Print migration and old eDir object assoc. to manager

I did a print migration from NW 6.5 SP7 to OES 2 SP1 linux. It said it completed but with errors. On first look, everything seemed fine. But now I found that if I manage the Print Manager and go into Printer Agents --> Tasks and look at the 'edir object name' some of the printers have the old printer name (i.e. printer_nw.printers.company). There were 21 printers migrated in this run and 4 have the _nw objects assigned to them. If I try to manage those printers I get an error saying "Invalid Object: The selected object is not a valid type for this property book. ". Whilst, the other printers (without the _nw) are fine. Also, I looked it consoleone all of the new printer objects have been created. It just seems that the manager has the old edir names assigned to some printers.
I know I can just recreate those printers and thatd care of it, but Id rather not. Is there any way to change the "edir object name" in the manager that points to the printers?
Thanks!

hi,
In iprint migration in order to create the iPrint Printer Object in the
same context we have to rename the existing object. Sometime it happens
that when we have renamed the objects and if you login to iManager
iPrint Manager Print Manager it still shows the Older printer object.
This is a typical problem of eDirectory not syncronized with other
replicas. May if you would wait all the printer which you would have
tried migrting would have been renamed to _nw in the same container.
Please try migrating and ensure your replicas are in sync. It will work.
The newer iPrint printer agent would have been created on the same
container.
thanks

    RReset printing system again and the restart in Safe Mode . This will clear some caches,to do this hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup tone until a progress bar appears, after it has fully booted restart normally and add the printer.

    Use the Office for Mac and ignore using Parallels for that. If you have PC only apps you have to run that are MS Windows only then consider Parallels. Just transfer your main PC, using Migration Assistant.  If you don't know how then simply read over Pondini's article called Lion or Mountain Lion Setup Assistant tips and look for the section on migrating from a PC. Millions have done what you are about to, it's far from leading edge these days, if you go to an Apple Store to purchase they will offer this as a service, something you might be interested in.

    Thank you for your suggestions. I downloaded a more recent version of Twain, but this didn't help. I also tried closing and opening Photo Shop and restarting my computer without success. Reinstalling Photo Shop sounds like a very promising solution, but I'm  not sure I will do it. In the meantime I can scan items using a printer program. These scans open in Photo Shop. It is an extra step.

  • How to remove old USB printer drivers and ports from Windows XP and Windows 7

    We have several instances of HP 4250 Printers connected as local USB printers. When trying to replace this model with a HP P4015n or HP 600 M602n the new models will appear to install but won't print. No error messages but sometimes they try to install with ieee 1284.4 support which would seem to be a parallel port type. We're trying to use the HP UPD PCL 5.  I'm looking for a way to completely remove the old printer instances, drivers and ports. While the printer icons and drivers seem to be able to be deleted the USB printer ports can't be deleted. Then when I go back and try to install the new model printer it can only use he existing USB port. Again, when that happens the new printer won't print. So I'm trying to get a completely fresh start with the XP SP 3 and Win 7 OS before installing the newer models. I've tried several methods to clean the USB printers but the instructions are never detailed and most times something is missing and the OS needs to be reloaded. I thought that I would see if someone who knows HP USB printers has any ideas...

    These seem to be a commercial products. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

  • Please help about Report Printer and PS tables-objects . ..

    Hi everybody
    I'm in trouble. I have a requirement in PS módule related with reports created by the Report Printer tool. I don't have any idea about these topics.
    My requirement is to create a report (not with Report Printer) with the structure for projects, with all the structure Project-WBS-Network-Activity and with some values like Budget, Commit, Actual,  Paid, etc.
    The functional consultant only tells me about some reports created with Report Printer wich have the columns required, some report has the Budget, other one has the Commit, etc. For example, one report is the tcode S_ALR_87013532; i don't know if this transaction exists in all the SAP implementations or if it was created only for my company.
    These reports only show two levels (Project-Network) so i i have to investigate:
    1. How to get all the structure levels (project-WBS-network-activity)
    2. How to 'translate' in code some value showed in a report created with Report Printer, i guess these values are created with formules and objects.
    3. How to get the same values showed in these reports, but for the Networks and Activities.
    I do not know anything about PS module and Report Printer and i really don't have any idea about how to make my development.
    4. I think the functional consultant could be able to create the report himself with the Report Printer, but he tells me he does not manage this tool so good and he wants to send SAP mails with the reports, and he say the reports created with Report Printer can not send mails. Is this true ?  and then, would be easier for me to learn Report Printer and create the report myself instead to develop it ?
    Does somebody can help me ?     Any idea ?
    Please help !!     I don't know even how to start with this.
    Thanks in advance ..

    That's the problem.  Apple doesn't make it clear that you should transfer when the new Mac starts up, not later on with Migration Assistant. 
    which told me to enter a new name . I had the new computer and old with same name. I called the new user my name with word "old" so not the same name as old Mac.
    The problem isn't the names, it's the (mostly hidden) User ID number (UID).  See the pink box in Problems after using Migration Assistant for an explanation of what happened.
    Your best bet is to use one of the workarounds (probably #4) in the green box there, to re-transfer your account.  It will have exactly the same name and permissions as before.
    If you want to change the name, you can, but it takes a minor finagle. Post back if you want to do that.

  • I have a new Mac and I migrated mi old one to this. I can not open iTunes because a message stating "iTunes Library.itl" can not be opened because it was created in more recent version of iTunes. There is not a new version to download.

    I have a new Mac and I migrated mi old one to this. I can not open iTunes because a message stating "iTunes Library.itl" can not be opened because it was created in more recent version of iTunes. There is not a new version to download. How can I fix this?                             

    Go to iTunes > about iTunes.  What version are you running?  If necessary, hold down the option key while starting iTunes and create a new, test library so it will start.

  • HT201250 i am looking for a old email.  I already finished migration and it shows successful.  But, i can't find the old email record .  Where is the file?

    I want to restore the email from time capsule.  After migration and it shows successful, but, I still cannot find the email data.  Pls adv

    The missing file thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    At guess you've used a different profile name. Files inside the media folder have survied the transfer, but those outside are expected to be on the same absolute file paths, but no longer are.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

  • Printer Migration

    We currently have 2 standalone 2008 R2 print servers that have separate objects. We plan to consolidate
    the objects on those servers onto one 2012 R2 print server. If we follow the steps here will
    the objects still exist on the old print server after the migration?

  • How to check and maintain authorization objects

    Hi  Alll            
    Let me knowhow to check and maintain authorization objects  in SU24 ECC 6.0.
    Thanks
    sathies

    Hi Sathies,
    the old check flags
    U
    Unmaintained
    No indicator set. The check for corresponding authorization object is always executed. Field values are not displayed in the Profile Generator.
    N
    No check
    Check disabled. Field values are not displayed in the Profile Generator. This indicator cannot be set for HR and Basis authorization objects.
    C
    Check
    Check always executed. Field values are not displayed in the Profile Generator. For example: Printer authorizations.
    CM
    Check/maintain
    Check always executed. Field values are displayed for changing in the Profile Generator (yellow light).
    Have been divided now in
    Checkindicator : Check/NoCheck
    and
    Proposal: Yes/No.
    If defaults=yes, then you can modify them after clicking on the apropriate button.
    Please refer to the online help for SU24 too.
    Although the look of su24 has been changed significantly, the technique behind it is still the same.
    Once you have pressed the 'edit'-button on the top left corner, additional editing options will appear in the right-top-frame.

  • DHCP edir object location questions

    I'm used to how NetWare did things, so:
    On NetWare, I think it used to be advised, that your locator object be located "high" up in the tree.
    Then your other DHCP edir objects would be located where the server object was.
    In OES2 Linux, is this still the case?
    Or does each OES2 DHCP server have its own locator object now?
    And, if each server does have its own object, where should they be located in the edir tree? (where the server object is--we have lots of WAN locations and edir is partitioned, we don't replicate the O=ABC container to the regions).
    Thanks!

    configuration information they want to read. So you should only have one
    DHCP group object, though having multiple ones may appear to work until
    some day you change something in your global DHCP configration and you
    will suddenly find that DHCP servers start to behave incosistently.

    Okay thanks Marcel.
    So, since I now have:
    One OES2 DHCP Locator object in my O=ABC
    and
    One OES2 Group object in my O=ABC
    I don't really want/need anymore
    And, when I setup/install my 2nd server, I just have to be careful with the install screen so that I can choose the existing locator and group objects?
    (like it won't overwrite or stomp on the something if it finds it already?)
    And then when I get to the migration screen, I guess that's my next fun part.
    There's three items I choose when doing a server level migration:
    Base DN (I'm guessing that's where it puts the service and server objects, so I'm going to want to choose my little regional container)
    The Locator DN (so I browse and choose my O=ABC one)
    and
    Group DN (so I browse and choose my O=ABC one as well)
    Sorry to be stupid, but I (should really say "we") messed up and when we did the migration, chose the O=ABC, so it put all the stuff in there (services, server object, etc.)
    So now I gotta move them around somehow.

  • HT4356 I can air print documents and email from my iPhone 5, but I cannot figure out how to print one of my Outlook Contacts. Any ideas?

    I can air print documents and email from my iphone 5, but cannot figure out to print a contact from Outlook from my iphone.

    As far as I know you can't delete the primary email address for an iCloud account.  It's assigned when the account is created.  But your neighbor wouldn't have been able to get into your iCloud account without your Apple ID and password.  Are you sure the account wasn't still on your phone when you gave it to him?
    You could migrate a copy of your data to a new iCloud account but I would still be concerned that someone else was using my old account, which presumably still has your data in it.
    I'm fairly certain that you're going to have to have iCloud support help you sort this one out as they may have the ability to make changes to an existing account that users can't.  Make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store and have them take a look at it.  If necessary, they should be able to contact iCloud support for you.
