Bonjour Printers appeared, and poof! disappeared from the list

Hi Super-Genius Group!
I am trying to set up our new PowerBook 12" to print through an airport base station to printers attached to our iMac G4 which is currently hardwired to the base station, both machines running 10.4.5. I had little luck yesterday, not seeing any of the printers in the printer browser and trying all the various LPD, IPP, Appletalk, etc. browsers/connections. Finally today turning sharing on and off on the G4 triggered something and the three (! we collect a new cheap printer every time we buy a system) printers briefly appeared in the browser list on the Powerbook..... for about three seconds they were listed correctly with the address as '@bonjour' and then POOF they were gone. Any help? Thanks,
Dan and Angela Worcester
PS Perhaps two other particulars will help. The network works well for any other kinds of sharing. - and - Before upgrading the iMac from 10.3.9 I did manage to print to a queue (I think it was a default queue) using this airport set-up.

OK, have you loaded the software from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page?
If so and that did not work, look on your CD under the utils/ccc folder for an L3_uninstaller and run it.  Reboot and reload from the Support & Drivers link above.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • HT4818 I have installed bootcamp that worked properly.  Then I have partitioned the OS X 10.8.2 and installed another OS X 10.8.2 and I have got two MAC boot options and Bootcamp disappeared from the Option menu. How can I boot Windows again and keep both

    I have installed bootcamp by the bootcamp assistant and worked properly.
     Then I have partitioned the OS X 10.8.2 and installed another Mountain Lion System and I have got two MAC boot options and Bootcamp disappeared from the Option menu. However, Bootcamp still remained in the Startup Disk in the System Preferences. When I tried to boot Bootcamp using the Startup Disk it did not boot and received a message that there is no bootable device. I have not lost any data and can read Bootcamp partition from both OS X systems. Please advise how can I boot Windows / Bootcamp again? Thank you. 

    Recommendation 1: Use a VM for this. It's essentially a giant C.F. to do this with native booting, and is potentially fragile.
    But if you're going to ignore that and do this anyway, realizing that it can break anytime in particular with OS upgrades, and that it's very difficult to impossible to resize the three volumes once you've installed the systems:
    1. create three partitions, setting each to be the size for OS X copy 1, copy 2, and Windows respectively. The Windows partition needs to be set to MS-DOS format (actually FAT32) which later in the Windows installer you'll reformat as NTFS. Do not use Boot Camp Assistant to resize/partition the disk, it simply won't work for this use case.
    2. install OS X copy 1
    3. install OS X copy 3
    4. Use gdisk (available at sourceforge) which is a command line only application, to create a new hybrid MBR adding only the last partition (Windows) to the hybrid MBR and setting it to be bootable. As a concequence you will not be able to see/share either OS X volume from within Windows. The Windows NTFS volume will be visible from within OS X.
    5. Install Windows to the only partition its installer should see (confirm size), you'll need to format it NTFS first, and I suggest using the fast format option if available.

    My albums and slideshows disappeared from the left column when I ejected a Canon camera after a download.  My version of iPhoto '08 (V7.1.5(378)) had just crashed when I first connected the Canon camera to download.  I restarted iPhoto.....successfully downloaded 22 photos, and ejected Canon camera, upon which albums & slideshows highlighted blue and disappeared from the left column.  The photos still seem to be under the EVENTS and PHOTOS in the LIBRARY.  Any thoughts?

  • I have added more songs to my library. Half of the library has selected ticks but when I click on any of the others to select them the whole song disappears from the list. Why and what can I do to fix?

    Hey Paul,
    If I understand correctly, it sounds like iTunes is not grouping the songs from a particular CD together. The cause could be something as minor as a misspelling or slight variations. For more information, see the following resource:
    Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

  • Songs suddenly disappeared from the lists

    I tried to sync my Ipod touch, but when I looked, all songs have disappeared, although the space remains used (the bar shows other as the type of information stored).
    I tried reseting the device, but the situation is the same after it.
    Has anyone suffered the same problem?

    I've had the same problem on multiple occasions.
    Apparently other people have too:

  • Icon for i cloud suddenly disappeared from mail ?  Not a problem but just concerned that the icon should disappear from the listing for the iCloud e mail account

    I had previosly set up a number of IMAP e mail account in addiiton under my .mac and .me account which is my personal account.
    On the mail home page it had the inbox listing thee accounts and further down the page its used to list the on line accounts set up under I cloud using the same name as the .mac or .me accounts, but also included the i cloud icon as does my ipad.  Logged onto day and the i cloud icon had dissappeared?  not sure why it is still functioning and I still have all my icloud accounts set up but the icon is no longer present.
    Maybe just a bit anal but it bugs me to know why this icon has suddenly dissappeared?

    Hello,
    Do you use these settings in Mail for your Gmail account (especially for the SMTP) ?
    If you use IMAP and all your emails are still stored on the server you can delete your account in Mail and recreate it with the settings mentionned above.
    Hope this will help.

  • When trying to connect to epson nx420 printer it disappears from the list of printers..

    how do i select my epson nx420 printer when it automatically disappears when i try to click it?

    Are you using IPP or LPD? IPP usually gives better results, if activated at the printer. As for automatic driver selection, it normally doesn't work thru TCP/IP, only thru AppleTalk. So you have to scroll down and look for the specific model. If not there, make sure you don't have a "Lexmark Printer Drivers Update" pending to install on System Update. Or visit the Lexmark.com site and download the drivers file to install.

  • HT204380 Help please. My FaceTime do not work after update system ios7. And generally disappeared from the menu

    Please help

    Yes. And since you aren't backed up, you may have to use Prosoft Data Rescue to try to recovery any information that is critical. First though, do you have another Mac you can hook this one up to using Target Disk Mode?
    If you do, that's another way to rescue information. Target Disk Mode is explained here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    Similarly, if you have a bootable external hard drive, you can try to boot off that with the Startup manager:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106178
    To rescue your information. This at least will allow you to do further analysis to see what data corruption might have happened. If the drive is invisible when booted off another, that may indicate a directory issue. But first let's see if we can attach or boot off another and see the internal drive of the machine.

    Right click on the email  in the left hand pane.  Select Mark as Unread to return it to an unread state.  Click Delete to move it to the trash or file it in a folder if you have any configured.  You may need to click the show button on the upper left hand side of the window to see your folders.  The + sign at the bottom of that pane allows you to add a new folder.

  • Plugins randomly disappear from the menu until they are disabled and reenabled in the latest stable release

    I randomly have phony and abp disappear from the menu. If I disable and reenable the plugin it starts working again.

    The outdated Flash plugins is not due to any Firefox version or updates but due to a blocklist of vulnerable Flash plugins made on Dec 11/12. The Firefox 31.3.0esr and 34 were released on December 1st and the updated Flash came out on Dec 9.
    For Windows and Mac 16.0.0.235, 13.0.0.25'''9''' ESR and 15.0.0.24'''6''' are not vulnerable according to Adobe and are not on blocklist.
    For Linux the Flash 11.2.202.42'''5''' is not vulnerable according to Adobe and is not on blocklist while 11.2.202.42'''4''' and older is. Adobe is still supporting the Flash 11.2 with security fixes.

  • Hi. Does anyone know how to delete my guest network from the list of network choices that everyone in the neighborhood sees when picking a network?  Followed helpful suggestions on this site to delete the netwk but it still appears.  Appreciate any help!

    Hi.  I'm trying to make my guest network disappear from the list of network choices that appears to everyone in the neighborhood.  Even though I followed the great suggestions on how to delete the network, it's still appearing in the list that everyone sees.  It has my name and would prefer to get rid of it.
    Please help!  Many thanks!

    Thank you for not only the tip but also especially the research showing that for anybody other that those using Wi-Fi for the first time the network wouldn't disappear.  I wanted it to disappear for everyone so.....I finally solved it by resetting the Airport Extreme to the factory settings and starting over from scratch!  It worked! Yay!!!!!
    So, for everyone that has had this problem (and I've read many of the same complaints in different places on the Internet), you must go into Airport Utility and check the box stating that you want to reset it to the factory settings.  Do not do it with a paper clip and the reset button on the box; I tried that first and it did not work.  You must reset it via the Airport Utility.  Then just start over and you will have the choice to NOT check the box to Enable Guests.  If you want to enable guests, just be sure not to use your name or you're back to the same problem. Apple is so great with everything...wouldn't it have been so easy for them to just put this in the manual somewhere?????  Thanks for all your help.    Hope this helps others!

  • Rescheduled call disappears from the call list

    Hi Experts,
    We are working on CRM 7.0 We are having an issue while trying to reschedule the calls in the Call list.
    The rescheduled call disappears from the list and appears after some "X" time.
    Say, if the user rescheduled the call for 30 minutes and saves, the call disappears immediately from the list. Users are not able to view the call for some time, even after the rescheduled time. Even log out and log in is also not helping.
    Requesting your expert comments on the issue.
    Best Regards,
    RK.
