Congrats Crossrulz: Finally given "Zealot" Credentials

WOW, it seams like we were congratulating Tim about this time last year on his 2000th post. (REALLY 3K posts in less than a year? Don't you have work to do?)
Seriously, Its been a pleasure trying to keep ahead of you! Keep burning up the community!

Somewhat dyslexic, I thought you became a LabVIEW Ocelot.
I'm just curious what you were thinking about to make you think I became a cat. I see the "lot" part at the end. But man that is a stretch to go from Zealot to Ocelot.
Maybe that can be our community mascot now...

Finally given up on BT

Thanks for all the help I received on this forum to help me get my BT broadband working. The trouble is, it never really did and I just lost the will to live with the foreign call centres.
Signed up to O2 and just got online today. Still got over a year left of the BT contract but even scaling down to minimum contract I'm still now paying less with O2.
And did I mention that the broadband actually now works? After months of frustration with BT this week was the final straw - downloads speed below 1Mb and even worse wi-fi connectivity within the house with iplayer dropping all the time and a stuttering connection which made it impossible for me to use ftp.
Plugged in O2 today and this is easily faster and smoother than we ever experienced with BT.
I know some of you guys here are happy with BT and the support you give to others is great - it's a pity BT can't offer the same support themselves when you ring them up.
Cheers then, off to browse at speed at long last )

No you do not need a viewing card, you need the multicast update, which is probably why you never received a card.
You could try this, it might work for you:

HT2500 Less a question, more a statement: finally given up on Mail.

I just lost TWO entire DAYS because Mail keeps dropping passwords from the Key Chain. Apple refuses to even acknowledge the problem exists, let alone fixing it, so why should I persist? Fails to live up to expectations of Apple Customer Experience… dismally.
Next: reviewing my decision to purchase iPhone 5.

FYI, I've given up on Mail about 8 years ago.

However your welcome to run through this list of fixes, it might be a simple User Permissions/KeyChain reset is in order.

Finally given up on Adobe Premier Pro

I have been working on a 10 minute HD commercial project, which would have taken me in iMove two hours, for a full 4 days in Premier Pro now (fool me). Getting messages such as, "no frame returned" and "no output generated" one moment and crashes the next (for goodness sake I am only stringing a few clips together, how difficvult can this be for a program?). One moment the sequence renders OK, the next moment the very same sequence exits when touching a clip for no reason whatsoever. Eventually it will render but then returns stretches of video showing just a black and white fields instead of movie footage. Then suddenly it crashes when moving the slider.
I am done now with CS3 for good. What a bad mistake having wasted my time with the persistent feeling that it could only be me not a quality Adobe product. Now I know the program sucks not me and I wished I had never installed it on my brand new, high-spec iMac in the first place.
I am resting all my hope now on CS5 which I have just odered, hoping that Adobe will have taken into account the latest Mac Hardware.
(I am only using Premier because of AfterEffects). If Adobe gets it wrong next time I will be using Apple products only for video, full stop, and ask for my money back.

A sidenote here,
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
I am amazed that there are so many problems at all in this day and age.
I'm not! I sort of would like that we all went back to the days of DOS (or CPM for that sake) when ALL programs had to be self-contained, with specific drivers to all the gear you had (eg. printer and so on). One problem now a days is "easy for whoever" and therefor the global drivers. Global means that one manufactorer of a program will install its priorities for whatever needed, while another manufacturer will try to install its "beneficial" properties.
Global then will sometimes mean conflicts, and that's why we, the users, unless we go a very specific way installing apps, will encouter problems.
Theoretically no problems yes, but all the SW companies are not working together.

Finally given up on iCloud email

I cannot get iCloud to deliver all my mail: the automatic filtering regularly blocks legitimate messages from reputable addresses. In fact, often iCloud classifies email from people on my address book as "junk".
After more than a year of a good fight, I give up! I followed the instructions for reporting legitimate email. For several months, I sent logs & more logs of email messages that I received on Hotmail & Gmail, that, when forwarded to @icloud account, they never made it.
Apple admits that "on rare occasions a legitimate email from a friendly source may be blocked from reaching your Inbox."
That is exactly what the "Junk" folder is for. Please place messages that are in doubt there. Apple instead blocks messages completely and I never get the chance to decide or give feedback that they are legitimate.
Until then, I must revert to my account elsewhere. Adiós @icloud.

Unable to enter a Division for which I have proper credentials, via the GUI

I have a Division which I am unable to enter, either as a student or as the full site Administrator, from the GUI.
When I log into the main Site page, I see the link for the Division (as I should - I have DOWNLOAD permissions for the Division). However when I click the link (the thumbnail image) I am always, 100% of the time, rejected and sent to the login page. Ignoring that, I still have all of my proper credentials and may continue to freely access other parts of the site.
In the past, I had this exact behavior on (1) a Division "RobotCourses:PSYC" (Psychology), and (2) my main site breadcrumb, which appears at the top of the site page to the right of the "iTunes U" breadcrumb and says "Maiko Covington @ University of Illinois..." For reasons completely unknown to me, this behavior resolved itself yesterday, clicking both of those objects works as expected, although NO one at our site with any edit access did anything on the server.
However, the same behavior has now reappeared, this time on a Division "RobotCourses:CLCV" (Classical Civilizations). Again, I have not done any editing of that Division, nor had anyone logged into it (these Divisions are in a test area where I am developing automation tools).
I am, quite frankly, stumped. But I've done some investigation.
SETUP:
The Division has identity "RobotCourses:CLCV".
This Division contains a single Course with identity "RobotCourses:CLCV:CLCV115:CLCV115All-13564".
Both the Division and the Course are restricted to properly registered academic students. I have developed automation code in a login portal which grants credentials for RobotCourses:CLCV to students registered for courses in the CLCV department (Classical Civilizations) and credentials for RobotCourses:CLCV:CLCV115:CLCV115All-13564 to students registered for CLCV 115 (Classical Civilizations 115 - Mythology of Greece and Rome) specifically.
The Permissions set on RobotCourses:CLCV in particular are:
<Permission>
<Credential>Authenticated@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu</Credential>
<Access>No Access</Access>
</Permission>
<Permission>
<Credential>gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:CLCV</C redential>
<Access>Download</Access>
</Permission>
The point is to deny access to Authenticated@ (merely authenticated students) and then specifically grant it for people given a "gakusei" credential for RobotCourses:CLCV in particular.
(Note here that "gakusei" is a Japanese word meaning "student," I am using it in my credentials to ensure that my credentials and permissions are not affected by other credentials named "student" set at upper levels and used by some live users of the site, as we do not have a segregated development environment. It is our lowest level of access beyond mere Authenticated@..., designed to give students access to download and "surf to" Divisions and Courses.)
*LOGIN: ISSUING CREDENTIALS:*
The login portal code works successfully, and so when a student "Jane Doe" logs in, she is in fact given appropriate credentials (as she is actually registered for CLCV 115 here at UIUC). From the code generating her login URL, I see:
Issued credentials:
gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:CLCV
gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:CLCV:CLCV115:CLCV1 15All-13564
gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:STAT
gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:STAT:STAT100:STAT1 00X1-13570
(You can see she is also registered for STAT 100).
With the default login URL thus generated, she is taken to the top level of the Site in iTunes, and in fact sees thumbnail links for both STAT (Statistics) and CLCV (Classical Civilizations). Clicking on STAT takes her to the STAT Division where she can then enter the Course STAT 100 with no problems.
*PROBLEM: CAN'T GET TO CLCV FROM THE MAIN PAGE IN THE GUI*
HOWEVER! Clicking on CLCV brings up the login page. If she ignores the login page, she can still access the rest of the site, including STAT, just fine. Logging in again (reissuing her credentials) does not help the situation.
Note that this is not a problem only for Jane Doe, the same thing happens for anyone in CLCV and in fact happens for me as Administrator of the whole site with full access, even.
*ACCESS DIRECTLY TO THE DIVISION BY URL WORKS*
With a slight modification to the login to allow access directly to the RobotCourses:CLCV Division (by adding the handle of the Division to the end of the location), credentials are issued exactly as before:
Issued credentials:
gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:CLCV
gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:CLCV:CLCV115:CLCV1 15All-13564
gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:STAT
gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:STAT:STAT100:STAT1 00X1-13570
and she is taken to the Division page, SUCCESSFULLY. So, it seems she actually HAS access, as expected.
*ACCESS CONFIRMED WITH DEBUGGING:*
Writing some code to generate not the actual login URL but rather a link that takes me to an "iTunes U Access Debugging" page for the Division (figured this out by reading some other posts! :)) I am taken to a page with the following:
(at generated URL https://deimos.apple.com/WebObjects/Core.woa/Browse/illinois.edu.1945806043/xxx5 64?credentials=....)
Received
Destination illinois.edu.1945806043

Signature 42ccef92a3298684a7a09eed45adb6b788a700c01645b8b423d33ace120650b0
Analysis
The destination string is valid and the corresponding destination item was found.
The identity string is valid and provides the following information:
Display Name Jane X Doe
Email Address [email protected]
Username jxdoe
User Identifier xxxxxxxxx
The credential string is valid and contains the following 4 recognized credentials:
1. gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:CLCV
2. gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:CLCV:CLCV115:CLCV1 15All-13564
3. gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:STAT
4. gakusei@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu:RobotCourses:STAT:STAT100:STAT1 00X1-13570
The time string is valid and corresponds to 2009-03-12 17:12:27Z.
The signature string is valid.
Access
Because the received signature and time were valid, the received identity and credentials were accepted by iTunes U.
In addition, the following 2 credentials were automatically added by iTunes U:
1. All@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu
2. Authenticated@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:illinois.edu
With these credentials, you have browsing and downloading access to the requested destination.
(In case you think to check the sums, be aware I've actually changed the student's name for this example.)
So, as expected, I have access, in fact the student DOES have access, visiting the Division page directly (specifiying its handle as part of the desired location).
*IT'S ONLY CLICKING THE THUMBNAIL ON THE MAIN PAGE THAT BREAKS*
Because the problem is only apparent when clicking the icon for the Division on the main Site page, I have no way (that I know of) to get any information about precisely WHAT is going on, what possibly differs in the GUI-click situation from the "generate me a URL that takes me right there" situation.
At that point I'm fully in the GUI, I'm not sending anything via web services, so I have no idea how I can proceed to debug this from here.
I'm also quite confused at the sudden appearance of this behavior, and the disappearance of this behavior from RobotCourses:PYSC, another Division that was broken in this same way all last week but which magically resumed allowing me access yesterday.
Any suggestions, hints, or advice would be very welcome. Has anyone else even seen behavior similar to this?
Thanks for any information you might have.

Maiko,
I'm confess I'm still trying to get a handle on your problem. You do a fantastic job of describing it ... but I'm just trying to picture it accurately in my head.
I think, were I in your shoes, I'd begin by looking at what the debug page has to say for the specific destination in which you're interested in fixing. In other words, I'm not clear on where, exactly, this destination points ...
Destination illinois.edu.1945806043
Is that your site, or the division within your site that you want to fix? "Normally", you do not need to specify a site handle to get to your site within your transfer CGI ... if you say "uillinois.edu", it's enough to transfer your users to iTunes U ... but every site still has a handle, and you could, if you wanted to, actually specify it in your transfer CGI. For example, this:
Destination uic.edu.1139051993
is for my entire site ... it's my site handle. Whereas this:
Destination uic.edu.1991288441
is for a division within my site ... but it's impossible to tell the difference between "site" and "division" from just the handle (I mean, if I didn't say "this is a site" and "this is a division", there'd be no way for you to know). So when I look at your creds and permissions on your debug page, I can't quite tell if they give you download access for your site, or for the specific division you want to fix. If you could open the debug page with your division as destination (or confirm that that's what we're looking at), it'd rule out some things.

Uh oh.. it's finally happened...

My Hard Drive has finally bit the dust. After months of intermitent crackling, and disk utility runs to get my PB to boot, it has finally given up and here I am on my PC!!
Few months ago I wrote about my Hard drive woes (I still believe it is my Hard drive, as I havent got a professional opinion) and I thought the problem was sorted (software prob) but it doesn't seem to be the case.
I've finally decided it needs replacing... But I need advice on what I need to get.
MacUpgrades says this: http://www.macupgrades.co.uk/store/productinfo.php?productsid=294
is compatible. Doesn't seem too expensive...but as it's the age of the internet I looked about to see if I could get it any cheaper!
Is this: http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?action=c2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZX J2aWV3&productuid=95583&LOC=UK
the same thing? but at a cheaper price?
Also any guys in London know where I can get it installed cheaply?
(i have a PB G4 15inch)
Cheers and Merry Christmas.

Sorry to hear your hard drive quit.
You have a choice of 5400rpm or 7200rpm drives. The quicker 7200rpm drives give a quicker response to disk operations and carry a price premium over the 5400rpm drives. 7200rpm drives top out at 100GB (although higher capacity drives are on the way), while 5400rpm drives top out at a higher 160GB. If you do a search of the discussions, popular choices include Hitatchi and Seagate, and some use Western Digital. Toshiba doesn't seem to have a good reputation, however. You can see a selection of drives that would work at http://www.macsales.com under 2.5" hardrives (note SATA hard drives won't work in a G4 Powerbook), and they do ship internationally if you can't find something locally.
While Apple will only install what they sell, Apple Authorized Service Centers typically will install something that you bring to them. You can find the local one in the UK at http://www.apple.com/uk/buy/locator/ and choose 'find service'.

Finally!!! iTunes recognizes my ipod!

I had been having the same problem as many of you with my ipod. iTunes would not recognize my ipod nor would it show up on "my computer" in Windows. I tried everything, the 3 r's, re-installing iTunes, re-installing WinXp, etc. I even bought a new ipod classic, thinking my old 3rd gen ipod had finally given up the ghost. When I found out the new ipod wouldn't sync either, I was thinking I had just become the proud owner of a really expensive paperweight. I had given up. BUT! The solution was so simple, I felt really stupid. All I did was upgrade my SPTD drivers and Voila! Now I'm ipodding with the best of 'em. I hope this helps somebody from pulling all of their hair out trying to figure out what is wrong. Or from throwing their ipod out the window.

Any help here?

So i run these commands to setup the pwd for Admin
SQL>@apexins SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/
SQL>@apxldimg /home/oracle
SQL>@apxchpwd <enter ADMIN password when prompted>
Some where it gone wrong. now im unable to browse apex.
Perhaps the cause of your problem was running apexins.sql and apxldimg.sql scripts ( used for the installing Apex, not changing passwords ).
As suggested, please post in the Apex forums - Oracle Application Express (APEX)
Apex 3.0 is old. I'd be installing 4.1 if I was you.
Google is also your friend. Doing a quick search will bring up plenty of blogs with step-by-step instructions on how to install and upgrade Apex.

Use Active Directory to Authenticate to OS X Server VPN

I have a Windows 2008r2 Small Business Server that I use primarily but, I have to integrate with services on my Mac Mini OS X Server.
First off, I have all updates loaded and everything runs great between both servers. My OS X server does not have Open Directory running; only services such as FTP, VPN, and File Sharing. I have joined the server to Active Directory and can log into the server as a Active Directory user. I have assigned the rights to even log on with my AD credentials to that server and be an admin. I know that everything is working fine between the 2 servers and I am pretty happy with the way it is working.
My challenge deals with authenticating to these services; specifically VPN, on the OS X server with Active Directory credentials.
When I open the server app, I go to the users section and then, I cahnge it from "local users" to "Users from 'domain.'"
Next, I select the account that I am trying to allow access to the VPN services and select it in the check mark area.
I try to log into the VPN and continually get an authentication error.
I have tried the following combinations for the login:
domain\user.name
domain.local\user.name
user.name
user.name@domain
[email protected]
None of these authentication attempts are successful.
I have successfully authenticated with a local user account that I created on the OS X server and it works flawlessly.
Has anyone ever attempted this? Has anyone ever had any success with this? I have been spinning my tires on this for 3 weeks and have finally given up and have to ask for help.
I appreciate anyone's feedback.

Using Time Capsule to backup a small office network

Hi all,
I am hoping somebody may be able to tell me if this is a good plan or not. I have been really struggling to find a good network backup solution. I've been trying to make a Lacie Ethernet Disc Mini work but have finally given up on that one.
I am trying to find a simple solution to backup a network of 5 macs. 1 is currently plugged straight into my router, another router port extends to switch in another building which has 4 further macs along with other network devices connected. Crucially, there is no wireless access from this building to the router.
Would all macs backup to the Time Capsule, including those that are wired via the switch? If so, at what speed? I have heard suggestions that it can be a very slow process?
I'm not worried about any kind of streaming - purely a good backup device.
All advice very gratefully received,
Regards
Richard

Hi Richard,
I have a small business and chose to use Time Capsule as a backup for my company's network. We have 12 workstations and use all Macs, some wireless and some not. I'm an experienced Mac sys admin and have setup many networks, including designing and installing the network we currently have, which is driven by a Leopard Server.
Based on a year of experience working with Apple's newest airport extreme and capsule products, I would not use them in business and am moving towards a wireless network hd using Carbon Copy Cloner as my software. This is due in part to numerous calls to Apple for support on these items, having to reset them dozens of times, and being told by Apple support that using these products for business is not recommended.
Carbon Copy Cloner is a great tool for a backup, especially for workstations, as you can create partitions for each computer on your HD and CCC will create *bootable* backups of your HD - a great lifesaver if a computer fails and you don't have time to reinstall everything.
I will be putting the capsule and extreme devices on Craigslist for sale and hope to recoup enough to get the wireless network drive, which my research shows is the best way to get network backup solutions for small business.
I hope this helps.

Sound problems with film made in iMovie when burned to DVD in iDVD

PLEASE HELP!!!
I have upgraded to iLife 09 and for all the bad that people have to say, I actually like it a lot. Anyway, it gave me the encouragement I needed to play with some old home movies I had stored with the aim of producing DVDs to give to my friends, and hopefully showing off the slick production values I have come up with.
So after spending a week getting to grips with iMovie and editing an old holiday film with all the cuts, transitions, chapter markers and music etc that I wanted, I ended up with an hour long movie that I was happy with.
Then to iDVD. After trying out all sorts of ways to go from iMovie to iDVD to ensure the best quality, I have finally given up trying to replicate the on screen quality of the movie in iMovie with the finished DVD, and just opted for the easy to use 'share to iDVD' option. The quality is not great, but then the footage is old anyway so not too much of an issue.
Then I spend another few days playing with and learning iDVD and again end up with a finished product that I am happy with, with nice looking menu's and a slideshow etc.
So I come to burn the final DVD, for which I pick the 'Professional burn' option which takes 4 hours but I am happy to wait if it means the best quality possible, and my DVD is done.
I then play the DVD to discover my problem - the sound in the movie is not right. To explain further, in my movie I have reduced the sound of some of the film clips to nothing and placed music over the top. When played and previewed in iMovie it works fine - the music plays and the sound that is attached the the video does not. When previewed in iDVD it works fine - just as I had edited it in iMovie. But then when I burn the DVD, some of these sounds are present again which completely wastes all my hard work at the editing stage.
I have searched and searched for help on this but am unable to find any.
Sorry for the very long description and story behind my issue, but it is massively frustrating. Basically, at some point during the 'burn to DVD' stage in iDVD it decides to completely ignore most of the sound edits I have made on the movie in iMovie.
If anyone can help it would be much appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.

Many thanks. Looking at that thread it looks like there are a few others having the same issue as me. Might be to do with not using the predetermined rates for clip slowdown and inputting my own.
The frustrating thing is that I have only done this once right at the start of my hour long movie and if I change it now it with though the timing of my whole film out.
Not much else I can do though I suppose.

Having very difficult time transferring pictures and videos from iPhone 4s to Windows 7!

Hello, after spending over 6 hours trying to transfer all of the files from my 64 gb 4s I have finally given up and decided to seek help here because I have researched just about every help site and/or forum site and there just doesn't seem to be a logical answer.
First I tried using a program called "Phone to PC" and it would keep giving me an error that my iTunes was not open and it was clearly open. It asked me to restart my computer and try again and still no go!
Then I paid for an app called Photosync which seemed to work great at first but anytime a video would try to transfer 100/100 times it would error out towards the end of the file transfer saying that my WiFi connection lost when everything was looking good on my end.
Then I read a post somewhere to use drop box and I went ahead and paid the $9.99 price for 100gb and I'm literally transferring the pictures as we speak and the sad thing is that it is only uploading the pictures in my Camera Roll and not in my photo library.
So I have about 400 pictures in my camera roll and 4,149 pictures in my photo library. It seems as if I have no problems at all getting the pictures from my camera roll but for the life of me I cannot get to the photo library.
When I click on the iPhone from "My Computer" the only files that show up are my camera roll.
I can't believe I am having such a hard time getting these files transferred! I damaged my old laptop that had all those pictures on it and went and bought a terabyte to back everything up on in case I lose my iPhone and I have wasted almost an entire day trying to figure out and I cant seem to find any answers.
Could someone please make me feel like the biggest idiot and tell me there is an easy way and that I was just completely blind???
These pictures mean so much to me...most from my wedding, honeymoon, birth of my son, and my sons whole first year.
The videos are equally important as the videos are the reason for my 64 gb only having about 4 gb left
PLEASE HELP ME

Have you tried transferringing the videos via usb (sinc you're having trouble transferring them with PhotoSync) as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 and just transferring the photos with PhotoSync?

Can't update Apps. Wants me to verify old Apple ID that no longer exists.

This is really annoying. . . I go to update my apps in my iPad & iPhone but when I go "Update All" it asks me to sign in with my old Apple ID (that email address no longer exists). Even if I put in the old password associated with that old ID it tells me I need to verify that Apple ID and that an email has been sent to that old email address (that no longer exists!). It's crazy as I have not used that address for years and two years ago I associated that old ID with my new email address, but I couldn't change my Apple ID to reflect my new email address so it just kept the old address but my receipts were being sent to the new email address. .. confusing, but it worked. Now I have a @me.com address and an Apple ID that utilises my @me.com account, but even when I sign out of iTunes/App Store and sign back in with my new Apple ID, I cannot update apps. . . I can purchase news apps, but I can't update anything.
I'd really like some help here. I have gone to the Apple ID webpage and tried to log in to the old address in order to delete it or whatever but when I do it says it is trying to verify that email address (which it can't as it no longer exists), so when I option to put in another email address for it to send the verification to (my @me.com account) it says "You cannot create an Apple ID using a MobileMe account. If this is your email address, it is also your Apple ID.". . . . . yes, I know that is my Apple ID. . . that;s the one I want to use. If anyone can tell me how to get rid of the old Apple ID/email address I'd be very grateful.

I appreciate exactly where you're coming from. I've been fighting a similar battle for some six months now and I've finally given up. The problem is that, contrary to the semantics on the Apple ID management page, your up-to-date email address is not the primary address. The ID name is the primary address and what's alleged to be primary is actually secondary. I learned this the hard way when I was trying to fix an issue with a very old ID that did NOT have an email address as a name. I changed to to reflect the (old) address and I made matters worse and I can't go back!
In my case, I have a whole slew of free apps on the old ID and maybe US$40 or US$50 worth of paid apps. Little by little I'm deleting the free apps and obtaining them again with the current ID. When I finish that, I'll probably bite the bullet and pay again for the other apps.

HP Officejet 5610 All-in-One not printing true colours

The HP help people have finally given up on trying to make my Mac see the Color Options tab in their print software with my set-up. They now say, "It's an Apple problem". If I could see these settings I'd be able to adjust the HP defaults for print-outs (by saturation, brightness, density, hue, contrast, etc) once and for all so I'd get closer to what I see on screen printed out in front of me. Without them I have to change everything on a trial and error basis each time in Photoshop. I've read about it in the HP manual and seen it work on another (cheaper) HP printer on a similar Intel iMac but with the All-in-One I just get the screen saying "No User Selectable Settings" - which HP say should not be the case. Anyone have any ideas? This screen seems to be vital - unless of course there's a better way of synchronising the perfect image I see on screen with what I get out of this printer?

I have seen this case with hp printers on the intel macs as went the intel macs came out hp's driver release was set for June as that is when the intel macs were suppose to be released i know the new software version 7.9 which is universal fixes all of these issues on the intel based macs.
Just make sure you run the hp uninstaller first HD/Applications/Hewlett Packard
Here is the link for the lates driver
