Non Classic replacement for Apple Printer Utility?

Hi,
I have a MacBook Pro which wont run Classic and some clients with Apple printers (LaserWriter II, LaserWriter 8500, etc.).
Previously with my PowerBook I could use the Apple Printer Utility (OS 9.x application) to configure these printers (change IP addresses, etc.). Now because the MacBook Pro wont run this app I have to carry the PowerBook around to do it.
Does anyone now of a PowerPC (or even better yet Universal Binary) utility that will do the same thing?

Hi Stephen,
I don't have a 16/640 but have read help docs on Apple Support. You should be able to access the printer via the telnet command in the OS X Terminal (maybe not the elegant answer you wanted!). There will be help by typing ? or help (I'm guessing).
telnet {IP address of printer}
Let us know.

Apple Printer Utility for Mac OSX?

I have a wonderful Apple LaserWriter 12/640PS printer that works and works and works. But in order to get a lot of information and to print a start-up page with the number of total sheets printed, I need to use APPLE PRINTER UTILITY 2.2 in CLASSIC (OS 9.2.2)--
Does anyone know if there is a way to get the utility functions of APPLE PRINTER UTILITY 2.2 in Mac OS X-- I'm currently running 10.3.9 on my PBG4 and Tiger 10.4.3 on my G4-733. Thanks!

When will apple begin to use non us banks for apple pay?

when will apple begin to use non us banks for apple pay?

Apple have not announced any dates for non-US rollout of Apple Pay as yet. They have to negotiate agreements with local banks and local branches of credit card companies in multiple countries, ensure they are in compliance with local laws and many other things before this can happen. It is going to take months at the very least I'd guess before you will see it even in major EU countries and longer for places like Asia and the Middle East. It will probably be rolled out in stages over the next year or two (or more) until most of the world has Apple Pay available.
It took 2+ years after its US debut for iTunes Music Store to spread to many other nations, and the video store was about 12-18 months plus as I recall. Apple Pay probably makes those negotiations look simple in comparison.

How can I unclog the printhead of a Pro 9500 printer? It's too clogged for the printer utility.

Hi,
How can I unclog the printhead on a Pro 9500 printer? The printer utility cannot do it. It's too clogged for that and just uses up the ink without unclogging it. I tried the "Magic Inkjet Flush" but that didn't completely clear it. I wasted a lot of ink in the process. I'm thinking of just taking the printhead out and somehow soak it in an ammonia solution. Is there a way of doing this and will it work?
Thanks,
Bill

Hello artjewel.
Unfortunately, we cannot recommend that any parts are physically cleaned. We can only recommend that the Cleaning and Deep Cleaning options in the printer maintenance section are used.
If the quality issues persist once these cleanings have been done, please contact our support group using the link below for additional assistance.

OA2: Soft Proofing Profile for Apple Print

Hi,
Does anyone know what Soft Proofing Profile to use the Aperture 2 "built-in" Print & Book Services? Or perhaps where to get it?
Thanks

Hi
This has cropped up a few times before, the general opinion seems to be to use Average McCoy Gloss for proofing Apples print services.
Check out this link : http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=9295427&messageID=6190046
for more info, David is still holding a copy of the profile at the link provided in the thread.

Part replacement for Apple Wireless bluetooth mouse ( not mighty)

I am looking for a bottom panel for my old apple wireless bluetooth mouse (not mighty). My son has dropped it down and that is how is not switching off anymore. I am thinking about replacement of that anyway removable panel (you remove it to place batteries),so I guess this part must be around somewhere. Any help is appreciated, thank you very much in advance!

Hello m:
The only people that can answer that are the Apple people. As far as I know, those parts are not available from the web site.
Frankly, I think I would buy a new mouse as something may be damaged internally.

Replacement for 'Apple Notes'?

Hi all I've been using Apple's built-in 'Notes' app on Mavericks as well as my iPod Touch and I love it because it's easy and fast for me to create notes that I can look at later. However, I just bought an Android tablet and iCloud isn't available for it.
Also, I'm wanting to begin using a cloud photo sharing service/app so that I can look at my photos on all of my devices: an iPod Touch, Mac, Windows and Android tablet.
What can people recommend?

Replacement for Apple Cinema Tools to batch conform for overcrank?

Apologies if I am asking this question in the wrong forum. And If I am, perhaps you could refer me to the right place,.
I use it to batch conform 60 fps (shot on my 7D) to other frame rates (30, 24 etc) to achieve smooth slow motion.
I know that there are ways to conform clips one-at-a-time in After Effects.
But I am seeking a simple one-step batch conform tool that will convert like Cinema Tools.
I also tried Red-Giant grinder, however it does not recognise the files coming out of my GoPro Hereo 3+.
Is there a way to do this with Adobe's products?
Thanks.

This forum is for supporting people who have issues downloading and installing Adobe software. It sounds like you are looking for help with an application, and since you mention After Effects, maybe that would be a better place to start. After Effects

Photobook Cancelled by Apple Printer

I just discovered that my photobooks I give every year for Christmas has been cancelled. I sent the books in on December 13, before the Christmas cut off date. They were cancelled because they had too many orders to to send out by the delivery date so they cancelled them They are offering a 15% discount.
I only discovered it because I logged into my account to see if they had shipped. You might want to check your orders.

Nancy N, I just got the small month names email too (evening of December 18! Ha!).
There is a phone number for Apple Print Services?
The phone number I called was 800-676-2775, which is the Apple Store Customer Service number. Initially I spoke to a customer service adviser, who contacted someone in Print Services. They couldn't identify a problem or even knew what the "small month names" error was. Eventually they tossed me over to someone in iPhoto tech support and finally after I'd had enough (the call lasted 90 minutes) they transferred me back to a supervisor in Print Services.
The supervisor reviewed the calendar page by page and claimed that he had found the problem...that one of the "mini months" (where the prior and next months appear at the bottom of the page) had a font size about four times too large and it was cut off. The problem is, I'd saved the PDF preview of my upload and that preview looked perfectly normal. We guessed that something had gone amiss during the upload, even though I'd received no upload errors. The Print Services supervisor stayed on the line while I re-uploaded the calendar a second time without making a single change. He then reviewed it once it was received and this time, everything appeared normal. Because I'd expressed disappointment that I wouldn't have this by Christmas, they knocked 50% off the price and expedited the shipping. I doubt it will arrive by Christmas, but at least I know what the problem was and that I wasn't crazy and had done everything correctly. Any potential "fixes" suggested here and in other threads about switching themes back and forth would have had no effect on this issue.

Palm Desktop replacement for Mac and iPhone?

Since Palm Desktop is no longer in active development, is there a Palm Desktop replacement for Mac and iPhone?
http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/33219_en.html#mac
I mean, a single application (not a bunch of them like Address Book, iCal etc) that works on Mac (desktop) and that can sync with the iPhone. Including all data from the current Palm Desktop:
1. Address List
2. To Do List
3. Memo List
4. Date Book
Thanks.

If only Apple did something like that (all-in-one-application personal organizer with contacts, memos, calendar, to do lists, etc)
Well, they offer all those functions--Mail has Notes and To-dos show up in both Mail and iCal, plus Address Book. Clearly someone made the fundamental decision that separate integrated programs were better than an all-in-one, so I wouldn't expect an all-in-one from Apple in any foreseeable future. But you can send a feature request, if you like:
http://apple.com/feedback
What would be interesting---and may exist, I haven't looked---would be if a third-party used the open access to iCal/Address Book info to build an all-in-one that integrated with Apple's separate apps, which could provide seamless iPhone/OS X integration while still letting people have the unified interface. Postbox uses Address Book but I didn't see any calendar/notes features in my quick check. Lots of apps build better replacements for Apple's individual programs--BusyCal, I think a Mail replacement, etc---but nothing unified that I've heard of.
However, my point was that you may be better off grabbing Entourage 2008 while it is still available than waiting for Outlook 2011, which is going to be a different program. Sometimes features go backwards, and Missing Sync compatibility may change or be delayed with Outlook 2011. I don't see the advantage of hanging onto PD until the very last minute.

HT2250 I have an Apple network utility that with the previous printer (Canon PIXMA iP 5000) found the printer on the Network for use on a wi fi system but a newish printer (Canon MG6150) does not show up as Bonjour. Is that correct?

BJ Printer Utility needs Classic stopped

I have a Canon i450 printer connected to my iBook G4 via USB. When I use the BJ Printer Utility to perform maintenance tasks like checking/resetting the ink level, cleaning heads, or changing printer settings, it usually doesn't work when Classic is running. It pops up:
Error Number: 19
Utility function cannot be used because the printer is performing processing. Make sure the printer has finished the processing, and try again.
I usually leave Classic running in the background all the time, so it's annoying having to shut it down just for this. Is there some setting in Classic I can change so that it won't interfere?
Ibook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

If the printer requires OS X 10.3.9, there is no driver available to run it natively in OS 9 or in Classic mode in OS X. To print from a Classic application in OS X, there must be an OS 9 driver for the printer, and yours has none. The best you will be able to do, as far as printing from your Classic apps is concerned, is save the files they create in a file format that one of your OS X-native applications can open, and print them from that application.
Preview can open native Photoshop files, JPEGs, PICTs and TIFFs, so you can save images from Photoshop in any of those formats and be able to print them from Preview. If your Quark files can be saved as PDFs or EPS files, Preview can open those, too.

After using my iPod classic in my infinity G35 a few weeks ago, I took it out of the car and it no longer works. Just a white screen with the web address for Apple iPod support. Worked fine when hooked up to iPod jack in car. But wont work anywhere now

After using my iPod classic in my infinity G35 a for the last few weeks, I took it out of the car and it no longer works. Just a white screen with the web address for Apple iPod support. Worked fine when hooked up to iPod jack in car. But won't work anywhere now. I tried re-setting but has not worked. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!

IJ Canon Printer Utility disappeared after I replaced ink cartridges.

I just replaced the ink cartridges with ones I ordered from eforcity and it prints fine, but I haven't been able to locate the printer utility box ever since which means I haven't been able to check ink levels and clean the nozzles. This is really frustrating because I need to clean the print nozzles now. Every line on my printouts is streaking (half dark / half faded). Help! Thanks.
