MCX Managed printers problem with Adobe CS5.5

I manage 300 or so Macs running 10.6x with a 10.6 server using Workgroup Manager.
I am having a problem where the managed printers multiply exponentially in Adobe applications, so that on some machines there may be 15 or so versions of the same printer in the print dialogue box. This only happens in Adobe Applications. When I look in CUPS there are multiple MCX versions of the same printer, no other Applications seem to be picking up these extra printers. If I reset the print system and reboot then everything returns to normal for a while, but the extra printers slowly return. Is anybody else having the same problem and managed to solve it?

Did you ever resolve this? I'm also having issues!

Any problems with Adobe CS5.5 and the Maverick system?

Has anyone had any problems with Adobe CS5.5 and the new Maverick OS? I don't want to install if there are issues. Thanks!

First thing I would suggest is to upgrade your server OS to a newer version if possible. Secondly try removing the apps out of the allowable apps list and instead change it so that you allow the apps that are within the specific application folder, ex: Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS5
I had similar problems with CS5 apps and by adding the apps by allowable folder instead it corrected my problem. Granted, if you have savvy users, there is the potential to open a can of worms here but it was the only way I could get it to work for "standard" non-admin user types.

Printing problems with Adobe CS5

Hello all, I recently replaced the printers in one of our university Art Dept labs; they are using iMacs running Mac OS X 10.6.8 with Adobe CS5. They had three Ricoh CL4000DN color laser printers. They bought 3 Ricoh C320DN color laser printers to replace them.
Now, pictures that previously printed fine on the old printers look bad (color and black both incorrect) when printed with Photoshop and other CS5 programs on the new printers - especially when compared with the onscreen picture and the same picture printed with the old printer.
However, to make things even more interesting, these pictures print fine using the Preview program that came with the computers.
I've experimented with different color profiles, printer settings, updated the Adobe programs - so far with no success.
Temporarily, they are printing the needed pictures, etc. with the Preview program until we can find what's causing this issue. They are about ready to have me re-install the old printers.
I've already contacted Ricoh and their response was, well since it's printing okay via the preview program, not our problem...
Any ideas on what to check, change, upgrade next?
Thanks
Anthony Bailey

I would contact Ricoh, the suppliers of the printers, and query about the drivers, making sure that you are using the latest PostScript drivers for this printer.
I did lookup this printer on Ricoh's website. Apparently unlike your older printers that used Adobe PostScript 3, these low-cost C320DN printers do not use Adobe PostScript 3, but rather a third party “emulation of PostScript 3.” That could be your problem – a poor PostScript implementation in the printer.

Problems with Adobe CS5 on mobile user accounts

Hello Everyone,
I'm a high school web design teacher and I’m having trouble getting Adobe CS5 to run on my student workstations when they are logged in as a “mobile” user.
Workstation 10.5.8
Server 10.4.9
Workgroup manager 10.5.3
Students can browse the web, use Microsoft products and everything else. They are only having trouble with CS5. If I log into the workstation as “administrator” I can use any Adobe product without problems.
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Todd

Anyone having printer problems with adobe cs5 and mountain lion

I can print one copy in adobe cs5 but if I hit the print button it shuts down the program. Anyone having this problem besides me?

Are the drivers for your printer are up to date? You probably can print one copy cause it doesn't access the option window in your application.

Problems with Adobe CS5 Photoshop since Help Desk install

i downloaded the CS5 Photoshop upgrade and attempted to install. It would not install so i contacted the help desk about 2 weeks ago. The help desk rep signed into my mac and after about an hour or so was able to complete the install of Photoshop.
However, now when i try to add plug ins, i get an error message with the plugin installed (tried 3 different ones) saying that I do not have Photoshop installed.
Went to online chat and they told me to call 800 number,
Called 800 number and cued myself for a call back. Ryan called me back took all my information and then the line was disconnected. He took my callback number but never did call back.
Called 800 number a second time, qued myself for a call back. Adobe called me back, i waited 10 minutes with music, the music stopped and someone was on the line, but they disconnected the call.
Now on 3rd call back with a 40 minute wait. and i am waiting until someone answers

There support sucks. I have trying to install mime. Was in two different chats and still nothing. Not a happy camper.

Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with re

Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with reddish cast and loss of detail
System: Windows 7
Adobe CS5
Printer: Epson Stylus Photo 1400
Paper: Inkjet matte presentation paper with slight luster
Installed latest patch for Adobe CS5
Epson driver up to date
After reading solutions online and trying them for my settings for 2 days I am still unable to print what I am seeing on my screen in Adobe CS5. I calibrated my monitor, but am not sure once calibration is saved if I somehow use this setting in Photoshop’s color management.
The files I am printing are photographs of dogs with lots of detail I digitally painted with my Wacom tablet in Photoshop CS5 and then printed with Epson Stylus 1400 on inkjet paper 20lb with slight luster.
My Printed images lose a lot of the detail & come out way to dark with a reddish cast and loss of detail when I used these settings in the printing window:
Color Handling: Photoshop manages color, Color management -ICM, OFF no color adjustment.
When I change to these settings in printer window: Color Handling: Printer manages color. Color management- Color Controls, 1.8 Gamma and choose Epson Standard it prints lighter, but with reddish cast and very little detail and this is the best setting I have used so far.
Based on what I have read on line, I think the issue is mainly to do with what controls are set in the Photoshop Color Settings window and the Epson Printer preferences. I have screen images attached of these windows and would appreciate knowing what you recommend I enter for each choice.
Also I am confused as to what ICM color management system to use with this printer and CS5:
What is the best ICM to use with PS CS5 & the Epson 1400 printer? Should I use the same ICM for both?
Do I embed the ICM I choose into the new files I create?
Do I view all files in the CS5 workspace in this default ICM?
Do I set my monitor setting to the same ICM?
If new file opens in CS5 workspace and it has a different embedded profile than my workspace, do I convert it?
Do I set my printer, Monitor and PS CS5 color settings to the same ICM?
Is using the same ICM for all devices what is called a consistent workflow?
I appreciate any and all advice that can be sent my way on this complicated issue. Thank you in advance for your time and kind help.

It may be possible to figure out by watching a Dr.Brown video on the subject of color printing. Adobe tv
I hope this may help...............

I have problem with Adobe ColdFusion Server Manager.

I have a problem with Adobe ColdFusion Server Manager when you log on and connect to the server. An advantage of the settings do not load.

When I see others screen cuts of CF Server Manager here:
http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/index.cfm/2009/10/21/Quick-example-of-Diff-within-the-ColdFu sion-Server-Manager
http://forta.com/blog/index.cfm/2009/7/6/Simplified-ColdFusion-Server-Management
the Errors View button display’s the yellow ! sign. Without a better guide I just thought that is a normal button icon until I noticed Charlie comment earlier in the thread and I thought hold up that is not normal.
As it is when I press Errors View I get “no error” which might be because there is none or just simply not giving meaningful details as per some other CF Server Manager limitations previously noticed in other threads on forum here.
I just hope some of that helps the original post to do with the display of the settings on left side. Maybe a better look at the error might help? Does anything get logged in CFadmin UI > Debugging & Logging > Log Files that relates to issue?
Regards, Carl.

Strange problem with Adobe Acrobat X (crash without a trace)

Hi,
I have a strange problem with Adobe Acrobat. It happens totally randomly, it leaves no signs in system logs.
What is happening: during my work Adobe Acrobat sudennly crashes. After a crash I cannot run it again - system seems to do something for a second, but then nothing happends. When i look into taks manager - there are no processes of Acrobat.exe. It just doesn't want to run. What I need to do is to reinstall whole Adobe Acrobat - which requires restart.
I've already tried to restart system after crash, it doesn't help - reinstall is required.
Sometimes everyting is fine for a 3 months, sometimes crash happens a week after the previous one. It also happens in very different situations (somtimes while opening a file, sometimes when doing something simple, sometimes in more complex tasks).
Has anyone encountered a similar problem?

Problem with ID CS5 to epub

Dear Adobe
I have the following problem with Indesign CS5.
After placing correctly my pdf doc into ID CS5 and exporting it for epub, the exported epub file is generated with only small size. I mean when i opened the epub file with Adobe digital edition, i can not maximums the size of the doc. I think the problem is that ID CS5 is added a page number for only the first page in the right bottom of the first page only. This will makes the doc to be displayed with maximum only by adding an extra blank page to the right of each generated page which contains only a page number, so that I can not change the display size in Adobe digital edition. However, Adobe digital edition is working well for other e-books.
How can I remove the page number on the first page and make the epub file to be displayed with normal size.
best regards

Problem with ID CS5 to epub - Please Help

Dear Adobe
I have the following problem with Indesign CS5.
After placing correctly my pdf doc into ID CS5 and everything is OK, I exported it for epub, the exported epub file is generated with only small page size. I mean when i opened the epub file with Adobe digital edition, i can not maximums the size of the doc. I think the problem is the ID CS5 is added a blank page in the right of each page. The blank page contains only a page number for only the first page in the right bottom of the first page only. This will makes two pages to be displayed and tends to reduce the size of original page and the epub-doc to be displayed with maximum size only by adding an extra blank page to the right of each generated page which contains only a page number.
How can I remove the page number on the first added page and make the epub file to be displayed with normal size.
