OS X 10.6.7 Canon All-in-One 480 Printer will not print files, only blank pages. Have to go to Utilities, Disk Utility  and Repair permissions for a temporary fix. How can I get a permanent fix?

After upgrading to OS X 10.6.7., my Canon All-in One MP 480 printer will not print. it says it is printing, but the sheet of paper just runs through the printer and comes out blank. I finally went online to just answers.com and got a fix involving the System preferences, printer and fax. i was told to go to Applications in the HD, thenUtilities, then Disk Utilities, highlight the HD and check on Verify Disk. If it says Disk is OK, click on Repair Permissions. At first, that worked, but the next time I went to print after turning the printer off, it refused to print and just ran the sheet of paper through blank. Once that happens, there is no way to go back to printing the file that failed. I fiinally had to copy and paste the info from the file that would not print and put it in an email to myself and then print that. This is very frustrating, and I would really like a final solution for the problem.

There's a lot there, so I'll start with the parts I can answer quickly.
The "ACL found but not expected..." messages can be safely ignored, so says this article
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306925
(look below all the "SUID" examples)
I had changed my Desktop image earlier but when the "Installing 1 item" window came up it changed back to the back ground that you first see on your desktop after installation.
Leopard installs updates a bit differently. If it's simply an application that does not change system files, it installs them like before, without having to restart. If the update is to the system, then you must immediately "restart," It then goes to that stars and purple screen to perform the installation. Before, it would do the installation while you still had control of the Mac and would prompt you to restart when it finished the installation. This change probably make things more secure and reliable, because you aren't allowed to do other things on the Mac while system updates are being installed.
Please post back with the remaining point of concern.

  • I was asked if I wanted to store a password and said no. I would like to change my mind and store password for that site. How can I get Firefox to ask again?

    Brand-new MacBook Pro running Lion OS (10.7.1)

    Hi cor-el -
    Thanks for directing me to the Mozilla help pages for passwords. I had already done that to no avail.
    I had deleted the particular saved password from my Saved Passwords list (because it didn't include my username), and I now want to add it, but FF won't offer a second chance to save.
    The password is not in my Saved Passwords list nor is it listed in the Exceptions.
    (I'm running on a brand-new MacBookPro with OS Lion 10.7.1.)
    I found the following and tried it, but it didn't work:
    • delete site from bookmarks
    • clear history when FF closes in prefs
    • quit FF
    • restart FF
    • uncheck clear history when FF closes in prefs
    I still can't seem to make FF offer me a second chance to save a password for a particular site.
    Any help is appreciated.

  • Hp photosmart all-in-one c 7280 will not print since clearing paper jam

    Had my first paper jam in 2 1/2 years - cleared out the paper but now when trying to print documents they just back up and a check-mark appears by the default printer beside the word "error".   I right click on the printer icon; cancel the backed up documents and the word beside the check-mark changes to "Off-line".   I set the printer to On-line and the word beside the check-mark changes to  "Ready".  
    I then send another document for printing with the above scenario repeating itself.
    I can make copies so am pretty sure the paper jam is cleared.  There's just no response to the Print command.
    Will appreciate any help - john t

  • My HP L7780 all-in-one officejet pro will not print when inserting an original on the screen.

    When I insert an original document on the copy screen, an error msg appears "original loaded" please re-load and try again. The printer functions properly from the auto feed and from computer commands. How do I remove "Original Loaded"  from the printer screen so it operates correctly?

  • HT1203 Can I share one iTunes account for my iPad and two I phones? If so, how can I get the purchased apps and music on all three devices? Do I need a home computer,

    Can I share one iTunes account for my iPad and two I phones? If so, how can I get the purchased apps and music on all three devices? How do I sync all the devices to have the same music and apps?

    You can set up an iCloud account on each one (the SAME iCloud account using the same AppleID on each) and then sync via iCloud.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262\
    However, an iCloud backup nor sync contains purchased content - that is available for redownload from the iTunes and App stores (so no need to waste iCloud space storing it for you).
    So, for purchased content, you will have to download it on each device - just use the same AppleID and download each item on each device.
    Without a computer to aid the sync'ing, downloading the purchased content on each device is the only way.
    P.S  audiobooks cannot be re-downloaded once purchased (all other content can be), so without a computer to save, store and move the audiobook files around, you will only be able to put those on one device - the one you first purchase it on.

    You did install the latest iTunes (10.5) right?  If the problem was that iTunes does not see the iPod try:

    Everything should be on your computer.
    You should be syncing contacts and calendars with your comptuer regularly.
    You should be transferring all itunes purchases to your computer regularly.
    You should be importing all pics taken with iphone to your computer regularly.
    Most especially before any update.
    Have you failed to do this?

    Mail application is still there. All of my emails and folders are gone since iCloud. How can I get them back using Snow Leopard? Or can I? Do I have to wait for Mountain Lion?

    I need to check a few other things...
    Click on 'Mail' in the upper left corner next to the Apple ()
    Click Preferences
    Click the 'Accounts' tab
    Make sure your iCloud account is highlighted in the column on the left.
    In the account information section what does it say next to:
    Incoming Mail Server?
    Outgoing Mail Server?
    Also, did you use MobileMe before the iCloud?

    What version of Pages are you referring to?
    Basically if you are talking about the Table of Contents in Pages and want to have different character styles within paragraphs in the T.O.C. you will have to export the T.O.C. and bring it back in as text and change that.

    Unless you subscribe to iTunes Match , Apple does not keep a backup of your iTunes library.  Even then it is not the library as it exists on your computer, but some version of the media, and only media files, not playlists.  Even then not all media are definitely available since anything removed from the iTunes Store since you purchased it is not available for re-download.
    FAQ: Why iTunes Match Can Not Be Used as a Backup - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112
    Using Match as a backup for iTunes - https://discussions.apple.com/message/17039436#17039436
    In your case it sounds like you will have to obtain non iTunes purchases from their original source or a backup you may have made at some time in the past.

  • When I select a title in the iTunes Store and click on Play in iTunes I am sent to the download page for iTunes 10 which I have already. The selected title cannot be found anywhere in my iTunes. How can I get the title in iTunes with possibility to buy it

    When I select a title in the iTunes Store and click on Play in iTunes I am sent to the download page for iTunes 10 which I have already. The selected title cannot be found anywhere in my iTunes. How can I get the title in iTunes with possibility to buy it?

    The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside in order to purchase iTunes content.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching the billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations, although it’s worth nothing that features like iTunes in the CLoud and iTunes Match are designed to work best when using a single iTunes Store account, as you can only switch accounts with these services every 90 days."

    Oh nice, there's a PassKeeper application for the iPhone and iPad.  Simply install it and it should talk you through steps, otherwise their website is probably a great place to check.
