Hi

I have a printing issue, that I simply can't solve by myself, so I need some advice!

The problem is that I can't print from Safari nor iTunes and maybe other applications aswell, but I can print from Pages without any problems at all!

In iTunes
Today I told a friend about a playlist that I have made in iTunes and he wanted to see it, so I decided to print it to him as a PDF-file. I clicked "Print" in the File menu, and the dialog where you choose the kind of print and theme you want showed up as expected. I chose the options I wanted and clicked the "Print" button and a new dialog showed up (possibly the one to choose whether you want it as print or PDF) but it disappeared instantly! I tried a second time, but the same thing happened, I barely got to see the dialog before it closed by itself.

In Safari
When I try to print an article e.g., the drop down printing window appears, but after trying to save the print as PDF, nothing happens and the drop down windows will not go away, so I have to force quit Safari to visit another website.

In Pages
I click "Print" and it prints as I want. It seems that there is no trouble in Pages.


I have tried deleting the "com.apple.print"-files in ~/Library/Preferences and it had a small effect. The dialog in iTunes was visible in more than a second before it disappeared, but the next time I tried, it disappeared instantly again.

I have also tried installing all the printer drivers on the Snow Leopard DVD, but also without any luck.

And yep, I have googled for more than an hour on this issue and found no answer.

My software:
Mac OS 10.6.3
iTunes 9.1.1
Safari 5.0
Pages '09 v. 4.0.3


If some of you have suggestions that can solve my problem, please help me!
