[solved] Printing gone after update

I just ran a pacman -Syu yesterday. All of my printers have disappeared, and localhost:631 returns "connection refused". What happened?

I guess you did not read the upgrade message from cups:
daemon srcript has been renamed to /etc/rc.d/cupsd
change your entry in /etc/rc.conf

Adobe PDF Printer gone after updating!?

Good afternoon,
My PDF Printer has literally disappeared after running the automatic update (9.4.4) early this morning.
In fact, the sequence has been like this:
1. Running InDesign so I keep on working on a project.
2. Adobe updater pops up
3. Since I was experimenting random and automatic "pauses" on the PDF printer, I decide it is a good idea to update in the hope this will fix the random pauses.
4. Work nice as always. PDF creation goes fine, however, random pauses did not go away. Doesn't care too much, at the end it takes only a split second to "resume" the printer back and you're done.
5. Out to lunch and back
6. Open same InDesign doc to perform corrections as addressed in client email
7. Go to print dialog box and... voila! PDF printer is gone...
So, at this point, I go to the printer Apple pref pane and surprisingly, there is NO PDF Printer at all.
Try to add one maually. Worthless, there is nothing to be added. I restart the iMac.
Once back in, try the same. Nothing to add.
Navigate through forums and the web and nothing seems to address such behavior.
I decide to reinstall Acrobat from scratch using the CD. That is, to downgrade. Back to normality. Annoyed, indeed,
So, Has anyone experienced such a thing? Any known solution?
What about the random "pauses" or standby?
Thanks in advance!!! ;-)
Juan.

Thanks for posting Steve, I still have to deep-read these links you provided but I feel like the answer might be there...
Yesterday, in the meantime, I was in a hurry so I just decide to re-install Acrobat from scratch wich blew away the issue.
Seems like Acrobat 9.0.0 does well with MacOs 10.6.1
As far as I have reade in the links, I understand that there will be no more PDF Printer in the future, am I right?
And, I was just wondering, if it is so, we wont have to use Distiller anymore?
Guess I have to invest sometime on this.
Thanks!

Adobe PDF 9.0 printer gone after update

I just downloaded the most recent update for Acrobat Pro (something about English, French language). After the updater finished, I noticed that my PDF printer vanished. I tried to add it by going to print from Quark but couldn't find it. Tried the same thing thru Print and Fax in System Preferences. Can I uninstall the update that I did since it seemed to get rid of the PDF printer. If so, how do I go about doing it?

Your experience is common. Evidently there is a bug; that Adobe, nor Apple, has figured out. Or if either has, no one has bothered to announce what it is.
I think it has something to do with X.6 Snow Leopard is 64-Bit and maybe the automator action that is invoked in the print menu is 32-Bit and somehow its not compatible. But this is a theory of mine.
There may be some information on Adobe's Support page.
I don't understand either. I wish I could know maybe I could be better help.

photos on screen saver gone after update of apple tv

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
Why are you looking in a shared library, is itunes set up as a secondary library.
See This
If you are set up as a primary library you need to look in my tv shows.
When you say you have reinstalled everything, does that include itunes (if so how did you do that), does it include rebuilding your itunes library.

Apps gone after update

Apps gone after update iPot toch touch to 5.0.1

My guess is that the apps were not in the iTunes library on the computer on which you did the update. Apps )and ther items like music)are nt in the backu that iTunes makes as the first step of the backup.
To redownload:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

TV, Movie, and Podcast Favorites Gone after Update?

Has anyone else noticed their "Favorites" gone after updating to the latest software? I did also unplug and do some traveling over the weekend so I'm not sure what exactly caused it but I had to add all my favorites again. I suspect the update did it. Did this happen to anyone else?

same problem here!!!!!

Officejet Pro K5400 printing problems after update to Mavericks OSX 10.9

Hi,
I have printing problems with my Officejet Pro K5400 after update to Mavericks OSX 10.9.
Now after printing 1 page the printer prints an extra page with '2345X' sentence on it. As this problem started right after updating, I suppose there is a problem with an update.

This patch did solve our problem with the K5400 feeding a "blank sheet".
Thank you.

Color (onscreen/print) issues after update to 10.4.9

I am on the hunt for any new information - I haven't found it yet. I am convinced that one printer profile has gone haywire after the OSX 10.4.9 update. I can no longer use it accurately to onscreen proof nor application manage print in Aperture. The other printer profiles seem to be working. Using PSE4 I get the same preview and print results - major yellow/orange colorcast. My other two printers are working ok.
I understand proofing may/will present a shift in lightness, contrast, etc. and you can create an Aperture version to make adjustments for that profile. But I am experiencing a major shift that is difficult to adjust in the overall image.
Has anyone experienced "all of a sudden" icc profile / onscreen proofing / printer issues after the update (FYI ColorSync was updated in that)? I have tried just about everything except un/reinstalling Aperture.

Did you find out anything about this? I'm having exactly the same problems with Aperture and 10.4.9. Onscreen proofing is completely useless for all profiles supplied by HP (I have a B9180 printer). It might of course be an issue with these particular profiles, but odd thing is that it's only the screen rendering that looks wrong (yellow or reddish cast) while the prints looks just great.

All old e-mails are gone after update

After updating my Gen. 1 iPhone to 2.0 today, I noticed that all the e-mail messages that were on the phone were gone. Inbox, Sent, all of them. Is anybody else experiencing this? I haven't yet tried sending an e-mail to see if my phone is having the same sending issues many of you seem to be having....

I contacted Apple Support to ask for a solution. During a couple of days I received several phone calls asking for info of my different devices and configurations. They didn't have an explanation for my problem and only can recover e-mails for one week ago and. They decide to report to engineering to see what happened and recover the rest.
Meanwhile, after 3 days, my Mail program start to download ALL my mail again. 5000 unreaded e-mails in my inbox. The same way they disappeared they returned. No explanation, no moves, no clicks, nothing. IPhone and iPad sync perfectly.
Two days after that (weekend) Apple Support has called me again (this morning). And that's the strangest part, they have bad news for me because they (nor support neither engineers) cannot recover my lost e-mails!!! Then, I've told them my e-mail has returned and they didn't know it. My problem was solved but Apple Support didn't have a clue why or when.
Happy end but my confidence in iCloud Service has decreased a lot. I've been using my mac.com adress for more than 10 years (most of them paying around 100$) and I didn't expect that kind of surprises and unknwoledge from Apple.

Users gone after update to 10.7.5

I can not connect to Open Directory after update tp 10.7.5 Server, now my users are gone.
Error : The node /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 couldn’t be opened because an unexpected error of type -14006 occurred.
Error of type eDSCannotAccessSession (-14006) on line 4061 of /SourceCache/WorkgroupManager/WorkgroupManager-400.8/PMMUGMainView.mm

Time Machine and any 'previous version' of my VM did NOT solve the problem.
However, VMWARE Snapshots restored my server to a working state again.
This forum is all well and fine ! Users discussing problems amongst themselves and often finding solutions.
How does one send such a question to an Apple Technician to get an official answer on a thing that their update broke without having to pay exorbitantly for THEIR stuff-up ?

Printing problems after updat maverick

After update to maverick mine hp deskjet 3070a ,cannot print wirelessprinting anymore.the AirPrint is not in the list and, bonjour printing is not in the list *** Well Before i update the printer was working allright with wireless connection. No problem what so ever. I can only choose USB printing. Can you please give me Some advice.

I have the same idential issue with a HP Laser Jet Printer P1100/P1102w... If you tick the netwrok printer sharing box on the USB connection the Bonjoour printers show up then almost immediateky dissapear? Only on a few occasions do they remain stable enough to click on and add, however it fails to support AirPrint and will not print over WiFi... it does not pick AirPrint as the driver on AutoSelect and even if I select the printer driver manually it still will not print over WiFi... USB is fine however. I have reset the printing system, I have done a WiFi card reset, I have done all the troubleshooting I can do but still there is an issue? Is there anything else I can do?
I will be getting HP support to remotely shoaddow my Mac in an attempt to get a successful installation however I suspect the issue will persist? All the Apple Updates are done and also the current drivers are installed. I suspect this is an Apple Bug that needs to be fixed asap? It is a brand new HP printer that is supposed to support AirPrint...Very frustrating Apple?

Printing problems after update to 10.2.1.

After updating to 10.2.1 in XP, when I try to print my Reproduction Files in White Mosaic format, the list of songs prints correctly but the CD insert prints a black square while before it printed the covers, pictures or images I had added to each song. Any help? Thanks

Had the same problem, in Windows Seven, Itunes 10.2.2.12. I did not find a fix for it, but I did find a work-around. I printed the jewel case insert to a pdf file (using cutepdf writer - available at cutepdf.com), then printed the pdf (on the same printer that wouldn't print correctly from Itunes) and it worked fine.

Facebook and Twitter tap to post gone after updating to ios 7

Hey guys,
I noticed that the tap to post widget has gone from the notification center after updating to iOS 7. Anyone else noticed this? And if so, will it be available in the future?

You're not alone, I'm missing them too. It's a shame, I used the share widget to update my Facebook status more frequently than I used the Facebook app. I'm hoping it's just a burried setting somewhere that I'm missing.
