Adobe Printer disappears after Adobe 6.0 update

I updated my Adobe 6.0 professional yesterday and my print to Adobe option has disappeared under my printers. It now has Microsoft Office Document Image Writer in it's place. What happened and what can I do to fix it as this is my work computer and I have to print documents to Adobe in Access, as it won't let me save as .pdf.

Hi Denise, Have you tried a Detect & Repair in Acrobat? That should replace any missing files.

  • Adobe PDF Printer disappearing after 9.4.2 update

    A few hours ago I updated Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to 9.4.2, supposedly coming from 9.4.1.
    Since then the Adobe PDF Printer is no longer available among my printer options. That is for all applications: Adobe Acrobat, InDesign, Preview or ArchiCAD 14.
    It seems there's a similar issue with the 9.4.2 Windows upgrade (see Acrobat Windows forums). What now? Deinstall Acrobat? Or how do I revert to a older version?!
    MacBookPro 2009 (5,3), Mac OS X.6.6.

    Ditto...
    This is a whole lot of pain  unfortunately. I am sitting here lamenting why oh why did I upgrade?? But then it can only improve right? Whats the harm? Surely this will make things better? After all, it didn't really point out that the Acrobat Printer would no longer be available. I will never again do an upgrade on Acrobat as it has done this  to me before previously and it was a pain to sort out!
    Graphics users need the Adobe Acrobat PS Printer as without this we are  not able to set document parametres for print iro commercial printing.  Crop marks, page size, reg marks etc. Which can only be accessed via the  software once the Acrobat PS Printer output option has been selected.
    Simply selecting create Postscript file or PDF.... has none of those  attributes and is probably less useful than a chocolate teapot.  certainly not a "Pro" - "Professional" option, but rather meant for the  masses who have basic Acrobat requirements.
    I don't really care to get into the realms as to who did what and  whether it was Apples security option or Adobe's upgarde. This outcome  is going to upset a lot of graphics users who have paid good money for  this package as it was originally intended (for the professional with  professional requirements ie PS options) and I for one am annoyed at  software companies changing the rules as time goes on. Its the consumer  that keeps being inconvenienced all the time.
    If memory recalls, we have to totally uninstall and reload. But  theres a catch there somewhere if I remember correctly as the  uninstaller does not recognize certain files and if you apply the  reinstall using the older version of Acrobat, residual files from the  newer version create issues. Something like that. Not sure that makes sense to me either. But I remember theres a curve ball there somewhere...
    Going to be a long night!
    Rule for the future. Don't upgrade.

  • WiFi disappears after 10.7.5 update on iMac

    I posted this in the iMac drops wi-fi connection after 10.7.4 update, but it occurs to me that this might be a different problem.  I was having problems with my wifi dropping connection under 10.7.4 just like most of the people in the other thread.  I tried all of the "fixes" suggested, but nothing worked.  Then apple came out with the 10.7.5 update with claims that it would improve wifi reliability, so I installed the update and my wifi disappeared entirely.  I could not turn it on from system configuration, and when I clicked on the wifi icon, it read "no hardware installed".  The only way I could connect to my "wireless" router was to install a wire!
    Luckily, I have a back up drive so I reinstalled 10.7.4, and my wireless network (and those of my neighbors) reappeared under the wifi icon.  I don't know if I will have the same disconnecting problems as before because I'm going to leave the cable installed until apple figures this whole mess out.  One giant technological leap backwards!
    Anyone else had this experience?
    Maybe 10.7.6 will fix it ???

    Hey there. I had the same issue as soon as I updated to 10.7.5 (Lion) on Friday morning. After spending countless hours troubleshooting my router and my MacBook Air, talking to Apple Care, visiting the Genius at the store and searching the forums/net for an answer, I got the issue fixed. I also use a Netgear router and there are a couple of issues with the update, one being that it doesn't work with the old Netgear firmware.  Here's a complete step-by-step on how to get it resolved. My internet is working flawless now for a few hours and faster than before.
    1. Update Netgear Firmware: If you can't of course do this from your laptop, try another device (phone, iPad, tablet, etc...).
    Enable the Wi-Fi, connect to the router, and go to:
    http://192.168.1.1  Type in username: admin password: password
    Should automatically tell you there is a new software update. If not, go to Router Upgrade.
    2. Go to Wireless Settings (in Netgear): --> CHANGE CHANNEL to 3 or 9. --> CHANCE SECURITY to WPA2-PSK [AES]
    3. Let it refresh. (Wi-Fi goes offline and then back on).
    4. Go to Network Preferences on the MacBook (or laptop device) ---> Advanced --> and delete your router from the preferred list.
    5. Go to Macintosh HD (hard drive) --> LIBRARY --> PREFERENCES --> SYSTEM CONFIGURATION --> and under developer, DELETE the following three (3) files:
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    com.apple.network.identification.plist
    NetworkInterfaces.plist
    6. RESTART the computer.
    7. Go to Network Preferences: At the top, click on LOCATIONS and add a new one. Call it whatever you want. Then make sure when you are done, that it is now working off the NEW location.
    8. At the left, you see the pane that has the Wi-Fi or Bluetooth or whatever device listed. Click on the gear at the bottom --> SET SERVICE ORDER.  Again, make sure the Location is the new one you just created. Choose Wi-Fi.
    9. Connect to your router: Make sure you are using the NEW location.
    10. RESTART computer.
    Check and make sure you are connected. If you aren't connected, let me know.
    Just an FYI:
    If you call Apple Care (whether you are in warranty or not) let the first POC (verification department) know you are calling about a software update issue. They will transfer you to tech support. Once they transfer you, tell the tech specialist you want to be transferred to the Wi-Fi specialists. Yes, they actually have a team of Wi-Fi specialists!!
    Most of the steps I got from reading the Apple forums here. The only thing I didn't see anywhere was to change the channel to 9. She said it might get busy so remember the channel setting process and change to 3 or vice versa.
    Don't listen to any of these that say download this patch or revert to 10.7.4, etc... Just keep 10.7.5 and do these things.
    Hope it helps! Let me know

  • USB Hard Drive Disappears after 10.6.3 update

    My Samsung S2 640 GB USB portable hard drive is missing from Desktop, Finder and Disk Utility-- but visible in System Profiler after 10.6.3 update. It was fine before the update.
    Plugged directly into rear of iMac, I changed cables and slots-- no joy. Even tried a double USB cable as there is no external power supply.
    Four other USB HDs work just fine in all slots om the iMac , and this Samsung S2 works fine in my MacBook SL 10.6.3
    I bought an identical Samsung S2 and it had the same problems-- so it's not the drive.
    Suggestions?

  • Text disappear after flash and windows update

    Hi,
    I'm living a strange exprerience from the last windows software update (after i update even flash, to ensure that there was not a compatibility problem) , i can't display some fonts if I choose the option "anti-alias for reliability" , for example for the joeHand 2 , but the text came out again if I choose "bitmap" or "use device fonts" as display option.
    This seams a problem with this particular font, but appears only after an automatic windows update, and is not valid for every font.
    Someone resolve/had a similar problem?
    Thank you
    Riccardo

  • Cloud print disappears after update

    After the update to my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Google Cloud Print no longer works. Icon is gone. Not listed in the Google folder in all apps. Not appearing in share menu. But it is listed in all apps in the settings area and listed as active in settings/print.
    Also Handcent popup allows quick response to incoming texts, but whatever is typed doesn't get sent or even registered in the conversation list.
    Both issues need to be fixed.

    Hi,
    Cloud Print was working perfectly until the latest update of the phone. 
    I uninstalled - re-installed - rebooted and the problem remains.
    Cloud Print's icon is nowhere to be found.
    Cloud Print no longer shows up in the Share menu.
    BUT - Cloud Print shows in Settings/all applications
    AND - Cloud Print shows Settings/Other/Print as being active
    ALSO - only one application shows that it is still in the system: OfficeSuitePro.  There is a way to access Cloud Print in its print menu, but it's rather complex.
    Summary: A well-known app, and by Google, of all things, gets installed on Android but it cannot be used because it is essentially invisible. When did this happen?  Right after the phone's operating system update.
    Please advise,
    Michael

  • Printers keep disappearing after 10.5.7 update

    After I updated to 10.5.7, both of my printers disappeared from the printer list in all of my apps. I have one printer at home and one at work and both were gone. They seem to keep disappearing. Any ideas?

    Did you try repairing permissions? Or resetting the print system? When the printers disappear, you could type "ps ax | grep cupsd" to see if cups is running.

  • Calendars in ical disappeared after 10.5.6 update

    my calendars (4 calendars) and all my to-do item have disappeared from ical after I updated to 10.5.6. Not only that, but most of the items in the menu bar are grayed out so I can not create new events or new to do's. I deleted the com.apple.ical plist and I restored the calendar folder in user>library from time machine and it didn't work. I have added a new calendar item on my iphone and ical asked me to sync it on my macbook pro, but nothing is showing. Also, ical freeze every time I try to close it and I have to force quit.
    Thanks for any help.

    No, at the time I am writing this the topic is not answered. Simply applying the 10.5.6 combo update did not work for me when I had this problem.
    This did NOT work either - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1906?viewlocale=en_US.
    This is what worked:
    0) make sure both iCal and Mail are closed, and it might not be a bad idea to temporarily shut off any syncing software you may have active
    1) start with the calendar folders from Tiger that are located in Users/{yourusername}/Library/Application Support/iCal/Sources, the ones with crazy names like "2E28E612-467E-4981-975E-D07A31AC39C4.calendar" which contain files" called "corestorage.ics," "Index," and "info.plist"; if "all" you have is an iCal backup library (.icbu file), then you can go to a Tiger machine, restore to that iCal, and then take the above calendar folders from it
    2) copy the calendar folders to the desktop of your Leopard machine
    3) read this thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1196389&tstart=0) down to the posts by Thierry Girard
    4) do what he says with the text editor, but you can use TextEdit, and look for either the SEQUENCE:-1 or the PRIORITY:-1. Set either one to just 1 (remove the negative sign); I had some value related to a MICROSOFT this or that, and I did not change it at all.
    5) take the edited calendar folders from your desktop and move them into /Users/{yourusername}/Library/Calendars
    6) start up iCal; at this point, I was in business
    I hope this is helpful.

  • Printing problems after 10.6.5 update

    Any news on a possible problem with the latest system update? After doing this the other day I can't seem to print correctly out of photoshop CS5. The print box seems to preview correctly but does not come out the way I want. The same file opened up on a 10.6.4 system will print good. I hear it may be the upgrade that happened. Is there a fix coming out soon? Or any ideas on how I can help my computer. Also, just in case you tell me to do this I already cleaned house on the preferences for photoshop.

  • Re: Printer Problems after 10.4.6 Update

    I cannot find a solution to my printing problems since having updated to 10.4.6
    I am using an HP Deskjet 3620 which worked fine with 10.4.5
    Since the update, my printer settings have disappeared. When I try to add a printer, all I get is an error message. I have tried reinstalling the printer software, but I receive a message that I do not have a system folder. I have tried resetting my printer system but this does not solve the problem, nor has repaiting disk permissions.
    Does someone have a solution?
    Sincerely frustrated,

  • Printer disappearing after reboot

    I have several Windows 2008R2 Citrix Xenapp 6.5 servers. I am trying to install a Midmark PDF printer. I can install it fine, but when I reboot the server, it just goes away. Does anybody have any ideas? I have been using the install package from
    Midmark, but I also tied it manually, (it uses the Amyuni Doc Converter 400 and the null port.) I can manually add it, but again on reboot, the thing disappears out of Devices and Printers. Midmark doesn't have any suggestions. On ONE citrix server it actually
    stays. I am not sure of the difference (if any) between the server where it stays and the others where it disappears on reboot. Anybody have any suggestions?

    Hello David ,
    I assume Midmark PDF is tools to take print out in PDF format from Midmark application ,if so have you contacted midmark tech team ?
    Could you please let us know if you have installed any other printer except Midmark PDF and what about your print spool service after restart.
    If print services are running fine check event log related to that and share with us ,mean time you may uninstall  Mid mark and try ABBYY PDF transformer+ ,By doing this you can come to conclusion  if any compatibility problem have .This product
    is easy to use and save time due to the some good features and way of doing. If you are using msoffice then I hope you will like the plugin features of ABBYY PDF transformer+(http://download.abbyy.com/pdft_plus/).
    please let me know if I can assist you anything .

  • All iCal data disappears after 10.4.3 update

    After updating to 10.4.3 all my iCal data was gone. I restored it using Backup and when I launched iCal it all appeared as normal—and then a few seconds later, poof, it all disappeared again right before my eyes. I tried making a new entry and at first it didn't seem to work, then all my iCal data reappeared for a few seconds, only to disappear again a few seconds later, leaving iCal "virgin" as if no entry had ever been made.
    The current iCal version is 2.0.3. I have tried erasing preferences and starting over again to no avail. I have also repaired the disk and the permissions with no improvement.
    Any suggestions anyone? This is one of the strangest OS X problems I have ever encountered.

    Yes,,, how did you solve the problem specifically from all the suggestions you got?
    I got a whole new powermac and used the migration assistant, but that didnt bring the information over for some reason (regarding iCal atleast, and some small unimportant pref files).
    I tried faking a 'subscribe' situation, a drag and drop, emailing the ics file, manually inputting them into the new machine's folder and so on but no go. And I dont have a .mac account to try pushing them over...

  • Wi-Fi disappeared after 4.3.5 update

    After updating to 4.3.5, Wi-Fi disappeared from my iPad 1 totally. I cannot even see my Wi-Fi mac address. My iPad 2 is just fine.
    Please help me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Mario Lordeiro

    I assume that WiFi setting is not greyed out but your settings have disappeared. Have you tried either of these very basic troubleshooting steps?
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    You could restore your iPad from the backup as well - that is if you backed up (and you should have done so) before you updated the iPad. Your WiFi settings would be contained in that backup. However, if you have synced your device after the problem arose, that backup would not contain the settings.
