Where are drivers stored?

Hey, I've just bought a new Canon MP500 and I have it connected to my home Windows computer. Now, i have an iBook G3 with OSX 10.4 on it, and I have the two computers networked using AirPort. I want to be abke to print straight from the laptop, but I dont know how, anyone have any ideas? When I go to the Printers and Fax section in System Preferences and I search for printers it finds the printer, but when i try to print...it says it's printed but it hasn't done anything (the computer says its printed, not the printer).
When I'm setting it up though, it says the model is Generic PostScript Printer.
The only idea I have is that if I can find the drivers, then i can select them for the model...maybe. I just don;t know where the drivers are stored (I have already installled them) so, if anyone can help, i would appreciate it greatly.
Thanks,
Jason.

Hello Jason,
The driver for the MP500 will be located in Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinter however it is designed for a direct USB connection. Sharing the printer via the Windows PC won't permit the driver application to see the printers availability, which the application requires to load its files. But a direct connection to the iBook will autofill the Printer Browser >Print Using field with Canon IJ Printer.
You mentioned a wirless connection in your post. Does your wireless hub have a USB printer port (I wasn't sure from you post if you had an Airport Extreme/Express or if you had another brand of wireless and are just using Airport to connect)? If it does provide the option to connect a printer then it would be best to share it via this connection, as it will allow the driver to see the printer correctly.
If it doesn't have the USB option then you will need to look at getting an application loaded on the iBook to connect to the Windows share as you cannot use the Generic PS driver; the MP500 is not a PS printer. Printfab appears to be the answer for some users so check out their site (www.printfab.net).

Paul

Where are passwords stored on my hard drive, can I access them, alter them

Where are passwords stored on my hard drive/ folder, can I access them and alter them. Can I add passwords to that file/ folder.

Using the Saved Password Editor may be overkill for most users. The quickest way to manipulate saved passwords in Firefox is on the menu bar go to:
Tools -> Options -> Security -> Saved Passwords -> Show Passwords

Where are Applets stored in WinNT/IE5.5

Hi Folks,
A client is receiving an error saying (not exact)

I have reinstalled IE 5.5 but the error remains.
How can I reinstall Java, and/or the Applet.

Before you reinstall your JRE/JVM have you tried it in other browsers such as Mozilla, Netscape Navigator, Opera, or others? IExp has taken a giant leap BACKWARDS (IMO) in that it doesn't ship the latest JVM, so it's probably just a browser issue. If its your own applet that you are trying to load, if it works in the appletviewer then there's nothing wrong with your JVM.

When I back up my musical files where are they stored?

I got a nano a couple of years ago and put all my albums on it (synced through i-tunes). I hadn't used my nano for a few months and when I went back to it my library seemed to have been replaced.......is it possible that my teenage son overwrote the nano?. Where are my files actually backed up - would it be on the laptop I used during the backup process (even though I was signed on to I-tunes at the time) or are they in fact backed up remotely through the I-tunes site.
It is all so confusing - and frustrating.
I searched for my song library on my Click-free back up device but it does not seem to have stored the songs.....just stored the link to I-tunes.
Could somebody direct me on how to solve my problem.
cheers

Your music should be in your iTunes library on your computer, and can be synced back to your nano as you did originally. Have you opened iTunes and clicked on Music to see if your music is still there?

HT201077 I am a new iphone 5 user and set it up to use icloud to store pictures, etc. I set up my home computer afterwards, but only some pictures are on the icloud. How do I view the rest of my pictures on my home computer? Where are they stored?

Only some of my pictures are on iCloud that are currently stored on my phone. Where are the others? Why aren't all the pictures from my iPhone showing in the iCloud? I can't find the pictures I saved from my ipodtouch, either....

Where are services stored in Tiger?

When I drag down an application's menu, particularly Finder, I see a list of 31 services (in some applications some services are greyed out). Many are for third party applications I rarely use. I have looked in:
~/Library/Services --does not exist
/System/Library/Services --has a couple of Apple system services but there's a lot more such as Script Editor which are not there.
/Library/Services --contains a single third party service
Where were services stored in Tiger OS and how do I remove ones I am not likely to use such as ClamXAV? I poked around the insides of an application package or two and didn't see them listed there (at least not obviously).

I still don't know where they are stored, some web site had mention of launchd. but I did find this:
ServicesScrubber - http://manytricks.com/servicescrubber/ - manage Finder Services in pre-OSX10.6 (free)
I kind of suspect services are hidden in the applications themselves, probably under some cryptic identifier. I have a few instances of multiple copies of an application on my computer and I noticed when using ServiceScrubber (SS) it sometimes flagged multiple occurrences of a service. In addition when I ran SS it took a bit of time to scan for services which makes me suspect it was doing a general drive scan of my multiple drives (some extra application copies are on different drives) rather than taking a look at just one or two targeted Services folders.
It seems Apple made services a lot more up-front and manageable post Leopard (kind of a very strange thing for Apple to do given its post-Tiger trend towards its current mother-knows-best attitude). There was mention of a "Services Manager" utility that I saw mentioned on a site dating from 2003 which suggested it was a very early utility but I could only find solid mention of it in a Mountain Lion or something version. It seems it wasn't a very well advertised utility (kind of like all the goodies tucked away in Core Services folder) and was maybe something you had to download specially, and has now vanished for good into the dark pits of edgesuite.

Where are versions stored in Bridge\Adobe Drive?

We are currently working with CQ5 \ Bridge 5 \ Drive 3. Lets say I have video file inside CQ and I want to change the version with Bridge. The new video file is a lot smaller, say 30megs less. I copy the new old file over using Bridge and add it as a version. I can now revert back to the old version if I want to or just use the new one. The question is where is the larger file stored? I don't see it in the DAM any more, only see the new smaller file however. If I check the actual file inside the var\dam in CQ I can see variations but I don't know if these are the actual files.
What I'm getting at is that if I need to replace say 400 larger video files with smaller ones are the large ones still stored some place on the CQ server and would I manual have to delete them? I just need to know where those extra files are stored.
Thanks!

Thanks for the help. I was unable to find the "show package content" option inside the windows version of Bridge. For whatever reason it only seems to be a Mac option.
Omke Oudeman wrote:
The only file there is the newer version. So, that all comes back to my original quesiton what happens to the original file? Where is it stored. Is it cached some place on the CQ server and I need to delete the original from the versions?
I'm afraid I don't have an answer for that. Don't know how CQ works but in general creating a new and smaller version should leave the original untouched.
But I come to think of it as same behavior as in Lightroom, Aperture or iPhoto that uses a library structure.
Don't know if you are on Mac or Windows. But on a Mac you can select this library file that itself shows only the icon (mostly in default picture or movie folder). But if used with large amount of files it can grow to quit a size. Using right mouse click gives the option to show package content and that reveals several folders with amongst them an original or master folder that contains the originals. (if you find them don't move them to other locations but copy, otherwise you can loose the functionality in CQ
Hope this helps you on the right track.

I need to know where are cookie files stored, so I can study what is inside them(cookiefile).

Hi pasmark,
You should take a look at the article [[Deleting cookies]]. It will show you how to view, manage, and delete cookies in Firefox.

User Decision with Note - Where are comments stored?

We are interested in using the "UserDecisionNote" property in our XML file for a User Decision workitem. (This allows a comments text box when a user clicks accept/reject for example)
How and where are these commens stored? As an attachment?
Thanks,
Matt

Sorry, I should have stated what our goals were. We currently capture comments with an activity step right after a user decision step. This happens as an immediate popup/dialog because of synchronous dialog chains in SBWP. We may then put the comments in a subsequent email step, subsequent workitem text, or custom table.
You cannot do synchronous dialog in Universal Worklist. So, we were investigating UserDecisionWithNote property of XML file for task. However, it appears the comments are stored as an attachment and not passed as text back to Task/WF (which I'm hoping someone on this forum can confirm). If they cannot be passed back as text and are indeed stored as an attachment, then in theory we need a way to get the comments out of the attachment. I'm not aware if anything allows us to parse attachments, etc.

Where are the settings of SQL Developer stored?
Is this a folder, an *.ini file or the Registry?
If it is a folder: Can I change the location of the folder?
If yes: Where exactly?
How can I otherwise export/save settings otherwise?
Peter

In your home directory will be created a path like ...\SQL Developer\system1.5.4.59.40
There SQL developer stores the local data.
You can change this path (here ...my_options/system) with th following line in the sqldeveloper.conf, located in path ...\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin:
# This is to enforce storing of configuration information in the "/my_options/system"
# subfolder I have created in the SQL-Developer installation directory (instead
# of in the "C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\SQL Developer"),
# so that SQL-Developer installation directory can be just copied to another
# location (e.g. a stick) and along with the configuration information.
AddVMOption -Dide.user.dir=../../my_options/system
Thanks to Juri W. for this solution!
Before changing the path you should save your connection and custom report - settings via right click -> export in the connection and custom report view, I had to reimport these settings after movimg my directory.

Where are passwords stored for Safari websites

I thought the place was the Keychain, but where else is are passwords stored?
I have jsut done a complete reset of the keychain from keychain Access, and the passwords page shows empty
Yet when I go to certain websites, I still get logged in automatically.
So where are these other passwords stored?

HI,
The usernames and passwords are stored in the Keychain Access application but only if you have the Safari Preferences set up to do so.
With Safari open, from the Menu Bar, click Safari / Preferences and select the AutoFill tab.
Make sure Usernames and Passwords is selected.
From the Finder Help Viewer...
When you set up a user account in Mac OS X using the Accounts preferences pane, a keychain with the same password is automatically created the first time you log in to the computer. This keychain is the default keychain. When you create passwords for servers or applications, the passwords are added to this keychain.
You may want to create an additional keychain for personal use that isn’t automatically unlocked when you log in to your user account. For example, you can create a “top secret” keychain to store notes, financial information, and any other items you want to store securely.
To create a keychain:
Open Keychain Access, located in the Utilites folder in the Applications folder.
Open Keychain Access
Choose File > New Keychain.
Type a name for the keychain, and then click Create.
Type a password for the keychain, and then type it again in the Verify field.
For help choosing a good password, click the key button to the right of the Password field.

Where are attachments stored in oracle apps

In Oracle Apps, there is a facility to attach some documents, images etc to person record. The details of these attachments are stored in fnd_attached_documents. But where is the actual document stored in Unix Box?
Thanks,

Hi user;
Please check :

Where are iBooks stored on the new Mavericks OS?

I was trying to find where Apple is storing the iBooks on Mavericks. I knew where it was before Mavericks. I download a lot of books and pdfs from the Internet that I manually add to iBooks and I would like to know where they are being stored. I am trying to get my wife's mac with the same books and mine. Right now it is missing a few. It would be easier to just find where they are stored and copy them than for me to go to all ot these websites and redownload everything.

Creating an OS X-style "alias" is not enough. I haven't tried the following solution (and I won't do it myself as my HDD is big enough, sorry), but the correct way to do this kind of jobs on OS X is to create a "symlink", or "symbolic link", which is a UNIX-style alias (read more about it on Wikipedia if you'd like to). To put it short, you type/paste the following commands into Terminal.app, one at a time (you will be making changes to your system files and you will be prompted for your admin password, which is pretty dangerous if you don't understand the mechanisms—remember to quit iBooks.app first, make backups, and be prepared for any damages):
sudo mv "~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks" "/Volumes/EXTERNAL DRIVE/PATH TO IBOOKS FOLDER";
sudo ln -s "/Volumes/EXTERNAL DRIVE/PATH TO IBOOKS" "~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks";
You should change "EXTERNAL DRIVE" to the name of your drive, and replace "PATH TO IBOOKS" with the path you want to store iBooks documents on your external drive. For instance, replacing "PATH TO IBOOKS" with "iBooks" simply creates a directory named "iBooks" under the root directory of your external drive with the iBooks data. Note that after doing this you won't be able to properly use iBooks without connecting the external drive.
This might or might not work, but I hope this helps.
(If this doesn't work, recover to the original state by quitting iBooks.app first, and type/paste the following into Terminal (you might again be prompted for your admin password):
sudo rm -rf "~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks";
sudo mv "/Volumes/EXTERNAL DRIVE/PATH TO IBOOKS FOLDER" "~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks";
This will most likely recover your original working state of iBooks.)

WHERE ARE TEMPLATES STORED ON MAC

Where are Captivate templates stored on Macs? I have an ongoing issue that still isn't resolved i.e. I can't access captivate after installing it and I'm wondering if this may be connected. I cannot find any templates on my Mac for captivate, when I try and open a new project 'From Template' it simply opens the my documents folder and even though I've looked for a '.cptl' I cannot find any.
Am I being simple or should there be some file in this format somewhere on my hard drive if Captivate has installed properly
Any help on this and of course my original posting would be greatly appreciated
Kind regards
Martyn

I have not found any .cptl files installed on my Mac. I did create one that I had someone helping me use. Unfortunately, she keep saving it as a template and in doing such, create a bigger mess down the road.
The issues I had with using them created such 'challenges' i have steered away from using them. The potential for goodness was there, but it made more work for me in the long run.
The template made 'ghost' slides in our projects and were a pain to find to remove. I basically looked for images or video in the library that had duplicates and then it deleted it from the library. In doing such, it showed the template slide. I was then able to hit the delete key to remove it. And then 50 or so others. Doing this, it dropped the Captivate file down to a third of the size since I was able to finally get rid of all the hidden stuff.
