PSE Elements 9 Editor does not recognize scanner

Mac OS 10.7 Lion. Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Editor does not recognize my scanner (Epson 3170 Photo) even though scanner shows up in Preferences Print & Fax. Awkward workaround is to scan to desktop and open scan in PSE9.

Over in Windows, applications link to a scanner via TWAIN software, which is not included with Windows 7 - so the solution is to manually download the twain driver and install it 
How do applications link to a scanner using a Mac, and does your OS include that driver?

  • Elements 12 editor does not recognize .jpg

    My Elements 12 image editor will not open a jpeg.  It will open a tiff and other files but not a file ending in .jpg.
    For many years I have used Elements to open my iPhoto images and edit them. I used to use Elements 3, then Elements 6, and finally Elements 12.  Elements 12 worked fine up until last night when I could not make it open any iPhoto jpegs.  I have Elements 12 selected in my iPhoto Advanced Prefs to be the app to edit my iPhoto images.  It worked fine up until yesterday when it no longer would open an image.
    I soon discovered my Elements 12 will not open any jpeg even if I were to drag an image from my desktop to the editor.  Some times I see a pop up note saying that my Elements 12  does not recognize a file ending with .jpg
    If I double click several times on Edit in my iPhoto, Photo Ninja will open the image and tell me that Photo Ninja will now edit the image.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Editor is set to print a 10.2 x 15.2 cm image on A4 paper in landscape
    view and appears to be the right proportion in the preview pane.
    "Editor is set to print a 10.2 x 15.2 cm image".
    This is not clear to me. How/what is set?
    A4 paper is 29.7 cm x 21 cm.
    Are you trying to fill this entire sheet of paper with one image, or are you trying to print a picture package?

  • Adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version

    adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version.HELP
    If I try to register 4 boxes circle endlessly.Why should I have to register editor separately from organizer?

    This is almost the same as the problem I had. I'm my case the Editor installed but not the Organizer! Adobe chat told me they no longer have chat or any other services for Elements 12. I guess they want people to buy their new Elements 13, but that leaves us in a bad place and doesn't say much for how Adobe cares about their customers After it moves on to their next version. I posted a message like yours over a week ago, and only got one email from an Adobe staff person, asking me to answer a couple of clarifying questions, but he never followed up on my response, so my problem is still unresolved. If you are luckier and are given a solution please let me know what it is -- it might work for me too, and I'd be very grateful!  My email:  [email protected]  
    Good luck.
    Have you checked whether you have folder for PSE Organizer?  It is normally at this location in Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1:
    <C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer>
    If the folder is there then try double-clicking on the file called:  PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe
    If the folder isn't there at all then you need to re-install the package again using your original disks or from download from Adobe website.  <Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10>
    Hope this helps.

  • PSE_13 Editor does not recognize Windows 7 but the Organizer does?  How do I fix this?

    PSE_13 Editor does not recognize Windows 7 but the Organizer does?  How do I fix this?

    Try making separate desktop icons for the Editor and Organizer. You can then launch directly. The standard desktop icon is for the welcome screen which often runs in the background or doesn’t shut down properly.
    Start by right-clicking on the desktop and select:
    New >> Shortcut
    Then browse to:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
    Inside the Photoshop Elements 13 folder make sure you select the application (not a shortcut) by scrolling down to the files beginning with the letter P and highlighting ‘PhotoshopElementsEditor’
    Then click next followed by finish.
    You can repeat for the Organizer using the different file path.
    New >> Shortcut
    Then browse to:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements 13 Organizer
    Highlight ‘PhotoshopElementsOrganizer’
    Then click next, followed by finish.
    Now that you have your separate desktop icons you can delete the one for the welcome screen, if preferred.

  • Mac Os 10.10.2 does not recognize scanner

    With this version update Elements 12 does not show any import options and does not recognize the TWAIN plug-in.

    Let's try to deal with the sharing issue first. Your new problem is very common under Snow. However, it turns up with different timing in an idiosyncratic way.
    At first, my shares did not show up under shared in finder windows. I, then, of course, used "Connect to Server" to connect to the shares--both Mac and PC. I found that the more I kept the shares active the more likely they were show up under shared. Then, I discovered that if I kept the computers from sleeping during the period of needed access they would tend to stay in shared without nearly so much keeping the connections active.
    If you do not like the above work around, then there are two other possibilities. You can elect to show mounted items on your desktop. Do that and connect to each share. Then, go > users > unlock > + login options > try dragging the mounted shares to the login item window. If successful, then the shares should be available at login.
    Another approach is to mount and connect as indicated above. Then, making an alias to the share should at least make things faster.

  • Canon quick menu software does not recognize scanner for MG5520

    Hi,
    I have Canon Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One printer (MG5520).  I have installed Canon complete software.  But the quick menu does not recognize my scanner.  In Preferences only Printer is listed, but for Scanner nothing is available.  Could you please suggest how to get scanner as well for my device?
    My OS is Windows 7.
    Regards,
    Sharath.

    Hi sharma_swp,
    Reinstalling the drivers for the printer from the Canon USA website should provide the scanning option on the Quick Menu. Please click here to go to the Drivers and Software page for the PIXMA MG5520.  Once on the initial download page for your model, please do the following:
    1. Verify that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop-down menu is correct, and if it is not, please click the drop-down menu to select your operating system.
    2. Next, please click on the red arrow next to the "RECOMMENDED DOWNLOADS" section and click the FULL DRIVER AND SOFTWARE PACKAGE file. When you do, a red DOWNLOAD button will appear. Please click on the checkbox below the DOWNLOAD button, then click the red DOWNLOAD button to begin the download. The time for the download process may vary depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the file being downloaded.
    Once the file has been downloaded, please double-click on it to reinstall the drivers and software on your computer, then restart your computer.  If you still have difficulty with the Quick Menu showing items related to scanning, please call or email us using one of the methods on the Contact Us page for further assistance.

  • Image Capture does not recognize scanner with latest update of Mavericks 10.9.4

    Since last week (8-5-14) after updating to OS 10.9.4 (13E28) Image Capture and Printers and Scanner (in System Prefs.) do not recognize my scanner. What the hay! Yes, my scanner is elderly but like me is in perfect working condition. Until now. I've spent hours trouble shooting, i. e., downloading EPSONPrintDriver2.18.dmg and reinstalling, a waste of time. Changing usb/firewire cables, switching usb ports, deleting pref files and cussing. The Epson web site was useless it just tells me to download updates via Apple software updates. I hate the idea of being so dammed dependant on any one organization (Apple). I've been an Apple user since the Apple 2C but I do believe that will change soon.
    Anyone with a solution or replacement app for Image Capture? I don't want to spend my Social Security money on VueScan which dose work for me unless I have to.

    Try resetting the printing system. It can also affect the scanner.

  • Yosemite does not recognize scanner

    I have a MacBook Pro 6,2 (2.4 Ghz i5 and 8 Gb RAM) and I have just installed Yosemite 10.10.2. I am testing it carefully to make sure all of the applications that I need are properly supported. Yosemite does not see either of my scanners. I have 2 scanners; an Epson Perfection V600 Photo and an older HP Scanjet 5590. System Preferences does not see either scanner and I cannot, therefore, add them. I have downloaded and installed the latest driver and software from Epson. To test the scanners, I connect them directly to the MacBook Pro via USB. Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 does see the Epson scanner in the "select device" dialog that follows "Create PDF->From Scanner->Select Device" dialogs, but then returns an error stating is cannot communicate with the device. Acrobat Pro 9 does not see the HP at all. Image Capture does not see either scanner. Both printers (HP LaserJet 2035 and HP OfficeJet 8100) are visible and work properly, connected through my home network (Mac Pro wired, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air wireless), both are connected via USB
    My intention is make sure all of my existing hardware and software works as it should in Yosemite before I upgrade my Mac Pro desktop (still on 10.8.5 Mountain Lion). I cannot risk killing the whole thing. And I am not a Macintosh neophyte; I still have my old Mac Plus in a box in the garage and I have relied on Macintosh since 1986.
    Is there some installation or configuration detail that I am missing?

  • External Editor does not recognize LR changes

    I have PS CS5 installed, and after moving to LR4 I find that editing from LR to PS does not carry over all the changes made in LR. The crop is retained, but all lighting and color changes are not. AND, I can't get to the screen the asks you if you want to edit a copy with or without LR changes. So I'm stuck. Any thoughts?
    Thanx

    Thanks to both of you for the answer. It is a bit tricky finding the 6.7 update - the regular update page only goes to 6.6.
    It's because it's still a RC. Once the official release is made available, the update will occur as usual.

  • PSE 9.0 Organizer does not recognize iPhoto

    I purchased PSE 9.0 the other day and after I loaded it on my iMac (running OSX 10.6.5) I tried to use Organizer to import photo's into it. WHen I select "Get Files/From iPhoto" from the menu bar I get an error message that says  "There is no media to import from your iPhoto"  But the problem is there is. I have 100's of pics in iPhoto. iPhoto works and the folder for iPhoto is there.  So what am I doing wrong?

    The easiest thing is to use the iphoto export command to send the photos to the desktop, then put them where you want to keep them, then use File>Get Photos>From Files and Folders.
    As an aside, you don't want to use both iphoto and organizer to manage your photos, since that causes much confusion and duplication of efforts, since the two programs essentially serve the same basic function. If you're thinking about switching to organizer, I would make a small test catalog first and try that a while to see how it works for you.
    EDIT Just checking: You do know you can still use iphoto as your photo management program with PSE? Just set up the PSE  editor as your  external editor in the iphoto prefs and send your photos from iphoto.
