Canon Pixma MX700 and Adobe CS3

I am having a printing problem...I can print from all programs but Adobe CS3products (InDesign, Photoshop, Acrobat Professional, Illustrator). Anyone else having this problem? Or have a solution? Printing problem only seems to effect Adobe software products, I can print from other software. Running OSX 10.5.1 with Canon Pixma 700 Printer. Have heard that CS3 doesn't get along with 10.5. Any information would be helpful.

rkaufmann87, thanks for the suggesstion. Went throught the process but no luck.
The printer is connected via USB. I have checked the connections (and the cabling to see if there is a break of some kind) but they are all good both ends. The printer works perfectly. The problem is the scanner (thus I thought it was the drivers) MP Navigator looks for the scanner, cannot find it and give the error message says it cannot communicate with the scanner.

Using Image Capture to scan with Canon Pixma MX700

I previously had trouble connecting my Canon Pixma MX700 to my MBP, but soon figured out that I needed a new high speed USB 2.0 cable, versus the old one I was trying to use it with. Doh!
So now it prints without any trouble at all, and I know that all its features - printing, scanning, fax, copier, are supposed to be compatible with Leopard.
However, I'm still having issues scanning. I Googled and found a comment somewhere that with this specific model, one has to use Image Capture for the scanning portion, instead of the Canon software.
Great, so that explained the problem I was having trying to figure out how to GET it to communicate at all with the MBP (downloaded the latest scanner driver from Canon with no result).
But it still will not scan with Image Capture. Communication is fine- the image is detected and I can see it perfectly in the Image Capture window, am able to change options, etc. Once I drag and select the image I want to scan and click the scan button, nothing happens. Or more specifically, the button will be click-able and for about two seconds it appears to be working (with the scan button substituted by a cancel button), but then the scan button will pop back up and nothing appears in the folder I specified the image to be saved to.
Now I'm completely stumped. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!!!

With my MacBook running Leopard, I had been able to successfully scan multiple images by pressing the MX7000 scan button and capturing the images with MP Navigator. The MX700 is networked over WiFi. Early on, I learned that it seemed to be more reliable to drive this process using the scan button, rather than trying to initiate the scan from the MP Navigator UI.
However, recently things stopped working, and after the first image was scanned, subsequent scans would fail, with MP Navigator complaining about not being able to connect to the scanner. This sounds similar to the problem described in the original posting.
I went to the Canon USA support site and downloaded /installed the latest versions of the MX700 scan driver (13.9.0) and MP Navigator (1.0.4), both available under the "Drivers and Downloads" section for the MX700 support page (be sure to select "Mac OS X" from the pull-down menu).

The new updates seem to have solved the problem, and I can now scan multiple images one after the other. Again, I always initiate the scan from the button on the MX700, and always capture using MP Navigator, which has the really nice feature for creating and editing multi-page PDFs.

Canon Pixma MX700 won't scan

Last week my scanner on the Canon Pixma MX700 worked perfectly, easily. Today it won't work at all. I've got the new update for printers and scanners, no go. I've tried deleting printer and MP Navigator and finding software to reinstall from the Canon site. I've even followed instructions on a uTube video that suggests identifying Lion 10.7 as the software I'm using that included deleting and reinstalling the software and scanner/printer drivers. Nothing works.
Anyone got a fix for this. I use my scanner often (both for work and for home).
BTW my OS X is Version 10.9.1 (Mavericks)

Downloaded Canon printer/scanner drivers for Canon PIXMA MP520 and MX860 on Mac Book laptop, and they worked. However, when I downloaded the same two drivers on Mac Book Air, neither worked.

I wasn't aware that VueScan charged a yearly license.
You simply launch Image Capture and if the scanner is recognized it will be listed in the SHARED list in the left display column. Select the scanner name and the app will start an overview scan. You will also see a list of scanning options in the right display column (resolution, paper size, file output format, etc.
The above description is when everything is working correctly, which has been the case for me.
Good luck.

Installing new OS and Adobe CS3

Hello,
I have an old Powermac G3 with a Power PC G4 400MHz processor installed and 512 MB memory.
I would like to install Mac OSX10.4(Its currently running 10.3.9) and Adobe CS3.
Will it have enough memory to install these?
If not, how much memory can I install?
The memory is in the form of 4X 128MB memory at the moment.
Any help appreciated.

What size hard drive do you have & how much free space?
Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available from Apple. For other sources, do a Google search for MA453Z/A (10.4.6), MA190Z/A (10.4.3) and M9639Z/A (10.4) . Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) and not a model specific version (gray). Expect to pay (possibly a lot) more than the Apple list price of $129.
Also check this web store http://www.lacomputercompany.com/cgi-bin/rpcart/index.cgi?command=dispitem&type= sku&sku=19521
Possible Alternative - OS X Tiger 10.4 Upgrade DVD $74.95

After you install the base 10.4.x, update to the final Tiger version 10.4.11. Here's the link for the 10.4.11 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US

Canon Vixia HG21 and Premiere CS3

We just purchased a Canon Vixia HG21 and are unable to import the footage into Premiere CS3. Files are of .m2ts extension. Is Premiere CS3 not able to read these? Is CS4 better or able to? What are our options?

we have upgraded to CS4 and the program still can't import the m2ts files this camera generates
I assume that this means that you have the full-paid version of CS4. Is that correct? The reason that I ask is because the trial version will not handle anything MPEG.
Now, there have been reports of full-paid versions of CS4 reverting to the trial version, with the updating to CS4.2. If this has happened, again, you will not have support for anything MPEG. One test would be to find an MP3, or some other MPEG Asset, and try to Import that. If you get a failure, you likely have a trial version now. See Below:
The "cure" is to de-Activate your version and THEN uninstall. Run the Adobe Clean Script CS4 3 - 4 times, rebooting between each. Next step is to install the CS4 version, Activate again and then apply all updates to CS4.2. We do not know what causes a few updates to change the installation to the trial, but it happens too often. The above steps, in that order, work for all.
Good luck, and let us know if that helps.

Canon PIXMA 860 and 560 not recognized by Image Capture

I can scan from the printers to my MacBook. And I go to System Prefernces / Printers and Faxes and both are shown as printers and as scanners. I can open from their and scan but when I open image capture it doesn't find any scanners.
I down loaded and installed both the newest canon printer and scanner drivers as well as the newest ICA driver. Still they are not recognized.
What am I missing?

Just for testing purposes, I removed the canon printer, removed all canon software and updates from my system and then used the original CD that came with my 870 to reinstall the printer and lo and behold, Image Capture started working again for wireless scanning.
Hello and thanks for the feedback.
There are two scanner drivers available for many of the new models of Canon AIOs. There is the ICA driver and the Canon scanner driver.
During my tests on clean builds of 10.6.x I found that my Canon AIOs were able to print and scan via wireless by simply installing the Canon update provided by Apple. This update consisted of the then latest printer driver for many models of Canon AIO and inkjet and the ICA driver. Canon's scanner driver was not included as part of this download from Apple.
The ICA driver is installed in HD > Library > Image Capture > Devices and the package is called Canon IJScanner1. Later versions of the ICA driver also installed another package, Canon IJScanner2. These ICA drivers provide a minimal amount of scanning selections and only appear to work with Image Capture and Preview. Other applications like Canon's own MP Navigator and Adobe Acrobat Pro will not scan with just the ICA driver installed. The Canon scanner driver for the respective model is required.
From what you have said and from my own testing I propose that the original CD did not contain the ICA driver but the Canon scanner driver for the MX870. And with only this driver installed you were able to scan using Image Capture via the wireless. I don't recall ever testing a 10.6 build where only the Canon scanner driver was installed and not the ICA driver (it is present by default on 10.6 but only has older models of Canon AIO's - your MX870 is not there). Had I tested this I believe that I would have been able to scan via wireless using Image Capture.
I also propose that once you installed the Canon v2.4.1 update, which contains a version of the ICA driver package that is also available from Canon web sites, then Image Capture stopped using the Canon MX870 scanner driver and used the ICA driver instead, thus stopping you from wireless scanning.
Right now I am using a new build of 10.6.6 on my MBPro. So that I could print to my MP990 at home and an MG6150 at work I simply installed the v2.4.1 update and have printer and scanner queues in Print & Fax for both. I have not installed scanner drivers for either device and at home with my MP990 Image Capture does not show any device being available, while Preview does show the MP990 once I select 'Import from Scanner > Include Networked Devices'. Also, Acrobat Pro 9 does not show my MP990 being available.
And with regards to the v2.4.1 update, the drivers included are provided by Canon to Apple, just as the other vendor drivers are provided to Apple, to make life easier for us Mac users. The drivers are available individually and get downloaded and installed automatically when the respective model is connected to the Mac and no local driver is present. As for the package including all these individual vendor drivers, this would be created by Apple.

I have the latest mac desktop op mountain lion,plugged in the canon pixma ip90v and get a message drawing too much power from usb and it won't work?

I cannot get the canon pixma ip90v to work with the computer.I get a message about drawing too much power from the usb.

You need to plug in the power cord that was included with the printer and then use it with USB, or use the power cord included with the printer and access it wirelessly from your iMac. I access my Canon MP560 wirelessly from my iMac, which works well.

Spaces and Adobe CS3 (Creative Suite 3)

I've noticed a strange flaw with Spaces and Adobe Creative Suite 3.
I initially set up a space for InDesign CS3. Then, because I needed to test something, I attempted to set up a separate space for InDesign CS2. The Spaces Preference Pane won't allow this!
It appears as though the creator codes (or whatever) are identical for CS2 applications and CS3 applications. If you have both installed on your Mac, the system only sees the latest version-CS3. If you have a CS3 application assigned to a particular space and then try to add the corresponding CS2 program, nothing will change. If you delete the CS3 Spaces assignment and then try adding the CS2 application, it will simply add the CS3 version again.
My question? Has anyone found a way to get CS2 and CS3 programs to live together in the Spaces Preference Pane simultaneously?

Hi there,
Thanks for the additional information.
Please utilize any available Adobe uninstallers in the Programs and Features control panel. Once you have removed all Adobe software you can use the CC Cleaner Tool to help ensure complete removal. You can find details here- http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
Once you have completely removed all Adobe software and have run the CC Cleaner Tool you can then try reinstalling. If you need a fresh copy of the installation files the retail installers can be found at Download CS3 products.
Please let me know if this helps,
Madison

Windows 7 and Adobe CS3 Production Premium?

I'm about to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate, and would like to know if Adobe CS3 Production Premium will install on
Windows 7 64-bit?
Has anyone experience any problems? Is there anything I should be aware of, or extra steps that must be taken during the installation of CS3?
Thanks.

It should but why in the world would you stick with 32 bit video apps if you're moving to Win 7 64 bit? You can upgrade for a pretty reasonable amount and take advantage of the new machine. Put a boatload of RAM in there and you'll be a lot happier.
You can save $40 right now on Amazon with free shipping: http://amzn.to/e7sMSp
Finally, I'm assuming that this is about a new machine. If you truly mean you're upgrading Windows, then make sure you do a CLEAN INSTALL. Do not do an inplace upgrade of Windows.

Canon MXF files and Adobe Premiere Pro CS5

Ok I have searched every where for an answer to this problem but I cant find any answers. I have Master Collection CS5 and have just recently upgraded to a Canon XF 300 camera and a new PC with the following Stats
Windows 7 Pro
Intel i7 950 Quad Core Processor
24GB Corsair DDR 2000mhz Ram
Gigabyte X58A-UD3R
Zotac GeForce GTX 470 Amp Graphics card
Now I'm working on a 2 and a half minute corporate video using footage shot on the XF300 and 5 clips shot on the 7D. the footage looks amazing but thats not the problem the problem is that every time i load up the project now every time i scrub the timeline the pc freezes and the premiere crashes. I can't keep working like this, it also appears that Almost all of my 24gb is taken up.
I have been working on the project today and i have only managed to move 2 shots the rest of the time the PC is frozen or adobe is restarting. This is becoming a major joke now, is this a bug and will it be fixed? as no one can work like this.
I have a short film to start filming in a few weeks and im looking at having almost 200 shots to edit now at the moment I'm editing only 25 shots and adobe cant handle it how the hell am i going to edit almost 200?
Any news or answers will help me out as im at a loss

I have a system with the following specs...
Motherboard: ASUS P6X58D Premium
CPU:                 Core i7 950 3.0GHz Quad Core with HT 8meg Cache (with Hyperthreading)
RAM:                 Kingston 12 GB (3 x 4 GB) DDR3 - Hyper X 1600 MHz
GPU:                 NVIDIA GTX480 (accessing the Mercury Playback Engine)
OS:                    Windows 7 Professional 64bit version
System drive:   1 x WD VelociRaptor WD1500HLHX 150GB - 10,000 RPM

IO:                      Matrox MXO2 Mini with MAX
Adobe Premiere CS5
I've just played a 10 minute timeline with 12 layers of MFX files in realtime with no problems at all. It's only using 20% CPU and 45% RAM. I've done the same with different effects applied to each clip.The Mercury Playback Engine deals with the effects so they don't impact on the CPU or RAM usage. I'm not sure why I'm having success when you aren't. The Matrox MXO2 may possibly be a factor as that accelerates some processes.

Latest info on compatibility issues OSX 10.6 and Adobe CS3

I have had CS3 for some time. It cost an arm and a leg and does exactly what I need - improvements to later versions do not really impact me or improve the performance of my work with this program, so I want to keep what I have and what I know how to use really well. However, when Snow Leopard came out there was a lot of probs with compatibility, and Adobe said they would not support CS3 on Snow Leopard. I have updated 10.5 as far as I can. Now Leopard is so old I am starting to have probs with internet, I cannot access more recent versions of browsers I need, etc. So is anyone out there using Snow Leopard with CS3 and can you tell me what the issues are - I mainly use Photoshop and Illustrator. Do I have to take my mac off line to continue to work with CS3 or dare I update to Snow Leopard? Can anyone help me?

Have you ever tried it with Snow Leopard? CS2 and CS4 both work fine with it, so it is hard to believe that CS3 would not. Clone your system to an external drive using SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner and then upgrade the clone to Snow Leopard. Order the 10.6.3 disk from Apple and then upgrade to 10.6.8 using the combo updater. Once you are on Snow Leopard, you can use the Firefox browser, which is up to date and runs on 10.6 and above.
