Challenge for all of you with SL and printer issues

I have an iMac with an Epson Stylus C-88+. Let's try an experiment. Pick a sample web page, in the Title Bar, go to File/Print, or Command-P. Go to the lower left hand corner, you have the purple question, then"PDF"/ Click/ "Save as PDF"/ Click. You should be able to find a copy of that website where you save documents in pdf. Because this is all within the machine, there are NO connectivity issues. I failed both in printing and pdf. Anybody out there have better luck?

John Blanchard: Sir, try it for yourself and come to your own conclusion. Each situation is different. I am beginning to think the problem is not just be the printer / print driver, but just may be 'Snow Leopard'. Apple needs to become more involved, not just the printer companies. You write, "Are you saying that saving to PDF doesn't work?" All I'm saying is this, "For me, it did not work. You must explore the situation to determine the functionality of your own individual system. For me, earlier on Saturday, I was printing through the printer AND printing to disk (PDF). I later did a "Software Update" including Epson Printer Update. Later in the morning, I went back online and was going to print a disk or PDF, but it would not function. I called AppleCare and explained the situation. The Tech told me to try my printer, I ask him "Well, what are we going to do?" This is the first time I discovered the problem was also with the printer. The Tech said, "YOU are going to call the printer manufacturer and inform THEM of THEIR problem." I said, I didn't get this update from Epson. I got it from AppleCare!" AppleCare wants us to keep our systems up to date. Well, I've got an updated system that is also (REDACTED). Terms not acceptable for a discussion board!

  • A suggestion for all the people with panics and piix

    Everyone may overlook this because it seems so simple of a possible fix. So I will try to explain why it may help. It has worked for me, and several others. My laptop uses this chipset, and so it intermittantly panics for me if I don't use this. My information may not be 100% precise, but I will try to explain the best I know.
    Since linux started using udev, hardware detection is asynchronous now. This allows faster and more efficient detection, but can cause all sorts of problems depending on the quality of your motherboard, bios, and other gear. So depending on circumstances, the time it takes for udev to get responses from all hardwares might vary depending on any number of circumstances. Limitless changes in kernel, firmwares, bios, drivers, etc- everyone's experience might vary. It may have worked fine in 2.6.17, but 2.6.18 does not work at all, 2.6.19 is spotty, etc...
    This problem mostly occurs in my usb/external and sata drives. But in certain times I will get panic on my ide internal drive on boot. The bootloader relies on BIOS detection to get started. But once kernel loads, control is turned over to kernel. But kernel/udev request might not get response in time (since its asynchronous now) before boot tries to turn over to root=/dev/xxx. So mount fails, panic occurs. Earlymodules=piix tries to thwart this problem by loading the module much sooner. But again, depending on yout hardware, it might not happen soon enough. Also, since the drive will be busy at random times depending, it might need to finish up before it will respond to udev.
    In summary, the drive has not responded to udev/kernel before the bootloader finishes loading the kernel and tries to turn control over to the new root. earlymodules=piix works for some, not others. Especially now since pata over ide. If you have this problem, the fix very well might be as simple as this, especially if you have sata, scsi or usb drives: Add rootdelay=15 on kernel line in bootloader. For example:
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz26ck root=/dev/sda2 rootdelay=15
    15=15 seconds. Might not need this much, but 15 second delay should be ample time for most people. For me, i don't use the earlymodules=piix, and I use rootdelay=5, and every time is fine. This option tells the kernel to literally wait x seconds before trying to turn root=/dev/xxx over and continuing boot. during this pause, you might see misc. devices returning info to udev before continuing, including your drive.
    It really probably does seem to easy or simple to be true. But try it- it might work for you. I have seen more people say OMG IT WORKED!! versus people who say it didn't. Hope this helps some of you.

  • For all of you with Error -3 with QuickTime

    I have been trying to figure this out for awhile now, but finally read a thread on a different error code and it worked for me also.
    I'm not quite sure if Apple likes Windows users much because they always seem to put little things in their software that do not do what we want it to. For example, with iTunes, iPod service and iPod Helper (both .exe's) run without your knowledge, stealing memory. And with quicktime, this is one little hard bugger to delete. I actually still found traces of it with uninstalling it with multiple programs.
    Anyhow, to the point, I had to go into my registry and delete quicktime from there (deleted registry is usually done with un-installations. To get into your registry, go to "Run" from your Start Menu and type in "cmd.exe" From here, type "reg" Go to HKEY LocalMachine, then into software, then to Aplle Inc, then to quicktime. Delete all of the quicktime and try and reinstall iTunes and Quicktime. It worked for me. Happy trying!

    SaraRose,
    The link to standalone quicktime is:

    Fixing the -3 error...
    1. Go to: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301 and install Windows Install Clean up
    2. Open the file in Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean up
    3. Once it is open click iTunes and remove. Do the same for any Quicktime files in there (you can leave the iPod alone)
    4. That's it! You should be able to run the iTunes/Quicktime setup
    If you follow other threads you will find the same solution, I just thought this would be more convenient and easy to acess. It also shows how to use the program so you don't have to read the confusing information on the Microsoft link.

    Question
    When I add a https link to quicklinks, when I click on it, the (:) after https does not go to the address bar and thus the link is not connected. This is happening for all quicklink bookmarks with https: Is there a solution?

    Try some basic troubleshooting.
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

  • Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Yes - well you have to make the file in a word processing Application.
    You could use TextEdit (it's free) Pages (words only), or Numbers (data base) (they are part of iWorks - and may or may not be free (included) on your machine.  You could use MS Office (it is not free) You could use any Open source word processor that plays well with Office (NeoOffice, StarOffice) they are free.
    That's how you create content and copy/paste URLS. Then you save the file to the desktop. If you are going to make more than one file... you make a folder on the desktop and save, or drag the file(s) into it.
    You attach it to your e-mail client which will compress it and e-mail it. An excellent reference is to use Help, from the menu bar, also from inside any application. From your library or book store the OS X for Dummies has a lot of useful information (you don't read it cover to cover but look up chapters about what you'd like to do)
    You can also make appointments at your local Apple store for individualized help (if a store is nearby)

  • Anybody can help me understand if the Ipads becomes ready to be used in all world regions with 3G and or 4G infrastructure? I mean, are all of them released or when I buy one in the US to be used in Argentina I need to ask for a released one, less cheaper

    anybody can help me understand if the Ipads becomes ready to be used in all world regions with 3G and or 4G infrastructure? I mean, are all of them released or when I buy one in the US to be used in Argentina I need to ask for a released one, with add costs?

    There are two versions of the current iPad, the WiFi only (which will work anywhere in the world, but only connect to WiFi networks) and the 3G/4G model. The latter will connect to 3G networks worldwide, as I understand it, but the only 4G networks it can connect to are in the US and Canada.

  • SOME SIMPLE QUESTIONS FOR ALL OF YOU

    hi,
    I have some questions for all of you.
    1. Oracle uses cgi (even asp!!! I've seen an asp page somewhere on an Oracle's site but this moment I don't remember where perhaps it is asp->cgi). Why ?
    Oracle doesn't support their techologies
    (Pl/SQL, Jsevlets,XML) ?
    2. Oracle says that has just released a
    new product for mobiles called "Portal2Go".
    I tried to install this product on NT with OAS 4.8.1.
    I had many problems during the installation and after many tries finally I did it(thanks God). but the problems continue...
    many Jsp errors (from the "tested" supplied apps). My question is:
    a. This product is in an early stage (many installation errors.. just a baby) and I think is stable for Sun Solaris but not on NT.
    b. You Oracle "experts" (i.e. oracle staff, NOT YOU guys) tell me ONE advantage to use you product (I'm an oracle developer for 6 years now):
    You say that I can PORT my existing app in any device and Web (through XML). This is a joke. Mobiles,PalmPCs,Web etc. have different requirements (content,display etc).The scope is different.. so this is absolutely FALSE (to use a boolean).
    This release is user unfrienlty. Why.. tell me WHY to pay for a product and for extra hardware (read the product technical reqs!!) to do the SAME THINK
    I do NOW with existing sources.
    I've developed an app for my company's employees using existing version of DB (8.0.5),pure pl/sql and a WAP GATEWAY.NOTHING LESS NOTHING MORE.
    please answer. Any comment welcomed...
    maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm not.
    PS.WHERE THE WAP GATEWAY/SERVER IS. I searced the cd and..nothing :-) ?
    thanks

    Portal-to-Go is a wireless portal server, the first version was released November 1999.
    The problems you describe that mobiles, Palm devices, etc all have different characteristics is one of the key reasons for Portal-to-Go. It allows any service to be displayed on any device by generating content in an appropriate format for specific devices. This way you can take into consideration the size of the screen, the display characteristics, etc.
    It is 'stable' on Solaris and NT, though it is true that the installation procedure of the CD is for Solaris only. The product is not currently available on OTN, so the installer restrictions should have been explained to you when you obtained the CD.
    Why Portal-to-Go? Here's three reasons:
    1. Inherent problems of the User Interface for a wireless device, so we provide a way personalise the UI to improve navigation and allow commonly used parameters to be saved as stored preferences through the portal.
    2. Differences in the characteristics between wireless devices make it hard to support all type without re-creating content and applications for each specific case. With Portal-to-Go, the same service can be accessed from any device.
    3. Lack of content available for WAP and other wireless devices. We have tools to quickly create wireless services from existing Web sites as well as an application platform for creating new Java or database applications for wireless devices.
    You are correct that the product does not have a WAP gateway.
    I'm not sure where you are located, but feel free to contact me offline. I can answer any specific questions, or get you contact with a local Oracle representative.
    At the moment, if anyone wants to obtain a copy of Portal-to-Go, you should contact your local Oracle representatives.

  • FOR ALL ENTRIES IN with two tables

    Hi Guy's,
    I have two int. tables, gt_likp, gt_lips.
    I need to use "FOR ALL ENTRIES IN" with this two tables.
      SELECT matnr
             vkorg
             vtweg
             ypcogsl
        FROM mvke
        INTO TABLE gt_mvke
    <b>    "FOR ALL ENTRIES IN gt_likp gt_lips"</b>
        WHERE matnr = gwa_liefpos_tab-matnr
        AND vkorg = gt_likp-vkorg
        AND vtweg = gt_lips-vtweg.
    How to do this?
    Please Help.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi,
    Fill gt_likp-vkorg values in a range(r_vkorg). Use gt_lips in FOR ALL ENTRIES.
    Basically you can use only 1 internal table with FOR ALL ENTRIES statement.
    SELECT matnr
    vkorg
    vtweg
    ypcogsl
    FROM mvke
    INTO TABLE gt_mvke
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN gt_lips
    WHERE matnr = gwa_liefpos_tab-matnr
    AND       vkorg in r_vkorg
    AND       vtweg = gt_lips-vtweg.

  • The songs on my Ipod Classic wont play at all although you can feel and hear the machinery working hard. The tracks are not playng at all but you can see the Ipod rewinding them all and returning to the album. And this happens to the second IPOD I have!

    The songs on my Ipod Classic wont play at all although you can feel and hear the machinery working hard. The tracks are not playng at all but you can see the Ipod rewinding them all and returning to the album. And this happens to the second IPOD I just got!

    First off, I would STRONGLY suggest that a external hard drive would make you life much easier by at least being able to back up your songs on the external drive for when you need them. Even if you don't want them in the iTunes library, you can have them all ready on the external to be re-added as needed. You can get 100's of gigs for under $100 shipped.
    Anyway, since you used Yamipod, are all the songs back on the computer? If so, I would go ahead and restore the iPod, let iTunes then resync everything back to the iPod, then switch it back to manual and see if the restore and resync clears up the issue.

  • How accurate is the notation feature for all of you??

    how accurate is the notation feature for all of you??
    thanks

    Hi,
    what I normally do when I'm making a score, is that I quantize the part I recorded to, say, 1/16th. If I play the quantized part, it should sound exactly what I intended. If not, I make corrections. This way, I'm pretty sure that the interpretation of the score window will be pretty accurate. Otherwise, the score could interprete a note that's a bit too early or a bit too late as a 1/32 note, and make a mess of the notes.
    When playing full piano scores, make sure to play as simple as possible, because embellishments also make messier scores.
    Kind regards,
    Jaap

    Well...I went to the modem (Westell, WireSpeed), found the NAT settings, once again, I'm WAY over my head, I am assuming this is a TCP connection (as opposed to a UDP) and per Lorex my mobile devices will use port 1025.  So I gave it a "global port range" of 1-10 and I indicated that the "base host port" was 80, 1025, & 9000 (ports 1,2,3).  When I selected the 'enable' it asked for a "host devise" my choices are my IPhone, IMac and the IP address for the dvr, so I choose the dvr.  I still cannot connect and canyouseeme still can NOT find these open ports.  This is taking up my whole day! I don't know how people figure this stuff out.
