Error -50 with Canon MF9170, Mac OSX 10.6.4

Hi all!
This is my first post ever in this forum - I'm quite new to Mac OS.
I am trying to install a Canon multifunctional colour laser printer MF9170 (amlost the same as MF8450) under 10.6.4 (Mac Pro 3,1) with the Canon UFR II V2.10 driver (networ install). I repeatedly get an error "-50". After hours on the telephone with the Canon helpdesk I have no idea what to try next. The printer is running perfectly under Linux
Here is what I tried so far:
- Installation attempt on a factory-new MacBook pro i5
- Installation via USB
- Installation attempts with all available UFR II drivers from NZ and Europe
- Fixed permissions on HD
- Set printer queue name as "LD" as PAHU suggested
I can ping the printer, it shows up on my web browser so I guess the network config is fine. I made it print once but the next day after rebooting the Mac -50 started to show again. Canon helpdesk is at it's wits end and so am I. Does somebody has had a similar problem or could help me out here?
Thanks a lot to everyone taking the time to read this!

Hello Jorg,
Thanks for the detailed information. That clears up things for me and it tells me that you do have a direct connection - in that the Mac connects directly to the MF via Ethernet with only the switch in between - which is fine.
Regarding the subnet, what you have shown is the subnet mask and this determines the subnet. A subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 means that the first three sets of numbers in the IP address is the subnet and the last number is the network address. For a mask of 255.255.0.0, only the first two sets of numbers are the IP subnet while the last two are the network address.
For example, an IP address of 192.168.0.10 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 means that the subnet is 192.168.0 while the network address is 10. Without a gateway/router, all devices need to be on the same subnet if they are to communicate with each other. That said, since you are able to connect to the internal web page of the MF, this would indicate that your MacPro and the MF are on the same subnet - which should be the case if you are using DHCP.
But what you may have is some sort of blocking from the switch or Little Snitch that is stopping the non-standard port used by the bidirectional communication - although since the Linux server is working then this would rule out the switch. Note that the standard ports of 80 for web pages and 515 for the LPD port are usually open by default, hence those items are working, but the comms by the UFR2 driver are usually non-standard, like 47545 for the bigger imageRUNNER devices. I will need to check what port the UFR2 communicates on tomorrow and reply. This could be the cause. If the machine supported some other printer language then we could at least try one of the Generic drivers - like PCL. But looking at Canon specs it shows that the model is UFRII only so we have no alternative we can try.
Can you confirm that the Linux server is using the UFR2 driver and if you are using the 'cngplp' command to print from the server. Can you also reassure me that you are not connecting to the Linux server from the Mac, but entering the IP address of the printer for the LPD queue.

HT4587 I downloaded Airport Express Utility 5.6 to get my Airport Express to work with the latest Mac OSX 10.7.4, but when I install and run it, it still says my Airport Express is out-of-date and needs the 5.6 utility.

I downloaded and installed Airport Express Utility 5.6 to get my old Airport Express to work with the latest Mac OSX 10.7.4, but when I install and run it, it still says my Airport Express is out-of-date and needs the 5.6 utility. What's up?

It is likely that you downloaded AirPort Utility 5.6.1. If you checked the requirements, this only runs on Leopard or Snow Leopard Macs.
You have Lion, so you need AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion

Yes/No/perhaps. All depends on the specifics of the system and its configuration. most stuff should work, but of course there always could be compatibility issues.

Try using VLC or installing both QuickTime 7 and Perian. Nothing will work with all AVIs; some of them require codecs not available for Mac OS X.

When dual-booting with Windows 7, Mac OSX time settings reset every reboot.

I have recently installed Windows 7 Professional on my mid 2010 MacBook Pro via BootCamp (Running Mavericks BTW). Everything runs grean and have not experienced any problems on the Windows side, but I have a problem with Mac OSX now. When I am using Windows 7, and I reboot into Mac OSX, I find that my time settings are wrong. It seems like my time zone has changed, because the date is correct, as well as the minutes, but the hour is always wrong. When I go to Date & Time in System Preferences, and my time zone is correct, but I still have to chage the hour in the time. Any ideas as to why this is happening and how to stop it would be greatly appreciated.

If you dual boot your Windows PC with OS X or Linux, you may have experienced a problem in which your clocks reset themselves incorrectly every time you boot into Windows. Here's a simple registry edit to fix that.
Essentially, the incorrect clock setting happens because OS X and Linux use GMT time while Windows tries to synchronize with your local time zone, getting confused when you reboot between the two. Apple's own Boot Camp drivers for Windows are supposed to fix this problem, though some users have noticed that it still happens even with the drivers installed, and some Linux users are left out in the cold. Furthermore, if you have a Hackintosh, you can't install the Boot Camp drivers, so you'll need to find another way around the problem.
To fix it, just hit Start and type regedit.exe in the search box. Hit Enter and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation. Right click anywhere in the right pane and hit New > DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name it RealTimeIsUniversal, then double click on it and give it a value of 1.
Lastly, reboot into OS X, then reboot back into Windows. You should now notice that your clock actually displays the correct time.

Big issues with the new MAC OSx RDP client; crashes with Excel formattings or open Libre Office

Issue with the recent MAC OSX 10.7.5 update

The recent MAC OSX 10.7.5 update rendered my WD external backup disk unusable. The iMAC only recognizes it as read-only now despite having 2 TB of available space. It doesn't even show on my desktop anymore. I have tried disk repair but it couldn't be repaired. Any suggestions?

Copy these commands into TextEdit, replace the bracketed part with your username and the quoted parts with the ext HD's name, retaining the quotes.
sudo chflags 0 /Volumes/"name of ext HD"
sudo chmod a+rx /Volumes/"name of ext HD"
sudo chown -R <your username w/o brackets>:admin /Volumes/"name of ext HD"
Launch the Terminal app in /Applications/Utilities, copy and paste the first one into the window that pops up, and hit the return key. When the Password: prompt pops up, carefully type in your admin password, since nothing shows on the screen, and hit the return key. Copy & paste the other two, one at a time, following each with hitting the return key. You won't get the password prompt, since the initial one's good for five minutes.
Quit the Terminal app and you should be able to read and write to the ext HD. This assumes there's no OS or Time Machine backup on the HD. If there is, don't run the third command.

Errors running Java app on Mac OSX

Hello,
I've written a Java application and packaged it as a JAR file that runs fine on Windows. When I try to run it on
Mac OSX, though, I get the following error:
% java -jar Clavis.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
java/awt/KeyEventDispatcher
at Clavis.main(Clavis.java:7)
I'm assuming this means that the program needs and is somehow not getting access to the java.awt.* classes it requires. How can I tell it where they are? Is it possible to do this within the JAR file so that users don't have to configure this manually?
Five dukes for the first good answer!
Thanks much--
David

From Apple's Java FAQ:
Q: When will Apple have an implementation of J2SE 1.4 available?
A: A Java 1.4 Developer Preview was released at WWDC2002 to all seeded ADC members. This pre-release has only been qualified against the WWDC Jaguar seed, and has not been qualified against any other seeds/builds, including the final release of Mac OS X 10.2. It is for this reason that the WWDC preview has remained unavailable to ADC members, even though Jaguar has shipped.
The product development cycle includes plans to seed an additional, more complete prerelease version of J2SE 1.4.1 to developers. Specific dates for releases have not been determined and are in part dependent upon Sun's release schedule. Please note that J2SE 1.4.x will not be available in any form for versions of Mac OS X prior to 10.2.
If it follows the same pattern as past releases, the answer to your question will probably be months, albeit a low number of them, from Sun's official release date of 1.4.

Which Firefox version fits best with iMac G5 + Mac OSX 10.5.8?

I made a mistake.
I installed Safari 5.0.6 with loss of good functioning of the browser (lay out not any longer the same as with Safari 4) because my iMac G5 (with PPC) runs under Mac OSX 10.5.8. The computer refuses reinstallation of the older version (Safari 4).
The temporary solution in my idea is using Firefox in the adapted version. Could you tell me which one?
Thanks for help.

Firefox 3.6.x is the last available from Mozilla for PPC Macs. <br />
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

Audio/midi interface compatibility with Logic Express Mac osx 10.6.5

hi all, I'm looking for a compatible audio/midi interface to use with the latest mac os. I recently purchased a Ediroll UA25 but was unable to get it working . I installed the latest drivers from the Roland site but when plugged in it just wasn't being recognised. I sent it back and got a full refund but now I am insure if the Ediroll was faulty or if it wasn't compatible with os 10.6.5. I am now in the process of looking to purchase another interface but am looking for help from you guys.
Thanks in advance,
kiev

Hi,
just out of curiousity: did you use the UA-25 or the UA-25EX? I know the 25EX has a driver switch on it's back where you can enable a standard driver which should be compatible to OS X without an additional driver.
However, i didn't find another interface including a compressor except for the Yamaha Audiogram 6, if you need this feature.
If you don't need it, buy a MOTU, preferably with firewire, or a Presonus. If you want quality, maybe an Apogee Duet. I myself - due to shortage of funds - still use either my Tascam Fireone or my Alesis I/O 2. The Alesis sounds nice for it's price, but i won't buy any of these lower end interfaces anymore. You get what you pay for. I also used the Edirol UA-25EX for a time, but this was before snow leopard, so i can't really say "Yes or No", but it was definitely a very good interface compared to it's price. I won't recommend M-Audio, however, but others like it.

You need Snow Leopard at least.

Continual problems with AAM/CC6 (Mac OSX)

I have been struggling for weeks trying to get AAM/CC6 working correctly (Mac OSX), following your Creative Community forum recommendations/discussion threads. But it just continues to be unreliable and buggy.
Current issues: My (Mac OSX) Application Manager shows that "Acrobat Pro XI" and "Muse" are installed on my system. But both are not installed on my system. When I try and do a manual download/install for Acrobat Pro XI, I get to the "Please Choose the copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro to update." But since it's nowhere on my system, I cannot continue and install. So I have no Acrobat Pro or Muse on my system. How can I get Acrobat Pro and Muse installed, and resolve these endless AAM/CC6 problems?

Hi tom_inLA,
Please download Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool from this Link and run the same. Once done please login to creaative.adobe.com and download Creative Cloud Desktop App.
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
It should show you Acrobat XI and Muse to install.
Please let me know if it helps
regards,
Abhijit

Getting an Error with EventGateway in Mac OSX 10.8

Two machines, both fresh ColdFusion installs. Set up a Gateway Instance named cfflexgw. Point it to a working CFC and the local cfg file. When I send a simple message to the gateway, I get the following error:
Unable to find the Flex adapter for destination ColdFusionGateway in the RMI registry on localhost:1099.
Multiserver 9.0.2. Using the base cfusion instance, and I did not alter any of the xml config files yet. This code worked on 9.0.1 (and is still working) in OSX 10.7. I also tried a stripped down CFC and message. Any help yoiu can provide is appreciated! Remoting is working fine BTW, just not sending message from CF via the ColdFusionGateway.
Thanks,
Nic

I was able to solve this. I wrote a blog post so it hopefully saves someone else time. I still have no idea why this setting would need to be changed, so perhaps a CF Engineer can explain it for my future education.

EXC_BAD_ACCESS error when opening PS2 on Mac OSX 10.4-who's problem is it?

About three weeks ago I got an error message when trying to open PS2 which said
"Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0xcde25b88"
So I called Apple Care-they replaced my hard drive. I get my Mac back last night and go to open PS and I now get this error message:
"Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000000"
So do I call Apple again or is this an Adobe issue? Should I reinstall PS2? All the other parts of Creative Suite run just fine. I'm irritated and confused and sadly not really savvy enough to know what's going on. :-(
thanks in advance!

When Apple replaced your HD, did they or you, re-install the software that was on your old Drive?
If you made a clone of your old HD and copied it back, you probably brought back all of your old troubles with it!
I suggest that you remove CS2 entirely; then run Disk Warrior to repair all of your Dirctories and then do a fresh installation of CS2 from the original DVD.
Just be sure that you have saved any Actions and other personal Presets somewhere safely before trashing CS2.

Trouble with baReadIni on Mac OSX

I’m trying to diagnose this problem remotely so
I’m sorry my info is a little vague at this time. I’ve
got a program that reads and writes to an ini file via baReadIni.
Works fine on Windows XP and Macs in two locations ... but the
client gave the program to a third individual and his system
won’t read the ini file ... I modified the program to give me
some diagnostics and as far as I can tell Buddy API registers
properly, copies the ini file to the user’s prefs folder
without an error, but when it reads the ini file it just returns
the default values. The third party got the project via FTP so
about the only thing I can think of is that maybe the ini file
somehow became unreadable. My diagnostics confirmed the ini file is
in the correct location. Anyone have ideas?

I had an issue a while back with some Macs when using the
baWriteIni
command. The issue would cause the first item you added to
the ini file
to become corrupt. This would then cause baReadIni to always
return the
default value when you were trying to read it back, as the
entry didn't
exist. For example a line like "test=1" would come up
something like
this "st=t" (I can't remember exactly).
I worked around this issue by always adding an unused entry
to a new ini
file before I added anything of value. For example I add
(using
baWriteIni) "buffer=none".
