"Add Printer"-Button dows not work

Hello,
the "Add Printer"-Button in the Print-Center does not work. Clicking on it the first time after starting the print center produces a "beachball" for one or two minutes, but nothin else. Any further clicking of the button will do nothing at all.
Any ideas how to fix that? I really would like to add a printer...
Greetings,
Martin
PS: The system is not newly installed, it is about one year old or so, when I installed it, I could install a printer, but now I want to install another one...

These are generic troubleshooting steps. Try ADDing a printer after each.
Repair permissions (Disk Utility).
Delete Print Prefs - search for (File>Find) files that start with com.apple.print and delete them all and reboot.
Try Printer Setup Repair from www.fixamac.net.
Use a Disk Utility like Disk Warrior to repair the HD.
If there is a downloadable Combination Updater from Apple, use it to re-Update OS X.
Good luck.

  • Ipad 2 Print button does not work after 6 upgrade?

    Since we upgraded to iOS6, our print button does not work and does not find our printer.  It was working fine until iOS6.  Called an Apple Technician and he had me reset, which wiped out all of my saved information but didn't fix the print.  He then started talking about a restore but the phone line went dead.  Has anyone had this problem?

    Today's iOS 6.1 update fixed the printer problem.

  • Email submit does not work; print button does not work online

    I installed livecycle 8 from cs3 onto a windows 7, 64 bit laptop
    I created a sample form to see how it works  (sample form  http://neelyranch.com/dogbabysittingform.pdf )
    Inside the program the form fills nicely, the print button works to my local printer, but the email submit does nothing
    I saved and uploaded the file as pdf online and tried it from my browser (chrome)
    Neiher print nor email submit buttons work
    I saved it as reader extended via adobe 8 with no change
    So, ??? am I doing wrong here
    Just a quick edit here
    I ran the form in Safari, mozila and ie8
    in all three the print button did work online, but in all three the email submit did not.
    nothing worked in chrome

    Thanks for both of  the responses. If you did select send then I did not receive anything.  I did check chrome plugins and found a message requiring an adobe update for pdf 9.
    I updated the pdf reader which gave me an update to pdf 11
    I revisited the sample form in live cycle and the online print routine now works in chrome and ie8 but the send email does not send
    When I select the send button after completing all of the other fields, I get a message 'preparing to send ...' then a window pops up with nothng in it but a greyed out top heading row, then it disappears and that is it.
    Has to be something between the button and the email pgm that is not connecting (my default is gmail)
    Same result in both chrome and ie8 - zip.
    Suggestions?

  • "add printer" utility won't work, need help

    I have an IMac “Lamp”. After I upgraded to 10.4.7 the ‘add printer’ utility will not work and so no printer is available.
    I had an older HP printer and one fellow at HP said that the problem was with the printer. I bought a new HP Photosmart 8250, installed the software and the same problem exists. The computer can see the printer and recognize it specifically as being plugged into the port but the ‘add printer ‘ utility still doesn’t work.
    A nice Canadian lady who works for HP spent well over an hour on the phone with me guiding me through quite a few moves dumping various files but to no avail.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Hi..
    I have a Poer Book G$ )S X 10.4.5. I am having the same problem with my printer utility....won't add printer. I am trying to install a new printer, HP 2575, all-in-one. With the instruction of HP support, I downloaded the latest driver, uninstalled all my other printers, re installed the HP 2575, threw out many files, etc., all with no success. My husband was able to install the printer on his PC (windows)...so it is a MAC problem. Now, there is nothing in my library/printer folder. My system does not list any printers either. When I plug the printer into my MAc with the UBS cable, it shows on the list of printers, but I can't add.
    Someone please help if you can.

  • The Add Printer button on the eprintcenter website on my screen is not working.

    I just registerd on the eprintcenter.com site and now I am trying to click on the +Add Printer button/icon to add my printer and it is not working. I have tried it in all different web browsers and it doesn't take me anywhere on any of the browsers. Sometimes I get the "javascript:void(0)" message down in the left hand bottom portion of my screen when my mouse goes over that button. What is wrong? Is it your site or my computer?

    I follow your instruction as below:
    1) download the sample app vbnet_win_printtoprinter.zip to dev computer and compile it to .NET 2005.
    - Run from my dev computer
    - Click "Print Report" button
    - Error message display - please see below
        The error was due to the default printer name hard coded in the program was not found. I have edited to my printer name and it can be printed out with no error.
    2) Use a "saved data" report so that you do not have to worry about database logon.
    can't find the "saved data", please elaborate
    3) Then copy the exe to the 64 bit box and try to print using this sample app.
    -do you mean copy the exe to the 64 bit computer for testing ?

    kindly, provide the solution.
    Thanks,

    Hi RamyaVemuri,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see that your printer power button is not working, and that their is no light indicators.
    I think this guide should help. 'The Cover is Open' Message Displays on the Computer.
    If that doesn't work, please respond with the type of printer you have as their are multiple Deskjet F2400s. Finding Your HP Product Model Number.
    Hope this helps, thank you for posting.

  • In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

    In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

    What operating system are you using?
    Which version of camera raw do you have in photoshop cs6?
    After you select the Adjustment Brush, the New button should already be enabled.
    Then after you draw on an area of the image, the Add button should be enabled, with the option to choose either of the other two buttons; New or Erase
    Could you post a screenshot?
    Maybe all the adjustment values are set to zero?
    (at least one needs to have a value other than zero)

  • "Add to Shooping cart" button does not work when changing Product Category

    Dear all, we are running SRM 4.0 Classic scenario and we have a strange problem with Product Category field. When click on the "Describe Requirement", it opens the shopping cart page with the Product Category field and the default value is coming from favorites. As long as you dont change this value , enter the other fields and click on the "Add to shopping cart" button, then it works. If the users try to change this value on this page to select a different value from the drop down, then the "Add to Shopping Cart" button does not work. Has anyone encountered this problem before. Users are getting frustrated with this behaviour. Any help to fix this issue is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Gabriel Bertrand

    Dear Disha, this is what is the behaviour.
    Suppose, if for a particular user, there are 4 items listed as favorites in the Product category and one of them is a default value. If you don't make any changes to this value and then click on Add to Shopping Cart, it works. If you try to select a different value other than the default from the favorites, then the Button does not do anything.You click on it nothing happens and cannot go to the next page. Also all the links are disabled (ie Describe Requirement / Old Purchase Order and Template)
    If we dont change the value for Product category and go to the next page (with default value) and then change the Product category here, it works (Continue button works and were able to Order or Hold).
    Thanks
    Regards

  • With version 5 of Firefox, if I open more than 1 session, most of the time I cannot see anything in the navigation bar and my back and forward buttons do not work.

    I open 1 session of Firefox 5.0.1 and everything seems to work fine. Then I open a second session of Firefox and most of the time the navigation bar does not show the page that I am on and the back and forward buttons do not work. When this happens, the first session always remains working. I am an internet marketer so I have at least 2 or 3 sessions going at any given time.

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How to add Print button on Webhelp in Robohelp 10?

    Can someone please provide step-by-step instructions to add Print button on Webhelp. I'm currently using Robohelp 10. I saw some suggestions using javascript in skin, but there isn't a step-by-step procedure available.
    I have been seraching for this from past many days. It'd be of great help to me. Thanks!

    Thank you very much for your quick reply. It was really helpful. However, I still can't see the button the webhelp output. 
    1. Created a new skin
    2. In the new skin, I added this print button and followed all steps explained (adding inline javascript and calling the function in the action tab under onClick, etc)
    3. I could see the preview of this being perfectly fine.
    4. But, when I generated the output by compiling it again, I could not see the changes I made in the webhelp
    4. I am thinking I am missing a crucial step. Is the new webhelp using the new skin? How to know this?
    5.  I carried out all the steps as explained, except this "Don't forget to tick the Print button in the second page of the wizard". Could you please let me know which wizard this is and where is the check box to tick the print button?
    I am eagerly waiting for your answer. Thanks!
