I need help with a print spooler error message

Out of the blue I lost my printer connection. When I look at my printer menu there is no printer listed. When I try to add or install a printer, I get some odd message about a printer spooler is not running. Restart the machine. I've tried unhooking the printer, rebooting, unhooking from the power source. I even went into some area as an administrator and found the print spool task and when I clicked on the start button there was no action.

This is a MS Windows issue. Try this:
Right click on My Computer
Select Manage
Double click on Services and Application
Double click on Services
Scroll down to Print Spooler and double click on it
Click on Dependencies tab
Check what dependencies the print spooler has, if any you may need to click on + on those dependencies to more dependencies
Go back to the Services list
On each of the spooler dependencies, double click on it
Make sure it is set to Automatic in the Startup Type drop down menu
Now click on Start to start the service
Click OK
Now try and print.

Need Help with my School Assignment - Error Message

Hey guys,
I'm doing a school assignment for my Object Oriented Java programing class. Here's the assignment requirements:
"There are five kinds of flowers, and their associated costs. Create an array of strings that holds the names of these flowers. Create another array that holds the cost of each corresponding flower. Your program should read the name of a flower and the quantity desired by a customer. Locate the flower in the name array and use that index to find the cost per stem in the cost array. Compute and print the total cost of the sale. Write your solution in one class: FlowerCounterArray.
The solution should implement the following two methods:
- addOrder(String flowerName, int quantity) to add to the order. This is in addition to reading from the terminal.
- printTotal() to print out the total cost to the terminal."
I wrote up some code so far and I want to test it, but I am getting this error: "']' expected" on the newFlower[0] = new FlowerCounterArrays("petunia", 0.50]; line near the end of the code.
Here's my code:
public class FlowerCounterArrays {
    private String flowerName;
    private double price;
    public void addOrder(String flowerName, int quantity) {
        for (FlowerCounterArrays flower : newFlower) {
            if (flower.equals(flowerName)) {
                total = price * quantity;
                System.out.println("The price for " + quantity + " " + flower + "(s) is " + total);
            else {
                System.out.println("Unfortunately we do not carry that type of flower here.");
    public void printTotal() {
        System.out.println(total);
    FlowerCounterArrays[] newFlower = new FlowerCounterArrays[5];
    newFlower[0] = new FlowerCounterArrays("petunia", 0.50];
    newFlower[1] = new FlowerCounterArrays("pansy", 0.75);
    newFlower[2] = new FlowerCounterArrays("rose", 1.50);
    newFlower[3] = new FlowerCounterArrays("violet", 0.50);
    newFlower[4] = new FlowerCounterArrays("carnation", 0.80);
}Thanks for the help guys! Much appreciated!

Ok. I'm kind of new to all this, so some stuff I'm not 100% clear on.
I get what you're saying though. I put the array into the method.
Although now I get a new errod: "cannot find symbol - constructor FlowerCounterArrays(java.lang.String,double)"
I get this error on my newFlower[0] = new FlowerCounterArrays("petunia", 0.50); line
Here's my new code:
public class FlowerCounterArrays {
    private String flowerName;
    private double price;
    public void addOrder(String flowerName, int quantity) {
        FlowerCounterArrays[] newFlower = new FlowerCounterArrays[5];
        newFlower[0] = new FlowerCounterArrays("petunia", 0.50);
        newFlower[1] = new FlowerCounterArrays("pansy", 0.75);
        newFlower[2] = new FlowerCounterArrays("rose", 1.50);
        newFlower[3] = new FlowerCounterArrays("violet", 0.50);
        newFlower[4] = new FlowerCounterArrays("carnation", 0.80);
        for (FlowerCounterArrays flower : newFlower) {
            if (flower.equals(flowerName)) {
                total = price * quantity;

            else {
                System.out.println("Unfortunately we do not carry that type of flower here.");
    public void printTotal() {
        System.out.println(total);
}Thanks for the help so far!

Did recent recommended update cause incompatibility with HP printer, causing error message and printer to print blank pages?

did recent recommended update cause incompatibility with HP printer, causing error message and printer to print blank pages?

Why not contact HP tech support for assistance since they make the printer. While on their site you can look for an updated printer driver. Otherwise, try deleting the current installed driver, reset the print system, then reinstall your printer's driver.

Need help with duplicate print jobs over network that I can't cancel

I have the Photosmart Premium All-in-One on my home network. My kids who each have laptop running Windows 7 and are connected via wireless to the printer via a DLINK DIR-655.
They hit the print button too many times and it keeps printing over and over again.
Is there a way to get the printer to stop printing these duplicates. I tried turning off/on but they just keep printing.
We're wasting paper/ink and I need help with a solution.
Please let me know. Thanks.
Angelo

There should be a button with a red 'X' on it on the front of the printer. This is the print cancel button.

Thank you for the replies.
Jeff, I will check that link and try what is suggests.
Bill, to answer your questions...
1. This is a CC installation.
2. Yes, I am logged in as the admin and I have no anti-virus other than Microsoft Essentials enabled.
3. This is a download installation.
To give even more info that might help, I am using a Windows 7 machine with more than enough capability to run CC. I had installed Photoshop, Illustrator, among other apps successfully. I then tried the Acrobat XI installation. Acrobat XI downloaded and extracted, but when it started installing it froze around 50% and then I received the installation failed error from Windows. Once that was confirmed the CC install progress finishes but shows failure. The More Info reveals the error I pasted in above. Afterward, none of the CC apps worked properly and had to be uninstalled. So, next I installed the CC downloader and tried to start installing Acrobat XI first but the same error occurred. That's when I got frustrated and posted my original message. My limited knowledge leads me to think the error issue lies in the AcroPro.msi file but I have no idea what that is or how to find, correct, or install it.
Thanks again for any help you can provide. I'm really frustrated that I'm paying for something that I can't use.

Need help with Java always get error

hey guys need help
this the problem i get :
I go to certain websites and I get this error with firefox.
This Site requires that JavaScript be enabled.
It is enabled.
This is the one of the errors in java script console with firefox.

Hi 49ers,
Sorry not to have any real idea of how to help you out here, but this is a Java forum, not JavaScript.
Some Firefox expert may stumble across your post and be able to offer some advice (I hope they do) but this isn't really the best place to post such questions.

Need help with Automating Printer and LPR installation

I work for someone who has a need for automating the print installation of LPR print port to mac laptops. Obviously this will need to cover anything OS X 10.3 and above. All of this needs to be done command line via a batch file of sorts.
I am a windows and Linux guy, however I just bought a Mac and starting to like the new Leopard OS and the capabilities of boot camp.
What I need:
1) how to install LPR port to the laptop
2) installing a printer from a some sort of cab file with correct port and drivers. (in windows we use print migrator, however the cab files we use for windows will obviously not work with different port types and drivers)
3) finally some clean up type script that will clean up any temp files I had to create or such.
I kind of need this soon so if anyone knows how or could point me in the right direction. It would be greatly appreciated.

If you force restart the computer on the freeze up, or force quit the printer adding window, does the printer appear in the print and scan system preference? In other words, did the printer successfully install? (is it possible that the setup part of the install failed, but the actual install worked?)
If so, you might be able to set the configurations yourself.
Open up the print and scan system preference. Double click on the printer.
When the printer queue window opens up, you should be able to click on the printer setup button.
Go through all the tabs and set things up the way you like.

Need help with hp printer/airport

until yesterday, my ibook printed to my hp 5250 on the airport network. i came back from a trip, and although the internet connection works fine, i can no longer print. i can see the printer (listed as a bonjour printer), but all jobs are stopped. tried the usual - shut everything down and restarted;disconnected and reconnected printer and airport; deleted printer from "print and fax" in system preferences and then added it back in. nothing. i have things in such a twist that i can't print from the printer even when connected directly (the printer DOES work when connected directly to another mac). i can also see another hp printer connected to the network, but cannot add it as a printer - it just spins forever. please help - could i have updated something from apple that is in conflict with my printer working? it is the only thing i can think of. thanks in advance!

I have the same problem.

Need Help With HP Printer

Currently I have a HP 2610 AIO printer. It works great, for the most part. I have noticed though that the footers in the MS Word 2004 default margins, as well as margins in Pages and Adobe Reader 7 all get cut off at the bottom. Even though if I transfer the document over to my PC with Word 2003 and Adobe Reader 7 the document prints fine.
I tried contacting HP today, but I probably won't see a response till Monday so I am asking people here. Is there a way to fix this issue with HP printers? Is there a third party driver, or default Apple drive that could be used to overwrite the default and hopefully this fix this bug?
BTW so far I have tried the following:
-uninstalling Office and reinstalling
-uninstalling HP software + drivers & reinstalling
Is there a preference file or some other file that would reset to a default if I remove it?
I am looking for any and all answers I can find at this point because so far from searching the Pages forum here, as well as the Google Newsgroup for MS Word 2004, there doesn't seem to be any way to solve this problem.

I figured out that I needed to select Borderless printing. Otherwise Mac OS X doesn't properly recognize the proper bottom margin of my printer.

Need help with HP printer installation.

Trying to install drivers for an HP OfficeJet 6500 e710n on two machines, an iMac and a MacBook Air, both running OS X 10.7. The printer is a networked printer that I have tried adding to both machines as an IP printer and as a USB printer. With either method the printer is automatically discovered and the drivers are downloaded. After the drivers are installed the process stalls at "Configuring the device..." I have waited at this point for over half an hour with no progress before choosing cancel. I have also downloaded and run the installer from HP with the same results. The only way that I have been able to connect with this printer is by manually configuring an IP printer with the generic PCL drivers. This allows me to print but only in low-res black and white. Any suggestions?

Newbie needs help sorting out a publishing error message!

I'm just learning this stuff, and I got the following message when I tried to publish my website.
Can’t create the file “shapeimage1_link0.png.” The disk may be damaged, full, or you may not have sufficient access privileges.
I previously published with no problems, after re-editing my sight, I ran into this problem. I'm rather incompetent at this stuff. Help much appreciated!

Two points that may help some one help me...
Does this part of the error message
'shapeimage1_link0.png.' mean that some specific
image on my site is causing the problem. If I could
find and delete that would it help? How would I find
which image has that tag?
Hello Pete,
i have been having the same difficulties. I was able to publish last week, but not this week. I followed many of the same procedures that people have been recommending (thanks for all the helpful suggestions), but I still get the same error message. I have a feeling that it is related to an issue with the new OS update and/or with the new iWeb update. I even deleted the new blog entry and went back to iWeb 1.1.1 and I could not get it to publish (thus, I had the same exact conditions that I had last week when I could get it to publish except for now I have OS 10.4.8 instead of 10.4.7).
I am at a loss on what to try. i get the same exact error message as you do, no matter whether I publish to a folder or to .mac. I can see that almost everything gets published except it gets hung up at creating that 'shapeimage1_link0.png' file. I wish I could find a way to figure out how to have iWeb not create that file.
I also tried to create a whole new site with the old content and still got the same error message.
I hope that we can get this problem solved soon (I really think Apple needs to provide a fix). I am starting to look at other programs, just so I can update my existing page. Macromedia Contribute allows me to fix parts of my existing (on the server) website. They have a free 30 day demo. I may have to purchase the program if Apple doesn't fix the problem soon.
Good luck and I will let you know whether I find a fix.

Help with Coding and Warning/Error Messages

Can someone help me with Java Language to get SAP to enter through soft warnings and errors?
I am working to record/write a script to change orders but am hitting a road block when error messages pop up. I need to get it to enter through if the message pops up or move to the next step if not... there can be 1 error or multiples depending on the number line items.
THANKS!

I'm guessing that your computer is too slow to record
real-time audio.
Of itself it should be fine - I still use a G3 desktop to record stereo with no problems at all - though GB may add an overhead. Still, this shouldn't be happening.
If you have other tracks playing
while you are recording this could be an issue,
especially if there are a lot playing.
Yes...
If this is the
case then you can lock the tracks playing by pressing
the lock icon.
This won't make any difference to audio tracks, only to MIDI tracks, and in that case it reduces demands on the processor but increases demands on the disk - which appears to be the trouble in the first place.
I agree that you should consider
getting an external hard drive. You can set the
record path to the external hard drive
Since laptop disks are usually slower than external ones this might help - particularly if your internal drive is very full.
which will
free up working memory to your computer.
No it won't, but it will take the strain off the internal disk, if that's what you mean. The memory might be an issue, which would be resolved by installing more RAM if possible.

Help with Oracle AS Portal Error Messages

Hi
Our Application basically consists of a number of Reports which display data from a database, and Forms which will allow the insert of data in the table that the form is based on...
The application is used by business users.
I need assistance with the error messages that appear on Oracle Portal if something goes wrong - wrong data entered on a form for the database table, some error with a trigger that is called on the table where data is being inserted/ updated etc...
Currently, when an error occurs on the form (when you are trying to insert data into the database), the following errors can appear (this is an example of the actual format.)
Error: Internal error (WWC-00006)
An unexpected error occurred: ORA-20001: aft person ins
ORA-06512: at "RFS.RFS_AFT_INS", line 41
ORA-12899: value too large for column "RFS"."RFS_PERSON"."USER_ID" (actual: 22, maximum: 20)
ORA-04088: error during execution of trigger 'RFS.RFS_AFT_INS' (WWV-16016)
While this error will tell a developer what to do, it will not really tell an end user what the problem is...
I have started to edit the functions/ procedures that are used/ triggered from the forms to display a message in more or less the following format.
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001,'PLEASE NOTE: There is no XXX data for the XXX used. Please contact your administrator to assist.',TRUE);
What I want to know is, by changing the functions on the database etc, will I be catering for the errors, and will the message that I create be displayed to the user, or will they still see the original error message above?
Are there ways to display a more user-friendly error, even if just to say "Contact your administrator..." or something?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

By editing the default error messages, there is a risk the next patch or patch set to overwrite your customizations. A better approach would be to create custom error page(s) for Portal forms/reports.
Please refer to Metalink Note: 157132.1 How to Create a Custom Error Page for Portal Form.
Thanks.

how would I go about upgrading from tiger to leopard?
Buy Leopard, insert disk, follow instructions.
You can instal php (which is built into Leopard) by renaming a file and uncommenting a line then enabling web sharing in System Preferences but I use entropy because it has the GD enabled for CAPTCHA and other features. There's a 10.4 version on their website but it mentions it's an older, unsupported and probably insecure version. You should use entropy Leopard version 5.2.9-7 for Leopard/ADDT development.
After you get php installed you need to install MySQL which is easy to find through searching and straight-forward to instal. Then instal phpMyAdmin and you'll be good to go!
As mentioned earlier I can walk you through the steps more thoroughly if you decide to upgrade to Leopard. There's some other steps involved: You need to configure virtual hosts so that it points to your Sites folder on your Mac and each folder in Sites folder are for each site you have so that entering site1 goes to ~/Sites/site1 on local testing server and entering site2 goes to ~/Sites/site2 in local testing server, etc. very, very easy to setup. Just edit hidden hosts file in etc folder and username.config file in apache2 hidden folder.
There's other tutorials out there that show how to do it but most don't have all the info. I'm working on a step-by-step tutorial on my website but it's not finished yet. Maybe it'll be ready by the time you decide to upgrade to Leopard.
