Is there a driver for eh HP Scanjet 3970 that will work with lion?

The scanner worked fine under snow Leopard.
HP Scanjet 3970

Gee. not sure I can remember all the steps! It was so much a trial and error process.
I ended up with these apps installed:
VueScan  ( free version) , HP Device Manager Version 1.4.7 (1.4.7), and  HP Scan Pro Version 7.4.6

I deleted all previous versions of the scanning software that came with my HP scanner 3970
Even though VueScan didn't solve the problems it may have something in it that helped.

By the way I had two different responses from HP technical telling me that my HP 3970 scanner would not work in lion. But I am happily still using my scanner in Lion!

    Hi RayBlack.
    There is a driver available for the 32-bit version of Windows Vista, however, the L80 does not support printing on the 64-bit version of the Windows operating system.  You can download the driver by clicking on the link below:

    Click the drop-down arrow for [Drivers] and then select the fax printer driver.  Select "I Agree - Begin Download" to download the driver.

  • Is there a newer version than 3.6.25 that will work with windows 7 and 16 bit?

    Hi I am using firefox 3.6.25 version it works fine but certain wesites are not supporting this version anymore they want me to upgrarde to a newer version but I can't. Everytime I use any other version of firefox I get an error from Sendoria saying that the website has been blocked or that there is an error in the way I typed the website address in. I need a stable webbrowser that will work with a 16 bit window 7 machine. The websites are as follows
    1. Tube8.com
    2. usajobs.gov
    3. The other website which is my homepage for email is Verizon.net they do not support the 3.6.25 version anymore and I want to be able to make the companies that I subscribe to happy.

    No, 3.6.3 is an older version. 3.6.11 was just released on Monday.

  • Will there ever be an upgrade for Lightroom 3 that will work with Nikon d800 NEF files?

    Will there ever be an upgrade to Lightroom 3 that will work with Nikon D800 NEF files?

    Why not use Lightroom 4 instead?
    I mean, assuming you can get it running fast enough, you'll usually get better results with PV2012 - right? And in the cases where you prefer PV2010 (if there are any), it's there too...

  • I only use Windows XP, is there a version of Lightroom that will work with XP

    I only use Windows XP, is there a version of Lightroom that will work with XP

    Yes if you want to run Version 1....you can still download version 1.4.1 (the last update to Version 1), and your serial number would be good for that.
    But if you want to run Version 2 or Version 3 you'll need to buy a new license (i.e. a new serial number), but if you have a valid serial number from any prior version you only have to pay for the upgrade license for the later version, not the full license.

    Sorry about above 'pre' font - for some reason it would not let me do a normal post. It should have been as follows:

    I use a LaserWriter 16/600 PS plugged into my router via an adaptor.
    There are probably many old Color StyleWriters out there: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StyleWriter
    Some of these had Canon engines and Canon produced their own almost identical versions.

  • HT204266 looking for the old Netflix app that will work on original Ipad with ios 5.1.1

    looking for the old Netflix app that will work on original Ipad with ios 5.1.1

    Netflix does in fact have the old version of their app available.
    In iTunes on your computer, download the App you want a compatible version for using the same Apple Id that the iPad has for the App Store. For Paid Apps its best to consult with the App maker to make sure there is a compatible App. With the App Downloaded to iTunes on a computer you can go into The App Store App on your iPad, Tap on Purchased, and Look for the App there. Tap on it to begin the download. It will likely say its not compatible, but if there is a compatible version it will offer to download it. Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X

  • Is there a new adapter that will work with iphone 4s to hdmi with ios 8 update

    Hi just wondering if there is an adapter out there that will work with the new IOS 8 update -- iphone 4s to HDMI.  Ever since I updated mine will not work.  Same thing for the iPad mini.  I want to purchase my daughters the iPad Mini for Christmas but will not unless there is an adapter capable of doing this.

    This is not my problem. However, I think it may be related to an old speaker. I was using the 30 pin adapter for about a week after the upgrade to 7.1.2. But I think with the update the speaker won't work anymore. I will try with a new speaker system. Thank you for trying to assist.

  • Will Safari 5.1.10 work for all versions of 10.6 or just version 10.6.8? If it requires 10.6.8 then what is the latest version of Sarari that will work with 10.6.6?

    Will Safari 5.1.10 work with all versions 10.6 or does it require 10.6.8? If it does require 10.6.8 then what is the latest version of Safari that will work with 10.6.6?
    Thanks
    Eric

    This Mac currently has Safari 5.0.4. Software Update shows a newer version of iTunes and of course the combo updater to 10.6.8 but nothing else. I imagine the 10.6.8 updater contains a later version of Safari but I don't now which version it is and whether it is backward compatible with older versions of 10.6. There are a number of newer versions of Safari: 5.0.5. 5.0.6, 5.1.1, 5.1.2, . . . 5.1.10 to name a few but would any of them work with 10.6.6? In a similar thread a guy asked a similar question to mine: he had 10.6.6 and wanted to upgrade to a newer version of Safari. He tried installing various versions but was rejected each time. He finally asked if there was any newer version of Safari that would install on 101.6.6 - but he never got an answer.
    Software Update displayed a newer iTunes but no mention of Safari. I wonder if this indicates that the 5.0.4 Safari that I have is the latest version there is for 10.6.6. Anybodyknow for sure?
    TIA

  • Does anyone have a suggestion for an alternative to iCal that will interface with the Cloud? I find iCal to be poorly designed and not very efficient.

    Does anyone have a suggestion for an alternative to iCal that will interface with the Cloud so it works on the iPhone and the Macbook? I find iCal to be poorly designed and not very efficient. I waste a lot of time entering information because you can't go to a specific day and enter information, nor can you navigate between months and add information on a specific date by clicking on the date. You can't easily scroll month-to-month and once you do by scrolling through nine months to get to where you want to be, you cannot enter information by clicking on a specific day in the month and entering information. I just called Apple and they verified that this is the way it works. You cannot go to a date and enter information, you keep getting thrown back to today and then you have to go into the calendar and change it manually on the screen. It is just not efficient.

    APC, CyberPower are reliable.
    Look for 1500VA. As example:

  • Looking for shelf system that will work with 5th gen 8g Nano?

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a shelf stereo system with integrated iPod dock that will work with my 5th gen 8 gig Nano that I received as a gift. I've been researching this and have a found a few candidates such as the JVC UX-GN8 or UX-LP5, or the SONY CMT-BX20i. But... have been unable to confirm if they work with this new 5th generation model. Anyone have one of those units, or something similar, that works? Also, is it true that the Apple Cradle ($49.99+cable) has some problems docking the 5th generation Nano in the sense that all the features are not accessible (audio, video, etc.)? Thanks for any and all responses.

    have been unable to confirm if they work with this new 5th generation model.
    If their websites do not specifically state that their product works with the *iPod Nano 5th Generation _with video,*_ its more likely their product is not compatible. You can try calling them if possible to confirm.
    Have you checked MacMall's website?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Any external optical drive will work with your Mac. If you want an Apple USB SuperDrive, see > http://www.tuaw.com/2012/04/02/use-the-macbook-air-superdrive-with-any-almost-ma c/
    The best option is to take the Mac to an Apple Store and get the Mac's SuperDrive repaired
