Printer Not Showing In List Directory

I've added two new printers and the issue is they are not in the printer list but if you UNC directly to it you can add it that way.
The troubleshooting I've done it
Restart the print spooler
Checked the permissions
Any ideas?

Shared printer not showing in list

My husband and I both have mac g4's, connected over usb network. We both recently updated to 10.48. The printer is connected to usb hub on with his printer. Everything was fine til we updated operating systems. Now the printer stopped showing in my printer listing. It prints when connected directly to either computer. Did everything manual and books said about printer sharing. Both downloaded latest drivers. It's an HP Photosmart 3200.
Thanks!

Hi Kathy,
Generally the updates affect the permissions on files, so that is why the Repair Disk Permissions can resolve printing problems.
Given that you are using TCP/IP to connect to each other, then you would be using the same protocol to view and connect to the shared printer. What you can do next is open the CUPS printer page of your computer to see if the shared printer is visible. Do the following;
1. Open your Internet browser, such as Safari.
2. For the address, type
http://127.0.0.1:631/printers
and hit Enter.
This should show the printers installed on your computer and the printers shared on his Mac (Tamo). If it doesn't show his shared printer, type the following;
http://ipaddress:631/printers/sharename
Note that you need to replace ip_address with the IP address of your husbands Mac (Tamo) and 'shared_printer' with the shared name of the printer. So the address should look something like this;
http://192.168.44.47:631/printers/HP3200
If you are not sure of the shared name you can check this by clicking on Network Preferences > Print & Fax > Sharing.
Doing the above in the browser should make the CUPS page for the shared HP appear. If it does then we are a step closer in working this out.
Let me know how you go...
Regards,
Paul

Supported Printer not showing in list of drivers after software update

Hi,
I'm trying to install a supported printer HP LaserJet M1132 (M1130 Series) to my Mac Book Pro Retina (Mavericks) both directly using USB and on a network connected to a Windows XP Server.
I started by performing a software update and downloaded an infinite list of HP Drivers, excluding mine apparently.
I checked here: OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download and it is supported (this procedure is also supported on the HP website)
Network Installation:
1. Software Update
2. System Preferences
3. +
4. workgroup > server-pc > HPLaserJetM1132 (already installed an working on the XP server)
5. Use: Choose a Driver...
6. Select Software
7. DEAD END mine is not listed (tried also Generic Post Script and Generic PCL)
I also added the ADVANCED button and tried connecting directly using SMB and it works, except that I don't find the driver.
USB Installation:
1. Software Update
2. System Preferences
3. +
4. Default
5. Use: Choose a Driver...
6. Select Software
7. DEAD END
My question is, is there something else I should be doing? Do you know of a different driver that matches? Should I be posting this on an HP forum instead?
Cheers,
William.

I finally managed to print from Mac OSX Mavericks on an HP LaserJet Pro M1132 MFP connected to a Windows XP Server.
Printing on the M1132 Via USB
1. Perform Software Update. If you're lucky, your printer driver will be there.
2. Connect the printer to your Mac.
3. If everything is OK, your printing should be enabled
4. If your driver is not available, try this link: HP Printer Drivers v.2.16.1 for OS X
5. If you get the message "The disk inserted is not readable by this computer" you need to
repair your disk permissions, in which case follow these steps:
1. Open Finder.
2. Select Apps.
3. Search for Disk Utility and open it.
4. Select the drive the OS is installed on.
5. Click Repair Disk Permissions.
Printing on the M1132 via network with printer connected to a Win XP Computer
On Windows XP:
1. Install the printer using the supplied driver or download one from the supplier website.
2. From Start > Printers and Faxes, right click on the printer and share. Choose a short name (ideally less than 13 characters for your printer. E.g. in my case it's M1132)
3. Make sure that you know this computer's IP address. (Ideally it is a static IP and not assigned via DHCP)
4. Install LPD. On Win XP, this is done by going to Control Panel, Add Remove Programs, Windows Components and check "Other Network File and Print Services"
On Mac:
1. Perform Software Update.
2. Go to System Preferences and then Printers and Scanners
3. Click on the +, and "Add Printer or Scanner"
4. Click on "Advanced" If you don't have one, right click and customise your toolbar.
5. In Advanced, choose "LPD/LPR" for Type and type in your URL to the printer.
E.g. lpd://192.168.1.50/M1132
6. Choose a name
7. For Use: "Select Software" and choose your driver. If you cannot see your driver, download the latest (for HP) from here: HP Printer Drivers v.2.16.1 for OS X

Adding shared printers? Network printer not showing up in list

I have a network printer not showing up in the Bonjour Printer Wizard. There is not a place to add a printer to this list. Does my network printer need to be installed under the Windows side as well, or can I share it using Bonjour? I'm confused as to how the shared printer program works. Also, my Adobe "print to pdf" option shows up as a printer, but how do I change the file destination location? It doesn't give me an option to change the "saved to" location. I am using these printers through Parallels in AutoCad, and that should be the only reason I will need to share printers. But I am in AutoCad a good deal of time, so I need to know how to quickly print my drawings.

Welcome to the forums!
You don't say if you installed after downloading the Printer you deleted, but I suspect it's one not showing, and that you need to reinstall.

User Extension not showing in Corporate Directory on

I have a User whose name shows in the Corporate Directory, however his Extension not showing in Corporate Directory and unlike all other users who have a telephone Icon next to their name, his just has like a keypad icon.
Where do I start to troubleshoot this?

When I view the "End User" under User Management that User has no Phone listed for that users. I tried to find a way to manually change it, but I don't think I can because we are set to sync with AD.
So I'm thinking that the error may be in AD? What do you think?

Captions Not Showing in List View Though They are There

Ever since I've been using Aperture I've had issues with Captions not showing in List View. The caption is there and shows in the Info Panel but does not show in the List View. I close Aperture, reopen, and it appears in List View. Frustrating when trying to caption thousands of images. You think the image has no caption and when you add a caption it doubles up on what is already there, but could not been seen, and a mess is born. Any one else have this issue? I see it in every Library I create whether on my field laptop or my main desktop Library. Screen shot attached of caption showing in Info pane but not in list view.

Happens all the time. The problem has been there for as long as I can remember, and shows itself in Keywords as well as Captions, maybe others. And yes, it is a major annoyance, and it is a bug IMO. You've found the same workaround I have, namely to restart Aperture.
If you haven't already done so, submit a bug report using Aperture Feedback to add your voice to the list.

Acrobat Pro "save as" function in the file menu does not show the current directory of the file

I have installed CC but Acrobat Pro gives me headaches.
The "save as" function in the file menu does not show the current directory of the file but something I have worked on in the past.
It forces me to navigates through my hard disk for this very straightforward thing in normal conditions. I precise: Acrobat is the only software reacting like that.
I use Windows7 professional 64bits.

I use what seems to be the latest version available on the Cloud:
To illustrate my point, I open a directory with explorer and double-click on the only PDF in there:
So here it is, open:
When I do a "Save as", it takes me to a totally different place on the disk!
Very annoying...
Thanks for your time!

My playlists show how many titles are in the playlist but does not show the list of titles

my playlists show how many titles are in the playlist but does not show the list of titles. Is there a setting that I hit by mistake to hide the content?

Perhaps you have made one column extra wide and the window isn't currently showing the Name column. Try resizing columns, turning off those that you don't need, or scrolling sideways.

Onlive TV listing does not show HD listing for series when I try to create a recording

It happened now already several times the the "Online TV Listing" does not show HD listing for series when I try to create a recording. Instead, it will show two series options in SD. Is this to make people use less bandwidth?
Here is what I am doing:
I go to this link https://www.verizon.com/fiostv/myservices/members/fiostv.aspx
Then to ...........DVR Manger
select ...........Record A Show
I type search e.g. Nathan for You
I click on ........Search
and I select ......Click here to Show Details
Then I get to chose from 2 (the same) SD channels.
Nathan for You
190 Comedy Central
Tue, Jul 29 10:30 PM
Record Show Record Series
Nathan for You
190 Comedy Central
Tue, Aug 05 10:30 PM
Record Show Record Series
But there is the same on channel 690 HD!
This happens not only to this particular channel!
I remember it used to show also the HD channels.
The only way to schedule in HD is to find the listing in the TV schedule, at the right time and there you will get the
correct choices for both SD & HD.
Can this be fixed?
Thanks!

On the right click on HD under video quality to filter it.

When bookmarking it does not show the list of folders that I have in bookmarks to place new bookmark into. I reset firefox

When bookmarking it does not show the list of folders that I have in bookmarks to place new bookmark into. I reset firefox and still have the bookmarks from the bookmark tab, Just bookmarking new ones the folders do not appear to place new bookmarks in, only a few folders show

Click the arrow at the far right (outside) of the Folder field (i.e. not the one in the Folder field) in the "Edit This Bookmark" window to access the complete folder list.<br />
This full folder list also opens if you click the drop marker in the Folder field and click the "Choose..." item.<br />
If folders in the list aren't expanded then look for a possibly faint arrow icon to expand/open the folders.

Bonjour printer not showing up in Printer List

I am having trouble adding a bonjour printer (HP PSC 1610). The printer is not showing up in the list of printers under System Preferences > Print & Fax. I was able to add the printer by clicking on the "+" sign. It found the bonjour printer and I clicked "Add." Everything seemed fine, but the printer is not showing up in the list of available printers.
When I'm in Printer Setup Utility, the Printer shows up when I click View > Show Printer List. I just can't select it when I'm in an application and trying to print.
I can print to the printer from my G5 which still has OS 10.3.9.
MacBook Pro 1.83 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I think the reason you haven't got responses is that no one has experience with that. Here are some generic troubleshooting steps to try, one at a time:
Repair permissions (Disk Utility).
Delete Print Prefs - search for (File>Find) files that start with com.apple.print and delete them all and reboot.
Reset Printing System (new in Tiger) - In Printer Setup, click this menu item found just above Quit Printer Setup.
If there is a downloadable Combination Updater from Apple, use it to re-Update OS X.
Try Printer Setup Repair from www.fixamac.net.
Use a Disk Utility like Disk Warrior to repair the HD.

Printer Not Showing Up In Add List again.

I made a mistake and accidently deleted my printer from the Printer List (I was removing other printers). It doesn't show up when I try to add it again.
Here is what I have done:
1) Removed the com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs.plist and com.apple.print.PrintCenter.plist
2) Downloaded the latest drives from the HP site (It's an HP Officejet Pro K550)
3) Logged out/Restarted (several times)
A funny thing has also occurred.
The drop down that usually holds the printers that can be added has looks like this:
AppleTalk
Bluetooth
Windows Printing
HP IP Printing
The blanks above are present. There are 3 blanks above the HP IP Printing and one blank below.
The blanks can be selected but not added (I thought it might have been a naming conflict and the printer was just not listing).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.

My printer not showing in printer list.

My Printer is not in the printer list when trying to print a pdf file from Adobe reader. The printer works OK from other apps.

You need an AirPrint compatible printer to be able to print directly from iOS devices, but unfortunately, your Canon ip2000 is not on the list of compatible devices. See this Apple support document for more details:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
A possible workaround that might work is to try an App like Print Central on the iPad and iPhone. This will allow the iOS devices to print to most printers. But, there is no way to guarantee that it will work with your printer.
