CS5 won't recognise scanner

Hi
Any ideas why CS5 has stopped recognising my Canon 8000 scanner. There was no problem until recently. Now when I open CS5 the scanner wakes up, but is not shown in the import menu. Have tried several ideas to resolve this without any luck.

pgmeier rules!
I downloaded what you mentioned and have both good and bad news.....the zipped file has only  twain32 (hoping to get twain64) but at least this is another positive step forward and another workaround for me.  I noticed the same twain32 plug-in is also in the Win64 folder.  Just for giggles I deposited twain32 into both the c:\Program Files (x86)   and c:\Program Files .......if I call up PS 32-bit I can now scan via twain but alas no joy when I attempt the same using PS 64-bit
Only way is still ..  Import --> Wia support  if you have your heart set on using PhotoShop 64-bit
I am amazed Adobe didn't even put thought into why a twain64 plug-in is a requirement for the real world....there are still many of out out here that still use flatbed scanners on ocassion to import graphics!

  • BIG PROBLEM.....Flash CS5 won't recognise Freehand files

    Hi,
    CS5 upgrade installed onto a PC that has not sseen Flash before.
    Freehand files (FH9) that import to Library in Flash Pro8, when I try for same in CS5 the fh9 file is not recognised. One or more files were not imported as there problems reading them, the message says.
    I have a number of those that work in Flash8, same message, so its not a corrupted file.
    I then opened the fh9 file into Freehand MX and saved it. I tried importing that, still no joy.
    Using Flash CS5 for the first time, the Import to Library browser window didnt show any files, I thought that a bit odd, then selected show all files and it showed the fh files.
    It won't import them though !
    Help !

  • Image Capture won't recognise scanner

    Until recently (10.6.5?) I have used Image Capture very successfully to scan with a Canon MP610 multifunction printer, preferring its no nonsense simplicity to the Canon software (MP Navigator EX).  But opening Image Capture to initiate a scan now results in an interminable delay before the printer shows up in the Devices pane on the left of the window while the message "No camera or scanner connected" is displayed in the centre pane. The delay is usually several minutes, sometimes longer and then I give up and go back to MP Navigator.
    I have tried remedies suggested in other forums (deleting and re-adding the printer, resetting the printing system, changing the USB port and prayer) but to no avail. My research suggests that this issue also occurs with other brands of printer.   I thought that the 10.6.7 update might have sorted it but it didn't.  Does anyone have any other suggestions so that I can resume digitising 30 years worth of photos?

    I would look for apps that would use the USB port, such as other imaging applications for cameras. If you check Activity Monitor you can also see what background services are running - could be something here that sticks out, especially if it is from another printer/camera vendor or even another Canon application for that matter.
    Checked the USB port situation - only the printer is using one.  To my relatively untutored eye, nothing sticks out from Activity Monitor.  I plug in a Canon camera quite often but it's not connected right now.
    Another thing you can try is creating another account and then logging in with this account. If this other account works okay then you can look at some service starting just for your main account. This could be found in Accounts > Login Items or Home folder > Library > LaunchAgents.
    Created a Test account and logged into it (goodness me, how my normal admin account has changed!) but the problem still remains.  The LaunchAgents folder contained a file named com.macupdate.desktop5.scanner.plist and I immediately thought this is it but, no, trashing it made no difference.   Login items are
    iTunesHelper
    Butler
    AppTrap
    YouControlTunesEngine
    MagiCal
    iphoto buddy menu
    Rainlendar2-Lite
    Captur
    DropCopy
    SurplusMeterAgent
    FontExplorerXAutoload
    CornerClickBG
    finderpop-daemon
    Dropbox
    SophosUIServer (All Users)
    which will give you some idea of how my mind works but probably little else.  Many thanks for your suggestions...

    My Creative Cloud won't recognise Apps I already have installed. I have since installed 1 more and this is the only one recognised and therefore updatable. I've tried logging out of my account and quitting Cloud then changing the opm.db file to opm.db.old in Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE and restarting but still the same. Any help much appreciated!

  • I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

  • BLACKBERRY TORCH - won't turn on and desktop manager won't recognise it - I can't get my contacts

    Hi all,
    I'm new to this so please bare with me.
    I'll try and be as brief as possible. Up until last week I had the Blackberry Torch 9800. I was due an upgrade and about two days before I went to contact my network provider my Torch battery died (it wasn't broken at this point, it just was drained and needed charged) so I went to charge it and it did that thing where the battery was so dead it wouldn't even switch on whilst charging.
    I plugged it in and rather than charge like normal it was completely dead and the only activity it offered me was two red flashing lights as it 'charged'. From that moment on it has not turned on. Dead as can be. If I plug to charge (wall charger OR USB port) I get the two bright red flashing notification lights but it will not go on.
    Anyway rather than send it to be repaired I opted for a new phone as I was due an upgrade anyway and intended on doing so whether the Torch was alive and kicking at this point or not. Cut a long story short I got my new blackberry (9360 curve) it is all set up with my e-mail etc, media card and same sim card swapped over but as Blackberry insist on your contact numbers being saved to the handset and not the sim my contacts are stuck in my Torch 9800.
    When I go to plug the Torch in to Desktop manager to get the contacts saved to there and then sync over to my new handset the Torch is so dead that DManager won't even read/recognise it. My network say since this is not an issue with network etc they can't really help and gave me a number for Blackberry services in England somewhere (they are office hrs so can't phone until Monday morning).
    Please can someone help? I have my new 9360 all up and running but my contacts are stuck in my Torch and that is the only place they are? DManager won't recognise the Torch because it is dead - except the two flashing lights - and therefore won't let me at the contacts that way.
    ANY help would be appreciated - please not too techinal as not great with all of that side of things!
    Sorry for the long post.

  • ITunes won't recognise my iPod on USB 2.0, only 1.1

    my computer won't recognise my iPod touch 1.1.4 when it is connected via my USB 2.0 PCI card, only when it is plugged in via the motherboards inbuilt USB 1.1 ports. I have plugged it into other computers (all pc's) and it works fine on their USB 2.0 ports.
    What could be causing this?
    cheers.

    Try this if you have not already. This removes and reinstalls ALL Apple software and sometimes that is required.

  • HELP NEEDED! My wife's 5c won't recognise on my laptop anymore. I plug it in and the laptop makes a sound but won't show up the phone. I only recently discovered this problem when I upgraded. It will recognise my 5c and even the iPad but not her 5c

    I discovered this problem when I upgraded my iPhone 4 to a 5c.
    My laptop will recognise my 5c and even the wife's iPad but won't recognuse her 5c, when I plug it in it makes a sound but just doesn't show up in iTunes.
    It DID work on my laptop as recently as November when I backed up her phone and updated her software but like I say ever since I upgraded it just won't recognise her 5c but does mine.
    I just can't think what is wrong? I haven't messed around with anything on the laptop or messed around with the wife's settings on her 5c
    HELP!!!!

    I would test with another computer and another cable
    if it the device would not be detected by any computer I
    would say that it's connector was broken

  • My iPad won't recognise my air printer, it is connected as I checked by typing in IP address into Safari, but when I try to print it just says cannot find any air printers.

    my Ipad won't recognise my printer. It is connected as I have typed the IP address into Safari which confirms connectivity. Spoken with canon who suggest it it is a problem with IOS not recognising the functionality. When I try to print it says cannot find any air printers. Printer is working via LAN set up on my laptop. Don't want to have to spend £25 to speak to an apple support team. Has anyone else experienced this problem. Printer is a canon MG 3250.

    A few things you could try:
    Reboot your modem/router.
    Turn your printer off then on again & make sure it's connected to the network.
    Reboot your iPad holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until the apple logo appears then release & let the iPad boot up normally.
    Try going into Settings on your iPad & select General->Reset->Reset Network Settings.
    Also, have a look at this:

  • Since updating to Lion the iMac won't recognise the external hard drive (maxtor) when waking from sleep mode,

    Hi All, Since updating to Lion, my imac won't recognise the ext HDD (Maxtor) when waking from sleep mode, I have tried another port, diisc utility (Ext HDD not listed in here) but nothing works. I now find that I have to restart the imac to get the drive recognised..which is fine until the imac goes into sleep mode then I lose the drive and have to restart etc etc.....anyone suffering same issue.  The Ext Drive worked perfectly until the upgrade..

    Thanks for this, and apologies for delay in replying...in between seeing your post I backed up the ext hdd to another mac and used the disc utility to erase and repair and then re mounted the ext hdd. OK.  I have then tested the ext hdd being recognised when waking from sleep mode a few times and everything appears to be fine. If this doesn't work (long term) I will follow the instructions as you have suggested....
    I now have a new problem with my HP printer (Photosmart Plus) which is not being recognised by a new wireless router..Ok whilst the router is switch on and I have reconfigured the printer..but when the router is switched off overnight and then switched back on...I get a 'printer is not connected' message and have to go through the re configure routine all over. I am minded to think this is a router problem as the same issue is happening to my wifes Mac Book Pro (which is only a few weeks old)...any suggestions..

  • Old Itunes library (from PC) on external hard drive - Mac won't recognise

    I feel like I've tried absolutely everything, so hopefully someone here can help.
    I had my Itunes library stored on an external disc. This was when I was using Itunes on a PC. It all ran fine....
    Now we've upgraded to a Mac and for the life of me I cannot get Itunes to recognise the library.
    First I just tried changing the folder location with no luck. Now I've tried holding down alt when starting Itunes, I've located the folder, and at first it seemed all was well as the albums (sans artwork) all appeared in Itunes. But when I try to play them or send songs to my Iphone, it says it can't locate the file. I've tried to then manually point it to the external drive and the old library and it still won't recognise it.
    Can anyone suggest anything??

    It didn't recognise with the older version I had before upgrading.(Can't really remember what version it was...)

  • Adobe Photoshop CS5 won't launch after Mac update

    I updated my mac yesterday to Maverick and now Adobe Photoshop CS5 won't launch.  Can you tell me what files I need to delete to get it to launch.  I tried reinstalling it, and that didn't help.
    thanks

    It's very strange.  When I try to double click on the program to open it,
    it's like I'm doing nothing.  it sort of blinks like it's going to open but
    does nothing.  That's the way it is if I control click and try to open too.
    I did try to reboot.  Is there something I could delete in the Library
    file or something?
    thanks

  • Photoshop CS5 won't open .kmz files

    Photoshop CS5 won't open .kmz files. I did a fresh install of Google Earth, opened it, saved a place, and saved a .kmz file. It reopens fine in Google Earth.
    When I try to open it in Photoshop, this message pops up:
    File Format Error
    This file is from a previous version of Google Earth or it is not a Google Earth file
    I get this message regardless of the following:
    - ps is closed and i right click the kmz and choose ps (rather than google earth) to open it
    - ps is open and i double click the kmz
    - ps is open and i choose file/open and select the kmz
    - ps is open and i have created and saved a new psd file, then choose 3D/New Layer from 3D File/ and select the kmz
    I have tried the usual remedies, change rwx permissions, repair permissions, delete prefs. No luck.
    Any thoughts? Software versions are below.
    Thanks.
    - Photoshop CS5 Extended 12.0.4 x64 (doesn't work in x32 either)
    - Google Earth 6.0.3.2197
    - OS 10.6.8

    I was trying to see (since Photoshop Extended touts the ability to open kmz files) if I could open a 3D Google Earth file and edit it in Photoshop. A file like this for instance http://ecotope.org/anthromes/maps/. After more research I've learned that kmz is nothing more that a container format - you can change the extension to zip and see what's in it.
    I ran across this tidbit in the Photoshop CS3 Extended forum:
    Photoshop CS3 Extended supports the ability to import .kmz files created from Google Earth 4 or exported from Sketch-up in the Google Earth 4 format. Photoshop CS3 Extended cannot open Google Earth files. If you have a Google Earth file, you can convert it to a Google Earth 4 format with the free version of Sketch-up.
    So, theoretically if I could get a kmz into Google Earth 4 format, I could open it in Photoshop. But I haven't had any success importing a kmz or kml into SketchUp. Even just making a native sketchup file and trying to import that in psd gives a ram error.
    Probably I'm wishing for the moon.
