  • Print driver host for 32 bit app has stopped working

    Using Windows 7 64 bit. The printer is an HP Laser 1200. The 64 bit driver for the printer would not work, so I switched to the hp 2200 64 bit driver and the customer was able to print out of his CAD program and Excel.
    However Adobe Reader is a different matter. He got the message "print driver for the 32 bit app has stopped working" and printed out 3 blank pages. Then he tried to print again, didn't get the message, and didn't get the blank paper. In fact, he didn't get anything.
    Of course, there is no information on the HP website. Any ideas on what could be the problem?
    Thanks

  • Mail app has stopped working after 10.9.4 update on July 4, 2014

    Mail is totally dead.  It does not connect to the internet.  Each of my email accounts has the exclamation triangle next to them.  No new peripherals or devices or USB connections were added after the update.  The system worked before the update, and the same system stopped working (Mail app so far) after the update.

    In your opinion Apple was doing a garbage job, when in fact it was Intego that trashed your Mac. That's all it is capable of doing.
    But now I have no virus protection.
    This is a common misconception. OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple. Ill-conceived "anti-virus" garbage convey no benefit and as you found out, can simply prevent your Mac from working as it is designed to work.
    Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
    Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
    Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
    Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
    Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
    Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
    Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
    Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
    Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
    Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
    Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
    Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
    Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
    Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
    Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
    If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
    Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
    The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
    OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
    Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
    If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
    Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
    Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
    Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

  • Q10 synching to my computer has stopped working -why

    can anyone suggest why something that was working has just suddenly stopped? Neither calendar nor contacts are now being applied to the Q10. My PC is a Dell machine running windows 7 and everthing was fine one day and then not the next day. Backing up the Q10 to the PC still seems to be working perfectly well. Hoping someone has some ideas?

    Did you make any changes to your computer the day before or on the day it stopped working, such as Windows updates, add a new program, delete a program, run a scan.
    What is your anti virus program, do you use any registry editors, or other security programs.
    Can you think of some other info that might help diagnose the issue. Which browser do you use as the Default.

  • Gmail app has stopped working in iOS 8

    I have been using the Gmail app on my current and previous iPhones for years. This morning, the app stopped working on my iPhone 5, which is running iOS 8.3.It will not connect to the network (I've tried several networks in different locations). I can't download, send, or search messages within the app.
    I have the phone set for manual fetching of email. I can fetch gmail messages using the Apple mail app intermittently, not consistently. I can consistently get the messages in Safari--new ones show up when i refresh the page.
    In Settings, under Mail, Contacts, Calendars, when I go to Gmail, I see EXCHANGE. Under that, next to Account, the correct gmail address is listed. When I tap the account, the next page shows the Server as m.google.com.. The password is correct.
    I would be grateful for any suggestions on how to get Gmail working properly again in the Gmail app, or at least in the Mail app. Thanks.

    For starters, have you made sure you don't have any app updates pending, as offered in the App Store updates tab?
    Since it appears you are using the default IMAP setup for Gmail, try completely deleting the account configuration in the phone and setting it up again from scratch. Your mail will be safe in Google's servers while you do this.

  • Help, My web app has stopped working.

    Hey guys, I got my N95 thru orange and i've had it for nearly two weeks now. The phone is great and until now I've had no trouble.
    I've been using the inbuilt web app to access Orange world (Oranges mobile site, football, tv, etc etc) and all of a sudden it's stopped working.
    I have contacted Orange and they have sent me a configuration message with the wap settings and they have also talked me through setting them up manually but it still hasn't worked. I also didn't think it was the settings that were at fault in the first place but they still talk you through it all anyway.
    What happens is when I click onto the web app, the menu disappears as though the phone is about to launch into the web app itself and then straight away it returns to the phone menu. It doesn't even attempt to connect to any service at all. Just straight back to the menu.
    I think maybe the app itself might be missing.
    Can anyone help me out
    Thanks

  • In the last few days the OneNote web app has stopped working, no diagnostic info, just does nothing.

    I have a M/S OneNote public file on SkyDrive. I can no longer access this from my PC, the OneNote web app appears not to work any longer. It worked fine for weeks. There is no diagnostic information, it just hangs. I can access the file from my iPad.

    I can access the file from M/S internet explorer on my PC.. So it looks like some problem between Firefox and the OneNote web app. The problem was there on FF25 it is still there on FF26

  • Elements Organizer 12 Has Stopped Working -- Why?

    The program opens fine. Then, while sitting idle the organizer keeps crashing..... Why?

    Two suggestions:  the first one is a workaround. You just have to drill down your program file tree to Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer and find the .exe file - the one specifically for Organizer, not Elements.  Make a shortcut to that file on your desktop and it will open Organizer. The second suggestion resolved the problem altogether for me. I actually called Dell and after working with several different techs over several different days, I talked to a tech in premium support who was excellent. I discovered from them that it is actually a problem with the windows system files. I have 8.1.  I went through a "refresh" on my computer which rebuilt all the files. Then reinstalled Adobe as well as my other programs again and Photoshop Elements Organizer works from the standard desktop shortcut.
