MacBooks can't resolve printer name when sending job to windows 2008 R2 print server.

So I am work at company in a windows server 2008 r2 and we have a windows 2008 r2 printer server. Our macbook pros are not on the domain so every time we print to the server we have to type in our credentials.
MacBooks can't resolve printer name when sending job to windows 2008 R2 print server while on wifi but works when hard wired. Any thoughts? The error message I receive is "invalid printer name". I've tried adding the printer through the advanced tab in the print and scan tab of system preferences. I add it buy smb://servername/printername.
When I tried to print on the wifi at my office I get "invalid printer name" in the print job status que.
We can just do direct printing but I would like to know if anyone has had this issue before and if you could point me in the right direction. Thanks!

I assume you aare using exchange when configuring the email notifications? What I would do is just use a normal IMAP & SMTP account such as Outlook.com or if you use a POP connector for exchange, one of those accounts' SMTP settings.
For example, I have a POP connector installed and my emails are hosted at 1and1. What I would do here is put my 1and1 SMTP settings in and use these, instead of using Exchange.
Let me know if this is possible.

How to activate Windows 8.1 on a Windows 2008 R2 KMS server when I don't have Windows 2012 R2 kms host key

I only have windows 8.1 kms host key but I can't add a client OS kms key to Windows 2008 R2 kms server. And I don't have Windows 2012 R2 license either. Is there any way I can activate Windows 8.1 using my existing kms server? Thanks.

I would like a yes no clarification answer. So does this mean that EVEN WITH THE PATCH. My Server 2012 Standard edition that currently hosts KMS VA for clients running Win7, Win 8, Office15, Server 2008, Server 2012. Will not be able to host windows 8.1?
I will have to install 8.1 and use as a host?
if you have a KMShost product key for WS2012R2, you can patch a down=level Server and be fine.
(the OP didn't renew SA or otherwise has no KMShost pkey for WS2012R2)

I'm having similar issues and have a similar question that doesn't seem to be answered:
My KMS server is Windows 2008 R2 (Also is my domain controller). I want to activate Windows 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1 machines off this KMS server. I can install the 2012 R2 key just fine but receive error 0xC004F015 (The Software Licensing Service reported
that the license is not installed) when I try to install my 8.1 KMS key.
What I'm gathering from this thread is that I have to set up a Windows 8.1 host and set it up to be a KMS server exclusively for activating Windows 8.1. Is this correct? If so, Microsoft needs to fix that. I have a SERVER for activations for a reason: it
is a server, not a client. If I am mis-understanding, how do I get my Windows 2008 R2 server to accept the Windows 8.1 KMS key for activating 8.1 clients?
Thanks!
You don't need Windows 8.1 KMS key. Your 2012 R2 KMS key will be able to activate your Windows 8.1 machines. So your current set up is fine, no need to set up another Windows 8.1 KMS host.
My problem is I don't have 2012 R2 KMS key as I didn't buy any Windows 2012 R2 license. So I can't use 2012 R2 KMS key to activate my Windows 8.1.
Oh that's interesting. I guess I need to play around more because my 8.1 test machine isn't activating. I'll start a new thread for that if needed. Sorry for the confusion.

Certain characters not appearing in the "full name" when sending e-mail

I have certain characters in my full name of one of my e-mail aliases in iCloud. However, those characters are simply absent from the name shown as sender name when sending mail from Mail app in OS X. For me the problematic characters are C5 A1 and C4 8D (UTF-8 codes).

Yes, š and č are those. Sorry, I wasn't sure if they will work here. I have my full name containing the š and č in the "Full Name" field of the e-mail alias settings on web interface to the iCloud Mail. But in Mail on OS X my name in the "From" field appears without those two characters (other characters are OK) when I select this alias. Also, those two characters are invisible at the recipient's side. And yes, if I sent a copy of such a mail to myself the š and č are missing again in the "From" field.
However, I have the same full name with š and č for my main e-mail address (iCloud account name). Using this main e-mail address š and č appear everywhere!

My Macbook Pro has a black screen when running in Bootcamp Windows 7. Since I updated the mac side my windows side now starts up with completely black screen - no prompt, nothing, Cap keys still light up as does mouse and DVD drive seems to run.
Will not show up in safe mode, will not show when started from Windows 7 DVD.
I suspect the Mac update wiped out my PC video drivers but can not think of a way to re-install?
Can see the PC volume from Mac side with files.
I've looked at all the online solutions so far and have tried most of them without success. Please help!

Specifically, the posts by Dunsany and valkyr did the trick. I booted in safe mode, uninstalled and deleted the Nvidia driver, disabled automatic driver installation, and restarted normally. I then manually downloaded and installed the previous Nvidia driver for my graphics card (which at the time of this writing was 335.23, rather than the latest which was 337.88), and everything is now bueno!
Two hiccoughs along the way: First, when I tried to uninstall the Nvidia driver the first time, when I restarted I got the login screen (which was a good sign), but it quickly went black again. I powered down, restarted in safe mode again, and repeated the uninstallation process, and it worked the second time. Second, when I started the manual install of the 335.23 driver, the computer played a sound similar to the one for disconnecting a USB device, and the screen went black. I'd seen a lot about trying to increase the brightness (though it hadn't worked up to this point; but if you haven't tried it yet, might as well); I tried it, and it worked! So far I'm back up and running. [/fingers crossed]
Hope this helps someone else!

When sending job from Final Cut Pro to Compressor using local QCluster

When sending job from Final Cut Pro to Compressor by way of Share and using the local QCluster, the audio renders, but the video errors out saying something along the lines of Can not locate file.
If I use 'This Computer' it works fine.
What gives?
Fresh install of OS and FCS.
Thanks!

I'm just learning the intricacies of Compressor and Qmaster myself, but I have learned that when you use Qmaster you can not share directly from FCP. You must export a Quicktime movie (reference movie seems to be fine) and input that to Compressor. This is only an issue when using Qmaster, as you've seen.

Hi.
I think I solved this yesterday. We got 1 printserver, with an alias, which we had this problem to connect to. I noticed that there is a difference between x86 and 64bits system entries in the registry...
When you are having a 64bit system, you must use REG_QWORD instead of REG_DWORD, REG_DWORD is only to be used in x86 system! See below.
Windows 2008 server R2 64-bit
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print
= ”DnsOnWire” = REG_QWORD Decimal = 1
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\print /v DnsOnWire /t REG_QWORD /d 1)
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters
= DisableStrictNameChecking = REG_QWORD Decimal = 1
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters /v DisableStrictNameChecking /t REG_QWORD /d 1)
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters\
REG_SZ = OptionalNames = “aliasname” (C-name record in DNS)
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters /v OptionalNames /t REG_SZ)
Windows 2008 server x86
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print = "DnsOnWire" = REG_DWORD Decimal = 1
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\print /v DnsOnWire /t REG_DWORD /d 1)
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Lanmanserver\Parameters = DisableStrictNameChecking = REG_DWORD Decimal = 1
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters /v DisableStrictNameChecking /t REG_DWORD /d 1)
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanManServer\Parameters\ REG_SZ = OptionalNames = “aliasname”
(C-name record in DNS)
(reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters /v OptionalNames /t REG_SZ)
Don't forget to reboot your system after these changes!

How can I force my printer to print doublesided when sending a doc through eprint?

I found out how to force my printer to accept doublesided as standard when printing but it still does not print doublesided when I am sending a print job through HPeprint: can I force that somewhere?

Sorry to hear that it is not possible to print twodieded when mailing file to printer.
I would also like to be able to choos color or black-only printing when mailing.
I could accept to have 4 differnt mailadresses to same printer for setting b/w, color and 1or2sided printing.
Or at least change the default setting to when I mail it wil alllways be 2sided.
Should not be to hard to allow us to modify defaults at least.
To add configurable options with mulitple adresses would require more I think.

Why can't I change my "from" name when sending email in iCloud

I can't change my name as it appears in the 'from" when sending from icloud,
Thanks,

if I try to add a calendar it won't let me change the name of it.
Not sure what you mean. Do you add a new calendar? Then you don't "change" but give it a new name. Or do you want to change an existing one. Then you're back to my first response here, if nothing else.

When send the report directly to the printer from Oracle IDS 9i

Hi.....
I m using Oracle IDS 9i, Oracle AS 9i and Database 9i for my new project.But i m facing a problem when i m trying to show a report from oracle IDS 9i.When i send the report directly to the printer without showing it,then the printer connected to the application server is working.But the printer connected to with PC(From where a send the command) is not working but printer connected with AS is working,but not that one which one i m wanting.....Why this problem is happening?Can anyone help me?
KSI

Note:It is always better to have network based printers rather then PC shared printers. What that means is your printer is not connected to a PC. It has a direct connection to the network via NIC. You would then setup the printer on your AS in the printers setup. If the AS is rebooted you do not need to authenticate the printer shares again with a network based printer.
If I understand you correctly, you have a printer connected to your AS(application server) and a printer connected to your PC. You can submit a report direct to the printer connected to the AS but cannot send a report direct to your printer connected to your PC.
From the symptoms you described, the problem is usually associated with the AS not being able to see the printer shared on your PC. You either have the address to your printer address defined wrong or your AS is trying to direct a job to your printer but doesn't have rights to do it.
First, Try to print a notepad job to your printer attached to your PC from the AS. This will tell you if you have access to do so or not.
- If it can't, you need to figure out why? This has nothing to do with oracle.
Second, thing to check is your Oracle "Report Queue Manager" on the AS. Make sure that you can submit a report manually from the Report Queue Manager. If it fails the "Report Queue Manager" will give you useful errors as to why it failed. This will help you isolate the problem.
Third, Once you can submit a job from the reports queue manager manually to your shared printer you should be able to submit from your application direct. If it still does not work your address to the printer is incorrect. Try submitting manually through the reports queue manager again. When selecting printer you will be given a list of accessible printers from the AS. Select the one connected to your PC. Once selected the full network address will appear. Copy and use this as the printer location in your job submission through your application.
That's it... Where using this right now and it works great. Hope this helps.
Eric.

Change sender's name when sending SMS

Dear Skype supporter,
I would like to use my name which is different from my skype name and forbid the message reply when sending SMS. Whether it works? I found I can either show my skype name or my mobile phone number when sending SMS. Look forward to your kind reply.
Thanks a lot.

We created a skype to send SMS to customers.
When receiving the SMS it currently shows an unknown phone number, is it possible to change this phone number into a company name? If so how can I do this?
Thank you.
Because SMS goes out over mobile phone networks, the messages must be sent from a number. Since Skype does not provide a way to receive SMS messages, the closest you can get to using your own number would be to set up a mobile number (except mobiles in Japan or Mexico) as Caller ID. Then your Skype SMS messages could carry your mobile number, providing a way for people to reply to your messages.

How to alter my display name when sending from an alias?

When sending emails from my iphone, using an alias, I've noticed that it sends it using my real name. This defeats the purpose of using an alias!
When I send it from my Mac using the mail app, or from icloud on the web, it uses the name I've designated for the alias, but this is not the case on my phone.
How can I get the mail app on my iphone to use the display name I've designated for the alias?

Just go to icloud.com and click the gear in the top right corner (Preferences). Then go to the "accounts" tab and click on the alias you are trying to use and then when it comes up, insert the name you would like to use. If there's any more questions you have, just reply.
