Maybe deleting the printer and adding it again solves the problem. Yeah, I know: it seems a Windows answer, but it solved me some printing problems in the past.

I'm having the same problem as well when I first connected my printer to my Mac. Help?

Try Printer Setup Repair and see if it helps. As it is a HP, does it use the dread HP Communications process at all? If so, that could be the source of the problem too (e.g. it pr…

Have you actually tried to use the drivers from HP for the printer? (If that link doesn't work, go to the HP home page and search the Driver download page for your printer).

This problem is caused by the HP photosmart software. To print using GIMP, simply lose the HP software, but it'll stop you using the "card reader" on the printer if that model has…

I don't have a PhotoSmart printer. I have an HP DeskJet 930. I think I might have fixed it, though.

Thank you so much for the hint. I was having trouble printing last three weeks with my laserjet 1200 connected to my new G5, with MacOs10.4.6. Simply by getting rid of the HP-fo…

OK - Good luck! Remember that the iPod needs to be connected via FW to be bootable. David.

I'm betting it doesn't boot due to some sort of driver issues.

I don't think Windows can boot from a USB/Firewire drive. I'm almost certain XP can't, maybe they've added this to Vista?

Holding down the C key at boot will hopefully boot you into the vista installer. Don't forget to take some pics!

I've got an Intel iMac and a copy of build 5270 of Vista, and I haven't figured out a way to boot yet. None of the typical ways of dealing with selecting a boot volume work: holdin…

reindeer, try holding D when the Vista disc is in the drive while the computer is booting up and see if anything happens.

Do you really think that Apple staff will be happy with you meddling with their display machines and trying to get one of them to run a competing OS?
