Please help with printing from Thinkpad

I've spent the last couple of days reviewing similar posts, and tried suggestions within with no success. Here's my problem:
I have an older iMac running 10.3.9 wirelessly connected to the internet with an Airport Extreme I picked up about a year ago. Recently I decided to run my printer through the Airport. My Mac found the printer with no problem, and prints just fine.
I also have an IBM ThinkPad, running Windows XP. I have no trouble, after initial setup headaches, getting the ThinkPad to find the network and get online, but I can't print from the ThinkPad.
I used Bonjour to find the printer, an hp deskjet 940c, and the setup seemed to work. (I used the manufacturer's disk for the driver.) But everytime I try to print I get: "this document failed to print" error message. The ThinkPad is connected to the network and online.
I also wish the ThinkPad could find the iMac. Is this wishful thinking?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dear snaggl2th,
Try this
pageFormat = pf
g = g2
g.translate((int)pageFormat.getImageableX(),(int)pageFormat.getImageableY());
int wPage = (int)pageFormat.getImageableWidth();
int hPage = (int)pageFormat.getImageableHeight();
g.setClip(0,0,wPage,hPage);Hope it helps

Please help with Synch from Blackberry to Outlook

Hello Everybody, I am new here and need help. Due to a restructure, my position was eliminated. The company used Lotus Notes and I had everything synched with my Blackberry and it worked fine. Of course, I had to return the Blackberry but did get a copy of the data (address book, calendar entries, and memo notes as well as e-mail).
I bought Outlook and am using my wife's older BB (I think it is an 8700 series based on pictures.) I was able to get the address book loaded somehow into Outlook, but when I try to do a full synch, I get the following error after Intellisync does read the calendar records:
"No Outlook or MS Exhchange folders appear to be configured. Please run Intellisync Configure, and make sure all selected applications have associated Outlook/MS Exchange folder."
I have tried to configure but I am not able to "browse" for a file. That area is grayed out.
Please help! Thank you very much.

you can't dynamically-link a Pr sequence into an AE comp, and then turn around and link that AE comp back into a Pr sequence.
Close enough. Seen it done in the tutorials. There's a way to select the desired clips, directly open a new AE project and comp from Premiere with those clips exactly as they are in the Premiere sequence, do your manipulations in AE, then when you switch back to Premiere, those AE changes show up on the clips in question. You effectively get Premiere>AE>Premiere. Any and all changes made in AE show up in Premiere. The only thing you can't yet do is make changes to the original clips in Premiere, as they get replaced by the AE comp.
Still, I'd call that two way DL, and it may be the most efficient way to ge this job done.
Potato, Potahto. Smoke and mirrors. The only difference between that and the copy/paste that I described above is that Premiere automatically does the copy/paste for you, and automatically adds the AE comp to the sequence as a replacement for the selected clips. You can call that 2-way DL if you want, but I won't. I'm pushing for real 2-way dynamic linking.

Please Help with printer issues

I have an iMac intel and with OS 10.8.3. Since the last update about 2 days ago I have not been able to print though the printer is on the same wi-fi as iMac. I have restarted both but to no avail. I deleted all the printers I had to try and add the same printer and the iMac will not list this printer, so I do not have the opportunity to add it. I rely heavilly as this is my liveliihood to be able to scan and print docs. Was this caused by the last update or is there something else going on? Please help!!!

Please help with printing issues...

I used the "Real estate" template for newsletters in Pages '08, and the newsletter looks great, but when I print it out, the top box, the "real estate" box, prints just a blue box...not at all what I am looking at on the screen, everything else is great, and even when I click on preview after print, it looks great, but does not print out the right box...I even printed just the pages template, wondering if I had edited something wrong, but even the pages template does not print the top box as shown...I have also had a difficult time printing out coupons with bar codes on them...I know it is not the printer, as it is shared with a pc, and the coupon and pdf file print fine thru the pc...what am I doing, or is there a setting I have missed?? Thanks so much.

If its a problem printing from program AND Preview, that might imply a system problem, not a program issue. You said it was one of the template files.
Send me an email this weekend (so I can get your email without posting it up here). I will produce a pdf from my machine of the same template and email it back to you. See if that one prints correctly.
If it does, then we eliminated Preview or the printing subsystem as the problem, it is with Pages producing the pdf.
If it still prints bad, then its a system issue.
I see you have printed over and over with different methods, but I don't think I saw if you exported as a pdf and printed that. have you?
Get in touch and we can try it to help narrow down your search of where the problem resides,

Help with printing from an array

hello there, looking for help. Basically i have read a text file into an array. I can print a sentence from the array using startsWith()...if i take that code out, and just put in the last part:
while(!(words.trim()).startsWith("slightly")) {
     System.out.println(i + ":" + words[i] + ":");
     i++;
this basically prints out the whole text file until it reaches the word slightly. I want to print out text that is in between two words. Now i can stop printing with this , any suggestions on how i can tell it to start printing when it finds a word....
public static void main( String[] args )
     int i = 0;
// will store the words read from the file
List<String> wordList = new ArrayList<String>();
BufferedReader br = null;
try
// attempt to open the words file
br = new BufferedReader( new FileReader( "ireland.txt" ) );
String word;
while( ( word = br.readLine() ) != null )
// add the read word to the wordList
wordList.add( word );
} catch( IOException e ) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
// attempt the close the file
br.close();
catch( IOException ex ) {
ex.printStackTrace();
String[] words = new String[ wordList.size() ];
// wordList to our string array words
wordList.toArray( words );
System.out.println(" Returning line ");
// loop and display each word from the words array
/*while(i < words.length )
     String tempWord = words[i].trim();
     //area
     if (tempWord.startsWith("'''Loc"))
          System.out.println(i+":"+ words[i]+":" );
     i++;
/*while(!(words[i].trim()).startsWith("slightly")) {
     System.out.println(i + ":" + words[i] + ":");
     i++;

This may help, it looks like the same assignment:

Please help with Exporting from Final Cut for Youtube

Hey guys, your help would be greatly appreciated!
I shot a bunch of clips using 'ishowu' with the '640x480' option enabled... then imported them into Final Cut to make a movie.
My question is, now that the movie is done, what is the best way to export for youtube, using what dimensions? I tried to export using 1280x720 for youtubes widescreen, but it stretches out my whole video making everything look abnormally wide. How can I get the best video size but without it streching out my video?

Export it using 640x480.
There is no point in making it larger because you cannot put in information that is not there originally.
640 x 480 is the optimum size. Make it any bigger and it will just appear degraded.

Please help with printer setup

I cant seem to get my new canon mp530 printer to work via airport extreme or express. I have downloaded the driver software on both powerbooks, and have been able to print when the usb is plugged in directly.I am replacing a hp1600 that worked over this network. Thank You...the error message i get is"error :300.the printer does not respond.make sure that the printer is powered on and properly connected to your computer.

Were you actually able to print successfully over the wireless connection? My printer responds wirelessly-- the print try opens, the paper feeder turns, but then I get a 306 error.
I spent hours with tech support yesterday-- two different guys-- and both said I am trying to do the impossible. They say the Base Stations are only designed to deal with printers via USB.
But I don't see why the Base Station should care whether the wireless device is a printer or xbox or what have you, if it is wireless enabled.
It's all very frustrating.

Please help with Printer problem on MBP

I am running 10.5.1 and am trying to install the software to enable me to scan. I have tried from the original CD, but it doesn't work (i assume this is because it was meant for 10.4). I have also tried downloading from the website but the download always says something like "19mb out of ?" and then eventually the downloads errors out.
Is there any way i can get the scanner to work? can anyone upload this software to me? I know its a lot to ask but im not sure what to do.

Don't know what to tell you, but I downloaded the file without any problem. Do you have enough space on your drive for the file? You may have a problem on your drive so you might consider doing the following:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger and Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. I have no problem sending the text messages but I'm not receivng any from iPhones at all. It has been about a week now that I'm having this problem. I've already tried fixing it myself and I also went into the sprint store, they tried everything as well. My last option was to contact Apple directly.

Help with Print Layout Designer

Hi all,
I'm not sure if I should post this here or not, I already posted it in the Business One Forum. Moderator(s) if this is not the proper place please delete it and let me know that it is not the appropriate venue.
I need some help with Print Layout Designer. I am running 2005A SP01, and my customer wants a modification to the Sales Backorder Report. They want to add the column "In Stock" to both the report as displayed on the screen and the printed document. The report rendered to the screen has the In Stock, but it is not checked as visible. I check it and In Stock shows up as designed. The part I am having problems with is the printed document. I opened the PLD from the Backorder Report, and saved it under a different name. I resized some of the columns in the repetitive area (header and data) to make room for the In Stock column. I CAN add the text field Instock as free text and enter "In Stock" as the content. I looked at the "backorder" column in the PLD, and it is a text field with the source System Variable and the variable is 109. I would assume that all I need to do in my added column is to set the source to System Variable and enter the variable number. That is the problem; I can't find the variable number for that column. I looked on the report rendered to the screen with system information on and the variable is "3 #000027825,OnHand". I looked at the Back Order column of the report rendered to the screen and the variable is "3 #000028725,OpenCreQty". I found a spreadsheet that is supposed to contain a list of system variables for 2007A, but the document type for this report is BRDR and that document type does not appear in the list of document types in that spreadsheet. I looked for a similar spreadsheet for 2005A SP01 but didn't find one. I DID find a document "How To Customize Printing Templates with the Print Layout Designer". According to that document, I should be able to get the system variable from the report rendered to the screen with System Information turned on. Can anyone help?
TIA,
Steve

I haven't dealt with this before so I can't be certain, but here are my thoughts.
The Backordered Qty is probably a calculated field, so that's why it's a system variable. The In Stock is a defined field, so you probably can use the file and field number, OITM, OnHand. I would look at maybe the stock number or description to see how those are setup on the form instead of the backordered qty field.
