FOUND A FIX for Aperture/iLife '08 printing (aperture w/ new books, etc)

Albeit a temporary fix... here it is.
You'll need iLife '08 and a PDF viewer from which you can save jpgs or tiffs at or greater than 200dpi, 300dpi preferred.
I created a book in Aperture, exported it as a PDF through the print function, then opened it in Acrobat Professional (not your only choice for PDF software though), re-saved the PDF as JPEGs, and then imported them into iPhoto '08. Once in, I created a completely blank book and used the JPEGs as background images. Now you have an exact duplicate of the page layout from Aperture, that you were able to custom design and manipulate, in a fancy new iLife '08 book.
Lord knows I'll probably get burned in a few weeks when 1.5.5 comes out and fixes the issue, since I had to go out and buy iLife, but for now I can produce quality books for my clients and still use Aperture.
cheers,
Sean

Many people will turn off "Maintain Previews for this project" to improve performance. You can still have previews and share them with iLife, by generating them on command, using "Update Previews for this project". Make sure you have preview sharing turned on in preferences.

Up photos mart c7100 series wireless printer does not show up as a printer. Anyone found a fix for for use with ipad3?

It sounds like the features are working through the USB connection rather than the wireless connection since it is still not seeing the networks.
Everything points to a hardware failure since the steps provided through the private message did not work and the wireless test showed it had failed. Sorry.
You do have some options at this point.
If it is under warranty, either standard or extended, you can contact HP support at 1-800-474-6836 to have it serviced under warranty.
If it is out of warranty, you can still contact HP support to find out all the options and the cost of each option. However, it is my opinion that this money would be better spend being applied towards a new printer.

In Adobe Pro XI when converting an excel file to a pdf, the pdf is not retaining the page size settings. Has anyone found a fix for this?

In Adobe Pro XI when converting an excel file to a pdf, the pdf is not retaining the page size settings. Has anyone found a fix for this?

It shouldn't print each page as a separate job and
each tab has a different name, so, even if it did, it
ought to give the printouts the name of the tabs.
It doesn't print each page as a separate job unless the orientation is different - that's the bug. And the name of the job is taken from the name of the window, not the name of the tabs. That's how every application works, which, I think, is why Excel allows the specific selection or the active sheets to be printed.
Still, that does sound like a plausible explanation.
However, even if presented with multiple prints with
the same name, the spooler should print each one!
The spooler does print each one - you can watch the spooler process the multiple jobs. I think, though, that they are being overwritten since all the jobs have the name of the window as the job title. And since this happens after the Save Dialog is presented, there's really nothing the application can do. To Excel, it's one job, the multiple orientations don't matter; it's just that Apple doesn't handle it correctly.
As a workaround, you can print the selections one at a time and give them unique names and then rejoin them in one PDF file.

FOUND A FIX FOR ADOBE FLASH PLAYER 11.9.900.152

I have Windows 7, 64bit and Internet Explorer 11 installed. I found the fix for Adobe Flash Player after 2 days of doing everything. I thought that the fix should be something very easy and it was. I spent 2 full days doing all kinds of ridiculous things, i.e. uninstalling, reinstalling, restore computer, deactiving XActive, reactivating, changing stuff under internet options, etc. The problem was Internet Explorer 11 update caused Adobe Flash Player not to work or recognize the flash player, or installing a new router caused it not to work. Websites kept displaying messages to download Adobe Flash Player when I already did. There appeared to be a conflict where some videos played and other did not. Youtube did not work anymore. All the problems that other people posted under these forums happened to me. I could not play the games I was playing before, etc. Anyway, I am NOT a tech person and understand little and almost gave up when by accident I found the fix and EVERYTHING works without rebooting anything, uninstalling or reinstalling etc. as all the people in the forums posted. Everything was so complicated!!
THE FIX: Go to Goodgle Chrome browser. If you don't have it, download it. The Adobe Flash Player is included in this browser. Anyway, at the very top RIGHT HAND SIDE there are lines in a square formation. Click on that and go to SETTINGS. Go to very bottom and click on SHOW ADVANCED SETTINGS. SCROLL DOWN TO THE VERY BOTTOM and click on RESET BROWSER SETTINGS. After I did that, EVERYTHING WORKED!!!!!!!!!!! Youtube worked, my game worked in BOTH GOOGLE CHROME AND INTERNET EXPLORER 11. It was like a miracle and a simple fix.
I hope I can save some people ALOT of aggravation and frustration. Adobe should have this fix displayed PROMINENTLY EVERYWHERE if it is indeed this simple. Let me know if this helps. All I know is that I had the same issues as everyone else in the forums and now it is all fixed. I have very limited knowledge, almost none. It just seemed that something was blocking the videos from coming up.

Thanks Mike. I'm not sure what I'm doing but I also re-downloaded the flash player and I got YouTube videos to play again. I have IE11 that I tried to uninstall (it won't let me) so I had to use a restore point, so videos I noticed in yahoo.ca can't play but I read lots of people having issues with this. But, by using a restore point, and re-downloading the flash player (a couple of time until it took), I got Youtube and my game back on IE11. I plan to use Chrome Google though after this experience as everything works there

Found a fix for lightbox working locally but not on site!

This was reply origionally but I felt I should post it. It seems to be a common problem and I was unable to find a resolution so here it is....
I found a fix for something similar that occurred on my machine. I too was seeing no problems locally but when I posted it to my site, it just had the placeholder and no images....
Apparently, dreamweaver is smarter than the browser... (maybe incorrect statement) however..... the file extensions are case sensitive!
I had this-------- <A href="Img/CGM_1.JPG" border="0" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]" title="CGM Pic Set"><img src="Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG" /></a>
<a href="Img/CGM_2.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]"></a>
                  <a href="Img/CGM_3.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]"></a>
                  <a href="Img/CGM_4.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]"></a>
Well, I didnt think anything was so bad, all of the colors were right I wasn't getting any warnings.... wtf?
As it turns out, and this is only because I just started a new image set after testing an individual - - baby steps - - if you use the properties bar at the bottom of DW, it applies a different case for specific parts...... i.e. this is what it produced
<A HREF="Img/CGM_1.jpg" border="0" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]" title="CGM Pic Set"><img src="Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg" /></a>
                  <a HREF="Img/CGM_2.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]"></a>
                  <a HREF="Img/CGM_3.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]"></a>
                  <a HREF="Img/CGM_4.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]"></a>
Notice the HREF's are now UPPER case and the jpg's are now lower case. !!!! really?!?!?
Also, another thing to look out for is the folder/ in front of your thumbnail; make sure it is there. In my case I use my sam "Img" folder, not the "images" folder that lightbox creates.
Hope this helps, I beat my head against the wall for a total of 10 hours over 2 days trying to figure this out. I couldn't find anything on the internet. I'm going to post this so others having this issue get it resolved. I found those, just no resolution.

Thanks for your quick response
I tried what you said and I still had no avail...
There is a style.css file in the root directory but for some reason you cant access it...
I checked the file permissions of style.css and they are: 644
Its really wierd - I dont understand why it isnt reading...
Also regarding {www.care.cc} all of my clients websites are under the same web hosting service, so he set the default "404 page not found" redirects to {www.care.cc} which is their "Main Site" as such - I understand that this is bad practice but unfortunatley I have no control over these matters as I have limited access too my clients web hosting.
Thanks again for the Help

Is there a fix for a dead ethernet port besides a new logic board?

My ethernet port went dead on my IMac. I unplugged the ethernet cable and plugged it into my laptop and it worked instantly. I am still able to connect wirelessly. I bought an apple USB to Ethernet converter and plugged it in. It worked for about 3 days and then it went dead. Once again I was able to unplug the ethernet cable, plug it into my laptop and instantly had a connection. Is there a fix for a dead ethernet port besides a new logic board and if not how do I figure out which logic board I need?
Thanks
Step

This problem baffled me. I kept getting the "ethernet cable unplugged" error after testing my cables good. Was abut to write it off as port gone bad when I found this thread.
The YouTube video reference above fixed my problem. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1P6X87qArs)
Basically go to SETTINGS/NETWORK. Then highlight your ETHERNET port and click the ADVANCED button. From there click the HARDWARE tab.
Set
CONFIGURE to MANUALLY
SPEED to whatever your ethernet speed is, in my case 1000baseT
DUPLEX - FULL DUPLEX, FLOW CONTROL
Leave MTU at Standard
Hit OK.
Then don't forget to hit APPLY. I didn't do this the first couple of times assuming hitting OK applied these settings. You gotta hit APPLY.
In about two seconds, my Ethernet connected again.
I went back and reset it to AUTOMATIC just to test and after doing so got the cable unplugged error again. So I am leaving it on manual and it's working.

Anybody found a fix for the netstream.seek bug?

The bug I am talking about is only being able to seek to a point in a video that the play head has been before.
Here is how the bug is described at :http://www.brooksandrus.com/blog/2005/12/17/5-reasons-netstream-sucks/
"Seeking is super slow until all keyframes are cached. No bull, if you have a file which you’ve completely preloaded, the keyframes aren’t cached until the video playhead reaches that point in time for the first time. If I load a file and seek to the end, the player has to chug through all of the keyframes prior to my seek point. This is slow, slow if I have video of even several minutes."
That was posted 5 years ago. I have found the bug referenced in the following posts:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/1917914#1917914
http://forums.adobe.com/message/692394?tstart=0
I would assume that since this bug has been around for at least 5 years, there would a bug report filed for it or a work around found. But I can't seem to find either.
I have tried multiple codecs and encodings with no luck. I'm having a hard time accepting that there is not fix for this problem. Flash has to read and cache the key frame information of the entire video before being able to seek to the end. Does anybody know where the flash player writes this information? Let me be clear, this is not streaming video, this is video that is running local off the hard drive. The flash player stores this key frame information somewhere until the computer is restarted. At that point when the video is played again, it has to read the entire file again. You can close and open the player multiple times and it will only perform the caching the first time and not again until a computer restart.
again, I am not trying to seek to a point that has not been loaded yet. This is a swf that loads a video off the hard drive.
One that that I have noticed is that when H.264 files are loaded, the player immediately performs the caching scan before it begins to play. When it is finished, you can seek to any point quickly. The time it takes for the caching scan is dependent upon the size of the file and the number of keyframes it has. Whereas the rest of the video codecs will play immediately but will only seek quickly to cached keyframes.
I have only seen this problem discussed in a few spots, with no solutions. it is a very old bug. Has anybody found a fix, work around or bug report on it?
Thanks for your help

The above is a simple test I put together. Use a large FLV for the testing. Remember, the first seek to the end will be the longest and you may not get the same results unless you restart or use another FLV.

Think I found the fix for no downloading windows updates for HP Printers problem.

I thought I'd post a new topic here. I've figured out whats gone wrong with the windows 10 updates. Someone wrote about it in his thread (I forget the thread url though), and it worked. I've done this on 2 PC's.. W7 to W10, and W8.1 to W10. What you have to do is; 1. Go to device manager. Look down the list for Printers. Open up that arrow and see if you're printer is listed there? If it's listed as Unknown Device then; 2. Go to the HP website and find the driver for your printer on there. Download it through the website / program as though you was installing your printer for the first time i.e. it should check the connection of you're printer during this process. 3. Now you have your printer driver re-installed. Go back to Device manager and check that it now appears listed by the correct name in the Printer section. 3a. If there are other unknown devices besides your printer listed, you need to delete the other unknown devices, leaving only your printer listed. 4. Go back to windows update and retry a windows update (it asks you to install the old failed ones first, so try it, expecting failure, then press the retry button. 5. If all went well, it shouldn't list anymore updates, and you're done!

I think I found a fix for Yellow/Amber Flashing Lights!

A friend of mine had an Ipod shuffle and it was flashing yellow and amber. I went home and restored it, which didn't seem to do anything. I gave it to him, and he plugged it into his computer. He was greeted by the thing that asks you if you want to delete your music or somthing because it had foreign music. He pressed, no which brought him to his library. He unplugged his Ipod, and sure enough, It Worked!
I do not no if this will work with everyones ipod.
I just want to help other people with this problem.
Thanks ---Mason

Found a fix for printing from Mac and PC using Airport Express!

I hope this helps somebody else because it's taken me hours and hours of frustration to trip over this solution. I have a MacBook, Airport Express and a Windows XP PC. Internet worked fine but I could not print form the PC via airport. I tied all the various links from iFelix (thanks to him for what sure seems like a lot of work to help others) but they didn't work. Here's what did...
To setup a printer using the Bonjour Printer Wizard:
1. Download the Bonjour for Windows installation package from the
Apple site http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/bonjour/.
2. Install Bonjour for Windows by launching the BonjourSetup.exe file from the folder where place it was downloaded.
3. Start the Bonjour Printer Wizard either by clicking its icon on the desktop or by selecting Start -> Programs -> Bonjour -> Bonjour Printer Wizard.
4. Follow the installation steps until the Install Bonjour Printer screen appears.
5. In the Install Bonjour Printer screen, select Generic in the Manufacturer list and then Generic / Postscript in the Model list. This step is the same for any printer model you have.
6. Follow the rest of installation steps.
The key is the Generic and Generic/Postscript settings. I also set up the Parallels program on my Mac. These instructions come from their documentation. It's the only thing I've found that works. Hope it helps some of you!

Fix for Lion breaking Dell printer driver?

I just purchased a Dell 1130n Laser Printer, which is advertised to have Mac OS X support.
Having installed the driver that came with the printer (2010 is the most recent driver version) I have the following problems;
- Printer runs but no paper is fed through.
- Blank pages are printed
- Nothing is printed
- Numerous pages of thick black lines are printed
One of these occurs every time I try to print under OS X Lion.
The printer works perfectly on the same mac booted in a Windows 7 partition.
Any suggestions to fix?

I've had a similar problem and found something that fixed it for me. I removed the printer because I was having some issues and then it refused to work but after a day I've managed to get it back again so here's what I did.
1 - Download the driver from the Dell website
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/uk/en/ukdhs1/DriversHome/?c=uk&l=en&s=dhs&cs =ukdhs1
2 - Run the installer and uninstall the drivers.
3 - Run the install and re-install the drivers
4 - Restart your Mac (I hate restarting but I blame Dell...usually it works fine for everything for weeks!)
5 - I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers again at this point (no real reason so try without!)
6 - Turn on the printer and then add it in System Tools > Print and Scan
7 - Mine added fine and found the drivers.
Hope that helps. I couldn't find anything very useful online...especially one incredibly helpful person on another forum who posted for help then put 'it's ok I've sorted it' without explanation!

Found a fix for this: Unable to open Itunes Store on windows XP

Hi,
     I have been searching for this all weekend. For the last month we have been unable to connect to Itunes store. We can connect to the Internet and also access to itunes itself. I have phoned Apple as well as our service provider. No luck with the solutions offered. I have uninstalled and downloaded it again. I have done the winsock suggestion. I have disabled the firewall solution. I have gone into security settings and clicked enable the miscellaneous part. I have run as administrator. Basically everything from this forum and numerous others and also from advice from apple and my service provider. NOTHING WORKED for me on this computer. However on my Laptop which is vista the winsock fix did work. Still didn't solve my desktop until I found another solution and tried. Blow me down it worked. 2 days and hooray.....finally. I found this on a Geek website called "geeks to go" and I have cut and pasted it from there.
This is it.
Copy and paste the text in the code box below into Notepad.
@Echo on
pushd\windows\system32\drivers\etc
attrib -h -s -r hosts echo 127.0.0.1 localhost>HOSTS
attrib +r +h +s hosts popd ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset all
netsh int ip reset all
shutdown -r -t 1
del %0
Save as flush.bat to your desktop.
Double-click flush.bat file to run it. Your computer will reboot.
Note: For Windows Vista or Windows 7, right-click flush.bat and select "Run as Administrator".
Hope this one helps anyone out there that has tried most of the other fixes. No bugs or viruses from this...so far.

You're probably going to need to install service pack 2 or 3.

Been having trouble for months not being able to connect to the store and then after the most recent update couldn't even connect to the internet to import a physical CD (wouldn't connect to Gracenotes), import purchases I made on my phone or even to check for iTunes updaes. After reading some other posts about the winsocket concerns I ran a diagnostic and found a real player file called speedster used to enhance download speed using the winsocket. I just uninstalled realplayer (I did have real player plus btw) and BAM all issues with iTunes were fixed. Opened iTunes, store loaded and all my purchases from my iphone and ipod touch started downloading. Simple, but ridiculous it caused that much trouble and not been an update to fix it yet seeing months of problems out there.

Ha! Issue solved. The track not showing the arrows was a PDF in iTunes. All is well.
