Page Setup Never works

I often like to print out my code when working in Flash 8,
Mac OS X. I set the page setup for portrait, but it never
matters...it always prints landscape. I know how to set my printer
and app settings (I do it every day for years).
Is this a known bug with Flash?
Thanks for any light shed on this.

I just tried printing in portrait here on a PC and it worked
fine. However, some lines that were too long got cut off instead fo
word-wrapping. You might try:
- Using a different printer
- Printing from a different mac with a different printer.
- Printing from a PC
Those aren't long term solutions, but will give you a better
idea what is the problem. If it still prints landscape on another
mac with a different printer, but prints fine on a PC as mine did,
I'd guess it was a bug in the mac version of flash or how printers
communicate with flash on a mac. If it works fine on a differnt mac
with a different printer, then it's either your printer or how you
have it set up.

Unable to open Page Setup in CR11 in Design view

Hello,
I am using crystal reports professional v11.0.0.1994. I am unable to open the Page setup from the File menu in this report. The Page setup function works for my other reports, just not this one. I do not want to have to recreate this report as it is complicated (for me!). I have tried saving the report as a different name. I am having trouble printing this report in our Terminal Server environment and need to be make sure the no print option is turned off.
Thanks for any assistance

Hi Graham,
We were having issues with the report in a third party application. TS - users were not able to print at all - as if the no printers check box was ticked. (users could not see any printers)
I was trying to correct this through the design opening the report on my local pc where I have Crystal Reports installed. I could sucessfully open the report, but when I clicked on File Page setup nothing happened. It was as if I hadn't clicked on the function at all.
I then opened the report in Crystal Reports installed on a server (same version) but had the same problem.
I sent the report to someone outside the organisation with the same version of crystal reports and they were able to open the Page setup and turn off the No Printers check box.
When the report came back I was able to open Page Setup.
I was trying to find out what could cause the software to ignore the page setup command in case this happened again.
Thanks Carolynne

Page Setup dialog doesn't work

Hi everyone
My generic Page Setup dialog box as e.g. used for Word etc. doesn't work:
In the Page Setup dialog, the "Setting" menu doesn't work at all, i.e. I can see the dropdown but it doesn't accept my changes (it's fixed on "Page Settings"). All other menus or choices are accepted but then the "OK" button doesn't work; it just flickers briefly and then goes back to blue. The "Cancel" button makes all contents of the dialog box disappear except for the frame and the buttons. Either way force quitting and relaunching the application is the only way to continue working in the application.
What could be the issue here?
A few specs on my hardware, printer and system:
- MacBook Pro (brand new)
- OS X 10.5.5
- Printers: hp LaserJet 4200 (main printer), iP5200R, OKI B6200, Lexmark E321. All these printers I used without problems with my old PowerBook G4.
The problem occurs with all applications using this generic Page Setup dialog, such as Word, Grab etc. In Excel e.g. all these functions work (it uses a different kind of dialog box for the page setup).
The problem could possibly have started to occur when the Lexmark printer could not be installed automatically so I assigned it another Lexmark driver, which seemed to work. But I'm not sure whether those two problems occurred at the same time.
What I tried already:
- uninstall and reinstall all printers in the Print & Fax part of the System Preferences. I uninstalled all printers and (without restart) reinstalled the hp printer only. The problem was still there, even upon restart.
- reinstall Word (first I thought it was a Word problem)
Any ideas??

Hi,
Try to increase the size of repeating frame, as I follow this strategy in my report find the outermost repeating frame and increase its size to whole page than increase the size of your required repeating frame if you want to break page on this group, no need to set max record and page break properties(as I saw page break property never works).
Thanks.

I have updated firefox SEVERAL times over the last few months and it never works. The download and setup goes fine, but I still get messages wherever I go that the version I have in not compatible and I have to upgrade. What gives???

Updated firefox SEVERAL times in the last few months and even though everything goes ok with the installation, it never upgrades! I get notices on my college website as well as other that I have an incompatible version and have to upgrade, BUT OT NEVER WORKS!!!

In the "More system details..." for your post, it shows an ancient version:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.17) Gecko/2009122116 '''Firefox/3.0.17''' (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) FBSMTWB
It could have something to do with that acronym at the end, which I think is associated with one of your add-ons.
To see your true current version, you can check Help > About Firefox.
If your true current version is 6.0.2 (today's version), then you may need to clear a setting using the about:config preference editor. Here's how:
(1) Type or paste '''about:config''' into the location bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful if it appears.
(2) Type '''agent''' into the filter box and wait for the list to be filtered.
(3) Right-click '''general.useragent.override''' and choose Reset to return that preference to its default value.
Any luck?

Printers do not show up in Page Setup Format for menu

Hello. I just installed Acrobat 9 Professional. Upgrade from AP7. For some reason, when I go to select the printer in the Page Setup> Format For> dropdown menu, the printers do not show up. When I try to make a pre-set for this printer it never works and always defaults back to Language Level 3, which gives me a postscript error when I try to print. It prints fine at Language Level 2 but I can't get the setting to stay. Any clues???
thank you in advance,
Randy

Geraldine,
There are some oddities in Pages' methods.
What you did was save the changed template which had been altered on the page but you also needed to "capture" and save the Layout or Section over the existing one in the document using the same name to replace it.
I will walk you through making your own version of a template.
1 Open a new document using the template you wish to customise.
2 Don't change anything yet, but open every section from the Sections pull down menu so you have a sequence of pages each with a page of a different section design.
3 Make Master Objects selectable if they are not.  Change each Section to your liking.
4 +Menu > View > Page Thumbnails+
5 Select first Thumbnail in sidebar  +Menu > Format > Advanced > Capture Pages… > Name : Type exactly the same name as the section > It will ask you if you want to replace the existing section > Replace+
6 Repeat this for each section until you have replaced them all.
7 +Menu > File > Save as Template… > Save with a New Name+
8 +Menu > File > New from Templates > My Templates > Choose your New Name template+
You now have a document customised to your design.

Unable To Print or Access Page Setup in Crystal Reports 2008

I have Win 7 32 bit, and installed Crystal Reports 2008 last week (v12.0.0.683 from the Help window).
Every time I open a report, and from the Preview tab clicking File -> Print, or File - > Page Setup, I immediately receive a Windows message that "Crystal Reports has stopped working". After a few seconds, another Windows message displays "Crystal Reports has stopped working - a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". Then Crystal completely closes.
I downloaded sample reports from the BO website, and still receive the error, so I don't think it's the report.
When I view the Event Log, I see the following:
Faulting application name: crw32.exe, version: 12.0.0.683, time stamp: 0x47c8be9a

I have uninstalled and reinstalled CR 2008 multiple times and continue to receive the same error. I tried updating to SP1 (Version 12.1.0.892 Incremental) but I receive the following error: "A BusinessObjects product at a lower patch level is detected. The installation cannot continue. Please update all installed products to the SP1 patch level, then restart this installation".
Need to print my reports - any ideas?

Sorry busy on Support cases and they take precedence over this community forum.
Very interesting....
In a test application I use I have this routine to get the local printers:
private void frmMain_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
     if (System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters.Count > 0)
          foreach(String myPrinter in System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters )
               cboCurrentPrinters.Items.Add(myPrinter);
          cboCurrentPrinters.SelectedIndex = 0;
     else
          rdoCurrent.Enabled = false;
          EnableDisableCurrentControls(false);
     //For printers exposed to System account as per MS Kbase
     //http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;184291
     //Look to HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Devices
     Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey mySystemPrinters =
          Microsoft.Win32.Registry.Users.OpenSubKey(@".DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Devices");
     foreach (String defaultPrinters in mySystemPrinters.GetValueNames())
          cboDefaultPrinters.Items.Add(defaultPrinters);
     if (cboDefaultPrinters.Items.Count > 0)
          cboDefaultPrinters.SelectedIndex = 0;
     else
          rdoDefault.Enabled = false;
Note the MS Kabse on where the printer registry is. Now the odd part is on one of my test development PC's it won't populate the Default User Printer list, only the Local User Printers. I take this same app to another PC and it works just fine. The register keys are there but for some reason on my Windows 7 64 bit it won't show them, the other strange part is I have full access to both keys. I have not been able to figure out why this happens...
I'm thinking this may be related to your issue.... But I don't have a solution, very strange... I've even gone into regedit32 and set full permissions on the various keys and it still doesn't work...
I have other VM-ware images if I need to get past that part for testing so I never drilled into why, I believe it has to be some Windows/Firewall/Anti-virus configuration or something our IT department pushed into my local Profile.... What that is I don't know unfortunately.
I'll do some looking and testing. You may want to post this on Microsoft forums as well.... Ask about printer permissions.
Thanks

Found cure for Acrobat 9 not able to select Printer in Page setup.

This may already be covered in another thread. In fact I used this as suggestion to cure another problem in another thread. That was related to editing files in Acrobat 9. It cures this problem I brought up on forum a week after I installed acrobat 9.
Every since I purchased by download Acrobat 9, I have been unable to slect a Printer in the Page setup. when clicking any printer your supposed to see a drop down list of all the print Drivers you have installed. I got
nothing.
I downloaded and installed Reader 9.0. Low and behold I am now able to select the desired printer. in Reader 9
and Acrobat 9.
So anyone having these issues. download and install Reader even if you never use it. The installer evidently inserts some code they forgot to put in Acrobat 9.

Well, come to find out. It works on my G4-500 as stated on my OSX.4.11 Drive. But I updated on my Firewire drive and still have same issue with Acrobat. But Reader I am able to set printer.
On my PowerBook 17 G4-1.67Gb Laptop neither works I don't know what to do. adobe is no help.

"Rows to repeat at top", in Page Setup/Sheet disabled in Excel 2010

I have read all of the postings on this question. I am having the same problem! However I do not see any solution. I see a lot of "I think's", or "try this'", but no clear cut-solution. Let me restate;
I am running Excel 2010 in Office Professional:
I want to print a long spread sheet and I would like the title row repeated on the top of each page. I specify the print area range. The first row is frozen, so that when I scroll through my work on screen, I can differentiate the column information by having
the first row frozen. I want this to happen when I print this long document.
I go to print and go to Page Setup. I select the "Sheet" tab. The Print address bar area is disabled (grayed), but my print range is there. Under "Print" Titles", both selections are disabled (grayed); "Rows to Repeat at Top" and Columns to Repeat at Left"
are unavailable for selection. The address selection button on the right, of each of these three address range bars are also disabled (grayed).
This worksheet is on my hard drive. It is the only worksheet in the file. When I click on the worksheet tab, it does not say "Ungroup Sheets" which means that sheets have never been grouped.
I have been using Excel since Excel 95. I have done this many times in past versions, and it is a relatively simple procedure. Does any know why I can not access this feature in Excel 2010?

Here we are 15 months later and Microsoft Excel 2013 has the SAME ERROR
If one chooses:
Print Preview
Page Setup
Sheet
Then the print area and print titles (Rows to repeat at top, columns to repeat at top)
are all grayed out and cannot be selected.
If, however, I choose the
page layout bar and click print titles then
everything works fine.
Thanks for the solution!!!

Why am I being billed for equipment that never worked from the get go, and that your representatives admitted never connected to the computer on your end?

In September my husband and I were planning a cross country move and we thought that having a Jet Pack to go on line with while we were traveling would be a good idea. When we ordered it we told the representative that we did not need it until the 1st of Oct. as that was when we would be leaving. It arrived on our door on Sept 9th with the instructions to be sure and activate it within 2 weeks or we would lose the line. On the 19th we called in the activation and everything appeared fine. We hit the road on the 1st and Nothing, Na-Da, Zip, Zilch .... The equipment never worked from the get go! We called Verizon from the road on the 4th of Oct. to find out what was going on and the representative told us that the problem was with the computer on Verizon's end. We shut the equipment off for the rest of our trip and called for a refund on the 13th of Oct. We spoke to a representative named Juan, who again confirmed that it was Verizon's computer that had been the problem, and we were assured that all fee's associated with the Jet Pack would be waived as the equipment never worked in the 1st place. He told us all we needed to do was return the broken equipment and that he would send us a return label. We received the return label and sent the equipment back on the 22nd of Oct. On our next bill no credits of any kind had been applied? We promptly picked up the phone and called Verizon again, on Oct 31st, to find out what was going on? This time we spoke to Lou Ann. After about an hour and a half she finally managed to remove the fee's, or so we thought, and we hung up satisfied. On 11/5 our Nov. bill arrived again with no credits of any kind. We thought maybe the billing cycle hadn't had time to catch up with our most recent conversation so we called just to verify. This time we spoke to Moncheria. She did not understand what had happened and had to reenter the same refund that Lou Ann had earlier. Again another hour and a half on the phone. Today,11/28, we received our most recent bill and again no credits of any kind??? We picked up the phone and called again. This time we explained to Christian, (the above story), and she put us on the phone with her supervisor Carson. Carson proceeded to tell us that ALL of the previous representatives we had spoken to were wrong and that since we had not returned the equipment within 14 days of receiving it that we were beyond the limits of the refund policy, (which means we would have had to return it before we left on our trip), and the best she could do was offer us coupons for the future to offset THEIR mistake! No thank you I will keep my cash in my pocket!
1st of all we ordered it for the 1st of Oct. not for 9th of Sept.
Secondly we were told to be sure and activate it within 14 days or we would lose the line, never any mention of a refund time limit. (Who buys stuff anticipating an immediate refund?)
And 3d THE EQUIPMENT NEVER WORKED IN THE 1ST PLACE!!
Now Verizon is asking for $343.34 in fee's for something that never worked in the 1st place!! This is ridiculous and those fee's are defiantly under dispute! The way I see it trying to hold me to a contract that Verizon breached by sending out faulty equipment is just wrong!

ITunes says it needs to upgrade but the download never works. What's wrong?

One day I got on iTunes to put some music on my iPod Nano (one of the older versions), and always before when I plugged it in and came up and said it was plugged in, but then it didn't recognize it! This went on for several months, me never being able to put more music on my iPod.
Finally I got the newest Nano for my birthday and I figured it'd work, but the same problem is going on! I've had the brand new iPod for 3 months and it doesn't have ANY music on it!
It does come up and ask if I want to download a newer version of iTunes, that it needs that one to work right (version 8.2 something I think). I go to download it, it takes a while, and then comes up and says the download was unsuccessful, I've tried about 30 times, and it never works.
What is going on?

Instead of trying to update iTunes +from within iTunes+, go to Apple's page where you can download the iTunes 8.2.1 installation file -- save the file, don't run it direct from the download. Once downloaded to your computer, then run the installation file.
If that does not fix the problem, then remove the following software from your computer (you won't lose your music): iTunes, Quicktime, and something called "Apple Mobile Device Services". Once you remove those programs, then run the iTunes installer file (from above) again. That will install all three of these programs and should fix your problem.

Is it possible to have different tabs print with different page setups.

I would like to use specific page setup parameters (under the File menu) for printing from a particular web site, but those parameters do not work well for printing from other web sites. I would like to be able to specify different page setup parameters for each open tab. Is this possible?

That might be possible via a GreaseMonkey user script, by setting the '''@include''' address to a specific domain.
http://wiki.greasespot.net/User_script
This is an example of a script I found a few years ago to bypass a fault in Firefox when printing the Courier font.
<pre><nowiki>// ==UserScript==
// @name Fix Courier Bug
// @namespace http://userscripts.org
// @description Replaces "Courier" with "Courier New" font
// @author Dan
// @include *
// ==/UserScript==
var elementList = document.getElementsByTagName('*');
for (var i = elementList.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
var elementItem = elementList[i];
var ff = getComputedStyle(elementItem, '').fontFamily;
var oldff=ff;
ff = ff.replace('Courier New', '1234567890qwertyFONT');
ff = ff.replace('Courier', 'Courier New');
ff = ff.replace('1234567890qwertyFONT','Courier New');
elementItem.style.fontFamily = ff; </nowiki></pre>
Sorry, I can't help you with writing a script.

Page Setup And Orientation Seems Crazy to do Such Simple Task !

i am evaluating crystal reports 2008 , i'm having created a custom paper size width = 8 inch and height = 6 inches using windows forms in printers and faxes . but crystal report changes my report to landscape ??? i want to print it in portrait.
I have observed that when the width is greater than height it automatically changes to landscape mode ? why this extra smartness when we don't need it and the problem goes critical when printing labels, version CRYSTAL REPORTS 9 has perfect page setup setting ?
can any 1 help me to work around this issue, would be thankfull

I suspect you've created a standard report and are "using it" as a label report.
Go to File | New | Mailing Label Report | choose the fields and once the datasource, tables, fields are chosen you can then choose TYPE and size of label (Avery labels sizes/types are provided) and set up the gaps between the labels, page margines, etc.

Page Setup -- printing on tabloid pages

This simple problem in Acrobat X (10.1.0) is causing me to go back to Acrobat 9:
When I need to print to a tabloid-size page (my printer contains both sizes of paper), I cannot find "page setup" anywhere except in the print dialog box. When I click that button then the following message comes up:
"The Page Setup dialog box is provided by the operating system. To ensure that you can use the full print capabilities of Acrobat, please set all print options from the Application print dialog box. Do you want to continue?"
Oh yeah? Where IS the Application print dialog box? Isn't that what I was just in?
In Acrobat 9, if I wanted to change the printing paper size, I could go to File>Page Setup and change the size and IT WOULD REMAIN AT THAT SIZE UNTIL I CHANGED IT AGAIN.
But in Acrobat X, I must click this button EACH TIME I print to get a size other than the default [which is governed by my Mac's setting for Print/Fax (OS X, 10.5.8)].
Can someone tell me what I'm missing? It should be simple... (like it is in Acrobat 9).

After selecting Page Setup in the Print Dialog box (going through the warning), I then chose "Paper Size: Tabloid", and BEFORE I exited THAT page setup dialog box, I switched from "Settings: Page Attributes" to "Settings: Default". (Note that the "Settings: Default" attribute immediately bounced back to "Settings: Page Attributes".)
But it seems to work! The page size stays Tabloid (or A4 or whatever) until I change it again -- no matter whether I open a different document or quit Acrobat X and start it again.
It's not intuitive... and I was not having any success in finding an answer or a workaround.
So thank you so much for your response!
Hope that someone else having the same problem will find this thread.

PAGE SETUP LOST/CHANGED ON DUPLICATION

Using Pages '09 (v4.3) to produce a custom envelope for printing, discovered a problem of Page Setup info being lost/changed when you Duplicate a file or when trying to print from a template produced from that file.
I set up the file using Merge Fields for the recipients, working from a Master and using the File>Duplicate command to make a copy of the file for examining the output. Everything looked good in the Print Dialogue displays, and also when checking by, for example, Saving PDF to Preview. On running an actual test print, however, it came out a total mess; text on the envelope in the wrong place and the wrong orientation, totally unuseable.
On examination I found that the Master's Page Setup info had been changed in the duplication:
"Format for ....." changed from <My printer> to "Any Printer"
"Paper Size" changed from <My custom size & name> to "Other", although dimensions were retained
"Orientation" changed from Vertical/Portrait to Horizontal/Landscape
This happened each and every time I duplicated the file,and I learned to simply go in and change the Page Setup info before printing. Once happy with the design, I saved the last good Master off as a Template so I could call it up from My Templates for future use. Unfortunately, I quickly discovered that the same thing happens from there. Drag the vcards into the displayed file, set up the Mail Merge, and go to Print and all will look well but, once again, actual printouts will be messed up and, on examination, for the exact same reasons.
Page Setup is being messed up in a way that isn't visible on any of the visual displays before actually printing; there, all looks as you think it should and it appears that the printing should go well. The info actually being sent to the printer, however, is incorrect. So, there seem to be two errors here, both linked:
The Page Setup info is not being reflected in the images or icons showing what the printed output will look like, and
The output produced at the printer is not what is shown before you print.
I'm far from a Pages expert so I can't help but wonder: Is there some essential step I've been missing here? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Slight correction to the above: The corruption/change of the Page Setup information occurs as the template is selected, i.e, the new "Untitled.." window opens. If you go ahead and change the info back to what it should have been, what it was saved as when the template was created, then all works normally.
Same is true of the duplication: The setup info changes as soon as you dupe the file. The original will still have the correct info, but the copy now shows the same stale default values (terms used might not be appropriate).

Page Setup Changes For iCal / Epson R1800

Hi
I am trying to print from iCal - using custom A4 paper sizes so that I can hole-punch the paper in an appropriate place. My problem is that when I try to print from iCal, the Page Setup is set at 'Roll Paper'. I can't change that setting and when I try to print on my Epson R1800 A4 sheet-fed paper, it keeps on coming up with paper not loaded error - I'm assuming because it's looking for Roll Paper. I'm getting so worked up about this I fear for the safety of my printer !!!
Any help would be welcomed.

after you have changed the print setting in the .rpt itself and if you are still experiencing the same behaviour:
1) first, try to see if just the .rpt itself is changing...i.e. send the report with saved data to someone that is experiencing the issue that also has crystal reports installed. if it is still happening in the crystal reports designer itself, then it is an issue for this forum.
2) if it is only happening in the web application, then you will want to repost to the appropriate sdk forum.
