Problem with cups [Moved]

Whenever I print a page using cups, it first prints out an extra page saying who printed it, what time, etc. It's a useful feature, but it wastes a lot of paper. Is there any way to disable it? Thanks
Edit: Sorry, wrong forum...

Nicholas,
I assume you're talking about accessing your printer from your browser by using the URL http://127.0.0.1:631/printers/
Understand you can't log in as Admin?
Do you have an appication named after your printer in the folder Home/Library/Printers ? If so, click on it and see if you can see your job.
If not, try downloading Printer Setup Repair from:
http://www.fixamacsoftware.com/software/index.html
Seems to do a great job in fixing problems, and might restore your ability to monitor your print jobs. I was only able to monitor and delete my print jobs through the CUPS interface on my browser until I ran Printer Setup Repair. After that, I was able to use the application mentioned in my first paragraph to do the monitoring (and it works great!)
Hope this helps!
Bob

Problems with CUPS. Printer is ok, but doesn't print anything...

Hi 2 all!
So, I have a problem with my printer. Yesterday I've installed my EPSON Stylus CX3200, everything was ok, local printing, samba sharing etc. This morning I've tried to print some tabs with TUX Guitar, the job was sent but nothing was printed. From CUPS administration page on localhost:631 I've tried to print a test page, but there's only an error message:
Unsupported format 'application/postscript'!
Reinstalling printer hasn't helped at all, the error persists. I'll be happy to listen your ideas... and sorry for my poor english.

pacman -S ghostscript
that should fix your problem.
p.s. restart your printer spooler after that!

Magic mouse has a problem with its moving..

Dear guys,
Has anyone had a problem with magic mouse that it does click and scroll up/down but the mouse is impossible to move a cursor. Should you have any ideas, please get me out of this problem.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hello:
It may help, and cannot hurt:
1. Reset the PRAM
2. Reset the SMC.

Problems with cups

My printer (Epson Stylus Color 460) worked a few days ago. Now wen I try to print something, knotify shows an error:
A print error occurred. Error message received from system:
cupsdoprint -P 'Epson' -J '' -H 'localhost:631' -U 'root' -o ' copies=1 orientation-requested=3' '/tmp/kde-piotrek/kpdfh5Qzec.ps' : execution failed with message:

client-error-document-format-not-supported
Generally an error here is "client-error-document-format-not-supported ".
I tried to hash and unhash the line:
application/octet-stream
in /etc/cups/mime.types and /etc/cups/mime.convs. I googled it could help, but not in my case.
I can print some files using cupsdoprint or lp without -o argument. But I cannot print any odt or pdf files. Only plain text.
The only error that shows up in cups logs is:
Unable to set ACLs on root certificate "/var/run/cups/certs/0" - Operation not supported
I googled all the net, and I didn't find a solution, so I really count on you guys.

SP10 - multiple approver problem with CUP

We have SP10 (patch 1) in our development system and cannot move forward to production because of a real show stopper. I have currently reported this to SAP thru an OSS message (and it is in development) but would like to know if anyone else is having this issue with SP10. (this happened even before applying patch 1)
We have multiple approvers when creating NEW users or CHANGING users in CUP. We have it configured to allow just one of the approvers to approve before going on to the next stage. Since we put in SP10, CUP is requiring ALL approvers to approve the request before going on to the next stage. We get the following message when one of the approvers approve the request: Request no: 5020. is approved, pending for other Approvers.
I've seen this reported for UAR and SOD but not for CUP. In fact, there is a fix for UAR in Patch 1 of SP10. I applied this patch but it hasn't fixed the CUP issue. I also don't have the issue when rejecting a CUP request, or when approving it through the configuration --> Request --> Administration screen (what I consider the Back-door since only security administrators get the configuration area).
Thanks for your input.
Peggy

Christian,
I totally agree with you.
The good news is.... We installed SP11.1 and the multiple approver problem is fixed.
We have decided to leave our production system at SP8 until this system settles down a bit. Of course, this means we can't use many of the new fixes and features (such as UAR). We use our sandbox system to apply new support packs and do very rigorous testing. And our DEV system is at SP8 too.
Good Luck.
Peggy

Problem with exporting moving still images

Hello.
I would like to create a sequence where the movie is made of still images (photos in .PSD format, reminiscent of a old-fashioned Polaroid photos) with added motion.
Now the problem is that after rendering and exporting (DV format, both interlaced and progressive) these moving-images somehow bounce or leap on the edges, especially inner white edge. It doesn't matter if I turn on or off the "optimize stills" option.
I attached short sample but it shows what I mean.
The file is 1MiB, 5sec, progressive, compressed with XviD with constant quantizer=2, resized to 640x480.
But all above modifications of exported file do not matter what so ever. It's the same with original export.
What shoud I do to improve fluency and smoothness of the movie?
I use Premiere Pro 1.5.

Hi,
I'm a newbee...brand new at learning premiere pro cs3....so I should not give you advice but others here are very very good at this stuff. I like the effect of your sample video. When I first looked at it I thought only the bottom edge was slightly jittery, but I can now see that the entire image inside the white border does jump...the jittery-ness is the vertical (not horizontal) movement of the image about 1 or 2 pixels up and down as it is interpolated at certain points in time. The larger the screensize of the image the more noticeable it is.
I found this help file about keyframes and animation and interpolation...
Change transition settings
In the Timeline panel, click a transition to select it.
In the Effect Controls panel, adjust settings:
Edge selectors
Change the orientation or direction of the transition. Click an Edge selector arrow on the transition’s thumbnail. For example, the Barn Doors transition can be oriented vertically or horizontally. A transition doesn’t have Edge selectors if it has one orientation or if orientation isn’t applicable.
Start and End sliders
Set the percentage of the transition that is complete at the start and end of the transition. Hold down the Shift key to move the start and end sliders together.
Show Actual Sources
Displays the starting and ending frames of the clips.
Border Width
Adjusts the width of the optional border on the transition. The default Border is None. Some transitions do not have borders.
Border Color
Specifies the color of the transition’s border. Double‑click the color swatch or use the eyedropper to choose the color.
Reverse
Plays the transition backward. For example, the Clock Wipe transition plays counterclockwise.
Anti‑Aliasing Quality
Adjusts the smoothness of the transition’s edges.
Custom
Changes settings specific to the transition. Most transitions don’t have custom settings.
Maybe the anti-aliasing quality adjustment will help?
I put your sample clip into VirtualDub and tried a filter called "Field Bob" (compensates for field jumping in field- split video by applying bob-deinterlacing techniques). In the filter setting I tried "smooth" for both even and odd fields. It didn't really help.

[SOLVED] Problem With Cups and Hp printer.

I am new to using cups. I usually have my operating system do everything for me. Arch seems to be a lot more tricky though.
I have an HP Deskjet 6980 printer. I have been able to successfully use it with Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora. I noticed that Arch came with HP Device Manager. This is the same program I used to add my printer to fedora. I decided to use this. During the process of adding my printer, it recognized it and when I pressed add printer, it said please restart CUPS and try again. I opened up system monitor and killed the cups process. I then tried to run the installer again and I got the same error. Then I tried to load up the cups interface on firefox but it failed to. I think I need to restart cups but I do not know how.

Nevermind. I figured it out. My printer now works. Thanks for telling me how to restart cups.
Could you possibly post how you solved it so others reading this thread can benefit from it?

Problem with CUPS and Canceling jobs

I am using OS 10.3.9 on a 1.42 MDD PowerMac
I am having a problem trying to cancel Jobs using the CUPS interface. When I select "Cancel" I get an error "client-error-forbidden".
I have tried logging in as Root but the same error occurs.
I have run "CacheOut" and deleted all cache thinking that it would solve my problem.
I can't seem to find any answers anywhere.
I have 1 fax job and 1 print job that I would like to remove from the Que.
If I knew where these files were I would manually delete them, but I cannot find them, except in the CUPS interface
I was thinking of installing CUPS 1.2b2, as it has more features and maybe it would solve my problem.
Are there any problems that I should know about before installing this software. If I install it I can't go back to my original CUPS without re-installing the system.
Thanks,

Problem with Contacts for 6500 slide

I recently bought a Nokia 6500 slide and i`m very pleased, except one thing.
I used to have some other phones, and all my contacts were on the memory of that phone (not on the SIM).
For me to have my contacts on the 6500 slide, i had to move all those contacts on the sim, then insert the sim into the 6500 slide and move them again from there to the phone memory (i hate having my contacts on the sim couse i can't add any aditional info).
Ok, so.. after i moved all my contacts to the phone memory, i saw that from about 200 contacts, i only have about 20. At first i thought "ok, there was a problem with the moving process and i lost them all..." I was just about getting over this, when I realized that those numbers that I lost are still in there, but i can't see them.
If I manualy enter a number of a contact that don't show in my Contacts List, when it dials, the number appears on the screen. Same if that contact calls me. I can't see them in the Contact List tho.
It's like there are hidden or something..
I tried changing the settings so that i can see only the contacts in the SIM (in which case, none apear), only in the phone (only those 20 or so appear) or showing both (still, only 20 or so appear).
The contacts are not in the SIM couse i tried putting the sim back in the old phone, and it's empty.
They must be somewhere in the phone. Is there a hidden setting that i can find, that allows me to see those contacts that I thought I lost? It's very annoying to wait till someone calls me so I can add his number again in the phonebook
To be more specific, let me give an example.
Let's say I had contact "John" with the number "12345678". Now I can't see it anymore.
If i dial 12345678 and then hit "Call", it apears like "Calling John"
If John calls me, it apears like "John" on the screen.
If i try to add John to the phone book I get a message like "A name is already entered for that number"
It's like... all the contacts are already there, but I can't see them
Can someone help me please... I`m really desperate

Hello and welcome to the forums;
First, you mention the error references a SIM card, however your profile says you have a Sprint device. A small problem there, and I would like to clear up any confusion as which device you have: a Sprint CDMA device, or one with a SIM card.
Second, have you tried restarting your device? Hold down the power button and move the ringer mute switch next to it back and forth 3 times, then wait 4-5 seconds for the device to restart by itself.
Try this, and let us know what happens.

Any problem with wandering breakpoints?

Does anyone have a problem with wandering/moving breakpoints? Let's say I set some break points at various places, then exit JDeveloper. When I restart, some of my breakpoints are at the same place, but some have wandered or moved a line or so. I might find breakpoints set at the comment line adjacent to where I actually set the breakpoint. Now I know I never set a breakpoint on a comment line! Has anyone else observed this behavior?
Mark Hayworth
Windows 98
Oracle9i JDeveloper (build 9.0.2.829)

Hello
One thing that I realize is, that breakpoints and execution bars loose their correspondence to the executed code, if changes are made to the source code during execution. Look at the following code snippet for an example:
40 // just a comment
41
42 while (true){
43 if (false)
44 System.out.println("not executed");
45 } // end while
- Assuming, the breakpoint is on line 44, that is, it will never be executed.
- Now start the program, which will hang in the endless loop.
- While running the code remove line 40. The code will now look like the following:
40
41 while (true){
42 if (false)
43 System.out.println("not executed");
43 } // end while
- JDeveloper corrects the Breakpoint to line 43.
- Now the virtual machine stops! Line 43 is the "if" statement in the executed code.
That's the situation now:
IDE: Breakpoint on "43 System.out.println("not executed");"
JVM: Breakpoint on "43 if (false)"
Changing the source while running the code has destroyed the correspondence from breakpoint to running code.
I'd suggest the following enhancement to JDeveloper:
JDeveloper should try to keep track of the changes made on the source code while executing code (at least inserts and deletes should be monitored) and try to adjust breakpoints and execution-bars so they match from executed code to modified source code. Of course this is only possible to some extent, but inserts and deletes should be possible. There are other IDEs which just do that.

Wordpress: strange problem with localization

Hi, I'm using Wordpress on both a G5 and a MBP (the former with serverlogistic MySQL 4.x version, the latter with a MySQL 5.x official installation). In most cases, I'm using the italian language file. Suddenly, Wordpress doesn't regognize localization.
This happens on both my Macs, with any version of WP (2.1 to 2.3), previously or freshly installed. The same sites, booting from Tiger, are in italian as expected.
A clean install of Leopard didn't solve the problem. Permissions seem to be ok, but I'm having often problems with folders moved to Sites folder (which are sometimes not accessible via web browser).
Any clue? Permissions? Global variables handled by php5/apache2 different form Tiger? Something else?

I apparently found where the problem was. I'm not able to explain the details, but the answer is here (in italian):
http://www.wordpress-it.it/forum/topic/5370
as far as I understood, you have to change line 116 of file wp-includes/gettext.php from:
$magic = $this->readint();
to
$magic = $this->readint() & 0xFFFFFFFF;
This seem to be a php5 bug (?). Here is (probably) something about it:
https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=10565
I don't even know what I'm talking about... I'm not such an expert in php. But it works...
(with a different php5 installation on Tiger/Apache 1.x I hadn't this problem, anyway)

I just moved my itunes library from a win 7 computer to a win 8.1 computer. Getting an error message "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly. Can't play CDs or get audio file from web!

I get an error message that says "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly. I don't know where to look for or fix the audio configuration on the win 8 computer. As far as I can tell the iTunes configuration looks the same as on the other computers in the house. At this point I don't dare plug my ipod touch into the Win 8 computer for fear it will get messed up.

I have the same problem and I know that it is due to my PCI Audio driver not being compatible with WIndows 8.1.
iTunes isn't the only program that can't direct sound to the built-in speakers anymore. The obvious solution would be to update the drivers, but unfortunately Dell does not provide an updated driver for my model, so I am stuck with that.
However, saying that, only my laptop speakers are affected by this. I can use sound fine on applications where I can choose the output device and direct sound to the head phones, but for some reason iTunes does not let you choose the audio device manually.
To listen to music I imported the iTunes Library in Windows Media Player and changed the audio output using the following instructions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/c00d11ba
However, I would also like to rent movie's from iTunes,
Would be great if iTunes would let you choose the output device, too, like most other applications using sound from Skype to Windows Media Player,...

Interlace problems with moving objects using iDVD

I had an MP4 file (created by a 3rd party) from a Hi-8 analog tape which has some interlace artifacts on moving images (left image of boy) but not too bad. When the MP4 files was imported into iMovie 11 the interlace artifacts smoothed somewhat - that was OK (right image of boy). The camera was still and the boy was moving. Vertical lines on stationary objects are OK in all images. These are screen captures from the Mac of the mp4 played through quicktime and the same file imported into iMovie 11 and played. I paused both to take the screen capture.
The completed project in iMovie 11 looked OK when previewed prior to rendering. These are 20 year old videos so my expections were being met.   I rendered the project with iDVD to the hard drive first and then to a DVD with the same poor imaging result on the moving object. I am using a new Macbook Pro I bought in early January which came with iMovie 11 and iDVD Ver 7.1.2 (1158). Running Mac OS X 10.7.3 Macbook Pro 2.3 Ghz Corei7   8GB 1333 Mhz DDR3.
I couldn't screen capture from the MAC DVD player screen to illustrate the poor result (got a checkerboard screen) so I took a photo of the screen and imported that (below). The moving boy on the left is from an iMovie 11 screen capture, the image on the right is the moving boy from the rendered DVD I paused on the Mac (and took a pic of).
Below a close up of the poorly rendered moving boy viewed on the resultant DVD. This translates into a horrible rendition of any quick moving object. It happens with any moving image - i.e. a pan across a room with straight vertical lines like edges of a wall will show as serrated and poorly rendered edge. I used a trial version of the Daniusoft DVD creator with the same result! I am at a loss on how to resolve this issue. Any thoughts out there??
I had previously used Pinnacle Studios on my old XP PC which worked great on other tape's Mpeg files and created great DVD's (never had an interlace problem) ... until my computer died ..... so I figured Apple and associated software should be at least equal if not a superior product.   Now I'm not too sure!

Just moved my email from entourage to Mail. Having real problems with getting my signatures to work properly. When adding in a small company logo, windows computers only receive signature as an attachment. Am sending email as Rich Text. Any ideas on a fix

Just moved my email from Entourage to Mail. Having real problems with getting my signatures to work properly despite sending email as Rich Text.
When adding in a small company logo to the signature, PC's / windows computers only receive signature and logo as attachments.
I've tried all possible fixes I can find including getting a PC user to format the logo but no joy. Has anyone experienced this and any ideas on a fix gratefully received.

Send it as html so the signature is an image source URL

I'm having a problem with downloading multiple app updates and moving songs between iTunes and my external hard drive.

I'm having two problems with iTunes, but I'm not sure if they're related issues. First, when I try to click "Download All Updates" for apps, only one update will download and I will get successive error messages for all of the other updates. However, if I click update for each individual app, they download fine. Why am I not able to download all app updates simultaneously now.
My second issue is that I cannot move songs from iTunes to my external hard drive or vice versa. When I drag the files, the blue plus sign appears, but the file does not appear where I moved it to.
Both issues have been occuring for about month. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unchecked. This seems to help with partial downloads...
The other issue doesn't ring any bells.
