New printer set as default. Photoshop will not recognise it. Help??

I recently purchased and installed a new epson printer to replace an older version.
the new printer was made default, and the old one removed.
Photoshop Elements 9 does not find the new printer and searches unsuccesfully
for the old one.
Tthe printer works perfectly for all other applications.
I am perplexed amd frustrated.
Has anyone had the same problem? If so how did you solve it?
Thank you for any solution

Hi Jeff, I have found a way round the problem by using Epson scan.
Thank you for your help
Regards
Michael

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.

I have an existing iPod account and now have a new nano but my existing account will not recognise the nano. How can I get this to recognise my new device?

I have an existing account with an iPod classic device. I now have a new nano and want to add this as a secondary device. However when I connect this my account will not recognise the new device. How do I resolve this?

I have 4 iPods all utilizing iTunes on the same computer. If you open iTunes and THEN connect the new nano, it should automatically recognize it. Does it give you an error message?

Since changing over to a new BT hub my iPad mini will not recognise an Epson XP printer although this worked fine with Sky. Printer and iPad set up for new hub and independently recognise hub

Since changing over to a new BT home hub, my iPad mini does not recognise an Epson XP 305 air printer although system worked well on previous Sky hub. Both printer and iPad set up and recognise hub independently. Has anyone come across this problem?

New Photosmart Plus B209 a-m Will not connect wirelessly **HELP**

I just purchased this printer and i have tried every option I can think of and find online to get this printer to connect to my netgear router, I had a wireless canon printer that i had for a while that quit so i went and bought this printer and now it wont connect i've never had this much trouble my canon connected right away. I changed my router settings and hit my WPS button for this printer and still nothing. When i click on the wireless option on the touchscreen menu on the printer it just says "No connection found" and the option on the solution center for USB to Wireless just runs and runs for hours. Any ideas? Thanks a bunch in advance!!

Hi- Cliff here.
I have the exact same printer. After I installed the software from the CD that came with the printer, I used the Wireless setup tab to configure my connection. You need to know about your network. Things like WEP, and most importantly- select the shared key if you use a 64 bit or 128 bit encryption. Mine would not work until I fixed the setup on the printer side of the wireless configuration. Type in your key (or passphrase) that's the same one you'd use on your laptop or desktop that is on the wireless network. Unless you have to- leave the settings to automatic on discovery of the IP address and DNS servers. You usually don't have to mess around with those on a home network. Make sure the printer is connected to the computer that you've installed the HP software on- with the USB cable when you start this process so the software can communicate with the printer. I used the "wizard" and after about 6 or 8 steps, I was able to remove the USB cable and put the printer downstairs. Then I simply used the Windows Vista "Add Device" for a printer on my network and Wahoo!!
I hope that helps. If not, write back to me and we can do a more detailed step by step overview.
I must say, once you get it all set up- it's a great printer and VERY inexpensive to operate. Ink is cheap and this printer is very fast over my network. I use my ACER Netbook all over the house and print from the garage and the front yard and the living room and even inside my RV!!
We will get it working.... Together....you are not alone in this.

Old CS2 Photoshop & Bridge not recognising files

My old CS2 version of Bridge and Photoshop will not recognise files from the new(ish) camera I just bought, a Canon EOS5D Mk II.
It doesn't show a preview image in Bridge and when you click to open it, it just says "Could not complete the request because it is not the right kind of document".
I can get the Canon software to convert a RAW to TIFF and open it but I want to use the batch processing and selection facilitites of Bridge.
Any ideas how I can get round this problem?
Many thanks.

This is a very old discussion but in short, each new camera has its own unique Raw code. Adobe offers free upgrades for ACR (Adobe Camera Raw needed to convert the Raw data to an actual image) several times a year but only for their latest version of Photoshop (in this case PS6 and PSCC)
Here is a list of camera's with compatible versions of ACR:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
And the versions of PS with the ACR versions so you can see the minimum required version you need to match your new camera:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
For your 5D II this means at least ACR version 5.2 that comes with CS4
You can either use the free Adobe DNG converter to first convert your files to DNG and then handle them in CS2 but you can also try to upgrade and match the technology of the camera with your software.
Besides that, shooting Raw and batch process to tiff without first changes the settings of the Raw file to your custom wishes is sheer pointless. You don't profit from Raw unless you make the effort to first develop the files in ACR to your custom wishes (or use Canon Software that came with your camera which to my opinion is very clumsy and very very slow / unproductive) and then start batch process for further development in PS or whatever.

How can i order a new printer head for my photoshop 7250e Is there a number i can ring to speak to someone or email address i can use or a web page where i can order one
or a list of agents i can use to get it from
Finding simple information seems impossible, no where does it mention spares or replacements

Hello NigelH1,
The Print Head for the Photosmart 7250 is not available outside HP.
Please call HP Tech Support for further assistance.
If you are in US , the toll free # is 1-800-474-6836 .
If you are not in US , then log on to www.hp.com , at bottom-left corner there is a world map icon, click on it and then select the region you belong to, which would then provide support options for you for that region.

Photoshop will not open some of my files

I recently had a hard drive crash. I sent it to a recovery company and they returned my files on a new hard drive. Many of the images were recovered but some show up as CR2 files or psd files that photoshop will not open. The message says that this is a file format that PS does not recognize. These files seem to be no different from my other CR2 files and psd. files but the thumbnails don't show up in Bridge and PS will not open them. Can anyone tell me how to get these files to open?

I thought this following suggestion to use GIMP to open stubborn PSD files was brilliant:

you may also want to try using the DNG converter with your CR2 files:

it's worth a try, but it's a long shot.

My hp 100 mobile printer will only print one page then quits. will not print all of the pages.

my hp 100 mobile printer will only print one page then quits. will not print all of the pages. i have rebooted, new install, and reset. still the same thing. when i look it shows that it is printing but there is nothing happing. i use this with my lap top.

Hello colt1,
Are you using Bluetooth or USB cable to connect to the printer? Did you install from the disc, or from the online program? When it sits there and doesn't print, does it eventually give error messages, lights flashing, etc.?
Thanks,

Photoshop will not open unless as Admin but that causes other problems

Hi all,
There are two problems:
1. If I don't run photoshop as an administrator
2. If I run photoshop as an administrator.
1. If I don't run as administrator, Photoshop will NOT open. I can't even open .psd by double clicking them. Can't open from the installed directory, can't open from shortcuts. It only works if I right click run as admin or set properties to run as admin.
I am the only user for the system, and I have even taken ownership of all files. Yet, it still requires me to run as admin. I am running CS5 with windows 7 64bit.
2. If I run as admin I cannot drag or drop files into PS. As detailed in here - http://forums.adobe.com/message/3640635. I can open files manually through file menu, but dragging and dropping is disabled (shows a circle with a slash when i drag into PS). Their solution in the forum was to remove running as admin. But if I do that, I get problem 1.
Any ideas?
Jason

Option 1: Clearly something went wrong when installing Photoshop, or you have changed permissions on your system for some part(s) Photoshop needs to access. Verify, for example, that you have Full Control access to the root of the hard drive you have identified as scratch. A reinstall of Photoshop might correct this.
Option 2: Windows UAC is likely the culprit here. Some folks choose to turn off UAC completely, which means you'll be running everything as Administrator all the time, but that should not be done without FULLY understanding what UAC does for you and what additional measures you'll take to ensure your system doesn't get infected with malware.

Photoshop will not launch

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard. I installed Creative Suite 4 Design Standard. Ilustrator and InDesign run well, but Photoshop will not launch. Do I need to uninstall the entire suite and reinstall it again, or can I just reinstall Photoshop?

I downloaded updates from your website and Photoshop is now running.

CS4 works just fine on Snow Leopard (even CS3). Lion has some bugs that
cause problems with older versions. And we need to know more about why you
can't launch Photoshop. What error message do you get?
