Image Capture will not recognize my camera or iPhone4?

After recent updates the image capture now reads "no camera or scanner selected" when my iPhone 4 and/or digital camera are connected. Why? Help? Anyone else with this problem...please have a solution!

Rebecca have you had the chance to restart or do a SMC reset? If not then please do see if that helps.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.

Image Capture will not recognize my Epson Workforce 615

Image Capture will not recognize my Epson Workforce 615. It would not recognize my HP 4280 either.
I can print but I cannot scan using Image Capture. Scanning through Epson scan or HPScan Pro works.
What am I doing wrong? I have searched all over the net for an answer and there does not seem to be a solution. Only other people searching for the same answer.
And no I do not want to use VueScan.
Thanks!

Thank you for your quick reply. I ran all of the updates and the software is current.

I am having the identical error. I have an iPhone 4 and 2 macs, the phone is managed from an old G5 PowerMac and images are saved from it to Aperture for photos and videos go to iPhoto 11. The Mac is running 10.5.8. I last appear to have downloaded movies from iPhone4 to mac in December , the oldest video being 10 Dec 2010.
This week I was going to back up a handful of images on the phone but after connecting it to the mac, something that happens several times a week to sync to itunes for app updates etc I found it did not list for import options in iPhoto nor in Aperture. I looked at Image Capture and that tells me no device is connected.
I have no problems taking images off the phone using a MBP which has 10.6 and Image Capture recognises the phone.
I have tried the following after reading through all the discussions on the topic of which there appear to be many with this problem.
Restore the iphone then update settings from archive. - did nothing
Closed apps reconnected iPhone started apps... - did nothing
Switched phone off then on then connected to mac then opened apps - nothing
This Mac seems happy to communicate t othe phone though iTunes but appears to have lost the way when it comes to getting images off the iPhone. Any help keenly appreciated.

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.

Labview will not recognize Sony camera connected via ethernet.

I have a Sony camera, model XCG-SX97E, and have been trying to interface it using Labview. I was told that the easiest way to do so is using the NI Vision packadge. However it became quickly appearent that Labview will not recognize the camera at all. It is connected via ethernet directly to my computer. I have tried using NI MAX and Instument I/O assitant, neither of which displayed ethernet or the device as an option. I have never tried to interface a third party device before and am at a loss at how to proceed. If it helps to know, my computer has only one ethernet port, which is taken up by the camera when connected, and it has an Intel 82479LM Gigabit ethernet network connection.

After talking to tech support, I have dont the following:
1) Uninstalled Sony drivers
- This allowed the camera to show up in MAX
2) Created a homemade cross over cable because I do not own one
3) Disabled my firewall
Now, when I try to acquire an image in MAX, I get the error 0xBFF69031: "The system did not recieve test packet from the camera."
I have tried all the suggestions listed on http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/4D0ECFAA9AD9FF3E8625792600551A1E and have had no luck.
I am now going to try the solutions found in this thread: http://forums.ni.com/t5/Machine-Vision/0xBFF69001-0xBFFF800B-errors-with-GigE-JAI-CV-A10GE/td-p/1742...

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!

Aperture will not recognize my camera

I am having two issues with Aperture that just started happening.
First... I use to store all my photos on my external HDD. Now, I've disconnected that HDD and am storing my master aperture library on my internal HDD. I've changed my library preferences. That's the only change I've made recently.
#1 problem. Aperture is taking forever to start running. When I click on the icon it easily takes a few minutes for Aperture to load.
#2. When I select File>import it easily takes 2-3 minutes for aperture to bring up the import window and when the import window does load it will not recognize my Nikon D70 slr at all. However, after being connect for, maybe, 10 minutes all the sudden aperture will recognize my camera.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I have been using a Nikon 5700 camera for the last five or six years. Aperture couldn't recognixe the RAW files. I have been fiddling around trying to figure out what to do, bought software to convert files, copying, altering preference files, etc. What a pain. I just installed Lightroom and saw my entire photo library for the first time since I got my MAC

IPhoto 11 will not recognize my camera or card reader

My new iMac with iPhoto 11, on Lion, will not recognise my camera, a SanDisk card reader or, for that matter, my iPhone 4.
It means that I cannot put new photo's into iPhoto.
From other forums and threads there seems to be an Apple issue but no fix.
Any ideas?
Thank you

The point of using a Different Account on your Mac is that it will tell us if the applications are sound or not. If the problem occurs in another User account we'll know the issue is systemic. If it doesn't then we know the apps are sound and the issue is something in your account.
Basic troubleshooting: try the same things using different cables. If the cable is faulty then that's how we'll know. That fact that other features work using this cable means nothing. A connector cable has several strands. One could be damaged.
Ditto for using different USB ports on the machine.

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!

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.

Image Capture and iPhoto recognize my camera as a device but won't display photos

Everything worked fine under Mavericks. Might have to revert to that again if this problem isn't fixed. I'm downloading the Mavericks installer as I write this.

As has been noted in other posts about this problem, reformatting the card is not a solution. I format the card after I download pics in Mavericks on a regular basis. The problem lies with Yosemite's remake of Image Capture (and iPhoto), not with my old Canon camera.

Help! Computer will not recognize my camera at all!

Hello, everyone. This is my first post, and I am at a loss as to what to do.
I've had my camera for over a year, and I have never had any problems before uploading pictures from my camera to my PowerBook. However, all of the sudden, last night, my computer decided it didn't want to recognize that I had my camera connected! Both iPhoto 4.0.3 and Image Capture are unaware I have my camera connected. The camera I'm using is a Kodak EasyShare Z730.
Any suggestions as to what I should do? I've tried plugging it in a different USB port, and I've tried restarting the computer.
Any ideas would be wonderful!
Thanks in advance!
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Can you temporarily connect some other USB device to verify that your PowerBook's USB ports are in working order? Do you have another computer to which your camera can be connected to verify that a working USB connection is being made from the camera?
If we can somehow eliminate a hardware issue, then you can focus on software. Have you tried creating a new admin user account? If the new account recognizes your camera, it would narrow the problem down to something within your regular user account.

Image capture will not recognise my iPhone?

Image Capture on my iMac with Snow Leopard, does not recognise my iPhone when I attach it. I have tried the same phone with a MacBook Pro without a problem. The Image Capture software is the same version on both computers. Can anyone help?

OSX will not recognize my camera

I have a Nikon D70 SLR. It is using a compact flash card to store the images.
I connect it to my computer using a USB cable and Aperture to download the images.
When I connect the camera to my computer I do not get a little Hard Drive icon to appear on my desktop. With other people's camera when I connect the camera I get and icon. Why doesn't it happen with my camera?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

OK.
Thanks guys. While trying to answer your questions I found the answer.
There was a setting on my camera for the USB connection.
It was either PTP
or Mass Storage
I set it to Mass Storage instead of PTP. Do you guys know the difference?
Thanks again.
