Your Mac has been unable to communicate with your Apple Watch

Hello

I don't know if someone else found this situation but I am not able to activate the function "allow your Apple Watch unlock your Mac" is enabled.

All devices are on the same Wi - Fi, all connected with the same Apple ID, password enabled on the watch, but still nothing.

    How do you communicate with the Apple Watch

    Hello!

    Welcome to the Apple community. I'm not quite sure what you mean when you say "communicate" with the Apple Watch, so I'll give you a few options that can respond to your request.

    (1) the Apple Watch supports Siri, just like the iPhone and the Mac. To apply, simply say "Hey Siri" while the wrist is triggered, and your watch will respond. Alternatively, you can hold the digital Crown and Siri will be activated. As soon as Siri is activated, you can ask him questions such as "what is the weather today" or "reminder", or "Let's start a workout."

    (2) you can manually send SMS via your Apple Watch by use of Siri, or opening the messaging app. That Siri send your messages, just say 'Hey Siri, send a text < name >' and Siri will open the Messages app and wait to talk to you about your message. If you want to move the Messages app manually, press the digital Crown and will take you to the home screen. In the home screen, select the Messages app (a green icon with a word inside bubble). Any existing message log must appear, and you can type on a given message log and choose to respond.

    (3) If you want to place a phone call using your Apple Watch, you can say "Hey Siri, call < contact name >". If you have several numbers for a particular contact, Siri will ask you what number you want to call. You can also you can present a more specific request like 'Hey Siri, call < contact name >, < number >' with the number favorite is 'work' or 'House' or 'mobile' etc. So the demand go something like "Hey Siri, call Barbra, House".

    If you are still at a loss, with regard to the types of orders that Siri will accept, you can always ask. Say 'Hey Siri, what can you do?' and she will give you a list of commands that she will answer to the.

    If all goes well, I addressed your question. If not, please provide a little more information and I'll do what I can to help you.

    Good luck!

    I have a HP Officejet 6500 a Plus E710n-z.  He has in the past, but is no longer connects (by wireless) to my computer (Apple OSX 10.8.4).  It became intermittent in the last month, and then did not answer at all.  I had a growing list of items to be printed.

    I followed each step- http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02205477 .

    WiFi to each is not a problem.

    The printer has been disconnected (deleted) as the printer from the computer.  I was able to add in the part 'scanner' printer, but cannot add to the printer - it has the message "unable to communicate with the printer.

    What should I do next?

    Hi @Flash1688,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see that you are unable to communicate with the Scanner with your HP Officejet Pro 6830 on Windows 8.1. I'm happy to help you!

    If you just try to make a copy with the printer, it works? You see on the screen of the printer error messages? Copy of Documents. Also, if you lift the lid of the scanner during the copy process, you see a light come ON and the scanner bar moving?

    In the meantime, please, try the procedure described in this guide, a message 'no computer found' for HP Officejet 6810 and HP Officejet Pro 6830 e-all-in-one printerand let me know what happens!

    I hope hear from you soon!

  • Error: "unable to communicate with the TWAIN device" with brother MFC7820N

    Original title: can I connect a scanner through a switch?

    I'm trying to analyze something like I did it many times with my brother MFC7820N hung on my tablet. But recently, I replaced a 2nd router I had in my system that failed with a new Dynex switch.

    I have my internet modem and 2 computers connected to a Linksys wireless router. I have another ethernet cable connecting the router to a new switch. I have my 2 printers attached to the switch. One is a Brother HL-2700CN color laser and the other is a brother MFC7820N mutli-function. It use PaperPort to scan stuff on him, since provided on the CD with the device.

    So today I open PaperPort and click the Scan button and it appeared an error saying unable to communicate with the TWAIN device box.

    So I clicked on a doc shown in PaperPort that I had scanned a few weeks ago and I click right and select Print and printed to this MFC7820N.

    Then I come back to click on scanner again and yet again, it appears that box. So I watch and WIA-Brother MFC-7820N LAN is displayed in the Scanner marked drop-down list box. So I switched the power of the MFC and tried again and it still appeared that same box again.

    OUCH! I'm going nuts! You have any ideas?

    Hi Jeff has Davis,
     
    Method 1: Uninstall and reinstall the driver again and check if it helps fix the problem.
     
    See this article for more information:
     
    Method 2: Try the suggestion given in this article:
  • ScanJet G3110 - 'unable to communicate with the scanner' error message

    This Scanjet has worked well over the years.

    I don't remember making any changes, but now when I click on any option (for example copy or scan to email... all options) I get the error «unable to communicate with scanner» HP

    When I click on "Preferences of the Scanner", the Apple preferences page with a popup that reads:

    To use the "HP Scanjet", preferences preferences pane system must leave and reopen it.

    I click OK and system preferences change to 'Preferences system (32-bit)'

    I click on the HP icon and it opens to "no value / not connected".

    I have reset the scanner; have you checked all connections... no change.

    I put on computer.

    The scanner scans noise when it starts up.

    But when I press the "scan" button (or any button) on the scanner itself, nothing happens.

    Using OS X 10.6.7

    Any ideas?

    Hello nikhil_gupta

    The Scanjet series of scanners is of commercial products. I suggest you post in the HP Business Support forum for a better chance to find a solution, because it's the boards of HP for the consumer and there are people less familiar with this product range.

  • P1102w "unable to communicate with any wireless router using the provided SSID"

    Hi all, apologies if there is an answer to that somewhere, I took a look, and several people have had something similar, but without a clear resolution.

    I got a job p1102w successfully for about 2 years now and this week he suddenly won't print wireless. No recent changes to the network, no change to the printer, no changes to the computer.

    No luck with simple things so I reinstalled the printer (it works via USB), but when I get to the wireless network configuration steps I encountered a problem.  Automatically scan for wireless networks detects my home network, but by selecting translates "unable to communicate with any access point or wireless router using the provided SSID. The same error message occurs when you try to connect to a network wireless of my neighbors.

    Any ideas would be very appreciated.

    Isaac

    At this point, I would say that there is a problem with the card wireless in the printer.  Do you know if this printer is under warranty?

    If your printer is still under warranty, then I suggest call HP for Technical Support on this printer.

  • Questions of UPD on 4700dn printer - unable to communicate with the printer

    Hello!

    I'm testing the UPD on my laptop which has Windows 7 64 bit on my network printers all in my building. All network printers work fine except one... Color LaserJet 4700dn.

    When you use the UPD interface when you try to print, I try to use the IP address of the printer and it cannot connect. "When you use the search for network printers option, it recognizes the printer, but when I try to connect, I get the error ' unable to communicate with the printer.

    I changed the host name of the printer, changed the IP address on this subject, I can ping the printer and print using the print server, I rebooted the printer... Even got a older laptop that has Windows 7 32-bit and used the UPD 32 bits and the same symptoms occur.

    Any ideas because I hit a brick wall.

    Thank you very much!

    Looks like you can set up a standard port and print ok from a print server.  The UPD in the stream you describe will attempt to make multiple calls SNMP to determine the abilities of the printer, and those who are failing, causing the UPD to throw the error you see.

    Take a look at the network settings in the SAP.  Specifically, under Security, management of the protocols and the SNMP tab.  Watch to see if one of these parameters differ from other devices that work, like maybe SNMP is disabled on the YOA 4700n.
