Software :: Can CUPS Be Removed From OS X (10.4.11)?
Sep 25, 2008
A little background: Some time ago, back in the 10.3 "era" I think, I installed CUPS on my system. Then along came 10.4.x and broke the version of CUPS I was using (I think that was the story.) So I backed down to CUPS v1.2.12 which I've been using since then. (The details are a little foggy so I apologize for possibly not having release versions definite.) Since then, like anyone else using CUPS I've had to reinstall CUPS every time I apply an Apple system update. Are you aware of any means to remove CUPS v1.2.12 and return to using the Apple-supplied printing components?

I bought a used Mac Mini (2.0GHz, 4GB Ram-seller bought in July '09) this last week. It has Snow Leopard (10.6.1). It started off with trying to install my HP printer that is shared out on a Windows XP machine. Originally when I turned on the Mini, I could see all the Windows machines (two Vista and one XP) machines on my WIFI network. I used the printer & fax function in system preference to add the printer (I could see it in the list under Windows). I sent over a couple print jobs, Mac shows it is gone, Windows machine shows the job in the printer Queue. Eventually the job simply goes away after 1-2 minutes with nothing coming out.

super delay in printing after 10.5.2 update, well, since 10.5.3 apple solved this issue, and now my macbook pro prints perfectly fine over wifi to the airport connected samsung clp-300.the problem is my iMac. The CUPS version is 1.1.? and on my Macbook Pro it says v.1.3.7 after I printed a test page. (this is the latest stable release)

I am trying to print via LPD on my MBP to a Windows 7 computer. I already enabled LPD Server in the "Enable Windows Features" dialog in Windows 7.I added it by the CUPS admin page (IP I used was lpd://10.0.0.11/ because the computer's IP is 10.0.0.11) and it seemed to add fine. I selected the model (Samsung CLP 620) and tried printing a test page.

Can the 1690MF-d be set up to be served by CUPS using the provided driver?BTW, does anyone know if the ADF is also duplex?This multifunction is interesting because of the small size for a duplex laser, otherwise I would prefer a Xerox.

I am on a Macbook Pro running OS 10.7.3, and until some time ago I was being able to print on a HP Laserjet P1102w shared over ethernet from a iMac running OS 10.5.8. Then something happened (probably as a result of an update) and I can't print on that shared printer any more. The error I get on the printer is that annoying /usr/libexec/cups/backend/dnssd failed, OR the "authentication required" message. The printer works just fine on the iMac.I tried several fixes posted here and there such as re-setting the printing system and re-adding the printer in both machines, tried to fix it over the CUPS interface,URL]Unfortunately nothing worked. I noticed two weird things: 1) When I try to change the settings in the cups interface at the iMac, it won't let me apply the changes, it's like it is locked... 2) When I pull out the console at the MacBook, the log for the time the error comes out is: kernel: IOSurface buffer allocation size is zeroCan
Info:
MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.3), OS 10.5.8.

Since apple is now in fashion to reduce the amount of ports in laptops, what do you think will happen to next MP model?
Which ports do we loose and which will survive?
Will there also be proprietary graphics cards with miniDP?

They are located on my desktop and seem to be Windows files. However, they are invisible. How can I make them visible to remove (if needed)? Also, can they be removed, is it safe?

I thought I was moving something else to the recycle bin & at the last second realized I was dragging the stacks icon.
Was successful in missing the bin but must have dropped it off the dock & now I can't figure out how to replace it.
I would actually prefer to just have a 'shortcut/icon' for 'my pictures' there instead, as 99% of the time I clicked stacks I would go there.
I have an IMAC with OS X Version 10.5.8

Whenever I go into iTunes I get a message that there is a download that still needs to download. this is from an album I purchased over a year ago. For some reason the album downloaded but it is still sitting in the download que. So everytime I open iTunes it ask for my password in order to complete the download. How can I just delete the thing? When I right click and select delete from the drop down menu it goes away until I close iTunes and open it back up again. When I actual try to download the purchase I get the following message:
There were problems downloading some purchased items.

I bought a G3 iMac about a year ago as a spare computer, and had tried to remove a disk partition set by the previous user. Now when it boots after the apple logo the log in screen flashes for a second and then disappears, then the icon changes to the spinning beach ball and stays there forever...I assume it is trying to boot from the partitionthat i removed and is confused in somway, can I reset this? or will i need to boot from another device?Maybe i'll need to boot from an ext HD?

Is it safe to start-up a Mac Pro with the side cover removed? (I mean, apart from the obvious not touching any parts while it's running!) Or won't it start at all if it "detects" that the cover has been removed?My Mac is making this weird noise, and I wanted to have a look to see if there are any cables or screws that are not in place.

I had Apple Soundtrack 1.0 installed and then I removed it. Now its been about a week and software update has been coming up and trying to have me update the files, even though I removed the application already. How can I remove whatever is left that makes SU think it is still there? I'm using Snow Leopard, with all updates. The two updates in question are Pro Applications Update 2005-01 and 2006-02.
It claims it is for users of Final Cut Studio 5.1, Final Cut Pro 5.1, Motion 2.1, Soundtrack Pro 1.1, DVD Studio Pro 4.1, Shake 4.1, Live Type 2.1, Compressor 2.1, Apple QMaster 2.1, Final Cut Express HD 3.5. I don't have any of these installed and I'm assuming something was left behind, making it think it is still here. I could leave it since the files are so tiny, but it's just annoying that it keeps popping up every 8 hours or so.

manually get CD out of a powerPC mac mini recently (they didn't have their power cords or monitor with them for software eject). I followed some walkthroughs I found on google which had me pry the casing off, remove about 4 screws from the optical drive metal casing.

I just discovered the copy of imovie on my computer was installed by my son who got it from a torrent site. I unistalled it and now the app store will not let me purchase it through my account. I'm trying to make things right, but have hit a roadblock. I wanted to use the imovie app to work on some family video.
Info:
iMovie '11, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

I have landed up on the desktop with a temp file. Its been there for weeks, something to do with illustrator I think. I am confident I don't need it any more but I cannot delete it, says it cannot be deleted. Infact I cannot even move it, it just jumps straight back to its place.
I tried "sudo rm" in terminal but when I try to drag it onto the terminal window, it just moves back to the desktop and does not enter its location into terminal.

I had to remove some protected items in my trash. To do this I used the command. (rm -rf ./Trashes; rm -rf ~/.Trash) that worked. But now, every time I try to move something to the trash, mac will delete it directly permanent.

I just accidentally removed my SD card from my USB reader when I was zeroing out data from it. I've inserted it in again and have now zeroed out the data about 4 times in the MS-DOS format, now whenever I try to insert it into a camera or printer it will say it's not useable despite being able to use it on my Mac. Any ideas? I'd rather not have to go buy another SD card.

program that deletes configuration files and traces of programs not currently installed. After years of different macs and backups I probably have traces of a lot of junk and don't wish to go through every little folder and delete them manually. Is there a program that scans what you have in your applications folder or otherwise and detects what you have installed, what's not and deletes the orphaned configs and application support files?

Over the last year, when wanted to deleted something from iTunes, especially podcasts - I often by accident clicked the "keep files" option when asking about moving the files to the trash...
Now, I assume that these files are still clogging my HD - so - is there a way to delete these "lost" files automatically?
