calendar system to have the usable alert options (which deviates from the eco system) systems on the scale?

  Should I go back to using Windows Excel (or Online) to my spreadsheet to have facilitated cross-OSX usage?

  Thank you.

  On applications of numbers and Pages, there is a real problem if you need backward compatibility - alas, I don't have a solution for you.

  But I do not understand what limits you talk in calendar alerts. I can add events and alerts for them in El Capitan (and now Sierra) using the same methods that I used in previous versions. I can receive messages, sounds or emails in any number and both custom of my choice. Can you serious? Maybe post screenshots of before and after? I'm not available for the comparison of older systems. There are indeed limits if do you the same thing in iOS, but AFAICT not on the mac - and, especially, the alerts personalized on the mac are correctly transferred to the iOS device that I use (an iPhone), to my first mac.

• 10.11.5 OSX creates problem safari @ blogger

  Since the recent update OSX 10.11.5, I am unable to use Safari 9.1.1 to create or modify messages on my blog on Blogger. The cursor does not appear or there is a lag in time when you use controls - small issues that nevertheless make the impossible experience blogging. However, if I use Chrome, I have no problem whatsoever. I do understand that Blogger and chromium are products of Google, but Safari is my default browser and these problems are new for me since the recent update of the OSX software. I just think that Apple should know.

  Apple is not regularly monitor the discussions. These are mostly a user in discussions.

  Send feedback to Apple. They will not respond, but at least know that there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it can become the problem solved as soon as possible.

• I've updated to Snow Leopard for OSX El Capitan as the info said that my Mac 2009 could be updated.  However, I had a lot of problems and it is extremely slow, among other things.  Should I have upgraded Yosemite or something else first?

  I have a 2009 IMac and had Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and IPhotos, latest version.  While he was trying to use something new, I wanted to download (can't remember what now) my system said that I had to switch to OSX El Capitan, so I did.  Since then, I've had nothing but problems, the computer is very slow to open anything and Photos is terrible - I can't do anything with it and I hate it!  I much preferred IPhotos.  My question is, should I have upgraded to Yosemite or something else before going directly to El Capitan?  If so, what can I do now to remedy the situation?  Thanks for any advice.

  My question is, should I have upgraded to Yosemite or something else before going directly to El Capitan?

  No, but you must have insured all the software you have installed, changes to the system, in particular, was compatible with El Capitan.

  You can use iPhoto, but you should get used to the Photos like iPhoto will be is more up-to-date and may stop working at some point.

  If you run this program, it will show what is installed. After the output here and we might be able to offer advice on what's causing your problems

• Internet problem after upgrade to OSX 10.11.3

  I installed update 10.11.3 to OSX El Capitan on my MacBook Pro on Monday night.

  Since the update, I was not able to connect to the internet, either via WIFI or Ethernet. I tried several IPs and configurations, but nothing works. I can connect to local LAN connections and can ping IP address of the Web site. However, I can't access the web with any browser (firefox, opera, safari, chrome). I thought at first it was my company firewall blocks. However, I tried to public WIFI access points and it does the same thing.

  The other weird thing is that I can access the web very well on my virtual Windows machine, whether you use the WIFI or Ethernet. I ran 10 Windows via Parallels.

  Any ideas as to what might solve this problem would be greatly appreciated!

  
  

  Hello dlmhagerstown,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  I see that you have problems connecting to the internet through multiple browsers. I suggest to take a look at the following article:

  Solutions for the connection to the Internet, set up a small network and troubleshooting

  I also suggest emphasizing the section on DNS issues, at least to start.

  Best regards.
