Under finder select file and under file print is not highlighted

I select finder and then file but cannot select print under file menu because print is not in bold!

It would be much more helpful if you provided a more complete description including the version of OS X installed on the computer. By complete what type of file is it, i.e. the file extension information.

KDE4 apps freeze when selecting File - Print

Well, I've followed the Wiki directions and installed kdemod (KDE 4). Currently, whenever I try to print by selecting File -> Print from within an application, the application just hangs (I never get a print dialog), and I have to kill it. Cups seems to be set up properly through the web interface, and I can print test pages on both of my printers from there. I'm on my second time installing Archlinux, because I could find absolutely no info online about this problem and thought I must have really borked something.
So, the second time around, I decided to keep a close eye on when the problem arose (installing only a couple programs at a time), since I didn't have the problem before installing additional software. Each time I'd install a program, I'd reboot and then try printing from Konqueror. Each time it would work, until after I installed truecrypt and yakuake, and then I began having the problem again. I would suspect truecrypt rather than yakuake at the moment, but uninstalling both packages didn't fix the problem. Furthermore, I can't remember if truecrypt brought down any dependencies
I seem to be the only person having this problem, if I can judge by the complete lack of info online about this (at least that I can find).

Okay, so when the application hangs while printing, no error messages are written to either the .xsession-errors or the cups log. Opening the system monitor (CTL-ESC) I see no tasks taking up CPU or unusual amounts of RAM. If I kill the frozen application, some lines are written to the .xsession-errors file, but I'm not sure if they are helpful or not. Regardless, I have posted them below.
The application hangs immediately after selecting Print from the File menu. After selecting Print, the file menu disappears, and a blank patch of grey is left in place of the menu--it never gets redrawn. If I move any windows over other areas of the frozen application, those areas do not redraw either.
Here is what was written to my cups error log since booting my PC this morning. The last item written to the log occurred two hours before I tried printing.

Peter,
deggie gave you that link so you'd know that airprint is a reduced-options print system, designed for mobile devices (not Macs), and you need to use the specific airprint driver on the Mac when adding the printer if you want Airprint, no-options printing. Otherwise, select the "non-airprint" driver when you add the printer.
It may be helpful to Reset the Printing System to get OS X to find the right driver.

I upgraded from leopard to lion and my epson printer will not work. I get a communication error

I upgraded from leopard to lion and my Epson printer will not work. I get a error message comunication error. What can Ido to fix this I bought a new USB cord and it did no good.

I suddenly had the same thing happen. I've had my new iMac for 3 months and at first my Epson Artisan 50 worked okay then yesterday I started getting the same error message other people on this support site have gotten. I tried ALL the advice given (deleating the Epson files from the library folder, etc. reinstalling older software) and nothing worked. With the newest iMac (and operating system) you cannot pick and choose which version of Epson software you want. You must use the 10.8 version or it simply will not open when you've downloaded it. Finally I found the comment above by den.thed and tried the OS X Mountain Lion: Reset the printing system suggested. As much as I hated to lose all my printing presets that took a lot of expiermentation to set up, I was desperate. I tried it and it worked. Now I just have to consult my old computer and try to recreate all my printing set ups. So to others with Epson / Apple 10.8 issues this may help when everything else fails. Thanks den.thed for your advice.

Go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer and check to see if they have released an updated driver for your particular model.

If the iPhone is locked to a US carrier, you cannot use the SIM card of another carrier on it to either activate it or use the iPhone.
If you want to use your iPhone with China unicom, you need to get it unlocked by your US carrier. Contact them to see what their unlocking policy is and if you qualify.

I imported a movie from PhotoBooth to IMovie. I want to put the movie on my blog. To do that I have to select Share >Media Browser, but it is not highlighted in IMovie. What should I do?

Is the clip only in your Event Library in iMovie?
You need to create a Project (File > New Project).
Then move the clip into the project, do any edits and you should be able to Share your Project to Media Browser.

YOu need to reinstall iPhoto.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

How do I keep the sticky notes from shifting their placement as soon as I select File, Print?

Working with Acrobat Pro 9 and Windows 2007, I frequently use sticky notes to approve multi-page invoices scanned by another location. On the screen they appear where I put them - but as soon as I click File, Print with the printer "Adobe PDF" and "documents and markups" selected, the ntoes all shift to a static location on each page that overlays the invoice detail. I've tried multiple settings and defaults to no
avail. Any help is much appreciated.

Either don't rename upon export, or use the (original filename or) image number in the renaming template:
(see 'File Naming' section of export dialog box)

Finding Selected Files

I started a thread asking how I can find and delete selected files at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6435289#6435289
I was advised to paste the following script into Apple's Script Editor...
tell application "Finder"
delete (every file of entire contents of folder "Sites" of home whose name is "Thumbs.db")
end tell
Unfortunately, it doesn't work. It just times out, my Finder freezes, and I have to manually restart my computer.
However, it does at least FIND every instance of the file I'm looking for. So I'd like to ask about a few variations of this script so I can understand how it works.
Suppose that instead of searching for every instance of Thumbs.db in the folder Sites I wanted to search for every instance of Thumbs.db in User/Sites/MySite. What script would I write to do that? What about searching for the file in User/Sites/MySite/includes ?
Also, what about searching for text on a page rather than a file name? For example, I would like to compile a list of every file in a website that includes a PHP database query. I think I could find all of these queries by searching for mysql_ in each web page's source code. So how could I search for every file that includes "mysql_" in User/Sites/MySite?
Thanks.

1. Use:
tell application "Finder"
delete (every file of entire contents of folder "Sites:MySite" of home whose name is "Thumbs.db")
end tell
2. This is best done with a tool such as TextWrangler instead of with AppleScript.

CS5 crashes when I select "file print" -12.0.0 doesn't

Open photoshop, file>new, file>print (or print one copy), and the program crashes to desktop. This started happening when I upgraded to 12.0.1, and only when I reverted to 12.0.0 the problem went away. Now I upgraded to 12.0.2 and the problem is back.
Windows 7 64bit, Canon LBP5050n
I tried deleting the preferences, no go. Tried reinstalling the printer driver, no go. The only solution seems to be to continue working in 12.0.0

Check carefully everywhere you can to see whether you have any remnants of printer drivers defined that have been removed physically or via software.
How are you reverting back to 12.0.0 after having installed the updates? Just curious.

Finding strings in "Selected Files in Site" not working

When searching files for a string, and selecting "Selected Files in Site", Dreamweaver (starting today) will only search the root directory, NOT the selected subdirectory. This is uselss. I've been using Dreamweaver for years. Today I switched to mapping the site with an IP address instead of a server/domain name, could this be the culprit?

I encountered exactly the same problem.
I'm trying to solve this problem...

File/Printer Sharing Not Working

2 identical X61 with XP and Intel Wireless WiFi Link AGN. 2 different home networks, one Belkin, one NetGear. Both connect to network. Both are set for file and printer sharing. Neither can see or be seen by other computers on same network or connect to shared printers. Have used 2 "expert" troubleshooting guides with no result. Every other laptop that has ever been used or has been a guest on these networks has connected with no problem and "seen" network resources.
Is there some obscure setting somewhere in Access or elsewhere that enables/disables networking other resources on same network?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

See -> http://www.vistax64.com/vista-networking-sharing/72537-file-printer-sharing-turned-off-reboot.html Here is the text. Re: File and Printer sharing turned off on reboot
I FOUND MY SOLUTION!!!
In my case, it was in Lenovo's "ThinkVantage Access Connections" applet. It
is additional security that is applied at the CONNECTION level.
Here is how I fixed it:
1. Double click on the ThinkVantage Access Connections applet in the
notification area.
2. Click on the MANAGE button on the toolbar
3. Select the SSID where you want File Sharing to work, and click EDIT
4. Click on the ADDITIONAL SETTINGS tab
5. Next to "Network Security", click the SETTINGS button
6. The first option in Security Settings is "Disable file and printer
sharing". UNCHECK this box. Click OK for 3 levels of dialog boxes, then
close Access Connections
Although these directions are specific to ThinkPad notebooks, the same
principle may apply for other manufacturers' connection managers.
Best of luck!
