  • Upgrade to Snow Leopard and Time Machine

    Hello. I found this topic in an old topic, but it has been blocked so I couldn't answer. Here is a new.

    I have a fairly old MacBook Pro... mid-2007. Provided with Tiger. Upgrade to Leopard in 2010 or more. I want to now upgrade to Snow Leopard and make a complete installation where I have completely clean the existing hard drive.

    I did the Time Machine backups for about four years on my external hard drive. When I install Snow Leopard on my MBP, I can just do simple drag and drop the kind of things from my external hard drive on the hard drive of the MBP?

    For example, once I've erased the hard disk of the MBP and do a new installation of Snow Leopard, can I then connect my external hard drive, open a certain folder and something like Pages slide window of the HD to the window of the Applications on my MBP?

    Thank you!

    Drag and Drop could be a problem, because these applications and files will not be usable unless they are properly updated. It would be better to have a clean install of Snow Leopard and then use the Migration Assistant to transfer files from your Time Machine backup. Note that Snow Leopard will ship with the Apple apps so they do not need to be transferred. You can check with 3rd party developers to ensure the compatibility of their software and upgrade options.

    It is with the Migration Wizard:

    This article is useful, but a lot of your time, because he doesn't use Migration Wizard:

  • Cannot parse after upgrading to Snow Leopard - C4580

    I have the HP all in one single C4580. No problems of printing or scanning up to that I've upgraded to Snow Leopard. I can still print but I can't scan unless I have used Image Capture. The printer does not appear in the window HP all in one device selector. I did set up the wizard again but my home network says that the server has failed and will not recognize the scanner. Anyone with the same problem?

    [title edited for clarity]

    You still have the HP software for 10.5 installed.  It does not play well with 10.6.  Let's remove this way:

    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP
    Click on continue
    Highlight your device in the left pane
    Hold down the Ctrl and Opt Cmd and click on uninstall
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click on continue and let it finish

    Now run a software update.

    Then, remove and reinstall the printer in System Preferences, Print & Fax.

    You do not have the software now since Snow Leopard as well print & scan drivers built-in. scan from Preview apps or Image Capture. Scan from the front panel of the printer does not work yet.

  • 'All settings' menu inactive/gray on HPC5550 after upgrade Mac Snow Leopard

    I've just updated for Mac OS X 10.5.8 to 10.6.7 and cannot print.  I get "Printer cartridge failure" messages whenever I try to print.  I only use the black ink cartridge and let the empty color cartridge slot, which never seemed a question before.

    If you are using snow leopard and have the HP software before Snow Leopard (either from a CD not marked as compatible with 10.6 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and had the software HP on your Mac before you upgrade - even if you made a standard from the old software uninstaller or installed new software on top of it) , you must uninstall the software using the "scrubber":

    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP
    Click on continue
    Highlight your device in the left pane
    Hold down the Ctrl and Opt Cmd and click on uninstall< scrubber="">
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click on continue and let it finish

    Restart your Mac

    Now run a software update.

    Finally, download and install the "Full Featured" driver and software from the "Support & drivers" link at the top of this page.

  • J6450 will not scan since the upgrade to snow leopard

    My J6450 will not scan since the upgrade to snow leopard. I can print fine but when I try and scan is says sorry, scanner could not be initialized (Scanner not found.)

    You scan the front of the unit?  The software included in Sl does not support that.  Also note the HP Scan Pro included in the 10.5 software will not work with 10.6.  The 10.5 software and delete the print queue.  Make sure your 10.6 is update 10.6.1 and go here to download and install the HP software for 10.6 and Setup for your J6540.  You should be able to scan after that.

  • PSC 2510i AIO: NOT more than scan after upgrade to Snow Leopard

    Hello

    After upgrading to Snow Leopard, I can't find my scan feature.

    I tried to different paths:

    1. install such as proposed through the Apple software update: no scanner not found, printing is working A-OK

    2. install HP_Installer_PSC2500_v9.7.dmg: does not work, gives errors.

    Removed all and re-installed the Apple / drivers HP through software update

    I've tested the HW, works fine, can sweep on the machine itself, but it is not a solution.

    I am enough fan of this machine, 100% over the years in the home network.

    Does anyone have a suggestion?

    Appreciate your help :-)

    Thank you!

    Hey the HP team.

    Just got an update of the printer HP by Apple and yes I can see the PSC2510i
    And Scan.

    It crashed a few times, but I guess that the reports will reach the development team.

    I am happy!
    I can disconnect and stop the Windows laptop...

    AND!  not even an additional feature!

    Multiples of scanning.
    It distinguises different objects, makes life much easier.

    Thanks again

  • After upgrading to Snow Leopard 10.6.5 most of the files does not open in CS3 Rosetta, grayed out menu items

    After upgrading to Snow Leopard 10.6.5 most of the files will not open in CS3 and more menu items are gray,

    like "Photoshop" and "quit Photoshop. I have to force it to quit. Don't know what version of CS3 since 'about this Mac' is not available.

    But CS3 runs in mode of "Rosetta". I had done this years ago, my scanner would work.

    I don't remember how I managed to do run in Rosetta and don't know how to do so he could operate normally, if necessary.

    Change the name of the file or the plugin to have ~ as first character will prevent it to be loaded.

  • Mavericks upgrade to Snow Leopard

    Hello

    I have a user on creative and recently updated cloud update of Snow Leopard for the Mavericks. We noticed his æ CC started acting slow and unresponsive and finally fails or requires at least a Force Quit, and then restart.

    I can confirm us has done all the necessary Apple software upgrades as well as use creative cloud Manager to confirm that his æ is fully updated.

    Does anyone know if there is a conflict with AE CC and the Mavericks?

    Thank you in advance.

    Jordan

    Use creative cloud Manager to confirm that his æ is fully updated.

    Can you confirm for me that his computer is now running AE CC 12.2?

  • HP Officejet Pro 8000 has stopped working on the upgrade to Snow Leopard (10.6)

    Since the upgrade, despite the HP and Apple claiming that the upgrade would take care of things like new drivers, my 8000 Officejet Pro has stopped working. Of course, this could be a coincidence and something else caused the problem.

    Quite simply, the printer button will Flash. The manuals indicate it means need new paper in the tray, or there is a jam. In addition, the print utility said 'in paper '. Of course, I have no jams, and there are 40 pages of paper in the one and only the plateau.

    I deleted the printer in "Print & Fax", turned it off, unplugged the USB and then added back, twice, everything to nothing doesn't. Nothing changes. Still unable to print.

    It doesn't seem to be anything I can try. This page, "Mac OS x: installation and use of the product in Mac OS X 10.6", simply going to say that I should remove the printer and add it, which of course I did. There are no other suggestions for what I could do.

    So either 10.6 broke my ability to print, or the printer is otherwise defective and must be returned under warranty. Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    Update...

    has gone through a series of emails with HP support, during which, with all due respect, I asked me to do what I had already tried. We got to the point where we were providing for the printer to be returned under warranty. Then yesterday morning, bam, the printer works again. No explanation and no idea.

    Best regards.

  • Cannot print wireless since Snow Leopard upgrade

    I have an Office Jet all in one j6450. Since upgrading to Snow Leopard, I can't print wireless. I downloaded the new drivers. I also can I print a wireless test page so the signal is there, but I can't seem to print documents.

    Thank you very much, it followed all in good order and it worked!

  • Where can I find a downloadable update and secure (from Snow Leopard 10.6.8) for my office iMac?

    First of all, forgive me if I'm not on any computer jargon as you young people are.  And I don't know the details of the operation of the computer.  If possible, I just need simple answers or solutions to my need.  Terms like "segregation" and stuff like which are wasted on me.  I have an old desktop computer Apple iMac 2008 model.  Running Safari Version 5.1.10 (6534.59.10) - I love my Safari.  My computer and some sites that I try to access from time to time tell me that my server is obsolete.  I guess that means I need an upgrade.  About 6 months ago, I've upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 using a disc that I bought at the Apple store for some time ago.  Recently, I added all of the 6 GB of memory (live RAM) so I have enough memory to upgrade.

    I don't want to take a giant to El Capitan step and risk problems.  I know 10.7 Lion is no longer available, but perhaps Cougar 10.8 10.9 Maverick is somehow available for download.

    Download codes for 10.7 and 10.8 Mountain Lion Lion are available on the Apple Store online.

    If you need specifically Mavericks 10.9 or Yosemite 10.10, go into a physical Apple store and ask.

    Any upgrade of the operating system can cause problems. Back up your data and control your applications for compatibility first.
