Image Capture does not save a scanned file

Image Capture using an HP Photosmart C3180 to scan a document does so but does not save the file to the Desktop.
A pop-up windows displays Scan Results but still not file
O/S Lion, Image Capture Version 6.1 (440).
Used to work, what is the deal?

As for the scanner - so is this new one wireless? When I hooked up my Epson All-in-One, I had to install it via USB first before I could install the wireless (per their instructions). With Snow Leopard, I simply installed the driver and it covered and recognized both the print and scan function - not so in Lion; I had to go through hoops with the scanner part and it finally showed up as a separate unit. I thought that is silly, but - as long as it works..... I'm trying to think of possibilities since I'm about out of ideas, so you might want to consider that (if it applies). The other troubleshooting suggestions usually include redoing the "add" function after a reboot.
As for Image Capture, I am out of ideas. FWIW, I never use it - in my workflow, there is no need for it. Not sure if this would have an impact, but make sure that you choose Image Capture in the CDs&DVDs Preference Pane (mine is set to ignore or ask purposely):
If that does not work, I'd suggest reinstalling the OS over the top of what you have.

Image Capture does not recognize my Canon Pixma MP150 printer

Image Capture does not recognize my Canon Pixma MP150 printer since I upgraded to Mavericks.

To scan with Image Capture you need an ICA driver. Looking through the CanonDevices list in the /Library/Image Capture folder I cannot see an entry for the MP150. And I checked Canon Australia's web site and there is no ICA driver for the MP150. There is a scanner driver and MP Navigator for OS X 10.7. You may be able to install and use the driver and application on 10.9, although you will have to get past Gatekeeper to install both items as they are not digitally signed. To do this, you can hold down the Control key and click on the installer. A pop-up menu will appear and you can select Open. You will then be able to install the driver and then the application. If they do install then see if you can open MP Navigator and scan from the MP150.

TS1501 Image Capture does not launch when I connect my iPhone to my iMac and open iPhoto. No "Prefernces" is offered under Image Capture. I cannot import photos to iPhoto.

Can't import photos from iPhone to iPhoto. Image Capture does not launch when iPhone is connected to my iMac and iPhoto is open. There is no "Preferences" option offered to click when in Image Capture.

This helped me. It is advice I found from a user named Carlosmara. First make sure iPhoto is closed and your iPhone is not connected. Then, as Carlosmara stated in his post,
"Go to your Library/preferences and delete the file com.apple.iPhoto.plist
IPhoto should recognized the iPhone again."
The file in question is under your user folder.
I then restarted my mac and plugged in the iPhone so that it would sync. After the sync, when I opened iPhoto, my iPhone was recognized and I could download the photos perfectly.
Hopefully this will help you as it helped me

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

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.

Image capture does not recognize Canon Scanner

I have two Canon Scanners, a Canoscan 8800F and a Canoscan LiDE 60. Image Capture does not recognize either of these. Both worked with Mountain Lion.

This user found some success acutally using *older* drivers. While that sounds odd, it might be worth a try: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23759017#23759017
I used to have a LIDE 60 - it is a great little machine. Good luck!

Plug in my iPhone to Mac; image capture does not appear

Software OS X 10.8.5 (12F45) on MacBook Pro
iPhone: Version 7.1 (Is it an iPhone 5: LOL… I don't know! It's the newer taller, round one!)
When I plug in my iPhone to my MacBook… my pictures do not load like usual.
(Same thing when I put in a photo card)
Sometimes the device will appear; but import is not an option to select.
EVEN if I change the parameters down on the bottom left to Image Capture, iPhoto, etc.
Usually, my phone will appear on the left hand side and I am able to click Import.
However; this time NOTHING happens.
Can someone please help?
All the directions I have read through (dozens!) for the last 5 hours do not give the step on what to do IF the Image Capture does not work.
Same thing in iPhoto. Nothing. Nada.
I have plugged and replugged.
Tried different cords.
OH, help! Please!

Hi solutionfocused,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like there is an issue importing photos with multiple devices and applications on your Mac. The article linked below provides a lot of great tips that may resolve the issue, like taking a screenshot to ensure there is a new photo to be imported since the previous import.

Image Capture does not have a 'Devices' option

I have a new scanner and I installed the drivers. It's showing fine in Photoshop CS3 but the window for it is awkward and small and barely has any features to it (there is no selection to for Advanced either). I figured I should try to use Image Capture instead, hoping to have better luck and more features. However Image Capture is not allowing me to go to 'Devices > Browse Devices' because there is no 'Devices' menu listed at all. I've restarted, unplugged things, plugged devices back in. It just says 'No Camera or Scanner Selected' ... the Command B is not even working either.
Has anyone ever had this happen, should I try reinstalling Image Capture?

As for the scanner - so is this new one wireless? When I hooked up my Epson All-in-One, I had to install it via USB first before I could install the wireless (per their instructions).

Why BRBACKUP cmd does not save SAP control files?

Hello!
    We experience some issues running BRBACKUP utility to save SAP's data objects.
When we run the BRBACKUP cmd, we see that all tablespaces and configurations files
are save, but BRBACKUP cmd does not save control files. Why, we don't know?
BRBACKUP run throught AIX crontab and it looks like this ...
brbackup -u system/disapinst01 -c -m full -t online
the init<SID>.ora file looks good, we can see that the *.control_files entry is OK.
*.control_files='/oracle/<SID>/origlogA/cntrl/cntrlDDI.dbf',
                '/oracle/<SID>/origlogB/cntrl/cntrlDDI.dbf',
                '/oracle/<SID>/sapdata1/cntrl/cntrlDDI.dbf'

Somebody help us, please!

brbackup copies one controlfile to /oracle/PRD/sapbackup and then backs up this copy.
look for a similar message in your log:

Image Capture does not recognize RAW files from Panasonic Lumix G1

I'm in the process of buying a Lumix G1 camera, but while uploading images from the camera in the store via Image Capture, said app did not recognize its RAW files, only the JPEGs. It works fine with other new cameras such as Nikon D5000, etc. Any ideas?
BTW, my Powerbook is still running Tiger, and I want it that way!

Since I upgraded to Yosemite, Image Capture does not combine pages in to one PDF document

Ever since I upgraded my OS to Yosemite, in my Intel iMac, I have not been able to combine the scanned multiple pages of a document into one PDF file using Image Capture, even though the option to combine pages is checked off. It makes multiple PDF files of these pages. Furthermore, I have even tried to use Preview to combine these individual pages into one document and save it into one file but it will only save one page. Is anyone else having the same problem? If so has anyone found a solution to this problem? Please help. It was wonderful to be able to do this in Maverick. Thanks.

Preview and image capture don't save imported scanned image

Hi. Both preview and image capture aquire the scanner and displays the image overview. But when proceeding
to scan, the application simply hangs and no image is saved.
Maybe some prefs file is corrupted. Tried removing the com.apple.Preview from ~/Library/Containers, but didn't help....
What to do???

Not sure if this is relevant:
1) TWAIN-BRIDGE is installed otherwise mavericks won't talk to the scanner.
2) recently added an HP printer (no scanner). Shouldn't conflict with the scanner driver, but then again.....

InDesign does not save - generates new file

While working with a 6 person workgroup, using InDesign and InCopy across a network.
I am in InDesign CS 6 on a Mac, the rest of the team in InCopy CS 6 on PC's.
The problem I am encountering is intermittent and happens when the group is very active, crunching on a tight pub deadline.
Some times I am able to save the InDesign file properly, it saves over the latest version in the proper place without prompting.
At other times it does not allow me to save properly and forces a "Save As" scenario, which of course wreaks havoc with the links.
We are working over a network that also creates scenarios where a file in PowerPoint sometimes pops up inadvertently and intermittently as "read only"
I can only describe this as a kind of intermittent "lag" in the network.
Any thoughts?

A save as, over the current file should not cause any problems at all
and in fact is pretty good practice.
If you can't save over it, are you getting an error message?

Image Capture does not recognize scanner with latest update of Mavericks 10.9.4

Since last week (8-5-14) after updating to OS 10.9.4 (13E28) Image Capture and Printers and Scanner (in System Prefs.) do not recognize my scanner. What the hay! Yes, my scanner is elderly but like me is in perfect working condition. Until now. I've spent hours trouble shooting, i. e., downloading EPSONPrintDriver2.18.dmg and reinstalling, a waste of time. Changing usb/firewire cables, switching usb ports, deleting pref files and cussing. The Epson web site was useless it just tells me to download updates via Apple software updates. I hate the idea of being so dammed dependant on any one organization (Apple). I've been an Apple user since the Apple 2C but I do believe that will change soon.
Anyone with a solution or replacement app for Image Capture? I don't want to spend my Social Security money on VueScan which dose work for me unless I have to.

Try resetting the printing system. It can also affect the scanner.

IPhoto and Image Capture does not see the iPhone as a camera

Whether I launch iPhoto or Image Capture, in both cases the iPhone is not recognized as a camera. I am running firmware 1.1.1. I am afraid up upgrade to 1.1.3 because I do not want to lose my pictures. This was working at one point, but now it is not. I have no problems syncing music and video content within iTunes. I recently used migration assistant to move my home folder to my new Mac Pro running leopard. I am not sure if this is when it stopped working. I also tried using the Tiger machine at work, but the same thing happens there as well in both apps. Is there anything anyone can suggest?

This helped me. It is advice I found from a user named Carlosmara. First make sure iPhoto is closed and your iPhone is not connected. Then, as Carlosmara stated in his post,

Image Capture does not recognize my CanoScan LiDE 700F after downloading pix via iPhoto.

My scanner was working fine. I downloaded some photos using iPhoto. My computer now does not recognize my scanner when I use ImageCapture. I think this happened once before but I can't remember how I remedied the situation. In researching the scanner before purchase, I discovered many reviews that indicated "don't download the software; it doesn't work: just use ImageCapture. That has worked well....until now. Any suggestions?
