I cant' print using firefox. print preview won't display, won't print, printing dialog box won't display, etc

Seems like since I updated to firefox 5 I can't print web pages, print preview won't work. I click on the print option under file and nothing displays or prints.

Try the Firefox SafeMode and see if you can initiate printing from within Firefox. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
# You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

Just once or twice
== just recently, no problems before the last few days!

File > Page Setup = '''Scale'''
100% is usually best.

Print Dialog Box won't Open

My husband has an Intel Mac Mini that has issues. He can't open the print dialog box from any application--Mail, Firefox, Quickbooks, Word, etc. He can't print anything at all because the dialog box won't open when selecting <file> and <print> or clicking the print icon if there is one in that application. I deleted the printers and reinstalled the drivers...nothing. I upgraded from OS 10.7 to 10.8...again nothing. I zapped the pram...still nothing. I've been using Macs for 15 years and this issue has got me stumped. Any suggestions?

I was unable to find the SavedData file. I am running Windows 7 and there seems to be two files there /Roaming/Adobe/InDesign and /Roaming/Adobe/AdobeInDesing5.5 and neither one has a clear file name "InDesign SavedData" for me to remove. I think I found the "InDesign Debaults" under the /Roaming/Adobe/InDesign/version7.5/en_US/InDesignDefaults. Is that one it?

CS6 Photoshop: One newly-created PSD filewon't print because the print dialog box won't appear altho the file properties appear to be the same as other files that do print.

CS6 Photoshop: One newly-created PSD file won't print because the print dialog box won't appear after selecting File > Print. Then "Print" becomes grayed out. The file properties such as permissions, are the same as other PSD files that do print. This file also cannot be converted to Adobe PDF, which is not offered as choice under "Save as", whereas other can be. I've exited, reopened Photoshop, restarted computer, checked out other CS6 PSD files which do print, nothing changes. The 52 MB file has been flattened. OS is Windows 7. Thanks for any suggestions.

Sounds like the printer driver is having some problems.
Try holding the space bar down when you select Print (which makes the print dialog NOT load previously used settings).

Illustrator cc2014 open dialog box won't work yosemite

I have a Macbook Pro Retina 2014 with a fresh install of Yosemite and Creative Cloud, after a while, when I used the open dialog box for 4 or 5 times to open documents, that dialog box won't work anymore, I have to quit and reopen the Illustrator application, the shortcut won't work either. Is anybody got that problem before?
When I was on Mountain Lion, I never got this problem, I presume it's related to Yosemite.

Gelouis,
I believe it is a bug in CC2014, appearing when you have the Illustrator open/place dialogue set to column view and sort by date or sort by kind. You may change it to view by name or list view.

Or you may get it right by changing the sort to something else.

I updated Firefox and now, when I select File, Send Link, a dialog box pops up asking me to establish a new account before I can send the link via email.

I updated Firefox and now, when I select File, Send Link, a dialog box pops up asking me to establish a new account before I can send the link via email. I use Outlook, so how do I avoid setting up some new account and yet am able to send the link via Outlook?
I have a feeling it may have something to do with HotMail.com.

My Error: I found out that it was Mozilla Thunderbird that was causing the problem. I uninstalled it and the problem went away.

Select Imamge source dialog box won't show up, how to repair it?

My CS4 is doing very strange now, a lot of function is missing, the Select Image Source dialog box won't show up, the blue bar on top of menu bar won't show. Seems a lot of functions are disabled, is there a way to bring it back to normal?

If the Select Image Source dialog box doesn't appear, it sounds as though you have accidentally changed Dreamweaver Preferences.
Open the Preferences panel from the Edit menu (Windows) or the Dreamweaver menu (Mac).
Select the General category from the list on the left.
Make sure the "Show dialog when inserting objects" check box is selected.
If the blue bar on the top of a Spry menu doesn't display, in the View menu select the Visual Aids submenu, and make sure there is a check mark alongside Invisible Elements (clicking it toggles the option on and off).
If other settings have gone wrong, it's a good idea to delete your personal configuration folder. There are instructions on how to find it in the link supplied by Jon in the previous post.

I had the same problem and just recently fixed it. I went to my startup programs and prevented several from automatically starting on startup using msconfig. Then when I went to restart the computer I was told that there was a program preventing it. I used ctrl, alt, delete to open up the task manager and went to the process which my computer said was preventing the restart and ended the process. In my case it was ofspool.exe - not sure I got the spelling right. When the computer restarted everything was fixed. I also have my Firefox 29.0.1 set to never check for updates. Hope this will help someone.

I am unable to print using firefox message is "unknown printer error" No problem with other browsers

I tried to print a coupon from an e-mail and the message I got was "unknown printer error". I am able to print from word and other items on my desktop and also from another browser. I cannot print anything using Firefox. I have not had any updates recently and the problem seems to have happened spontaneously. Can you help.

Thanks it worked. Actually I tried that before I posted my question. I went back and rechecked and I had missed one item. Turns out it made a difference. I can now print my coupons.

When using Firefox as my browser, why am I unable to print web page content?

I can print just fine when I use internet explorer as my browser, so I know the printer is working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled my printer software, updated Mozilla, and Adobe. When I am using firefox, the printer will only print the web address at the top right corner, and the date , time and page number at the bottom. What do I do next?

I can print, using AirPrint, just fine. But how do I change Printer settings using my Ipad, like page orientation and 2 sided printing?

When printing an email I get the option to select 2 sided printing but not page orientation. When trying to print a picture from my picture library I don't get either option. I am using a HP printer with AirPrint. Thanks, Dave

Whow what a shame, I thought this iPad was going to be terrific. Guess I'll get out my trusty Cannon from now on, lots less hassle.
Thank you for the reply!

Print Dialog Box Won't Open in InDesign CS5.5 on PC

Worked fine yesterday and today I can't get the print dialog box to open by either the print button or ctrl-P. Have tried restarting the program and restarting the computer with no resolution. The rest of the program works fine.

I was unable to find the SavedData file. I am running Windows 7 and there seems to be two files there /Roaming/Adobe/InDesign and /Roaming/Adobe/AdobeInDesing5.5 and neither one has a clear file name "InDesign SavedData" for me to remove. I think I found the "InDesign Debaults" under the /Roaming/Adobe/InDesign/version7.5/en_US/InDesignDefaults. Is that one it?

Cannot use System Pref's/Network -- dialog box won't go stay gone

G5 running Tiger, browsers, Mail and other internet functions (DSL, PPPoE) work fine BUT: if I boot the Network app in System Pref's, it shows a dialog box that says "Your network settings have been changed by another application." If I press OK the box goes away for a second and then returns -- there is no way to proceed, or use this app -- the only thing I can do is for Systems Pref's to quit. In other words, it won't take OK for an answer!
Some notes: 1) Network diagnostics from the Help menu says everything is normal. 2) I did move my Ethernet connection to another computer to run that one -- this Mac was off at the time. I did not change any modem or router settings, and this Mac, as I said, works fine except for the above problem. 3) an app called "Internet Connect" in the apps folder will not boot (don't know what this is); 4) the utilities Netinfo Mgr and Network Utility don't tell my anything useful or at least that I can understand. How do I reset the SystemPref's/Network app or whatever it is so I can use it? Thanks.

Why can't I preview indd files within InDesign's open file dialog box?

Hello all,
It is bad enough that Adobe doesn't add a plugin to preview any Adobe source file within Windows Explorer (well, except for PDF but I think Microsoft did that).
But I find it ridiculous that I cannot preview .indd source files inside InDesign's Open File dialog box. It just states, "No preview available". I am sure this failure is tied into what Windows can preview... still, not a good excuse!
This is also the same problem in both Illustrator and Photoshop.... neither Adobe program can preview their own file format!
WHY? OR How can I correct this?
[UPDATE: SageThumbs | SourceForge.net seems to partially work on many Photoshop files (works reasonably well as long as I limit the file size to 70mb), it doesn't seem to work on Illustrator files (despite the claim), and it doesn't work on InDesign.]
Still, the question remains, why isn't Adobe taking responsibility for this?

I think you all misunderstood.
I am referring to opening files *within* the Adobe software. Example: Inside InDesign, I click File > Open... I see a list of my .indd files and to the right is a window with the words, "Select a file to preview." If I select an .indd file, I think it is reasonable to assume that I will see a preview of the .indd file... but NO, I just see the message, "No preview available."
In my opinion, this is a failing of Adobe!
> Use bridge
Why would I want to open a separate program just to see thumbnails? Sure Bridge has its uses when I want to look at a lot of different images but I am only talking about quickly seeing a thumbnail before I open a single file within either InDesign, Photoshop, or Illustrator.
Q. If Bridge can render thumbnails, why on Earth would Adobe not place the preview code into the open file dialog of each program?

Help Product Improvement Program dialog box won't go away

When I re-opened the beta version of Fireworks CS4 last
night, there was a dialog box asking me whether or not I wanted to
participate in helping Adobe with product enhancement by submitting
information on my usage of Fireworks, but the bloody thing will not
close. There's options to select yes, no and a few other things,
but whenever I select anything it won't go away. Does anyone else
have this problem? And if so, is Adobe aware of it?

Yes, this problem has been reported already in the CS4 Beta
forum.
Reading
that topic, it appears that only Mac users reported the error
so far, and the only way out was to quit and restart Fireworks. I
think it would be a good idea to post your case there too.

MiniStore dialog box won't go away

I want to get rid of the MiniStore dialog box, because it needlessly takes up space in my iTunes window. The Apple article says, "The first time you launch iTunes 6.0.2 the MiniStore displays a dialog box that explains the MiniStore and asks you if you would like to turn it on." I assumed that meant only the first time, but in fact the dialog box is there when I relaunch. So far, the only way I've found to get rid of it is disabling the Music Store under Parental Controls, but then I'll have to change my preferences every time I want to use the Music Store. Have any of you found a way to get rid of that dialog box?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers,
