Espon scanner not supported in lion

I have been using Snow Leopard with my 2010 i5 Quad Core 27 inch iMac.  With rosetta I still could use Appleworks 6, my Espon Perfection 1200 scanner, iMovie HD, File Maker Pro, and other Photoshop applications.
When I try to open up the scanner, it says that you cannot open it up because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.  I went to the Espon website and checked for software updates, and when I selected my scanner and selected software updates it says that no new updates are available.
I don't know much about partitioning my hard drive to put back in the Snow Leopard operating system, and still use Lion but I can see that by not having rosetta I can't open up a lot of older application that I use.  I backup my hard drive to a portable device before installing Lion so I don't know if that will help me with the older applications.
Thanks,
DaisyMay

For the scanner problem, go to the Epson support page http://www.epson.com/support .  On the right side click on Mac OS X Lion Support. Choose your scanner. Follow the directions.  Hopefully it will work.
Some of the applications you listed have Intel Mac versions.  Technology marches on. Part of the upgrade process (be it a new OS, a new computer or whatever) is to upgrade everything around it.  It can get expensive to stay up with technology.

  • Microsoft apps are not supported by Lion?

    Is it true microsoft apps are not supported by Lion? I just upgraded and now I'm getting a message my microsoft apps are no longer available. Any upgrades to bring them online?

    You have Office 2004 and that won't run on Lion. You have three options:
    1. Upgrade to Office 2008 or 2011
    2. Download the free Office suite Libreoffice
    3. Buy Apple's 'Numbers' (for spreadsheets), 'Keynote' (for Powerpoint) and/or 'Pages' (for word processing) programs from the App store.
    A fourth option would be to revert to Snow Leopard.

  • Firefox mac osx version does not support mac-Lion os full screen window mode. When will you bring this?

    In macbook pro with lion os apple gives a full-screen-mode icon in the top right corner of the window, which will be used to open that view in different window. But firefox does not support this. Even chrome supports it.
    When will you bring this feature to firefox?. Currently I am in firefox 8.0.1

    No answers, but Mozilla is aware of the new release of Lion, and hopefully are working on solving some of the known issues. There are some rather formal technical discussions and reports, as mentioned in this contributors thread: [/forums/contributors/707160]

  • My MacBook Pro does not support Mountain Lion.  How can I download Lion?

    I was waiting to update my MacBook Pro until after Mountain Lion came out.  It turns out my Mac is not supported.  Is there a way to buy Lion?  I can't seem to find it on the App store.

    call 1-800-697-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 and ask for sales. After you pay the $29 they will send you a link with instructions on how to download it.

  • HP 1005 scanner not supported error

    the error say scanner configuration not supported close window and use TWAIN software. please help.

    Some scanner models are difficult to support in VueScan because the author is unable to ascertain the control codes for a particular model. As I suggested you might ask HP tech support if they have scanner drivers for other models that will work with yours.
    However, the reality is that new scanners are pretty cheap and for the money probably much better than the scanner you have. Maybe it would be better simply to buy a new scanner that you know is fully compatible and comes with Mac drivers for OS X (both PPC and Intel versions.)

  • Roland PC-300, not supported by Lion?

    After upgraded to Lion, and trying to reinstall the Roland driver, it's a no go.
    When I tried to "uninstall", I get a message about, not supporting Power PC stuff.
    That make sense? Is there a fix?
    Thanks

    There is a very simple - almost too easy - way to get the PC-300 running under ANY platform:
    Forget USB and use MIDI!
    Okay, you need a MIDI interface or a soundcard with a MIDI connection. In my case it's the Komplete Audio 6 USB device which has a MIDI output.
    I consider this to be the ideal solution which is future proof. You just don't have to mess around with old drivers or depend on the manufacturer to release new ones.
    It's as simple as that - hope this helps!
    Cheers
    P.S.: The linked drivers mentioned before are for the PCR-300 which is a completely different device. They are not working with the PC-300.

  • HP Scanner not working with Lion?

    The print function is fine but the scanner won't work.  I have tried removing the printer and reinstalling, but that didn't work.  Any ideas?

    That older printer apparently does NOT have a compatible Lion driver.
    People who need to SCAN & PRINT without a compatible driver from their manufacturer can use Apple's very basic "PRINT & SCAN" utility in System Preferences:
    Click the Apple menu ( ), and then click System Preferences .
    Click Print & Scan ( ).
    Click Scan , and then click Open Scanner .
    Click Show Details . The details of the scan display, including options to modify scan settings such as output type.Figure 2: Example of the Show Details scanning screen
    Change any settings as necessary, and then click Scan .

  • What software can replace iWeb since it is not supported on Lion?

    I had to buy a new MacBook Pro.  Mine was stolen.  I had used iWeb on my last MacBook Pro to set up a website for my business.  I therefore do not
    have access to iWeb and Lion doesn't support it.
    What app or software will let me work with my existing website?

    As you now know iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two features will be broken.
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: iW14 - Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    NOTE: the iLife 11 boxed version Is no longer available at the online Apple Store.  To get a copy of iDVD if you don't have one you'll have to try Amazon.com or eBay.com.
    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

    It has been very widely reported that Rosetta support was being dropped. Adobe CS4 and CS5 work fine and I think I have seen reports of CS3 working as well. Your programs that are not working are well out of date and if they are that imortant to you then revert to Snow Leopard with your SL Time Machine backup.

    And to the other poster, I haven't seen anybody use Real Player for so long, I'd forgotten about it. A much outdated and unsupported program that was superseeded years ago by many superior audio/visual programs.
    Good Luck

  • Mac OS X Server v10.7 does not show the ethernet link aggregated interface I created in Server Hardware Network Dialogue window. Are link aggregated ethernet connections not supported in Lion Server?

    Mac OS X Server v10.7 does not show the ethernet link aggregated interface i created. Does Lion server support ethernet link aggregated interfaces?

    Thanks for responding Cold--
    Hardware: Mac Pro  3.0 GHZ quad core xeon
    I read the link but it still does not explain why the aggregated dual ethernet interface does not show up in the Network tab of the hardware section Lion Server. I was able to see it on the network and looks to be using a single static IP that I assigned. My concern was that is this supported and will it allow for failover and double performance of the single network interface.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks again!

  • Old airport not support mountain lion

    After upgrade to mountain lion, my old airport could not be used any more because it is supported by airport tools 5.6.1 only. does it mean I should scrap the old one and buy new one?

    AirPort Utility 5.6.1 will run on Mountain Lion, but you will need to use a workaround to install it.
    See this article for more details:

  • Since I have learned my late 2007 Macbook 3,1 will not support Mountain Lion, what is the best way to upgrade from 10.6.8 to 10.7 Lion?

    Can I download the latest version of Lion from Apple. I have heard that if I call Apple Sales support I can still get Lion from Apple. Lastly, what about Lion via the Thumb USB?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Correct. Call Apple to purchase OS X Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 If you want the OS X Lion USB Thumb Drive, you will have to search it in Amazon or eBay. Make sure that the USB drive is white with a grey Apple logo.
    Then, make a backup of your data before upgrading, and check that your applications are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com After checking everything, you can upgrade to OS X Lion

  • Now my MS Office doesn't work because powerpc applications are not supported by Lion.  what now?

    Does this mean that I have to purchase a new version of MS Office that is supported by Mac chipset?  Wish I'd known that before purchasing Lion.  Is there a way to work around this? 

    There are already plenty of threads on this subject. Just search PowerPC or Rosetta and Lion.
    Yes, you have to upgrade the nearly decade-old software.
    No, there isn't a workaround, although there are alternatives to Office.
