Cannot print with Reader 8.1.1 - But other (pdf) software can !

I opened a pdf document with Acrobat Reader v8.1.1 and tried to print it.
When I click OK in the print dialog then
immediately a dialog pops up informing me:
"Unable to start print job. Is printer available?"
Of cause it is available. I just selected it in the drop down menu!
I tried to start the print several times - without success.
The same bug occurs with other printers I selected.
So it must be a general printer recognition problem from Reader.
On the other side I can print the same pdf (and others) on the Laserprinter from other tools (e.g. from FoxIt Pdf tool).
So this must be a bug in Reader. Why does Reader recognize but not start the printers ?

Cannot Print with Acrobat Standard X

One of my clients is running ACROBAT X Standard on Windowes 7 64-bit.. She cannot print any PDF using Acrobat to any printer. Print jobs never reach the queue. As a work around she muct convert to Word.
Printing as image does not help.
Saving a copy does not help.
I have applied al updates, repaired and completely removed and re-installed the product but nothing helps.
Also, the Printer Properties button and Page Setup buttons do not work. They are not disabled (greyed out), they just don't launch these functions.
I appreciate any help!

I have Mavericks installed. Cannot print with IPhoto because there are no themes

I cannot print with IPhoto because it says that I do not have themes. How do I install themes? JL

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
*Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

Cannot print with Cannon LBP5000 and Timecapsule

So I've read that the Cannon LBP5000 is not compatible after all with Time Capsule. Due to the CAPT Driver being bi-directional. I do not accept this as a resolution and feel that Apple cannot simply push this aside. My reason for that is this.
I was printing fine, with both my MBP and Air via a USB cable to my Cannon LBP5000 - great.
I then decided to go wireless printing. And bought a HP 2101nw print server for £30. I could then print wirelessly - fab!
I then decided to upgrade my MBP to Lion. I then could no longer print on that machine. Air still fine - pants.
I then had to (for other support reasons) upgrade my Air to Lion, to fix something else. I could no longer print from their either - bugger.
After much passing of bucks and research, I found out the HP 2101nw driver is not Lion compatible, nor do Apple or HP have any intention of fixing that. I was told to discard that wireless print server for something compatible with Lion - cheers.
I then bought a 2TB TimeCapsule. And found I couldnt print from that either for the lame reason I quoted at the start.
If this print worked wirelessley with a £30 print server on Snow Lepoard, why is it acceptable for it to not work on a £249 device. The printer hasnt changed, but it seemed a £30 solution is able to handle this 'Bi-Directional' impediment where the mighty TimeCapsule gives up.
What a load of tosh - really, really unimpressed Apple. Take ownership and responsiblity for something for once and fix the exceptionally painful transistion you pushed us through with Lion.

Cannot print with all-in-one

I cannot print with my all-in-one because I have a print-job in th queue, and when I attempt to cancel it , it simply will not cancel, but remains in the queue. I think this happened when I was printing from the internet and a nearby lightning stike disrupted the printing.

Have you tried to shut down the computer and printer and then turning them on again??

Cannot print with hp 2600n through network

I installed Leopard on my two month old Imac(latest model) with no real glitches and thought all was fine until I tried printing with my HP color laserjet 2600n through my network.
I get my network showing up as guest sharing(not logging me in under my name) and even though I could print fine with Tiger, I cannot print with Leopard. The request shows up in the print queue but does not print.
Any advice would be appreciated. I was never prompted before for a password everytime I printed and was always logged in to my network and not a guest sharing before. I know I'm missing something here but everything else transferred over fine from Tiger but the printer is a mystery.
Thank you for any help,
Nathan

Try resetting the base station that your printer USB is plugged into.

Designer 7.0 form working with Reader 7.0.5 but not Reader 7.0.8

Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has had a problem with a formed created using Designer 7.0 that was working with Reader 7.0.5 but no longer functions with Reader 7.0.8?
The form consists of a numeric textbox N1 and 2 checkboxes C1[0] and C1[1].
All code is done using FormCalc.
Here is the situation: if the number in the numeric box is blank or not greater then zero, then neither check box can be checked. Both check boxes can not be checked at the same time. If the value in the numeric box is greater then zero, the checkboxes may or may not be checked (again both can not be checked at the same time).
N1 has code the following code in its exit event:
if (($.isNull) or ($.rawValue le 0)) then
C1[0].rawValue = 0 //if not positive value, checkboxes must be blank
C1[1].rawValue = 0
endif
C1[0] has the following code in its click and exit event
if (C1[0].rawValue == 1) then
C1[1].rawValue = 0 //C1[0] and C1[1] can not both be checked
endif
if ((N1.isNull) or (N1.rawValue le 0)) then
$.rawValue = 0 //uncheck if N1 is not positive
endif
C1[1] has the following code in its click and exit event
if (C1[1].rawValue == 1) then
C1[0].rawValue = 0 //C1[0] and C1[1] can not both be checked
endif
if ((N1.isNull) or (N1.rawValue le 0)) then
C1[1].rawValue = 0 //uncheck if N1 is not positive
endif
The above code worked exactly as described when the form was used in Reader 7.0.5.
Under Reader 7.0.8 the following happens:
if N1 is blank or less then or equal to zero, both checkboxes can be checked at the same time (this should not happen at all) but neither can be unchecked
if N1 is positive the code (and checkboxes) function as described.
I am not sure if this is a Designer issue or a Professional/Reader issue, so I am posting this here as well as in the other 2 spots.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Ben

Chris,
Thank you for the sample you provided. First, I must apologize for not mentioning that there was additional code in the Click event. I thought I had removed it from my form, but apparently I had not.
I have compare the sample you provided to my form. I noticed several differences between them. First was that you used Designer 7.1 to create your sample, whereas I used Designer 7.0. I do not believe that this will have an impact, although it is possible. Also, in your sample, then click and exit events both need to contain the same "check" code. Your sample has one IF statement in the click event and one IF statement in the exit event. To match my form code, the Click and Exit events together need to contain both IF statements. My form originally contained the code in the Change event also.
i.e. C1[0] has the following code in both its Click, Exit and Change events
if (C1[0].rawValue == 1) then
C1[1].rawValue = 0 //C1[0] and C1[1] can not both be checked
endif
if ((N1.isNull) or (N1.rawValue le 0)) then
$.rawValue = 0 //uncheck if N1 is not positive
endif
and similarly for C1[1].
Based off your sample, I did some more digging and found that the problem is caused by the Change event for the checkboxes. I have removed the code from the Change event and now the form works as desired.
So, if the Change event has NO code, and if the Click and Exit events for the checkboxes have both IF statements the overall behavior (as specified earlier) is identical (and what I am looking for) for both Reader 7.0.5 and 7.0.8.
Now, if I add the IF statements to the Change event (without removing them from Click and Exit), the behavior in Reader 7.0.5 does not change (works as specified). In Reader 7.0.8, the checkboxes can not be unchecked if N1 is blank.
So my questions now become:
1) What has actually changed between Reader 7.0.5 and 7.0.8 (i.e. more detailed description than the generic release notes)?
2) Which one actually exhibits the correct behavior?
3) If this is a change to the event model, is this documented anywhere?
Thanks again,
Ben

Hi wellsfar,
Which version of Adobe Reader you are using?
Is it showing any error message?
A screenshot of the error would be more helpful.

A particular network user can't login to a mac in a classrom but other network users can. Then the network user can login to other identical macs in same classroom. Anyone seen this before?

A particular network user can't login to a mac in a classrom but other network users can. Then the network user can login to other identical macs in same classroom. Anyone seen this before? It has happen twice. Two different teachers in two different classrooms entering the correct user name and passwords and computer won't allow them to login. Then they try in different computers in same classroom and have no problem login.

Yes. I can login with a test user. And any other network user can login as well to this particular mac. Actually the mac has bootcamp and boots into either mac or windows. The same user entering the same login username and password can login into the windows side, but not the mac side.
I had this same issue last semester in another classroom, another mac and a different teacher. This summer I reformatted and imaged that mac and I asked that teacher to login today to that reimagened mac and she had no problem today doing so.

How do one can upload a file (a PDF, doc etc) while filling a web form through chrome or safari? It is possible to upload a photo from the camera role, but other file types can not be uploaded.

For a variety of reasons, mostly related to security, the iOS operating system limits what can be done with respect to file uploading and downloading. But whenever you encounter a limitation like this always think, "There must be an app for this."
Check the apps James Ward suggests.
