CUPS - Store username in Device URI no longer works?

Previously, i.e. OS 10.6.7, you could store a username in the Device URI in /etc/cups/printers.conf as shown below:
smb://username:password@server_name/queue_name
This was quite handy as it meant that users were not prompted to enter a username and password.
However, in OS 10.7 (CUPS 1.5.0) this no longer works and results in:
D [21/Oct/2011:18:44:38 +1100] [Job 23] Backend returned status 1 (failed)
D [21/Oct/2011:18:44:38 +1100] [Job 23] Printer stopped due to backend errors; please consult the error_log file for details.
D [21/Oct/2011:18:44:38 +1100] [Job 23] End of messages
D [21/Oct/2011:18:44:38 +1100] [Job 23] printer-state=5(stopped)
D [21/Oct/2011:18:44:38 +1100] [Job 23] printer-state-message="Invalid printer name"
I'm wondering if there is some CUPS setting I need to change for this to start working again.
Please note: Turning on the Guest Account in Windows is unacceptable as is saving a Username and Password in a Key Chain.

It looks like you need to specify the port in the URL, even though the protocol is specified. Bit silly if you ask me.

I have an ipod touch it is either a second or third edition and i have just had to restore it to factory setting as it was not working and now the wifi on the device is no longer working. Is there anything i can do about this?

i have an ipod touch it is either a second or third edition and i have just had to restore it to factory setting as it was not working and now the wifi on the device is no longer working. Is there anything i can do about this?

Is it this:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Otherwise:
Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I just took my I-Pod touch to a computer repair shop to replace cracked screen and now am told main part of I-Pod needs to be replaced.volume button no longer works, headphone and locking device also no longer working. Even though it all worked when given

I just took my I-Pod touch to a computer repair shop to replace a cracked screen. Told it need the main part to it. They said the volume button, headphone and locking part no longer worked. Told me to pick it up. When I gave it to them all components were working. Said because they weren't able to fix it there was no charge. Don't understand this.

Probably when you dropped, kicked, smashed, threw, or whatever you did to break your screen it also damaged the logic board and the connections to the volume button, headphone jack and sleep button. Happens all the time. Apparently the shop you selected to work on it is not very good so take them off your shopping list.
Then go buy a 5th Generation iPod Touch.

HT201065 how can i de-authorize devices which no longer work or have been disposed of?

how to de-quthorize a device which does not work

You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
For more information on authorization and de-authorization: iTunes Store- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC.

Cannot create account "The device is no longer eligible for creating an Apple ID."

I just updated my MacBook Pro but an unable to create an iCloud account. I attempted to sign in (as prompted after updating)...but it says:
"This device is no longer eligible for creating an Apple ID."
I know my username and password or correct. I have never signed up for iCloud or MobileMe in the past. My login and password work elsewhere (ie. Apple.com, iTunes, App Store, etc.)
I should have my new phone on Friday, wanted to try this out before I got the phone.
Actual OS is 10.7.2...not an option on the drop-down.

Hello
Give it some time. iCloud "just" went online and although big companies should be aware, that a bazillion of users will register / subscribe on Day One of a new feature, in most cases (like Sony's PSN, Microsoft and others) these things never work out as planned.
So be patient and wait a few hours or even some days and then give it a try. I'm pretty sure the whole iCloud Network is right now under "heavy fire".

My iPhone is not recognised by iTunes [iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. This device is no longer connected]

When I plug my iPhone 4 in to my MacBook Pro, it charges but it is not recognised in iTunes.
After about 30 seconds I get the following message:
"iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. This device is no longer connected."
The device still charges but is not recognised.
I've obviously tried restarting both devices / programs. I'm running the laters versions of iTunes and iOS on my iPhone. I've tried all the steps in the troubleshooting pages, and i've re installed iTunes. Stil no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I am having a very similar issue with my iPhone 5.
Yesterday I took it to the Apple Store as the battery was draining rapidly, and had the phone restored from an iCloud backup. Everything but my music was synced, and when I returned home to sync my music, the iPhone is only being recognised by iPhoto and I am having error messages from iTunes that the iPhone is not recognised and is unresponsive. I have tried everything I have found online, including trying to connect my phone to my work computer with similar messages.
Please help!

Autocomplete no longer working on my iOS devices even though it works on my MacBook Air

I migrated all of my settings and info to a new macbook air from an older macbook air a few days ago. Now the mail "to" field only autocompletes addresses on the Air, but it no longer works on my iPad or iPhone. When I open the address book on the iOS devices, the email addresses are still intact. All of the software is up to date. Have spent hours today trying to figure out how ot fix this.
Can anyone please help me with this? I work at a tech company, but even the former apple engineers I asked are not sure how to fix this one. Could this be an iCloud issue? iOS software bug?

It could well be an iCloud issue.
Are your contacts stored in iCloud? This article makes it sound like that's required for autocompleting addresses in mail on your iPhone.
iCloud: Store and find email addresses

I have the same problem.
Two similar discussions:

I have not yet seen any official response to the question: "Is the Apple AV Composite cable fully supported with 30pin connector devices upgraded with iOS7 - specifically ? - eg. iPad 2, iPhone 4, iPhone 4s"
If it is not currently supported is that then due to a bug / oversight and in that case is it something that will be fixed in the near future?
Please let us know what feedback you got from asking Apple support.

I got this iPad as an open box deal on bestbuy, it says the device is no longer eligible for creating a free iCloud account. How do I fix this?

I got this iPad as an open box deal on bestbuy, it says the device is no longer eligible for creating a free iCloud account. How do I fix this?

You cannot fix it. Nobody can. There is a limit to how many free iCloud accounts that can be created on one iOS device and the limit is three. Obviously, this device reached that limit which means that this open box iPad was most likely owned by someone else or customers that used theiPad in the store got cute and created iCloud accounts on it and then deleted them.
So that's why deggie is recommending that you return the iPad to Best Buy and get your money back. You bought a device that should have never been sold to you.

Where is Power Search on the Itunes Store site? I can no longer find it.

Sharing an app does not give a copy of the app to anybody else, you will only be sharing an image of the app.
It's possible that the developers of those apps have temporarily (e.g. if there is a problem with them or they are putting an updated version in the store) or permanently removed them from the store. Any links that the developer's have on their website should take you to the store, that is the only place that you can download apps for iOS devices.
You could try contacting the developers and see if they are planning on putting their apps back in the store, until if/when they do then your friends won't be able to download them (and you won't be able to redownload them, so if you haven't already done so you may want to copy the app to your computer's iTunes library).

Cant get this app to go away in my app store cant update bc its no longer avabile helppp

in my app store cant update bc its no longer avabile helppp

i had the same issue, heres what i did and it resolved my problem...
Make sure iTunes and app store both are closed...
Open Finder > Navigate to the side panel, look for Macbook Pro or Air under devices tag (e.g. John's MacBook Pro)
Then go to Macintosh HD > Applications > Right click ''iTunes'' and click Get Info
Then scroll down to ''Sharing and permissions'' and make sure to make urself able to "read & write"
Then right click "iTunes" and click "Move it to Trash" and empty your trash...
Finally go to www.apple.com > Download new iTunes > Once installation finishes, open AppStore and navigate to "Updates"
and viola..... the badge is gone!!!!
You are welcome!!!

After installing Firefox 4, the credential manager that stores and activates passwords is no longer functioning. According to the prograg, I am "logged on". Ideas?

My HP Compaq has a "program" called ProtectTools Security Manager that stores usernames and passwords of various websites that require passwords. This "program" worked on the former version of Firefox but once I upgraded to Firefox 4 this is no longer entering my username/passwords when I access the appropriate websites. The "program" states I am "logged on".

Iphone 4 since upgrade to ios 5.1.1 no longer works with made for itunes, iphone devices.

Ever since I upgraded to IOS 5.1.1 my Iphone no longer works for playing music thorugh my Apline car unit, My Logic 3 clock radio, and a Next made for ipod device.
I can sync through ITunes on the PC and can also play videos through the HDMI adapter.   My wifes iphone 4s and the kids hand me down iphone 3s still play fine through these made for Itunes , Ipod , Iphone devices.
I want to downgrade back to the prior IOS I had before Apple encouraged me to install this bugged one.   How do I go about getting a legit non jailbroken prior IOS version installed on my Iphone?
Is Apple aware of this issue , as I have seen blogs about this it is affecting other people?   Will this issue be resolved with ios 6?
Can I get the beta ?
Thanks,
Douglas

Agreed. Same thing here. Just bought a late model Alpine INE-S920Hd and it is all kinds of broken. I think this is happening because Apple shifted the music and video. Totally buggy. Bluetooth refuses to work properly, too. A2dp keeps stealing the audio from Pandora in the Alpine interface. The ipod controls dont work at all.

I have had a 3GS for 2+ years. After upgrading to IOS 4 (now 4.3.5) I began having problems. In the past week, my screen went to the itunes logo and USB cable twice -- unprovoked -- just found it sitting there like that! I connected to itunes and it did restore from a backup but it is a major inconvenience. I am also searching for answers, but better back-up regularly!
