HP AIO: Scan to Computer STILL missing under Snow Leopard?

Has anyone gotten any info on the status of the "Scan to Computer" and "Copy to Computer" (for reading memory card) under Snow Leopard? Being able to scan and copy files from my AIO directly to my Mac under Leopard was freaking awesome. Now I have to acquire images from the Mac (which works) and there is no way to automagically copy over files from the card reader at all.
It's a real bummer to have to use a Windows machine to do these things... Especially since it was working fine in Leopard and we've been waiting months with no work and the only HP person appears to no longer be able to post here.

Uh-huh. I beg to differ and think it is an Apple issue and an Image Capture issue in particular.
I have a nice new Epson SX610FW that is absolutely stunning in Windows Vista.
It also has Epson Scan application that does scan but Image Capture sticks and will not talk to the scanner.
Plus on Windows I can fax from the 'pooter using Epson Fax, in OS 10.5 or 10.6 no fax option is available.
I am of the opinion that print, scan and fax is broke in OS 10.6
So, in my case on a wi-fi capable all-in-one:
Windows Vista Home Premium
Scan
Print
Fax
On the device
Copy
Fax
send scan to a declared network computer (I have not tried this too thoroughly but it looks broke on OS X)
In OS 10.5
Scan
Print
no Fax
or 10.6
Scan with Epson Scan but not with Image Capture or Preview (Preview fires up Image Capture with no option to use Epson Scan instead)
Print
no Fax
Why won't OS X do Fax easily from an all-in-one - a relatively new all-in-one at that?
Interim conclusion
Image Capture is broked in OS 10.6
Fax is strange in OS X

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless Won't Scan Under Snow Leopard

    After installing Snow Leopard, my new HP Officejet Pro Wireless 8500 all-in-one printer won't scan. It delivers the following error message: "No Scan Options - refer to device documentation".
    Also, when I attempted to check and adjust scan settings using HP's Scan Destinations program, that program hangs and cannot save any setting changes. Then I have to use "Force Quit" to stop the program from hanging up while saving.
    HP's software update reports the printer software is up to date.
    It appears there are a ton of printer problems appearing for people after installing Snow Leopard, but I sure would appreciate any help on solutions if someone also has this problem.
    Thanks much.

    I also just tried connecting my 8500 wireless printer directly via usb and then downloading the HP printer drivers from Apple downloads and reinstalling.
    The install hangs nearly forever on the final step, but eventually says the driver install was successful. However, then when connected via usb, I am unable to print. Printing works when you reconnect via the wireless on the 8500.
    So connecting via usb and reinstalling HP printer drivers does not solve the issue. And it's puzzling, because the list of supported printers under Snow Leopard lists the Officejet Pro8500 Wireless as supporting both printing and scanning.
    Somebody has it wrong.
    If this scanning problem continues very long, I may be forced to uninstall Snow Leopard, because my printer is brand new.

  • I recently upgraded to Mavericks from Snow Leopard. Does Snow Leopard still exist on my Mac? If so, is it possible to restart under Snow Leopard in order to run PowerPC apps? If not, is there an OS available in 64 bit that supports PowerPC apps? Mav ***.

    I recently upgraded to Mavericks from Snow Leopard. Does Snow Leopard still exist on my Mac? If so, is it possible to restart under Snow Leopard in order to run PowerPC apps? If not, is there an OS available in 64 bit that supports PowerPC apps? Mav ***.

    The only reason I upgraded to Mavericks was because my Snow Leopard OS was 32 bit, which I was told would support only 4GB of RAM.
    That wasn't quite right. You can put in as much RAM as your Mac's hardware supports. The division is in the apps themselves. A 32 bit app can't use more than 4 GB or RAM. A 64 bit app can use much more.
    For example, as a 32 bit only version, Photoshop CS3 can't use more 4GB of RAM, no matter how much you actually have installed. CS4 or later can use all the RAM you want to throw at it.

  • I have Windows XP Pro as my Bootcamp option under Snow Leopard. If I upgrade to Lion will I still be able to use this Bootcamp Windows XP operating system as I dont have Windows 7 yet

    I have Windows XP Pro as my Bootcamp option under Snow Leopard which works very well indeed.
    I would like to upgrade to Lion but am concerned re its lack of support for Bootcamp Windows XP
    Can I upgrade to Lion and boot into my old Windows XP BootCamp partition as I do at present OR
    must I buy Windows v7 and install under the new Bootcamp system.
    Also what happens to my Snow Leopard Time Machines backups - can I see them under Lion?
    Many thanks

  • Canon iP6700D Tray Choices Disappear Under Snow Leopard

    I have a Canon iP6700D. In 10.5 and earlier, one could select between the automatic sheet feeder and the cassette through selections under "Quality and Media". Those options seem to have disappeared under 10.6.1 using the September 11th Canon printer driver. Nosing about in Google, others seem to have the same problem with this and other printers under Snow Leopard. I've tried uninstalling the printer and re-installing but it hasn't helped.
    Settings made under 10.5 and saved still appear in Snow Leopard, and are still able to access the cassette and the sheet feeder, but I can't find a place to CHANGE that for saved or for new settings.
    Can anyone tell me where to find this setting, or where I might find a patch that will fix the problem?

    The v10.26 driver for the iP6700D still has the Paper Source menu under Q&M on 10.6. I can only think that something is conflicting with your installation of the driver. I would trash the contents of the BJPrinter folder, located in HD > Library > Printers > Canon. Then install the v10.26 driver again and see if the menus are present.
    There were two versions of printer drivers available for 10.5, v5.8.3 and v10.xx. If you had the version 5 installed and had presets based on this driver, then they will not work correctly with the v10 driver on 10.6. You should Delete these presets and create new ones once you get the Q&M menu appearing on your install.
    Final note. You should be posting this question on the Snow Leopard forum. This forum is for Leopard printing and scanning issues.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless second paper tray under Snow Leopard

    He there, I have a strange problem with the second (extra) paper tray from the Office Jet Pro 8500. I have setup the tray and activated the option on the driver page on the computers, but no results. No paper is loaded from the tray and there is an error that no paper is loaded in the machine. The printer is connected via ethernet (and a time machine) and I am running snow leopard on all the machines that are connected to the printer. I have installed the latest drivers from Apple and from HP. I know that the paper tray is working, because when I make a copy on the machine localy and force him to use papertray number 2, then there is no problem.
    Does anybody have the same problem?? Thanks

  • TS2510 problem with soundtrack pro v2.0.2 under snow leopard

    Hi, I've just upgraded my mac book to snow leopard and now when I try to record something with soundtrack pro v2.0.2 through the line input jack, the internal microphone is still switched on and none of the preferences allow me to switch to the input jack,ks
    Does anyone know whether STP v2.0.2 will run ok under snow leopard? If I need to upgrade the drivers, does anyone know where I can find these and how to instal them.
    Many thanks.

    There are no "drivers".
    Use Audio MIDI Setup to set your audio input.
    Good luck.

  • Problem with Backup 3 (3.1.2) under Snow Leopard

    Okay so I use Apple's Backup 3.1.2 which is free to all .Mac members as you know to back up all of my Macs to a NAS (networked drive). Anyway, under Snow Leopard this stops working. When you try to tell it to save the back ups on a mapped or mounted network drive it will not let you choose it and defaults back to the Macintosh HD. Under Leopard it had no problem doing this. What is interesting is that if I reinstall Backup 3 it will start to work and allow me to save to the network drive but as soon as Backup tries to do its backup by it self AND if the network drive is not mounted for some reason (has to be mounted manually), BackUp breaks the save point with the NAS and you can not tell it to save to the NAS again. As you also probably know everytime you restart your mac all the mounted network drives are not connected until you manually open them your selves. Under Leopard Backup would actually say "Waiting for Christian_BackUp" until I would open it and then it would start the backup automatically. Please help me get this working...I can not use Time Machine because I need a smooth, reliable, and working way to back up to a NAS.
    Thanks for your help in advance!
    PS: I have confirmed this problem on three macs all running Snow Leopard with different NAS setups.

    Whenever I put my Mac to sleep Backup 3.1.2 stops running scheduled backups to my iDisk automatically. This behavior started only after I installed Snow Leopard. They always ran just fine under Leopard whether I had put my iMac into sleep mode or not. If I reboot now and never put my computer into a "hard" sleep the automatic backups work fine, but as soon as I manually select "Sleep" mode the automatic backups stop happening even if the computer is awake when the backups are scheduled to occur.

  • Problems with AppleWorks drawing docs under Snow Leopard

    Since I installed Snow Leopard, I've encountered two major problems:
    (Problem 1) AppleWorks gets corrupted when dragging a picture file (.jpg or .png) from the desktop into a drawing document. Various dialogs (e.g. "Format : Document..." or "Format : Ruler : Settings ..." or "Options : Object Size ...") become uneditable. These dialogs will display blank boxes instead of the given object settings, and nothing can be entered into these boxes. AppleWorks must be shut down and restarted in order to continue work.
    (Problem 2) When a formula (i.e. an equation) has been created in a MathType window, selected and copied, it takes ages to make AppleWorks the active application (spinning rainbow coloured ball appears and keeps spinning for a long while). Thereafter, it takes another century to get the formula appearing in the AppleWorks document when selecting the command "Edit : Paste".
    Everything worked still fine under Leopard; under Snow Leopard it's a desaster.
    p.s.
    I've produced thousands of work sheets for my Maths teachings using the Drawing module of AppleWorks in combination with MathType (Design Science). Now I'm stuck since there is no decent successor of AppleWorks available:
    * iWork doesn't feature a drawing module.
    * EazyDraw doesn't collaborate with MathType (i.e. no OLE; inserted formulae cannot be edited by double-clicking).
    * OpenOffice doesn't collaborate with MathType.
    * Micro$oft Office doesn't feature a drawing module.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    I don't use AppleWorks as much as I used to & I've never had a need to use MathType, but I just tried dragging 3 images - a .png, a .tiff & a .jpg - to a new AppleWorks draw document. I had no problems resizing them using Format > Scale by percent & I had no problems using any of the other dialog boxes you mention.
    Some basic troubleshooting you might try:
    Whenever you do an update, it's a good idea to do two maintenance tasks, one for the system (Repair Permissions) and one for AppleWorks (delete preferences). (Thanks to Barry for this way to format this very common answer.)
    To Repair permissions in 10.4.x, launch Disk Utility, found in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder, click on First Aid, then on Repair Permissions.
    To delete AppleWorks’ preference files, go to HD > Users > Library > Preferences. Find and delete the file com.apple.appleworks.plist. Find and open the folder AppleWorks in this Preferences folder, then delete all of the enclosed files (with the exception of the Button Bar Preferences if you have customized the Button Bars). AppleWorks will recreate the preference files as it needs them. You should do this step anytime AppleWorks crashes or you force quit it.
    The slowness is likely the "Recent Items bug" & it has been around since AppleWorks 6 was released in March, 2000. It can make it appear that AppleWorks has frozen or failed to launch. The user tip by Dale Gillard, AppleWorks slow? Spinning ball appears?, explains a lot.
    Could you send me a copy of one of these worksheets? Perhaps I can see if I can easily duplicate one in Pages/Numbers/Keynote. Even though iWork doesn't have a draw app, all of the apps do have basic drawing capabilities.

  • Problems in creating PDFs from Indesign under Snow Leopard

    The Acrobat PDF Printer does not work under Snow Leopard anymore.
    Adobe gives this alternative:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
    After an update to Acrobat 9.1.3 PDFs should now be generated through a new "Save as Adobe PDF" option under the "PDF" button in the system print dialog.
    This does not at all work in Adobe Indesign with it's proprietary print dialog. The PDF-Button is only available in the system print dialog (I know it is accessible from within the Indesign print dialog panel, yet clicking on the PDF button and selecting "Save as Adobe PDF" is ignored).
    To make things worse: If you follow the advice to delete the Acrobat Printer from the "Print & Fax" panel this deletes the ADPDF9.PPD from the Library/PPD folder! You even cannot produce .ps files and distill them manually. Fortunately I was able to restore the ADPDF9.PPD from a backup.
    This is really annoying: How can Adobe state everything works fine under Snow Leopard if you are not able to create PDFs any more? Or did I miss something?

    Hi.
    make this.
    1. Go to the Apple> System Preferences...
    2.  Open the "Print & Fax" preference panel.
    3. Select the Printing tab, to get to the printers list.
    4.  Select the printer "Adobe PDF 9.0".
    5. Click the options and supplies button.
    6. Choose the Drive.
    Now I have reinstalled Leopard. but first like a Drive I have listed only a "Generic Printer".
    I tried to reassign it ADPDF9.PPD but is not recognized and automatically resets to a generic printer.
    So after some  tests that I have found here

  • Dell U2713H Startup under Snow Leopard

    Under Snow Leopard, 10.6.8, my new Dell U2713H doesn't come on when I Start Up my Mac Pro. I have to turn it off from energy saving mode, and back on. I also miss the spinning starting up window completely. Wonder what I would do if I needed to see a verbose startup.
    It displays a message saying I need to correct the 2560x1440 @ 60Hz selection. I believe it selects the proper high resolution and frequency ... but to have to turn the monitor off / on isn't right.
    I'm using the Dual DVI-D connector supplied by Dell with my Mac Pro ATI Radeon HD 2600, which has 2 dual DVI ports.
    It works under 10.9.1 Mavericks ... and I also get full 2560 x 1440 @ 60Hz.
    I tried the EDID Force RGB override many people correct color while using mini Display port connectors ... but no change.  (Reference: http://embdev.net/topic/284710#3027030)
    Can I use something from OS X 10.9 in my 10.6.8 installation that would correct this issue?
    Thanks

    I've tried resetting PRAM and rebuilding after a Safe Boot, to no avail.

  • Acrobat CS4 under Snow Leopard

    hello one and all, just received new CS4 web premium and installed on a new mac pro with snow leopard 10.6.1.  printing to the acrobat 9 printer doesn't work.  it gets up to asking for the location and filename of the pdf file, the host software sends the print pages to the driver, but the pdf file never shows up on the harddrive.  additionally, acrobat will die unexpectantly by simply opening a pdf file.  i am hoping/betting that this is because i installed CS4 under snow leopard and i am anxiously awaiting updates to bring stability to the CS4 products.  thank you.  lucas

    Here's one way to accomplish having a PDF printer in Snow Leopard:
    Requirements: 2 computers—one running Snow Leopard and one running an OS in which the PDF printer appears in the print menu, say Tiger 10.4.11, for example.
    1. On the Tiger computer:
    a. In Preferences, turn on Print Sharing.
    b. In Preferences, make the Adobe PDF Printer share-able.
    2. On the Snow Leopard computer:
    a. In Preferences: add the Adobe PDF printer, which will appear as a Bonjour printer after you clik +
    Note that files may not appear where you expect them: printing to pdf results in files being generated on the Tiger computer's desktop (for me).
    This was arrived at working with an Apple Support Tech named Eric: thanks, Eric!
    Adobe: Printing to pdf is by no means replaced by the drop-down, especially for batch processing of many items.
    A way to create a properly scaled pdf and eps file from any application is key for many people.

  • ITunes will not sync audio to iPad under Snow Leopard

    When I try to sync audio (music and podcasts) from my MacBook Pro to my new iPad, nothing gets transferred.  They are listed under the iPad heading at the left of iTunes, but have a gray chasing-arrows icon to the left of the names.  (I tried to include an image, but it doesn't work.)
    My contacts and calendar do get copied to the iPad.
    If I boot from a different partition running Lion, with the same home folder, iTunes does sync audio files.  But I'd like to get it running under Snow Leopard.

  • Front Row Incorrectly Reads iTunes Metadata under Snow Leopard?

    There is a serious problem with Front Row under Snow Leopard. The program is unable to correctly read the TV metadata from iTunes and does not correctly filter/organize the data. TV episode/season/title data is not read resulting in a completely disorganized library. All files are viewd as "movies" whether they have been tagged as TV shows or not. I had a sizable libray of videos that was perfectly organized under Tiger. Under Snow Leopard my entire database has been blown up- most TV shows appear as "Untitled". I'm sure they are MacMini users who have integrated their computers into their media playback systema s I have and am hoping Apple will provide a fix for this issue which totally undercuts one of the main reasons for integrating the Mini into one's home theatre system. Does any have a fix or simple work around. Come on Apple-- don't turn into Microsoft on me!

    I recently purchased a used iMac (from 2006), that the previous owner had upgraded to Snow Leopard. I already have a MacBook Pro. To explain, I purchased the iMac to set it up as a media center computer, connected to my external hard drive and synced with AppleTV. I used Migration Assistant to move my files onto the iMac, but Front Row is now showing all the errors you described.
    1. It is VERY slow to open. Clicking Menu on the remote, and you wait 15 seconds or more for Front Row to open.
    2. Even though iTunes is directed to my external hard drive, Front Row shows Source as my Macbook Pro.
    3. TV shows are out of order. On my Macbook Pro (10.5.8) all shows are listed from first to last, from top to bottom. On the iMac (10.6.4) they are listed last to first, top to bottom.
    4. Some TV shows that are clearly in iTunes (purchased from iTunes) do not appear in Front Row at all.
    5. The unwatched content blue dot remains even after watching something all the way through to the end. After watching them in Front Row, iTunes does not show them as watched either, but instead has the half blue dot, as if they were unfinished.
    6. iTunes is also badly affected: I now have a large number of TV shows in the Movies section, and attempts to reorganize them in the folders on the external where they are store fails. It's a complete mess, and it seems like its deliberate that we cannot reorganize it ourselves.
    So what used to be a very lovely program has become a horribly messy, PC like, application. Which made the whole point of setting up a special computer just for media a total waste of time and money with Snow Leopard installed.
    If a fix is not forthcoming, I'm probably going to uninstall Snow Leopard, and reinstall Leopard. Everything worked fine there for me.
