Installed Aperture update, now I can't print - says I need to install software to use this printer.

I prepare a photo in Aperture and send to the printer.  It appears to go through but I get the following error "You need to install software to use this printer. To install the software, choose Software Update from the Apple menu. If the software for your printer isn’t available in Software Update, contact the manufacturer of your printer."  Even though the printer has worked fine for two years up until today.  I re-downloaded the driver from Epson, installed and still the same thing.

I use an Epson 3880.  After upgrading to Lion, I had to upgrade/re-install the Epson printer drivers.  All work now.
There was a glitch in the installation, but I can't remember right now.
OP:  did you get the newest drivers -- for Mountain Lion?  did you uninstall the Epson 3880 before re-installing with the newest drivers?  have you rebooted?

    reinstall iPhoto - go to your receipts folder ("Your hard drive" ==> library ==> receipts) and remove any iPhoto receipts and reinstall from the restore disks that came with your computer - do a custom install of bundled software only

    9.1. is an update and can only be installed if you have purchased iLife '11 on DVD or iPhoto '11 from the App store - and iPhoto '11 will not run on OS 10.5.8 - or 10.5.1

  • I'm using Aurora versioon of Firefox. It won't print & says I need to install a printer but it's already installed.

    I'm using Aurora version of Firefox (v. 5.02a). I try to print but it won't and says I need to install a printer. I say OK but it then fails. I already have my printer installed and it works fine with all browsers but Aurora. This problem happened about the time I was offered to upgrade to v 6.02a. I tried upgrading but the upgrade failed and I lost all my many tabs that I keep open for research for my writing. I must be able to print and wonder what I should do (and why 6.0a2 didn't work!).

    That 5.0a2 version is old as Firefox 5.0 has been on the Beta channel for some time now and is due for release on June 21 next week (despite what some sites wrongly claim).
    Firefox 6.0a2 has been getting developed on the Aurora channl for a few weeks now.
    You should update to recent Firefox 5.0 beta 7 at http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/channel/ or update when 5.0 is released.

  • Crashes so installed recent update now I can't see ANY of my adjustments

    Aperture crashed a lot so I updated with recent software update. Now I can't see ANY of my adjustments on any of my photos. Also if I want to make new adjustments the presets do not show preview. PLEASE HELP!!! This is slowing my progress down!

    I reinstalled Prokit 7 upgrade and it did not fix the problem.
    I put my fonts in user/library/fonts, where I have always put them and when I am in any Creative suite app. the only fonts visible in the font list are open type and TT fonts. No type 1 fonts appear in the list even though I have them in the fonts folder. They do not appear in fontbook either.

  • I have a Mac running OS X 10.6.8 and have installed all updates and disabled Java Applets.  Do I need to put virus protection on this computer and, if so, any recommendations?

    I have a Mac running OS X 10.6.8 and have installed all updates and have disabled Java Applets.  Do I need to install antivirus software and, if so, do you have a recommendation on what works best.

    Mac OS X versions 10.6.7 and later have built-in detection of known Mac malware in downloaded files. The recognition database is automatically updated once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders. In most cases, there’s no benefit from any other automated protection against malware.
    The most effective defense against malware is your own intelligence. All known malware that affects a fully-updated installation of Mac OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of trojans, which can only work if the victim is duped into running them. If you're smarter than the malware attacker thinks you are, you won't be duped. That means, primarily, that you never install software from an untrustworthy source. How do you know a source is untrustworthy?
    Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown site, merely in order to use the site, is untrustworthy.
    A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim.
    “Cracked” versions of commercial software downloaded from a bittorrent are likely to be infected.
    Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. No intermediary is acceptable.
    Disable Java (not JavaScript) in your web browser(s). Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This setting is mandatory in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, because Java in those versions has bugs that make it unsafe to use on the Internet. Those bugs will probably never be fixed, because those older operating systems are no longer being maintained by Apple. Migrate to a newer version of the Mac OS as soon as you can.
    Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can reasonably be.
    Never install any commercial "anti-virus" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use ClamXav — nothing else.

  • Newest flash player installed but window keeps popping up saying I need it installed

    I have tried over and over again, installing, uninstalling the Newest Edition of Adobe Flash Player.  Even though the icon shows up in my programs listing saying its in the computer and that the installation was complete, I still get these small windows showing up stating I need to install the latest flash player when I want to view certain videos.  Is it in the computer or not?  Help!!

    I have a Compaq Presario F700 32 bit computer with Internet Explorer 9 as defaullt browser.  I have been having issues getting the flash Player to work....it keeps coming up that I need to download the Flash player when I try to view a video online,like off the weather channel or You tube.  It IS in my program list when I open up Programs. sometimes videos come up, other times not.  I uninstalled it, reinstalled it, uninstalled it again and again, the screen says that it installed successfully but the window still pops up saying I need to install the newest edition.    I have been having issues with my computer after updating a PC cleaner ARO2012, but this download is taken out now, Also when I put a recent update on the Weather channel, the computer froze up, otherwise it was doing pretty well yesterday. It seems like I have a problem with updates from companies, I noticed it twice that the computer froze up soon after.
    Also I removed recent downloads thinking that was the problem but the issue still remains.  I  have done everything that Adobe had instructed in regard to trying to fix this. Even my Microsoft Fix it comes up with errors and I cannot run it.  I am beginning to think that my computer is just old(over 5 years) and the downloads are being affected by my hard disc drive not working properly.  I did a disc check and one time it stated I had a corrupted Disc C.  But then on Startup repair it claimed to have deleted or fixed the problem.   I get blue and black screens popping up on my computer often, saying that the program had to close to protect the computer.  So I don’t know...I did everything possible.  when I go onto the Adobe website.....that little screen they ask you if anything shows up on it to determine if Adobe is installed?  Well...it shows up completely blank, not even a error message...but yet, the Adobe Flash player is installed in my computer according to my programs list. Ok,  Hope I covered everything.  S Lind

    I had all my software, including my ‘Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium’ removed from my MacPro (OSX 10.10.2) by a Computer technician after I had inadvertently installed some malware.
    Now I can’t reinstall my CS4 because the installer software wants me to identify the product from which I am upgrading, but mine isn’t on the list. The old product from which I am upgrading is called ‘Adobe Design Collection’. Furthermore, it has 4 serial numbers (one each for Photoshop, InDesign, Acrobat and Illustrator), not just one, as the installer requires.
    I know this can be done, as I have had it working for a long time. Am I doing something wrong now?

    Contact support be web chat and have them generate a working temporary serial/ challenge code for the install.

  • I've installed LeechBlock and now I can't find it! Can anyone tell me where/ how to access it?

    Hi there,
    I'm new to using addons, so please forgive my ignorance. I've installed LeechBlock and now I can't see where to find it. Can anyone tell me where/ how to access it? I've looked under Addons in the Tools menu, but this just has options to install more addons.
    I had thought there'd be a button on the toolbar, or even a new toolbar, but I can't see anything...
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi, you're nearly there! When you are looking at the Add-ons you need to select Extensions on the left-hand side, and you should see it, together with your AdBlock plus. There might also be a button in the 3-bar menu - but I'm not familiar with that particular Add-on so can't be sure about that.
    Hope that helps.

  • Why can't I minimize more than 2 notepads in FF? I used to be able to minimize as many notepads as I wanted. FF must have done an update & now I can't do that anymore. Is there a setting I can change that will enable me to do that?

    # Question
    Why can't I minimize more than 2 notepads in FF? I used to be able to minimize as many notepads as I wanted. When I do research on a topic I keep many notepads open until I am finished. FF must have done an update & now I can't do that anymore. Is there a setting I can change that will enable me to do that again?
    Also at that time, the length of sentence I am typing changed.
    It doesn't seem to have any limit to how far it can extend to the right.
    Please help. I am not very techy & don't understand Computerese.
    Please explain in everyday English.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Prabhuti,
    Thank you so much for all your suggestions & helpful links to get help. I am not very computer literate. I have taken many classes over the years I've had a computer but I am still only a beginner.
    I want to tell you that I found a solution to my problem. I finally realized that maybe FF was not the problem but Wind. 7 on my new comp. I went on the 7 Forums & found another person who had the same problem & the answer was simple all I had to do was to right click on the Notepad icon & it would bring up a new Notepad & I could open & minimize as many as I want. I had moved the Notepad icon to my taskbar from the Start menu when I got my new computer.
    I have one more question for you. The notepad 2 program was mentioned there along with several others. I think it was about that prog. that someone said that it could open many notepads & when you closed the comp. the notepads would not disappear. Do you know if it was that program? Also is it possible to use that program the same way as I used the original Notepad? There are so many technical options on that program that I didn't understand. All I want to do is open the Notepad & copy & paste my notes in it & minimize them. Not losing them if I shut down the comp. would be real benefit to me. I believe that is the same prog. you recommended to me. Since you seem to understand tech things I thought maybe you could tell me if that is possible?
    Thank you so much for all your help.
