Photoshop Lightroom 2.3 Mac doesn't see Epson V500 scanner

Just installed all the drivers and software for my Epson Perfection v500 on my Mac running OSX 10.5.6 and Photoshop Lightroom 2.3 and the 'Import photos from device' option is greyed out - suggesting that Lightroom cannot detect the scanner.
The scanner is working fine via the Epson software, but that means scanning via this software and then seperately importing via Lightroom.
Any suggestions as to how to get the scanner detected by Lightroom?
Thanks

Lightroom doesn't work that way. You can set up a watched folder and use auto import. http://bit.ly/md69L

What version of Photoshop Elements came with the Epson V500 scanner?

What version of Photoshop Elements came with the Epson V500 scanner?
Will Photoshop Elements 13 work with the Epson V500 on Windows XP and Windows 8?

Hi,
I don't have a V500 but the data sheet for it says that it came with PSE 5 for Windows - unless they released a newer package.
PSE 13 will NOT run on Windows XP - you need Windows 7 or 8.1
PSE 13 doesn't support the Twain interface on 64bit systems and so is unlikely to support the V500.
The last release that might work for you is PSE 12 but keep in mind that there will not be any more updates for that version.
Your best bet is to download the trial version and test it on your system. If it works you might still be able to find PSE 12 for sale in some of the stores.

PSE 12 for Mac doesn't see my scanner

PSE12 for Mac refused to work with my scanner. In preferences I checked "Additional Plug-Ins Folder" and selected the Optional Plug-Ins Folder which contains the TWAIN.plugin. I restarted the PSE and the File> Import... command remains dimmed out. Tried resstarting the iMac and PSE still doesn't see the scanner. PSE 11 used to recognize the scanner right away. I hope this isn't a permanent change in PSE 12!
Thanks for any help!
OS X 10.8.5
Canon 8800F Scanner
TWAIN.plugin v12.0.4x001

Hi Barbara - I reinstalled PSE 11 on my iMac and verified that it still works with the Canon 8800F scanner. I also installed PSE 12 on my Macbook Air, moved the Twain plug into the right spot, and found that it doesn't see the scanner either. Preview on the Macbook does see the scanner OK so it's not a connection problem there either.
I noticed that the Twain plugins in PSE 11 and 12 are the same version but different sizes. The get info windows for the two versions of PSE on the iMac (Kahawalu) and the PSE 12 on the Airbook (Niumalu) are below. Would you be able to let me know the PSE 12 Twain file version and file size that is working with your Canon scanner? It might help narrow this thing down.
Thanks again for your assistance! William

Mac Doesn't See External Drives on WinPC, PC Doesn't See Mac

I'm trying to transfer some files that are on an external drive connected to a Windows PC to my new Mac Pro.
On the Mac, in Finder, I can see the PC, but I can only see it's internal Hard Drive; the external drive don't show up in Finder.
On the PC, I'm not seeing the Mac Pro at all. In Tiger, it seems to me, there was check box under the "sharing" preferences for "Windows sharing," but I can't find that in Leopard. So, the PC doesn't see the Mac at all.
It does suddenly dawn on me that I could just detach the external drive that I'm trying to copy from the PC and plug it into the Mac, but... that would be too easy. I would still like, at least, to be able to see the Mac from the PC.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
--PS

My recommendation is to format the drive as FAT32 via OSX's Disk Utility, this will allow you to read/write from both the Mac and PC environment.
Like I said, I don't think that's the issue, because my MacBook shares everything with the PC just fine (except the externals on the PC). And of course, I don't want to reformat the external drives until I've got the data off of them.
I just checked, and Tiger has a "Windows sharing" checkbox under the "Sharing Preferences" that allows the MacBook to show up in "My Network Places" on the PC. The problem I'm having is getting the MacPro to show up on the PC; the Pro has Leopard, and there's no "Windows Sharing" in Leopard that I can see.
Thanks again,

My mac doesn't see my broadcast dv camera either in final cut or imovie

Trying to take video we shot on professional panasonic camera and load it on the mac using imovie or final cut express. Imovie acts like it's importing but the file is empty (no media attached). Tried to move the files to drive but the macbook pro doesn't see the camera in the finder (using firewire or usb). HELP!
Final cut express doesn't show the camera at all as a source.

Lara,
Without specific details we can't even begin to help you.
What make/model camera shot the video? Are you trying to use the same camera to capture the video with iMovie or Final Cut Express?
Exactly what codec/settings did you use for shooting the video? DV? HDV? AVCHD? 1920x1080i60? 1280x720p30? Something else?
Have you ever captured video from this camera before? With this Mac before?
If you are using a different camera for capturing purposes, what make/model is it?
How are you connecting the camera to your Mac? USB? FireWire?
Cameras generally do not show up in the Finder; but if you look in System Profiler you should see it listed under Hardware > USB or > Firewire depending on how it is connected to your Mac.
What versions of OS X, iMovie and Final Cut Express are you using?
In Final Cut Express, what Easy Setup are you using?

Airport utility on Mac doesn't see AX

Airport utility on my Mac (10.7.5) doesn't see AX although it is connected to the internet through it. I've updated the Airport utility (6.2), restart the Mac, but still doesn't work.
My objective was to install an extern backup drive (to configure Time Machine through the wifi)
My iPhone & iPad do 'see' the AX and the external drive.......
Who can help?

Airport utility on my Mac (10.7.5) doesn't see AX although it is connected to the internet through it.
Apple uses the AX abbreviation for the AirPort Express. The AirPort Extreme is known as an AEBS.
If you have an AirPort Extreme, temporarily connect a spare Ethernet cable from your Mac to a LAN <-> port on the Airport router to see if AirPort Utility can "see" it that way.
If you happen to have an older "round" AEBS, AirPort Utility 6.2 cannot be used to configure this older version of the AirPort. Instead, you will need to use AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion for that task.
My objective was to install an extern backup drive (to configure Time Machine through the wifi)
Apple does not officially support Time Machine backups to a drive at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme, so your results may not be to your liking if you try this. It does seem to work for some users....while other users (like me) have nothing but problems when they try this.
If you happen to have the older "round" version of the AirPort Extreme, the USB port on that version will only support the print function.

New Mac doesn't see library

Howdy.
My iTunes library is on an external hard drive.
I have iTunes Match.
I had been using with Mac Book, and realized would make a lot more sense to use Mac Mini, since I wouldn't have to haul the external drive around.
Logged into iTunes on Mini. Pointed Advanced Preferences to my external hard drive, and the iTunes folder.
Doesn't see my files, and instead considers everything to be only in the Cloud.
I know from past (bad) experience that if I download again, they'll all be duplicated. How can I get iTunes on this Mac to realize that my music is physically there?
Thanks!

thanks Tony,
I clicked on the Library and that did it .. (I never found the "switch libraries" menu item) but this worked great ...
but just to give a complete solution ... I was looking for a option to use 2 screens and decided to look in the Preferences file and at the top was an option to designate a library .. to point to one. I guess I needed to look a little harder... thanks for your time and help,
ana

Help! Acrobat XI Pro for MAC doesn't see my HP 4780 scanner.

I know the scanner part of my HP C4780 works, both with Windows Acrobat 9 Pro and with all the other scanning functions on the Macbook Pro.
I don't know what to do. This is one of the major functions I use Acrobat for, and now I can't get it to work.
Help!

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).

One of my Macs doesn't see USB drive hooked to Airport Extreme

I have three Macs on my home network. Two of them can see the USB drive I've attached to my Airport Extreme, but the third -- a recent Intel Mac Mini -- won't. Airport Utility on the Mac Mini sees the drive, but Airport Disk Utility doesn't. Here's what I've tried:
~ Restarting the Airport Extreme
~ Retarting the Mac Mini
~ Reinstalling the Airport Extreme software on the Mini.
Any ideas?

have you gone to the network button in the finder and searched for it after pushing the network button?

Photoshop Elements 12 Editor (Mac) doesn't get closed when I quit

Again I try to report a problem with Photoshop Elements 12 (upgraded from PSE 10) Editor on OS X 10.8.5. Now in English. I am German, so please excuse me when I don't use the correct termini. Hope you're able to understand my problem.
After using the Editor I try to close the program: Close the window and press ⌘Q. But most of the time I can't close but have to press "quit immediately" in the dialogue window of the dock-icon. Have reinstalled several times, doesn't help.
Other user out there with same problem?

Hi Priyanka_Azad (nice to see a guitar lover),
Could you try using the menu to quit the Application, it is the last option under "Photoshop Elements Editor" Menu and not the shortcut.
Yes, I have tried this, but makes no difference...
Also, as you have mentioned you see this issue "most of the times".
Does that mean that it works fine at times as well?
Very rare, indeed.
To Priyanka_Azad, Barbara B. and Pete.Green,
a step forward, concerning welcome-screen:
Now I know what causes the dissappearing of welcome-screen. It's the update "Photoshop Camera Raw 8.2". Meanwhile I had uninstalled PSE 12, installed PSE 10 again (everything still fine there), uninstalled PSE 10 again, installed PSE 12 again. Then I recognized that before I update to Raw 8.2 the welcome-screen works. So far I have waived to update.
Very simple mistake, that I did. I had moved application into dock, not the alias of the application. Now, when I start with alias, welcome-screen works as it should. Unfortunately no influence on my "Quit"-problem.

I can't cut and paste and the mac doesn't see me as the admin

Okay so here are my current frustrations and issues:
1. I can't cut and paste anything! Not from emails, not in documents, nothing.
2. I went to make changes in the utilities and when I started, under my name, it said admin and now it says standard and the computer won't allow me to make changes. I try to enter my name and password and the computer says I am not the admin.
3. I can't delete the "test" user and "guest" user because apparantly there is no admin.
I have rebooted using the install disk and I was able to change the passwords but I still can't get in as the admin.
Is there a way to override this before I a) pull out all of my hair, my husbands hair and the hair belonging to my cat and/or b) before I throw the machine out the window and then have another frustration that the unit is not working?!

First back up all your data, if you haven't done so already.
Boot in safe mode (shift key down at startup) and check to see whether the clipboard now works. If it does, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and try again.
Next, boot in single-user mode by restarting the computer and holding down the Command and S keys at the chime, until you see white text on a black background. Wait for the text to stop scrolling, then follow the instructions on the screen, which will tell you run the fsck and mount commands. Be very, very careful to type the commands correctly. After you enter the mount command, please enter this:
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
Then this:
exit
The Mac will now boot up as if for the first time. Go through the setup procedure to create a new admin account with the same name and password as the old one.
