Documents\*.pdf port missing from printer list

Hello All,
I have Acrobat X installed on my work computer which is Dell running Windows 7. I downloaded the free trial of Acrobat XI to check it out. Don't think I need to shell out the money but it was nice. Anyway, when I uninstalled Acrobat XI I lost the ability to print to pdf which is a feature I use very often.
So I googled the problem and found this helpful forum: Re: Manually installing PDF Printer
Unfortunately, in step 4 it asks me to select Documents\*.pdf as the port and it's not listed in the dropdown menu. This computer was given to me with Acrobat X on it and I don't have any of the original licensing info so I'm afraid to simply uninstall-reinstall that since I might not restore it properly.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
-Dan

use belarc advisor to recover your acrobat x serial number, Belarc Advisor - Free Personal PC Audit, for software, hardware and security configuration information on your computer.…
once you have that safely saved, reinstall acrobat x over your current installation. you probably won't need that serial number, but it would be nice to have.
or you can also use a free pdf printer like doPDF which i've used for years, Free PDF Converter - Print to PDF with doPDF

Why is my com port missing from my list of VISA devices

Hello all,
I have an Agilent E5810 ethernet to GPIB gateway. I installed Agilent IO library and chose to make Agilent my primary VISA because otherwise the devices on the gateway didn't show up in my VISA device list. Now all of my GPIB devices show up (local and via gateway) but my com port is missing. The com port is actually a USB to serial adapter. It shows up in device manager as CP2101 uart interface COM6. I reloaded NI-VISA but COM6 still oesn't show up. I reloaded Agilent IO and unchecked "make Agelent primary VISA" but that didn't fix it. It is also missing from MAX. I added COM6 ASRL6 but VISA doesn't see it
I think the root of my problem is getting Agilent VISA and NI VISA to work together but why won't my com port show up?
Thanks alot

Hello,
Can you please follow the steps outlined in the following forum post and reinstall NI-VISA and Agilent VISA?

Adobe PDF missing from printer list in all cs4

No option to save files, content/file type missing from Applications list

I want to be able to click a link to a file and have the option to Open the file with a specified application.
When clicking on the file I want to Open with a specified application, I only get a Save or Cancel option.
When I look in Preferences > Applications, the file type is missing from the list.
This was working. It is not working anymore. It is not a problem with the website. I need to know where in the FF settings I can change this.

I'm not sure of the solution on Windows. But this worked for me on Linux.
I needed to edit mimeTypes.rdf
See the links below for details. The first one was someone having a problem with Transmission. I was having a problem with ktorrent, so I just adapted that. If you're having a problem with a different file type, then you'll need to adapt it differently. But the general idea is the same.

Also, I suspect that FlashGot or some similar download manger plugin was responsible for screwing this up. I haven't confirmed it yet, but I've seen some things that make me suspect it.

I loaded a lot of music from my CDs on to my iMac at home. All my music is stored on the cloud. So why is the music on my MacBook Pro different. The CDs are missing from this list.

I loaded a lot of music from my CDs on to my iMac at home. All my music is stored on the cloud. So why is the music on my MacBook Pro different. The CDs are missing from this list. The iTunes account details I use on both computers is the same.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the reply.
I think you ave sorted my problem with your question. I thought that as my iTunes account was on their server (Cloud) and I had previously added CDs which showed up, that all my music was "on the cloud". I used to use Match but when I turned it off lost all my music that I had previously loaded onto my computer.
So I guess I have to use the cloud again to access my songs. This is frustrating as I fly a lot and can not use the music (Cloud based) when the phone is in flight mode as there is no internet.
So how then do I retrieve all my music to my iMac and have my laptop synced so they are the same?
I am totally confused now.

Having synced my ipod, there are certain artists missing from the list on the ipod, but the tracks are there under the songs list. Any reason why and how do i correct this. Thanks.

We'll assume for now, that all the songs and albums in your iTunes Library are correctly labelled (dangerous assumption, by the way!), and that a Compilation album is one with songs by different artists. Unfortunately, the music industry (bless their little cotton socks!) often mark an album by one artist, that has a collection of their songs from old albums, as a compilation! iTunes doesn't think it is!
The missing artists will be those who only appear on Compilation albums. For example, if you have one song by Fleetwood Mac in your Library, and it's on a multi-artist Compilation album, then Fleetwood Mac will not be listed in the Artists menu. But, if you then import a Fleetwood Mac album (or even a Fleetwood Mac single) into your Library, then not only will Fleetwood Mac appear under Artists, but the song by them in the Compilation album will also be listed.
One way to sort this out is to remove the Compilations option from the Main Menu and the Music Menu on your iPod. To do this, go to Settings/Main Menu/Compilations and press the Select (centre) button to turn off the tick. Then repeat this in the Settings/Music Menu/Compilations.
You should now find the missing artists listed in the Artists menu.
By the way, I now routinely check all albums I import from CD into my iTunes Library. Before I start the import procedure, I make sure that Compilation CD is turned on (highlight the album in the import window and right-click/Compilation CD) if it really is a multi-artist CD - and off if it's a single artist CD. Once imported, I manually change the album info to; (highlight album and select ) File/Get Info/Info/Album Artist has "Various Artists" in the box. Make sure it's the Album Artist box, not the Artist box.

Standard TCP/IP Port missing from drop down "Create a new port and add a new printer"

Somehow someone was on my print server and made some changes or added some software. I found that the "HP Universal Print Monitor" was my only other choice besides Local Port when I went to add a new printer on my 2012 print server
"Standard TCP/IP Port" was gone. I ended removing this from the registry (see below) as I could not find any other way to uninstall it. After this was removed I did reboot and I can still add a normal Standard TCP/IP Port under print
management in the ports section but this option is gone in the drop down when you add a printer under printers.
Any idea how to get this option back into the drop down list?
HKLM\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\CONTROL\Print\MONITORS\HP Universal Print Monitor

I followed these instructions and everything is correct and still do not have the tcp/ip option
Restore missing Standard TCP/IP Port type for Printer
Filed under:
Tips n Tricks — Rahul Patel @ 5:01 pm
If the TCP/IP port option is missing you need to re-add it.
First, make sure that the following files are in C:\Windows\System32\:
tcpmib.dll
tcpmon.dll
tcpmon.ini
tcpmonui.dll
If they are missing, you will need to copy them there from either the i386 directory (if you have one) or from the original install CD.
Then, copy the following lines to NOTEPAD and save the file to your desktop as “printer.reg”
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors\Standard TCP/IP Port]
      “Driver”=”tcpmon.dll”
      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors\Standard TCP/IP Port\Ports]
“LprAckTimeout”=dword:000000b4
“StatusUpdateInterval”=dword:0000000a
“StatusUpdateEnabled”=dword:00000001
Once it’s saved to your desktop, double-click printer.reg and say “OK” to the warning that you will be adding the keys to your registry.
Reboot the Server and the TCP/IP port option should be back.

Is it possible to remove Adobe PDF 8.0 from the list in "Add Printers"

When I add a printer on my system, there is a printer named "Adobe PDF 8.0" on the Add Printer list. I believe that this is a remnant left over from previous versions of the operating system (from Leopard or so). Can this item be deleted from this list? It isn't functional at all, and I'd rather not have it cluttering up the list. I've searched through the system looking for anything that could be causing this item to be listed there, but there appears to be no .PPD file or any entry in a .plist file that I can find. I've seen other people asking about this printer, but more from the perspective of "how to get it working" or "how do I print to PDFs now?". That isn't my question. I just want to nuke this item from my "Add Printers" list like it never happened. Thanks for any leads you can offer.
See screen shot below if you are confused as to what I am talking about. The top "Adobe PDF 8.0" is from my computer. The second one is something someone is incorrectly sharing from their computer (which I will remove as soon as I get access to it).

I tried manually removing some files but still the Adobe PDF 8 appeared in the Add Printers > Default view.
I then ran the Adobe Acrobat uninstaller and this successfully stopped the Adobe PDF 8 "printer" from appearing. Thankfully the Uninstaller also created a log file that I have posted below showing all that was removed from the Mac. Note that you probably don't have all the files listed, especially if you have already removed Acrobat 8 from this Mac, but if you remove the files that are remaining then this will be sure to stop the printer from appearing.

Workflow status is missing from the List after make some change in workflow

Hi,
We have this strange situation where the workflow status is missing from List views. Here is the situation:
Now if I check the All List view of this list, I can see these workflows that shows the status of the workflow - say "In progress", "Completed" etc.
When i make some workflow modification and after i save and publish. The workflow status in List will missing.
This issue happening is intermittent.
Why does this happen?
Any workaround/findings for the above scenario are much appreciated.
Thanks
JWei

Hi JWei,
The workflow status column gets created when you first create the workflow and its first instance runs. The columns gets removed (and disappears from the view) if you delete the workflow or remove all instances of the wf on the list.
Please check whether you created some lookup columns in this list. If yes, please increase the lookup threshold for that web application in Central Administration.
Please create a new view which only contains the Title column and Workflow Status column, modify the workflow, check the workflow status column in the new view, compare the result.
Please create a new list, create a workflow, and test again, compare the result.
Please check if the link below is useful for you:
