    Problem printing from my iPad use to work now the paper comes out empty

    Go into iMessage and Facetime and sign out.
    Go to Settings > iTunes and App Store, log out the person who sold it to you and enter your information.
    Or go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings and then start from scratch.

    Used to be able to save images from webpages but now with IOS 5, I can only save to reading list even when viewing a page whose images I could save as an image when using the previous OS.

    Are you using the YouTube widget in iWeb?  If so it doesn't work any more. Not since MobileMe was discontinued.
    You need to get the full embed code from YouTube and use the standard HTML snippet.

  • Why can't i print a pdf file, it's asking for a password and i have no idea what it is it's never asked me before?

    why can't I print a pdf file, it's asking for a password and I have no idea what it is it never asked for one before?

    Good afternoon SaraThanks for responding. Yes, I have been able to open these files before without a password. Funny thing is it is happening on both my husband's laptop as well as mine. I'd appreciate any help you could give me but the file is very personal. So, if you can assist in a way that won't compromise the security I would be grateful for your help.Thanks and have a great day!Kim Morse 

  • Why suddenly will Adobe not print a PDF file but will only save as .prn file I cannot print

    Why suddenly will Adobe not print a PDF file but will only save as .prn file that my computer will not recognize?  This is a new problem never experienced before.  I have tried updating all versions of Adobe Reader but still no results.

    Turn off the "print to file" option.

  • My iPod used to always connect to the WiFi at home but now it doesn't. What can I do?

    My iPod used to always connect to the internet at home but now it does not. What can I do?

    Try the following:
    Restart your WiFi router by removing power to it for 30 seconds.
    On your iPod Touch use Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings.
    If this does not work test your iPod on some other networks, e.g., Starbucks, etc. If it doesn't work there it may have developed a hardware problem.

  • Acrobat Pro XI Mac won't print a .pdf file, but Apple Preview will print correctly

    Hello,
    I have Acrobat Pro XI for Mac.  recently I've run into pdf files that will show the document on screen ok, show up on print preview screen ok, but when I send it to a printer I either get:
    1.  no printout... the document passes through the printer queue ok, but nothing comes out (no blank paper, nothing).  no data seems to even reach the printer/print server.  no error.  the print job basically vanishes into thin air like the job was never sent
    2.  prints out with all the characters of a text substituted with squares (again, no error. just prints squares instead of text)
    But when I print the same document using Apple's Preview program on the same machine, the file prints out fine.
    I experience this problem with two different Macs, with two different OS versions.  Again both machines will print the .pdf file fine using Apple Preview, but not with Acrobat Pro XI.
    I've searched for this problem, but no one seems to have this problem. I've tried just printing one page, etc., and no difference (won't print, or print wrong using Acrobat, but prints fine using Preview)
    the files are typically sent via e-mail from a vendor, or a web downloaded form (invoice, forms filled out.  some are secure, some are not).  and these are from multiple sources.
    Any ideas what might be the problem, and how to fix this?
    system:
    Mac Pro (early 2008) and MacBook Pro (mid-2011)
    MacOS 10.8.4 and 10.6.8 (multiple computers have this same problem)
    Acrobat Pro XI, 11.0.04
    printer: HP LaserJet 5MP (yes.. old.. but it works) via HP JetDirect + print server on  LAN

    I just found this solution on another board, I tried it  (I removed the same file listed below) and it worked for me.... 
    Safari won’t save or print PDFs: how to fix
    :: Tuesday, January 29th, 2013 @ 5:29:46 am
    :: Tags: Computers
    If Safari won’t save or print PDFs (but views them without any problems), you probably have an Adobe PDF plug-in installed. In Safari, go to Help->Installed Plug-ins and do a search for “PDF.” If you have anything with “PDF” in it other than “WebKit built-in PDF,” that is probably the culprit.
    On my computer, the problem was “AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin”. To remove it, I quit Safari, did a Spotlight search (Command-Option space) for that file name, and then dragged it to the trash. When I restarted Safari, I could print and save PDFs again. You can also manually find the plugins by going to the system “Library”  folder (the one at the root of your hard disk, not in your user folder) and looking in the “Internet Plug-Ins” folder.
    I’m on OS X 10.8.2, running Safari 6.0.2 (8536.26.17).

  • I used to be able to get onto a site, but two days ago I no longer can. I have talked with the site Admin and he says the site is viewing me as non-legit.

    I used to frequent an RPing site until two days ago on Sunday, January 26th, 2014. After speaking with the Site admin I was told that the site no longer recognized me as a "legit person". I have gone through all the normal steps, updating, uninstall and re-install Firefox, delete cookies and history, removed proxy for connection (and all the other proxy options) and even restarting the computer. I have tried accessing the site on other browsers, IE and Chrome and it works just fine! I even have other friends who can still use the site on Firefox! I do not know how to fix the problem, and I hate Chrome/IE with a passion, so I am praying there is some way to fix this problem and let me use Firefox again for the site. As for the error I get whenever I try to get to the site it reads. "The requested URL "(Site Address)" cannot be found or is not available. Please check the spelling or try again later."

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.
    <!-- VERY important to include-->
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>

  • Used to be able to connect to bluetooth headset but now can't?

    Hi,
    I have an iPhone 4 and a jabra headset.
    As it says, I was able to connect them up until about 2 weeks ago (not entirely sure as I don't use the headset every day) but now I can't?
    The phone can see the headset but just wont connect.
    I keep 'forgetting device' and then getting the headset into 'find' mode, then I put the password in when the iPhone wants to pair and then it just sits there trying to connect but doesn't.
    Has anything changed on the last update or the push to fix the alarm?
    Or have I switched something off inadvertently?
    Hope someone can help.
    Thanks
    Pete

    Hi Traveller,
    Thanks for your reply, unfortunately I don't have that problem as my phone just wont connect to the headset so I haven't got the option to switch to it when I have an incoming call.
    My main issue is that I had no problem at all a couple of weeks ago, it worked fine with no disconnection's and I was able to use it at my desk whilst doing other stuff, very handy. Now it just wont connect to the headset although it can see it, it just hangs whilst trying to pair to it?
    TBH I really like the phone, it's my 1st iPhone and I'm glad I got it, once you accept that you can't just bluetooth pics etc to a friends phone (non iphone) the rest seems really good. I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with yours.
    Thanks again for your reply tho.
    Kind regards
    Pete

  • I used to be able to print the Guardian Crossword, but since I changed the Page Setup margins for another website it is scrambled. I've tried resetting printer and all printer settings, still not working

    Here is the link http://www.guardian.co.uk/crosswords/cryptic/25504/print - it looks fine on screen, but print and print previes loses the format. I reset the margins back to 12.7, no effect, and did the "Reset print.print_printer" and edited prefs.js as in the Troubleshooting page of Firefox help.

    Thanks for your response, disconcerting though it may be.
    I guess I'll have to look at other platforms.

  • Firefox used to be able to open my library search, but now it can't Internet explorer can

    When opening my public library account and searching for a book, Firefox now opens a weird back door type of search screen that is hard to read, it used to work fine. Internet Explorer opens the normal search screen. I have screen shots of the two searches if this is helpful.

    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Clear Firefox's Cache
    Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
    2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here:
    right-click the page, choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    If that doesn't help, you might try using Firefox's Safe Mode as a diagnostic tool to see whether one of your add-ons could be at fault.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
    [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
    Does that fix it?
    I should add that the site seemed to work normally for me, but I can only test logged out and the logged in behavior might be different.
