Printer Administrators Group Problem when trying to share a printer

I cannot type in the box shown in the image and I cant share the printer on the network
Using 10.9.4
Thanks

Eric,
I may have misunderstood what you meant by "Are you logged into an admin account?"
I was logged in as a user and then switching to an Admin user when asked within System Preferences and I got the same result as before.
I suspect this is not the same as : "Being logged into an admin account"
I shut down the computer, logged in as Admin, deleted the printer, deleted the original Xerox printer driver download file,
ran the printer driver uninstall, emptied the bin, shut down computer and on the cold restart logged in again as Admin and reinstalled the 10.8 drivers (no 10.9 drivers available) from Xerox website and the printer now works from an airbook.
[ I did the same with the airbook]
Need to try the other laptops when they get back from college.
Thanks for your replies.

  • Printer setup quits unexpectedly when trying to install hp printer

    Can't reinstall hp printer. Sometimes, when you click add printer; it just spins forever, but doesn't come up with a print driver; other times, it shows up correctly but when you push the add button, it blows up.

    I have the same issue - tried the same solution. No improvement, but now get "server-error-service-unavailable" message. Advised by HP to review Apple Service Document # 107054, which offered "Reset the printing system" as a solution. This did not work either.

  • Hi There, I have a problem when trying to print either Email or from a web page.

    Hi There,
    I have a problem when trying to print contents fro either Email's or from web pages, the problem started after i opened Google earth and it down loaded Google Chrome i do not like Google chrome so i removed it from my pc via add and remove programmes since then when i try to print an email i get what looks like the computer settings for writing the email and not the text same for web pages, as anyone come across this problem before i can print any word or spreadsheet documents but problem is with email's and web pages.
    Many Thanks.

    Something changed on your system, possibly when Google Chrome installed. It could  be many things, but what it boils down to, is it needs to go back to the way it was. Either by removing whatever else might still be left from the install, or maybe by reinstalling the printer itself.

  • Trying to share a printer attached to a PPC Mac Mini

    Hi all.
    I'm reinsterting an old Mac Mini running OS X 10.5.8 as a headless print server. I can interact with it via other computers to share the screen, so my network protocol with the computer is sound. My problem is, I can't seem to print to any printer attached to this computer--this is obviously a problem, as that's the whole reason I've revived this device.
    Sharing setup for all computers is complete and the client computers don't seem to have any trouble seeing the printer. But when I print to it, the job is sent VERY quickly (suspiciously so) from my clients (a Mac Mini Intel in the living room and a MacBook), and the PPC mini shows no indication a print job was ever delivered.
    Any brilliant ideas? I'm sure it's something really basic I'm not remembering or thinking about, and I'm sure someone has already asked this question; feel free to direct me to that solution, as my searching efforts didn't produce anything that I felt was helpful--but I've been wrong before.
    Thanks!

    OK then, please post a brand new question in the OS X 10.5.8 "Leopard" forum:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.5_leopard
    I no longer have a Leopard system to test and I used my one brilliant idea for today.
    A new question should solicit more interest. Hopefully one of the old guard can think of something. Reference this thread so they can read what you did so far: Trying to share a printer attached to a PPC Mac Mini
    Edit: Before you go, can you print to this printer while directly attached to the other computers too? Make sure it's not a simple driver problem. Good luck!

  • Why am I getting the message "project could not be prepared because an error occurred. (File already open with write permission)" when trying to share my imovie to media browser?

    Why am I getting the message "Project could not be prepared because an error occurred. (File already open with write permission.) when trying to
    share to the media browser?   I have done this many times before and never got this message.  This is very frustrating.  Can anyone help me?

    Hi
    Error -49 opWrErr  File already open with write permission
    Trash the preference files while application is NOT Running.
    Easiest way to find out if this is the problem is by:
    • Create a new User-Account
    • Log out of Your old one and into this
    • Re-try iMovie
    If it now works OK - then 99.9% the problem is iMovie pref. file that needs to be trashed.
    from Karsten Schlüter
    Some users notice on exporting larger projects from within iMovie that this operation is aborted with an 'error -49'
    This issue occurs only on MacOs machines using 10.7x
    try switching-off the Local Mobile Backup
    in Terminal copy/paste
    sudo tmutil disablelocal
    Re-launch Mac

  • After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group.  When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category.

    After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group.  When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category. A message pops up that says: "You can't add events or to do items to a calendar group. Select an individual calendar in the calendar list, then create your events or to do items." Any help here would be greatly appreciated! I would like to either retrieve the old information or find a way to add the category back in to start over. Thanks in advance!

  • Iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly when trying to share photos on Facebook.

    iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly when trying to share photos on Facebook.This only started a short while ago. I never used to have issues posting pictures before. Moreover, it also tells me there are issues with my library and prompts a "repair" of my iphoto library. This is scary - I have tons of pics and I'm not ready to lose any of them! I did change cameras a month ago, but it is the same make as I had before - a Canon powershot SX150 IS. Could it have anything to do with it? Could it be the fact that I keep so many pictures in iphoto (10,000 +)?

    How to backup? You should be doing regular backups - if you are not you will lose all of yoru files and photos sooner or later
    If you are not ready to lose all of your photos then you need to pruchase an external hard drive and start backing up immdeiately - for simplicity I recoommend a Time Capsule and Time Machine - but any backup is better than none - I do two daily
    For this simply make a temporary copy of your iPhoto library
    Will it fix the FB problem - hopefully

  • When trying to share new video states referencing media on camera

    when trying to share a new video states referencing media on camera what is the problem?

    I feel your pain. The Adobe forum software does some odd "stuff" with formatting, and once that happens, there seems to be nothing to do about it. I have been caught in that "trick bag," more times, than I can count.
    As for Encoding to WMV, Adobe programs, are not known to do a good job of this, and that is both PrE and PrPro. For years, many users recommended Windows Media Encoder, which was free from MS, and to use that, one would Export/Share to an intermediate file, then use WME to do the WMV Encode. MS discontinued the old WME, but one user (Neale, IIRC) found a replacement. Unfortunately, I do not recall the name, but it was something like MicroSoft Media Encoder Live, or similar. That user tested the new, replacement utility, and thought that it also did a much better job, than PrE/PrPro.
    Still, quality, and especially with motion (either subject, or camera) needs a good Bit-Rate to produce good results, however at the expense of large files. As all Encoders are not created equal, the best that one can do is to find one, that does a good job, and then experiment with the Bit-Rate to get highest quality at a manageable file size. This is the same "balancing act," that we all fight with.
    Good luck, and maybe those, with better memories, can come up with the name of the MS WMV Encoder.

  • I am having the problem when trying to take a panorama picture.   It may only take the first frame or doesn't even start at all when I press the shutter button. even though when i  hold the phone straight up and down, so that camera is at the top

    I am having the problem when trying to take a panorama picture. 
    It may only take the first frame or doesn't even start at all when I press the shutter button.
    even though when i  hold the phone straight up and down, so that camera is at the top on the back and the home button is on the bottom on the front.
    This problem is irritating me....?

    To take panorama
    - ensure that the panorama option is on
    - press the shutter button once
    - you will see a line with an arrow
    - move around in a circle  ( I keep the camera steady and turn myself around in a circle)
    - as you do this you will see the arrow moving across the screen as it captures pictures
    - at the end of the capture, you will be able to see your panorama picture
    I hope that this helps, do report back.

    How do i deactivate a device through icloud if the device is broken and i am unable to turn on find my iphone? Also i do not own a apple id as ive been using a family members due to problems when trying to make one?

    Hey tyjox,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you need to deactivate Find My iPhone on a device that does not work. You will need to work with the family member of the account the iPhone is registered with. I would recommend that you use this article to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    iCloud: Remove your device from Find My iPhone
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2702
    Remove an iOS device you no longer have
    If you no longer have the iOS device because you gave it away or sold it, you need to remotely erase it before you can remove it.
    Sign in to icloud.com/#find with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud).If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
    Click All Devices, then select the device.
    Click Erase [device], then enter your Apple ID password. Because the device isn’t lost, don’t enter a phone number or message.If the device is offline, the remote erase begins the next time it’s online. You’ll receive an email when the device is erased.
    When the device is erased, click Remove from Account.All your content is erased and someone else can now activate the device.

    I am using Lightroom 5 and am hapy about it, but recently I hav encountered a problem when trying to edit an image in another program, i.e. Elements. I used the clone tool, saved the result and went back to Lightroom to open the image there. I did find a second copy, but this is identic with the one I already had in Lightroom, and I can see noe result of the clone process.

    At the moment I would say it is uncertain whether Acrobat is completely ignoring the change, or whether the changes you are making aren't affecting the ink density. I have a suggestion for a test you could make to see which is the case.
    When editing in Photoshop just add a box or mark on the image, for your tests.
    - If this box does not appear in Acrobat, you know Acrobat is not seeing the edit
    - If this box does appear in Acrobat, you know the problem is that your tool for changing ink densities is not taking effect.
