Epson scanner error message: missing file info.plist

I've been wrestling with an epson scanner/printer I got free with my mbp a year ago. The printer worked fine, but every time I tried installing the scanner drivers, I was foiled by the error message "missing file: info.plist..." I was reduced to scanning on my sloooow dell desktop at work. After a few rounds with epson support, they suggested I install the drivers on a different user account on my computer. Problem solved! It works, even on the original user account.

    @ Alternatively purchase an Elements 9 or 10.  Holding Elements13 but that needs OS 10.8 (Lion) and much of my data is in Appleworks, which is incompatble
    Apologies if I am using this incorrectly.  My first time here

    Hi.  Thanks for coming back to me.  I am using Mountain Leopard (OSX 10.6.8).  Had major problem and have re-formatted my H/D and re-installing software.  Must have lost a file in the process.  Would upgrade to Lion only I have a lot of vital data in Officeworks, but that is incompatible with Lion.

  • Error message: Missing PDF maker files in Word 2007

    OK, I am beyond frustrated. I have had nothing but trouble with Windows Vista and Adobe Acrobat. Please help!!!
    What happens: first, the pdf addin for Word 2007 suddenly becomes disabled, for no apparent reason. Forget about trying to re-enable it through the Add-Ins menu, because Word tells me that the "connected state of Office Add-Ins registered in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE cannot be changed". This is a problem for me, because I use a special font (Vietnamese) that sometimes gets corrupted when running pdf maker. The only consistent way I have found to avoid this problem is to run the pdf maker as "Quick PDF" and as far as I can see that option is only available through the pdf addin in Word, I have never been able to find it when I open the Acrobat program and create a pdf from there.
    Second problem: shortly after the pdf addin becomes disabled, my Acrobat program loses the ability to create pdfs altogether. I get the error message "Missing PDF maker files". Yes, I have tried repairing the installation and re-starting my computer per the instructions given. It doesn't fix the problem. I also tried looking in the Knowledge Database on this website, but it appears that the instructions they have to fix the problem there are for earlier versions of Word, not 2007, because my version of word does not look like the version of Word in their little videos.
    This is the second time this has happened. The first time I resolved the problem by a) re-installing Acrobat, which is a pain because it involves calling Adobe and wading through their customer service to get a new installation number, and b) paying a computer repair service to dig deep into the guts of my computer and convince it to change the Office Add-ins to allow the pdf addin again. It worked for about 6 months, and now I have the same problem again. For some reason Vista is spontaneously disabling Acrobat.
    I simply cannot deal with this every few months. We all know that Vista is a crappy program, but I run a business and I need a program that works with whatever crappy program Microsoft puts out. Please, can anyone give me suggestions about how to re-enable these functions when Vista disables them?
    Thanks in advance!

  • I keep getting the error message "Missing PDFMaker files. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode"

    I keep getting the error message "Missing PDFMaker files  Do you want to run the installer in repair mode"when I try to convert a file into a pdf.  I have tried uninstalling then reinstalling but I continue to get the message.  I am able directly print file, but there are some errors in the pages, but some of them have font errors. Please advise.

    Hey Suzanne,
    Could you please let me know what Acrobat version are you using and what kind of file are you trying to convert to PDF.
    If you are using an MS Office application, then PDF Maker has to be an active plug-in for the PDF conversion.
    Have you tried using Print to PDF option from the File menu for the same?
    Please check and then let me know.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 and am trying to upgrade to 13 - getting error message that "file archive part" of Adobe 13 is missing. When I try to download installers for older products it only goes back to v7, not v5 what to do next?

    TDFields you will want to ensure the 7z and exe file are in the same folder/directory.  You can find more details at Find a download link on Adobe.com.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • HELP! ERROR MESSAGE: Missing PDFMaker Files

    Hello-
    My Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 has been running perfectly fine for over a year now. However, today I went to create a pdf. and I received the following error message:
    Missing PDFMaker Files
    Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?
    So I said yes, and then restarted my computer. That didn't fix it.
    I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Professional and re-installed it. That didn't fix it.
    I really have no idea what to do. It's extremely frustrating because I have CS2 and the phone support people said they couldn't help me because I don't have the newer version. I'm looking for any sort of solution to this problem because it makes this program virtually useless.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Printing from Preview produces error message "The file couldn't be opened".

    Hi,
    Ever since the upgrade to OS X 10.8, I get the error message "The file couldn't be opened" each time I want to print from Preview. I just have to click "OK" and then everything prints fine, but if anyone knows how to get rid of this message, it would be even better!
    I have run "Verify disk permissions" without success.
    The system is on an SSD volume whereas my home volume is on an internal HD. But other users with (smaller) accounts residing on the system volume have the same problem.
    Each time I open the print dialog, the following message appears in the logs:
         com.apple.Preview.TrustedBookmarksService[2159]: Failure to de-serialize bookmark data file.
    I removed  files related to Preview in ~/Library/Preferences/
    There is no *.plist file in ~/Library/Application Support/Preview
    Thanks!

    Pages 5.2 Mac OSX 10.9.2
    Start Pages app
    Create a blank document

    Select Mac Device and find your user folder or favorite, Desktop (not iCloud)
    Error: the file "Untitled.pages" couldn't be opened!?!
    Repeat giving the document a different name and it works
    Since when do we write error messages with "n't"?
    Usually a well written error message offers a suggestion as to what you might do about it?
    Since it says opened and I clicked on Save, there is a bug in there somewhere.
    All I was trying to do today was copy and paste some text from a website into numbers spreadsheet
    Both Edit > Paste options but the text in one cell so I tried to save it as a text file first to try and import the data
    Text Edit does not have a text only export format so before loading Terminal and starting vi or emacs, I tried pages. I'll go try XCode's editor or my Windows 7 vm with notepad and openoffice
    I miss the old Pages with the Appleworks importer, this one needs more Quality Assurance Testing IMHO

  • Error message - Original file could not be found

    When I open itunes, and try to click on a song, there is an "!" and I get the error message "original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
    It does this for every song. I have to trace it down to "My Music\itunes\itunes\itunes music" and under that I have hundreds of files by artist.
    How can I listen to the songs so I don't have to click on each one to make them play?
    I hope you can help me.

    First, a correction from my previous post: At the beginning I meant to write The iPod wasn't designed to sync playlist-related information back to iTunes.
    And as for the polydorus link, let's try this .
    Sorry about that.
    Does that make sense? Do I need both folders?
    No, in the end you'll only need one but I'm still not sure which one.
    *I think the difference is there are no folders like in wndows, but the itunes library leads me directly to my library on the itunes website
    I don't understand what you mean by the itunes library leads me directly to my library on the itunes website.
    It sounds like there is only one iTunes database - iTunes Library.itl - file and that it's in your iTunes1 folder. Whether or not that is the case, what I'd like you to do is follow the instructions in this article in the Apple Knowledge Base for opening an alternate iTune Library file. Select the Choose Library option and use the navigtion window that appears to make your way to an .itl file.
    Select the .itl and iTunes will open with a Library that may - or may not - be different than what you last saw: somewhat different contents or exclamation marks may be present again.
    If it's not a library you're happy with, close iTunes, wait ten seconds or so and then repeat the procedure looking for another .itl file - each one contains references for a different iTunes library.
    When you find a library you're happy with, i.e. all the contents are listed and no exclamation marks, make a note of the location of that .itl. It's the one you're going to want to work with.
    Using that database file, you can go back to iTunes, right-click various songs > Get Info > Summary tab and look to the bottom of that window to find out where that Library is being directed for those files. Make a note of that location.
    When we know those two things, we should be able to proceed from there with deleting things.
    In the future, when I buy new songs from apple, where will they automatically get stored?
    In the location that's been selected in iTunes Edit menu > Preferences > Advanced tab for the iTunes Music folder.
    What will happen when I sync my ipod on the computer?
    That brings us back to the beginning of this post, by default the synch goes from iTunes to your iPod. So you shouldn't synch your iPod unless there's a satisfactory Library being displayed in iTunes.

  • Error message "Live file system repair is not supported."

    System won't boot. Directed to Disk Utility to repair but get error message "Live file system repair is not supported."  Appreciate all help.

    I recently ran into a similar issue with my Time Machine backup disk. After about 6 days of no backups - I had swapped the disk for my photo library for a media project; I reattached the Time Machine disk and attempted a backup.
    Time Machine could not backup to the disk. Running Disk Utility and attempting to Repair the disk ended up returning the "Live file system repair is not supported" message.
    After much experimentaion with disk analysis softwares, I came to the realization that the issue might be that the USB disk dock wasn't connected directly to the MacBook Pro - it was daisy-chained through a USB Hub.
    Connecting the USB disk dock directly to the MBP and running Disk Utility appears to have resolved the issue. DU ran for about 6 hours and succesfully repaired the disk. Consequently, I have been able to use that Time Machine disk for subsequent backups.
