Deleted printer on MAC OS X v 10.4.8 Acrobat 7 pro

I've deleted the printer from my printer setup utility on my Mac v.10.4.8 and the FAQ response is dedicated to Acrobat V 6, which if I follow the troubleshooting steps doesn't correspond with Acrobat 7. I'm not computer literate enough to know what to look for to reinstall the Adobe printer on my own - can anybody help with this please? In the meantime I can't convert my Word documents to PDF.
Also if someone can tell me what cat my computer is that would also be handy in navigating these forums :)
Thanks

In Acrobat go to Help>Repair Acrobat installation.
From there, the instructions should be clear (I'm not on my Mac this evening or I'd walk you through it).

Editting PDF documents that were created by a MAC doesn't work because of font incompatability. How can we get MAC fonts and load in our Adobe Acrobat Pro 9?

Editting PDF documents that were created by a MAC doesn't work because of font incompatability. How can we get MAC fonts and load in our Adobe Acrobat Pro 9?

If it's a Mac font and you're on Windows, you can't. If you are also on a Mac, you'll need to purchase the fonts (fonts are generally non-transferable, like software. One of the reasons pdf exists), install them and try your edits.
But it's best to edit the original document and create a new pdf when finished.

Print only cursor-selected area of a PDF in Acrobat Pro, just as it is psbl to do in a browser

Hi
I want to print only cursor-selected area of a PDF in Acrobat Pro. That could be both text and images, which are in my selection. Just as it is psbl to do in a browser. Is it possible in Acrobat PRO?
I am using the latest Acrobat Pro 11.0.9

Thanks for your effort but this again clearly does NOT answer my question. I do see a particular problem and that is that I might want to select text and images over a range of multiple pages. In a doc of 20 pages I might want to make a single selection of the text starting PRECISELY at the MIDDLE of page 2 and then continue dragging my selection all the way to PRECISELY the MIDDLE of page 15, thereby selecting all text and images within the precise range of my selection. That is some 13 pages there and I want to print out ONLY THAT selection of text and images. And in that case I cannot use your suggestion with the marquee zoom. Do you get me?

Changed platforms to mac and wish to use my registered acrobat pro

Have recently changed platforms to mac and wish to use my registered acrobat pro... please help

Do you have Acrobat 10 or an older version? If you have a copy of Acrobat 10 then you can complete the process detailed in Order an Adobe product platform swap or language swap to obtain a Mac OS version.
If you have an older version then you will want to purchase the upgrade to Acrobat 10. We no longer offer older versions of Acrobat.

After upgrading to Mac OS 10.6.8 my Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 (v. 9.5.2) I cannot print to a PDF

After reviewing other threads going back to at least Jan. 2012, no one seems to have a satisfactory answer. Can anyone assist with a solution?

The answer is very simple. Apple disabled the ability to create PDF by simply printing to a driver instance as part of a campaign to close what they believed to be security holes in MacOS X. If you have a way of creating PostScript from an application and saving that to a file, you of course can manually process that file with Distiller to create PDF. You can semi-automate that with Distiller's “watched folders” capability.

Unable to print multiple copies in Acrobat Pro

I am trying to print 2 copies of a 5 page PDF using Acrobat Pro 8.2.6
When i send the PDF to print 2 or more copies it goes as 1 document of 10,15,20 pages depending on how many copies I asked for.
It then prints page 1 of the second copy onto the back of page 5 of the first copy. not what I want!!!!
I have updated Acrobat to the latest version, deleted my printers including the drivers but no joy.
Any ideas?

What OS? What printer and printer driver? What are you printer driver settings?
If you have an odd number of pages in your document, you might consider adding an intentionally blank page. If your printer will not print an intentionally blank page, print a page with white text on a white background.

Can't print from Mac to Windows printer

I have a wireless network of 3 computers and a printer. One is a desktop running XP with the printer attached. The other is a laptop with XP. And the last is a MacBook with 10.4.11.
I can print from both computers running XP but I can't print from the Mac. The Mac sees the printer and I can add it and try to print from it. When I try to print I get the error message:
NTSTATUS_NOMEMORY
I later get the "Unable to connect to SAMBA host, will retry in 60 seconds" message too.

Be sure the printer name assigned in Windows is not more than 11 alphanumeric characters. Long names with punctuation and the like are known to cause problems.

Tutorial: Resolving common printer problems
Mac OS X offers a robust printing system with built-in support for hundreds of devices from a wide body of manufacturers. It's not without flaws, however, and printers often become unrecognized or non-functional after a significant Mac OS X update. Printers connected through hubs or AirPort base stations can also exhibit some frustrating issues.
Below is a run-down of the most generally successful printer workarounds. Keep trying until one of them sticks.
Use Printer Setup Repair This tool lets you verify properties of the root user, the Printing Services (lp) user, and Print Operators (lp) groups, reset the printing system, perform CUPS maintenance and more. Run through its set of maintenance tasks before delving into further printer troubleshooting. See how to use it in this article.
Re-install CUPS If you are experiencing printer issues after applying an incremental Mac OS X update, problems may have occurred with your CUPS installation during the update process.
The file is available from this Web site: http://www.cups.org/software.php, and is labeled cups-1.2.1.dmg
Delete then re-add printers/Reset printing system Open Printer Setup Utility, located in Applications/Utilities and look at the "Printer List" Highlight and delete all entries.
Alternatively, go to the "Printer Setup Utility" menu at the top of the screen and select "Reset Printing System".
Click the "Add" button and re-add your printer(s).
Gutenprint and usbtb Some users have been able to resolve printer communication issues by installing the excellent open-source Epson printer drivers available as part of the Gutenprint package (formerly known as Gimp-print) and usbtb, a CUPS back-end for USB printing.
Remove non-required drivers Removing extraneous drivers from /Library/Printers(name of manufacturer) can sometimes resolve printer issues. Remove files that are for other models than your own.
Re-install drivers Re-installation of printer drivers from original media or from a Web download (either directly through the manufacturers site or via a search by model/manufacturer on VersionTracker) can resolve some printer issues.
Try disconnecting from network In some cases, LAN-connected printer, seemingly broken by the Mac OS X update can restored to normal operation by simply disconnecting the device from the network then re-connecting it.
"Communicator Error" -- try power cycling If you receive a "Communication Error" message when attempting to print after updating to Mac OS X 10.4.5, the first workaround you should try is power cycling the printer, as well as disconnecting then re-connecting it to the Mac.
Connecting directly to the Mac If you are having printer problems and are using an external USB hub, try connecting the printer directly to your Mac.
One reader who had success with this method writes:
"Unfortunately the update to Mac OS X 10.4.6 has eliminated the ability to use my Lexmark Z600 series USB printer on my iMac G5 20" iSight (rev C).
"I resolved the problem via the following: I unplugged my external USB hub and plugged the printer directly to my computer."
Disconnect from AirPort and reset For those who are using printers connected to an AirPort Express, Extreme or another wireless device with USB connections, you might want to try the following:
Disconnect the printer from the AirPort unit (or other router)
Wait a few minutes
Plug it back in
Restart the base station unit
Check for your printer to appear in AirPort Admin Utility (located in Applications/Utilities)
Print one copy In some cases, using print one copy instead of the standard print command can result in elimination of crashes that occur during printing.
Try IP printing instead of AppleTalk Some Macs are unable to see AppleTalk printers that are located on the local AirPort (or other wireless) network. Several users have been able to workaround this issue by using IP printing instead of AppleTalk.
Last resort -- Archive and Install As a last resort, try performing the somewhat tedious Archive and Install process, then re-upgrading to Mac OS X 10.4.7. This has solved some otherwise inexplicable printer issues for MacFixIt readers.

Mac Acrobat Pro v9.4.1 will not print to HP Envy 100

Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.1 for the Mac on Mac OS X 10.6.5 or 10.6.6 was printing PDFs find to my new HP Envy 100 printer.
I have the latest driver updates on the printer.
I've tried deleting Acrobat preferences files - a common tactic to take on a Mac that clears up lots of issues. It didn't this time.
I can take the very same PDF files and print them from the Mac OS X utility Preview just fine with no issues. Try Acrobat no luck.
Not sure how to proceed right now. I see Acrobat go through the motions of printing and I even see the HP printer icon appear in the Finder dock like it does anytime you print from an application, but it quickly disappears and then the printer never does anything. Nothing is queued. It is almost as if Acrobat sent a zeroed out or null file to the printer queue.

I have the almost exact same problem. Popped up out of nowhere. When I tried to print something today wirelessly from my Macbook, the computer tried endlessly to connect to the network, but failed. Everything is fine when I directly connect the printer and the Macbook. I have now deleted that networked printer from my list and when I try to add a new printer, the system is not finding any printers.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi @Noni1948 , and welcome to the HP Forums.
I understand that you want to remove the printer software. I would like to assist.
I would suggest deleting the printer from your print system, using this document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
I would also recommend resetting your print system:

Honouring the selected Printer on Mac - how ?

Hi All,
I have the following snippit of code to first prompt the user with a print dialog, then print the currently opened PDF document.
My issue is, while settings (such as page range, duplex, etc) are all being applied - the selected printer isn't and this is causing issues
1) On one test machine - it's just not printing   (I suspect, because we initially set up the wrong printer - deleted it and added the correct one)
2) On my machine - it's always printing to my first printer even when I select one of my alternative printers.
I have the following code :
    PMSessionPrintDialog (printer_printSession, printer_printSettings, printer_pageFormat, &accepted);
    if(accepted)
        printer_rec.printSession = printer_printSession;
        printer_rec.printSettings = printer_printSettings;
        printer_rec.pageFormat = printer_pageFormat;
        UInt32 first, last, numCopies;
        PMGetFirstPage(printer_printSettings, &first);
        printer_rec.startPage = first-1;    // mac defines first page as 1, PDFL as 0
        PMGetLastPage(printer_printSettings, &last);
        if( last < first ) last = first;
        printer_rec.endPage = last-1;       // endPage is not inclusive.
        PMGetCopies(printer_printSettings, &numCopies);
        printer_rec.nCopies = numCopies;    }
Then, the actual print
    DURING
PDFLPrintDoc(doc, &printer_rec);
        success = true;
    HANDLER
        handle_PDF_Error( out );
    END_HANDLER
What am I missing so that on Mac it honours the printer the user select on Mac ?
Note : On windows, you set the 'deviceName' and 'portName'.    What's the equivalent on Mac ?
thanks
Kent.

As this is a PDFL question, you are best sending it through your designated support mechanism.

A few days ago, my HP printer software updated automatically, everything seemed fine (Mac is running Maverick, my laptop is Snow Leopard). Out of the blue yesterday, my printer stopped printing (neither Mac can connect), I have tried everything. Both the suggestion from HP and Apple, it's making me crazy I've spent most of time trying to fix it.

You tried exactly what ?
I most of the time would start with the same Apple Printer Support page tech articles
OS X Mountain Lion and OS X Lion systems will have the necessary printing software already installed, or will automatically download and install software when the printer is connected or configured. Do not install software that came with the printer as it may be out of date, and do not connect the printer to your Mac yet. Follow the instructions that came with the printer to unpack, install ink or toner, and insert paper. Finally, use the instructions in this article to connect the printer to your Mac.
Make sure the printer model is listed in Printer and scanner software, which is a comprehensive list of all printer models that have compatible software for OS X Mountain Lion and OS X Lion.

Print Jobs not clearing "Deleting - Printed" message from Print Queue

The jobs print fine but the message Deleting - Printed doesn't clear from the print queue.
The two printers having the issue are HP Color LaserJet 3550s using the External HP JetDirect en3700 (J7942A-61033).
Our Print Server is an HP BL25P running MS Server 2003 Enterprise Edition / SP2. This issue started about two weeks ago only on these printers. I downloaded the newest drive (dated 2007 version 61.63.461.41).
I have deleted and recreated the printers on the Print server and installed the new driver. Still having the same issue. To clear the Print Queue we have to restart the Print Spooler Service on the Print Server.- this causes the "Deleting - Printed" jobs to print again which could be days / weeks after they were originally printed.
We don't want to keep having to restart the Print Spooler.
Any one having a similar issue and know off a fix. I have tried everything I have so far found on the Web.
Thank you.

Hello @shumaung , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!

ITunes store says app is 'downloaded'. It's been accidentally deleted from my mac, so iTunes can't find it. How do I redownload it?

Due to changing backup disks, some apps were deleted from my mac. iTunes says it can't find them, but when I look for them on the App Store, the button says 'downloaded', and there's nowhere to click to re-download them. Where do I go from here?

Hey NeilJones,
Thanks for the question. You’ll want to delete the app from your computer (even though technically it cannot be found). Once deleted from iTunes, you can return to your purchase history and re-download it:
