OT: Canon Canoscan Lide 60

Has anyone got a downer on this scanner?
I want a new flatbed scanner. This one is compact, draws all its power from the USB cable and can work on its side. Resolution etc. looks fine for my needs.
Just thought I'd check out here in case there are any gotchas. TIA

Colin,
I purchased a Canoscan D1250 U2F (similar to the current 4200F but only 1200 ppi) in March of 2003 and it has been rock solid across 2 platforms ever since. At the time my choice was between it and one of the early LIDE models getting rave reviews. I did not choose the LIDE because it did not have a film/slide capability and the family has a lot of history on 35 mm. If you don't need that I think you'll be pleased with your choice.

Getting Canon CanoScan Lide 20 to work with 10.4.10 and 10.4.11

When I upgraded to the latest version of Tiger 10.4.10 and .11 ... My Canon Lide 20 which had been working perfectly for years just stopped working. I tried to download the latest driver from canon but kept getting errors. After several different attempts I found this posting on version tracker did what it said and it worked!

For Macintosh OSX users (including intel Macintosh computers) who have problems installing Canon scanner software, including older models. Please try the following steps to successfully install your scanner driver software:
Short Fix:
1. Use the "Deldrv" program to remove previously unsuccessfully installed driver(s). The "Deldrv" uninstaller can be found on the Canon website at the bottom of the Canon scanner driver pop up window that you access to get the drivers for your scanner.
2. Use the "Find?" under the File menu (command-F) or use Spotlight (command spacebar) to find the folder "CFMSupport". Select this folder (don't open it), and use the 'Get info' command in the File menu (command-I) to open information about the Ownership and Permissions of the folder. Click on the arrow beside 'Ownership and Permissions' so it points downwards, then click on the arrow beside 'Details' so you can see the details. Click on the padlock icon so it is unlocked. Then set owner to your user name, set the Group to admin, and set access for all users to Read & Write.
3. Reinstall the CanoScan Toolbox first, then the scanner drivers from the Canon website or your CD, restart your computer."
Uninstalling I think made all the difference. I hadn't done that before. Thanks to Robert Loney for this. I was about to purchase VueScan which also worked... but he saved me $49 buckswhich is more than I paid for the Lide 20 5 years ago.
I also lost my external hard drivers when I upgraded to 10.4.10. never fixed that problem... just went and returned my Western digital Mybooks (both premium and pro additions) (I had been dealing with customer service and returning the ones they kept shipping me for months). I got a Maxtor 750 GB one from Circuit city and it has worked like a charm! I wonder if there was something I needed to uninstall to get that to work as well.
I hope this is helpful to everyone else out there.

To add to Ryan's posting, anyone in the UK/Europe may need to access the Canon US website (http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=DownloadDet ailTabAct&fcategoryid=351&modelid=6624) to obtain the latest version of the scangear driver 7.0.1.1X and Canoscan software 4.1.3.0. Judging by their file dates these versions appear to have been released in 2007. The Canon Europe site has the older version 7.0.1.0 of the driver.
The tips should may also apply to the LIDE 30 and N670 and other scanners which appear to use the same software.
On my system the permissions on the CFMsupport folder allowed update of the software without changes so you may also find that updating the drivers to these versions is sufficient, and you don't need to bother with the permissions changes.
I have experienced problems with the scan gear software not setting the folder to receive the images correctly. At one point in the scan process - after clicking the scan button - it offered an open file dialogue box rather than a choose folder dialogue. I found that if selected any file in the folder and clicked open the problem seemed to go away.

If anyone is also getting these errors or if someone on Canon tech support could rectify this, I would really appreciate it.

Re: Trouble with peripherals (CanoScan LIDE 30 Scanner & HP LaserJet 1020)

The Canon CanoScan LIDE 30 scanner didn't have any autodetection, so I want to the Canon Web site to look for drivers. I grabbed the drivers, packaged in a .dmg file, from Canon. Running the setup file, I was a bit perplexed what it wanted me to do, so I installed the drivers in the Applications directory and rebooted the system when prompted.
That did nothing - I still couldn't access the scanner. I tried a couple other places - root of the hard drive, /Library/Image Capture... nothing.
I'm at a complete loss here, and couldn't figure out how to do it.
And the printer.
I hooked up the HP LaserJet 1020 to the Mac. Nothing happened, so I went into the Print & Fax System Utility to set it up. The printer browser was able to detect it, but there was no listing for the HP LaserJet 101 in the driver selections. Hewlett Packard doesn't offer Mac drivers for the printer.
Anything I can do to get these two peripherals working?
Feel free to CC responses to [email protected]

The Canon CanoScan LIDE 30 scanner usually installs a file "N124u-buttonmanager" in your Login items (actually the standard install used to put the "buttonmanager" for both the LiDE 20 and LiDE 30 scanners, see this User Tip: kmosx2: Looking for devices matching vendor..).
Their more recent software is better behaved: I have an all in one, and there are no Login items, everything is installed in a "Canon Utilities" folder inside "/Applications".
So, if the software you downloaded includes a "buttonmanager", make sure you choose the right one (see the User Tip) and put it in your login items (System Preferences > Accounts).

CanoScan LiDE 60 scanner driver problems

I'm usually pretty good at troubleshooting software issues on my iMac, but this scanner problem has me absolutely stumped!!! My old Canon CanoScan LiDE 60 scanner stopped working the other day...out of the blue. I have been using the ScanGear software without a hitch, and now every time I open the program, I get a "Failed To Open Driver" message. I figured out that I obviously needed to upgrade my software and drivers. I did some research online and was told I needed to install the new CanoScan software and driver from the Canon website. This scanner model is technically not supported by Snow Leopard, but some people got it to work!! Well...I tried that, followed all instructions correctly, then restarted my Imac and replugged my scanner USB cord. I opened the ScanGear software again, but I still have the missing driver message!! I've been trying several little tricks to get it work, but still nothing. I'm at the point where I need to start from scratch and uninstall everything related to the scanner, but I'm not sure how to do that correctly either, removing all the orphaned data! Can someone please give me a step-by-step process what I need to do?

Guys, thanks for this. I've had similar problems but with your help and others solved both issues for the Toolbox and Driver (OS X10.6.8):
Make sure all previous drivers downloads etc are deleted, inc the DMG files etc and disconnect the scanner.
You can then download the latest Toolbox from the UK site [dated Feb 2011] (it doesn't require you to reboot, for some strange reason??). Then download the latest driver from the Australian site. You have to reboot then.
Everything seems to work fine. No preview as before unfrotunately but goes a treat. Hope that helps guys.

How to get Mavericks Printer/Scanner to recognize Canoscan Lide 500F

I have a Canon Canoscan Lide 500 F scanner that worked perfectly with OSX 10.7.5 but Mavericks says it isn't connected? How do you get Mavericks to recognize USB devices that are connected? How do I get this scanner working again?

Hi ..
According to Canon there are no drivers for youur printer/scanner for v10.9 Mavericks compatibility here.
But there is an alternative. You can scan using the pre installed Image Capture app located in your Applications folder.
Connect the scanner to your Mac whether Wi-Fi or USB.
Click the very small black box bottom left side of the Image Capture window.
You'll see this pop up menu: Connecting this (device) opens:
You can select a default app to scan (Image Capture) and select a folder from the Import To pop up menu on the right to save scanned files to.
If you need help with the Image Capture software, click Help from the Image Capture menu bar.

Multiple pdfs from canoscan lide 25

I can no longer make multiple pdf's using a canon canoscan lide 25. Is this due to a change of issue of adobe?

When I try to save a scanned page as a pdf the report 'Selected application is invalid' appears.
This change appeared at about the time of the upgrade to Reader XI.
However, if I make a scan a pdf attached to an email, it functions correctly.

How do you get canoscan lide 110 scanner to display in "file import" menu?

I have several older versions of Photoshop Elements running on various computers. In ALL of them, if you go to "File>Import" you see "Canoscan LIDE xx". when you choose it, there is a great scanning application that runs. On a newer computer, i had Photoshop CS5.5 installed. It only shows WIA under the import menu. The scanning software there is horrible. I tried installing the same scanner (lide 110) on an older computer running older photoshop elements and it showed up. i then installed a older version of the elements software on the new computer. Again, the scanner showed up. Not wanting to break licensing agreements, i just downloaded a brand new version of photoshop elements 12 and installed it. it only shows WIA in the file/import menu and not the scanner. therefore, i dont have the scanning software/application i need. without it, this version of elements is 100% useless to me. can someone please help me get my scanner to appear in the "file>import" menu? Yes, i do have the latest version of software downloaded from canon's website.

Hi,
I believe that this is where PC & MAC versions differ.
The PC version will "get from scanner" in the organizer but the MAC version has to "Import from scanner" in the editor. I don't know why they act differently.
It has been posted on this forum (can't find thread at the moment) a fix for the windows version of copying a module from a previous version if you had one. That is not an official fix.
If I find the link I'll post back.

CanoScan LiDE 200 - can't get it to work with 10.6.6

I have a CanoScan LIDE 200 and recently upgraded to 10.6.6, and now I cannot get the scanner to work. I spent 3 hours downloading all the latest drivers and even the Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector. Everything I tried failed and now I'm losing patience. I've never had a problem like this before, downloading the latest driver usually does the trick. Help, please!?

Are you able to add the scanner in Print & Fax? If the scanner does not appear in the Default view when connected to the Mac then the USB cable could be a cause. You can open System Profiler and select USB in the Hardware column on the left. Then in the right pane the LiDE 200 should be listed under one of the USB busses. If the scanner is not showing then try moving it to another USB port on the Mac. If it still fails to show then try another USB cable.

Canoscan LiDE 25 Only Scans at Low-Resolution

Since upgrading to Snow Leopard, I can't get a high-res scan out of Image Capture with my Canoscan LiDE 25. I've downloaded the 11.031 drivers from Canon's site but didn't improve anything.
I open image capture, choose the advanced options, let it run the overview scan, turn off the "Detect Separate Items" checkbox, resize the border to the part I want to scan, choose a scan location and filename, then turn up the resolution to 150 DPI. The scan runs really fast and then create a ~125 x 90 pixel image from the ~3" x 2" graphic I'm scanning. The same thing happens when I try to do a "Import from scanner" in Preview.
The Canon tools don't work with the latest driver version; anyone have an idea about how to get high-res scans again? (Besides buying VueScan…)

I know it's a great program — back when I worked in academic technology I convinced management to switch our computer labs to VueScan for both Mac and Windows.
However, considering I scan maybe 3 times a year, it seems there should be a solution for basic scanning that doesn't require a $40 license.

Canoscan Lide 25

Does anybody know whether it works in 10.6, either through Canon's ScanGear tool or through Apple's Image Capture?

Canon Customer support let me know the following: "With regards to the new Apple Macintosh Operating System that has just been released, the CanoScan LiDE 25 will be supported. You can expect a new driver and application to be available for download on our website in the coming weeks. "

Is there a CanoScan LiDE 60 Driver for Lion?

Mac OS X Lion does not seem to have a driver pre-installed for the CanoScan LiDE 60 scanner. There also is no current option for a lion driver on the scanner's Manufacture support web site. Does anyone know a way to fix this?

Below is the FIX that I received from Canon - long but it works!!!
We are currently in the process of updating the listings on our website.

4. Trash the CanoScan CanoScan XXXX.ds file.
4-1. Make note of any other files that may be in this folder. If
other files are present, move them to the desktop for now. Then place
them back after successfully using the scanner.
5. Return to the 'Library' folder.
6. Open the 'Preferences'
7. Locate and trash the 'CanoScan XXXX' folder.
8. Close the window and double-click on the Macintosh HD icon.
9. Double-click on the folder named Users.
10. Double-click on the folder named Shared.
11. Trash the folders named CanoScan, or starting with CNQL.

folder.
13. Open the Macintosh HD.
14. Open the 'Home' icon on the left (has a picture of a house).
15. Open the Library folder.
16. Open the Preferences Folder.
17. Locate any items named "CanoScan Toolbox", send it to the trash.

Canoscan Lide 200 will not start

After upgrading to Yosemite, when I plug in my USB-driven Canon scanner (into my Macbook Air from 2010) I get an error message advising that "a problem" occurred. Anyone else finding that a Canoscan Lide scanner will not start in Yosemite? Any suggestions as how to fix this situation? Thanks in advance.

Many thanks as well from me.
I was having a similar problem after upgrading to Yosemite with a USB CanoScan LiDE 700F. Don't think I had to install any drivers under Mavericks. Under Yosemite it just appears dead. Nothing ever happens. But, did see this error in Console whenever I plugged in the scanner. Then via a search found the above post.

Canon CanoScan Lide25 and PS CS4

Back when I had Photoshop CS3 installed, my Canon CanoScan Lide25 USB scanner appeared in the File... Import... Canon Scanner. But with my recent upgrade to CS4, it's no longer there, and I have to scan using the horible Canon software on my OSX 10.6.2 system.
When I was using CS3, I don't recall doing anything special to get Photoshop to recognize the scanner; it was just in the File... Import... menu. I have the latest Canon driver/software installed, and I even installed it after I installed Photoshop (if that matters). But still, there's no scanner import in CS4.
Any idea why this is, and how I can get it back in the File... menu?
Thanks!

I use the ScanGear CS driver for my CanoScan CS440F.
It's a few steps up from an LiDe model, but like you, I was unable to use the Import menu to scan until I visited Canon's website and reinstalled the ScanGear driver.
I had an LiDe 20 and an LiDe 30 with CS, CS2, and CS3. I never had a problem with either of them in any version. Maybe I'm just lucky I guess.
If it weren't for about 1600 slides I inherited and needed to preserve digitally, I never would have gotten rid of the other two, but the CS4400 scans slides and they didn't.

Mtn Lion won't see CanoScan LiDE 90

10.8.2 won't see my CanoScan LiDE 90 scanner, which worked just fine via Preview until very recently (must be a recent sw update caused this?) I've installed new driver from Canon, but system doesn't recognize it's there -- not even in Apps. Any ideas? Thanks.
