Import images from a scanner using WIA Support (Windows only)

I use an Epson 4490 Photo scanner together with Photoshop CS 4 on a 64 bit Vista computer. I have always been able to open scanned images in Photoshop once the scan was completed.
Recently I updated the Epson driver and when I scan in 'Professional Mode' the image no longer opens in Photoshop. Instead I get a 'File Saving Setting' pop-up which requires me to select a folder and assign a name to the file. I don't particularly like this system because I have a numbering system for my negatives that does not lend itself to the way I am forced to name the file. I would just like to continue have the scan open in Photoshop and then go from there.
Any of the 'Help' questions I have seen suggest to go to: File>Import>WIA support in Photoshop. However, when I do that and click on 'Epson 4490' I get an error message indicating that the scanner can't be found - although I have minutes before scanned an image.
I sure would appreciate any info/help anybody has concerning this.

I agree with D Fosse. Simply do your scans in the 32bit version of PS.

After importing images from my card using LR 5.4, the GPS data does not show in the metadata panel. However, when I look at the imported images using Bridge, the GPS data is visible. Anybody know why LR is not seeing the GPS data? Camera is Canon 6D.

Ok, the issue seem to be solved. The problem was this:
The many hundred files (raw and xmp per image) have been downloaded by ftp in no specific order. Means - a couple of files in the download queue - both raw and xmps. Most of the time, the small xmp files have been finished loading first and hence the "last change date" of these xmp files was OLDER than the "last change date" of the raw file - Lightroom then seem to ignore the existence of the xmp file and does not read it during import.(a minute is enough to run into the problem)
By simply using the ftp client in a way that all large raw files get downloaded first followed by the xmp files, we achieved that all "last changed dates" of the xmp files are NEWER than the related raw files. (at least not older)
And then LR is reading them and all metadata information has been set / read correctly.
So this is solved.

Why can I import images from my scanner in Adobe Elements 11 organizer but not in photo editor?

Why can I import images from my scanner in Adobe Elements 11 in the organizer but not in the photo editor? I have Windows 8 64 bit.

You need to install TWAIN to scan into the editor:

Importing images from all subfolders within a directory and only within that directory

Hi All
I volunteered to oragnise my grandmas photo collection after I started using lightrooom.
My experience of lightroom started off great but has gone down hill since then. This should be very easy to do. Contanstant propblems now being able to read LR4 catalogs and upgrade them to LR5 format
My most recent problem is I have copied the entire contents of my grandmas computer to a portable hard driv
Drive I:\ directory I:\grandma.
I now want to create a new catalog in lightroom so I can import all her photos (scattered all over the computer in various files, she had no structure) into one single folder, so everything is organised.
The problem is (I have tried lightroom 4 and 5 each with a different problem):
In lightroom 5 I open a new catalog, open the import dialog and point it to the directory I:\grandma, then I click the show all subfolders (it only recognises 150 image but there are at least a few thousand) I think it is only recognising the immediate folder even though I have the ALL photos option selected, and the copy all photos and import from subfolders options selected.) At the very least it is not recognising all the subfolders, in some cases there are about seven levels.
What is the maximum number of images you can import in one go? And how many nested subfolders can you have?
In lightroom 4 I open a new catalog and open the import dialog and point it to I:\grandma. However this time the import dialog box returns photos which I know are not in the directory I:\ grandmas. It is displaying a lot of my photos in the import dialog box (even though I have clearly selected the I:\grandma directory. when I use show in explorer I can see it is showing images from my C drive that it wants to import.
Why is it doing this when I have clearly selected I only want to import my grandmas photos into the catalog from the directory I:\grandma?
I have also followed Pete Green's directions here to 1. optimise the catalog ( I did it however not sure of the point when it is a new catalog with no images in it) and 2. remove xmp files of which there are none (see point 1.) http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1231573
Please help.

UPDATE--> Manually adding folders (drag from explorer and drop on music libray) appears to be functioning as a work around. I have been testing individual folders and so far so good.
While this may be a workaround i have HUNDREDS of folders! =(

Importing Images from Scanner

For 15 years I have used Adobe Elements as my photo-editing software. I import images from my scanner, camera, etc. My computer hard drive crashed last week. I have a new hard drive and had to reload all my programs. Now when I'm in Adobe PE 10 and say I want to import an image from my scanner or camera, it won't see them. Might be a twain issue -- but I can find NO help on the Adobe sight. My Brother MFC can print and scan (so the problem is not with them). I can pull photos from my camera "the long way." I just can't get Adobe to see my scanner or camera. HELP! Who can I call (for free) or where can I go for live chat? I'd like to get this solved NOW!

Hope that this helps. Let us know if this is correct.

How do I import images from a Canon scanner on Photo Elements 12 using a Mac

Hi
I have purchase a new Mac with the 10.9 version and I am using Photo Elements 12. I am trying to import images from my CanoScan 9000f scanner but I can't see the scanner in the Organizer, Files, Get Photos and Videos, there is no Scanner option. But I can use my scanner using the Canon Sofware for the scanner. Can you tell me what I have to do to be able to use my scanner directly on adobe Elements 12 ?
Simon

You do not use the 'Import' function under the File Menu to import P2 card content because the video content is still in its native form. For example, my Panasonic HPX 171 produces .MXF video files (amongst all the other files and folders within the overall heirarchy).
In order to access the copied P2 information you have to Log & Transfer it, as if it were a camera plugged into the computer. This process then converts the MXF P2 files into a Quicktime format that the Final Cut application can read and work with.
Take note that when archiving a P2 card as you did it is imperative that ALL the other files and folders are copied and saved. In other words, the entire 'CONTENTS' folder. It is this 'CONTENTS' folder that you navigate to within Log & Transfer when you want to import to FCP.

Import Image from scanner to database Direct ..

can any Colleagues help me ..
how can i Import Image From Scanner directly
if anyone can descuss code and how can i do that
thank for all Colleagues .......

You cannot.. unless you are prepared to get your hands dirty writing code to integrate a scanner API into Oracle.
Oracle has a feature called extproc. This allows you to define external "procedures" - these procedures are for example shared object libraries (Linux/Unix) or dynamic link libraries (Windows). A scanner API will be typically implemented by its driver as a shared object/DLL. Which means it is callable from within PL/SQL.
It may however not be usable - extproc does not support callbacks, does not own a window or process handle, and so on.
In which case you may need to wrap the DLL into a custom DLL that implements callbacks. perhaps create a hidden window if a window handle is needed, and so on.
In other words, this is not a trivial thing. You need to know more than just a bit about o/s side (systems) programming.
You should also ask yourself why you want to do this. Architecturally wiring a scanner into Oracle via PL/SQL and an extproc interface make absolutely no sense at all.
Especially since operator input/control is required to physically manage device... That is on the very opposite side of the Oracle server spectrum. That is clearly a client function to interact with such a device and not a server function.

Importing image from scanner

How can I import an image from my scanner (Epson Artisan 837) directly into Photoshop 5? When I go to import, there is ONLY the message: "Video Frames to Layers"...whatever that means. I don't know how I can now use Photoshop to open my scanner and import images like I could with an older version of Photoshop.

Before anyone can help you, they will need what OS you are using and the version of the OS as the scanner driver differs for each OS and version.

How can I import images from iphoto with the albums and folders?

How can I import images from iphoto without losing the albums and folders I already created?

In Organizer, you can choose File>get Photos and Videos>From iPhoto.
Importing from iPhoto'09: If in iPhoto, you organize your media using photo references, that is, the media actually does not reside inside iPhoto library package, and are referenced through original locations, Organizer does not create new copies of those media and just refer to the original location. but if your iPhoto media reside inside iPhoto library, Organizer creates a copy all media in your pictures folder, also imports albums and tags and other metadata.
Importing from iPhoto'011: In this case, Organizer always creates a copy of your photos in your pictures folder which resides inside iPohto package. It does not import the albums and other metadata like star rating, caption etc.
Hope this information helps!

Can I import images from DVD to my HDD through bridge (I have Win 7

Hi,
I'm using Win 7 (and also have Bridge on Mac OS X). I'd like to import images from DVD to my HDD through Adobe Bridge. But I can't find the option to import from DVD in Bridge (either in Win 7 or Mac). My DVD drive on my Win machine is external while I have the regular internal DVD drive on my Macbook Pro. I'm trying to import images from DVD to HDD through Bridge. Go through the first round of select/reject through Bridge and then take them to LR for further edits.
I currently copy them from DVD drive to a USB pen drive. And then using the Bridge import dialog (when I plug in the USB again) copy them to my HDD. I do this becuase I also need to batch rename my files, add metadata and keywords during import. The simple copy/move function won't allow these additions and so I have to resort to this workaround of DVD to USB to HDD (thru Bridge). If I can import directly from DVD through bridge, it'll save me quite some time.
Look forward to assistance pls.
Thx,
Chinmoy

I feel a bit silly now. For 2 days I struggled and then posted my Q.
After posting the Q, I figured it out in about 15 minutes.
Insert DVD.
Open Br
Navigate to DVD
Select all images
Right Click - Batch Rename
Choose Destination Path and New file name.
And go!
If you've had the same problem I did, hope this helps.

I cannot import images from my camera directly into Elements Organizer

I am trying to import images into Elements Organizer from my Canon EOS 6D, but it doesn't work properly. I am expecting the images to appear in the Elements Organizer, but the images are only imported onto disk. At the moment I have to re-import images from the disk location as a second step. How can I perform this in one step, as I have seen this in the tutorials?
I am on a Mac using Yosemite using version 13 of Elements Organizer.

There is no "into". LR and PS just reference your photos on the hard drive.
When you import your photos "into" the LR catalog, LR can copy the images off your memory cards to the hard drive if you have not already copied them, but the photos are referenced by the LR catalog by the path and filename for the files.
If you are having problems getting the images off the cards, what steps are you using and what error messages are you getting?

Problem with importing images from Nikon S60

I have been using photoshop elements for several years - currently on Version 8. I've had no issues importing images from my Nikon D70 - I choose the option to store the images in folders by "shot date" and this has always worked.
My wife has started using a Nikon S60 to take photos - when trying to import these photos they all end up in a folder with today's date. I've treid a couple of times to be sure that I didn't make a mistake in setting the import options. I've checked the "properties" of the images and the date their shows the shot date...
any ideas?

Seems unusual behavior. I guess the obvious thing to do is to simply rename the folder although that’s a bit annoying.
Have you tried selecting one of the other shot date formats from the downloader, perhaps to match the camera date format?

Imported images from my iPhone became corrupted after importing.

I Imported images from my iPhone and they became corrupted after importing. They appeared fine just after import, so I unfortunately erased my phone. When I reopened the aperture project where they were stored they had streaks, some were only partially visible, and others had no image just an exclaimation point with the words "incompatible file". thanks in advance for any suggestions or help.

What you describe are very typical symptoms: You import; the images look to be o.k.; you go ahead and delete them. The problem is that during the import you only see the previews created by your camera, not the actual images you are importing. When you afterwards try to edit or to enlarge the images Aperture will recreate its own, better previews and needs to access the original master image files. If Aperture cannot find the master image files or cannot open them, you may see warnings (unsupported) or corrupted thumbnails. Only then you will notice if the images have been imported correctly, and that may be too late, if you deleted the images from your camera.
How did you import? Are the imported master image files managed or referenced, i.e. included in the Aperture Library or referenced outside?
I'd suggest you look directly at the master image files to check if they are o.k. and can be read by other applications.
If your master image files are managed you'll find the images in the Aperture Library by right-clicking the Aperture Library package and selecting "Show Package Contents". Then Browse the folder "Masters". The master image files are stored in subfolders organized by the date of the import session.
If your master image files are referenced, open the folder where you told Aperture to move them to.
Check for two things:
Have all your images really been imported?
What is the format and the state of the images? Try to open the images with Preview, or any other image editor you have and check if they really are corrupted, or if only Aperture has a problem to access them.
If all your images are there, but Aperture cannot access them, your Aperture library may need fixing.
Back up your Aperture library (just a precaution) and use the Aperture Library First Aid Tools to repair the permissions or/and to repair the database; see this section of the Aperture 3 User Manual on how to do that: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
If repairing and rebuilding did not help, but you found the original masters and can read them, then copy them to a location outside Aperture and try to convert them to another file format with Preview or another application that can read them. Then try again to import those files to Aperture.
Post back, if you have more questions.
Good Luck

Trouble importing images from folders

I tired importing photos from one folder and about 300-400 of them weren't imported (out of about 1,000). I deleleted them and tried again. Same thing. On the third try it imported all of them.
My thought was maybe it's going to take more time importing images from my folders than learning to use the program. I can't learn the program if it keeps dropping images. I tried another directory
of about 3,000 images but it only accepted about 300 of them. No matter how many times I tried, it would only import 300 out of the whole batch. These are good jpg files that all my other programs
have no trouble with.

Thanks for the response. Just before I read your reply I tried one more time and I caught what I was doing wrong. There was was a checkbox regarding file size. I read it wrong. It looks as though Elements has it checked as a default, and, well, I unchecked it and everything was imported fine. Thanks again.
