Photoshop CS can't see my Canon Scanner

I've never had a problem opening the Canon N1220U scanner until today. I reinstalled the OSX driver off Canon's website but still Photoshop thinks the scanner is not connected. Although when I click "About This Mac" it's listed.
What can I do? I shouldn't have to use Vuescan or what ever that program is called.
Thanks

Robert, try disconnecting the scanner at both ends, then reconnect the scanner to the computer and to the power outlet, now reboot the computer.

Installed leopard 10.6.7 Photoshop CS3 will not see my canon scanner in the file/import

I have been using CS3 for years, with my faithfull canon 5600F used the import twain feature worked great, installed leopard 10.6.7: now my twain plug in does not show in the import menu: I read through many forums & posts: can't find a solution.
I do not have the "open rosetta" feature in the file info.
so what can I do?
am i the only one to experience it?

Have you checked for updates to the drivers, etc? See

You need to select the OS to see what is available.

I can't see my Canon MG5220 printer... Initially I was getting "there is a communication error" so I rebooted everything, reset the printing system, reinstalled the driver and still NO luck! It seems to see the scanner, but never the printer. HELP!

I can't see my Canon MG5220 printer... Initially I was getting "there is a communication error" so I rebooted everything, reset the printing system, reinstalled the driver and still NO luck! I see no printers available in the Print & Scan area. If I click "+" it seems to see the scanner, but never the printer. HELP!

The printer component uses a different protocol to advertise itself on the network compared to the scanner component and it can take several seconds longer to appear after the scanner has.
That said, with the introduction of AirPrint, the MG should be seen as Bonjour Multifunction in the Add Printer window, as shown below.
Selecting this Bonjour Multifunction entry will create a printer using AirPrint and a scanner using the iCA driver.
So do you see the MG5220 as Bonjour Multifunction or just Bonjour?

I am trying adobe Photoshop and adobe illustrator because I can't decide which one to buy so I want to try both, after I downloaded Photoshop I can not see the option "free trial" for adobe Illustrator, it is because I can only free try one at the time??

Bryan,
You can download both at the same time.
But you may wish to start off with one and use it full time, then download the other later, so you get the maximum possible time with both.
If you have trouble getting the free trial on the Adobe site, you may try here or here:

Image Capture can't see Epson v700 scanner in Lion:

Never Mind. Fixed It. I re-installed the scanner software (dated July 2009) and everything is fine now. I don't know how Drivers from before Lion, and the same version # as I was already using, could fix this... but it did. Maybe someone in the same boat will find it useful. The drivers are here : http://www.epson.co.uk/Store/Scanners/Epson-Perfection-V700-Photo/Drivers-Suppor t?supportLandingPage=true
Hello
I've recently upgraded my OS X 10.6.8 to Lion... currently at 10.7.4. I have an Epson v700 scanner, connected via USB, that works with the Epson Scan application and with VueScan. But Image Capture can't see it. I installed the ICA driver update from Epson. I've done the OS X Software Update. No help so far.
I can't install the Epson v700 in the Print & Scan preferences pane as well because it just seem to "see" any scanners. I had earlier deleted the scanner because an Epson KB article had said to delete the scanner, then do the OS X Software Update, then to re-add the scanner. But the scanner is not being seen by OS X directly so I can't add it back... though Epson Scan and VueScan seem to be able to scan. Very odd.
Any other suggestions?
Yes, I've restarted the system... though I may try it again.
Thanks...

Canon Australia is hosting a scanner driver for 10.8 and MP Navigator v3.0.5 for your MP180. Install the scanner driver first and then MP Navigator.
Note that Canon is not hosting an ICA driver for this model, which is used by Image Capture and Preview. So this would explain the lack of the scanner entry in the KB article that Clinton has mentioned (the vendors make the drivers - Apple just hosts them).

Photoshop CS5 - Can't see anchors or path outlines. If I zoom in or out, they appear.

Hi,
Since installing CS5 on my PC, I've been having a SUPER annoying issue.
When I do a free transform, draw with the bezier pen tool or anything where you want to see anchors & path outlines, they are invisible. They are in fact present b/c:
if my mouse hovesr over an anchor point (by chance or my estimating where the anchor points are) the mouse tip changes
if I zoom in or out, then everything shows up (anchor points & lines)
Right after I zoom in or out, if I then make a change to an anchor point (drag it or pull it's handles) those changes don't happen live. As in, I can't see/preview what I'm doing/moving. I have to do it, let go, & then zoom in (or out) just to see the current state of anchors/paths.
It's totally unworkable & I don't know how to resolve. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
I'm hoping it's some little setting that I'm just oblivious to...
THANKS!!

They should stay visible. They do normally. You know that with one of the pen tools selected you can ctrl-click on a path to make the anchors visible, right?
But they should stay visible during a zoom operation.
It's possible your video driver isn't implementing OpenGL properly. First thing to do is try temporarily disabling OpenGL to see if the problem clears up. Go into Edit - Preferences - Performance to do this.
Even if this doesn't correct the issue, it's almost always a good idea to visit the web site of the manufacturer of your video card and see if they've released newer video drivers for your card and version of Windows.
Best of luck.

Iphoto photoshop brousing -can only see photos in iphoto albums not in pict

Why can I only see photos in albums and not in the general area of iphoto? In the finder it seems like there are no photos in the folders.
This started with my new camera a Canon A610 my older photos are there in any type of search. What can I do to make the Canon pictures show up in library. I am worried that the pictures are not there on my back up harddrive.

Photoshop CS3 can't see some fonts

My Photoshop CS3 cannot see at least one of the TrueType fonts I have currently installed. The font in question is Sublime by Conoglio Type and it was accessible by Photoshop CS3 when it was installed on a previous computer under Win XP. I am presently running Win 7 and my other apps are able to find and use Sublime without difficulty, including other Adobe apps, so this problem seems to be unique to Photoshop.

I reinstalled the font just to make sure, but in so doing I realized that I was wrong -- it is a PS Type 1 font rather than a TT as I had thought. Then I noted that none of my Type 1 fonts showed up in Photoshop. So I decided to try copying the font files (PFB as well as PFM, of course) to C:\Program Files (X86)\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts and found that this seems to be the secret and that the font is now available for Photoshop use.
Why it cannot access it in the main Fonts folder remains a mystery, but one I don't actually have to solve.

I can't see my Canon MF4270 printer during setup!

I'm so sick of this printer! I've started school so you could say I'm in the middle of it all so I really need to start printing out papers/documents from my teachers.
I've had this printer for about 3 years now. It's always worked fine with my old laptop running Vista.
I have my iMac in a seperate room and I use my printer (connected to my router) as a network printer.
I went onto the Canon webpage for MF4270 series printers drivers, select my operating system as OSX 10.7 and downloaded the "Mac_UFII_V225_us_ENI.dmg".
I installed the drivers fine.
However after this I go to Settings -> Printings and Fax.
I wait and I wait, but my printer never shows up.
Is there anybody who could help me?

Canon has stated here that they currently have problems printing with the UFR2 v2.25 driver from Preview and TextEdit. The v2.25 driver was released before Lion and is regarded as an intermim solution until an official driver for Lion is released. In the meantime, if you need to print PDFs you can either open them in Safari or download the free Adobe Acrobat Reader X.

Why can't Photoshop 7.0 see my Epson scanner ?

Hi everyone!
This is probably more a Photoshop/Epson compatability problem but I thot I'd post it here anyway, as I'm sure I'm not alone in my struggle..
Just upgraded to Photoshop 7.0, only to find that it can't see my scanner anymore (an Epson Perfection 1240U) when I try to access it via File>Import>TWAIN as I prefer to do. It worked fine in Photoshop 6.0 I have to point out.
I went to epson.com and downloaded the recommended driver updates, and now I can see the scanner listed under Import but still no dice when I try to start the device - my Mac tells me there is no scanner installed.
Anyone know enough to shed some light on this situation?
Thanks in advance

Hi again Joe!
Well thanks, I tried your advice but to no avail.
I installed at: Apps>Adobe PS7>Plug-Ins>Import/Export>TWAIN>Contents>Mac OS (here I could also choose Mac OS Classic but didn't)>Epson Scanner
After getting a "Requires restart" message, the "Epson Screen Callibration" box opened up and wether I completed it or not, my Mac froze and I had to force-quit before re-starting manually. On restart, when clicking on Twain Installer to try again, I got a "Mac OS9 starting" warning!! Checking the Epson Scanner file I found it empty, even though I tried the process (& variations on the process) several times - always the same.
So really, I dunno what might work. Maybe removing all Twain files from everywhere and reinstalling but I dont think I dare! I can still scan from PS6 so that's what I'm doing..
Maybe I'll try Epson as you suggest, though I've heard they aren't so helpful.
Thanks for your time Joe!

I have a canon scanner MP560 wireless. Needed to create new wireless network and now my computer can't find the scanner/fax..

My iMac doesnt' see my Canon MP560 wi fi scanner ever since I created a wireless network in my house. Can't find a way to change whatever settings i need to to connect the scanner. help.

Well let's see if we can help you get set up. Have you got any 2.4 GHz cordless phones in the house and if so try unplugging them and do a hard reset of the express.
1. unplug the express
2. press the reset button
3. while pressing the reset button plug in the base station
4. keep holding the rest button till you see 4 green lights flash
you may have to hold it for 30 seconds or so
if this doesn't work try plugging the express in right beside the computer and then going through the airport setup assistant
Good luck
Let me know

I am not able to see the scanner in photoshop.

Are you using a mac or windows? And what version?

I updated to Photoshop CC 2014 and now it won't recognize my Canon Scanner LiDE 210.

I updated to Photoshop CC 2014 and now it won't recognize my Canon Scanner LiDE 210.
Is there a fix for this? It worked with CS6 and CC just fine.

Did you turn off the "show transform controls" option in the move tool?
It sounds like you were using that previously.
And you can always transform by using the Free Transform command (command/control T).
