Hi - new to the forum. I am unable to get the true colour printing I am used to from my Canon Pixma 9500 mk2 since moving to a mac and using Aperture. The colours are simply not representative of the on-screen image. Any ideas?

Whatever I do with installing or de-installing printer drivers, selecting or deselecting colour synch or colour management options, the colour is simply awful compared to what I have been used to fir years, using the same printer with a pc and a 10 yeart old version of paintshop Pro. What is going on!??

First guess is that you are subjecting the data to two passes of printing conversions.  If you use Aperture's color management for printing, you _must_ disable the color controls in your printer dialog.
How this is done varies for each printer.  (The Aperture User Manual says, in full:
To turn off color management for your printer
Refer to the owner’s manual that came with your printer.
Additionally, make sure you have the most recent printer driver for your printer and OS.  Printer makers have gotten good at making these files easy to get.  Most now come with installation instructions.
Lastly, the only way to ensure that you get a good screen-to-print match is to use a hardware device to calibrate your monitor.  That doesn't seem to be your problem, though.

  • I have Keynote 6.2 and when my Mac Pro is hooked to a projector I cannot get the presenter notes to show on the computer screen and not on the projected screen. Any ideas?

    I have Keynote 6.2 and when my MacPro is hooked to a projector with a slide presentation I cannot see my presentation notes on the computer screen and not on the projected screen. Any ideas?

    Somethings obviously gone wrong with your installation of Keynote.
    Try this repair for Keynote 6.2,  ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
    1  delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
    2  empty the trash:  Finder > Empty Trash
    3  Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then hold down the Shift key while pressing the power button
    When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
    4   Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
    5  when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click  repair disc permissions
    6  when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
    7  install Keynote from the Mac App Store
    let us know if this helped

  • I am trying to create a signature with echosign. I cant seem to get to the right screen. Any ideas?

    I want to create my signature with Echosign, but I cant seem to get to the right screen. How can I either draw my signature or type it in? thanks.

    George, I respectfully disagree that it related to the document. All documents I receive have the same problem. Again, all I want is to have the options back under the “Place Signature” button to be able to type my signature or draw it. The only thing the button is currently letting me do is  in the screen print below.

  • HT1551 Hi. The TV shows icon does not appear on my home screen. Any ideas how I can locate it?

    Icons are missing from my home screen.
    The TV show icon was missing today. I updated with the latest software - now the TV and movie icons are both missing.
    Can someone point this newbie in the right direction?
    Many thanks!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There are reports of TV Shows and/or Movies missing from users screens, initially it looked like this might be an issue in the UK only, but it may well be more widespread. It appears to be an issue that can't be fixed by the user, you will need to wait until this is resolved by Apple.

  • My iPhone has started freezing after I wake it an slide the switch to go to the password screen.  Any ideas on cause or solution ?

    In the pas 24 hours I have begun experiencing frequent screen freezes when I attempt to in lock my phone.

    You didn't mention anything that you may have done to trouble shoot the problem, so I will start with the basics.
    Shut down all multitasking apps that may be running in the background.  They may be causing memory overload and not allowing the phone to function properly.
    1. Double press the home button to open the multitasking tray
    2. Tap and hold any app icon until they all start to wiggle and display the X button on each icon
    3. Tap the x button to close the app
    4. Repeat for all apps
    5.  Press home button to close multitasking tray
    Check to see if phone is functioning properly.
    If not go on to the next step
    Restart your phone (Kind of like restarting your computer when it starts to act all wonky.
    1. Press and hold BOTH the power button and the home button at the same time
    2. Continue to hold both buttons down for at least 15 seconds or until the Slide To Power Off screen appears and disappears
    3. Wait for the silver apple logo to appear
    4. Release both buttons and wait for phone to return to lock screen
    5. Try unlocking the phone
    If this doesn't work you may have a more serious problem.
    At this point I would try to reset your network settings just to clear out everything that may be causing the phone to act up.
    1. Settings
    2. General
    3. Scroll to bottom of screen
    4. Reset
    5. Reset Network Settings
    Wait for phone to restart and see if it's working again. You will have to reenter your wifi passwords when you connect to a wifi network.
    If not the last thing I would try is to do a Reset All Settings option.  This will set your phone back to its default state but don't worry, it won't erase any of your content.  At least it is not supposed to.  I have done this a number of times because of the battery life issue I picked up when I updated to iOS 5.0.1 and I haven't lost a thing.
    You just have to reenter your passwords again and maybe turn off the things you turned off before, i.e. Siri Raise To Speak, Locations, etc.
    1. Settings
    2. General
    3. Scroll to bottom of screen
    4. Reset
    5. Reset All Settings
    Wait for phone to restart.  Go through the setup routine.  I normally do a set up as new phone when I do this to get back to factory defaults and then just set up the things I want on or off.
    If none of this helps you may have an app that is causing the problem (Think back to the app you may have added just before this problem started and delete it to see what happens).
    If that isn't the cause and if you phone is still acting up on you, you may have a hardware problem.  Time to head to the Genius Bar at your nearest Apple Store, assuming you are close enough to one.  Or go to the storew where you bought the phone, if you bought it at a physical store rather than online and have them look it over and see if you need a hardware replacement.
    Good Luck.

  • My iPad isn't working properly. When I try to connect to the internet or follow a link it shuts down and returns to the main screen. Any clue as to what could be causing this? Not my internet connection, I checked that.

    My iPad isn't working. I cannot follow a link in an email or connect to a game. It goes to a black screen then back to the main screen. Any idea what could be causing this?

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Perform a "hard reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
    Then test to see if it solved the problem.

  • I just bought a new Mac and I want to transfer some data (not all) from my old Mac.  Basically, I want to move my itunes library, iphoto library, and a few documents.  I have not even turned on my new Mac yet.  Is the best way by an external hard drive?

    If both have Firewire ports then you can accomplish your goal by using Target Disk Mode. If this is not possible then you can do using an external drive or if you have a local network connect both to your network and use filesharing between the two computers.
