Mac os x 10.7.4 connected to a photosmart c309a. Scan documents to word and edit?

I have a mac os x 10.7.4 connected to a photosmart c309a.  I use the mac drivers to scan document.  Everything is updated and working fine.  However, I would like to scan a document, copy it to word, and edit.  How can I do this?

The OCR software does not necessarily need to integrate with the HP Photosmart driver.  You scan the document, save it as a JPG, TIFF, PDF or whatever and then run the OCR software against the scanned file.
I use Readiris with an HP AIO printer on Lion and it works just fine, using MS Word to edit the results.

  • I installed Nik:s suite of plug-ins for LR5 but for some reason not all of them were installed. In the end I uninstalled all of the Nik programs from my Mac but before I reinstalled them I opened LR5 again to check. Under "photo" and "edit in" the plug-in

    I installed Nik:s suite of plug-ins for LR5 but for some reason not all of them were installed. In the end I uninstalled all of the Nik programs from my Mac but before I reinstalled them I opened LR5 again to check. Under "photo" and "edit in" the plug-ins were still presented but no programs opened, of course. after reinstalling the plug-ins one of the programs appeared twice in the list but not the others. I´m going to reinstall them again and I´m wondering if there is anyway of erasing the links to the plug-ins under "photo" and "edit in" ???

    Wow that was really quick, thank you so much.  Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it.  I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names.  isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
    So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
    either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

    Update to latest patched version that no longer relies on Rosetta and PowerPC
    Visit www.RoaringApps.com for a list and table of what version is supported, can be updated and which are not.
    A year ago this was news.
    Hopefully people kept a boot drive with the old OS so they could dual boot for a month or two whiile sorting out the changes and updates.

  • Following upgrade to osx 10.8.2 on my mac mini I can no longer connect to icloud, I wouldn't mind so much but I have come to rely on th eicloud services to manage my work and home services, has any1 else experienced this and has any1 any solutions?

    Had the same problem this morning after updating to 10.8.2. Mail was finding my dot-mac account as always, but System Preferences popped up and said my iCloud password was incorrect. Did the "forgot password" reset, but still had the same problem. Then I went to icloud.com in Safari, logged in with the new password, it worked no problem. So I went back to the icloud preference pane, signed out of icloud, answered yes to all the warnings about data being deleted from my mac, blah blah blah, then re-signed in to icloud. Everything worked. I did have to set up my icloud account in Mail again, which now lists the account mailbox as "iCloud", and not "mac.com" as it did before. But so far, everything is working (fingers crossed.)

  • I'm about to buy a 27" i-Mac. I would like to connect my 30" Cinema Display to it as a second monitor. What will I need to do that? Will this slow down the overal performance?

    The new iMacs do not come with a MiniDisplayPort, they have Thunderbolt, so unless you are talking about purchasing one of the previous generation iMacs such as this refurbished model in the online Apple store, it won't work. And yes, if you are going to get the full range of video resolutions you will need the Dual-Link version.
    For details see the store's web page on the Dual-Link display adapter.

  • Mac Pro does not stay consistently connected to internet

    Okay, I will try to be as detailed as possible...
    I recently moved and had a new internet connection set up. The company replaced the modem and router I previously had (against my will) with their modem/wireless router combo. My Mac Pro has a wired connection, while all other devices (iPods, iPhones, PC laptop, etc.) in my home are wireless. The wireless devices all work consistently fine, however, the Mac does not. Typically, while having network diagnostics open, I reset the modem and everything is fine. After a few minutes, or after closing diagnostics, it no longer works again. Today, even after restarting the modem and getting all green lights, it doesn't seem to connect at all.
    I have Windows installed under boot camp and the connection there works perfectly fine. This tells me there is an issue within my OSX settings, and not the equipment or connection. After learning this, my cable company's tech support basically told me to get lost and contact Apple. Though I'm paying them an obsene amount of money for crappy internet service, they really could care less about ensuring that their products at least work with their customers' equipment (they even told me they're tech support is unfamiliar with OSX).
    I'm guessing something in my network settings is causing this, but I don't have enough in-depth knowledge about this particular subject to troubleshoot it myself. I'm desperate for a good samaritan to help as my business can no longer operate until I have working internet access.
    PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

    Disable the router function in the modem they provided and you can continue to use yours.
    Modems, esp. cable, you may be able to return it.
    There may be a list of modems that are compatible on their service - even some that aren't listed will be like SB6121.
    And are you paying a monthly fee for their modem?
    Others have "commented on" the Mac Pro not negotiating as well. But it was when you used your own router, right ?
    I am totally sold on
    having modem and router separate
    Netgear routers - got the WNDR3400v2 last year and thinking about the next level, the R6300 probably this fall. I can even configure and monitor from iPad, iPhone, Android and their desktop app (Win and Mac).
    I wonder if like my ISP they have a support forum, I'd be lost w/o. They can check the modem remote login and see what the modem is logging (over my head).
    Had some odd electrial spike - 3x in a minute going onto UPS but not an outage. Spikes? left their modem 50% function and semi-crippled. I had to reset modem or it would reset itself I should say every 5-10 minutes at times. ISP could not tell until they got there. Then they found the modem was unable to connect to their activation page and had to replace it and the drop point on the telephone pole 70 ft away.
    I now keep a spare modem of my own (SB6121) and continue to use theirs, Cisco.
    You do have the ability to use your router, just not double-NAT is all.

  • I have a WD Passport HD attached to my Mac. When it was last connected it went into sleep mode and ran out of battery. Now I cannot find my HD in Finder and Disk Utilities is telling me it cannot repair the HD. Any ideas on how to recover my data?

    I have a WD Passport HD attached to my Mac. When it was last connected it went into sleep mode and ran out of battery. Now I cannot find my HD in Finder and Disk Utilities is telling me it cannot repair the HD. I can see the HD but the volume part is greyed out. Any ideas on how to recover my data?

    There are other methodologies of scanning a HD
    which involve data extraction, but loss of metadata is often the result if the directory is corrupt.
    Metadata is the info on what the data IS. 
    Like having all your papers thrown in the air, its all there, but just a giant mess. 
    This is why you always always must have several external HD redundancies of your data.  One isnt enough, neither is two really.

  • Mac Mini doesn't see PC connected via AirPort

    I created a wireless network using the AirPort built into the Mac Mini. My PC laptop connects to this network, but I can't find the PC or any of its components from the Mac. I am new to AirPort so maybe I don't know where to look. However, it seems there should be some icon for the PC on my desktop or in the finder. Is this a Mac/PC compatibility issue?

    To see the PC:
    1. In the Finder, press Command-K.
    2. Enter the PC's IP address.
    3. Authenticate with your username and password form the PC (You need a password for this to work)
    Then if you want, write an Automator app to do that for you and a keychain for your passwords.
    Hope this helps!

  • Mac to PC computer-to-computer connection

    I'm visiting my folks and I've established a wireless computer to computer network from my mac to their pc. It connected fine, however I cannot connect to the internet from my mac. The pc is connected to DSL via an ethernet line, and I selected to allow its internet to be shared by other computers. What can I do?

    Hi Richard, Tiger doesn't do File Sharing, (computer to computer), and Internet Sharing very well together. I'm not quite sure how the PC handles it, but for Internet Sharing they will still have different Subnets.
    Did you create this c2c on the PC or the Mac? Are you seeing shared docs on the PC?
    The Mac may not be getting DNS either, so Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Interface you connect with...
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    Then Apply.
    Find IP on computers...
    http://www.helpdesk.umd.edu/topics/communication/ethernet/office/winxp/2882/
    What is the IP of the PC's Wireless and the IP of the Mac's Airport? Don't post the PC's outside/internet IP of the Ethernet connection.

    Is there any way to discover what VPNs my laptop has set up? I don't have any additional software that is specific to VPNs, so it would have to be something already built into the OS. Does the Transmission application create a VPN? That is the only thing I can think of.
    Any other ideas on what might be causing this message?
    Your help is appreciated!
    A.

    If you have a VPN installed (by mistake?) you should be able to go to your System Prefs > Network and see the VPN listed in the left hand column along with Aiport and Ethernet. You can un-install by using the minus button at the bottom of the column.
    The link provided shows you how to install a VPN client with screen shots, including one of this Network Prefs screen and what a VPN client looks like.

    You can, but how are you going to back up those other files?  When (not if) your Time Capsule fails, you risk losing them.  See #Q3 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule for details.
    Then can i access these files only on the time capsule without connecting it?
    Not sure what you mean.  You have to connect a computer, either via Ethernet cable or wirelessly, to read or write to the disk.
