IDCS OSX10.4.11 Print Presets - Device Independent the only option

I have a clean build of 10.4.11 with InDesign CS installed from disk. First of all the update to 3.0.1 will download and install (I do make sure IDCS is closed) however it does not actually do anything even thought it says it completed successfully. I have tried this on 2 separate machines with similar results.
Second problem is really the more pressing matter. The machine is part of an Active Directory domain. The main admin account is able to see the menus just fine. However when a normal managed user logs in you get this.
When you go to File > Print Presets > Define > New... > Select Postscript File for Printer drop down > Device-Independent is the only option available for PPD. This is an issue because it does not allow for paper-sizes and other settings to be set. I really hope someone has overcome this issue and can direct me to fix it. I'm pretty savvy so please don't worry about explaining too in depth. A simple direction would help TONS.

Thanks much,

I have only a slight idea, but I'll give it a shot. Do you actually need the PPDs for the printers in your domain? If you're printing to PS and distilling, then you can just make sure that the user account in question has the PPD files in the correct places, as per Steve's post above. Drag and drop. You'd want to use the PPD folder in the user's library, of course, as I assume that the user that
i can't
see the PPDs wouldn't be able to see the system library at all.
If, on the other hand, you need to be able to get at the same PPDs as everyone else in your domain, then I think that your question is actually about CUPS. From a ten-second Google search, I'd guess that the user acct. must be able to get at the PPDs in /usr/share/cups/model/. Just a guess, though; it's been years since I've needed to know this kind of information.

My iPhone 4 will not turn on, when I plug it into my computer and load up iTunes its in recovery mode and the only option is to restore my device to factory settings, I have no back up of my phone I've also tried the home/sleep button thing but nothing, I have literally done every method I was told, I checked for water damage and that's fine. I don't want to restore my phone or buy a new one or pay for repairs because that's wasting money when it could be a simple way to fix it. And yes, I've also tried charging it and turning it in. I really need some help with my phone

That does happen. It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system. If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.

When I try to open a project, the only option for a new track is for external MIDI device; when I try to open an audio or software instrument track, I get an error message saying that "the specified number of tracks could not be created. Reduce the number of tracks to create and try again." I didn't specify ANY number of tracks. Thanks for help!

Ah.. then I suspect you just need to go to Logic's prefs/Audio and check CoreAudio...
It has been unchecked somehow...
Also.. as an aside.. Be careful not to create such large subject names in future when posting here.. They can cause issues with replying to posts in such threads.. due to a bug in the forum software.. so please keep them short and to the point...

HT4137 I am trying to follow the steps suggested in To restore you device from a previous backup, unfortunately the device is appearing in the list of devices. The sync option under devices is not also active. How can I resolve this?

I was trying to setup a new ipad. After resetting and erasing the content on the ipad, I would like to restore the ipad from the old backup. Unfortunately the device is not appearing in the list of devices. The sync option under devices is not also active. How else can I restore the ipad?

Sorry, you can't extract those photos from the old device unless you restore the new phone from that backup.
You could of course use a third party software to extract those pics but it will cost you.
If you still have the old phone import those pics to your computer and then sync those photos to your new phone via itunes.

I am trying to sync my ipod shuffle to the itunes on my computer. When I try to sync I go to the drop down file tab. PULL up "devices" But the extended options of SYNC, RESTORE, Transfer and Backup won't allow me to click on them. How do I activate?

Those menu bar commands are disabled when you do not have a device (your shuffle) selected in iTunes.
If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of iTunes) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. In the sidebar, your shuffle should be listed under DEVICES. Click on it there to select it. Now, those commands under the File menu should be accessible.
However, once you have the shuffle selected, many of those "device-related" commands in the menu bar are also on the iTunes window. For example, there is a Sync button at the low-right corner of the window, which does the same thing as the command in the menu bar.

There's an article that Apple has acknowledged this issue. They recommend turning off imessages, reset all settings and then reactivate imessages.
If that doesn't work, you may just have to wait until they release an update, which should be pretty soon.

When i try to AirPrint, the only option i get is 4 x 6 and there seems to be no way to change it. Is there a setting that I am not seeing? (using iMac w/ Yosemite.)The printer is a Canon MG7520.

i had many problems setting this printer (Canon MX7520) with my Mac so i don't want to reset the settings since I got most of them to work now. However, now it seems that whenever i try to AirPrint a document, it wants to print to 4x6 (photo) paper and not the regular paper. I have tried everything i can think of, but nothing seems to work. if you have any suggestions, i would be very grateful.

ok...I'm only talking about printing from an iOs device. The first time I set up the printer, all the documents printed to regular paper (tray #2) and photos would print to the 4 x 6 tray (tray #1.) However, there were other problems with the printer so I reset everything. Now when I 'AirPrint', it prints all documents to the 4 x 6 tray (tray #1). Something has been changed, but I'm not sure how nor how to fix it.

Firefox won't allow me to print a Web Page. The only option I am given is to Save the Web Page as a PDF File .

In FF 16.0.1 when I try to print a web page I get dialog box to save it as PDF. There is no other choice in the ‘save as type’ box. I do not want to save it; I just want to print it. This happens whether I use ‘file/print’ or the print button on FF. I use Win XP and HP all in one C7280 and no changes have been made recently to either. I looked for FF add- on to disable called ‘hp smart web printer’ that I read about in a closed FF support thread about this same problem but it is not on plug-in or add-on list. I also read in another closed thread on this issue to remove SWP using add/remove programs but its not listed. I believe this problem began when FF upgraded itself to 16.0.1 recently. The problem does not exist when I use I.E. or Chrome so logically it must be a FF issue. Its driving me crazy and I cannot find a solution that works anywhere. HELP please.

Old Fox....thanks so much. I do not have the HP smart web printing in my add ons or plug ins. I used SWP in my problem posting and should have spelled out HP smart web printing..sorry.
The NAME of the printer showed 'document converter'. WELL DUH! That was the problem all along. I have no idea how it got changed but I won't dwell on it. I have never had to look at those 'choices' because I don't need to change anything when I print but its never too late to learn.
I am so happy and thanks again

Printing to postscript using the scale option in UNIX

I can print to postscript without any problems but would like to scale the page down so I can fit 4 per printed page; is ths possible with the -scale option or any other option. I know this can be done within a windows environment but can this be done in UNIX at the command line.

The problem is a few
blocks we havent really seen yet. All these numerics and stuff outside
the while loop, what are they exactly, or are they just a different way
of viewing them? The stuff with the digital at INI phase, The block
in the lower right corner of the INI phase.
The digital block in the
dispatcher phase we didn't really understand.
I am not sure what you mean here can you circle it and send me a picture so that I can explain.

Adobe PDF (Print) presets: "Cannot create the file. The folder may be write protected."

In Windows 8, this feature of InDesign CS6 only works for the local Administrator account:
File -> Export -> Save as type: Adobe PDF (Print) -> Save -> Save Preset... -> OK
If you try it with any other account this error message is given: "Cannot create the file. The folder may be write protected."
For anyone else encountering this problem, a workaround is to run as administrator.

Which permissions exactly did you set, how did you set them and what did you set them to?
The path to the Drop Box would be /Users/someuser/Public/Drop Box but you obviously wouldn't want the ownership and permissions to be the same on all four directories.
Have you tried using Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility) to repair permissions? That would probably be the best way to ensure they're correct.

How do you reset data on iCloud? My first device that moved to iCloud is not the most accurate. The only option iCloud gives is to merge. I want to erase and reset up with my laptop to iCloud then add my other devices? Any help?

My first device that I moved to the cloud was not the most accurate. I want to erase what is on the iCloud and reset with my laptop first and then my other devices. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Before you start, I'd export the data from the notebook to your desktop as a back up.
Turn syncing off, if it isn't already, on the notebook (system preferences > iCloud), delete the data from the first device, turn on syncing on the notebook and merge.

HT201272 So when I check my items that aren't on my device in the purchased options, it says I'm missing an item. I checked my music and nothing is missing. It just says I am missing an item.

How do i delete a downloaded song from my device whilst leaving it in the cloud - when I go to delete the only option appears to be to delete from the cloud itself...

Any Ideas?

Hi del5662009. This should explain more. http://www.idownloadblog.com/2011/11/06/ios-5-delete-songs-music-app/. And even after you delete a song from your idevice, it will stay in the cloud. Sorry for my poor spelling in the last post. Hope this helps! Cheers.

How can I set Firefox to print to PDF, the only otions I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

A couple of weeks ago, from the file menu, in my print options was to print a web page to PDF, that facility is no longer there. does anyone know how can I set Firefox to print to PDF.
The only options I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

Firefox generally displays the printers in Windows' Printers folder (Start orb > Devices and Printers). If it is missing one of the printers listed there, could you indicate which one it is, for example, Adobe Distiller, PrimoPDF, CutePDF Writer, etc.?
If you previously had an add-on which added print-to-PDF functionality just to Firefox, perhaps it got disabled. You could check here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions
Also, are you really running Firefox 8.0.1? That version from last November is no longer secure and has been superseded by Firefox 11. If you browse the web widely, you should update for your security.

Why doesn't saving a print preset for selection printing work anymore? It previously did up to version 2.

I regularly like to highlight areas on web-pages, select print/name a print preset as "Print Selection" and check-mark 'Print Selection Only' of Options under the Firefox sub-heading. Then when I wanted to quickly print a selection instead of a whole web-page, I just highlighted an area, activated print, selected "Print Selection" and then checked print preview to view the selection before printing. That worked from version 2 only.
Now in version 3 +, all above can be done '''except''' the check-marked 'Print Selection Only' option in the Firefox sub-heading keeps resetting itself, even IF you have saved it check-marked as a print preset. Selecting the saved preset "Print Selection" next time will print (preview) the whole web-page, and not what was highlighted (selected) for printing. Why was this feature turned off?

Open Windows Event Viewer -> Custom Views -> Administrative Events. Look for the recent error messages with timestamp corresponding to Skype crash. Copy and paste here the text from the General tab.
