Print dialog not remembering settings

I have a very simple saved setting for my Lexmark E332n printer that sets the paper feed to manual. The problem is that since upgrading to Leopard, the manual paper feed setting is not remembered. In fact I have tried deleting the saved setting, setting the paper feed to manual and then saving that... and watching manual feed be reset to Auto-Feed with no other intervention on my part. Saved print settings are a great feature. I hope Apple can fix this problem so that it again works as well it did in Tiger.
By the way, I downloaded and installed the latest drivers on the Lexmark web site, and I'm getting the same behavior before and after doing so.

Fx Print - not remembering settings though i saved them

Hello:
I am not sure why, but the Fx Print Dialog is not remembering my settings.
see screenshot:
I desire the settings:
> print selection only
> and I choose print to PDF
I am a bit bored of having to choose these 2 settings EVERY single time i print a page. I never print as in print out. Always to PDF.
I have made these 2 changes, clicked preset and said save. But still Fx does not register I have done this.
Maybe these 2 settings cannot be remembered.
So if anyone knows how i can have these 2 settings remembered, please lmk. All I want to do is click my print icon on my toolbar and these 2 settings be defaulted. I always select the content (e.g. without the headings etc..) then I click the print icon.
thankyou for your help in advance.

Try this from the Presets: select "Save Current Settings as Preset.." and select for this printer only.

Print dialog not shown on Acrobat reader 11 and Mac OS X 10.9.2

No matter what document I open, print dialog never appear and I cannot print any document.
I tried also to install older version of acroread but still no luck.
I found also this settings tab quite strange like something is missing.
Can anyone help me?

I have the same problem.
It is not a matter of 'error message' nor does it have anything to do with the link provided. That link is all about scanning initiatives from the Mac. The question here is about doing the scanning initiative from the scanner control panel. That is called 'Scan to computer'.
Somehow the Mac has to be put in a receiving mode for that (makes sense). HP only provides the neccessary info for Windows, because 'This step is not necessary for Mac operating systems'. See http://h20566.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/learnUseDisp lay/?sp4ts.oid=5304875&spf_p.tpst=psiContentDisplay&spf_p.prp_psiContentDisplay= wsrp-navigationalState%3DdocId%253Demr_na-c03767419-7%257CdocLocale%253Den_US&ja vax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vi gnette.cachetoken
Seems the Mac is in receiving mode by default. But that is not the case. Because the printer says it sees no available computers.
So how can the Mac be put in receiving mode manually ? Or what should happen to make it in receiving mode by default ?

Print dialog not displaying when trying to print PDF document

Hello All,
I am using below code to print a pdf file. And the same code working fine when i am using with simple java class. and if i am using the same code with my jsf backing bean action method it was not working.
Code here:
Document document = new Document();
FileOutputStream combinedOutput = new FileOutputStream(bulkBarcodes);
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, combinedOutput);
document.open();
String barCodeNum = filetrakcode.getBarCodeID().toString();
Barcode bc = new Barcode(barCodeNum, DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILE);
document.add(new Paragraph("\n"));
document.add(new Paragraph("\n"));
Image image = Image.getInstance(bc.generateBarcodeBytes(bc.getBarcode()));
document.add(image);
combinedOutput.flush();
document.close();
combinedOutput.close();
File f = new File(bulkBarcodes.getAbsolutePath());
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);
FileChannel fc = fis.getChannel();
ByteBuffer bb = fc.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, fc.size());
PDFFile pdfFile = new PDFFile(bb); // Create PDF Print Page
PDFPrintPage pages = new PDFPrintPage(pdfFile);
PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
PageFormat pf = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob().defaultPage();
printJob.setJobName(f.getName());
Book book = new Book();
book.append(pages, pf, pdfFile.getNumPages());
printJob.setPageable(book);
//Send print job to default printer
if(printJob.printDialog())
printJob.print();
When i am calling my action method (method contains above code) it was creating pdf file and writing the data init success fully but when i have not used "if(printJob.printDialog())" it was printing document directely successfully but when i am calling "if(printJob.printDialog())" it was not opening print dialog box and it was showing me like process is going on and it was not proceeding further
what's the problem
Please help me.
Thanks In advance,
Indira.

Hi Kavi,
just have a look into the driver-program. I'm pretty sure someone has programmed a loop.
IF it is a NAST-driver program, check if your specific user has a printer SU03. That sounds a lot like this mistake

Windows not remembering settings in MacBook Pro 15"

hey all,
I have a MacBook Pro 15" released in 2008. I have dual booting set up between Mac OS X.5.6 and Windows XP. I have what I'd consider a unique problem but may be someone else out there has had similar issues.
Every time I launch into Windows, *it does not remember any of my settings such as my bluetooth wireless mighty mouse and my bluetooth wireless rocketfish keyboard or to use my external 28 inch Hannspree monitor as my primary.* I don't care so much about windows not remembering my monitor preference but it would be nice every time I log into windows having my mouse and keyboard ready to go.
When I launch into OS X, it remembers everything, from the external keyboard and mouse to setting the dock and top bar to the external 28 inch monitor.
Any thoughts on how to get this to work in Windows. Is there some some application that can do this.
Thanks,
Doug

Is this what you've tried:
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.

Mac OS printer dialog not working

I searched the internet and found lots of similar posts but none exactly matched my situations and the solutions other people provided did not work.
Mac 10.9.4
Printer HP ENVY 4500 Series
Adobe Reader 11.0.07 (already tried reinstalling)
I want to do 2-sided printing and I learned from the internet that I had to use the OS printer dialog (by pressing "Printer" at the bottom of the Adobe printing dialog). But after pressing "Print" on the OS printer dialog, nothing happens. No errors. Print job doesn't even show up. It does print if I use the Adobe dialog, but it only prints on one side. I actually successfully printed duplex using the OS dialog last week but now it just doesn't work.
Please help! This is so frustrating.

Audio MIDI Setup not remembering settings on startup

On a Macbook 1,1 Intel Core Duo 2 GHz, SMC Version 1.4f12, OS X 10.4.8, Aggregate Device @ 2ch-24bit/96000.0 Hz:
The Audio MIDI Setup does not remember the 'Default Output' as 'Aggregate Device' and although 'Aggregate Device' is shown in the Properties For: field, only the 'Audio Input' area is shown.
Changing or re-selecting the Sample Rate under 'Format:' results in 'Aggregate Device' appearing in the 'Default Output:' field and the 'Audio Output' area showing the configuration.
I have to perform these steps every time I startup. I had the same behavior on my previous MacBook with identical specs but a different build week.
Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but Apple has absolutely no way to e-mail technical support queries unless you purchase that 'feature'? You have to call them with each 'bug' or technical difficulty?
Thanks!
Matt

Ah, Ok. Turns out the issue I described only occurs when there's an optical digital cable plugged into the output at startup.
Unplugging it and restarting does not return Audio MIDI Setup to it's previous behavior. Deleting the second of those two files you mentioned then performing the steps I first reported and then restarting without the optical digital cable inserted returns things to 'normal' and after numerous reboots continues to work as normal.
So, if I ever start up the MacBook with the digital optical cable inserted I will have to delete the .plist file if I want the proper behavior to return. Seems like a bug to me...
Thanks!

Sapscript: Print Dialog not coming up!!!!!!!

Dear All,
One of my SapScript program is behaving abnormally. When I execute it using the login of ABAP, the Print Dialog Box appears where the user can select the output device etc for printing but when I do the same from some other login, other than that of ABAP, the print dialog box doesn't appear, hence the user is unable to get a print.
What could be the reason?? Please advice..
Regards & Thanks in advance,
Alok.

Thanks Kozerski, for your valuable input. It solved my problem.
Thanks once again..I have rewarded your reply also.

Location bar under privacy tab not remembering settings

Ever since Firefox 16 and 17 versions came out I've always had this issue with the location bar not remembering my option. "When using the location bar, suggest: Nothing." Is what I prefer but if I ever reboot my computer or simply restart firefox over all, it always goes back to the option "History and Bookmarks." I find this very annoying. The reason I waited so long to report this is because I had hoped the next version of Firefox would take care of it. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem or will I have to simply wait till it's fixed by Firefox itself?

Unfortunately, that didn't help me. I went ahead and uninstalled Firefox completely without saving any customizations and reinstalled it. Seems to work fine now.

Leopard not remembering settings?

Hello,
I'm currently having a problem with Leopard remembering my settings. Whenever I open Firefox, it asks me if I would like to set Firefox as my default browser. I always say yes, but when I restart my computer Safari has been reset as the default browser. So, Firefox asks me again if I would like to make it my default browser.
This also happens with my firewall settings. Every time I open iChat it asks me if I would like to allow iChatAgent through the firewall. I say yes, but the setting never sticks.
Has anybody else experienced this? Does anybody know how to fix this?

I had this issue until I used a free app that allows much more control over the default apps and which extensions open which app's, I still really haven't found where you get access to it in a global setup format, going to Info and selecting what the file uses just would take forever. Go here -> http://www.rubicode.com/Software/RCDefaultApp/
its a system preference plug in (you simply drop it on the the system preference box when the app is open) and it will allow you to adjust what opens for internet, what opens for a .txt or a .text or a .Idontcare. etc etc. Very cool app that helps you see what you managed to get your settings set to all in one area. Hope that helps. Also with all the weirdness going on with Leopard and its new ACL's, have you ran a verify/repair disk permissions, as the settings that are adjusted could be unwritable and thus why your not getting the results you want. Hope that helps.

Save As/Open File dialog not remembering Recent Places

Ok this is annoying.
Working with files from a network server (PC). Whenever I try and open documents, save documents, or place images/text into a document (InDesign etc) the open/save/place dialog box that appears always defaults to the User/Documents folder. It seems to be that it is only the server folders that do this as it remembers Recent Places, and automatically goes to the last folder accessed in the dialog, for local files from my HD.
I've tried a tip in another thread regarding deleting com.apple.LaunchServices-xxxx.csstore files (as I did have 2 of them with negative numbers) but that didn't fix anything.
Any ideas?
iMac 24" Widescreen, 2GB Ram Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I think this is pretty normal behavior. Servers don't usually remember where clients have saved files and neither do some applications. You can, however, create sharepoints using the freeware utility Sharepoints.
You could try the shareware utility Default Folder X which may enable you to preserve default locations even on remote servers.
Referenced software can be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

Print presets not keeping settings after saved?

I've created a preset to have the object printed to Scale at 100%, but none of the settings stick. I turned off Auto Rotate, set it to Landscape, and set it to Scale-100%, but after every print job it goes back to Auto Rotate: On, Portrait, and Scale to Fit: Print Entire Image.
Scale is the important one here, the others were just tests to see if any settings I change are staying, however none of them seem to. Any ideas? This is on a 2.66GHz Intel Core2Duo running 10.6.8.
Thanks in advance for any help, this is really frustrating!

Yes, it works fine when I hit Print that first time, it's when I go BACK to do more using what should be a preset that the settings aren't sticking. If I make a preset, I shouldn't have to change the settings every single time, since that sort of negates the point of a preset.

Adobe flash player not remembering settings

i just bought a brand new hp laptop and im having some difficiculty with adobe flash player 10. i am running it on vista x64 and in firefox but whenever i run something like gmail's video chat, it asks me everytime to 'allow' it. i have tried going to the settings and allowing the gmail to 'allow' access to my webcam and voice recorder and click on 'always' but it never actually saves the changes. the same is true when i come to the adobe site and try to change the global settings. nothing i change in any of the settings will save. its pretty frustrating i tried looking into it some and it sounded like the problem may be that im running it at x64. im not sure if this is the case tho. im clueless, hence this thread. also, i'm not sure if there is any correlation, but i can't get the music player on myspace profiles to show up, not a major concern to me tho.

Check out this article and see whether anything there helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].
Also, you probably want to look under Tools > Add-ons > Plugins for Shockwave Flash.
