See Bonjour Printer on Intel Macs; see printer but can't set-up/print on G4

I have an HP Laserjet connected to the usb port of my airport extreme. Using the Print & Fax preference set up and printing are fine on my Macbook Pro running 10.5.8 and on my iMac running 10.6.6. However when I use the same process on my iMac G4 (also running 10.5.8) when I go to add the printer it shows up as it does for the other computers (as HP Laser Jet 3030 Bonjour) but when I select it the wheel spins but the printer is never 'retrieved' - so I can't add it. Any clues - the only difference that I can see is that the two computers that work are Intel Macs but I see in the forums that people appear to be using bonjour printers with PPCs as well. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

I should add the the AEBS is the older snow cone (b/g).

Restart the router. If there's no change, see below.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Take it to an Apple Genius Bar to be checked out. It will either be the battery or the Logic board (not sure the charging circuit is a separate part. If it is then it mya be just that part).
If logic board just use it plugged in as for the cost of changing out the logic board you can buy a new system.

Well first, I must say "Yikes!!!"   I didn't know anyone still used Word Perfect.   That's an old school word processor right there... haha.
Okay, in all seriousnous, when saving your files in Word Perfect, use the Save As feature, and select a different format.   Word Perfect's format is likely not going to be opened by any of the popular word processing software.   I would try saving the document as RTF (rich text format), which is a universal standard across word processors.   This way, you can open the document on your Mac, or any other machine.
Now, I'm also assuming that you have a word processor installed on your Mac.   Right?   Maybe Word? Maybe Pages?   If you don't have a word processor, you'll need to get one.   If you don't want to spend the $10 on Pages, consider downloading Open Office (http://www.openoffice.org/download/).   This will give you a free word processor that you can use on your Mac.

I can see photos but can't download them because the original is "unavailable". What does that mean ?

I was downloading back some photos from Revel after having lost the originals from the hard drive they were stored on (along with that drive).
I was using the MacOS app and things were going fine, but strangely one library doesn't let me do that. So I tried to download a single file and I got an error message saying that the original file wasn't available. Which seems strange as I can see the picture. And in good definition, too. Exporting at current resolution didn't help, either, BTW.
And indeed looking at the web version of Revel the download button that usually sits under the pictures is missing in that library.
Seeing as I can see the pictures, how come I can't just download at least the file it's showing me ?

Hi again Aurelien
While I reach out to our server team for help, you could also try to troubleshoot this.
Before I go on, please ensure you have a separate backup of all your photos outside of Revel, example: on an external USB drive.
Now, if you originally uploaded the images using Revel iOS, and the images/videos are still on your device camera roll, then please sign back into your account in Revel iOS -- Revel will resume uploading the originals automatically. Once sync from iOS is complete, you should then be able to export on the desktop, or find the photos in your Adobe Revel Library on Mac if you have Keep Originals enabled in the Revel Mac app settings. I just confirmed this works.
Unfortunately, easily resuming original image uploads like this is not yet supported on Revel Mac or on www.adoberevel.com, but I will ensure that this enhancement is tracked by Product Management for the future.

Airport card can see networks but can't connect all of a sudden

I have an older MacBook running 10.6.8 (snow leopard) and it's been working fine. All of a sudden, it can see networks, but cannot connect. I get an alert with an exclamation point and "no Internet connection". My iPad can connect just fine; same network, same location as usual, so I know it's not an issue with the network/router (my husband's computer works fine as well). If my airport card went, I wouldn't be able to see any networks at all, right? Is there anything I can do? My AppleCare has run out, due to the age of my computer and I don't want to put hundreds into fixing it, either (nor can I afford it). Has anyone had this happen? Any suggestions? Thanks!

I can see thumbnail but can't open psd file,photoshop 7

I have no idea to what is going on, but I did all this work and now that I try to reopen the psd file, I can't.
I don't see anything, no layer, no photo nothing.
I am using window xp. got the scratch setup on an external drive with plenty of space. got 4gof memory and plenty of processing power.
once again I can see the thumbnail but can't open the psd file.
Thank you for your help.

I got it to work. I think my main problem was since my psd file crashed I was using existing pdf to save as psd. well that didn't go well with photoshop. Plus the fact my scratch was in an external location. Once I recreated the drawing and installed an additional hard-drive where I relocated the scratch file I was set to go. I now can save and reopen the file with no issues.
I would like to thank everyone who helped me with this issue.

Can see thumbnails, but can't enlarge a photo

Hi all,
Installed iPhoto11 yesterday. So far, I'm having a few issues that I can't seem to be able to fix. One of them is when enlarging a photo. I can see the thumbnail, but can't enlarge it. This is not happening to all photos. All photos that were taken "portrait" and were modified in iLife09 are working. All originals, in landscape mode, are not. I get the Grey Library Icon when trying to enlarge.
I've tried to delete my projects, albums, etc. but it didn't change the behaviours.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Apple TV can see library, but can not reach content after adding Roksbox on a Roku in another room.

I have my iTunes library on a power mag g5 running leopard. I have an Apple TV I have been using to access the content. I have since added an older Roku in a different room. I installed an app called Rokbox on the Roku that is able to stream content over the network. I had to start the web server and create soft links to the music and movie directories where the iTunes content resides. Now the Apple TV can see the library on the network but can not see the content. Please help.

Hi All,
Same issue here. Just upgraded (?) from the previous version of Apple TV, to the new Apple TV2. Like others here, my main problems seem to be with unreliable streaming from iTunes 10 on my PowerMac (Quad G5, Leopard OSX).
My original AppleTV had no issues w/the wireless network, or synching w/my PowerMac.
The network connection from the ATV2 are fine, and have no issues accessing the Apple Store (for movies, TV shows), or accessing Netflix. The access to the internet from my ATV2 is quite robust.
My problems are with keeping a constant, reliable wireless connection to my PowerMac, via an Airport Extreme wireless router.
I have tried multiple restarts, reboots, reset ATV2 to original settings, tried different wireless channels on the Airport Extreme, verified I have Home Sharing properly enabled in iTunes,etc, but no luck so far.
What I'm seeing is when I access my iTunes on my computer, I can see my library, and then if I start to "shuffle songs" I may get 1 to 3 songs to play fine, but then the music stops, and I can no longer access the music/movies/etc in iTunes any longer. When I then go to my PowerMac, it has lost most bars of signal strength on the wireless network (although all other devices show strong signal strength), and I have to Turn AirPort Off, then Turn AirPort On and I then am reconnected to the wireless network with good signal.
I then go back to the ATV2, connect to my iTunes, start my music, and then 1-2 songs later it again stops playing, and I go through this all over again.
It seems as though there is something on the wireless network between the ATV2 and my PowerMac that causes it to lose connection, and I have to manually start again. The problem is that the connection is not robust, and only lasts a few minutes.
Hope this gets solved soon.
Regards
Tom

Music does not sync properly when updated to latest version. Can see computer but can't play from ipod

Music does not sync properly when updated to latest version. Can see on computer but can't play from ipod.

Hope this helps...
I was having the same problem where only 1.7GB of 10GB of selected music would sync so I decided to start fresh. The following steps worked for me:
1. Open itunes and connect iphone 5 if not already. Uncheck all playlists, artists, etc. till nothing is checked to sync. Then uncheck the sync music box so that all music will be removed from the phone. Sync iphone
2. Eject device. Quit itunes (don't just close). unplug iphone.
3. Restart imac, macbook, or PC.
4. Restart iphone.
5. Now after power up, restart itunes then plug in iphone, check sync music and select music to sync. Sync iphone
6. It worked for me!!! Good luck.

Can't FTP from a Mac to a Mac through ABS but can from a PC to Mac

Hi all,
I have a problem trying to FTP from a Mac to a Mac through my ABS but can do so from a PC (windows machine).
I have a webserver http://jeanmatthieu.free.fr/pureftpd/ installed on one of my Macs which is connected to the internet via my ABS (snow). My other Mac is connected to the net via a dial-up modem. I can successfully FTP to the Mac with a webserver using an FTP application on a PC, but am unable to successfully connect from a Mac using an FTP appllication (I have tried Transmit, Fetch, and Cyberduck). The Mac FTP application connects but will not list the files on the FTP server, eventually timing out (see Transmit log below) I think the issue is with the ABS and possible port mapping as I can successfully FTP Mac to Mac if the server is connected to the net through ethernet and not my ABS.
Can anybody give me pointers as to what I need to do to solve this.
Thanks

I can no longer access WEbkinz and ESPN on my MAC with Firefox but can with Safari

So far the trouble is with those two. I deleted Firefox and re-downloaded but no different.

You might try to see if you can restore your iWork documents from an earlier point in time by using Time Machine. To do this, Open Finder and navigate to “~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~Pages/Documents” (without the quotes) from the Go>Go to Folder menu. Then launch Time Machine, go back in time until you see your pages documents, then select them, click Restore and exit Time Machine. Then repeat this from "~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~Numbers/Documents" to restore your Number documents.
