Strange problem with wireless MAC

I think I have a rather unusual question.

The problem is that my Macbook Pro (osx Lion) is not able to access my Photosmart B109n wireless. I can only connect via the usb cable. I share the printer with two other laptop users (windows), but they are able to connect wirelessly. I have reinstalled the driver several times and tried to install the network configuration again and again but nothing works. This problem exists already for a long time, also until I upgraded to Lion.

I am convinced that the problem is not due to my router. At school, I'm not able to use the HP color LaserJet as well and I can only print via ethernet. In other words, there is something wrong with my mac. Seriously, I don't know what it could be.

Our "home network" is called "Fitz". Whenever I try to install the network printer configuration, the printer asks the key network and attempts to connect to "Fitz". Whenever the printer is able to connect to the network. After that, the config. Assistant told me that I can remove the usb cable to continue the installation. Then the problem happens. At the moment I have remove the usb cable, the laptop immediately tells me that it is not able to connect to the printer, because I am not connected to "Fitz" (I'm always) and I can only use the wireless printer if I am connected to "Fitz".

Reset the print/fax list no longer works!

Please please can someone help me? Thank you!

Nevermind, I was able to solve the problem today!

All I had to do was pick "Shared printer on the network" check box in the printer preferences. Gosh, if I had known this before... I was not able to print wireless for 5 months. Makes me so stupid.

  • Strange problem with measurement of the color under Mac.

    Hello, I have a strange problem with measurement of the color under Mac. For example I create a gradient in Photoshop color 200 200 200 color 240 240 240. When I measure the color of the gradient with the Photoshop color measurement tool or with the built in OS X color measurement tool measured color is of 200 199 197 to 240 240 238. I measured the same gradient with Photoshop for PC and the values are OK (the same values that I create).

    I don't know what the problem is, but I think that the colors that I create are the same I have measure after creating them and also values between Mac and PC. I appreciate much help or information you could give me that helps me understand what is happening here.

    Thank you for your time

    Marcelo.

    Yep, you guessed it, evidence as monitor basically removes all profiling and just offer it right.

    is it possible to make the OS X color measurement tool to measure the original color values

    You mean the colors of paper - No., as I said photoshop filter your image through the profile document, proof of installation and the monitor profile. Why use Digital color meter for this though?

    I don't understand what is measurement of color values that will change every time point calibrate it my monitor.

    Because color values are "larger" what is on your monitor. Your monitor (via photoshop) makes only the best he can to display these values, which can be anything from LAB colors outside the range of your monitor - to the CMYK color. Calibration, it is the only way to allow your monitor to do this in any way accurately. (never really impossible) The monitors have a certain range and are only representations / would the REAL colors who is the holder of a document, with a profile. There's only one good reason to measure the monitor values so that is to build a monitor profile.

  • Strange problem with HP OfficeJet 6500 709n

    I have a very strange problem with my printer HP 6500 E709n wireless network.  I have recently upgraded to Windows 8 and everything worked well.  Then, all of a sudden I wasn't able to scan more.  The HP Solution Center says that the printer is disconnected.

    The weird part is that it appears in the section of Control Panel as active and properly connected printer and devices and I can still print to it, but not scan to it. He also says in the network section of the HP solutions center that the printer is connected and ready.  The printer is connected to my wireless network and I also use it with a Mac Mini.  The Mac can print and scan to it.

    No idea why this is happening and how to fix it?  Thank you.

    This problem of not being able to scan only started after upgrade to Windows 8?

    If so, then to solve the problem, you must first uninstall the Windows 7 software and then reinstall the software of Windows 8 long.

    To uninstall the software, follow these steps:

    1 right-click or press on and hold the lower left corner of the screen, then click or type programs and features. A list of installed programs.
    2. click or tap the name of your HP printer, and then click or tap on uninstall.
    3. follow the on-screen instructions to uninstall the software.

    After you have uninstalled it, go ahead and download the full software features for your printer. It can be found on the link below.

    Install this version of the software and try to scan now!

    Let me know if it works for you, good luck!

    I have a strange problem with my RAM supported by installers.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    The last is a picture of the Terminal window.

    Just because it lists 'Console' does not mean that it has nothing to do with this application.

    You have not said why or what you're trying to install so I can't help with that.

    You can use the activity monitor to leave their.

    After you select an item, use the X in a type of stop sign icon and confirm force quit.

  • Strange problem with find/replace

    I'll have a little strange problem with find/change in InDesign CS4 Mac.

    The document is a data merge.  In the worksheet, there are two fields that contain either a '@' or a '&', depending on the context.  These are just placeholders - the plan was to convert glyphs of the police 'Wingdings 2' after creating the merged document.  We do it this way because we couldn't figure out how to get the glyphs themselves in the .csv file.  Two glyphs are < FO54 > and < FO56 >.

    First I used find/replace to change all the '@' symbols to < FO54 >.  That has worked well. But then when I tried to change the symbols "&" < FO56 >, I got the < FO54 > again instead.  In fact, now I ask what glyph, I get < FO54 >.  Find/replace always normally works for normal text... it of just that he seems to have decided that if I ask a glyph, I get < FO54 >, anything.

    I tried to shut down and restart, but the bug is still there.

    Any thoughts?

    I used the tabs of glyphs in find/replace when I tested it, but what you describe seems to work as well.

    anyone had problems with the Mac taken hostage by ransomeware?

    Hey portogermano,

    I have not had problems yet, but I've heard that sort of ransomware is distributed through a program called Transmission.

    If you can, try to avoid this software!

    If you are installing applications from one other source other than the Mac App Store, make sure you can check the original source and always go to the site of real editors, so that you know that you are getting the real thing, not a bad software.

  • strange problem with Ericsson H5321

    Hello

    I have a strange problem with Ericsson H5321 on my X 230. Until a few weeks ago, the card worked perfectly as a modem (at least on Linux, so I guess it would be too much work in Windows). Unfortunately, a few weeks ago disappeared from the network manager modem connection. I checked that all the special device for this files still exist:

    $ because I in/sys/class / * / * {ACM, wdm} * / device/interface; echo-n "${i}: ';" $ Cat {i}; fact
    / sys/Class/TTY/ttyACM0/Device/Interface: H5321 gw Broadband Mobile Modem
    / sys/Class/TTY/ttyACM1/Device/Interface: H5321 gw Mobile broadband data Modem
    / sys/Class/TTY/ttyACM2/Device/Interface: H5321 gw Mobile Broadband GPS Port
    / sys/Class/usbmisc/CDC-wdm1/Device/Interface: H5321 gw management of mobile devices to wide band
    / sys/Class/usbmisc/CDC-wdm2/Device/Interface: H5321 gw Mobile Broadband USIM Port
    $ lsusb | grep Ericsson

    .. .and I also checked it works like GPS (at least kind of: it generates data on/dev/ttyACM2 NMEA streams, but cannot get a GPS fix even after 45 minutes with access to an open sky).

    Then I tried to run windows 7 and the card is visible in the "Device Manager", but there is also no possibility to create the GSM connection in the connection menu in the bottom right.

    I tried a new install of Windows 7, I tried to reset the BIOS (even with the removal of the battery backup), but still I can't force them to work again. My BIOS is fully upgraded BTW: the problem appeared during the use of 2.61 and I also tried with recently published 2.62.

    My cell phone is always on the extended warranty, but as modem bought in line with the basic configuration it was only covered by the warranty of 12 months has expired

    Today it came to my mind that, as the modem itself seems a little work (present, responsive GPS device) then maybe it's a SIM card reader that is actually damaged (which would explain a bit why the camera itself is present, but I can't create a connection). Can someone confirm or deny my theory? If it is valid, then I could still replace SIM card reader because it is part of the basic configuration.

    Thanks a lot for your suggestions!

    [Mystery solved: I managed to put the SIM card on a wrong side...;]
    [I hate myself so muuuuch;]
    ([btw: Lenovo could fix their SIM card reader, so there is only one possible way to put a SIM card using his corner of heart: it would have saved me 2 days of stress and an investigation;]) )

  • Strange problems with the database

    Hello

    I just got my Fuze and am very happy with it; However, I am having a very strange problem with the database. I have a 16 GB sdhc card that I use with the "rocket" and there are about 4 songs on the card that will not play and have no information charge tag. Their tags appear in the tag browser (not the in the track information screen) as just an empty rectangle. Under the track information screen, sizes are listed as ~ 4000 mb. The songs will not play and I can not jump in front of one of these songs once they were loaded.

    At first, I suspected some kind of corruption of tag, so I set out that night to track down the problem. I removed the 16 GB card and reset the player. Then, I loaded one of the corrupt in the internal memory of the player. The track has been scanned and played correctly. Then, I removed the track of the internal memory and it loaded on another SDHC card. Yet once, everything worked correctly, so I knew that the card I was using was a kind of system files or physical problem. I returned the original 16 GB sdhc card in the reader and checked that the file was still unplayable, and then I plugged the "rocket" to my computer. I transferred the unplayable file on my computer and compared (with md5sum) to the original file, thinking that if there was the file system or physical corruption the copy of the map would be damaged. However, the files were equivalent.

    To make things even more interesting, I also have problems with the registration of the kind. I have some files tagged Genres such as 'Classic' and 'Rock '. In the list of the genre, I see this:

    C

    CL

    CLA

    CLAS

    Class

    Classic

    Classic

    Classica

    Classic

    Rock

    So, there is corruption on the kind of 'Classic' but not the kind of "Rock". Each of the substrings of 'Classic' contains only a few titles, with most of the other titles listed where they should be. I checked that the tracks are labeled correctly and in exactly the same way as the other tracks that do not have this problem.

    I am at a total loss about what to do, and I'd really appreciate any advice or suggestions. I use the current firmware, 2.03.31a and the songs in question are in Ogg Vorbis format.

    MM

    Thanks for your replies.

    I managed to find what may be the problem. Tracks that received corrupt tags had the names of total path with more than 256 characters. It seems that the driver internal fat32 the rocket uses vomits all over the place when the path name is too long. Before the "rocket", I got an iPod running rockbox tags with the same directory structure that I have on the "rocket", so I don't think that this restriction on the length of the path name is a limitation or requirement of the fat32 file system. Reduce the path corrected the problem with the files being unreadable.

    However, the problem with foires genres the rest. Looking at the files show that corruption, they all have a little information in tags. Most of the information is contained in the hashes I have files that identify them via musicbrainz. The limit on the total number of characters in the tags of the track includes the "rocket" label is not read or use?

  • E4200 w 2 - re1000 and still have problems with wireless coverage

    I have a big enough House, 4500 square feet, and there a lot of bricks and stucko.  I wired ethernet ports in most of the rooms.

    For my Apple TV and tower PC, PS3, I used a wired connections.

    But we have a lot of devices without wireless, 4 laptops and 3 iphones, 3 ipads so good wireless coverage is a must.  I'm not looking for a budget solution, just the best solution that I can.  I also have a wireless baby monitor and an ATT Wireless TV receiver.  I have no end of problems with wireless on my devices.

    Without a lot of research I boght a couple re1000 thought that would be the solution to my problem, but they don't really work as well as I would like.  I wish I had done my research as I think that the right solution is to have the other AP in the connection from the House to a 'hand' AP via wired connection (connection wired bridge mode?).  I could adjust only force and channel to maximize coverage for the House.

    Here is what is a must:

    One SSID in the House

    Everything must be on the same network.  I have a wired camera Foscam and use the features of the homegroup in windows.

    Taking as a basis the e4200, what other should AP I buy to connect to the main via a wired connection?

    I don't know how to close your home is to other houses, so I don't know if you might encounter interference from 2.4 ghz to your neighbors or other sources.

    I see that WAP610 is not simultaneous... only selectable.  iPhones are only 2.4 ghz

    Whatever it is, you can keep the same SSID for your entire network, but you may need to use different wireless channels.  Everything meets your criteria above.

    The only unknown is your neighbors (and other sources) Wireless interference.

    You can download inSSIDer, which will give you a better idea of what you're against, but it is not infallible.

  • Strange problem with BT Headset!

    Hello

    I have a very strange problem with BT headset.  My Z3 is model of official unlocked Docomo of SO - 01 G.  I got PlayStation Voxtube 500 BT headset BT version is THE 4.0.  This headset has been used with Nexus 5 (Android 5.1.1) without any problem and the battery last almost a week to stanby with a few minute talk time per day.  However, after not getting Z3 with Android 4.4.4, pairing with Voxtube has no problem.  Then, the battery is discharged within 4-5 hours stanby.  I tested it for 3 or 4 times, it has come down to that there must be something worng with the battery of the headset.

    So, I got with PlayStation representative claim (it is only a few months old).  Surprisingly, representative of PlayStation has all the test suggested no stanby time problem with their phones iPhone 5 or Sumsung Galaxy S5.  Then I took back recharged so its performance is very short wait duration the same as before.  So, I tested it with my iPad Mini 3 and performance return to normal standby time.

    So, it can be concluded for only problem is with the Z3. But once again with the mating with the other headset BT Jabra Tag2, stanby time is within the normal range (4-5 days).  When that happens?  I am very confused. Should I give up on PlayStation?

    Thank you for your time,

    Simply upgrade to 5.0.2 lolipop and hope this will help me on this issue.
