Microtek 8700 scanner and 10.5.8

Hi, After updating to 10.5.8 a while ago my scanner software, Scanwizard 7.21.3 still works but when saving a scan the file naming is reduced to only 1 character. This is of course highly annoying. I've reinstalled Scanwizard but the problem remains. On the Microtek site I read it could be a solution to try Scanwizard 7.20 which does not support the 8700. Are there people around here who can confirm this is a solution that works? Microteck is known for having very poor service that's why I'm asking around here.

try looking into VueScan scanner software. The website is hamrick.com. Somewhere on there they have a list of supported scanners. If yours is listed on the supported scanner list, I'd buy it. The "professional" license which I think boils down to free updates forever is a bit pricey at $80 or thereabouts, but I have been using VueScan with a Umax Astra 6400 scanner since early 2002 and have never had any issues or problems with it. I'm pretty sure that you can download it as trialware to drive test it first.

  • Does anyone know of a good A3 photo scanner compatable with OS 10.8 mountain lion? I need it to scan watercolour artwork. I was interested in Microtek scanmaker 9800XL and also Epson Expression 10000 but neither are compatible. Thanks :-)

    How full is the hard drive that you are trying to save to? Not that it should matter, but have you tried scanning another document?
    Is the scanner plugged directly into the Mac? Try it that way.
    Disconnect all peripherals except keyboard, monitor, mouse and scanner and see if the problem goes away.

  • How do a scan a file from my scanner and make it a PDF. . . . I do not see this choice in the Adobe program?

    How do a scan a file from my scanner and make it a PDF. . . . I do not see this choice in the Adobe program?
    In the past I would simply place a copy of the document on my scanner, then selected create PDF from scanner.  However, there is now no create PDF from scanner alternative, option or choice.  The only option available is selected file to convert to PDF.  what am I to do?

    That would have been a function of your scanning software. Adobe Reader is only used to view the pdf that your scanning software created.

  • How can i use an barcode scanner and a keyboard at the same time on Ipad

    HI I am looking to find a way to use a barcode scanner and the on screen key bard at the same time, so far i cant seem to find a way to do it.
    Does any one know how this can be done.
    thanks

    It is possible, I use multiple versions, however Firefox official policy is that you use firefox3.6 or 5 ; not firefox 4 which is not secure and not supported.
    The easiest solution may be to use firefox portable http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/localization#legacy36 although firefox 3.6 will itself not be supported for much longer.

  • I can't get my iphone 5s to transfer pictures to my computer, windows xp, i keep getting a no pictures found result on everything I have tried.  Windows Live Photo Gallery, Scanner and Camera Wizard, and just by opening up my Computer. Advice anyone?

    I can't open up anything for my iPhone 5s but my wife's regular iPhone 5 works fine.  Nothing shows up when I open up My Computer and double click the Apple iPhone icon.  My iPhone keeps asking if I trust this computer.  I keep clicking trust.  I have no updates pending on my iPhone.  I have tried the Scanner and Camera Wizard and also Windows Live Photo Gallery.  Can anyone help me with this issue?  Is this happening to anyone else?  Thanks in advance.

    Do you have the latest version of iTunes on the computer? v11.1.4. If you are having issues with Camera and Scanner wizard, it is possible the USB driver for the phone is not fully loaded. You might try resetting the phone and then trying again with the photos.
    Also, Microsoft has announced that on April 8, 2014 it will cease all support for XP, I would seriously be looking for a new device soon. This lack of support will cause a myriad of issues in the near future with newer products.
    If the reset does not work, you can look at removing and resinstalling iTunes and then plugging the phone back in. This should download the latest drivers. See this support document and follow the instructions exactly for removing and reinstalling iTunes. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925

    I have an HP Printer/scanner, and since upgrading to Mountain Lion I can no longer scan on my HP.  HP tells me that I can get an upgrade app from 'Apple Software Upgrade' .  Does anyone know how to do this?

    HP couldn't find its own apps with both hands and a flashlight.
    As of Lion all scanning functions are incorporated natively in OS X. You can scan three ways:
    Use Preview: File > Import from scanner
    Use Image Capture
    (Preview and Image Capture are both in your Applications folder.)
    System Preferences > Print & Scan. Select your HP and use the Scan tab.
    If you have HP's "Image Zone" software installed, you no longer need it and it no longer works anyway.

  • IPhone not downloading photos via Scanner and Camera Wizard?

    I have an iPhone 3GS with iOS4.2, which has all been going fine (except for the standard alarms not working, reception problems, etc.) and I've been trying to get 2500+ photos off my phone for some time. Ordinarily, I simply open the scanner and camera wizard and save all my photos to an external hard drive, but now when I open the wizard thumbnails for only 39 photos show up, with the rest as red boxes with crosses that say downloading. I have left my phone for up to an hour and none of the photos download.
    The last time I ran the wizard I had roughly 2000 photos on my iPhone and there were about 20 photos that did not appear, so I just downloaded everything else. I have tried to retrieve my photos (and failed) using iPhone Explorer and Phone Disk, and both only showed the 39 photos that had 'downloaded'. I don't know if it's a phone fault, or software fault (I'm currently running Windows XP) but it is very annoying.
    My iPhone does appear in My Computer as a camera, but not files are in the folder. I've also tried other 'home remedies' such as taking a photo whilst it is connected and then the files appear for some people, no such luck for me. The amount of problems I've had with it is frustrating. As much as I love my iPhone, the fact that such simple tasks end up taking a hundred times longer than they should is making me consider if the cons are really worth the pros.
    I'm assuming that I'm not alone with this problem, but has anyone else been able to sort it out?

    I had the same problem. However I fixed it by replacing the Apple USB cable. The only thing that doesn't work correctly now is that Picasa 2 opens and imports the photos into Picasa 3. I will continue to use the program as it is but it is a little confusing and I would like to know what is happening.

  • I have Photoshop Elements 9 on an iMac with OS 10.6.8. I bought a new printer/scanner and the program will not import the new scanner to replace the old one. How do I do this?

    I have Photoshop Elements 9 on an iMac with OS 10.6.8. I bought a new printer/scanner and the program will not import the new scanner to replace the old one. How do I do this?

    Thank you for your suggestions. I downloaded a more recent version of Twain, but this didn't help. I also tried closing and opening Photo Shop and restarting my computer without success. Reinstalling Photo Shop sounds like a very promising solution, but I'm  not sure I will do it. In the meantime I can scan items using a printer program. These scans open in Photo Shop. It is an extra step.

  • How do i download a picture from my scanner and put it on photoshop thank you

    how do i download a picture from my scanner and put it on photoshop thank you

    You don't "download" anything, and you don't put anything "on Photoshop".
    You save your image in your scanning application using whatever file format supported by Photoshop you want (PSD, TIFF, PNG, JPEG, etc.), and save it in whatever folder on your computer you want.
    Then you use Photoshop to open your image file wherever you put it.

  • ARD Client Doesn't Show When Using Scanner and Network Range

    All-
    When I use the Scanner in ARD3 to scan a remote Network Range over the internet, the ARD client that I KNOW EXISTS in that same IP range DOES NOT show up (other ARD clients that I'm not interested in do show up, but not the specific ARD client I need to observe/control).
    If I then call the user at the remote ARD client on the telephone, and have them give me their IP address (using www.whatismyip.com, for example), I can use the Scanner in ARD3 to "find" the ARD client and add it to my All Computers list. Process: change the popup box to read "Network Address" instead of "Network Range" and set the IP address field to the address provided by the user.
    Why doesn't the remote ARD client show up when I scan for it using a Network Range in ARD3? Obviously, I don't want to have to call up each user every time I need to perform maintenance/control a client to get their (dynamic) IP address.
    I could use dynamic DNS, but that's overkill. If I know (from experience) that my ARD clients are in IP ranges X, Y, and Z, then I SHOULD be able to simply scan for them (or so I thought).
    Any help appreceated.

    Updated to ARD3.1 (admin and clients), but that did not solve the issue.
    Let me try to restate the problem:
    The ARD client is out of state/across the country (i.e., different sub-net) using a dynamically assigned IP adddress. I can (for now) connect to that ARD client successfully, and perform all ARD functions (that I've tried so far) becasue I know (for now) that client's IP address (I called and spoke with the user who used www.whatismyip.com to give me their IP address). So what's the problem, you ask?
    Some time in the future, that same ARD client will have a new, dynamically assigned IP address. I'd like to be able to connect to that client without having to call on the telephone and ask the user what IP address they have been assigned now.
    My thinking was that I could make a pretty good guess at their IP address (based on their old IP address, and the way Cable and Telco ISPs allocate/lease IP addresses). For example, if their current dynamic IP address is 999.888.777.45, I could guess that a subsequent dynamically assigned IP address would be in the range 999.888.777.2 to 999.888.777.255. With ARD, I could simply scan that range of network addresses using the Scanner and quickly find the ARD client I want.
    I tried to do just that, and the ARD scanner did not find my client when I scanned the network range that the ARD client was actually in. It showed other ARD clients (that I do not administer, own, or want to hack into), but not the one I do want to observe/control/maintain (and have a legal right to). Somewhat paradoxically, when I used the Scanner to find the same ARD client by specific IP address, there was no problem.
    Why doesn't the ARD Scanner "see" the ARD client when scanning the network range?

  • Symbol mc9090 scanner and SAP loosing connection

    I have some symbol scanner mc9090 and I have telnet connection to server and sapconsole. In every 2-3 minutes i lost connection and i must using 'warm boot' on the scanner. I don't know about reason...Maybe You knows??
    please help me...i try some configuration on the scanner and it's not working. When I connect to the telent server from PC, this problem doesn't exists. What can I do??
    Henryk

    Hi Henryk?  I'm not familiar with this device.  Does this happen when standing in one place or when moving around.  Does it always happen every 2-3 minutes?  You may want to check the signal strength from the access point.  Does it always happen on every device that you try?  Try more than one device, if you haven't done so already. 
    If this is not your problem, the next place to look would be the server itself.  Does it have enough memory to handle all of the connections, assuming that your server is providing multiple concurrent sessions.
    What telnet are you using?  Geogia Softworks?
