Tiger constantly complains about the printer being stopped!

I am really getting sick and tired of dealing with a problem that I for not a SINGLE DAY had in Mac OS 7-9! NOT a single day!!
Please understand my frusteration, because in some ways Mac OSX is a downgrade. Yet in many others ways is superior.
Okay yesterday or Friday I sent several faxes via my FaxSTF X app. Today I wanted to do the same but kept on getting a machine saying that my printer has stopped and I clicked on continue to add it to the que. I then opened the print manager and clicked on the start jobs icon, and nothign happened, except more temp files were created in the FaxSTF window. But no the fax never went through.
How do I fix this? I am about to buy myself a fax machine. Most companies and individuals these days do not bother with sending faxes with their computers. There are too many hassles.
For me its just plain sad that my old LC III (with Global Village Fax Center) could floor Tiger anyday in a faxing contest.
I appreciate the help. I am just really frusterated with this ibook.

Hi, John.
1. I don't use FaxSTF X, but — if you're trying to fax through your Mac's built-in modem — I suspect the "printer" being cited may not be your actual printer but rather a FaxSTF X-related queue. What's the exact text of the message?
2. Also, in System Preferences > Print & Fax > Faxing, assure that "Receive faxes on this computer" is de-selected. Under Panther, this FaxSTF X support article noted conflicts between their software and this preference, which relates to the built-in Fax function of Mac OS X introduced in Panther. While they've not updated this article for Tiger, it's worth a try.
3. One other option is to check Console for clues, i.e. messages referring to FaxSTF X or print queues at the end of the logs cited in my link when the problem occurs.
4. Finally, you may want to search the SmithMicro support database or contact them.
Good luck!

To whom do I complain about the calendar on the iPad 2 with iOS 7? I can no longer read my appointments. Is there an adjustment I can make? Larger text size doesn't help.

To whom do I complain about the OS 7 calendar on the iPad 2? I used to be able to read my appointments. The new small font is horrible. Text size doesn't seem to change it. Can I change it?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

I get an error when starting firefox on several user profiles: the bookmarks and history are not functional something about the file being in use.

Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 workstations, the appdata folder is redirected to a network share at \\server\profiles and several users are unable to use bookmarks getting an error about the file being in use. I'm wondering if maybe my antivirus (Trend Micro) or my backups (Symantec) might be locking up the places.sqlite for these users? Though I don't understand why it would be for some users and not others. I can't be the first one and I'm not coming up with anything searching google endlessly. Anybody else run into this?

hello, yes this is likely caused by an external program locking access to the bookmarks/history database. you could try renaming the file in question & see if it is working when it is regenerated, this will clear bookmarks and the history though, so keep a backup...

HT1222 This article contains absolutely NO information about the update being offered.

This article contains absolutely NO information about the update being offered. It doesn't even tell me what it might break on my system (i.e. what gets changed). Just excuses of "We Aren't Telling Until Our Investigation Is All Done."
That's not a good enough reason to install an update, it never was, and it never will be.
"Do it because we say so" might fly overseas in Foxconn factories, but around here we don't like being kept in the dark and fed a load of fertilizer.

The individual update pages, such as this one, list the changes and fixes. The reference to information which Apple doesn't release is about security bugs it's identified but not patched, as it would only be useful to attackers.

Trying to update firmware on my canon printer MG5320 but in doesn't recognize the printer being plugged in via USB cable

I am trying to update firmware on my canon printer MG5320 to be able to use the airprint feature but in doesn't recognize the printer being plugged in via USB cable. I have tried restarting the macbook, turning on and off the printer, repairing permissions, deleting and redownloading the update what else can I do? The prinyrt works fine otherwise...

If there are no drivers for Yosemite you might be in trouble.. HP will tend not to support printers once they are EOL.
Getting it running over wireless rather than USB might be worthwhile.
Can’t connect wirelessly HP Photosmart C4780 to MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.2 Mountain Lion.
Has the printer been working and now failed after update.. what update caused the failure if that is the problem??

How do you complain about Apple products being sold at WalMart?

See pic below, taken just a few days ago. No iPhone 5S on display, No iPhone 5c. They finally removed the clear plexiglass case they used to have over the phones, because it was so scratched up you could hardly see through it. This is totally nasty and trashy.
Now if you go to the Samsung part of the display, it is full of the latest phones - all prominantly displayed. Notice also the Samsung poster below the Apple section!
How can Apple let their products be displayed like this? I hope Angela Ahrendts will turn this around. I would be embarrassed to have my products displayed in this way. Also, the sales staff knew absolutely nothing about iPhones. Walmart is not helping Apple or its image.
I don't know how to formally complain, so if there's a better way to do that, please let me know.

Complain to the Walmart store management in person or send a complaint to Walmart corporate about the problem:
