Can't open the application "EPSON Scan.app"
I have an iMac running OS X Mavericks 10.9.1, connected by USB wire to an Epson WF-3540 All-in-One. Under Mountain Lion, all of the Epson’s functions worked by clicking on the Epson icon. Subsequent to the Mavericks update, the Epson programs, particularly the scanner, do not work, because in Mavericks "PowerPC applications are no longer supported". The option to use the iMac image scanner is not satisfactory for me. I do much scanning, and the image capture creates “.jpeg” files. A one-page .jpeg file is usually 2.1MB, while the Epson creates “.pdf” files that are generally less than 200KB.
I would appreciate a solution that will make the Epson icons work in Mavericks.
Thank you
Drew
To get your Epson WF-3540 All-in-One Printer operating, please download and install the following drivers in that order:
Epson Drivers and Utilities Combo Package : epson14892.dmg
Epson Scanner Driver and Epson Scan Utility v3.7.9.4 : epson15974.dmg
Epson Remote Printer Driver v9.17: epson15661.dmg
Once this process is completed, try scanning and printing with your Epson WF-3540 All-in-One printer.

Hello
I seem to be having trouble with my scanner and my MAC. Nothing has changed on my MAC but my scanner refuses to scan. And a couple of other items tell me that they are incompatable with my MAC. Any thoughts?
thanks
BevBev,
Unfortunatley you have not provided any useful information other than your Epson app will not run. I would recommend using Image Capture which is pre-installed on your computer.
To help us help you going forward please complete your profile so we know some basics about your system. You can find info on how to update your profile by clicking:

All of the sudden my System Preferences in Mavericks has stopped working and I get the error message:
You can't open the application "System Preferences.app" because it is not supported on this type of Mac.
It was working fine before this, and I have run Permissions Repair, restarted to another partition and run Diskwarrior and TechTool Pro, but none of those has helped. Anyone have any ideas why this happened, and what I can do to fix it?See this entire thread

After installing Maverick, my downloaded movies will not play in Quick Time. I receive the following error message:
You can’t open the application “QuickTime Player.app” because it may be damaged or incomplete. So I tried to unistall QT and I get an error that says, You can not delete this application as it is a requirement for the OSX.
Well I did find a way to delete it, by going into the various components and one by one deleting it. Now I reinstall it and the message is that this Quick Time is for an earlier version before Maverick 7. SMH....Now what.?Hello, terrygav.
I would recommend processing a reinstall of Mavericks.

You can’t open the application “Internet Explorer.app” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
Why are you using IE?
If some site is requiring IE, set your user agent string to claim your using IE.
What is my user agent?

The only viable solution is to upgrade to the latest versions of the PPC legacy software that will run under Mavericks.
Except for the other viable solution:
If you are unable or unwilling to upgrade to a version of Filemaker that runs natively under Mavercks, you can run your existing version of Filemaker by installing Snow Leopard Server into Parallels:

You can't open the application "iAd Producer.app" because it may be damaged or incomplete.
After installing Itunes Producer when I try to open I get this message: “iAd Producer.app” because it may be damaged or incomplete.
Whats the problem?
Thanks
JosefHi,
Just for clarification. Did you have iAd Producer already installed on your system? If so, which version? Then you installed iTunes Producer? And when you launch iTunes Producer, you get a message saying that iAd Producer is damaged/incomplete?
Thanks,

Can't open the applications for Hewlett Packard since upgrading my operation system
HP Photosmart C6280 All-in-One operating in OS 10.8.3.
I recently upgraded to OS10.8.3 and since doing so, I am getting this message, "You can't open the application HP Scan Pro becasue PowerPC applications are no longer supported." I tried to download a new driver and that didn't seem to work. What do I need to do?Hi,
The HP Scan Pro is an older software verison, intended for Leopard (10.5) or older OS versions.
Unplug the printer if it is connected via USB and uninstall any incompatible software by following the HP Uninstaller, located under Applications > Hewlett-Packard.
Next reboot your Mac and follow the steps below to install the printer on Mountain Lion:

Once installing the latest software you may scan by following the steps below:

Does anyone know what to do if you try to open iPhoto and the box comes up and says "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete." Previous to this I added some pictures and documents that were scanned from my Lexmark all-in-one. Now I can't open iPhoto.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List. -

Can't open the application "Adobe Illustrator CS6.app" because it is not supported...
UPDATE - Ahhh haaaa! If I log in with the guest account Illustrator works fine! WTF!? Oh well, at least I have a direction to be working towards, thanks for all the suggestions and assistance Adobe Community!
That was sarcasm by the way...
UPDATE - Just installed the latest Illustrator update from Adobe - still not loading. Tried reseting the iMac's PRAM, no luck.
UPDATE - I've just reinstalled the whole CS6 Suite, and the only things that have changed are that I now have a little white no entry sign over Illustrator (it still won't load) and I also have 1.5GB of application updates to do
I don't have any direct evidence but I'm guessing this is a Mavericks incompatibility judging by the other issues people are having with Illustrator. Any suggestions are welcome!
I've been using CS6 on my iMac for the past year (3.2GHz Intel Core i5, 32GB ram). Everything running fine, no problems.
Then I get the popup from Apple saying to upgrade to Mavericks, so I did. After updating my Java version, for the next two weeks everything carried on running fine. Until just now.
I finished working on an Illustrator file, saved it and then exited, only to remember I needed to make one more small change. So I clicked on the AI icon and got this error message;
'You can’t open the application “Adobe Illustrator CS6.app” because it is not supported on this type of Mac.' Eh???
I tried doing a reboot thinking that maybe something had just gone wonkey and needed resetting. Still no luck. So I reinstalled Java again. Nope. Then I tried every other CS6 app and they all ran fine.
Does anyone know what could cause Illustrator CS6 to be working fine for weeks and then suddenly become an unsupported app? These things always happen with you're right up against a deadline! I NEED ILLUSTRATOR WORKING NOW! HEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPP!
JamesI had the same issue and resolved it
I first remove the prefs folder and the plist files for illustrator in ~/Libary
next I logged off,
then I uninstalled illustrator using the adobe uninstaller(http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html)
Next I reinstall illstrator
after that it worked for me. -

when i try to open the iPhoto app, i getting a message "you can't open the application because it is not supported on this type of mac"
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
*Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always. -
