Is everybody having problems with Canoscan drivers-can anyone help, please?

After starting with Leopard, my LIDE25 refuses to work, and the window from the toolbox tells me a driver cannot be found, even after redownloading the driver, which, according to the Canon website, is perfectly compatible with the LIDE25 driver. Someone is not being honest, or Apple has made a huge mistake in the bug department. My smart mailboxes don't work either.Can anyone help? I see there are others with Canon scanner driver problems on this forum - what can we do? I'm so tired of fragile scanners breaking down and needing replacement - they are like VCRs in this respect, somehow a crap technology - but this time it's surely not the scanner to blame.

I have a Conoscan 8400F scanner, and after downloading the latest driver it actually works BETTER than it ever has... used to take almost 3 minutes to scan a 8.5 X 11 page, now less than a minute.

  • Having trouble with enhanced podcasts, Can anyone help me adjust my iPod?

    Whenever I listen to my enhanced podcasts through iTunes, I have no problems viewing the photos the podcaster included in the program. However, when I play the same podcast in my iPod, the photos will not show. I only see the timeline with the little segments that represent the chapters. I can hit the forward and back arrows and I am taken the to the next chapter marker. But, unfortunately, I do not see the photos, as I do see them in iTunes.
    Can anyone help me adjust my iPod to enable it to play enhanced podcasts correctly?
    According to the iPod manuals, I should be able to see enhanced podcasts with no trouble.
    Thanks.

    I have solved it myself. Here's how I did it:
    In iTunes, go to Edit and click to Show Art Work and leave it as "Hide Art Work." (Now it will download the enhanced messages.)
    Now go to the iPod: From the Main Menu, go to Settings. At the Settings, go to the other Main Menu. From this Main Menu, go to Music and make sure that the following are on:
    Playlists, Photos, and Photo Import, Videos, and Extras.
    Good Luck.

  • Hi there can anyone help as i am unable to contact Apple for support with my printer which will not print after recent software update? this is the email i tried to send to apple with no success, can anyone help please.......Dear Apple, I'm pulling my hai

    Hi there,
    Can anyone out there help, after a recent Apple software update my Epson Stylus Photo RX640 will no longer print, every other aspect of the printer works fine including the scanner but it just will not print, I sent an email to apple but all i got was an automated reply directing me to their support page, the email i sent is below this explains in full what the problem is & what i have done to try & fix this problem.
    Dear Apple,
    I'm pulling my hair out after a recent software update from apple, since this update my Epson Stylus Photo RX640 will not print, every other function of the printer including the scanner works fine,
    Please see attached file of the error message coming up in the print queue.
    I have spent days trying to fix this, i have been onto Epsons website & followed their resolution for this error message to no avail, after contacting them again with the results i got an email back saying : In response to your email, the RX640 will use an inbox or gutenprint driver on Mac OS X 10.6.8, it is not compatible with an Epson driver.
    I have also tried re-installing drivers from original Discs for the printer but it still will not print, obviously this error has been caused by Apple's latest software update, when are Apple going to fix this problem? i need my printer working ASAP.
    Regards
    Brian
    PS i obviously can't attach the error message so here it is:    Error:/Library/Printer/Epson/inkjetprinter 2/filter/rastertoescpll.app/contents/mac os/rastertoescpll/failed
    Thank You all in advance
    Regards
    Brian

    It is hardly Apple's fault that Epson can't/won't update their driver, but at least Epson suggest that you use the Gutenprint driver, which in any case is far better that what Epson offer.
    You can get it here:
    http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/
    You can download the latest version from here:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-print/
    Have you downloaded the recent Apple update to Epson drivers?

  • I am having a major problem with swapfiles. Can anyone help

    I have had a recurring issue for a few months now with accumulating swapfiles. My system drive fills with these files (65 x 1.9gb, the latest) slowing down the system due to finite disk space and causing some maintenence to be carried out. I have up to now been able to get rid of them using the finder to delete the actual files after making them visible in the finder(using IceClean by MacDentro). I can also use Omni disk sweeper to see the space on the drive as well as Disk Inventory X. Now I cannot delete the files. They have conglomerated into a unknown space that cannot be grabbed and trashed nor physically deleted through the finder.
    I am using an SSD 120gb drive with a system size count of 42gb. Bar 5gb the rest is this ether space that wont go away. I have a feeling that this is going to need to terminal commands witch I do not have at my disposal. Can any please help? This is driving me mad. I have reset the PRAM numerous times but this is too lightweight.
    Hard core terminal shyte, Bring it on. Please
    regards

  • Hello, I'm having problems with my new GX60. Help please...

    Hi first I want to congrats MSI for the good quality of their products. That's why I decided to buy a laptop, but here is my experience and my problems also. First I bought my laptop regarding the language problems, because it came with Windows 7 in Chinese, and thankfully to a chinese friend I could buy it.
    First, I couldn't find a MSI laptop in my country, and now that I won a scholarship in China i Decided to buy one here...in China!!
    And then I decided to go for MSI, and it's quite brand-new GX60-1AC...that is my first problem, I couldn't find the laptop model in the list and I registered my serial with another model that it's not mine....my model is a gaming series, the GX60-1AC, and mistakenly I've chose the GX600 which is an old model...
    --So, would you can change it for me please? because I want all the benefits of the warranty and want to extend it, please. Thanks for this priority problem.
    And the second problem is that I guess there is a promotion of Windows 8 about this laptops, the Gaming Series laptops. And I want to upgrade my laptop to Windows 8, but I don't know how to do it. Please help me out to do this. I can give you all the information you need. The receipt, original serial and other stuff.
    Thanks in advance and keep the good support.

    Thanks....I've downloaded that program, and it says that the CPU #0 is at 45 degrees....seems to be normal
    The Min is at 42 degrees and the Max is at 46 degrees.....
    And about the auto fan control, is there a way to modify it? I mean I want that the fan starts to spin at 5 minutes, or when the temperature rises to 60 degrees, as a example....is there a way to do that? because the fan starts to spin every 30 seconds, and the sound is somewhat annoying...is not too loud but you can hear it very clearly.......... so I don't know when and how it has to sound...is there any guide to know when a fan is defective?
    I mean probably MSI has some standard about the loudness of the fan...
    Also, thanks for the support, if this can help anyone else about something it could be great.
    PD. By the way I was reading about the EC resetting, is there any benefit to do that? and how about the battery calibration? I've spent my whole night without sleeping to make it work but in the end Windows 7 decided to sleep because the battery was at a critical level and when I restarted the Battery Calibration program was no responding and it was closed by Windows. >(
    Is there a guide of how to do that?
    PDD. Also I recently found about fan buzzing? fan whining? it could be possible for a new laptop...I can't distinguish both terms. And I can hear it just right after turning on the laptop and while I use it without playing nor doing anything else more than surfing in the web, like now.
    PDDD. Damn! I found that the Techpowerup GPU-Z shows me that the integrated GPU, the 7660G, is at 88 degrees!!! Here is a pic:
    Then HWmonitor tells me that it's at 43 degrees!?!!? is there any good and real program to get the real temperatures? Here is the pic from HWmonitor:

  • Problems with constructors? can anyone help

    I want to use the Math.random() class to generate a random number
    to fill an array.In the 2 constructors i have this:
    private int[] rand;
    public Randomize(int ra[])
    {rand = new int[7];}
    public Randomize()
    {Math.random();}
    *note ra is a formal parameter
    but nothing happens. The array rand does not fill up with random numbers
    how can i fill it up with random numbers?

    Hi Mike,
    The Math.random() is a static method that returns a double value with a positive sign, greater than or equal to 0.0 and less than 1.0.
    It does not return an array or a int. If you use the Math.random method, you will have to cast your double into an int. Also you need to create a for loop to fill your array and add code to check that the value returned from the Math.random method has not already been used.

  • Problems with Safari update: can you help please?

    Hi, the Software Updater recommended to update to Safari 4.0.3
    After I download it and clicked on Install, I got the following message:
    "The update “Safari” can’t be saved. You do not have appropriate access privileges. "
    After running the "Repair Disk Permissions" procedure of the Disk Utility (as suggested in a previous post) which found and repaired quite a number of permissions I tried to re-run the Safari update, but am getting exactly the same message as before.
    Since I am the administrator and the only user of this Mac, (running OS X 10.5) I am puzzled, especially since all other updates download and install without any problem. Any advice will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance
    Veit

    Thanks, Sig, for the quick response. I am presently downloading Safari 4 as you advised. Will install and report back.
    But would you know why the AUTOMATIC update did not work, i.e. resulted in these "you have no access privileges" message?

  • My ipod touch screen has gone white with bright white spots, I have restored it but it is still white.  It shows in ITunes but I cant do anything with it.  Can anyone help please

    My Ipod touch screen has gone white with bright white spots on it.  I have restored it and it shows in ITunes but the screen is still white.  Is there anything I can do? The warranty has run out so I will have to pay for any repairs (if it can be repaired).  Any help would be much appreciated.  Thank you in advance.

    If you still have problems after restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod then you very likely have a hardware problem.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • I have lost my itunes icon from my desktop. I have recently downloaded windows 9 and thought maybe this had something to do with it. Can anyone help me get it back?

    I've lost my itunes icon from my desktop and can't see it anywhere else. I have recently upgraded to windows 9 and thought maybe this had something to do with it. Can anyone help please?

    Has iTunes been uninstalled or removed from you system?
    Is it no longer in the Start Menu or in Control Panel?
    What exactly was downloaded and installed?  There is no Windows 9, so it's not possible that it is installed on your computer.
