Printing since updates causes all apps to crash

Since the last round of updates from Apple, including the EFi firmware update, I am unable to print at all.
I have two printers, neither of which will print, I dont even get the print box come up before the applications "Unexpectedly quit".
I am using an Epson R1800 printer and a HP Laserjet 1018, the latter of which I know doesn't work with OSX natively but using a 3rd party driver always has.
I have tried running the Disk Utility to repair permissions, and also run the reset printer option, followed by a reboot and then added the printers again. Still no joy. I have also tried these steps but only added one printer at a time and still the apps crash.
Has anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
Paul

Try downloading the 10.4.10 Combination Updater from Apple and re-update.

  • 10.6.5 Update causing QT apps to crash

    I think the 10.6.5 update is causing my Nokia QT apps to crash with the following message:
    Exception Type: EXCBADACCESS (SIGSEGV)
    Exception Codes: KERNINVALIDADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000
    Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread
    plus a long list of other info. I did a file permissions repair, a disk repair, and reinstalled the 10.6.5 update manually, but the problem is still not fixed. Anybody have any ideas?

    Can't help with the CUPS issue, since it's not occurring here. If you want to report this issue to Apple's engineering, send a bug report or an enhancement request via its Bug Reporter system. To do this, join the Mac Developer Program—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report or enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.
    I will register for the developer program tomorrow. Do you know someone who knows about CUPS?, it might be helpful to sort this problem out. Should I take the sledge hammer approach and do a clean reinstall for OSX? Also there's a chance that this problem might be related to Apple portables only, since the other user is having the same issue that I do in a MacBook Pro as well but his MacBook is the 17" inch one but still there might be one common denominator here.
    I really hope this thread gets seen by more users in this forum, to see if more information surfaces about this problem.
    Anyways, thank you for your assistance.

  • Recent Update causes my App to crash. What should I do?

    Recent update causes my Adobe Revel App to crash. What can I do?

    Are you using ios? Is your app crashing or not installing an update?
    There is an issue that the Revel version 2.3.2 on iOS does not seem to install.  We are working with Apple to resolve it as quickly as possible. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this is causing you. In the mean time, you can still access your photos on adoberevel.com from a browser and from our mac, win8, and android apps.

  • 4.2.7 upgrade causing all apps to crash as well.  Anyone else?

    Just upgraded to 4.2.7.  All apps purchased or free crash upon launch.

    When I signed on to Itunes on my computer to synchronize my IPhone Apps a message came up asking me to "Authorize this computer or all apps will be deleted" or something to that effect.  I authorized by entering my MacBookPro (MBP) password.  Once I did that all apps sync'd and all IPhone apps then worked.  It only took a few minutes. 
    Originally when I tried to sync it came up with a message saying it could not sync the paid apps and I might lose them if I tried.  Apparently this was because the MacBook was not authorized (and therefore legal) to sync.
    I don't know why the ugrade screwed up all the apps but syncing through ITunes restored them.
    I'm not a newbie to Macs but I am to ITunes, IPhones and MacBookPros so I am learning as I go.
    I discovered all this with a little trial and error.  Hope it works for you.

  • IOS4 update causes iPod app to crash

    The iPod application crashes when I try to start it.

    I've had ios4.0 for awhile now and this never happened. Last night I downloaded a new song straight to my iphone (first one straight to my phone since the update) and now my ipod does what you're all saying it does.
    My problem is I won't be able to get to my itunes laptop for 10 days. Will this still work if I download itunes to my work laptop and then just plug it into that? Or will this require a full sync? I don't want to sync my phone to my work laptop.
    Also, if I did do that, would it be easy to sync it back to my home laptop and erase everything off my work laptop?

  • Since updating to iOS 7 iTunes crashes and will not load on my 4s

    Since updating to iOS 7 iTunes crashes and will not load on my 4s

    I tried resetting to factory and that worked for a couple of hour then I ended up with iTunes crashing again. So I logged out and logged back in and so far so good. This has kept me working for 3 days now so I won't guarantee a fix but it seems to have worked.
    Go to Settings->iTunes & App Store click on your login email and select logout. I closed all of my open apps at this time and restarted my phone which was probably an overabundance of caution, but I wanted to ensure any temporary files were gone. Log back in and hopefully all will work for you.
    Good luck.

  • RH8 causing other apps to crash?

    Hello -
    I have a colleague (working in another office, so I can't really see this problem first hand) who is trying to install RH8 on a Win7/32 machine (new install, not an upgrade). A member of her IT dept is performing the install.
    After the installation of the app and patches is finished, RH seems to work more or less normally (she's new to RH, so her sense of "normal" is rather limited at this stage).  The problem is that other applications lock up and crash (she mentioned MS Office apps in particular, but that could be because those are the ones she tends to use the most).
    After un-installing RH, the other apps no longer crash.
    I've recommended re-installing but skipping the "RoboHelp for Word" piece, but I can't think of anything else.
    I'm just wondering if anyone else has seen a similar situation? I've found other threads that deal with RH crashing or the RH install failing, but I couldn't find any in which RH caused other apps to crash.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Hmm...I posted a reply via email, but it isn't showing up, so I'm pasting it in.
    Hi, Rick -
    Thanks for the suggestions. Like some of the other threads I've found, these seem to deal mainly with RH crashes rather than other apps. But your first link possibly has some overlap as the menu issue it describes also pops up in a thread I found:
    "RoboHelp 8 crashes on Windows 7"
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2955493#2955493
    This thread includes a scenario in which Outlook and other apps are failing. Additionally, some users were having RH crashes related to the menu bug. Some users found relief by uninstalling source control, others did not. Finally, An Adobe employee posted a fix that corrects issues related to Oleacc.dll which helped some users.
    To be thorough, I'll mention that the problems are occurring on a laptop (another thread traced RH crashes to a BioMetric service running on their laptop). And my colleague has the FoxIt PDF utility installed (I don't think this should be the issue here, but perhaps worth a mention.)
    I'm going to suggest that they try:
    1a. Check the registry to ensure traces of the previous RH install are gone.
    1b. Reinstall but omit source control and RH for Word (I think you can skip these during install?  I'm no longer allowed to to perform my own installs, so I'm less familiar with the process than I once was.)
    2. Ensure patches are installed (version should be 8.02.208)
    3. If that doesn't work, try the Oleacc.dll fix.
    4. If that doesn't work, try another Win7/32 machine (preferably non-laptop).
    5. If all is well on the other machine, I guess it is time to start looking at which non-essential services might be causing a conflict.
    Regards,
    Dave

  • Importing photos to my ipad 2 on iOS 4.3.2 using camera connection kit causes photo app to crash

    Importing photos to my ipad 2 on iOS 4.3.2 using camera connection kit causes photo app to crash. Tried importing photo from an iPhone 4/ Panasonic DMC-FX50 via USB and SD card but without success. However, importing video from a Flip Mino HD is ok. Can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong

    Have you tried a reset by holding the power and home buttons for ten seconds until the apple appears?
    Since it's multiple different import devices not working with the CCK, it appears to be on the iPad side...
    If the reset doesn't help, try a restore from within iTunes on the computer.

    Do you get an error message? If so, what does it say?
    Do you get a Blue Screen?
    Does something else happen?

  • Printing causes ALL apps to give "Not Responding " error

    After installing the recent round of Apple software updates ( iweb, pages, numbers, iphoto, etc) anytime I try to print from any application it causes the app to go into not responding mode..... the print diolog box never appears. If I force quit the app, restart it and then print everything is fine.... for awhile... then it starts all over again for each app.... any ideas?

    Your probably have a permissions problem. Open Disk Utility and run Repair Disk Permissions.
    If that doesn't help, open the Printer Setup Utility, click on the application menu and select Reset Printing System. Close Disk Utility and add your printer again. Note that you may have to run your driver installer again.

  • Itunes crashes after updating apps - auto update of all apps doesn't work

    hi!
    i just upgraded to the new itunes 9.0.3 for WinXP and still have the same two problems. iphone is also on OS 3.1.3
    1.) when there are more iphone apps to update i try to use the update all button, but i nearly never work - everytime an error message pops up (something like unexpected error try again later) and i need to update all the apps manually
    2.) after manual update i switch to the iphone tab of itunes. when i now change to the programs app, itunes either freezes or crahses instantly.
    when i load it up again i have some ghosts in my programs folder in itunes - all the apps that were updated have a second, grey icon. i need to delete all of them manually.
    this is happening in 90% of all app-update procedures - what's the problem here?
    mario

    Well, b noir, some folks have to use that "workround" as standard operating procedure.
    If it persists, Darth, I suggest you contact Apple about it....the more folks who bring this to their attention, the more likely something will be done about it.
    itunes menu > help > provide itunes feedback
    I don't have much advice about the crashing/freezing when you go to the apps tab of the iphone, other than not to sync when you're in a hurry.
    This has also been reported. Several folks said if they left it alone (for what seemed like hours) the tab finally displayed. Seems itunes is having problems drawing all the apps icons, since there is no list view for the iphone. That problem has also been seen when a lot of movies were getting synced and going to the iphone's movies tab - it takes itunes forever to draw the first frame of the movie.
    It was also seen in v7 when the apps windows (on the PC, not the iphone) only had the grid view. A later release made it so apps could be shown in list and cover flow.
