Canon LBP 2900 doesn't work under Snow Leopard 10.6.3

Canon LBP 2900 doesn't work under 10.6.3.
It worked under 10.5.6, 10.5.7 and 10.5.8.
The installation process is described here http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10723997#10723997
I did the same under SL but no result.
Any suggestion?

The procedure of using the CAPT folder from a previous version of OS X was not always successful with 10.5, let alone 10.6. For those like you that did find it worked, there were many others that found the workaround did not work for them.
Version 3.05 of CAPT lists the following Canon printers as supported models.
LBP9100Cdn
LBP7200C series
LBP5300
LBP5100
LBP5050 series
LBP3500
LBP3310
LBP3300
LBP3250
LBP3150
LBP3108
LBP3100
LBP3050
LBP3018
LBP3010
LBP3000
You may have more success with trying to get this driver to work with your LPB2900. At least this version has been written for 10.6.
If this new driver does not work with the LPB2900 then another solution would be to have an old Windows XP computer connected to the LBP2900 and then use the following procedure to print to it from the Mac.

Canon 5600f scanner doesn't work with Snow Leopard

Please someone help - I made the mistake of upgrading to snow leopard. My new Canon 5600f scanner now does not work. Pop up says it has wrong driver. OK.. Downloaded EVERY Canon driver possible + the updated Navigator EX 2.0 software. Note I HAVE downloaded these files, specifically for this model of scanner, specifically for snow leopard: http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010652.asp. I have rebooted the mac about 4 times. Please, what am i doing wrong?!

Pahu,
I too upgraded to Snow Leopard last night and have been having trouble with my 5600F all day. I'm glad I can still use the scanner in the Image Capture tool, but I would like to use the MP Navigator EX as well. I downloaded:
Scanner Driver 14.8.2
ICA Driver 1.1.1
ver Solution Menu 1.4.0
MP Navigator EX 2.0.4
MP Navigator EX 2.0 Opener
and On Screen Help 1.10
The download area for the MP Navigator EX 2.0 Opener reads "In Mac OS X 10.6, you will need to set up MP Navigator EX 2.0 Opener with Image Capture before scanning using the Operation Panel or Scanner Buttons on the machine."
I'm having trouble setting up the opener in Image Capture. The scanner still scans beautifully through Image Capture, I would just like full functionality back. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Canon Printer CLC 3200 not working under Snow Leopard

After installing Snow Leopard printing on Canon CLC 3200 is no longer possible.
Even after updating to 10.6.1, reinstalling the printer and checking all TCP/IP settings, printing is still not possible. The contact to the printer is there, but the printer is stopped and cannot be activated.
Apple Support has no solution for it. You have to wait for an updated printer driver from Canon.
If you are working with Canon CLC3200 don't update your Mac to Snow Leopard!!!
Best, Andrea

Here is a solution working for the Canon CLC 3200:
Chose LPD protocol and enter "print" for the queue name.
Worked for us – hope it does for you, too!

Dictionary App doesn't work with Snow Leopard

Hey, just upgraded my Macbook from leopard to Snow leopard and now the apple dictionary app is too out dated. Where can I find an update for this app so that it'll work with snow leopard?

Not sure why the proper Dictionary didn't install with the upgrade. One option is to install it now from the disc using Pacifist.
Read Kappy's instructions for using.

Canon Lide 35 No Longer works in Snow Leopard

Here some more specific results on what happens when you try to scan with the Lide 35 in Snow Leopard.
1) The ONLY choice is to use image capture. Canon software doesn't work
2) Detect Multiple images is completely broken
3) The image size is super small. )i e, the dimensions settings don't work right
4) You have to increase the resolution to 600 to 1200 in order to "fool" Image Capture into scanning at the proper size
5) As soon as you select Ovweview a second time, it stops working and gives you a blank scan. You have to log out and back in to get it working.
6) The only "workaround" I've found is to scan the same dimensions every time at 1200 dpi and edit and save the photo in another app.
I realize the Canon Lide 35 is an older scanner, but please Apple, none of us want to buy a new scanner just because we upgraded to Snow Leopard.
I've spend an hour on the phone with Canon who tried to be very helpful. This happens on all my Snow Leopard Macs (I have three) and it seems clear that this is an Apple issue.

Hi Tee,
I can confirm what you are saying. I am running MacOS 10.6.2 on MacBook Pro and when I was trying to use my Canon LiDE 35 after installing "lide35osx7721en.dmg" and also "cstbosx5013ej4.dmg" I am still getting the error message "driver not found". The same Canon LiDE 35 still works beautifully with my PowerPC G4 under 10.4.11. - I am not sure whether there is any other software? The only oddity when installing those files I noticed was that "CNQL1208_ClassicNotSeize.kext" would not load...
I have no solution to offer at this stage other than using the old Apple... Anybody any ideas??

Sirius Internet Radio doesn't work after Snow Leopard

Sirius Internet Radio doesn't work after I installed Snow Leopard. It works on my Firefox. I emptied the cache on my Safari, but still nothing. Any solutions?

The reason why Sirius Radio online won't work with Safari anymore is because Sirius radio online is only supported by a 32-bit browser. Snow Leopard and all its applications are 64-bit. The best solution is to use firefox. If you still insist on using safari..... Go to adobe.com reinstall adobe flash player. Install/update Flip4Mac. Go to setting for Flip4Mac and check off all the options under the browser tab. Then when you go into Sirius Radio online, you will get an error message, just click okay. Then when you click a station, a quicktime player will come up and you will be able to listen to sirius online radio.

HP Laserjet 4V/MV doesn't work in Snow Leopard

I ran software update which installed new drivers for HP and Epson with OS 10.6.1, but my HP 4MV (on my network) still doesn't work (was always automatically recognized before). I've spent 2 days trying everything to get this working. If someone at HP is reading this, PLEASE...new driver for this that works!

There is nothing that we can do. The problem you are encountering is that AppleTalk is no longer present on Snow Leopard. There are many many threads here on this issue. You'll need get your device hooked up to the Network (and NO, AppleTalk does not count) to get things working.
How is your device currently connected?
Just trying to help.

Rayv Player on FoxSoccer.TV doesn't work on Snow Leopard

Since upgrading to Snow Leopard, the rayv Player for this website doesn't work. I've tried running Safari in 32-bit and also tried Firefox. At most, I get some sound, and then the browser crashes. There seems to be an issue with FlashPlayer 10.
Does anybody have a solution for me?

From the SL review at arstechnica...
"The sleeping Mac dilemma
I don't like to leave my Mac Pro turned on 24 hours a day, especially during the summer in my un-air-conditioned house. But I do want to have access to the files on my Mac when I'm elsewhere—at work, on the road, etc. It is possible to wake a sleeping Mac remotely, but doing so requires being on the same local network.
My solution has been to leave a smaller, more power-efficient laptop on at all times on the same network as my Mac Pro. To wake my Mac Pro remotely, I ssh into the laptop, then send the magic "wake up" packet to my Mac Pro. (For this to work, the "Wake for Ethernet network administrator access" checkbox must be checked in the "Energy Saver" preference pane in System Preferences.)
Snow Leopard provides a way to do this without leaving any of my computers running all day. When a Mac running Snow Leopard is put to sleep, it attempts to hand off ownership of its IP address to its router. (This only works with an AirPort Extreme base station from 2007 or later, or a Time Capsule from 2008 or later with the latest (7.4.2) firmware installed.) The router then listens for any attempt to connect to the IP address. When one occurs, it wakes up the original owner, hands back the IP address, and forwards traffic appropriately."

Aperture 2.1 Trail doesn't work on Snow Leopard

Hi just downloaded and installed the Aperture 2.1 trial version. Install goes fine, however when I try to run it I get the following error message.
"You can't use this version of the application Aperture with this version of Mac OS X."
I know there is a 2.1.4 update released August 27, but I can't download it with a trial key. The update states "This update addresses general compatibility with Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard" and I assume the Trial version is not 2.1.4 since it doesn't work.
I personally am not going to pay $200 for software I can't try before I buy. If there is any way to get the update to apply to the Trial, a Snow Leopard compatible trial version please let me know.
I find this very sloppy of Apple who I have found to be above these types of issues until now.

Hey found a 2.1.4 Trial install on Softpedia. I don't know how they got a copy that can be downloaded without a key, when Apple doesn't even provide it on their own site. Anyway the link is below if anyone else is having this issue, you will still need to get a trial key from Apple to use, but it works.

Canon pixma IP4000R will not work with Snow Leopard

After upgrading to Snow Leopard, my Canon IP4000r printer will not work. I have tried both the Canon Printer Drivers 2.3 (my printer is listed) from Apple and the latest printer driver from Canon. There are multiple problems ... the first thing I noticed is that not all of the printer options are available on the print dialog. When I tried to print, I got "fatal::internal error -9660."
It looks like both drivers I've tried so far are CUPS (which is probably why all of the printer options are not supported).
Anyone have any ideas? Other than buying a new printer ...

After upgrading to Snow Leopard, my Canon IP4000r printer will not work. I have tried both the Canon Printer Drivers 2.3 (my printer is listed) from Apple and the latest printer driver from Canon.
The driver version provided by Canon is v10.26.x while the update provided by Apple will increase the version to 10.30.3.0. The v10.26 and v10.30 drivers provide all the features that the previous v4.8.3 driver for OS X 10.5 and earlier provided. However the layout for these menus is definitely different.
Also, a lot of user who upgrade from a previous OS X may not realise that the default print dialog is in a minimised view. You need to press the disclosure triangle next to the printer name to get the expanded view.
When I tried to print, I got "fatal::internal error -9660."
I suggest you try a printer reset.
1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
2. Move your mouse over the Printers list
3. Hold down the Control button and click the mouse
4. Click "Reset printing system ..."
5. Restart your Mac
This will remove your iP4000R print queue but not the printer drivers. So you will only need to add the queue again.
It looks like both drivers I've tried so far are CUPS (which is probably why all of the printer options are not supported).
Yes they are both CUPS by name as they are both made by Canon. But this is not your issue. If you believe that a particular option is not available then please reply with what that is.

Photo Editing, Photoshop elements 4.0 doesn't work with snow leopard?

Tried reinstalling photoshop elements after upgrading to snow leopard and message came back not compatible. ? , what version is that doesn't break you wallet and can do some decent photo editing including cutting and removing parts of images, pasting, etc. thanks

The latest version, 8, can be had for around $79, and is an amazing editor for the price. If you're not familiar with it's features I suggest you visit the site and see what it can do. Here's a list of several editors that support layers for editing:
Image Editors that support the use of layers:
Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac - $80
GraphicConverter- $35
Rainbow Painter - $30
Acorn- $50
Seashore- Open Source
IMO PSE gives you more bang for the buck. If I didn't have Photoshop (given to me) I would buy it in a second. Version 8 has more features that I use than PS CS3.

Automator app made in Mavericks doesn't work in Snow Leopard

Made a simple troubleshooting app for my staff with some dialog boxes (ask for confirmation) and an app restart (killall and open commands). Saved it as an app and it works fine in Mavericks and Mountain Lion. On Snow Leopard, the app opens with the opening file animation but does nothing. It never even shows up in Activity Monitor.
Did I miss a setting somewhere or is Automator just not backwards compatible like that?

Some workflows will work well going from 10.9 backwards to earlier OS / Automator versions but there are going to be many workflows that don't work without modifications. Part of the issue will be file system arrangement as you suggested.
Another source of problems could be that the behavior of various workflow actions may change from one version of Automator to another. Several of the Address Book / Contacts related actions, for example, no longer work the same way that the did. This was true even before the name of the Address Book was changed to Contacts.

Two-Sided printouts doesn't work in Snow Leopard

Ever since I updated to Snow Leopard 10.6 I'm now unable to print two-sided prints on both a Xerox Phaser 7760GX and a Ricoh Aficio MP C4500 with Postscript interface installed. All my co-workers has the same problem and they are also running OS X 10.6.7
When I try to print and select the two-sided option, the printouts are separated on to two pages instead of one page.
What's up Apple?

Have you asked the printer manufacturers that question? Apple doesn't write their drivers for them, it just bundles the drivers in the OS.
I don't have a duplexing printer, so I can't test it.
Also, Apple isn't here to ask questions of. Just us users.

QUICBOOKS 2007 doesn't run under snow leopard

My register now says I have made deposits of $8, 456, 782.4301 AND they were made on 2/03/36. Intuit says "too bad so sad, we are going to release a patch for QB 2009 for MAC that MAY fix the problem, we won't support 2007"
Bottom line, snow leopard has been the buggiest and worst OS installation on a MAC EVER! What a joke. It's getting more like WINDOZE every day. I frankly never bought windoze updates until I had to because they were always a mess but apple was great and I never worried. This has been and continues to be a nightmare.

I wouldn't blame Apple and this is Intuit's fault. Most of Apple's partners had either confirmed their apps would work with 10.6 or have published ETAs for fixes. Intuit did neither and is apparently using the shipment of 10.6 to force people like you and I to upgrade to QB2009. (I also have QB2007). Intuit has consistently underperformed vis a vis Mac users....Intuit competitors should see this as a great opportunity. I'll not buy an Intuit product again.
Oh, and re: 10.6....I've installed this OS on three MBP, all installed without issue and users have had no problems. Total time, 2 1/2 hours. I once "upgraded" 15 PC to Vista, which took more than a week and some of the laptops were never the same again.

Malloc zone intercept doesn't work on Snow Leopard

Hi guys,
I'm facing an issue with the interception of "free" call on Snow Leopard, which perfectly works on Leopard.
Well, the code is very simple. I get a default malloc zone and set my hooks functions, instead of default ones. Inside of my hook functions I call the original ones and a bit of my code to be able to track allocations.
malloczonet *zone = mallocdefaultzone();
default_malloc = zone->malloc;
..._calloc...
default_free = zone->free;
zone->malloc = my_malloc;
zone->free = my_free;
The problem is that I get all hooks for malloc and company working, but a "free" hook is never called.
It is reproducible on all Snow Leopard machines, but, as I said, it works very well on Leopard.
I tried to debug the issue, but can't find a source code and full debug symbols of libSystem. I therefore don't yet know what the library is doing when "free" is called.
Do you have any idea on it?
Thanks a lot in advance.

The issue is solved.
Thanks to my very good friend for the hint.
In zone versions 6 or higher, there is a new member malloczone_free_definitesize, which is called instead of malloczonefree.
