Print dialog crashes when selecting shared printer

I have an HP laserjet 1012 installed on a G4 Mac Mini, which shares that printer with the rest of the network. Printing to it from the other G4 mini in the house works fine.
BUT
When I try to select it to print to in the print dialog on my macbook, the print dialog and printing application crash. This happens 100% of the time with firefox (actually deer park universal binary) and preview, although I have occasionally been able to print successfully from word and camino.
Both machines are updated with 10.4.6.
Thanks for any help,
Bruce

Macbook Pro and G4 mini Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Well, I finally got a chance to look at this problem again.
Sure enough, the g4 mini (that the printer is attached to) has driver 1.4.5 and the macbook pro has 2.0. hp's website doesn't have a more current driver (it just tells you it's included with current OS X releases), but I stuck the macbook pro's install CD into the mini, ran the "install additional software" and installed the hp printer drivers from that disk.
Now the mini can't print to the printer itself. It says it's trying, and then the printer queue just displays "jobs stopped."
Any ideas how to fix it?
Thanks,
Bruce

JVM crashes when selecting non-default printer in ReportViewer in NATIVE dialog.

On ReportViewer frame i have the print button active. If i click the print button (Native dialog) and select a printer other than default printer, the JVM crashes. Any idea how to fix it?
Thanks

I wanted to provide little history of what I am trying to achieve. Currently, I have the following code:
PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
        if (printJob.printDialog()) {
            String printerName = printJob.getPrintService().getName();
            String printJobName = printJob.getJobName();
            PrintReportOptions printOptions = redirectPrinter(printerName, printJobName);
            sendReportOutputAndClose(reportClientDoc, printOptions);
I want to capture the number of copies user selects from the dialog. When I do printJob.getCopies(), it always returns 1. Not sure how to get that # of copies user selected. I also wanted to the dialog to be in Native mode because I don't want to give access to modify Margins and other page properties which are part of COMMON dialog mode. If I create the dialog printJobAttribute.setDialog(JobAttributes.DialogType.NATIVE); then VM crashes when selecting a non-default printer but I am able to get the number of copies. The key is I need to use NATIVE dialog and get the number of copies. One option is to display in COMMON dialog mode and then hide the "Page Setup" and "Appearance" tabs. Can this be done ? I am new to Java and Crystal so any suggestions would help.

Elements 13 crashes when selecting Print

Elements13 crashes when selecting Print from the File menu.
Rebuilding the Preferences file will bring the Print menus back, but only temporarily.

JVM crashes when selecting a CLOB in a OracleCallableStatement

Hi all:
We have a lot of places in our codebase where we "batch" a no. of
selects using the OracleCallableStatement for better performance (i.e.
save multiple roundtrips to the db). Recently we upgraded to Oracle
8.1.7 and converted the LONG column in one of our tables to CLOB. Once
we did that, every place in the system where we use a "batch" select
(using refcursor) the JVM crashes (no stack trace, just the infamous Dr.
Watson on NT and SIGBUS SEGV on Solaris)
We are running wl510 sp10 , driver is weblogic oci (oci817_8).
Here is a sample code
cstmt = (OracleCallableStatement)con.prepareCall(
"BEGIN \n"
+ " OPEN ? FOR SELECT A, B, C FROM TAB1 where ..;\n"
+ " OPEN ? FOR SELECT X, Y, Z FROM TAB2 where ..;\n"
+ " END;");
cstmt.registerOutParameter(1, Types.OTHER);
cstmt.registerOutParameter(2, Types.OTHER);
cstmt.execute();
rs = cstmt.getResultSet(1);
Is there an update or patch for the driver which resolves this issue?
thanks much,
mohan

Photoshop CS6 crashes when selecting tools

Hi, I'm having the same problem as a few other members (Photoshop CS6 occasionally crashes when selecting tools) and have updated the driver on my HD5770 card to the latest version (8.961.0.0) as this is the recommended fix. Unfortunately this hasn't fixed the problem.
Here is the error report from the most recent crash.
This is very irritating as I inevitably lose some of my work when the application crashes.
What else do you suggest as a fix?
Steve

I installed 12.3 and restarted my computer. This did not solve the problem.
I've reinstalled Photoshop twice as well with no developments.
Then, I found this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4289204
My card (Radeon X 1300 / X 1550) is not listed in the "Tested video cards for Photoshop CS6" section.
If I go to Edit->Preferences->Performance, and mouse-over the "Graphics Processor Settings" section, it says "Photoshop detected an error in your display driver. Update or reinstall the driver and check Use Graphics Processor to retry".
Is there any way around this?

InDesign CC crashes when selecting text

Hello folks!
I have a serious issue here on my Windows 7 64bit notebook:
InDesign CC (and also CS6 before) keep crashing when selecting text.
I was still on CS6 when this failure appeared first. The strange thing is, it happens not always. When InDesign is opened new it will not crash instantly (most times). After some selecting random text a few times InDesign will crash with the well known "InDesign doesn't work anymore" message. There seems no pattern while selecting text (like special characters, certain fonts, whatever).
Tried to use CC – no luck! still crashing.
After some research in the forum I read, that this is very rare issue only occuring if there are more than 1 Windows accounts with both InDesign running. Indeed I made new account shortly before the first time this happened.
But sadly even after I completely wiped the second account, all my InDesigns (CS5, CS6, CC), all prefs, and also all fonts (as recommend in a thread with people havong trouble with just the type-tool itself) and all registry thingies the problem remains. Why?
Please help, it really kills the productivity.
Thanks in advance for everything!

Well, wonky extension seems like a good idea, but can be withdrawed because I haven't installed one.
The font issue is also equally probable. As already mentioned: The interesting aspect here is, that both InDesign CS6 and CC will crash. It happened the first time when Windows decided to blue screen and f*** up my account (I wasn't able to log in anymore, I had to made a new one). I once read in another thread that there is a problem occuring when having multiple Windows accounts with InDesign running. Re-installing InDesign didn't help. Font problem after all?
I have installed at the moment:
MainType
NexusFont
Typograf
and some small others, like: dp4 Font Viewer or FontViewOk

Adobe Photoshop crashing when selecting print preferences

Hi There,
It seems that within the past 2 days in our company we have had users complain that Adobe Photoshop is crashing when they go to print and print preferences. They say a window appears and says "Photoshop has stopped working and windows is looking for a solution".
Has anybody else experienced this over the past couple days? It was working on all computers until recently.
The computers are a mostly Windows 8 computers with 1 Windows 7.

try resetting preferences by holding down shift-ctrl-alt while starting ps. if done correctly a confirmation dialog with appear.
if that fails, this worked for someone else,
System Preferences>Print & Fax. Selected the Konica Minolta printer (the B/W printer was working fine). Changed the name. Still didn't fix it. Went back selected my newly named Konica Minolta then "Open Print Queue" (like Dave said)>print settings. Change the driver to "Generic Postscript printer." I could print, but only on letter-size paper, no other options available (need tabloid). Went back to system preferences>print & fax>Konica Minolta2>open print queue>drivers then I reselected the updated printer drivers--the same one that hasn't been working.

FrameMaker crashes when selecting print book file

I have recenctly update to TCS4. FrameMaker crashes when I select Print Book but will produce a PDF is I select Save As PDF.
Anyone else experiencing this and have a resolution?

While I agree that this should not occur, you've said you can produce a PDF...
Is there a reason you don't want to print from the PDF?
Many long-time Framers are so used to doing this that we don't even use the Print dialog anymore...
That said, if you want to track down the culprit, try the excellent suggestions above:
set printer to Adobe PDF
MIF wash
Create a new book, and open all files
and add 2 more to the list:
Ensure that all the alerts are checked in Edit > Preferences > Global > Alerts
Update your book and address any missing resource messages

Adobe apps crash when selecting paper type in print driver

I installed the CS5 design premium suite and it worked fine ... did not crash when I selected the different paper types in the xerox driver. Then today the updater ran and did updates for all the programs, and now I can't select the paper type.
Running osx 10.6.4 and the printer is a Xerox 7665

Don't worry, solved it. Tested the printer using my powerbook G4 running 10.4.8. It worked fine so I copied the HP folder from /Library/Printers from the PB to the PM G5, repaired permissions using disk utility, rebooted and the G5 can now print fine to the HP.

Outlook 2013 crashes when collapsing shared calendar

The following issues occurs when viewing shared calendars with Outlook 2013. It occurs on multiple workstations and with multiple users.
When collapsing a shared calendar by clicking the arrow to the left of the calendar name, if one or more users of the shared calendar are selected (i.e. the box next to their name is checked), the Outlook screen will appear to refresh the screen repeatedly
whilst the cursor flashes rapidly. Outlook then crashes and has to be re-started.
The work-around is to de-select any selected users of the shared calendar before collapsing it, but we cannot reasonably expect users to remember this.
Is there a fix for this issue? Others have had the same issue (see http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/419634-outlook-2013-stops-responding-when-trying-to-collapse-a-group-of-calendars).
Running outlook in safe mode makes no difference.
Thanks

CS5 InDesign crashing when selecting text

I get this crash when I select text, and then select more text. It takes a usually 3–5 times, but it crashes. I've tried uninstalling fonts and I've tried with brand new documents using system fonts. Any suggestions?
http://pastebin.com/vucbJRbC

.. in which case I could run a cursory check. At the very least I will be able tell whether the file is physically damaged (missing parts of the file), or if it's internally damaged (a bad code in an otherwise good file).
Are you free to post the file somewhere? [Unfortunately, Adobe doesn't allow InDesign files to be shared through this forum ]

Apple TV crashes when accessing Shared Music

_Short Description:_ Every time I try to access Shared Music on Apple TV, it crashes.
Detailed: I have a Windows 7 PC running iTunes. My music library is very large (1 TB), so it is on an external drive, and I have just added that folder to iTunes. Apple TV is connected to my network, and shows as a "speaker" in iTunes or Remote, and I can stream music TO it fine, but every time I try to access shared music from the Apple TV, it crashes. Initially, I thought it might be due to fact that my iTunes library is so large, so I tried creating a small playlist of iTunes songs, and only sharing that playlist, and Apple TV still crashes when I select SHared Music from the menu. I have been searching the web for months to find a solution, but can't. Any assistance would be appreciated.

The physical size of your library is not relevant (mine is closing in on 4 TB - but the vast majority is video). What is important is the number of items since this will determine the size of your itunes database, if your 1 TB is all music you may well have in excess of 100,000 items and this may be your problem.
Since you are talking about shared music you must have a secondary library, but you don't get an option to share playlists with a secondary library, so I'm a little confused. Assuming for a moment your nomenclature is misleading me and you have a primary library, then you are likely talking about syncing playlists. Syncing a playlist will not change the size of your database since all unsynced content remains able to be streamed.
If you are using a primary library, try checking the only show synced items and resyncing.
(Please excuse my unsupported nomenclature)

Desktop Manager Constantly crashing when syncing shared calandar.

Hi All,
Thanks in advance for any help its much appreciated. Several users at my workplace have to sync shared calandars to their devices which is done using the DTM.
We have just received new Bold devices and when trying to sync one of the users devices when syncing the selected shared calandar (Microsoft Exchange public folder) its gets to about 90% (26500 entries approx) and the software crashes.
I have scoured the web for solutions but can't find anything definitive. They are mainly associated with old versions of the desktop software and older versions of windows. I am using the latest version 7.1 and windows 7. Some post suggests its related to a particular calandar entry that its failing on however I dont know how to go about figuring which record it is.

Hi trevor_bold and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
Have you checked to see how long the calendar is set to keep appointments in your BlackBerry? You can check this from within the calendar, press the menu key, go to Options>General Options. If your BlackBerry is removing older entries, it will try to remove those entries from your iCal when you synchronize.
Let me know if this helps!

Adobe Premiere CC Crashes When Selecting Multiple Clips

This project was already derailed by multicam, now that I've got my assembly edit ready to go, I've discovered a new show-stopper: Premiere Pro CC crashes when I select multiple clips on the timeline. I can't select more than 3 clips at a time, or the entire program comes crashing to it's knees. Anyone else experiencing something like this? Can anyone else reproduce this behavior?
Here's a video of the experience:
http://youtu.be/DPOUinOSzDE
Any word on an update?
ASUS G75VX
Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit
GTX 670MX, 3GB GDDR5
16GB RAM

Progress. I've been able to isolate the problem. On my timeline I have some "regular" clips and some "merged" clips. Regular clips are from either source: a Canon 7D (MP4 / MOV) or a Canon VIXIA HF G20 (AVCHD). The Merged clips are only from the Canon 7D only (for video) and an audio recorder (MP3 at 320kbps). The 7D footage is 1080/24p. The VIXIA also shoots in 24p.
Since "Merge Clips" sync on audio is not working for me, I've employed my former CS6 workflow:
1. Sync all of the video and audio clips through PluralEyes 3 resulting in a preliminary sequence, "Clips_to_be_merged_sequence".
2. I work my way through each of the clips, adjusting the audio track(s) for variances in drift between the on camera sound and the audio recorder. I do this enabling "Audio Time Units", rather than video frames, so I can get extremely acurate.
3. When I have a timeline full of nicely syncronized audio/video pairs, I merge clips, one painstaking clip at a time (of course I set up a keyboard shortcut for this). For the merge, I "sync on In points".
4. The merged clip is added to my project panel.
5. Now, when it comes time to choose my sound bite selects, I load the merged clip into the Source panel and mark my Ins and Outs.
6. Time to create a subclip, of course with the new SOFT handles. (I'VE BEEN WANTING SOFT HANDLES FOR A LONG TIME!!!)
7. The subclip appears to be properly created and placed into the Project panel. It even shows the correct duration (i.e. 14 seconds)
8. When I drag that subclip onto the timeline it drags the entire length of the parent clip, without in or out points (not just the 14 second subclip).
9. I undo and decide to go back through the original clips again; mark ins and outs and simply drop to the timeline (either Insert or Overwrite).
So in the end, I'm using sections of the Merged clip, but I'm not using Subclips of the Merged clips (because that doesn't work).
Now, what's happening, though I didn't know it when I recorded the video above, is that Premiere is crashing any time I select both "regular" footage and "merged" footage.
So, two bugs here:
1. Can't use Subclips that are derived from Merged clips in ANY timeline. Once dragged to the timeline it expands to the full duration of the original clip.
2. Can't select both "regular" and "merged" clips at the same time on the timeline.
JStrawn (staff) was kind enough to offer to take a look at some small sample files. But my interview clips are very long, and I'm concerned that if I export them, to make them shorter, they may not actually exibit the problems I'm having on the original clips.
Anyone else using this type of "Merge Clip" workflow that could reproduce either the subclip-from-merged-clip bug or the mixed-selection crash given the steps above?

Photoshop crashes when selecting File / Automate / Batch

Photoshop users still need a fix for Photoshop crashing whenever they select Batch.
I understand that Adobe staff has chosen to blame scanner drivers for the problem. And, I've read the discussions thru last year (very long and boring when all you want is a fix). But, I'm not settled on several things which do not add-up.
First, I'll review the symptoms for the sake of all interested readers. Photoshop users have reported Photoshop crashing whenever they select File / Automate / Batch from the menu for years. This problem got much worse (widespread) since the release of version 12.0.4. The problem apparently affects only those with Train compatible scanners and who installed Adobe's optional Twain plugin. I never read how anyone came to this conclusion, but scanner drivers are being blamed. The accepted work-around is to disable or remove Adobe's Twain plugin.
Second, I want to point out that Photoshop works normally when using the Twain plugin. I can scan images and they are imported directly into Photoshop without any problems. This was the case before the 12.0.4 update and is still the case now.
Third, I want to pose my most pressing question. What does selecting "Batch..." have to do with scanner drivers? In other words, what possibly could Photoshop be doing with scanner drivers when selecting "Batch..." that it does not do when actually does use the drivers?
Lastly, I'll point out that I am a software developer of over 30 years. So, I understand how it might somehow work out in the details that the source of the problem really is buggy scanner drivers. However, as a programmer with a lot of experience dealing with problems common in device driver API's, I know that good practice is to expect anything. If Photoshop begins a process that calls out to someone else's software API, it should cushion that call with proper exception error handling. All processes should execute with an "if all else fails" contention.

>> What does selecting "Batch..." have to do with scanner drivers?
When running the actions for the Batch command, Photoshop updates it's menu/command state to check which commands are enabled or disabled based on the document state being changed by the actions. Part of that update is calling the scanner interface to see what is available or not, and at that point some drivers crash. Since the crash occurs in third party code executed within Photoshop's context - there was not much Photoshop could do to recover (there was exception handling, but it couldn't work across OS and DLL boundaries).
In Photoshop CS6, we spent quite a bit of time figuring out why they were crashing (apparently there was some assumption about the application GUI state), and how we could avoid them crashing in those circumstances - and now CS6 avoids the crashes in the Batch command even with the TWAIN plugin and drivers are loaded.
