Under My Image Garden, laptop recognizes the printer can do dvd labels but the desktop does not.

Why won't My Image Garden recognize that I can do DVD labels? All it will let me do is make calendars. Under the new menu, all the other choices are turned off. My old canon printer had no trouble. The new one is an MG5430 (in the US MG5420 or 22). Thank you.

Actually, my husband was able to find the drive so the problem is solved!

try disabling email scanning for incoming mail.
One of the last things that occurs is the mail server and Thunderbird sign off on "where we are up to" and Thunderbird stores this state information in the popstate.dat file in your profile (there is one in each POP mail account folder). If the anti virus, or you for that matter, end the conversation a few seconds early that hand off does not occur and the popstate is not stored.

If you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar on it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC - when connected (and if your computer's iTunes is up-to-date) your iPad should then appear on that sidebar under a 'Devices' heading :
If you select the iPad on that sidebar you can then use the Movies tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and sync that film to your iPad's Videos app.
Has your iPad been synced to the computer before ? If not then you might find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that points to a hardware problem. Yu can make an appointment at the the Genius Bar of an Apple store or try:

I purchased OS 10.6 for a iMac notebook running 10.5, to allow me to hookup a new HP printer. Can I install OS 10.6 on an older Mac desktop running OS 10.3 or 10.4, so the printer can be hooked up to the desktop?

I purchased OS 10.6 to upgrade my father's 13" laptop running 10.5, so he could hookup a new HP printer.
Is it possible to upgrade his older desktop running either OS 10.3 or 10.4, with the OS 10.6 disc, so he could
use the printer with his desktop? Thank you.

When printing from my Mac all of a sudden when printing from IPhoto the picture is really dark. The test page off my HP color laser jet is just fine. It is not the printer although older. All of sudden it does not want to print correctly.

All of a sudden when printing from my desktop Mac in IPhoto the printout comes out black. My colors are fine on my HP color laser printer. I have printed many times and now all of a sudden it is not printing. A test copy from my printer comes out fine. I really think for some reason something has changed just in the last few days. Just communication with IPhoto and the computer.

As long as your cartriges are full, put a photo on you desktop, highlight it , click COMMAND P and the print preferences window should drop down, and select your printer and photo paper.

TS1369 My iPod classic displays the apple logo, then shows a large red "X". I have repeated the list of steps several times, but my computer does not recognize the iPod. Does this mean my iPod will not work again?

My computer will "wait for the iPod", then begin to prepare it for recovery, but the process does not follow through. I've tried a few procedures to reset my iPod, and connect it to the PC, but even with repeating them, it fails. What must I do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

What can I do to unlock my I pad? When I did an apple update it just froze up. As stated above I held down the sleep button and waited for the red slider to tell me to shut it off but the apple symbol just kept blinking at me.
I just bought my I pad in August so it is still under warrenty.

Thanks for the suggestion but I tried that and nothing happened. There is a line going horizontal on the screen with a lock looking thing at the end of the line then there is an arrow that leads up to the I Tunes word and symbol.
I plugged the i pad in and will try what you said again after the battery increases in case the battery was very low.
Do you have any other suggestions?

How do I get Image Capture to recognize a printer on my network?

I just got a new MacBook Pro. I have my epson printer on my network. How do I get Image Capture to recognize that I have a printer. Nothing comes up on devices. I'm sort of stabbing in the dark at network settings and I downloaded the latest Epson driver. Nothing seems to work. Can anyone help? Suz

In Image Capture, a network printer / scanner will appear under "Shared". If it is hidden, a number will appear adjacent to it, representing the number of hidden devices.
If it still does not appear, try resetting the printing system: Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system
After you do that you will need to add the device again according to the instructions here:
OS X Mavericks: Set up a printer
Follow the instructions below Add a network printer

On the printing slowness of Postscript produced by the JVM from calls to Graphics.drawString() (Linux/Unix)

Happy new year,
before the holidays my attention was drawn to an issue that supposedly the Postscript produced by the JVM is too big and hence too slow. Here are my findings.
The issue
Text printing via CUPS to native Postscript printers can be slow. Printing a terms and conditions page (17000 characters/page) takes three and a half minutes to print on a Dell 2330 dn laser printer (96 MB,Max speed 33 ppm). The file is about 8 MB in size. To contrast that, rendering the text to a buffered image with 300 DPI and printing the result produces 7 MB of output which prints in 30 seconds on the same printer. More measures for different printers and documents can be found at the end of this post. The issues is registered as "JDK-4627340 : RFE: A way to improve text printing performance for postscript devices" (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4627340) and the proposed workaround is to use printer fonts.
Side remark regarding the workaround
There is a regression that prevents the workaround from working (bug 9008662 at Sun (not yet visible), bug 8023990 at OpenJDK (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8023990). Without knowing what other bad side effects this might have, the issue can be resolved by setting the property "sun.awt.fontconfig". On my system I set it to the location of a "fontconfig.properties" of a JVM that does not have the bug (e.g. /home/alex/openjdk_7_b147_jun_11/openjdk/build/linux-i586/bin/java -Dsun.awt.fontconfig="/etc/java-6-openjdk/fontconfig.properties" Print2DtoStream). I also successfully tested the workaround on an Oracle JVM 1.7.0_03-b04.
Back to the main topic
How the JVM draws text if it can't use a standard printer font
Text is drawn with postscript path drawning commands such as "moveto", "lineto" or "curveto". As an example consider the word "ll" which looks something like this:
%N->short for "newpath"
N
%paint first "l"
%M->short for "moveto"
0.76875 11.06 M
%L->short for "lineto"
0.76875 2.468 L
1.823 2.468 L
1.823 11.06 L
0.76875 11.06 L
%p->short for "closepath"
P
%paint second "l"
3.649 11.06 M
3.649 2.468 L
4.703 2.468 L
4.703 11.06 L
3.649 11.06 L
P
The same text could be printed with a printer font using the command "(ll) show" which is much more compact but is available in Java only for the Postscript standard fonts and it isn't working at all right now as explained above.
Is it the file size?
My first thought was that the file size was the source of of slowness and so I wrote a small processor that would detect glyphs, normalize*1 them and place them in a dictionary. Recurring references to the same glyph were replaced by a dictionary reference (This is incidentally the fix proposed by the original author of RFE 4627340). This shrunk the file to about 11% of the original size but the processing time surprisingly doubled.
*1: With "normalizing" I mean applying a translation transform so that the smallest coordinates in the contours of a glyph are exactly 0. In addition I experimented with performing a normalizing scale transform so that all coordinates lie between 0 and 1 so that identical glyphs are detected at arbitrary positions and at different font sizes.
That led to the question to why there is such a big difference in performance between a Type 1 font dictionary and a self constructed dictionary since both contain basically the same drawing instructions. The difference is apparently that fonts are cached and user drawings are not unless explicitly told.
The Postscript "ucache" instruction
Postscript level 2 introduces the "ucache" instruction which seems to be defined for precisely this kind of problem. From the documentation:
"Some PostScript programs define paths that are repeated many times. To optimize the interpretation of such paths, the PostScript language provides a facility called the user path cache. This cache, analogous to the font cache, retains the results from previously interpreted user path definitions. When the PostScript interpreter encounters a user path that is already in the cache, it substitutes the cached results instead of reinterpreting the path definition. "
After adding "ucache" instructions to my filter the speed improved by factor 10.
To illustrate the said the "ll" text from above looked as follows after the transformation:
%definition of the glyph "l" named "p0"
/p0
ucache
0.000 0.000 1.054 8.592 setbbox
0.000 8.592 moveto
0.000 0.000 lineto
1.054 0.000 lineto
1.054 8.592 lineto
0.000 8.592 lineto
closepath
} cvlit def
G
N
0.769 2.468 translate
%draw "l" at 0.769 2.468
p0 ufill
-0.769 -2.468 translate
3.649 2.468 translate
%draw "l" at 3.649 2.468
p0 ufill
-3.649 -2.468 translate
For ucached shapes there is a special compact representation so that the same can be written as follows:
/p0
0.000 0.000 1.054 8.592
0.000 8.592
0.000 0.000
1.054 0.000
1.054 8.592
0.000 8.592
} cvlit def
G
N
0.769 2.468 translate
p0 ufill
-0.769 -2.468 translate
3.649 2.468 translate
p0 ufill
-3.649 -2.468 translate
Interestingly the speed improvement remained the same on a Chinese report that had hardly any character reuse. Upon this observation I changed the filter to not use a dictionary but so simply instruct the interpreter to cache each glyph definition and the performance remained nearly the same.
The initial "ll" text from above looks as follows after this transformation:
N
%paint first "l" cached
0.76875 2.468 1.823 11.06
0.76875 11.06
0.76875 2.468
1.823 2.468
1.823 11.06
0.76875 11.06
} ufill
%paint second "l" cached
3.649 2.468 4.703 11.06
3.649 11.06
3.649 2.468
4.703 2.468
4.703 11.06
3.649 11.06
} ufill
Note that I didn't normalize the shapes.
Why does this improve the performance so vastly if the shape is drawn only once? For a while I thought perhaps that the interpreter would consider two paths which differ only by a translation as being the same but rereading the documentation and looking at the Chinese example in which nearly all characters are unique, disproves this. The relevant part of the documentation reads:
"Caching is based on the value of a user path object. That is, two user paths are considered the same for caching purposes if all of their corresponding elements are equal, even if the objects themselves are not.
A user path placed in the cache need not be explicitly retained in virtual memory. An equivalent user path appearing literally later in the program can take advantage of the cached information. Of course, if it is known that a given user path will be used many times, defining it explicitly in VM avoids creating it multiple times.
User path caching, like font caching, is effective across translations of the user coordinate system, but not across other transformations, such as scaling or rotation. In other words, multiple instances of a given user path painted at different places on the page will take advantage of the user path cache when the current transformation matrix has been altered only by translate. If the CTM has been altered by scale or rotate , the instances will be treated as if they were described by different user paths."
An explanation that would fit the findings
The rasterizer renders the page multiple time (perhaps in order to save memory and produce horizontal strips). On the first rendering the cache is filled and reused on the subsequent renderings thereby improving performance even if all cached items are used only once.
Based upon this theory I hoped that the strip height would grow if I added more memory to the printer but this was not the case on the two printers for which I had memory to test with. Even substantial changes to the available memory (e.g. going from 32 MB to 96 MB) had no impact whatsoever on the performance.
Summary
The issue is not related to the file size as the original requester suspected but very likely due to the uncached rendering. Caching of glyphs can be achieved by using the "ucache" instruction or perhaps by placing the glyphs in font dictionaries and using the "show" operator.
Although reported in 2003, time is apparently not healing this quick enough since printers in the 10,000$ class like the Sharp MX2310U still take a full minute to print 10 pages and a desktop printer may be blocked for over an hour for the same document.
We will now try to use the CUPS filter and leave the printers configured as Postscript printers. If there is interest I can post the single file source of a CUPS filter that performs the inline conversion described. Apart from libl it requires no additional libraries and written using flex it is reasonably lightweight and fast.
I would appreciate any opinion on whether or not the proposed workaround for bug 8023990 (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8023990), namely having the system property "sun.awt.fontconfig" pointing to a working fontconfig.properties of a previously installed and working 1.6 version file, is safe.
Measures (Appendix)
"Terms and Conditions" report
Testing a single page "Terms and Conditions" report in "Arial" 8pt (I am aware that "Helvetica" is width compatible and nearly looks the same but in this particular case the line height was also relevant and as explained above, printer fonts are currently not working). The page contains 17000 characters of which some parts are bold and some italic. This is a real world example and to make things worse the requirement is to print the text on the backside of every page on a certain class of reports. I am aware that this is a bit extreme but I also felt that I couldn't dismiss it as being unreasonable.

Will putting the boilerplate in the trailer section allow me to still have it appearing on the back page of the main report? This is where it needs to be as far as the printed report goes - it is duplexed.

I dropped my iphone, it cracked (it alredy had some cracks in it) and the screen is black but sometimes has a background light.. When i plug it in to charge or to the computer it vibrates every 10 seconds and itunes does not recognize it. What can I do?

I dropped my iphone 4 pretty hard, it cracked (although it already had a few cracks in it) and now the screen is black but sometimes has a background light turn on and then off. Holding the home button and off button at the same time do not work. When I plug it in to charge or to the computer it vibrates every 10 seconds and itunes does not seem to recognize it. It gets really really hot when plugged in (which I don't think is normal). icloud does not recognize it under "find my iphone" either. What could the problem be? I am wondering if dropping it dislodged something inside. if so, what did I dislodge and is it possible to fix this myself?
Thanks

Sounds like that drop was a critical one, my friend. I would make an appointment at your nearest Apple Retail Store, because you're going to need a replacement. Also as a side note: the reason that the charger is making the phone vibrate over and over is because there is a disconnect somewhere in the charge port of the phone, causing it to plug in and out over and over.

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
