No Twain-compliant device installed

Hi, I hope someone can please help. Yesterday I was using my multi-function Color Laser Jet CM1312nfi MFP printer to scan a couple of pages. The scan went through fine with no problem as have countless others before. No changes were made to the system and I am the only one who uses the computer and printer.About 45 minutes after the last scan I went to scan another page when I got this message: "No Twain-compliant device installed, please install one and try again". The scanner refused to work. I tried rebooting the computer and turning the printer on and off to no avail. I thought maybe there was a problem with the machine itself or a loose cable or connection but the machine still prints documents. I tried using the HP Print and Scan Doctor and that doesn't work. It guided me to several drivers. I downloaded and tried one called "CM1312series-win7-full-solution-AM-EMEA1-v5.1". The installation won't fully go through and reverses itself. The same thing happens when I try reinstalling the original software I used to use the scanner a few years back. Can anyone help? Thank you

Thanks, I finally resolved the issue the following day after several frustrating hours. I would uninstall the driver software, disconnect the USB cable and restart the computer. After the restart, I would try one of the previously mentioned options. At a certain point, the installation process would ask me to reconnect the USB cable and then click the "OK" or "Continue" button in the installion dialog box. However, I noticed that as soon as I connected the USB cable but before I could click the button, Windows would automatically start installing a driver. It would always do the same thing. It would install 6 or 7 components, 4 or 5 would successfully install regarding printing. A separate status dialog box would pop up showing these parts installed. A green check mark would appear next to the print functions. However, 2 components dealing with scanning would not successfully install. These components would get a red X next to them. Meanwhile, I would have clicked the "OK" or "Continue" button in the installion dialog box. After a few minutes, the installation would abort itself and I would end up having to uninstall the driver and reboot all over again. It finally dawned on me that 2 separate installations were going on at the same time. What finally resolved the problem was after uninstalling the driver and restarting yet again, I started the original installation application process but when I was prompted to connect the USB cable, I first disconnected the computer from the internet and then connected the USB cable. Before I could click the "Continue" button, I noticed the separate installation process was beginning again. I immediately clicked the X in that dialog box to stop that installation. I then clicked "Continue" on the desired installation dialog box and it finally successsfully installed. Once it installed, I reconnected the computer to the internet and the scanner now worked. Thank you for your advice anyway.

    I was trying to scan using the LaserJet Scan.  However, I have received a message "There is no TWAIN-compliant device installed.  Please install one and try again".  I have searched on google but I was unable to find one.  Please also note that I was also trying to uninstall the driver, but I was unable to do so because it stated that one or more of the printers listed above have pending print jobs.  Printers with pending jobs cannot be removed until the jobs are completed.

  • Is Iphoto Twain compliant? Or must I buy another program before installing a CyberView X scanner?

    I want to install a CyberView X-SF scanner to convert my photographic slides to digital format.  The product manual says I must install Twain compliant software before installing the scanner driver CD.  Is iPhoto or Mavericks Twain compliant, or do I need to upgrade to Aperture or another more powerful program?

    As neither iPhoto nor Aperture have any ability to scan images it doesn't matter. You can with whatever software comes with the scanner, or Image Capture, or any other 3rd party app, then import the scans to iPhoto or Aperture.
    One tip: scan to RGB, it's what cameras shoot and what these apps support.

  • Epson V30 scanner TWAIN compliant- Macbook Pro running OS X 10.7Lion

    I bought a new Epson V30 scanner to connect to my Macbook Pro running Lion, however when I try to scan in a check to my bank it says it can't find the driver for the scanner and to use one that is TWAIN compliant?  The software that came with the scanner said to go to website for Epson and not use the disk if you had Lion so I did that, the scanner installed, but I'm guessing the OCR is what is missing since it will scan everything else.  There is no software update from Apple for this, anybody have any suggestions on how to fix this?

    I have an Epson V33 scanner. The only thing that worked for me was to buy the extremely good VueScan software. The Mac internal stuff was awful for this scanner.

  • Help Please!! no audio output device installed?

    Hi. I have a satellite A215-S4757 last night I installed some windows updats  went to bed because it was going to take awhile. When I got it had finished and was in sleep mode. When I turned it on I noticed the sound was on mute. Or I thought it was. When I attempted to turn the sound on I recieved the message "No audio output device installed". I updated BIOs 2.30 but that didnt work. If anyone could help me out I would greatly appreciate it!
    Thanks

    Try this!  Looks like you have Realtek audio.  I was having the same problem until I installed the updated Realtek driver directly from Realtek site.
    As many users have posted, I was having this problem with my Satellite L505-S5990. I tried most of the suggestions I could find here and on the 'net to no avail. I was surprised to see that this problem affected many laptop brands - even as far back as Windows XP!!
    Last week I think I finally found the answer (or at least Realtek did). My laptop has Realtek HD audio, and the drivers that came with laptop seemed to be the culprit. I checked the Realtek site last week, and they have an updated driver, dated 3/30/2010, for Windows 7 as well as other versions of Windows. It is Version 2.46.
    I downloaded and installed these drivers, switched back to going into sleep mode rather than hibernate and - so far - the computer wakes from sleep with sound intact!!!
    Hopefully these drivers will work for others.

  • New MacBook Pro Unibody Jun 2011 - No Audio Device / No Output Device Installed. Please Help.

    Dear All,
    I have installed OSX Lion on the 20th July 2011 and the problem started with the audio device installed. Itunes wont even play and iDVD and you tube would work without audio. I have tried everything from system diagnostic re-booting back to original snow leopard on 10.6.7 including taking it for service. The audio works intermittently when I re-start my MacBook but eventually disappears back to square one. Until restarted again.
    I am still under my 90 days from purchase date and the problem is I am no longer in London where I originally purchased the MacBook from - I moved to Delhi, India with my family and they don't have geniuses here only local service/ technicians who already tried fixing the problem.
    Very disappointed after spending nearly £1,600.00 for this.
    I don't want to go back to the local service centre for them to restart my MacBook to prove audio device is working.
    Is there any other option for me like refund or replacement?
    Many Thanks
    Shah

    Dear Lex,
    Thank you for your advice above.
    I have updated latest iTunes 10.4.1(10) 64 bit.
    I have updated latest OSX Lion: 10.7.1 Build 11B26
    Still the problem occurs. When laptop restarts the sound stays for 5-10 min before shutting down intermittently. In iTunes the music will not even run - other applications such as YouTube - it will run but no sound.
    I have tried everything now and I am certain it must be a software connected issue I am experiencing only.
    Please can you help.
    Many Thanks

  • No audio device installed (Big iss

    Hello all,?I have Vista Ultimate and am using an Audixy 4. After installing the new drivers today (SBAXVSD_PCDRV_LB_2_2_0002) I lost my sound. At the device manager i see that "This device is working properly."?When I go to Controle panel/Sound I see the device but I almost none of the commands work (Disable, Test, Configure) only the Properties work but there I cannot do anything useful. When I right click on the Sound icon at the bottom right of the screen and go to Open Volume Mixer, it says "No audio device installed"?Yersterday I also had this issue and reinstalled Vista with a fresh install which fixed the problem. Today I had the same thing again and decided to use my onboard sound card (RealTek, 623_Vista_APO), and nothing changed! I am still getting the same errors as with the Audixy 4. Is there any sollution to this Vista bug? :angry:?Thanks for reading

    I am not sure why anyone is not replying with a resolution but I am having a similar problem. I am having a computer custom built and the Technician building it claims that Windows Vista will not recognize both the Soundblaster Xi Fi Extreme Music sound card and the MSI 8800GTX 768MB video card that I have chosen for the configuration. This is due to some conflict. The Technician claims the problem is the sound card and Creative needs to update drivers before this configuration can be done. Is this true? Can anyone explain why? I know Creative has Windows Vista drivers but apparently for this situation it does not resolve the conflict.

    Hi, I was able to reformat my iPod and that worked. I read it on one of the threads and I am copy pasting the method below:
    I opened the "My Computer" window and right-clicked on my ipod, and then selected "Format". I select "Yes" to format since I don't have anything on the nano to delete anymore.
    I then Eject my nano from the computer and did a restart while the nano is disconnected from the computer.
    Once Windows finish loading I reconnect the USB to the nano(back of computer) which automatically pulls up iTune. It asked me to name the new ipod detected and created a playlist for that specific ipod name.

  • "No Audio Device Installed" in Windows Vista.

    Back in september 2011 I mysteriously lost my audio. I have a red X over my speaker icon in my system tray. When I put the cursor over the speaker icon I get this message "No Audio Device Installed". I went to the HP Customer web page and found the audio driver: Realtek High Definition Audio Version 6.0.1.5548 (sp37324.exe). I downloaded the program and saved it to my download folder. I put a short cut to it on my desktop. The only way I can get sound is whenever I turn on my computer I right click the desktop short cut and run as Administrator and install the program. My sound comes on. It works as long as I keep the computer on. Whenever I restart the computer I'm back to the red X over the speaker icon.
    Now, Windows Update has sent me (on 3 occassions the last couple of weeks) an "optional update"...the Realtek High Definition Audio. Each time I download it and install it and do a restart,but I get the same red X over the speaker icon. It's Ground Hog Day!
    My question: Is it safe to uninstall the Realtek High Definition Audio driver and reinstall the sp37324.exe without totally sending my audio into a Black Hole? BTW,I don't have a recovery disk.
    I hope someone on this forum can help me. I've exhausted all avenues.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,

       It should be under Sound ...
       Right click it & Uninstall

  • HP Officejet 8500 Pro A909n-Installed Win 8.1- tried HP Sol Ctr&says "device install not complete"

    I was shocked when I was trying to do my reports yesterday, after upgrading to Win 8.1 and finding the driver for my OJ 8500 WILL NOT WORK in printing off ADOBE which lead to me trying to open the HP Solution Center and it just pops up a box that says HP Solution Center cannot run because device install NOT COMPLETE. I am losing time and money trying to figure out what I THOUGHT WAS SURE to be ADDRESSED BY HP. I am upgrading the entire office in another state....is this going to be an ongoing issue? Is there a better printer solution which keeps up with the operating systems? Please help.

    Hi Mtnman,
    I understand you're having issues with the Solution Center program after upgrading to Windows 8.1. I'm sorry to hear you're having issues but I will do my best to help.
    I'd like you to uninstall your HP printer software (if you have an HP computer, make sure you are only removing HP printer software from the computer) and once it's been completely removed we will want to attempt to reinstall. To reinstall the software I'd like you to download and run the HP Printer Install Wizard to get the software downloaded and reinstalled.
    Hope this helps, have a great day!

  • Bought a tablet on device installment plan, can no longer bill equipment to account

    I recently purchased an iPad mini and bought it on the device installment plan. Then found out that I can no longer bill equipment purchases to my account. I have a spotless payment history. I was planning on buying the iPhone 5 this week and billing it to the account so I could pay for it in January on the December bill (which would be due Jan 17 as my billing cycle closes on the 22nd). I billed an OtterBox (which I got for my iPhone 5, which I am keeping) and I billed an upgraded MiFi device (which I cancelled the online order and VZW put in a ticket to FedEx to have the shipment intercepted and returned to VZW). According to the tracking, VZW received the shipment on Nov 23rd) but VZW says that it has not been scanned in yet as of Nov 27th. I am trying to dispute the charge but have been told that it would be credited when it is scanned in. I don't know what barcode is scanned but FedEX assigned a new tracking number to return the shipment and VZW says that is unusual so I am hoping that they are not relying on the tracking barcode.
    I am wondering if the device installment plan disqualifies a customer for billing equipment purchases to the account.

        Iowacowboy, thanks for posting. An account cannot exceed $1000 combined bill to account and Device Installment Plan balance. (Bill to account maximum is $400 per account, per month for consumer lines). I hope this helps.^SP

  • No Audio Devices Installed

    I was listening to music today when all the computer no longer played with the headphones. I would put different headphones in the jack and it would only play on the computer speakers. Then the computer froze and I had to reboot it. Now under the sound file it says there are no audio devices installed. What should I do?
    Any help would be great!

    HI,
    EHanrehan, you have a loptop DV6700 hece please post in the Laptop section.
    Hi,
    WError, if you are getting Error Code - 10, then it represents that the drivers are not installed correctly.
    In order to resolve the issue, unintsall the Realtek Realtek High Definition Audio Driver from Program and Features. Restart the PC and then install the drivers from Recovery Manager. You can also download the driver sp26860.exe and then update with sp37324.exe and your issue will be resolved.
    Good Luck

  • No audio devices installed Envy dv6

    I recently installed Windows 8.1, and now no sound comes out of my speakers.  I tried updating and reinstalling the audio driver but it still says that there are no audio devices installed. I've tried following the directions on a few forums and none have seemed to work.

    You can try few more steps..
    i) Completely uninstall IDT first from control panel and then download it  from here 
        Temporily disable the anti-virus while re-installing the IDT.
    ii) Run HP Support Assitant and check if any HP updates are pending..like BIOS Update..
    Recently i came across a similar issue where the sound disappered after a adobe flash update also. So you an try uninstall/reinstall flash and check also.
    Let me know what happens..
    Also if nothing works then the last step would be to perform a recovery (factory reset). If problem continues after recovery also the it has to be a hardware issue..
    Note:
    If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem
    Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.
