Upgraded to snow leopard and now cannot print
I purchased an iPhone 4S which forced me to upgrade to snow leopard. I have two Epson printers and an Epson scanner. Now I cannot print.
I downloaded Epson updates for the new system from the Apple website hoping that would solve the problem. It did not.
Current print issues:
The print dialogue boxes look like inDesign options, not photoshop or "regular" print options.
I cannot print : Error:/System/Library/Printers/Printjobmgr/Contents/MacOS
Any suggestions on what to do next? This is very frustrating.
Thanks in advance.
Open the System Preferences program and select the Print tab. Delete the printers and then try installing the printers again.
I don't know what you mean by:
The print dialogue boxes look like inDesign options, not photoshop or "regular" print options.
If this persists you might want to take screenshots and include them.

I recently upgraded to snow leopard and now every time i open iCal i get multiple events to update in iCal. Except I don't know where these are coming from or why. I've check iCal preferences and Help - can't find a way to stop this from happening automatically. Any Clues? Also, some of the events are already on my calendar and have been for quite some time.
Greetings,
What do you mean by "events to update"? Do you mean invites to new events or changes to existing invites?
Troubleshooting:
1. Your profile indicates you are running 10.6.7, 10.6.8 is the current version Apple > Software update.
2. First make an iCal backup: Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal 1 at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
3. Launch iCal and test.
Hope that helps! -
Upgraded To Snow Leopard And Now The Mic Is Not Working
I upgraded to Snow Leopard, and now my mic input is not woking on my 2 year old MacBook Pro. Can you tell me how to fix it?
Dainis,
Welcome to Apple Discussions!
You haven't provided much information so there is no way for us to trouble shoot your issue. I'm guessing you plugged a mic into the port, if so go to manufacturer of the mic's web site and see if that device is Snow Leopard compatible. Otherwise our hands are tied on how to help you.

Upgraded to Snow Leopard and now I can't back up
Recently I upgraded to Snow Leopard after my hard drive crashed in my MacPro. I had the hard drive replaced and then imported the old information to the new one via Time Machine. All went well. I have been backing up on a Lacie 160 GB external hard drive for years, and like it's designed to, when it's full, the older backups got deleted to make way for new ones.
Now when I try to back up to the Lacie since the upgrade and the installation of the new internal drive, I get error messages that tell me the device is too full, and I cannot back up.
Does anyone know how I would go about solving this? My thought it that by deleting all of the old backups on my Lacie, I would then free up enough space for Tim Machine to start working like normal again. But I do not want to do this until I talk with people more experienced than I about the advisability of this action. Any advice?Hi, and welcome to the forums.
See #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum). -
Upgraded to Snow Leopard and now Logic 9 crashes ALL THE TIME
I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard.. and now when I open a new Logic File and hit record on an AUDIO track. It crashes. It's fine with MIDI, just crashes on audio. It also won't bounce, and it won't save, it just freezes and vanishes. I've spent the last 3 hours reinstalling it to no avail and have tried it with 9,0,0 and the new 9.1.4,, help!
Probably needs the latest Pro Apps support package for Snow Leopard, sorry, I don't have the file name. There's one for Leopard and a separate one for Snow Leopard.
Did you check to see if it shows up in Apples' Software Update?

Upgraded to snow leopard and now all my time machine backups are gone
Could this be related to the upgrade? This backup is fine as I have nothing to recover, but I don't understand why time machine won't perform an incremental backup. There are 340GB on the disk with 160GB available. The error message I receive is "This backup is too large for the backup disk. The backup requires 275.15 GB but only 160.90 GB are available." Shouldn't back up just be making an incremental backup (erasing GBS?)

Normally, yes. How did you do the upgrade? If you erased your HD, installed Snow Leopard and used +Setup Assistant, Migration Assistant,+ or just drag & drop to restore your data, everything on the disk is considered changed, so Time Machine must do a full backup.
The 275 GB figure includes about 20% for workspace, so the estimated size of the actual backup is about 230 GB.
If that's a full backup, see #D3 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum) for the common causes.
If it's not a full one, see #D4 there. -
Upgraded to Snow Leopard and now iPhoto 11 crashes.
iPhoto worked fine until I upgraded my iMac to Snow Leopard (10.6.8) and installed iLife '11. Now when I put the SD card from my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH20 into the reader, iPhoto (9.1.5) immediately gives me the spinning beach ball until I Force Quit. Even launching iPhoto without an SD card in the slot results in an "iPhoto Not Responding" message, although when the SD card is not in, at least I can see my existing iPhoto pictures behind the spinning ball.
The funny thing is that (1) the updated iPhoto still seems to import pictures from my iPhone 4 okay and (2) my brand-new MacBook Pro imports from the same SD card fine via iPhoto. Unfortunately, my iMac is where I want my photos stored, not on my MacBook Pro.
I have tried various suggestions from other posts but nothing works: restarting iPhoto with Option key down and creating new library... deleting iPhoto preferences file... making sure Bluetooth is turned off. Also, I've tried opening Image Capture to import the photos, but strangely all I see is my card mounted as Canon_DC Mass Storage (although I'm not using a Canon, but my previous camera WAS a Canon...) but no photos come up in the main window and "import" is not choosable.
FYI, the SD card says SD High Capacity 4GB Class 6 Patriot Memory. My iMac has lots of space on the HD and the memory is adequate.
Anyone have any suggestions??! Anything else I should tell you? Thanks in advance for any help.Hi Terence,
Sorry, I thought importing from my iPhone was working, but it's not now. I've also tried connecting my camera directly via USB (rather than putting the SD card in a reader) but it also just beach balls endlessly until I force quit. Here is the beginning and end of the report (i've put a line in between to separate). Thanks again for your help.

Upgraded to Snow Leopard and now CS2 wont launch
I've just installed Mav OS X Snow Leopard on my ancient MacBook and now my very old photoshop CS2 wont launch - it was working fine before I upgraded my operating system. Help!
Photoshop cs2 requires Rosetta on snow leopard.
You can install rosetta from your 10.6 install dvd

I just upgraded to snow leopard and now my intellipoint mouse doesn't work, I tried downloading a new driver and it installs successfully except an extension but it still doesn't work, is this typical of the OS higher than 10.4? Is there any way I can get around this problem?
You need to check with the mouse's developer and see if it's supported or not. That information wouldn't be known by users on this forum.

I recently upgraded to mountain lion and now cannot connect to my Brother QL-570 Label Maker
I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and now cannot print out on my Brother QL-570 printer. I get as far as typing in the label name and then the labeller or computer disconnect. I have tried downloading drivers from Brother but they can't do that as only Apple can do that but there is nothing in Apple to do that. I also reloaded the program off the set up disc. . Any ideas?
yeah-find out where you're downloading stuff to, and stick with it. I'm using FireFox and tell it to save the driver and stuff on the desktop, and when I quit FireFox, there it is on the desktop. you'll also need your admin password. It should show up as a .dmg file, then double-click on it to open it. You should see "Brother.pkg" . start up brother.pkg (double click??) and folow the instructions that ought to appear to install the printer driver. If the .dmg file doesn't mount, use Disk Utility** to mount it and get it working. Then you should see the package. and then you can install it.
** you may have to click on the .dmg file and choose "Get Info" then Open with, then choose disk utility, and then open with then change all. then close it. Hopefully that ought to work. If you cannot remember your admin password, I can't help you right now. Looks like you'd need it, to let Brother install that printer driver.
well, enough for tonight
if this didn't help you, then ask me again tomorrow

To use the features in iCloud you need to upgrade to 10.7.3 (Lion).

HI, SO I BOUGHT MOUNTAIN LION ON MY MACBOOK PRO TRYING TO UPGRADE FROM SNOW LEOPARD, AND WHILE TRYING TO REINSTALL THE OS SETUP AS IT SHOWED IT COULDNT BE VERIFIED, I CROSSED OUT MOUNTAIN LION FROM MY PURCHASES, ITS NOW GONE, DO I HAVE TO BUY IT AGAIN?

I just upgraded to Snow Leopard, and I have Aperture 3.1.3. Now after I import pics from my camera I get a dialogue box so large that I can't see the eject card button. Consequently, I can't get rid of the dialogue box without having to do a force quit on Aperture. How do I fix?
I can drag the dialog box, but I can't move it up far enough to get to the eject card button. The dialogue box contains all the jpeg Numbers I am trying to upload. It has never done that before. It used to be just a smal dialogue box with no jpeg numbers in it.
It is even difficult to get to the Finder with the Dialague box is open. I have to force quit aperture.
Any ideas would be appreciated. -
HELP!! i have a ton of videos of my boys stored in iPhoto..They played fine on my old OSX system (leopard). However, I just upgraded to snow leopard and then to mountain lion and now i can't open my videos at all anymore. HELP!!
Can you tell us about one or more of the video files - what are they? QuickTime? MP4? Something else? How did you create the video files in the first place?
I do a lot of video and when I upgraded to Snow Leopard I discovered that many of the QT videos that I had created previously (via iMovie & Final Cut) would not play correctly in QuickTime X - the bizarre behavior was that QT X acted as if my video files were only audio files! I reported this to Apple at the time but never heard anything back, and there hasn't been any change in later updates to QT X.
The solution was to (re)install QuickTime 7. But first look in your Applications > Utilities folder. When you upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard, the installer normally moves the old QT 7 program to your Utilities folder. If it's there, try using QT 7 to play one of your video files. If QT 7 is not there, you can download and install it from here Make sure you are running at least OS X 10.6.3 before you install QT 7. It's even better if you make sure you are running 10.6.8 which was the last release of Snow Leopard. -
iPhoto says it won't import photos from my Fujifilm Finepix S1000 camera because it's the wrong format (jpeg). It always has before... but I upgraded to Lion then went back to Snow Leopard and now it's not working. Suggestions? Thanks!
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
