Problems using an Epson scanner with Lion

I have an Epson Perfection 4490Photo scanner which works with no problem on my Macbook running OSX 10.6 but will not run on my iMac running OSX 10.7.I get either "Falied to open a session on this device" message or "Scanner reported an error" Any ides please?

Hi, Gramps, and welcome to Apple Discussions. Press and release the F7 key on your keyboard, with the two overlapping rectangles on it. That will toggle the projector from Extended Desktop mode (which it's in now, and which treats the projected image as an extension of your regular display's desktop) into Display Mirroring mode, in which the same image appears on both displays, including the icons on your desktop, the menu bar, and the Dock. Pressing F7 again will return the projector to Extended Desktop mode. I mention this not because I think you'll want to do it, but in case you do it by mistake and wonder what happened.

I upgraded to 10.8.4 and now it won't let me use my Epson scanner, saying "power pc applications are no longer supported." How do I make it work?

I upgraded to 10.8.4 and now I can' use my Epson scanner I get a message saying, "ou can't open the application Epson Scan apps because Power PC applications are no longer supported." I also can't synch my old Palm Pilot for the same reason.
How can I fix this?

We need to sort out some facts here first:
• You cannot be running Mt. Lion on your iMac G5. What Mac is it? What is the Model Identifier listed in About This Mac; More Info; Hardware Overview
• What is the model of your Epson Scanner?
• Have you attempted to scan using Image Capture, located in your Applications folder?
• Your Palm Pilot software will only run in Snow Leopard; so depending upon which Mac you have, you will either have to:
1) partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it to "dual-boot" when you want to access you Palm software, or
2) install Snow Leopard Server (now available from Apple for $20 telephone orders USA & Canda only) into Parallels 8 to run your Palm software in Mt. Lion:

Using a Macbook 2008 with Lion 10.7.5, how can I project photos/keynote on smart tv screen? Macbook will not upgrade beyond Lion.

Using a Macbook 2008 with Lion, 10.7.5, how can I project photos/keynote presentation on my smart tv? It is connected to tv with mini-dvi/hdmi cable, but I don't know how to display the images. Thanks!

Did you switch the TV's input to the HDMI port you are using with the computer? Did you open Displays preferences to see if a second screen is displayed and then check the box to mirror to the TV screen? Did you search Google for any help links on how to do what you are trying to do?

Having problems using ion tape express with itunes cannot find the song on hard drive

Having problems using ION tape express with itunes. The song is on hard drive as temp1 not the name of the song. And I have problems playing it in itunes
because it says it cannot locate the song'

Then correct the name of the song or point iTunes to the new file.
Issues with restoring should be directed to the manufacturer of the backup software/device... this is not an Apple or iTunes issue.

When using printer Epson R1900 with Aperture 3 and if I mistakenly choose the wrong paper such as, epson's luster instead of glossy, does that change the exposure? Like make it too dark one or two stops!

When using printer Epson R1900 with Aperture 3 and if I mistakenly choose the wrong paper such as, epson's luster instead of glossy, does that change the exposure? Like make it too dark one or two stops!

Hi,
If you choose the incorrect settings for printing, yes - the print quality will be affected.
Different papers absorb the ink differently, so you can end up with prints that are too light, too dark, or have a colour cast if you make incorrect choices in your Aperture or printer settings.

Can I use a barcode scanner with LR?

Hello -
I am taking some school photographs and need to change the file name of each image to the registration number of the pupil. Is there a way of using a barcode scanner with LR to scan the code of the pupil's reg no and then automatically change the filename?
I saw a thread here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/799772 - but couldn't find the fields etc referred to.
While I'm here - can I download LR 4 SDK as part of Creative Cloud subscription?
Many thanks

I beleive you can download the SDK here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/photoshoplightroom/sdk/eula_lr4.html The link is at the ens after the EULA

Can't use my epson scanner

Hi all,
Sorry if this isn't the right forum...
I've installed the Mac driver for my Epson 2400 photo... when I start Image Capture the scanner starts straight away, but no other apps can find it (e.g. Acrobat, Photoshop)... they should be able to as it's a TWAIN device.
Has anyone got any suggestions...as a new Mac user I have no idea where to start troubleshooting this?
Thanks

nigelj and others having issues with the drivers for the Epson GT-2500
I decided to configure the scanner to work both inside the CS3 apps and outside as a stand alone.
I was successful. The prior issue I had - where the Espon Scan Utility would not start on its own as a stand alone interface - was caused by my having installed the more recent drivers 2.95A over those that came on the Epson installation CD.
I was able to correct the problem by doing the following:
1. Turn off and unplug the USB cable from the Epson scanner (either should work I did both just to be safe).
2. Insert the original Epson installation CD and follow the prompts until you get to the Easy Install prompt.
3. Select uninstall. This will remove the previous install(s) of the scanner software.
4. Re-boot the machine or shout it down and re-start. (I did this as a precaution).
5. Download the 2.95A driver from Epson (link is in my previous post above).
6. Open the installer file. It will open a folder on your desktop.
7. Double click the Setup file. It runs automatically.
8. If you check your Applications folder you should find an Epson Scanner Monitor app. It will disappear once you plug in and turn on your scanner.
9. Plug in and turn on the scanner. (You can check the Epson utility in the Applications/Utilities Folder to see if the scanner is Ready)
10. Test the Epson Scan Interface (icon of a scanner) in the Applications folder. It should open with 2.95A on the splash screen that appears when it starts. Close it and then open Acrobat Professional. The GT-2500 should already be selected and ready to go.
Incidentally, I have OS X 10.5.2 (I believe the most current version of Leopard) and this is my only scanner on this machine.
I hope this helps!

Using Juniper Network Connect with Lion

Has anyone had an luck using Network Connect to connect to a Juniper VPN with Lion? When I try to connect to secure network using Safari, Network Connect does not install and launch.

What version of Juniper are you folks running? We are still on 6.x (I'll have to check on what X is, I think its 5)
I enabled the java "enable applet plug-in and web sstart applications" and it still gets stuck on our host checker screen.   I set the developer Safari 5.0.6 and it actually gets past host checker, but does not present an option for network connect.
This tells me that host checker is running but no longer seeing what it needs to see (?) for the network connect option to be presented.   I was told by Juniper that an update needs to happen but it won't be availble until September.
Can someone verify they can actually get a network connect session working using Lion and safari 5.1 and how they got it to work, and what version of Juniper they are on?
If we need to get to 7.x we can do it on a test box but moving production there will take a good long time.   We *just* enabled the Mac VPN service at our company, and now those upgrading to Lion are finding themselves once again without VPN capabilities.    This is a real problem as we don't control weather they upgrade or not, and everyone wants to get to the latest OS.
Juniper is on its last legs at our company. This is probably the straw... they should have had this tested by now.

Hi Ricardo,
Thanks for posting the chart XML and associated information, as it's proved very helpful in deciphering the issue you've hit.
Firstly, in #1 you've attempted to create a "Spline Area" chart, according to your XML. This chart type is not one of the chart types that we have licensed from AnyChart. Only those chart types exposed via our Create wizards are covered by our license with AnyChart. If you wish to create such a chart type in your application, you will need to contact AnyChart and chat with them about obtaining a license for that particular chart type. In earlier releases of APEX, it was feasible to generate unlicensed chart types, such as "Spline", via the "Custom XML" region. However, that was not supported behaviour and was not the intended usage of the "Custom XML" region. Since 4.1, that option is no longer available. To resolve your issue, I recommend that you update the chart XML to use one of our licensed chart types.
Secondly, in #3 you are referencing an SWF file called "anychart.swf", however the SWF file that we incorporate in an APEX installation is called "OracleAnyChart.swf". To resolve this issue, I would recommend updating the SWF reference to point to the AnyChart 6 file that we've incorporated with the release i.e. /i/flashchart/anychart_6/swf/OracleAnyChart.swf. NOTE: you would also need to update the reference to the associated JS file, to /i/flashchart/anychart_6/js/AnyChart.js.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Hilary

Calendar Server 3.5: Problem using user's ID with uniuser -mod command

When there are two users who have the same Common Name (CN) in LDAP but
different User ID's (uid
field), I have a problem using the uid
field as an argument to
uniuser -mod in Netscape Calendar
Server (NCS) 3.5. For example, there may be two users, User1 and User2, who
both have the CN "John Smith." 

User1
uid: jsmith2
sn: Smith
givenname: John
nscalxitemid: 10001:00314
User2
uid: jsmith
sn: Smith
givenname: John
nscalxitemid: 10001:00213

Let's say I want to change the value for nsCalOrgUnit2
for User1 to "jsmith." In NCS 4.0,
I can specify the uid as
an argument to uniuser -mod
. However, in NCS 3.5, if I specify the
uid as an argument to
uniuser -mod, the entry
for the user does not get changed. 

Calendar Server 4.0 

%uniuser -mod "ID=00314" -m "OU2=jsmith/OU3=People" -n 10001
 
uniuser: modified "Smith, John" 

(The LDAP entry for User1 also reflects this change.)

Calendar Server 3.5 

%uniuser -mod "ID=00314" "OU2=jsmith/OU3=People" 10001
 
uniuser: no need to modify "Smith,John" 

(The LDAP entry for User1 does not reflect the change.) 

%uniuser -mod "S=Smith/G=John/ID=00314" "OU2=jsmith/OU3=People"
10001 
uniuser: no need to modify "Smith,John" 

(The LDAP entry for User1 does not reflect the change.) 

If I use the command uniuser -mod "S=Smith/G=John"
"OU2=jsmith/OU3=People" 10001
in NCS 3.5, the script will change the entry of the first "John Smith" in the
database and will cause the LDAP entry for this user to be updated as well.
However, the entry modified may or may not be the correct one. So, in
NCS 3.5, is there a way to specify a particular uid
to ensure that the correct LDAP entry
is modified?

To modify a user's information using the uid
field in Calendar Server 3.5, change
the user.ini file. The
following steps show how to change a user's information by modifying the
.ini file: 

<OL>
<LI>Open the user.ini
file, which is in the path /users/unison/misc/user.ini

<LI>Add a section containing the desired changes. For example, 

[Test] 
OU2 = jsmith 
OU3 = People 

<LI>Run uniuser with
the following options: 

% uniuser -mod "ID=00314" -s Test 10001
</OL>

It turns out to be a problem with the user Keychain. It has some weird entry that was sending the wrong password. I delete all entries to the server and that corrected the problem

How to Use VuPoint Wand Scanner with Photoshop?

I have recently purchased a VuPoint Magic Wand Portable Scanner. I would like to be able to use my Photoshop program with these scans. I can locate the images, open them in Photoshop, make adjustments to them, but I cannot figure out how and where to save them for export to a website. I am 58 years old, and the advancements in technology have left me a bit confused about what to do next. The SD card will not let me "save" the changes made to the image. So, how and where do I go from here?

I'm not experienced with Windows 7, so for more detailed directions (including videos) on that stage of the process, I recommed this web page: http://windows.microsoft.com/is-IS/windows/explore/photos
Once your scans are on your computer, you can start Photoshop, click on the word "File" on the top menu, and mouse down to the word "Open". The Open dialog will appear. In that dialog, you can navigate to the location where you stored your scans (the Picture library, for example). Once you've found it, click on one of your scanned images and click the "Open" button in the Open dialog.
At this point, you can make any adjustments in Photoshop that you wish. When you've finished, click on the word "File" on the top menu, and mouse down to the word "Save". You can save the edited image with the same name, or you can change the name.
One more thing: 58 is not old! ;-)

Problems using OS10.9.2 with migration assistant to transfer files from imac with OS10.6.8

Having problems using the Migration assistant on a new imac with OS10.9.2 to transfer files from an old imac with OS 10.6.8.

The Migration Assistant can transfer files from a computer running Mac OS X 10.1 or newer, but shouldn't be used to migrate applications from a PowerPC Mac to an Intel Mac.

Problem using Instant Client 10g with PHP4.3.10-16 on Debian Sarge

Hello,
My current email is [email protected]
I am trying to use PHP on Debian box using Oracle 10gR2 on a RH 4 server. Everything works fine individually, but I cannot get PHP4 to use InstantClient to connect to the Oracle Server. This is what I've done:
Oracle 10gR2 works fine on the RH 4 server. Listener is running and all required OS security is in place and works (TCP_wrappers, etc.).
Client machine runs Debian 3.1 (Sarge). It works fine and SSH connectivity to RH4 server works.
Instant Client 10gR2 installed on Debian client and works fine. Tested SQL*Plus connection to the RH server. I installed Instant Client from the zip file.
I did have to add libclntsh.so to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig to get Debian to use it, though.
Apache2.0.54-5 on Debian client works fine. Web pages on it can be opened in browsers from other machines.
Installed PHP4.3.10-16 on Debian client using following:
./configure --with-oci8-instant-client=<dir of my choice>
--enable-sigchild
I first checked ./configure help and the option with-oci8-instant-client was there.
Configure went well. Log showed checking for Instant Client files.
Ran make. Saw numerous Instant Client message as words scrolled.
Ran make install. Successful.
Restarted Apache2 with following env variables:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<my Instant Client directory)
TNS_ADMIN=<same directory where I put my sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files).
SQLPATH=<same directory>
I know this is correct because Instant Client SQL*Plus can connect.
Browsers on other machines can view simple php scripts run from the Debian box.
BUT, phpinfo does NOT show an OCI8 section.
phpinfo does show the correct extension directory, though.
Somehow, my PHP4 configure and make is not using the --with-oci8-instant-client option.
I checked $PHP4HOME/ext/oci8/config.m4 file and the verbiage IS in there to use the --with-oci8-instant-client option, either with the default location or the extension_dir location.
I tried using the new ZendCore product, even though it is not certified for Debian. It installed okay but I could not get PHP5 to work. I uninstalled it successfully and redid all of the above.
So, any ideas as to what else I can do here? Other than not use Debian (which is probably the wisest thing to do). And I suppose I could install a thick Oracle client, assuming that Debian would take it. But I prefer the Instant Client.
I tried the PHP ./configure syntax I've seen several places on this forum.
./configure --with-oci8=instantclient,<directory>
This syntax may work on Red Hat machines but it throws a syntax error on Debian and aborts the configure.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks, but that did not work. Configure aborts because it cannot find the required OCI8 libraries. The --with-oci8 option is for the Oracle "thick" client. I have only the Instant Client...and am not interested in loading the older client.
I may have my own solution next week, though. I will be loading RH4 on a new server and will then install ZendCore and forget all about using Oracle with Debian.
Update on trying ZendCore on Debian Sarge:
I tried installing it again yesterday. The install seemed go to well, and said it was successful.
It did NOT load PHP5, however. Nor did it load the Instant Client. My previously installed PHP4 and Instant Client remained in my original directories.
