Windows Vista Bonjour error "You do not have sufficient access..."

My Windows Vista laptop recognizes my HP PSC 1310 printer connected as a USB printer with Airport Extreme. It even has the correct driver. When i go to finish set up i get an error "You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer". I am doing this as an admin on my PC. The printer works correctly on my Macbook. The guidance given by apple is no help at all. Any ideas?

I experienced the same general problem and did find a manual workaround in my particular instance. Hopefully this is helpful to anyone who's facing the same situation.
MY SETUP: installing a hp LaserJet 1012 that's tethered to a wireless Time Capsule (home network) on a virtual VISTA platform running within Parallels 4.0.3810 on an iMac OS 10.5.6.
THE PROBLEM: WinXP (also virtual) connected to the printer through BONJOUR FOR WINDOWS without any problems. However, doing the same in Vista resulted in a last step termination of installation with the following message from Vista: "You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer." Lovely.
Turns out, according to Microsoft (link: support.microsoft.com/kb/946394/en-us Help and Support Article ID: 946394 - Last Review: January 24, 2008), the problems is due to "the Hewlett-Packard (HP) print driver uses an HPBmini.dll file ("HP Mini Installer") whose version is earlier than 1.0.0.13."
My workaround was to simply install the network printer manually via ~ (the following are the choices that I clicked on in VISTA)
Vista Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Printers > Add a printer >
Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer >
The printer that I want isn't listed >
Add a printer using a TCP/IP address or hostname >
CHOOSE - Device type: Autodetect
INPUT - Hostname or IP address: "Time-Capsule"
(which is the specific hostname in my case, the hostname can be found by going to OS X System Preference > Print & Fax > click & highlight the printer installed on the local network in OS X and look for the hostname after "Location:". Remember, Windows do not do spaces, so if there are any spaces in your hostname be sure to substitute a dash "-".
SELECT - "Query the printer and automatically select the driver to use" >
Device Type > Standard | Generic Network Card > Install the printer driver* >
(*Here's the tricky step, since you don't want to use an old driver which would bring up that old insufficient access message, but you do have some options:
a) you have a known VISTA COMPATIBLE driver from the manufacturer (net downld);
b) the "Add Printer Wizard" window may contain a driver for your specific printer or a similar printer. Also, try the "Windows Update" button to refresh the choices if you can't find it the first time; and finally,
c)"Generic" is a legitimate choice in the Manufacturer window if you can't find any better options.)
From there, it's just Next > Next > and choose to share printer, etc. to finish up.
Luckily, I got through to "Print a test page" and it all works without the annoying "insufficient access" message.
Best of luck to you.

Bonjour for windows gives this error - You do not have sufficient access...

I installed Bonjour for windows on a PC running XP. When I run the Bonjour app from windows I can see the printer I wish to connect to. It is shared off of my G3 server. When I try to connect I get the following error,
"You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer"
I have done some research through Apple's info database and found,
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302408
I followed the instructions and still I get the same error. I have rebooted the PC deleted all the printers under the printer window. But no luck. I found a similar request by another apple forum user. His issue was the same but he was using 'Parallels' emulator. But no solution was provided.
Any suggestions?

Well this is what I've done to date to try to resolve this issue.
I uninstalled Bonjour for Windows from my PC. I checked Apples support pages dealing with Bonjour for Windows (BfW). As suggested I deleted all printers in my printer window, (to delete all possible print Queues). I updated my Windows to the latest patch for XP. I reinstalled BfW, with the XP Firewall turned on. It is suggested that BfW will make the necessary changes to the XP firewall to allow traffic going through port 5353. I have tried more than one printer off of my G3 and I double checked my external router port restrictions, and I turned off the firewall on my G3, shared mt printers in OS X, and even turned on windows file sharing. I even updated my G3 to 10.4.8
I pinged my G3 from my XP machine it's there. Also I can see the G3 with it's printers when I browse the network from the XP box. Also I'm on the same local subnet 192.168.2.x
The only thing I have not done yet is see if it is possible to ping a bonjour host (my G3) from a bonjour client (XP box). That would at least verifiy the 5353ports.
Anyone have a bonjour utility to do that? Probably have to run in a Windows enviroment. Or can a ping packet be directed to use a particular port?

Bonjour printer "You do not have sufficient access to...

Bonjour for Windows: Printer wizard says "you do not have sufficient access"
If you get this problem go into your Airport utility and change your printer name to something shorter than "40 Character." (Errrr PC!)
Then go back into your Bonjour and finish installing your printer.

This is happening with me. I have Airport extreme WiFi router with a USP printer attached. Mac prints just fine but while installing it on a Win7X64 computer it throws the permission error.

But Iam trying to do only a retrieve operation. Essbase version is 9.3.0.1.02 and OS is windows XP.
Also under Essbase->options->Mode tab, the check box update mode was unchecked.
I was able to do the operation before without any error and suddenly Iam facing this issue.

Essbase add-in error:You do not have sufficient access to perform a lock

Hi,
I have a user who is doing a retrieve in Excel and is getting this error on v.9.3.1:
Essbase Error: "You do not have sufficient access to perform a lock and send on this database".
The user is just doing a retrieve, no lock and send.
I asked him to disable 'update mode' in add-in options (Mode tab) on each of his sheets.
But when he open a new sheet/document Excel 2007, the 'update mode' is enabled by default.
Where can we change that ? Is there a command to put in a .ini file?
I check all the threads but there no answer on how to change this default setting.
Thanks for your help,
Marie.

Error: You do not have sufficient access to perform a lock on this database

Hi,
Can anyone help on this.
When user try to load data through Excel it throws the following error "You do not have sufficient access to perform a lock on this database"
We are using Essbase 6.5.
We have tried following options
FIX1:
In Microsoft Excel, under ESSBASE -> OPTIONS, under the MODE tab, the check box UPDATE MODE is checked.
When the UPDATE MODE check box is selected retrievals will automatically lock the corresponding database area with each retrieval. Disable Update Mode to stop locking blocks automatically. In update mode, the Send command (which updates the server with data values from the spreadsheet) does not automatically unlock data after the send.
1. Launch Microsoft Excel
2. Select ESSBASE -> OPTIONS
3. Select the MODE tab
4. Uncheck "Update Mode" to return to normal mode
This error is seen when trying to lock and send data via the Hyperion Essbase Spreadsheet Add-in into that fall within a replicated target partition definition
1. Go to HYPERION APPLICATION MANAGER -> DATABASE -> PARTITIONMANAGER
2. Select the relevant partition
3. Select EDIT
4. On the CONNECT TAB, select SETTINGS and tick the option THETARGET PARTITION CAN BE UPDATED
Also gave write access to that user.
Can anyone give another possible solutions.

Thanks, Scott. I executed

(replacing myusername with my user name)
and in each case there was a delay of a number of seconds and then the command prompt returned -- no errors. However, my renaming problem still exists.

The list of commands in petrock's post of Feb 1, 2008 12:11 AM ("Re: if you have problems with ACL") did not work for me. I think they made things worse because now I'm being prompted to enter my password when doing simple things like deleting files when before it hadn't. I think this is because the list of commands did not all complete successfully -- it's not clear what to do if you encounter "operation not permitted" or "no ACL present".
And, I don't know if this is relevant, but before this I resolved some permissions problems in this thread:

You do not have sufficient access

I had a USB printer connected to my Airport extreme and was able to print to it using Bonjour from my XP machine. However, because of it's unreliability, I re-connected it to my G5 iMac and used printer sharing for the other Macs which worked much better. However, when I tried to connect from my XP machine, the printer is found but I get the following error: Error: You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer. I have followed the Apple KB and re-installed Bonjour and deleted print queues etc., but it still doesn't work. Apple say that the latest version 1.03 fixes the problem. I have downloaded this and installed. However, the version number given in the XP control panel gives version 1.0.102!
Has anyone got any ideas please?
Thanks
Phil
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6) 3 other Macs

I'm behind a corporate firewall through a VPN. However, even when the VPN is disconnected and I am going through the Airport, I can't print. When the printer was connected to the Airport directly, it printed OK. However, printing wasn't reliable from the ibook and other macs when connected this way.
Thanks
Phil

You do not have sufficient access rights, pls help

Hi folks,
I'm getting the "You do not have sufficient access rights" error accessing the Identity System Console. The same admin account can access User/Group/Org Manager screen, however, for some reasons user and group searches return no results. This is the second OIS install against the same ldap dir (ovd to sun 6.3), so I had to specify Id server was not the first one to avoid profile conflict with oblix DBAgents. The admin user had been selected during prev install, and exists under o=Oblix in both cn=Web Masters and cn=Directory Administrators.
I have LDAPMaxNoOfRetries set to the number of dir servers +1 in all globalparams.xml on OIS. I also can modify ldap dir via both ldapmodify and ldap browser binding to OVD as same user. Turning the TRACE on didn't showed any errors except for the following:

Thank you, Roman

Hi Vinod,
Thanks for the post. OK, if I got it right, I have two entries under obcontainerId=DBAgents for each of my primary Id servers. For the one I currently use, I have this towards the bottom:
obname=oblixConfig-OIS_mdi-oamlx-3
obname=default-OIS_mdi-oamlx-3
Both entries have obdbusedby set to OIS_mdi-oamlx-3 which is my OIS id. The obsearchbasestr is different: o=Oblix,o=paychex inc for the oblixConfig, and o=paychex inc,c=us for the default one. Is that's the way it should be?
Thanks Roman
P.S: I've noticed I get same error accessing My profile under User Manager.

Hello there, charialji.
The following Knowledge Base article offers some great steps for troubleshooting your issue:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

On windows 7 I receive this error while installing error: "You do not have sufficient privileges to

error: "You do not have sufficient privileges to perform the requested action."
The resolution on the other thread did not work for me. What could be wrong? I have installed Adobe Flash Media Live before without an issue but after I reformatted my PC I keep receiving this. Thanks in advance.

I've solved it,
Change the permissions on the file (sudo chmod 755 httpd.conf)
then
sudo nano httpd.conf
and it works fine
thanks alot for your help

Dashboard Designer Error - You do not have sufficient permissions to complete the request.

Hi all
I have created a PerformancePoint Data Source library and a PerformancePoint Reports list on a SharePoint site. The PerformancePoint site collection and site features are also both activated. The data source library is in
the 'trusted data soruces' list in administration. Existing reports I have created show OK on the site.
When user, who has full control of the entire site, clicks "add a new item" in the BI Reports list, SharePoint launches Dashboard Designer OK.
The problem is when Dashboard Designer loads, it does not load the existing data sources & reports. Clicking on the refresh icon results in the error:
You do not have sufficient permissions to complete the request.
If I add this user to the Site Collection Administrators list, the user can refresh and view the data sources & reports OK. Is this a requirement to create reports in Dashboard Designer? It is not acceptable to set all
our report designer users as the site collection administrator.
Cheers
Tyson

Hi,
Have you also tried to assign rights using the technique mentioned in the above given document (i.e. using Dashboard Designer):
Important To assign or change user permissions for dashboard items, you must have
Full Control permissions. Although you can create and publish dashboard items with
Design permissions, you cannot assign or change permissions for dashboard items unless you also have
Full Control (Site) or Site Collection Administrator permissions.
Use the SharePoint Permissions dialog box to assign or change user permissions for a dashboard item. You can open the
SharePoint Permissions dialog box from Dashboard Designer or from the SharePoint list or document library that contains the dashboard item. The following sections describe both methods.
Edit user permissions in Dashboard Designer
In the Workspace Browser, click PerformancePoint Content or
Data Connections, depending on the item that you want to modify. Then, in the center pane, double-click the dashboard item to open it for editing.
In the ribbon, click the Home tab, locate the Item group, and then click
Permissions. A browser window opens, which enables you to view or change the SharePoint permissions for the dashboard item that you opened.
Use the SharePoint permissions dialog box to modify the user permissions for your dashboard item, and then save your changes.
Edit user permissions in a SharePoint list or document library
Locate the dashboard item that you want to modify in its SharePoint list or document library.
Select the check box that is next to the name of the dashboard item. At first glance, you might not see a check box next to your dashboard item. The check box is visible when you put your cursor next to the
Title column, which is located next to the name of the dashboard item. The ribbon appears in the SharePoint site.
In the SharePoint ribbon, click List Tools, and then click
Items. Locate the Manage section, and then click
Document Permissions. A SharePoint Permissions dialog box opens. This enables you to view and change the user permissions for the item that you selected.
Use the SharePoint Permissions dialog box to modify user permissions for your dashboard item, and then save your changes.
Please tell us if this approach shows different permissions assigned and solves your problem.
Thanks and best regards,
Martin

While trying to copy files using home sharing, get the error you do not have enough access privileges

I'm trying to use "Home Sharing" feature in iTunes to import files from another user on the same iMac. We have 5 users and one user is unable to import files from other users. We get the error "You do not have enough access privileges to perform this operation." All users are logged in using the same Apple ID and everyone else can import files. What gives?

Had the same thing happen to me a few weeks back when I switched computers and migrated. Here's what worked on my iMac, so maybe it'll work on your iPad, too. Go to User(your home folder)/Music. Select/highlight your "Music" folder. Then do Command-I ("Get Info" from the File menu), click on the padlock icon in the lower right of the new window. Enter your user password. Click on your username just above the now-open padlock. Select "Read & Write" if it's on "Read Only," "Write Only," or "No Access." Now having your user account with "Read & Write" privileges (it may have been this way already; still do this next step), click on the gear on the bottom-center of that window. Click on "Apply to all enclosed items." When the pop-up says "Are you sure?" (or the equivalent), say "yes." This will grant access privileges to your user account for all the music files inside your music folder--all your iTunes stuff included). Then you should be good to go.

Error: "You do not have suffficient access to perform a lock on this database

Hi, I have a problem with Essbase Excel Add-in, i can´t retrieve because appears this error: Error: "You do not have suffficient access to perform a lock on this database Plese, help me. Idon´t have speak inglish.

If the problem is limited to a single PC, I would suggest that you uninstall the Essbase client on that PC, reboot, and the reinstall the client including the addin. It appears that some sort of macro is running on that PC that does teh login in update mode. I'd also remove all copies of any excel spreadsheets that might be involved, copying a clean version from another PC. If you are using any third-party tools, like toolbars or other addins for excel and essbase, I'd clean them out also. You haven't said whether a login from an new, blank spreadsheet works. If it does, the problem is in the spreadsheet you are using to retrieve the application, otherwise, the problem may be in a corrupted add-in, or even possibly with your excell installation. It's hard to diagnose a problem when you haven't given us any more information about the problem. You haven't really answered any of the questions we've asked about behaviour and whether the problem existsin certain other circumstances. I'm certain that if language is a problem, someone might be able to help you in some language other than English, but generally this forum works in English because it a a common language in the Hyperion community.
