Mac PSE9 Epson 4990 Photo Scanner support

I just installed PSE9 on an iMac (Snow Leopard). PSE9 does not see the Epson 4990 Photo scanner in the "import" option.
This scanner shows up on this computer in the "import" option in PSE8. Both versions of PSE are installed on this computer
The latests version of the scanner driver is installed.
What can I do to make the scanner work in PSE9?
Thanks.

Epson scanners rely on the adobe TWAIN driver, which is not installed by default in PSE 9. Go to Applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements 9>Optional Plug-Ins>ImportModules, and move TWAIN.plugin from there into Applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements 9>Plug-Ins>ImportModules.

Elements 13 does not recognise Epson Perfection 4990 photo scanner

I just installed Elements 13 (also have 11 and 12 installed). I have installed 13 as a 64 bit (windows 8), but cannot get it to recognize my Epson perfection 4990 photo scanner (or Perfect Effects 4, for that matter). Any ideas? I copied the PlugIN files from 12 to 13, but so far no dice.

Photoshop Elements 11 does not recognize Epson Perfection 4990 Photo Scanner from "File"/"Import"

I just upgraded from Photoshop Elements 6 to Elements 11 on a brand new iMac running OS X 10.8.2, but Elements 11 will not recognize my Epson Perfection 4990 PHOTO Scanner as an option to import from when I click on "File" then "Import." Is there a Plug-In that may be missing for this to operate as it used to in Elements 6 running on an older G5 Non-Intel processor? I don't have the new Elements 11 Disk to copy anything from, since I downloaded the program directly from Adobe.

Epson V500 Photo scanner wireless connection

I would like to make a wireless connection to my Epson V500 (Photo) scanner to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks. It is unclear if this is possible from the Epson side and on the MacBook Pro side the Scanner doesn't show up under Preferences>Sharing or Preferences>Printers & Scanners BUT I can scan from the laptop if connected by USB cable.
Questions:
A. Can the Epson V500 (Photo) be accessed wirelessly?
B. If yes to above, how do I set this up on the MacBook?
Thank you

Hello,
I have a MacPro 1,1 running Lion 10.7.2. Everything seems to be up to date via software update. I have an Epson V500 Photo scanner (USB), and the system recognizes that...
I ran into a similar problem (loss of functionality) with an Epson 7600. I traced my problem to letting software update substitute its Epson drivers for what Epson had originally provided for the printer. It got worse when installing Lion. Fortunately, I expected that problem so I applied the updates to clones of the working installation, using both more recent Epson software for their long-abandoned printer and what came down with software update. Testing the clones showed me that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" so I stayed with the old installation, updating only the system software to 10.6.8.
You may face a further issue in that the working Epson software may have been at least partially written in code meant to run on a PPC Mac, not Intel, and Apple removed all support for that when moving from 10.6 to 10.7. That may be why Epson shows printer driver support only through 10.6 on its website.
One of the beauties of the Mac Pro is that you can have multiple HD drives with multiple partitions so there's plenty of room to do tests like that. But it really shouldn't be necessary...

ELEMENTS 11: I want to import files from my Epson 4490 Photo scanner and I can not use WIA feature.

I would like to import photos that I have scanned with my Epson 4490 photo scanner. I am scanning slides and it appears that I can not use the WAI feature that is offered in photoshop elements 11. I am able to import using photoshop elements 2. Has the functionality been lost in the newer version?

Try installing the TWAIN plug-in - http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/twain-installed-photoshop-elements-11.html.

Anyone using epson 4990 photo & avasys driver? Experienc

I think about purchasing a "Scanner Epson Perfection 4990 Photo" flatbet scanner, to scan this and that - and to scan photos, dias, negatives.
So, bevore waisting my money, I would ask you if anyhone can tell me about how this thing works in archlinux, how the driver (http://www.avasys.jp/english/linux_e/dl_scan.html) and software behaves. Any experiences?
Furthermore, if anyone uses a different scanner for this jobs, please tell me about it.

I am unsure about the dependencies, it compiled fine here. Maybe anyone would give it a try, see supported scanners here:

Epson 1400 photo scanner not connecting to Photoshop after Mavericks update

I updated to Mavericks and now the Epson 1400 Scanner photo will not show up in Photoshop CS5. Udated new drivers, still no result. What step am I missing?

Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 will not recognize Epson V600 Photo scanner for film ?

For some reason the WIA support in PE9 will only recognize the scanner for reflective prints not film, why ?
But, in the PE 6 the Epson V600 scanner is recognized for film scanning,, in professional mode and automatic.
Any clues ?

Epson nx415 printer/scanner support

I have this device but have no idea how to get Arch Linux to recognize it. I found nothing on the wiki so I thought asking here would be okay. Thank you.

I had a similar experience with a Canon LIDE500 scanner. Because the scanner had been well used, I agreed to their "Loyality" offer. Their price was consierably lower than local retail, and the 500 had been a good scanner. My "new" scanner arrived missing the soft pads on two of the four feet. I called and asked if they would send me a couple of pads. The answer was something like, "Sorry. We can't send you new pads, but we will send you a replacement REFURBISHED scanner." I chose not to exchange scanners. But will exchange sources when it comes time for a new scanner.

Epson Perfection 2450 scanner not working with Mavericks

My Epson Perfection 2450 scanner stopped working when I upgraded to Mavericks, it is not recognizing the scanner. Tried restarting, using a different USB cable, a different USB port, etc...with no luck. The issue is that my computer no longer seems to recognize that I plugged it in. Tried it with Image Capture, Photoshop, Preview and even the old Epson software.
I tried downloading the Epson Scan Patch for Mavericks released on Oct 31, 2013. That did not help either.
I'm on a MacBook Pro running Mavericks version 10.9.3.
Love this scanner and don't want to have to buy another. Any help to get my Mac to recognize it would be greatly appreciated.

Syd,
My wife's iMac with 10.6.6 stopped working with her Epson 2480 Photo scanner. Get the error message "SCANNER reported an error. An error has occurred during scanning" I am trying to use it from the Image Capture App or from the print/fax option in Settings which opens Image Capture. I ran the uninstall program and then reinstalled the ICA 13969 .dmg but get the same error. Not sure what else I can do.

EPSON Workforce 310 "scanner reported an error" when using document feeder

I'm having trouble using my EPSON Workforce 310 printer/scanner with my new MacBook Pro (late 2012, 2.5 GHz i5, OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2).
Using the flatbed I can scan without a problem. But when I try to use the document feeder, I get the following error right after I click Scan and before the scanner has done anything (at least I don't hear anything moving inside the EPSON):
Scanner reported an error
An error occured during scanning
The EPSON's display doesn't show any error or special message.
This is repeated whether I use Image Capture, Preview's Import from Scanner, or the printer's native app (PrinterProxy, the one that shows up in the doc whenever the printer is printing or scanning).
I have no problem doing the scanning from my old iMac (2006, 2GHz Core Duo, Snow Leopard). After scanning to the MacBook fails I can walk over to the iMac and scan from there without problem and without resetting anything on the EPSON.
The EPSON is connected the home network via ethernet to a Time Capsule. Both computers are connected to the network via WiFi.

No. PowerPC apps will not run on Mac OS X Lion. There is no way to get around it.

Upgraded to CS5 running Yosemite (mac os 10.10), upgraded scanner Epson Perfection Photo 700, click on "import" and CS5 is not showing scanner dlick on "import" in photoshop

upgraded to CS5 running Yosemite (mac os 10.10), upgraded scanner Epson Perfection Photo 700 software--when i click on "import" CS5 is not showing scanner--what do i have to do to get it to recognize scanner?

Hi Gene,
Persistence pays off: so initially, CS5 was not recognizing my Epson Perfection Photo V700. I reloaded the Epson software twice and using the mac menu for printers and scanners tried to get it to operate. no dice. Finally, on the third try, I went to Finder to look under applications software, found the epson software and clicked on that, and finally got the Epson scan window to open. So now, even tho i can't open it from inside CS5, i can still get the image into CS5 easily by clicking on "open" and going to finder. (Still good to know about Vuescan tho.)
Aloha,
Temple

OS 10.4.4 + Photoshop Elements 2.0 + Epson Perfection 3200 Photo Scanner

i have an epson perfection 3200 photo scanner which had worked fine importing into photoshop elements 2.0 when i had an imac g3, but i cannot get it to work on my new machine, a powerbook g4 using 10.4.4. epson said it should work (i downloaded the most recent driver) but adobe said that 10.4.4 does not support photoshop elements 2.0 or 3.0. i downloaded 3.0 (they have a month trial) and it acknowledged my scanner for a second but then repeated the error message.
any thoughts?
thanks.
powerbook g4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Further to Barbara's suggestions, have you tried uninstalling your scanner and then disconnecting it physically from your PB. Then reinstall the scanner software and any updated drivers with the scanner still disconnected. Then reconnect the USB to the scanner and see whether you have better success. Epson scanners can be fussy (shy?) about being recognised, and I used these steps when I "lost" my Epson 3170 when moving to 10.3.x.
Barbara is absolutely right about PS Elements 2 and 10.4.4 - I'm also using it regularly with no problems. Since you got it to work with your previous computer and OS, you can also get it to work with your new PB and 10.4.4 - it just may need a little coaxing...

My Epson Perfection V500 photo scanner stopped working when I upgraded to Yosemite. The only scanner available is my Epson All-in-One.

I installed the new Yosemite operating system even though I was afraid something bad would happen. Well. it did. I can no longer scan photos using my photo scanner. I have updated all the drivers and it is still not working. I have an Epson Perfection V500 photo scanner, as well as an Epson WorkForce 845 all-in-one scanner, printer, copier. The 845 is on the network. The V500 is connected to my computer. For some reason, I keep getting the error that my V500 is not connected and when I try to add it, my mac does not find it. I know it is there. It was working before I upgraded. Help

You may have already done so, but if not...
Try a different USB cable.
Reboot your computer
Launch Disk Utility (in the Utilities folder) and Repair Disk Permission
in the left pane, click once on the name of your hard disk
in the right pane, click on the First Aid tab near the top
under the blank window, click the button "Repair Disk Permissions."
Afterward, click the "verify disk" button and it will check your hard disk.
Now, try your scanner...
