Update causes inability to print

In January I directly connected my Intel-based iMac and USB printer to use the new Airport Extreme hub. I also have a Mac G4 that connects via wireless. Everything has been working fine for two months. Two days ago the auto update installed an updated version of Airport software. From my account (which is also the sys admin) I can print just fine. However, all other accounts are no longer able to print. Suggestions?

Hi,
This is not happening because of Acrobat update but the reason for this change is that Firefox 19.0 has introduced its own Javascript PDF viewer.
You can change the settings in browser to use Acrobat plugin for viewing PDF files. Go to Options->Application to chnage the settings, please see attached screenshot for more details.
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks.

Acrobat Pro 9.5.4 Update causes PDF to print more like a web page

Something changed from 9.5.3 to 9.5.4 such that PDFs opened within a browser (FireFox) now print more like a web page. This has caused several issues.
1. Printing now uses the header/footer printing preferences of the browser. All PDF's I print from within the browser print with the URL in the upper right, time/date in the lower right and all the other header/footer preferences in the browser. This was never the case before.
2. Font sizes and text location are different. We print checks, invoices from PDF's generated within our business system. These are now misaligned compared to what they have been because of this change.
It's possible this is related to a browser update but I haven't pinned this down yet. I'm using Firefox 19.0, Windows 7, 32 bit.
Any insights are appreciated.

Latest update causes Brother 5250DN printer not to print on two sides

The latest OS X v10.7 update included an update for my Brother 5250DN printer. Now, it won't print on both sides. After printing on one side, it actually pulls the paper back in, as if it's going to print on the other side, but it comes out blank. It then prints a separate page with the 'other side's' contents. It works fine with my wife's computer, since she hasn't updated the driver yet. Any help with this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul

Have a read of this posting. These Brother users found the same symptom and were able to resolve it.

Update Causes Inability to Set Screensaver

I have just followed directions to install updates. Aferwards, my personalised screen saver was changed and it will now accept anything other than the default pictures as a screen saver. it won't accept any of my own photos. Any ideas?

Yes, I'm on the Share Everything Plan. It appears now that our usage is climbing. We're about halfway through the billing cycle and have used just a little over 3gb. If usage continues to grow, I may have to jump up to 8gb/month (only $10/month more). Oh, and I did hear back from the customer service rep late yesterday afternoon, and I got a call from the Verizon escalation team this afternoon assuring me that they will stay on top of this issue until it is resolved and will continue to communicate status updates until resolution. YIPEE!!

Did recent recommended update cause incompatibility with HP printer, causing error message and printer to print blank pages?

Why not contact HP tech support for assistance since they make the printer. While on their site you can look for an updated printer driver. Otherwise, try deleting the current installed driver, reset the print system, then reinstall your printer's driver.

Acrobat 9.1.2 New Update Causes Print Error

operating sys: Win XP
ver: Acrobat 9.1.2
I'm using a Master file on the printer and marrying my data file to that master.
Ever since I received the new update, any time I print a file over 35 pgs. from Adobe Acrobat it prints out about 30 pgs. correctly and on the next print it spits out the Master file but for the data it prints out the following error:
"ERROR: undefined
OFFENDING COMMAND: limitcheck
STACK:
32
-dictionary-"
I've tried printing to different printers and on different projects but as soon as throw that .pdf into an InDesign document and print from the InDesign program the project prints out correctly.
Any suggests as to how to fix this? OR Will this be fixed in the newest update?

Windows 7 64 Pro, Thunderbird 7.0 (updated recently) : the "publish form" is completely bugged.
Before reading solutions here : can't find mail program error messages (can't find my adress book in TB)
After applying the fix : set the by default programm forced on Thunderbird -> http://forums.adobe.com/message/3610561#3610561
Acrobat "resolves mail adress", then the submit button make a small dialog box appear (can't read anything in it). Nothing happens.
I can click and re-click several times, same "empty" or "not displaying a message long enough" dialog box keeps appearing. No forms sent whatsoever.
This is critical. I'm an ACI. I must set up a special training for one of our customers, about delivering forms. Ok, that issue is on my personnal computer, so far.
I may need to fix the install, or reinstall whatsoever, BUT : can I really come with that kind of answers in a classroom ?
"-Oh, and now publish the form, by clicking here..."
"-Oh, that doesn't work ? Hmmm, it's a known issue without any solution. Uninstall everything and reinstall everything, that should work (or not). Yeah, I know, it's Acrobat...
and no, sorry, I don't have time to uninstall an reinstall everything on all the computers in the classroom, sorry, it's the end of the day. Bye ! What ? You, students, think this
training was in fact useless ? Hm, you kinda of right...we spent a whole day setting forms, discussed how Acrobat is a cool software, and in the end our forms are good to be dropped to the trashcan."
May we have a answer from the Acrobat Team here ?

Adobe Reader Update causes weird printing issues

I recently updated my Adobe Reader to Adobe Reader X. I have a Toshiba with Windows 7 68-bit I believe. After updating to Reader X, I noticed that when I go to print a document, the print settings in Adobe are default set to Print on both sides. I was only printing 1 page so I ignored this and just hit Print, but what happened was really bizarre. The printer printed a blank 2nd page, and then Adobe prompted me to reset my even-numbered pages in the printer to proceed with double-sided printing. If I uncheck the Print on both sides option, I have no problems, everything prints fine. I understand there's already attention called to the bug in the update that defaults the print settings to Print on both sides and has trouble saving new settings. I don't care about that. This is what bothers me: Adobe and the computer and the printer and whatever else is involved should be able to communicate properly that if only 1 page is being printed, it need not print a 2nd blank page and basically force me through the double-sided print process if there's only 1 page, right? Isn't that sort of common sense? I don't mind having to uncheck the Print on both sides option when I go to print just 1 page, but it seems ridiculous to me that I should have to.
Just so you know, I installed the same Adobe Reader X update on a much older computer with a much older printer and had the same problem.
I am wondering if this is an Adobe problem or a printer problem. Neither of the 2 printers I tried this on do doulbe-sided printing automatically. They both require manual help to print on both sides. Will printers that automatically do double-sided printing also send the page through twice even if there is no 2nd page? Then this probably wouldn't be such an issue, if the printer did the double-sided printing itself, I wouldn't care if it passed the paper through twice.
But given that not all printers are equipped with automatic double-sided printing, this then becomes a real pain if I forget to uncheck the Print on both sides button because I then have to go through this entire 2-page process for 1 page. And my printer is in a common area, not right next to my computer, so it adds a lot of back and forth trying to print just 1 page.
Also I read up on previous posts about the default Print on both sides setting, and read one employee's comment that Adobe simply retains the last default setting used for printing PDFs. This is not true. Since my printer at home does not do automatic double-sided printing, I never ever ever use any double-sided printing setting. Even when I do print on both sides, I print odd pages first, flip them over and reset them in the printer, then send a second separate job to print even pages. Same with my work printer. I understand that by defaulting to the double-sided print setting, Adobe is sort of tricking you into saving paper and that's great and all, but all printers don't do double-sided printing automatically. I ended up wasting double the amount of paper last night trying to print a document last night while figuring this out, so way to go.

Dear user,
We would request you to check your version from Help-> 'About Adobe Reader X' because we doubt that you are using an outdated version of Reader. Please update it to 10.1.3 because it was a known issue in 10.1.2 which got fixed by 10.1.3.
I would also request you to check your printer side setting from Control Panel-> Devices and Printers-> Right click Printer-> Printing Preferences-> Search for 'Print on both side or duplex printing' option (generally its under 'Finishing' tab)-> Uncheck it there if you are not using it.
Hope this will resolve your problem. Let us know the result.
Thanks

Recent windows 7 updates caused serious conflicts??

I have two NI PCIe-1433 boards and the NI Max v5.4 installed. Recent win 7 (64 bit) automatic updates, within the last 10 days seemed to cause serious problems. Win 7 couldn't boot any more. Sometimes computer turns on and off by itself before the windows logo shows up. Sometimes it crashes before I can login.
I did a fresh reinstallation of win 7. The same problem happened after some automatic updates. I can boot and use windows 7 if I unplug both NI cards. This makes me think the problem is in NI driver/card. I'm reporting it here to see if anybody experiences similar things.
Earlier this year Win 7 automatic updates caused a problem with my Canon printer/scanner. Canon supplied scan software still does not work today.

Hi Jeremy
Thank you for responding. I do not know which update. I know it's due to some update(s) that happened recently.
After I reinstalled the fresh Windows 7 (64 bit), I installed NI IMAQ software. I was able to use both boards to acquire images at that point. However Windows 7 kept updating itself. Later the same problem happened again.
After unplugging both boards, I have been using the computer for 2 days without a problem. My computer's power supply is 650W. Does the boards require a lot of power?

MS Update Blocking Group Policy Printing

Hello all,
My tech team ran 6-months of updates in computer labs for our community college. The computer labs are under group policies for printer, drive mapping, and other policies that are pushed down to the workstations. These are locked workstations (Faronics DeepFreeze)
hence there were 6-months of updates.
Since those updates were ran, the workstations cannot print to the printers. The group policies still work has the printer and drive mappings are present. I can open documents from the shares. However, you send a print job and it disappears. Try to print
a test page and get a message stating it has failed. The MS troubleshooter does swat.
My network admin is able to print a test page from the server. I tried unjoining and then rejoin the domain, but nothing. I tried System Restore, but it hosed the workstation (blue screen). Safe Mode and Repair did not do a thing.
I know it is the updates because we found a PC that the updates were not ran. It is in a lab that cannot print. I tested it and it can print.
I am resorting to running one Windows update at a time. But there is no guarantee that it will resolve this issue.
Anyone experienced this issue or have advice? Your input would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
What is the detailed message you received when you send a print job?
What updates caused this problem?
I recommend you to uninstall and reinstall this printer driver to check if you still have this issue.
Thanks!

OS 10.4.10 Update Causing Audio Popping (AND HUM) Issues:

OS 10.4.10 Update Causing Audio Popping (AND HUM) Issues:
The problem on my Intel Mac mini with external Klipsch speakers (two mid-range/high and a subwoofer) is REAL obvious as the system emits a hum like a Spinal Tap amplifier turned up to #11 when 10.4.10 powers down the audio circuitry
Then, if I play a song in iTunes, it first pops and the hum disappears right before playing.
Quite annoying. I restored the mini from a recent backup to 10.4.9. Problem gone.
I'm glad I test updates on the mini before applying them to my Intel iMac 24. I guess I'll just hide & watch what happens before doing any more updates.
Here's what I sent to Apple tech support:
Guys/Gals (OS X Engineers):
Concerning the Snap, Crackle Pop Audio problem in the 10.4.10 update:
Please. Just do the right thing and fix the audio.
There is no need to power cycle the audio subsystem to save .0005 amps on the laptop line.
And then to make your Mac mini/iMac/other desktop users have to put up with it when using AC power is ridiculous.
Put the audio subsystem back like it was in 10.4.9 and let the laptop battery freaks looking for mini-amp savings get a "work-a-round".
Crikey!

Libby,
Backup is unable to make a restorable by Disk Utility backup. You can restore pieces of the software as outlined in my FAQ about backing up user data:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
But to be able to restore a backup with Disk Utility, you need a cloning utility to have made the backup.
I suggest starting a new thread here, where someone else could help you out better:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=752&start=0
First off, you'll get a wider audience who may be able to solve your problem. Secondly, responses to you won't confuse the original poster with solutions that don't apply to them. And thirdly, you'll know for certain whether or not a response applies to you.

My ipod touch 4g just updates today on itunes and the update caused more trouble than good for me. My ipod will no longer show me the battery percentage in the top right hand corner and I am not allowed to drag other applications to the bottom panel. Also my itunes doesn't allow "enable disk use" anymore. Can anyone help? My ipod now says that it's the 4.3.4 version

- Unjailbroken iPod never showed % battery. Just the icon.
- Unjailbroken iPod Touches never had a disk mode.

I did the canon driver update but now my printer no longer works

As part of Software Update, my Canon inject printer driver was updated to Version 3.0. The printer had worked under Maverick but after the update, it said it wasn't online. I did all the various "solutions" such as resetting the printer, so now I when I try to add the printer back, no printers are "seen" even when directly attached via USB. I downloaded and reinstalled the Lion Canon Driver but nothing works. I have a Canon MP530.
I'm on a 2011 27-inch iMac running 10.9.3.

Had a similar situation and this is what I ended up doing:
1 - go to the HD/Library/Printers folder and select the Canon folder
2 - enter Time Machine and go back in time to before you ran the Canon printer driver update.
3 - select the Canon folder and restore.
That got my Canon printer working again for me.

InDesign causing others to print blanks pages

Okay so this is a weird issue and I'm getting no results.
My issue is simple. After I print in ID anyone else I work with prints blank pages (We're printing through a network to a device). Also cyan prints incorrectly; however that is fixed if I open the print driver from the print dialog. Now the color thing is a problem through all the adobe software (Illy, Photoshop, Acrobat). No matter which program I use cyan prints wrong. But back to the main issue, strictly ID causes others to print blank. It isn't consistent either. A single document could consecutively cause the blanks then not cause them a little later. We've tried ever print driver possible and the problem persists. Another curious behavior with ID in conjunction with Acrobat is if Acrobat is open and I try to export to .pdf from ID then both programs freeze (however no message of either not responding comes up in the activity monitor) and the preferences are erased from ID
I've spent 4 hrs on the phone with Adobe support and it's just some indian reading from a handbook asking over and over if I deleted my preferences. I've spent days with the printer manufacturer and worked with 7 of their tech specialists and even had them send out a new unit and still the issues. I need to know if the rest of the world is seeing this. Or if this is even close to something someone has seen
So from what I'm seeing is a problem with the PostScript writing that's freaking it out but I'm not software engineer so I can't say for sure.
I'm running CC (though we still had the problems on CS6)
OSX 1.7
ID version 9.2.2
printer is a Konica Bizhub 554e (it's a laser copier)
Thanks,

I actually have created a .pdf and had others print it (a file I create in ID and export to pdf). What ends up happening is if I try to print the pdf people after me get blanks. However if someone else prints it there is no issue. I may have left out an important point I'm the only mac that uses the printer, everyone else uses pc (and I don't know if that's an issue). I only have a postscript driver available (which is good) but i don't know what everyone else is using. I want to say in all of this i heard they have a PCL driver.
As far as the router, I'm hardwired into the network so there is no router. Konica and our IT have checked the network and ruled out that possibility (and I don't really know what that means)
But you are reaffirming the fact it is the printer and they need to fix it. And the fact that a document printed with only cyan is printed with all four colors to give me some weird off color makes me think the disconnect is between Adobe and the printer. But still so weird about the blanks.
Thanks for the input
