Image Capture 6.1 in OS X Lion

Ever since upgrading to Lion I'm not able to have a selection window on trying to scan items on my scanner. It now only creates 1 window which is the size of the entire bed. I'm not able to scan smaller documents such as photos. I mean I can scan them but it's the entire size of the bed instead os just making the window smaller for just the photo.

Click the "hide details" button and there will be an option of Scan Size:  Detect Separate Items.
You can place one or more photos on the scanner and each will be a different file of just the photo size.

  • Image capture not working after upgrading to lion. New MacBook pro 13".

    Anybody else? Any suggestions?

    I was brave and did what you said. (Thanks for being patient - I am an old lady).
    I erased the external drive (called Time Machine Backups) in the diskutility.app.
    Now - when I restarted Time Machine I am still told that there are no disks available to be backed up, and that this can happen if all disks are in the “Do not back up” list.
    So maybe I really did mess up the list of items to be excluded from backups?
    How do I restore the list now to what it should be? 

  • Image capture not working in lion

    Well! After 10 years or so of OS X my Kodak DC 5000 no longer works in image capture after upgrading to OS X Lion. After connecting the camera and trying to import images, Image Capture says "no device connected".
    Went to the loca shop and using the same camera and cable, successfully imported picts to the desktop under Snow lepard, so I know it's not the camera or cable. Been a mac user for decades! never had a problem with "plug and play" until this update!
    Do I need to get a card reader now? New camera? Not happening as long as this one works(ed). Already lost Photoshop, but didn't mind as I bought Pixelmator. However, the Image Capture not working is a showstopper. Is this Apple's version of Vista? Help please!

    Yes, I have iPhoto 9.1.5, I also used the prefs and this still is not working. The upgrade to OS X Lion broke my driver and I am not able to do transfer any pics from the camera.
    I assume I will now need to buy a card reader.

  • After upgrading to Lion Image Capture does not work, even though it is intel software.  Gives error 9931.  What gives?

    Ouch, if it is indeed damaged, then sadly you need to restore the whole danged huge OS!
    Didn't used to be this way before Lion/10.7.
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

  • How can I replace a damaged Image Capture in locked Lion Application folder?

    I am running a MacBook Air on 10.7.2. Image Capture is "damaged or incomplete" and cannot be opened. I have a copy of IC from my other mac running Lion, but cannot copy it into the Apps folder on my MacBook Air because IC cannot be modified or deleted since it is "needed by Mac OS X." Is there an easy way to unlock the Apps folder? Thanks.

    I finally figured out a way to do this. I right-clicked to show the package contents for the corrupted application. Then copied in the contents from a functioning version. Gave administrator permission to make the change. Relaunched the finder and the damaged application was back up and running and no longer greyed out.

  • OS X LION Issues with Full-Screen; iPhoto, Image Capture & Mail

    Hello,
    I'm experiencing un-Apple-like issues (bugs) with Lion in Full-Screen mode.
    For example - iPhoto doesn't seem to like Full-Screen mode. If iPhoto is open and I connect a camera, for which I prefer Image Capture to retrieve my pics... Image Capture opens 'behind' the full-screen iPhoto, but I can't get to it. Image Capture shows as open on the menu bar in iPhoto's full-screen mode. If I go to the desktop (where it should be opening) Image Capture isn't 'on top' and clicking it takes me back to iPhoto full-screen
    Similarly, if I get mail and return to the desktop (the only way to see the dock) and I click on the 'Mail' app icon - I am catapulted into Image Capture... or iPhoto. Returning to the Desktop to click the Mail icon from the dock... takes me to Image Capture... or iPhoto. The 3rd try takes me to the Mail.app which is usually always open and in full-screen mode.
    While I'm complaining about bugs, I'd like to mention that I am fully dismayed by the loss of control in full-screen mode when using apps such as Mail or iPhoto. The Mail app opens an email to edit (such as a reply) but you can't access any other mail docs to 'cut and paste' info from. I can only click SEND or CANCEL.
    What if I don't want to CANCEL? I just want to go to another email and cut a piece to paste.. I have to exit full-screen mode which allows me to open two email documents at once, then cut and paste. Essentially Mail in Full-Screen is only a reader... not a work area. I can only access the document I have open, since it greys out the Message Viewer. You can't click on the message viewer nor access any of the features of Mail.app. You can only write your email and either Cancel or Send. Where is the 'hold on a second while I go cut and paste'? I don't want to cancel.
    Can't seem to use Safari since I'm constantly three-finger swiping it away. My cursor hovers over a text field and suddenly it's zooming in and locks text input. I have to iPhone-like swipe to expand to exit this inadvertent partial (very slight) zoom. Sometimes the zoom is so partial that I can't figure out what's going on until I just exit full-screen mode, close the window and start over.
    Seems like I'm starting over and over and over... just to do simple things. Inadvertent zooming, inadvertent 3-finger returning to Desktop, inadvertent changing apps... ugh.
    I'm willing to let go of the old and embrace the new future but so far it's been pretty uncomfortable for me to constantly monitor my overly sensitive trackpad gesturing combined with constant bugs and glitches. I'll save complaining about iPhoto's over-simplification (apparently for dummies) like the new Edit menu, Export menu, etc.. since it's more iLife than Lion related. Rate Lion: 2 out of 5 stars for ease of use & features complicated by unrefined software issues.

    I've tried follwoing these instructions but I have an issue with
    # Create snort user. The intention is to let user snort have access only to the snort database.
    $ sudo createuser -U _postgres -P snort
    Password:
    Enter password for new role:
    Enter it again:
    Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) n
    Shall the new role be allowed to create databases? (y/n) n
    Shall the new role be allowed to create more new roles? (y/n) n
    It keeps telling me "could not connect to database postgres: could not connect to server: No such file or directory"
    I'm running OSX Mountain Lion, and have verified using serveradmin status postgres that it is up and running.

  • Since upgrade to Mountain Lion my scanner and Image Capture program will not work ( have a Canon MP980 printer/scanner). How do I correct?

    I recently installed Mountain Lionn on my iMac. After installing the Image Capture program no longer allowed me to  scan - I immediately received an error message. Even when I tried to scan directly from the printer/scanner (Canon MP980) I received the same message. Scanner worked fine with 'Lion' How do I correct this problem now?

  • Epson scan under Lion with image capture

    The first scan I made with image capture at 150dpi appeared usable.
    However the letter scanned was no longer white but slightly green and pink and the file size was at 3,8Meg!
    A pdf at 150dpi for an A4          :          3,8M
    A jpg at 150dpi for an A4          :          549Kb
    A pdf at 96dpi for an A4           :          1,5M
    A jpg at 96dpi for an A4           :          209Kb
    With the Epson Scanner Software I had good rendering and an A4 page was around 100 and 200Kb in jpg or pdf.
    What’s going on! The new software caused a 1800% increase in the file size!
    I am stuck with my scanner and papers.
    The image correction is limited.
    The pdf files created are enormous.
    There is no way we want to work and start to store this files!
    A quick solution is needed to correct the situation.

    A bit of history taken from Wikipedia:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_%28software%29
    Rosetta is a dynamic binary translator for Mac OS X which allows many PowerPC applications to run on certain Intel-based Macintosh computers without modification. Apple released Rosetta in 2006 when it transitioned the Macintosh platform from the PowerPC to Intel processor microarchitecture. The name "Rosetta" is a reference to the Rosetta Stone, the discovery of which made it possible to comprehend and translate Egyptian hieroglyphs.
    Rosetta is based on QuickTransit technology.[1] It has no graphical user interface, which led Apple to describe Rosetta as "the most amazing software you'll never see."[2]
    Rosetta was initially included with Mac OS X v10.4.4 "Tiger", the version that was released with the first Intel-based Macintosh models.[3]
    Mac OS X v10.6 "Snow Leopard" does not include Rosetta by default but retains an option in the installer for the user to include it. It can also be automatically installed by the system if needed at a later time.
    Mac OS X v10.7 "Lion" neither includes nor supports Rosetta at all. Therefore, with Lion, the current Macintosh platform drops support for PowerPC applications.
    " WIKIPEDIA.
    The discs  wich came with a scan are mainlly PowerPC.
    Epson no more do Scan software, driver yes to be used by Image Capture or other.
    They are all the same, want to sell hardware not software.
    For me, To stay at a reasonable file size limit, I do clear choice between what will be B&W and color.
    In Image Capture : the Black and White can be treated directly in PDF, using:
    - Image correction :
         - Contrast to full
         - Brightness one step
    With color I have quite no choice, JPEG:
    - Image correction
         - Brightness +3
    After in a viewer I do a color autolevel.
    If I want it in PDF, save in PDF and finally apply a "in house" Filter from ColorSync Utility.
    I don't use the built in "reduce file size", it's too extrem and the results are very poor.
    Regards
    B.

  • Image Capture app not working since migrating to Lion.

    Image Capture app isn't working so well since migrating to 10.7 Lion. Now when I try to scan, Image Capture hangs with a "Crop and Rotate" message. It doesn't import into iPhoto. Anyone else run into this type of problem?

    Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • Image Capture can't see Epson v700 scanner in Lion:

    Never Mind. Fixed It.  I re-installed the scanner software (dated July 2009) and everything is fine now.  I don't know how Drivers from before Lion, and the same version # as I was already using, could fix this... but it did.  Maybe someone in the same boat will find it useful.  The drivers are here :   http://www.epson.co.uk/Store/Scanners/Epson-Perfection-V700-Photo/Drivers-Suppor t?supportLandingPage=true
    Hello
    I've recently upgraded my OS X 10.6.8 to Lion... currently at 10.7.4.  I have an Epson v700 scanner, connected via USB, that works with the Epson Scan application and with VueScan.  But Image Capture can't see it.  I installed the ICA driver update from Epson.  I've done the OS X Software Update.  No help so far.
    I can't install the Epson v700 in the Print & Scan preferences pane as well because it just seem to "see" any scanners. I had earlier deleted the scanner because an Epson KB article had said to delete the scanner, then do the OS X Software Update, then to re-add the scanner.  But the scanner is not being seen by OS X directly so I can't add it back... though Epson Scan and VueScan seem to be able to scan.  Very odd.
    Any other suggestions?
    Yes, I've restarted the system... though I may try it again.
    Thanks...

    Canon Australia is hosting a scanner driver for 10.8 and MP Navigator v3.0.5 for your MP180. Install the scanner driver first and then MP Navigator.
    Note that Canon is not hosting an ICA driver for this model, which is used by Image Capture and Preview. So this would explain the lack of the scanner entry in the KB article that Clinton has mentioned (the vendors make the drivers - Apple just hosts them).

  • Issue with Image Capture with Lion

    I have a Lion.   My camera is a Nikon D700
    I have Lightroom 3 and Lightroom 4
    Recently downloaded Lightroom 4.1 connected my memory card reader to upload photos .  Lightroom 3 opens and not Lightroom 4  to import the photos.
    Checked Image capture application  to change preferences - there is no preferences in image capture (Lion)  My scanner is the only device that is shown.
    Please advise how I change for image capture to  open the correct Lightroom version.
    thank you

    Hi Frank
    I have a Lexar card reader - being using it for years no problem -
    I have again gone into image capture have notice the camera import process.  I never had previously hat to worry about Image capture as my photo import ran smoothly with Lightroom 3 opening up automatically.
    In Image capture there are options to where the photos need to be imported to.  Only iPhoto option provided no Lightroom - Under "other" I typed in Lightroom 4. 
    However, the import process began without Lightroom 4 opening and the photos started to be imported in to the pictures folder ( this I do not want to happen) as I want Lightroom 4 to open .
    However, there is no option to change  from pictures folder - there is no option for Lightroom 4 , were it says "other: can I change to Lightroom 4?
    As Lightroom option is not given , I chose "other" and inserted Lightroom 4 .  When attaching  my card reader , Lightroom 4 did not open to import only the pictures folder.  Please confirm that I need to change to import to Lightroom 4 instead of the pictures folder.  _
    If this is so must I change the option from other to Lightroom 4 , even though I have already indicated " connecting this camera to.......  see attachment.  
      Also I see there is an option to tick " delete after import"  must this be checked?
    See attachment
    I have not attached the screen shot as in the reply window there is no option to do this

  • Lion image capture not finding canon 8800f

    Hi
    I am running Lion on my IMac.  I connected a Cannon 8800F scanner.  Image capture does not show the device.   Went to the Cannon site and installed what they said was for 10.7  No luck.
    This is a really good scanner and nothing wrong with it.  Any ideas how to get it working?  It worked under Snow Lep/
    Thank you
    Larry

    Found the solution.  For Lion, you need to install the Canon driver for Snow Lep 10.6 then reboot.  Once that is complete, the scanner will show up as a valid device.

  • Image Capture in Lion fails to invert orientation of image from scanner

    I have been using Image Capture for scanning documents for awhile, and I often feed the documents in from the bottom.  Feeding this way requires that I select an option that inverts the final image.  Since upgrading to Lion, the inversion option fails.  I have a duplex scanner, and the image inversion option only fails on the odd pages, not the even (duplex) pages scanned.  When I do not have the duplex option selected, the inversion fails on all pages. 
    This seems like a quick bug fix for Apple.

    I have a solution. Its a workaround but it works pretty well. I made an Automator script that will combine PDFs in that are a folder. It will sort the individual PDF pages by creation date in descending order so that the result is in the order that was scanned.
    Scan the documents through your scanner's feeder and select "Duplex" if you have it. But do not select "Combine into single document." Put all the scanned PDFs in a new folder. Once all the scanning is done, run the app and it will ask you for the folder. Simply select the folder and a newly combined PDF will appear on your Desktop.
    Download the automator script from my dropbox link. The zip file contains both the app and the automator file in case you want to tinker with it. Cheers.

  • In Mountain Lion Image Capture only recognizes Canon SLR camera under root user

    Being a school of fine arts we are using Canon 5D MKII cameras for use in Dragon Frame stopmotion.
    In OS X 10.8.4 the camera shows up in System Information > USB but is not recognized in Image Capture (and Dragon Frame) when the user is logged in as a network- or standard user.
    Using an local admin account the camera is sometimes recognized ('fuzzy logic') and is always recognized when logging in as a root user.
    In Snow Leopard this problem does not exist but a rollback to Snow is not an option because Adobe CS 6 Premiere does not function well under 10.6.8.
    The root user 'solution' suggests that it is permission related.
    We found this problem on all our iMacs and we tried PRAM zapping and different cameras and cables.
    Does anyone know a solution to this problem?
