Chooser problem in 9.1 ?

Can't print to my Laserwriter select 360, or make PDFs, or send faxes. When I go to do any of this it tells me to select a printer in the chooser.
When I go to do this it shows up but does not stick, however it is still creating a desktop printer icon.
All the printers and there drivers are showing up in the apple profiler, so they are there...
The computer is communicating with the printer, at least when I tell it to set up it makes all the lights flash and my other computer that is networked with it can print to it without a problem. So it is not a problem with cables or the printer itself.
Does anyone know how to fix this? I have run out of ideas.

  • Epson RX620, OS 9.2 - Chooser problem

    Using Mac OS9.2
    USB does not show on the right half of the chooser when I select Epson Photo Sytuls RX620.
    When I try to print, I get "The Stylus Photo Rx620 printer drive is not correctly selected. Please use chooser to select Stylus Photo Rx620."
    I have run Disk Doctor.
    I have downloaded and installed all the drivers available for Rx620 on Epson site.
    (Note: I also use Mac OSX 10.3.9
    Printer list did not show Rx620 until I went into preferences and deleted all com.apple.print files.)
    Could the OS 9 problem be that simple? If so, what should I delete to get USB on the right side of chooser?

    The chooser problem is an old one. First cropped up in 2002 and now reemerged. IF YOU USE SUITCASE I have a solution for you. So simple that you think that can't be true. The Suitcase extension has to load on booting before ATM does. Accomplish that by just inserting a space behind the "~" in the Suitcase extension's filename. That's all it takes.
    Happy printing

  • Chooser problem with HP PSC 1410 and HP Deskjet 5940 on Classic

    Excuse me for my bad english, I am french... !!!
    I have just bought macmini with HP DeskJet 5940 promotion. I installed internet last driver for it. Printing is OK with Mac OS 10.4.4 but doesn't work with Classic. Printer is connected by USB port. I tried with another HP printer : HP PSC 1410. It doesn't work too under Classic.
    When I try to print under Classic from SimpleText, I obtain the message : "SimpleText ne peut imprimer un autre document pour le moment. Utilisez le sélecteur pour choisir une imprimante". I translate in english : "SimpleText can't print another document for this time. Use chooser to select a printer."
    I open chooser and click on LaserWriter8 as indicated in documentation. I obtain a new message : "LaserWriter8 requiert AppleTalk. Assurez-vous que vous êtes bien connecté au réseau AppleTalk." I translate in english : "LaserWriter8 asks AppleTalk. Be sure that you are connected to AppleTalk net.". I click on OK and two new message appears : "Impossible d'ouvrir AppleTalk". I translate in englisk : "Can't open AppleTalk" and "Pour activer AppleTalk, ouvrez les préférences Réseau et cliquez sur AppleTalk". I translate : "To activate AppleTalk, open net preferences and click on AppleTalk". Evidently, that is already made !
    But it is absolutely necessary that I can use deskjet printers under Classic with my macmini which runs on Mac OS 10.4.4 !
    I turn around the problem and I don't find solution. Have you some ideas ?
    Thank you for your help !

    Pardon: je parlais Francais comme une vache espagnol et unless HP specifically says so, there is no guarantee that any modern printer will work in Classic - partly because printer manufacturers don't bother with aging software, and partly because some printer manufacturers seem not to understand that Classic over OS X deals with printers very differently from the way pure, bottable OS 9 does.
    If you have a freshly installed OS X with a freshly installed Classic 9 and the right versions of HP's drivers and utilities, it should work - but if any of those is not freshly installed, there might be third-party components interfering.
    If all-fresh software doesn't work, launch Apple's own Desktop Printer Utility and tell it to create a virtual Desktop Printer with Translator Postscript.
    Even though it doesn't actually appear on the Desktop, that will become the default printer for Classic, accessible thorugh Chooer's LaserWriter driver.
    Try again to print from SimpleText but set the dialog to Print to File, which should create a .ps file that can be dragged onto any X print queue, where it should just print! (To find an X print queue, Print from any X application and tell the Dock to Keep the icon)
    That method is not guaranteed, but it does work for most people with most printers.

  • Fille chooser problem - URGENT

    I want to create a simple JFileChooserdialog. I pass a parent object as a parameter. The problem is that the window opens only at the FIRST TIME. After that it is never dispalyed and no excepions are thrown.
    What's interesting, the parent value I pass to the JFileChooser is not null, but inside showOpenDialog() method it is null. What's going on?
    Here is my snipper of code:
    Component comp = (Component) myFrame;
    JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
    int returnVal = fc.showOpenDialog(comp);
    if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
         keyPath = fc.getSelectedFile().getAbsolutePath();
    fc = null;
    Do you have any ideas?

    Well, i try to put it simpler.
    I kave a class in which I want to show a vary simple opendialog. My code looks like that:
    Component comp = (Component) aFrame();
    JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
    int returnVal = fc.showOpenDialog(comp);
    if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
         keyPath = fc.getSelectedFile().getAbsolutePath();
    The problem is, that this doesn't work: the dialog is never opened when i use java 1.4 and opened only the first time when i use java 1.5 (after the first time the jfilechooser doesn't appear).
    I tried to debug the code and the comp object IS NOT NULL. But when I go step into the showOpenDialog() method in class JFileChooser, it turns out that parent parameter (that is my comp object) has null value. It means that value of comp frame is somewhere lost.
    It wouldn't be big tragedy to me, if the openDialog opened. But it is not, it does not appear at all and no exception is thrown (i checked it with try catch). It's quite strange, because JFileChooser api says that I can simply invoke the openDialog with null parameter.
    I hope you now understand better my problem.

  • Audigy 2 ZS on Vista .. no 5.1 sound i can't choose speak

    Hi folks,
    the headline says everything.
    I got the newest Vista 32 bit drivers installed and still i can't choose any speakers in the creative audio console. The dropdown-list is completely empty.
    I can only hear stereo sound. When i choose 5. in the *windows* audio menu, only the subwoofer and the left and right speaker works. Not the center and not the rear speakers.
    Am i doing anything wrong or does the beta Audigy2 ZS driver simply doesn't support 5. sound?
    Greetings,
    Frank

    thanks for the quick reply...
    i tried everything, but it's not working.
    I've re-installed the drivers a dozen times, but still
    i can't choose any speaker setup in the creative audio console.
    Also, in Windows, when i test the 5. speakers, i only
    hear sounds from the front speakers, not the rear speakers and the center. When I connect the rear speakers to the position of the front speakers, only the rear speakers are acti've, so the cable setup is correct and the rear speakers are intact.
    this is driving me crazy. Maybe because it's not a vista clean install? I updated it from XP...
    Anyone else the speaker-choosing problem?

  • HT201272 I cannot view a movie I rented on iTunes.  I have gone through all the troubleshooting and have reset my computer with no luck.  My account had been debited and when I go to the movie's site, the price for the rental had increased. Help please!

    I recently downloaded "Inequalirt For All," a movie by Robert Reich.  I loaded $20 onto my iTunes account and there was a special where I could rent the movie for $0.99.  I rented the movie but have not been able to download and play it.  The error message says that there was a problem with my download even though it charged my account.  I have gone through the troubleshooting steps and have reset my computer.  The rental does not show up on my iPad or iPhone either.  I would like to watch this movie!  Please help!  Thank you!
