OSX 10.6.5 can't control my Canon iP8500

Since moving from Tiger to Snow Leopard on my new computer, my Canon iP8500 printer only half works. I can print, but I no longer have a Printer Setup Utility, no Printer Status reporting and cannot read the ink tanks. The files in Library>Printers>Canon>Utilities appear to be the same as on the old computer. There are two ij printer utility applications of 21.7 and 24.4 MB and a cij autosetuptool app but I don't know what these are for. The Canon website indicates there are no drivers to download for this printer. Can anyone suggest how to get the iP8500 to work properly?

In the printer/fax pane I find that my iP8500 is using Canon printer V. 10.30.3.0. This was probably the latest available for the installation disk for my computer.
Yes. The v10.30.3.0 driver was part of the OS X 10.6.4 update.
Following the links in your message it is clear that there is a newer V.10.36.2.0 as you say but what difference it makes is not stated.
The updates were primarily for adding more models to the supported list. There has also been some minor corrections, which have been documented on the Canon web site for the respective model.
However I still don't know what is the difference between V.10.36.2.0 and Canon's V. 4.8.3 which they recommended and I downloaded this morning. This is because I can't find a way of selecting between them to try 4.8.3. While Your suggestion that all the utility functions can be accessed through the Print/fax pane, I find it more convenient to keep the Printer Setup Utility in Dock and wouldn't want to give that facility up. Is it worthwhile upgrading to V.10.36.2.0 ? How can I select Canon V. 4.8.3. to test it?
The v4.8.3 driver is not meant for Snow Leopard. If it did manage to install then it would actually error when you try to print. And upgrading to v10.36 may not give any noticeable improvement over the current v10.30 driver.
As for the Dock, you could do the same thing with the print queue. Open Print & Fax, select the iP8500 and press the 'Open Print Queue' button. This will make the printer proxy for the iP8500 appear in the Dock and you will see from this pane that you have access to the ink supplies and the printer utility. And you can then Control-click on this icon and select Options > Keep In Dock.

Mac Pro OSX 10.10 can't control volume in iTunes with keyboard

I can't control volume in iTunes with keyboard

Yes nachit, I have the same problem.
I've noticed that when I switch between the output audio devices (i.e. Built in speaker to headphones), the volume control fails.
I've already opened a topic yesterday. At this time, no answer.

How can I control a mac mini connected to a benchmark dac 2 for the purpose of listening to 24/192 audio files?

How can I control a mac mini connected by USB to a Benchmark DAC 2 for the purpose of listening to 24/192 music downloads?

Hello,
About the dac 1, but may apply to the dac 2 as well in some ways...
Here are more details:
1) The current version of iTunes (7.5) for OSX is very broken. Some older versions work properly, but 7.5 introduces truncation and DSP artifacts that can measure as high as –80dBFS. These levels are easily audible. There is no system configuration that will permit transparent playback from 44.1kHz sources with iTunes 7.5. Curiously, the only format that works properly in 7.5 is 24-bit/96kHz. This iTunes problem has nothing to do with USB communications, as the results are the same when using the built-in optical port on our PowerBooks. As a workaround, we suggest using the free VLC for Mac player. VLC works perfectly with all formats (provided OSX is set to match the sample rate of the files being played). We highly recommend the VLC player for OSX users, and strongly advise against using iTunes. We will attempt to identify which versions of iTunes work and which ones don't. But beware, iTunes updates itself without user intervention. One of our test computers "upgraded" itself to the dysfunctional iTunes 7.5.
2) OSX still does not have the ability to follow sample-rate changes. We consider this a nuisance for most users and a show-stopper for users who want to play a mixed list of 44.1kHz and 96kHz material. An OSX sample-rate mismatch will invoke the very-poor-quality sample-rate conversion that is built into OSX. The iTunes 7.5 bug seems to be locking on this sample-rate conversion at all sample rates other than 96kHz. Until this is fixed, OSX is not the operating system of choice for audio playback.

How can i control my new mac mini using my new macbook air? Thanks

Hi, I would like to control and even file share my macmini using my macbook air... the mac mini is plugged into the family 50inch plasma... so getting access to it is not always easy! I'd like to play itunes, films, file share, just about do everything from the macbook air as if I was on and in front of the macmini... i'm hoping to do this from any country using wifi!
I've looked at screens - vnc client, but can;t find anywhere where it says I should download the app... is there a master to download to the mac mini, then waht do i download to the macbook air to enjoy control... also am i expected to download twice and pay twice?
I'm very new to the mac world... loving it, but lots to learn! Appreciate your help, thank you
Chris
PS... bonus if I can also control the mac mini using my iphone4 and ipad 2 (yup, my bank balance took a major hit.... apple certainly got me hooked!)

Sceen sharing is built into the OS go to your help in the finder and type in "screen sharing"
To set up screen sharing: (on the mini)
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Sharing.
Select the Screen Sharing checkbox.
To specify who can share your screen, select one of the following:
All users: Select this if you want to allow any user with a user account on your computer to share your screen.
Only these users: Select this if you want to restrict screen sharing to specific users.Click Add at the bottom of the Users list and select a user from Users & Groups (accounts you have set up in Accounts preferences), Network Users (users on your network), or your Address Book. Or click New Person and enter a name and password to create a sharing account. Then select that user from the list and click Select.
Click Computer Settings and set the following options:
Anyone may request permission to control screen: Select this to allow anyone on your network to request to share your screen.
VNC viewers may control screen with password: Select this and enter a password that VNC viewer applications can enter in order to control your screen.
It’s recommended that you not set a password if you only share this computer’s screen using the built-in screen sharing viewer in Mac OS X.

Can not control the color in JOGL

I am a beginner to use JOGL.
I find that I can not control the color, both background and foreground. The background is always Black, and foreground is always Red.
I use canvas.setBackground(Color),
gl.glColor3*(), trying to change the color. But it does not work.
What is the problem?
Thanks.
Toby

A big help for learning JOGL is reading the Red Book from OpenGL, which can be downloaded in pdf. Since JOGL is almost a direct wrapper, the function calls are identical.
To set the background color, you need to add a GLEventListener to the GLCanvas that you're using. To set the background color, in your init() method for GLEventListener do:
public void init(GLAutoDrawable glad) {
GL gl=glad.getGL();
gl.glClearColor(r,g,b);
or something similar, I'm not on my normal computer so this was all from memory. Check the JOGL API for the exact method name for glClearColor. To change the foreground color, there are a bunch of various methods that are all similar to glColor3f(float r,float g,float b).
Calling this on the GL object in the display() method will set the foreground color and everything drawn that isn't using lighting will use this color.

Can we control if text in a page is converted, or not, to an image?

Hello!
My experience tells me that if I use iWeb 1.0.1 and I put the text color with 80% opacity, for example, all text will be converted to an image. Most of the times I like this behavior, because the result is the same on every computer or browser.
But after I update for iWeb 1.1.1 all text appears as text and no longer as images. Now, when I want some sites with the text converted to images I still use the older version (1.0.1).
My question is: Can we control if text is converted, or not, to an image? Can we force a particular text box to be converted to an image, after 1.0.1?
I search the iWeb forum and I have not find any answer for this particular question.
Sorry for my english...
Thanks!
Power Mac G4 - 867MHz Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Now answering newmacguru...
1. Why I want text to appear as an image?
Sometimes the graphical result is important. Most of the times, if you use a white or bright page background, what you see in iWeb is almost the same you see when browsing the page. No problem! But if the page background is black or dark, what you see when browsing the page can be different from what you see when developing the page with iWeb. And these differences can be important... Now if you tell iWeb to convert text to images, the result will be exactly the same you see in iWeb (the result you want).
Let me show you an example. This page was published with iWeb 1.0.1. In this case all text boxes were converted to images and the result you see is exactly what I want. Normally I choose opacity of 80% in the text color to reduce the contrast between text and background (this is the graphical result I most like):
http://clientes.netvisao.pt/3ebt2006/iweb/TesteTexto101/
Now if you publish the page with iWeb 1.1.1/1.1.2 the result is the same for both, but different from the pages obtained with iWeb 1.0.1. I only get the result I want if the text is converted to an image (using shadow). You can also see that with a white background you get good results even if the text remains text:
http://clientes.netvisao.pt/3ebt2006/iweb/TesteTexto111/
http://clientes.netvisao.pt/3ebt2006/iweb/TesteTexto112/
Thanks for the suggestion of the shadow. Sometimes using a non web safe font is not a solution, remember I want “that” graphical result...
2. Now, considering the search engines, I think I read in this forum that the search engines can do is work, even if text is converted to images, because the text still remains in the page (sorry I don’t remember where).

When connected to my Ford Mondeo, my ipod nano can be controlled through interface. But after while it comes up with message 'loading data' and then freezes. Anyone else got the issue?

When connected to my new Ford Mondeo, my ipod nano can be controlled through user interface in car. This worksd most of the time, but after a while if I try to change the music or search, it comes up with message 'Loading Data'. I then have to pull out USB and reinseert, at which point it works again. Has anyone esle expereinced this/have a solution?

Does not matter if anyone else has this issue. You need to contact the Ford dealership. It's their product you are having problems with.
If you really want to know if anyone else has this issue, post on Ford's Mondeo message boards. It's where the Ford car owners hang out.

How can I control selection on a PDF

I have Acrobat Pro 9 Pro build 9.4.6 and am constantly exporting documents from indesign to .pdf, and also building docs in the 'combine' feature from mixed pages.
While everything seems to go reasonably well, I have a few problems that are due either to my ignorance, or bugs.
1. The biggie; How can I control what I select, for the purpose of copying, moving and deleting? When I drag the touch-up object tool over my selection, it selects what it wants to most of the time; sometimes it selects (i.e., puts a light blue box around) the entire page, instead of my selection (no pages are scanned). There are very few instances when I get exactly what I want; there are usually a few lines above or below, no matter how careful I am in my selection. The funny thing is that this is not a constant; sometimes, the tool works perfectly! and I have my heart in my mouth every time I really need it to work, hoping that it will not force me to go back to Indesign to make minor corrections. Perhaps my problems are connected to options I select when exporting my indds, but I've tried checking, clearing, and selecting various combinations and nothing seems to work.
Sometimes, the text selection tool is strange; a wide blue swath develops over the selected text, even though it is still usually possible to edit the text in this condition. And BTW, is there anything to do about the fact that some text can't be edited at all because a suitable font replacement can't be found? Can't a font be added somehow that will take care of this?
2. Headers and Footers; fairly effortless, but if the footer contains two rows and I want them centered, the second row looks centered in the preview but not in the doc. I have to go back to the footer dialog and guesstimate how many spaces to place before the second row to get it to look centered. Also, is there any way to place a logo in a header? That would be one of my requests for the next version of Acrobat, if not.
3.Hyperlinks; they don't always work,even though I check Hyperlinks in the Export settings. Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
4. Typwriter toolbar; it also seems to offer font and size changes whenever it feels like it, and I've tried all different orders of typing, selecting, etc.

It's me again, sorry! I wanted to save what I'd written, and my message popped up to the board.
Thank you for any advice anyone has!
PS My indd and acrobat are the same version, as they came in the same package (CS4). Windows XP sp3.
Oh, one more thing I just remembered, as long as I'm complaining; sometimes if I place an object (the logo) and copy it to another page, it disappears on the original page, as if I've cut it. Any fix for that? (strange how I can edit tmy 'reply' but not my original post...well, at least I found where to ask a question fairly quickly!)

How can I control the zoom on my mac mouse?

How can I control the zoom function on my mouse? In the middle of working on things my hand will rub the mouse by accident and all of a sudden the context within the screen is large. I have no idea of how to work this feature on my mouse and most times to get it to return to normal, I have to escape out of the work I am performing.

If you are pressing the "Control" button on the Mac keyboard, scrolling up will zoom in and scrolling down will zoom out. You can disable this if it annoys you through System Preferences > Universal Access. If you are using Mountain Lion, it would be System Preferences > Accessibility.
Uncheck the in the "Seeing" or "Zoom" section that says "Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom". It may be slightly different if you have an older OS X version. I have Mountain Lion and am going off of memory on the older versions.

How can I control a button from one swf file to another swf file?

Hi,
I have a main.swf file. From that file I am accessing the external.swf file which is an external file.
Now, how can I write code on my main.swf file for the button which is on my external.swf file?
Activities.MainPanel.close_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClickClose);
Activities.MainPanel.close_btn (This buttons is actually on external.swf file, but I want to write code on main.swf file to execute it on external.swf) how can I control one swf button on other swf file?
Thanks.

Here's some example code that you should be able to adapt to your needs.
// create a new loader object instance...
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
// make the download request...
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("external.swf");
// add a complete event listener to the loader
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
// start the actual loading process...
loader.load(request);
// create a new empty movieClip instance, you will put the loaded movie into this movieClip once its loaded
var externalMovie:MovieClip;
// this function is called when the download has finished and the file is ready to use...
function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
   // set the contents of the loaded movie to the new empty movieClip...
           externalMovie = MovieClip(event.target.content);
   // add this new movie to the display list...
   addChild(externalMovie);
Now you can refer to the loaded movie with the instance name "externalMovie". So if, for instance, you want to address a button in the loaded movie, you could write something like this on the main timeline:
externalMovie.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClickClose);
function btnClickClose(event:MouseEvent):void {

How can i control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?

Sup buddies,
How can I control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?
As the project grows in size the load time increases. How does one control not loading all images ,divs,elements etc. until they're
needed on the timeline? For example some sections are off and only become visible when recalled. My projects slowly grow in size so loading
all images , is counter productive . My other option would be to create separate htmls but that breaks the seamless user experience .

hello, kiwi
quote: "Is there an easy way to burn a completed project to DVD, but keep only the (lo res, lo size) previews on my hard drive?"
yes.
maybe,...
1. you might think of making DVD backups first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
or,
2. bring in the photographs to hard drive first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
the low rez Previews will stay in Aperture but the high quality Versions will be exported onto DVDs and gone from the hard drive (if you delete the originals).
another way would be to export small about 50-70 pixel wide high quality jpegs to a folder on your Desktop and import & keep these in Aperture Library as a reference. make metadata to show where the original Project DVDs are stored and DVD filing system used.
