Maverick won't let me use my Canon scanner anymore

After installing Maverick on my iMac my Canon scanner software will not work. I cannot add a scanner to my printer preferences or find an app that works. It seems a lot of items no longer work for ome reason.

I have a Canoscan 8800F. The version of Navigator EX 1.0 I have been using very successfully up to now just crashes as soon as I open it. I have tried downloading a new driver from the Canon website but it does not seem to go anywhere. If I try to use Image Capture it just opens up with no printers or scanner selected and no means to add them, just a blank page.

  • Mavericks won't let me use key repeat

    You know, where you type "o" then hold it down for "oooooooooooooo."  Mavericks won't let me have that usibility in any program - mail, docs, internet.  Can't figure out how to turn this function back on.
    I also lost the functionlity of swiping up with three fingers to go to the top of a page.  Crap, that was pretty handy.
    Can anyone help me get these functionalities back?
    Thanks,
    Patricia

    See pet3r's comment in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3190706
    If you want to force the key-repeat, and disable the "Press and Hold" for additional characters, here is the terminal command:
    defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false
    Log out and back in and key repeat should work for all keys. Checked in TextEdit, Safari, Pages, and Numbers.
    you can enable in specific apps using
    defaults write app plist ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool true
    where app plist is something like com.apple.textedit.
    Can't help with the finger-waving nonsense, since I only use a wired mouse w/o those capabilities.

  • I upgraded to 10.8.4 and now it won't let me use my Epson scanner, saying "power pc applications are no longer supported." How do I make it work?

    I upgraded to 10.8.4 and now I can' use my Epson scanner  I get a message saying, "ou can't open the application Epson Scan apps because Power PC applications are no longer supported." I also can't synch my old Palm Pilot for the same reason.
    How can I fix this?

    We need to sort out some facts here first:
    •  You cannot be running Mt. Lion on your iMac G5.  What Mac is it?  What is the Model Identifier listed in About This Mac; More Info; Hardware Overview
    •  What is the model of your Epson Scanner?
    •  Have you attempted to scan using Image Capture, located in your Applications folder?
    •  Your Palm Pilot software will only run in Snow Leopard; so depending upon which Mac you have, you will either have to:
    1)  partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it to "dual-boot" when you want to access you Palm software, or
    2)  install Snow Leopard Server (now available from Apple for $20 telephone orders USA & Canda only) into Parallels 8 to run your Palm software in Mt. Lion:

  • My iPhone 5 won't let me use my apps until I connect them with iTunes after downloading ios7. Solutions?

    My iPhone 5 won't let me use my apps until I connect them with iTunes after downloading ios7.  There's just a thing that pops up and says that in order to activate banners and push notifications I have to connect the app with iTunes. The thing won't go away no matter how many times I push ok, and it doesn't give me another option. Solutions?

    Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
    First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
    Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
    When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
    I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

  • When I use migration assistant it won't let me use my account name that I'm signed in with.  It requires me to select a different user name and then creates a separate account where my files live.  Why can't I select the user name and account name I have?

    I'm trying to migrate my music and pictures over to my new iMac.  When I use the migration assistant it connects to my PC fine but it won't let me use the account name and username that I have created as the admin.  It requires me to create a new user account - so then I have two separate accounts to log in to which i don't want.  How do I get it to let me use the current account that I have to move my files to?
    Thanks!

    Migration Assistant creates a new account and migrates all the information you have requested to that new account. There is no way around that. However once migrated you can move the data to the account you want to. Here are some instructions for doing so:
    Transferring files from one User Account to another.

  • I have an iPhone 5 and updated it to iOS7 but now I can't use iMessage or FaceTime as it says "waiting for activation" and won't let me use my phone number to do iMessage or FaceTime either

    Sorry. There's nothing anyone can do. The current version of the facebook app will not run on 4.2.1. The iPhone 3G won't run anything higher than 4.2.1. You're stuck.
    Maybe it's time to buy yourself a new iPod Touch.

  • I have an iMac running Mavericks would like to  connect/use my Canon CanonScan 8600F scanner or purchase another scanner

    I just recently upgraded my Intel iMac to Mavericks and can no longer use my Canon CanonScan 8600F scanner.  What can I do to enable this device with my iMac?  Or, should I consider purchasing another compatible scanner?

    I went to the site and at the bottom of the screen that shows my scanner there is nothing listed for any software as their system "sensed" that I had Mavericks installed.  I'll plan on calling their support line on Monday but, I'm not all that positive that there will be a good answer.  Thanks anyway . .

  • I just got my iPad and the iMessage was working and than all of a sudden it stopped and when I tired to log back in, it said I had a bad connection which I didn't. So it won't let me use my iMessage

    Check Settings>General>Date & Time>Set Automatically>On. Make sure that the time zone setting is also set correctly.
    If that didn't solve the problem, restart your iPad and try again. If that fails, reset your iPad and try again.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Er, Audition doesn't have a liquify tool. Dunno which CS6 app does, but that's the forum you should post on.

  • I have iwork on two computers, but my account doesn't show record of it for my being able to reinstall on the new computer.  Is there a time limit?  I tried airdrop, but it won't let me use it.

    I have iwork on two computers, but my account doesn't show record of it for my being able to reinstall on the new computer.  Is there a time limit?  I tried airdrop, but it won't let me use it.

    Sounds like you installed iWork from before there was the Mac App Store.
    If you installed it from a Family DVD you are entitled to install that on 5 computers and can do that from the DVD.
    If not then you need to purchase it from the M.A.S. and will be able to install it on any of your computers using the same Apple I.D. However Apple is promising a new version before Christmas so it may not be a good time to buy now.

  • Numbers won't let me use subscripts. Why not?

    Numbers won't let me use any of the Baseline commands (Superscript, Subscript, Raise, Lower). No matter what I try, these options are always grayed out, keyboard shortcuts not responding. It's like they've been disabled. What is going on?
    I'm using Mac OS X v10.6.7, Numbers '09 v2.0.5. I got this MacBook Pro around 7 August 2010.

    Microsoft Excel, you highlight the text in the edit line, and of course it doesn't show the after-effect in the edit line -- what I thought you meant. I thought you were saying that it simply wouldn't appear as subscripted in the edit line, analogous to Excel. I didn't realize you were saying the text actually had to be highlighted in the cell, instead of in the edit line. To not provide for both functions seems very shortsighted software design, especially when obviously competing with Microsoft Excel...
    The Excel behavior isn't relevant here.
    Numbers isn't trying to compete against Excel.
    It's targetting "normal beeings", not "professional numbers crunchers"

    Apple Human Interface Guidelines:
    Apply the 80 Percent Solution
    During the design process, if you discover problems with your product design, you might consider applying the 80 percent solution‚ that is, designing your software to meet the needs of at least 80 percent of your users. This type of design typically favors simpler, more elegant approaches to problems.
    If you try to design for the 20 percent of your target audience who are power users, your design may not be usable by the other 80 percent of users. Even though that smaller group of power users is likely to have good ideas for features, the majority of your user base may not think in the same way. Involving a broad range of users in your design process can help you find the 80 percent solution.

    In NumbersLand, every kind of style apply to text.
    What is in the edit line is not a text object. Its status is undefined.
    It may become a date, a currency amount, a formula, a piece of text…
    I never read questions from someone trying to apply Bold in the edit line.
    Often what is foolish is not the used application but the interface between the computer's keyboard and the chair sitting in front of it
    As far as I know, the value of the Apple quote prove that the way Apple design its products isn't really shortsighted.
