Since upgrading to Lion OSX Firefox won't download statements or pdfs?

When trying to download end of month statements from Orange or Skype the download is not permitted with a message saying try saving it somewhere else? So i opened everything in Safari and it was OK, but want to work with Firefox as I prefer the tab system and all my saved bookmarks etc. Can anyone suggest a fix? I have latest version of Firefox apparently 7.0.1
Thanks, Sarah

Hi FengShuiSarah-
You might want to check your Options. You can modify how Firefox deals with pdf's and other file types. Here is an article on the [[Options window - Applications panel]].

HT2506 Is there anyone else who is having problems printing with Preview since upgrading to Lion OS X?

Since upgrading to Lion OS X, I have not been able to print any of my documents that were created in Adobe PDF. All calls to customer support have been a bust.
When I try to print anything it comes out looking like this:
Apple PREVIEW team!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi Linc...
Here is a copy of your prior post to me on a different forum...
Still no resolution...

Re: Anyone having problems with Preview since upgrading to Lion OS X? When using a pdf form that allows multiline text, I am finding that the printing is completely illegible. The lines are stacking on top of each other.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, selectHelp from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Note: If you’ve activated FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Did all of that yesterday, with the Apple Representative on the phone, and nope, still a problem...it was kind of exciting, really, they kept going up and up the tiers of support until I got disconnected...Fortunately I had the email address of the gentleman who was helping me so that I could email him back and let him know that we got disconnected...as you might imagine, he still has not emailed me back. They were able to receive a copy of the form that I use for charting and try it in their facility on their computers, so we know:
1- it is not just my computer.
2- it occurred only after installing Lion OS X, not sure if they have tried it on Snow Leopard, but that's what I would have done if I was them...assuming that somewhere in Apple someone has not upgraded to Lion.
3- it is not just my software.
I think the problem is with the newer iteration of Preview not communicating well with the Adobe .pdf. probably some line of coding that needs to be written and insertedinto their program for multiline text.
:-) Thank you for your help!

1. Turn the router, iPad and printer off
2. Turn on the router and then wait 30 seconds
3. Turn on printer and then wait 30 seconds

Print menu different since upgrading to Lion 10.7.4. Pop up menu no longer has Preview and lost paper size selection. Photos all printing credit card size. Still using iPhoto 6.0.6. Have upgraded printer drivers.

Print menu is different since upgrading to Lion 10.7.4. Pop up menu no longer has Preview and lost paper size selection. Photos are all printing credt card size and I can't get it changed. (Have tried changing in Page Setup.) Have upgraded my printer drivers, but still no luck. Still using iPhoto 6.0.6.

A slow boot time can be caused by login items.
User Login Items:
    Flux
    NoSleep
    ClipMenu
    Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector2
    BetterTouchTool
    USBOverdriveHelper
    TotalFinder
    Gmail Notifr
Open System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items
Remove one login item noted above then restart your Mac to test. It may be one or multiple items causing the slow boot.

While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t run Mountain Lion. There's a Mountain Lion Support Community where everybody has Mountain Lion. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/os_x_mountain_lion

Since upgrading to Lion I cannot connect to my Buffalo Terastation

Since upgrading to Lion I cannot connect to my Buffalo Terastation and get the following message. "The version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported. Please contact your system administrator to resolve the problem". I have updated the firmware on the Terastation but still can’t connect to it. I have also posted this message on the Buffalo forum. Any suggestions?

Lion changed the rules for NAS communication. See this Web page. As that page dates from last July, I'd hope that NAS vendors would have fixed things by now. I'd ask Buffalo directly whether that product supports the protocol(s) described in that article.

Since upgrading to lion and updating HP software my printer (photosmart D5160) will not print to CD/DVD when I try it says my printer doesn't support CD printing. any help will be welcome

Since upgrading to lion and updating HP software my printer ( HP photosmart D5160 driver 3.3.0) will not print to CD/DVD,when I try it says "your printer does not support CD printing". any help will be welcome.

I see those are old posts above but I'm just now having the same problems. I have the original software CD that came with my Photosmart D5160 printer but I can't load it. I get the message "You can't open the application "HP Installer" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported". So I don't have that going for me, which is not nice! But I couldn't really care less about that if I can just find a CD labeler software that will print from my Mac to the D5160. I'd rather by new CD labeler software than a new printer. I've tried a few free CD labeler software downloads, including iWinSoft Label Maker, but nothing has worked so far. I think there's an answer somewhere; I'm able to print documents on regular paper using this printer, but I only bought it (many years ago) to print CD labels and some pictures. It's been used only sparingly and it's been in storage since I bought my Mac 3 years ago, mainly because a I got a free printer with my purchase. Any help is vertainly appreciated!!!

Canon MX700 Printer problem since upgrade to Lion.

Hi
Since upgrading to Lion every time I try to print something on my Canon MX700 networked printer I get a communication error. I found that what I have to do to get it to work is to print the document a second time and then delete the first document in the printer queue. This pauses the printer and when it is resumed the second document prints successfully.
Anyone else have this problem or can anyone shed any light on what might be wrong?
Scanning seems to work OK.
Many Thanks

you need to upgraded canon MX700 that's support Lion.
you can download updated driver from http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_mx_s eries/pixma_mx700#DriversAndSoftware
But remember, you should trash the BJPrinters folder, located in HD > Library > Printers > Canon. This action to uninstall driver canon MX700 that's installed on your mac

Problem Printing PDFs since upgrading to Lion

Since upgrading to Lion on two machines (macbook pro 2011 and imac 2010) I have had a HP CM2320 and a HP M2727 produce the following error whilst printing from Preview PDF documents:
/usr/libexec/cups/filter/cgpdftops failed
The PDF documents are many but here is an example,
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26737363/Modified%20contract%20Causing%20error%20in%20pr int.pdf
The only way I can print is to print using Generic PCL printer driver. Gereic Postscript also causes the problem.
The problem doesn't occur when printing from Snow Leopard.

I went to the page of your link: Safari 5 without plugins displayed the pdf page perfectly.
Then I saved as.. to the desktop.
Then I opened it with preview, printed pefectly.
Closed Preview and opened it in Adobe Reader (I do not use Acrobat): printed perfectly.
I don not have a HP printer but I tried it on Canon Multifunctionals.
So I conclude: it is not Safari (or a plugin), it is not the document itself, it has to do with the HP driver(s) probably.

I cannot get iWeb to open since upgrading to Lion.

Since upgrading to Lion, I cannot get iWeb to open. The the top title bar comes up but I cannot open or create new pages. Checked this on my mum's iMac and it has the same issue.
Any thoughts in resolving?

In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Safari works great on my iMac, but not so well on my Macbook Pro since upgrading to Lion. I get a message that I am not connected to the internet when I try to open a webpage even though the wireless icon at the top of my screen shows I am connected.

Since upgrading to Lion I am having problems with Safari on my Macbook Pro. I am using wifi to access the internet and the internet works in all other application except for Safari. When I try to access a webpage most times I get a error message saying I am not connected to the internet. If I click on diagnose the problem, I get connect again to the internet through the diagnostic process and the webpage generally works. This is not a problem when wired to the internet.

Check your network settings, in particular the advanced setting "DNS Server". If it is by chance 127.0.0.1, make sure to change is and use a know DNS Server (from Google for example, or your own Router local address).

Can't always connect to remote speakers since upgrading to lion

In one fell swoop I did a lot of upgrading, and ever since I haven't been able to reliably connect to any remote speakers using iTunes on my iMac. From iTunes (or the Remote app on the phone or iPad) I can see remote speakers, but I cannot connect. From iTunes, I just get the stripy progress bar, and it won't ever go away unless I cancel out. From the remote app, it just becomes unrepsonsive.
Context:
I have a iMac with OSX Lion, that I upgraded from Snow Leopard a few weeks ago. At about the same time, I updated iTunes to 10.5 from the last 10.4 release to be able to get the IOS 5 update on my and my wife's phones.
I have an Airport Extreme connected to our broadband, with 3 airport expresses in various places in our house connected on a wireless network to stereos for remote speakers. The iMac is connected to the Airport Extreme via ethernet. After upgrading the OS and iTunes, I got a notice that there was a firmware update for my two most recent airports (the Extreme and one of the expresses). They are running version 7.6 of the firmware, the other two airports are running 6.3.
There has been no change to the physical environment -- no sources of interference or anything like that. I can play music from the Music app on my phone to any of the remote speakers, there is no problem there.
About half the time, if I restart everything (wireless base stations, and then the computer) I can get the remote speakers to work. However, the next time the computer wakes up from sleep mode, I have the same connection problem described above.
Has anyone else experiences these sorts of troubles? I have seen some similar problems with older versions of all these applications and OS's -- and the solution there was to turn off ipV6 -- however, it doesn't look like that's an option now. Is this an identified bug, and is there a fix on the way? Is there anything I can do in the meantime?

Well, after some experimentation and internet-lookin', I deduced that is possibly a wi-fi problem. It seems that many people are having wi-fi problems since upgrading to Lion, and although I'm not connecting directly to my wireless network, it does form a pretty big chunk of my setup describe above.
So I tried the fix outlined on OSX Daily here: http://osxdaily.com/2011/11/06/lion-wi-fi-problems-solution-mac/
Essentially what it has you do is to create a new network location, name it, and then renew your DHCP lease. This seems to have worked for the time being.

Since upgrading to Lion, my HP officejet pro 7550 orubts, but will not scan

since upgrading to Lion, my hp officejet 7550 will print fine but won't scan---any suggestions?? I downloaded the drisavers from Apploe,but that didn't solve the issue.

Hi @Southglen,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer will not recognize your wireless router password. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!
I would recommend to go through this guide, How to Find the WEP or WPA Key or Password for Your Wireless Network, just to double-check your wireless password, in case it might have changed.
I would also suggest a hard reset, by going to this post How to perform a Hard Reset, by @Rich1.
After those two steps, I would suggest a firmware update, Getting Printer Updates for HP Officejet Pro 8600 (N911), Officejet 6600 (H711) and Officejet 6700 P....
Let's start with these steps, and we will go from there!

Can no longer print since upgrading modem.

can no longer print since upgrading modem. none of our apple devices see the HP printer anymore. they used to. says no airprint printers found. any thoughts on how to fix?

If you upgraded the modem......but you have not reset the printer back to its original default settings and then set it up again......now would be a good time to do this.
The printer still has the programmed settings to connect to your old modem, and it cannot find it, because it is no longer there. The printer is lost, and does not know how to find its way. It needs to be set up again with new settings to match your new modem.
