Saving file as PDF on Desktop I get notice "The Printer Name is invalid" How do I get a file to save as PDF?

Trouble saving a large 93 page script Final Draft to a PDF file on Desktop. I get notice "The printer name is invalid"
What to do?

I don't think PDF Pack is connected to this in any way. It won't be part of the process.

All screens jump including the desktop screen when using the pad and pointer. How do I stop this?

Jump around. Perhaps you could elaborate - what seems to be moving around, and under what conditions? Even better if you could include pics or movies of this behavior.

Saving file as "Save as"......in my external hard drive!

It seems I am either a novice or there is something wrong with my computer or external hard drive. I am trying to save a pages file that I created on pages on macbook pro 13' to my external portable hard drive and i can't, it says that the file canot be saved, then i used another computer and it did work just perfect. Then I tried the same thing but this time with a flash drive "pen drive" and it work just perfect. Is it because it is not compatible with it? or I am doing something wrong, can someone please show me hot to save files on pages to an external hard drive.
Thanks in advance.....

Make sure you have a backup of everything you want to keep on your External HD!
You will see a list of volumes on the left side of *Disk Utility.*
Select the external harddrive. The upper name is the actual Hard Drive, under it is the name of any partition/s on that HD. Choose the upper name.
Choose the Erase button at the top of the right hand side of the window.
+Volume Format: Mac OS Extended (Journaled) > give it a sensible name > Erase…+
If you want to install OSX on it and make it bootable, go to the Partition button:
+Volume Scheme > 1 Partition > Options… > check GUID Partition Table > OK > Apply+
NB This will format it to work on the Mac, but PCs will be unable to read it. If you want to move between Macs and PCs you will need to format it as FAT32 and possibly multiple partition it as FAT32 has limits on volume size.

Print from Windows desktop via network, when the printer was first set up on a Mac

My new printer works fine from my Mac mini. It is set up on my local network through a BT hub router, wirelessly, Bonjour enabled.When I try to set it up in addition to work from a Windows 8.1 desktop, the printer is recognised and the print-job goes to the print queue but then vanishes from the queue without any printing having started.I have tried using Wireless Direct for the Windows computer but it doesn't seem to help.I will now uninstall and re-install the Officejet on the 8.1 using the disc and see if that helps.I understand (is this right?) that enabling printer sharing doesn't help, as there are two different OS (Mac and MS).Any help would be very welcome.I had before another HP printer (Photosmart B110a) for the windows 8.1 (and on the Mac) and it never seemed properly installed on the Windows computer either. But it did print (but not scan etc.)

This problem is a result of a limitation in Windows 9x regarding the size of an image that you can send to the printer. The problem does not occur on Windows 2000/NT. This problem appeared with the increased color options of LabVIEW 6.0 on which the BB1.2 is based.Although it is not immediately obvious, your video driver and settings play a role in printing.
1. Try adjusting the color palette your driver uses (i.e., 256 color, high olor, true color). The error may occur only in one of these modes. Also, change the resolution (number of pixels) to represent the Screen Area; e.g., change from a 1024 x 768 display to an 800 x 600 pixel display.
2.Certain video drivers also support "acceleration" modes. Using a non-accelerated mode often eliminates the error. For
Windows 95/98, right-click on your My Computer icon and select "Properties" from the pop-up
menu. On the Performance tab, click the Graphics button and change the Hardware Acceleration (e.g., if it is set to "Full", lower the setting a notch or two); for Windows 2000/NT, right-click on your Desktop and select "Properties" from the pop-up menu. On the Settings tab, click the Advanced button and go to
Troubleshooting.
3.In Windows, the standard VGA driver provided by the operating system is very stable. Try using this driver in place of the specific one written for your video hardware. If the error is eliminated, there is likely a problem with your vendor-provided video driver.
4.These errors are most often fixed with the latest
video/printer driver. Be sure to contact your hardware manufacturer and install the latest driver. An easy way to determine if your error is "driver-related" is to move your code to another machine (and hopefully a different set of drivers) and see if th
e error persists. If the problem is printer related, try another printer.
5.Make sure there are at least 100M avalible space in your C: drive. If not, set the virtual memory to the other drive which has larger available space.

When trying to install Firefox 3.6.11, after extraction, I get the message "The directory name is invalid", and the installation won't continue (Windows Vista Home Basic 6.0).

That's about it.

I downloaded a program from Roboform called rfwipeout.exe. I backed up my passwords, identities, etc and completely removed all traces of roboform. This did not help. When I re-installed the roboform new release it got the same message that it thinks I am using version 3.6 of Firefox instead of 11.0. There must be some setting in the Firefox folders that never gets changed when you update to a new version.
Soon after that I ran a backup of Firefox profiles identities, etc using MOZ BACKUP. I had never noticed this until then but the message asks if I want to backup Mozilla Firefox 3.6. Since 2 completely different programs refer to my installation as 3.6 there must be something wrong in one of the Firefox files.

I'm using my Verizon Jetpack 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MHS291L to wirelessly connect my printer to my desktop and tablet will the printer use my monthly data to print/recieve info from my computer/tablet

I know a normal wireless router would allow me to connect my printer to my desktop and tablet but will using my Verizon Jetpack® 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MHS291L as a access point incur data usage each month?

Hello Heath76, you pose an excellent question! Yes, if the Jetpack is used as an access point for any of the devices listed it will incur data usage.

As posted earlier, you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and clicking on the Find your Apple ID on the bottom right. If you are able to find the ID, you can then reset the password here:https://iforgot.apple.com/, allowing you to access your iCloud account again.

I cannot print from Websites or my college online course. Tries to save files to desktop as an .xps document but nothing happens and I get an error message that print command did not work. Have reinstalled firefox and adobe, no help. Any suggestions?

Cannot print anything from internet using Firefox as browser. Please advise. I have to use Firefox for internet college courses, cannot print my assignments. I do not have this problem on Mac or using Internet Explorer. Only happens when using Firefox. When I select print a message comes up to save information to desktop as .xps file. Select save, sometimes it is on the desktop but I cannot open the file or it simply does not save file and get an error message that print command failed. What is happening?

{Ctrl + P} and select your printer in the Printer - Name box near the top of that window.

Profile storage space - Mozilla saved files location

Currently I have user with a 'Profile Storage Space ' of 30000kb on the C:Drive.. The C:Drive itself has about 100gb free but the user can't have his profile size increased..
Just to let you guys know, any personal/unshared files would be saved onto his personal F:drive with 100gb free space..
The issues my user is having when installing and using Firefox it installs fine as it saves onto his C:Drive but then when you launch Firefox it saves some cache settings etc in C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Mozilla (which is part of his profile space) and hence he gets a message your Profile Space has exceeded and delete items or else you can't logout..
So I delete this folder, run firefox again and it again imports 'something' and back to the same issue..
How can I map it so it saves this info into another location, maybe his F:Drive?
All help much appreciated..

How do I get Printer Name saved in a .rpt?

I want to know how to get the name of the printer saved in a .rpt file. Unfortunately PrintOptions.PrinterName [1] property returns an empty string if the printer isn't configured locally. How do I get the printer name (or some sort of printer identifier) without the printer being configured locally yet?
current code:
reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.PrintOutputController.GetPrintOptions().PrinterName

Hi Cameron,
I spent a bunch of time getting all of the options and discovered until the reports are saved with the current version, I'm on SP 3, getting the printer name doesn't work but there are variations.
If the No Printer option is checked then CR users the default printer to get a few options. Problem is there is no API to get the No Printer checked box....
If Dissociate.. is/was checked on at any time CR may also not get the printer it was designed against.
As you may have seen we have updated the Printer options in CR 2008 to make them work as close as we can as they did in CR XI R2 and previous versions. There are still outstanding issues but usually ways to work around them.
Unfortunately until you update the reports to current version I have not been able to get the name if No Printer is not checked on. If it is we use the Default printer Margins, depending on the patch level you are on.
Still testing and will have to discuss with various resources to get more info.
Thank you
Don

I have a tool bar with "file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, yahoo, tools, & help" at the topp of may FIREFOX, How do it get these moved to a different line?how do I move

The listed features "file...help" were in different places on a prior version of Firefox. About three weeks ago, I tried to get some updates to Firefox. A few days later I noticed the changes were made. How and why that happened, I don't know.

Can you attach a screenshot?

You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden.<br />
You can hide the Menu bar via View > Toolbars, also accessible via Firefox > Options.<br />

How do I get to the 'Print Mode Choice Box' in the Apple provided software for a Canon Pixma IP6210D Series printer?

I downloaded the Apple software for my Pixma, IP6210D series printer. There is no 'Color Matching', option or 'print options', pop up menu available. According to the instructional book that came with the printer - the Mac how-to section those options should be available.
In the 'Page Setup', dialog box the 'OK' button is not listed. The two choices are cancel and print.
How on earth do I get to the 'Print Options', box?
Thank you for your help.

Sounds like you have the print dialog minimised, as shown.
If you click the triangle next to the printer name, this will expand the print dialog and from this view you can see all the menu options as mentioned in the guide.
