Lots of trouble!
After running all the tests on my printer hp photosmart 7400 series to confirm that works, I have no choice but to bother you because it receives the command to print,shows "printing" and after a few seconds stops jobs by it self. Checked connection, followed all the steps.
I trashed all the HP folders and installed it again but nothing changed. Just in case I repaired permissions on my system. I've been reading all day without any idea of what to do. I notice that I have many, all kinds of blank icons files with the word "plist" at the end located in Applications Support folder..not only HP files but many different aplications. Would this have anything to do with it? Can I delete those blank pages-like files?
I am lost! Please help.
Thank you.
You're Welcome hostalady!
But you shouldn't just trash those .plist files willy-nilly.
.plist are usually deleted when a user is having problems with particular applications and programs.
There are more efficient methods of creating more free space, such as using an external Firewire Hard Drive to store data like your personal documents, music, movies, photos, etc.
If the Mac does not run 24/7, the Cron Tasks do not run, so it is also a good idea to either execute the commands manually, or to use a Third-Party utility.

Here are a few, of the numerous utilities available.

Dear everyone
I need to configure Acrobat to display PDF files in Safari, but I have a lot of troubles to do it.
I read a european commission document explaining that
http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/data/support/sep_usermanual.pdf
If Safari does not display pdf forms in the browser window, uninstall all older versions of Adobe Reader and download the most recent one. First close Safari and then install Reader. Launch Safari and you ought to be able to open the pdf files inside the Safari window. If you install Adobe Reader 10.1.x without first closing Safari, Safari will not display the pdf file inside its browser window until it is re-launched. For further help, please see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-safari-plug-acrobat-x.html
I have OX S yosemite, I unistalled adobe acrobat, I closed safary and I installed the new version of adobe acrobat
but when I open a web page that I need to allow me to display and modify PDF files it is not working.
I checked the following web page
Troubleshoot Safari plug-in | Acrobat X, Reader X
that is recommending the following:
The AdobePDFViewer plug-in is used to display PDF files in Safari using Acrobat and Reader.
This plug-in is installed as part of the Acrobat X or Reader X installation. The location of this plug-in is:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
but after the new installation with this folder is completely empty and I am still
unable to open these pdf.
Does anybody knows anything else I can do?
Best regards

I am having a lot of trouble downloading itunes.My latest error message is that MediaToolbox.dll is missing. I have been trying to fix this for three days now .And it all started with the last update .Can anyone help?
Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

Hi i am have had a lot of trouble emptying my trash. when i go to put something in there it asks from my password and the item goes off the screen, but this does not clear any space on the hard drive.
1. Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/.Trash
2. Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info
from the contextual menu. An Info dialog should open.
3. The dialog should show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section. If that's not what it shows, click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your password when prompted. Use the plus- and minus-sign buttons to give yourself Read & Write access and "everyone" No Access. Delete any other entries in the access list.
4. In the General section, uncheck the box marked Locked if it's checked.
5. From the action menu (gear icon) at the bottom of the dialog, select Apply to enclosed items and confirm.
6. Close the Info window and test. -
ITunes7 Lots of trouble with synchronizing! Does anyone know what to do?
I'm having lots of trouble since I installed iTunes7. It takes hours to synchronize my Ipod (40 Gb). The first synchronizing, iTunes7 reinstalled the whole library (7000 songs). After 5 hours, the synchronizing was completed. After playing a few songs on my iPod, I tried out a second synchronizing. iTunes7 synchrionized again all 7000 songs, which would never have happened with iTunes6.0.5. With iTunes6.0.5 it would take a few minutes! By the way, some old bugs are still in iTunes7. For example, sometimes songs bought from iShop are not synchronized to my iPod. iTunes gives a stupid message that the software on my iPod is an old version, which is not true! Yes, my iPod migth be old (3 yrs), but if Apple continious like that, the next mp3-player won't be from Apple
The issue resolved itself. After synchronizing a few times, things got back to normal!

I don’t know why but I create a WEB site and my friends who use a pc windows, have a lot of trouble when they open my movies. The other friends who use Apple, they don’t have problem. I have iMovie11 and my extension file is .m4v. Is it because the extension .m4v is bad for windows ?
No web site expert here but I would suggest changing the .m4v to .mp4 and ask one of those friends if they still have problems. .m4v is something I always associate with iTunes and don't really see it used elsewhere.

All of the sudden I am having a lot of trouble with Safari.
Rather then trying to explain what Safari is doing, are the Installed plug-ins updated when I do a "Apple>Software update?" I need to update Shockwave Flash 10.0 r45. Any idea how to update this other then using the download icon? I can't even find this program on Adobe's website except for the Shockwave Player that has been created by Director. Not sure if this is what I want to fix the issues I am having with a lot of websites that use a lot of interactive demos, 3D, Games, etc.
Also, is resetting the cookies something that would cause me a lot of problems with websites I use that need to identify me? (I ask because I was told to try "removing cookies."Hi
what do you mean by; "sign-in details to hand?"
simply a record outside of cookies of usernames & passwords for sites that store such things in cookies - google, yahoo, apple etc etc all store some info this way. It's not a setting or os x feature, just a reminder to you you - make sure you know them before removing cookies.
Why would the Apple Expert tell me to update Shockwave, Flash Player....nike.com...
I can't think why - I just looked at nike.com & don;t see anything requiring shockwave player, just Flash. Maybe it's buried somewhere, eh.
I am so confused. What is the best thing to with Flash Player, Shockwave, and Shockwave Player?
I would ignore shockwave player until or if you arrive at a page you want to see that says "you need shockwave". Then if/when you need it, try installing shockwave 11 for intels
For Flash - go to Adobe Flash Download & get the latest one.
I'm fairly sure (having just used it there, especially) that Flash 10.0.45 isn't gonna cause you 'a lot of trouble' at nike,com. So likely there's something else amiss.
I suggest that you describe in more detail what the troubles are with nike/other sites, and whether or not they persist when testing briefly in a New User Account which is a good step in troubleshooting, since it eliminates everything in your regular account as a possible cause. -

I'm having lots of trouble finding semi-decent equipment at an affordable price. I would like to start a podcast with two hosts and I have a macbook pro that i purchased in april 2011. any suggestions?
I should keep it simple - if you start getting involved with mixers and multiple microphones you will find the cost escalating alarmingly. If you can get yourself a decent microphone and spend some time doing tests to find the best way of balancing the voices you should be able to get acceptable results. You can't plug an ordinary microphone directly into a Mac - you would need a mixer or a preamplifier - so it's probably worth looking at USB mics. I don't know what cost range is available, and you would have to check that they would work with your Mac. Otherwise you will need an ordinary moving-coil mic and probably a USB audio converter which can accept a microphone - look at the Roland site.

Lot of troubles (impossible) installing Solaris 10 on VMware Workstation 6
Hi, i'm experiencing troubles trying to install Solaris 10 x_86 (the last release) on VMware Workstation 6.
During the creation of the virtual machine I selected Solaris 64bit (I'm running an Intel Core2Duo CPU), selected the first ISO image and boot up the virtual machine. The installation of the first cd went just fine.
During the installation of the second cd, at a certain percent (sometimes ~50%, or later) the virtual machine reboots: I select the first choice on grub menu, but Solaris tolds me that something about the root repository (I don't remember well) is out of sync, and suggest me to reboot in failsafe mode and repair it; I did it and reboot...Doing this way I installed the second cd, but for the third (it happened the same -reboot- problem) it didn't work:
after fixed the repository in failsafe mode, and after reboot it doesn't start the installer, and shows this message:
http://img469.imageshack.us/my.php?image=solarishangsoi3.png
Please help me! I don't really know where/what I'm doing wrong...
Thanks really a lot for any help.

GabrieleSimply Great, I had to Reboot the OS and I went to Failsafe mode where it went to single user mode and ask to update boot_archive, that worked.
When i Shutdown and Rebooted the System i could see system booting nicely and then it gave me bunch of Errors.
I think i will go and Do a Fresh Install again :( -
After effects takes too long to render, broadcasting time is soon, so I'm in a lot of trouble!!! :(
Hello!
I started to render a pretty easy animation 13 days ago.
The animation is 4.30 minutes long, and there's no 3d involved. Only illustrations from Illustrator and some textures.
After these 13 days of rendering, and finishing 4 minutes, it felt like crashing. So it did.
This animation is for Belgian television (broadcasting time is soon), along with 20 more, so I am in deep deep trouble.
I use my mac pro, from a seagate hard drive.
> codec apple prores hq (this is what the company wants)
Could really use help to solve this problem!!
Thanks a lot
EllenHi!
I agree, something is very wrong with your scene or setup. I would recommend the following actions:
1. Make a RAM preview in After Effects, in full resolution. If you have layers with frame blending or motion blur, make sure to enable the frame blending and motion blur boxes in the top of the timeline so that it shows up in the preview. Also, check the Preview settings window and make sure that no frames are skipped and that it renders in full resolution.
If the RAM preview is rendered as slowly as your final render, then the problem is inside of after effects or with your source files. If the RAM preview is a lot faster than the rendering, the problem is likely in the codec or Adobe Media Encoder (if you render through AMC that is).
2A: IF your RAM preview is extremely slow, try hiding the layers one by one and making more RAM previews to locate problematic source files.
2B: If the RAM preview worked fine, try to render into a different, lossless format – like an uncompressed quicktime or avi file or a quicktime animation with max quality – directly from after effects (In the top menu: Composition/Add to render queue, where you'll likely find some lossless preset). Make sure you have A LOT of free hard drive space before rendering. If this rendering works fine you are left with a lossless file that can be compressed to the apple prores hq-format in any compatible software. For example, you can try opening the file in Premiere and render the Prores from there. With a google search you will probably find lots of ways to render Apple Prores files.
You could also check the resolution of both your main composition and your pre-comps. Avoid using unnecessarily high resolutions, it will only slow things down.
Restarting your computer to clear RAM memory and close eventual bugging processes could also be a good idea.
Good luck!

Lots of trouble with BB Torch 9860.
Hello. Right, I have the Torch 9860, had for several months & getting a lot of grief. Here goes...
1 - Battery life is inconsistent - Can last all day most days, but other days can go down 90% within 10 minutes of use.
2 - Software - When I first got the phone, within a week of using, the phone wouldn't load on the BlackBerry loading screen, it got to 3/4's of the way and then stopped. Solution I found was to hold the back key down to load in a 'safe mode.'
3 - Seperate issue, I was on Youtube one night and I pressed to open a video & my phone turned off. When loading again, issue 2 happened, but rather than staying on this, it went to 'Error 102, Reload software.' which I did via BB Desktop Software.
4 - Constant black timer loading, can be doing anything on any screen with nothing open & it will just load for about 20 seconds.
5 - Similar to number 4, pressing the standby button, black screen. I know the phone is on, because it flashes. I will hold the standby button again, nothing. I press the power off (End call) button, nothing, it then comes on with 'Handheld turning off, press any key to cancel.'
6 - The speed of opening anything. Isn't this device meant to have a super fast processor? Doesn't for me. Everything I open takes time. Texts, BBM, Camera.
7 - My calls don't work. I'll ring anyone and it says 'Connected' with the time displayed. no sound. I put it on loudspeaker, nothing. Headphones in, again nothing. I end up doing a battery pull and it works for a while then cuts off during a call.
With all this, I have done a software update, I've done a back up. I've done a lot of different things. I just felt I needed to come on here to fix this.

Thanks.Hello...and apologies for the delayed reply!
Hopefully you already have this resolved, but just in case...I suggest you do a clean and controlled OS reload, using the process outlined later down in this post...
At the top of each device forum, there should be some "sticky" threads that discuss the OS levels available for many models. If they include your model, then please use those as reference as you proceed. Otherwise, you will have to dig through the official download portal for OS packages for your model:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
From a PC, you can install any compatible (e.g., for your exact BB Model Number) OS package to a BB via this procedure:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
You may also want to investigate the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe it is capable of.
You may also want to try this procedure to perhaps narrow down the precise causal item:
Load your OS "bare bones"...if anything is optional, do not install it.
If the behavior presents immediately, then try a different OS with step 1
If the behavior does not immediately present, then run for as long as it takes for you to be sure that the behavior will not present.
Add one thing -- no matter how tempting, just one.
If the behavior does not present immediately, then again run for long enough to be sure it will not have the same problem
Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are loaded or the behavior presents
When the behavior presents, you know the culprit...the last thing you loaded.
If the behavior does not re-present, then you know that either step 1 or 2 cured it.
If the behavior presents no matter what, then you likely have a hardware level issue for which no amount of OS or software can cure.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

Lots of Trouble with a 1st generation MacBook
Hi everyone,
I'm writing for my sister, who's in Thailand having trouble with her MacBook. Hopefully you can help with the information I have. I'm sorry for the long message.
About a week ago, her 1st generation MacBook (running Leopard), full off the couch. She says it fell maybe a foot and a half and landed on some clothes. She didn't think it was a big deal, but when she opened it again, her desktop image had been changed with the blue Apple default. Nothing else appeared wrong with the desktop icons or anything else.
Then, she noticed Photoshop wouldn't open, MS Word wouldn't let her type or save, and Safari/Firefox were running super slow. She tried Disk and Permissions verify/repair, and also tried popping out the RAM and putting it back in (in case it had been dislodged). Today, she said that Word either refuses to open or opens but says there is a problem with the Office Database. Safari and Firefox are still running really slow.
She says she took it to an Apple approved repairshop in Bangkok, where the guys ran MacTuneUp and a permissions repair on Word. At the shop the computer was running fine, but once she got it home, it started acting up again. At times, it'll be running like normal and then revert back to being slow.
She also said she tried to download a VLC player online the day before the laptop fell. I don't know which one she tried to download.
Does anybody have any ideas for her to try?
Thanks for the help,
ToreaTo anyone who stumbles upon this post, we figured it out.
All we had to do was empty the cache in Safari and FireFox and it started working fine. We just didn't realize my sister had both browsers open the entire time.
