OS X Mavericks :: Wireless Printer Not Recognized By IMac
Jun 3, 2014
Suddenly, my HP Photosmart 7525 isn't recognized by my (wife's) iMac. Ny iMac prints to it wirelessly just fine. I downloaded the printer driver (several time), loaded it and the iMac reverted to the HP Utility to finalized the process. The utility couldn't recognized the "device" to finish off the driver. Same thing when I loaded the Photosmart 6525 (my printer). The iMac apparently isn't loading the drivers. It worked fine a day or two ago, now, nada. WiFi works fine thru the AirPort/TimeCapsule module/router. The printer wifi works with other computers.Â

I have a brand new iMac. But I can't print because it won't find my HP photosmart wireless printer (B110 series) My old Macbook pro 10.6.8 has no problem. I've tried switching on and off etc all to no avail. When I click to add a printer, nothing is found. The only thing that I've not tried is connecting with an ethernet cable, but I shouldn't have to. The printer is next to the computer.

IMac, running Mavericks, connected to a wireless network. Using a Brother MFC-J6710 printer, connected wirelessly.
Recently moved printer and computer and am connected wirelessly. This worked intermittently. I started over, reset the wireless on the printer, and got a network report that says that the printer is connected to the wireless network.
On my Mac, I have reinstalled the Cups driver, Twain driver, and wireless setup wizard. When I go into the System Preferences>Printers, and try to add the printer, the printer does not show up in the list, so there is no evidence of the printer on my Mac. Similarly, I cannot see this printer on the wireless network from my IPhone either.

I've a Macrbook Pro running Mavericks. My printer is an HP C6180. Prior to upgrading to Mavericks from Lion, I had no issues printing wirelessly. I upgraded to Mavericks and I'm unable to print to the printer through wireless. If I connect the printer to the Macbook via USB it works fine. I connected it through USB and ran Software Update. An update for the HP driver was found and installed. I'm still unable to print wirelessly. Both Macbook Pro and printer are on the same wireless network. Nothing has changed with the wireless network. The only thing new is the upgrade to Mavericks from Lion.Â
I found a similar post Unable to Connect to Printer HP Photosmart C6180 which indicated deleting the /Library/Printers/hp folder, restarting, and then reinstalling the the drivers using software update worked. I did that as well with no luck.Â
When I try to add the printer it's just not in the list of printers available. Â

I've got a 128 gb usb 3.0 stick from "platinet". I could normally use it for some time but didn't need it during the last months. It was carefully transported now and then but mostly packed away, so it's possible but unlikely that it's damaged. Â
Yesterday I wanted to use it again and it got recognized on my iMac (OS X, 10.9.4, iMac mid 2007) for only some seconds, then the message appeared that it was not removed correctly. After that, the usb stick wasn't detected anymore on neither my iMac nor two MacBook Airs (also 10.9.4)Â that we've tried. I haven't tested it on a Windows computer yet.Â
Disk utility doesn't detect the device either but it can be found with "about my Mac" --> "system report" --> "USB"Â
I do not care so much about the data stored on it but I would like to get it to work again and not to throw it away.... Is there anything I can do?

My Mac and HP wireless printer have stopped communicating. My Mac says the printer is not connected to the network but the printer says it is. I am running 10.9.4 on my Mac. They worked fine for 3 years then they just stopped. I have reset everything on the printer and gone through all the wireless checks on my Mac. The only thing I have seen is one screen said the address was wrong, but that does not make sense since they work in the same network.

I have OSX 10.6 installed and I currently have my broadband connected by Ethernet connection. Airport seems to connect to my wireless router even though this is plugged in. HPSETUP appears as a device in the WI-FI drop down, however to print I need to select this from the dropdown. Can my iMac's wifi connect to this by default rather than my broadband connection?

I just bought an iMac. my husband bought a Dell XPS 2730. Of course, we discovered that we could not both connect to our old printer without some very technical stuff beyond our ken. So we bought a new wifi direct Brother printer,I can't even see the printer from my iMac. I have downloaded the latest drivers for it from Apple. The printer is all set up and can see my iMac.Â

I got a new HP wireless printer, and the mac suggested setting it up with the USB first, and then disconnecting once it was configured. I did all that.The mac asked to choose a wireless network for the printer, I did. Then the set up CD asked me to add a printer to the qeue from system preferences from the menu- when I clicked my printer was already added. None the less I followed the direction, and then got the message "You already have a similar printer set up, would you like to add this too?" I clicked YES, and then continue.
When I clicked on continue, the set up cd (or mac) told me that I had NOT set up a printer from the Queue (sorry about spelling), even though I had. So when I clicked continue, it told me the printer was not recognized in the wireless network, and now I'm stuck with plugging it in the usb. Please I know this sounds confusing, but why is this happening and what do I do to get the mac to recognize my printer? Apparently its not.My wireless signal is fine, I checked.

I got a new MacBook Pro with 10.7 (updated to 10.7.3 now). I'm running the printer through Airport Express's USB.It was working fine, but at some point, I'd get the interminable "Finding printer". I could be misremembering though,and maybe it never worked with 10.7, though I think it did!
I tried to deselect the printer driver and re-select. I stupidly deleted the driver (or perhaps just removed it from the Print & Scan window? and now I can't get it back again (via the HP site). The HP site maintains that the driver comes with 10.6 and I assume the same works with 10.7 -- is this a correct assumption.

My Brother HL-3040CN printer only has an ethernet connector for network printing (as well as a usb port). If I wish to print wirelessly is there an adaptor or a wireless hub that I can plug it into with the cable?
I'm asking this because I've read the iPad doesn't have any means of connecting it to a printer with a cable. I won't buy an iPad now but maybe next year.
EDIT: Would an Airport Express do the job?

So I've set up (or tried to anyways) a network between my MacBook Pro & iMac through a Time Capsule. My iMac is connected through a cable and the laptop is wireless. The printer is connected to the USB port on the T.C.
Here's the scoop, I can connect both computers wirelessly on the network no problem but the printer is not recognised by the iMac whatsoever. Now I know I could probably disconnect the cable on the iMac and it would probably recognise the printer but is there a way to fix this issue and leave it connected by the cable?
Both computers back up to the TC w/o issue, I don't see why the TC cannot facilitate printing via a cable since it obviously communicates to the computer w/ Time Machine. Is there a setting to fix this? I have to admit I'm kinda new to setting up networks and working w/ them.

I purchased a new iMac a month ago. Often, the keyboard just stops working and the computer has to be restarted for the keyboard to work again. Another problem: Unless I plug my printer in with a USB, the Mac does not pick it up. The printer is a fairly new HP Officejet J5780.

I have an Epson NX 510 printer that I have been able to print on easily up until a few weeks ago. I have upgraded my Macbook Pro to OS X Lion so I got new printer software and still my computer wouldn't recognize the printer all the time. Sometimes I can print and sometimes I can't. What can I do?

I am using Windows 7 with boocamp. Just suddenly without changing anything windows 7 stopped recognizing my battery, and is unable to connect wireless. It just gives me an unable to connect error, no more information is given. I found someone on an other forum with exactly the same problem. [URL].

So, I got the Polycarbonate Macbook , Parallels 5, and Windows 7 Home Premium. I installed windows on bootcamp and had parallels use the partition for windows and I got it all working, all the drivers on Windows are great, except the wifi. It's not even saying I've got a wireless card installed, it won't recognize that I have one in my Mac. But when I use parallels and when I boot it as a regular Mac, it works great. I've looked around and haven't found an answer to this? Anyone found a solution or could help?

So I've concluded that the reason my wireless keyboard is not registering the correct keystrokes on my Macbook Pro is due to the fact that Snow Leopard sees it as the OLD white wireless keyboard instead of the new aluminum one. Is there any way to ensure that it sees the keyboard as the aluminum one rather than the white one every time I hook it up?
My main concern is that the function keys don't do the correct thing. I've tried remapping them (but can't control the volume ones) and have tried using the checkbox that requires a push of the fn key. Trouble is, since the white wireless keyboards don't have an fn key, it won't recognize it as such on my aluminum.
how to make the computer see the keyboard correctly?

I am trying to rip my Audio CD's onto my Mac, but I am not able to do that. These CD's were burnt by me when I had the OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion. But when I insert these CD's into my Mac now, they say that it's a blank CD. I'd read an article on Cnet.com that you cannot read the CD's which were burnt in an older OS when you insert the CD when you upgraded to a new OS. They said that you can also try repeatedly inserting and ejecting the CD's.

I have used a Samsung HX 1Tb external hard drive under OSX Snow Leopard with absolutely no problem. Since I upgraded to the free (improved?!?) OSX Mavericks my Macbook Pro cannot "see" my hard drive. All I get when I plug it in is the following message -
my MacBook thinks that the hard drive is formatted for windows - but why should it work OK under Snow Leopard but not with Mavericks? I don't want to simply reformat the external drive because I'll lose all the files stored on it.Is there suitable software/Apps that I can use to let my Mac access this external hard drive.Incidentally my partners new Macbook Air can still read this hard drive.Â

Since upgrading to Maverick 10.9.3 my Photoshop Layer Style icon (.asl files) has disappeared and there is only a generic white piece of paper instead.
The other icons for Actions and Brushes are there so I'm wondering why the .asl icon is not appearing.

I needed to change my backup volume's name. Now it's not recognized by TimeMachine any more. It seems I can only choose this volume again AND delete older backups, which I do NOT want.Â
How can I just continue on this volume with its new name?

Could anyone recommend me a good wireless printer that is Mac and PC compatible?
And I know iOS 4.2 isn't out yet, but I'm guessing any wireless printer that works with Mac will also work with "AirPrint"?

I'm a genealogist and digital scrapper. I need something that is going to allow me to easily scan my photos. Is there a quality all-in-one wireless printer out there that works seamlessly with the Mac and has no problems with scanning? (my previous printer would do everything but scan from my Mac)
