Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 and Epson ME office 900WD scanner driver
Since upgrading to Mac OS X Mavericks version 10.9.4., I cannot scan on my Espon ME office 900WD. I even downloaded the driver software from the Epson website and it was not compatible with Mavericks. Has any one got this combination of OS and printer/scanner to work, and if so which driver did you use. Alternatively is there another way to scan without the Espon driver?
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

I just installed Maverick to my imacG5 and now my Office 2004 doesn't work??
I just installed Maverick to my imacG5 and now my Office 2004 doesn't work?? Where do I go from here??
Thanks.You have given us inaccurate info about your iMac.
The G5 iMac is all white and runs a IBM Power PC (non-Intel) CPU that cannot run any OS X version above OS X 10.5.8.
OS X 10.6- 10.9 all run on much newer Intel CPU iMacs that have aluminum enclosures.
Typically, mid-2007 models and later.
The iMac model you described can't possibly run OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
Please download, install and run Etrecheck.
Etrecheck is a small, unobstrusive app that compiles a snapshot of your entire Mac hardware system and all installed software.

Copy/paste and post its report here in another reply thread so that we have a complete profile of your Mac's hardware and installed software so we have accurate information about IMac to help both you and us begin to troubleshoot and solve the performance and technical issues with your Mac running OS X 10.9 Mavericks.

Can someone please help me re-install my Creative Design 5.5 on my Mac? My MacBook Pro recently crashed and had to have the hard drive replaced. The back up from Time Machine is not reinstalling the program. Since I have the download paid, and codes, I need direction on how to reinstall -- HELP?
Hi bodegakc,
If you have the serial number then please use the below mentioned link to download the product you are looking for .
CS5.5
Also before installing Please go to Applications-->Utilities--> Adobe installers and if there is any uninstaller for CS5.5 , you can remove it and do a fresh install.
You can also use creative cloud cleaner tool before installing.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Thanks

Need scanner App for Dock. I have Maverick 10.9.5 and Epson Perfection V500 photo. My present app 3.7.1 won't work. Otherwise I have to go into System Preferences every time I scan to Select to switch from the Printer. Thanks for help.
You might give VueScan a try. It should work with your scanner. There's a demo version that you can use initially.

Brother MFC 5100C and Epson R320 recognized but no driver installed
Hum, I'm spoofed and apprently I'm not the only one.
The overkill MFC ControlCenter2 is installed and can scan from the Brother MFC however in the System Preferences/Print&Fax/Set Up Printers, I don't see them. I see another HP printer I use to help out.
I've reinstalled both latest drivers from Brother and Epson but when I don['t see it in the list and try to add it using USB on Auto Slect (which is grayed out) it says looking for drivers and returns nothing leaving me with only Cancel as an option.
What am I doing wrong? Is this a question of uninstalling all Brother and Epson stuff and reinstalling? Can anyone tell me which folders to look into?
Much appreciate any help.
NickThanks Greg, I tried your excellent recommendation. It didnt repair the Epson USB feature that Epson asked me to remove. Yes, I'm a dork for not backing up a copy. I thought it would be easy to find an updated one.
Still no go. Epson is trying to help me also.
I can't believe I am having pprinting problems with my Mac. It's like the nightmares of Windows printing all over again. I'm pretty shocked I am haing problems printing on an Epson nder OSX.3.9.
Thanks for your ideas and hints. IF anyone has any ideas also. -

I've had issues with my iPhoto "not responding" and as a result I am attempting to save my photos to an external hard drive using iPhoto library Manager but each time I start the program it saves some, and then when it starts iPhoto, iPhoto then goes into not responding mode. Using mac book pro, iphoto 9.5.1, and maverick 10.9.2. I have completed all of the photo library first aid steps several times, but it makes no difference, iphoto eventually goes to "not responding." Initial issues started with Time Machine back ups stopping because of iphoto. Thanks......
Do you have a back up?
If you're just trying to recover the photos you can do that much more simply:
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Originals' or 'Masters'. (varies according to the version of iPhoto)
Your photos are inside - these are the originals as imported from your camera. -

Is there a fix ?Try Image Capture, it is located in your Applications Folder.

This is my first post. Hope I am entering it correctly.
Open Office requires Java which exposes Macs to Hackers. A recent MacWorld magazine recommends removing Java which is not loaded with Mavericks. Could my Mac Pro been comprised with Java being present?
Other Problems:
When Time Machine is backing up the Icon in the Menu Bar no longer turns to indicate it is backing up.
In System Preferences > Security and Privacy > General, Option and Advance selections are dimmed. Unable to make selections.
Opening Apps very slow.
If I make a search and then select one of the items from the search, when I close the item it goes to the top of the search items and not back from where it was selected to open. So it is no longer in alphabetical order from the search items. I cannot drag it to its original position in the list.
The App CleanMYMac 2 keeps opening a window asking me if I want to open the App.Could my Mac Pro been comprised with Java being present?
Java running inside your Browser, accessible from unknown Web sites is the threat.
Having Java Present is not a significant threat. If you run only trusted Applications, the threat is very small.
When Time Machine is backing up the Icon in the Menu Bar no longer turns to indicate it is backing up.
Apple realized that spinning Icon punished screen refresh, and changed the design. Now a subtle triangle appears and stays still while the backup is in progress.

The App CleanMYMac 2 keeps opening a window asking me if I want to open the App.
Many Users consider Apps like clean my mac to be dangerous. These Apps have a habit of throwing away parts of Mac OS X that are needed for proper operation. No one needs to run such stuff -- Mac OS X takes care of cleaning itself. The space freed does not generally improve performance, and throwing away caches usually slows down your Mac (until the caches are re-created and then the so-called problem has not been solved). -

The application manager provides activation and online features, so no, unisntalling is not an option or else your Adobe software would go defunct.

My Safari browser is not working well. Junk pages keep popping up and key pages, for me, appear intoxicated by alien pop ups preventing me navigate that page.
I updated to latest Safari version (7.0.4) but the problem persists.
I tried downloading a new version of Safari for Mac OS X Mavericks but couldn't find it available.
Thanks for your help.The pop ups are malware. It's not necessary to reinstall Safari.
