Restore file " Image Capture"

I lost this file in "Applications" trying to resolve a problem with Canon scanner drivers.
How can I restore/download this file? I think I need this file to load photos from my camera
to hard drive. I can't find a stand alone file that isn't bundled with other applications.
Thank you for for your consideration!
Brian

Without IMAGE CAPTURE I don't get the question: "would you like to delete the files on your camera?"
Where do you get this question? There is an option in iPhoto to delete after import.
How do you normally import photos from camera to computer?
Next: A hot link to authorize downloading photos. Click on this and your photos are imported into the program iPhoto.
You can open iPhoto and import pix directly. And have iPhoto open when you plug in the camera.
What are your concerns about my using Pacifist?
No concerns at all. Go ahead and get *Image Capture* reinstalled but I don't believe it is required.
*Image Capture* is there if you do not have (or don't want to use) anything else.

Image Capture downloads pictures and creates .aae file

Using Image Capture 6.6 to download pictures from my iPhone 5S to Macbook Air w/ OSX Yosemite.
When I go to the folder where I download the files on my computer, it shows a .JPG file and an .AAE file.
I cannot find preferences for Image Capture to turn the additional download off.
It is doubling file size storage on my computer as each picture has a .JPG @ 600KB and an .AAE @ 600K
I have bulk deleted the .AAE files using Spotlight and searching the file type, but do not wish to continue doing this if there is way to turn this off.

Using a properties file works for other parameters (jdbc data source, logging, file name for the image), but kind of drawing a >blank on the data source for the camera.This is why I'm reluctant to upgrade software (imaginee frowney emoticon here; for those who still doubt wait until the next OTN site upgrade for another example). Stuff sometimes doesn't work any more when you do (imagine another frowny emoticon)
Until a better idea comes along use a card-reader to put the files into a folder, then load them into Apex as a second step. This is not as conveneint as loading directly from the camera, but if the interface won't work you'll have to do somethiing else.
I don't have immediate access to Apex - can you load off a card-reader instead of the camera by specifying the drive to load the files from?
It sounds like more of a Windows problem than Apex. Have you tried browser searches on Logitech and Twain to see if anyone has encountered similar problems?

Image capture no longer recognizes .jpg files

I have HV40 Canon and mini SD. I've been importing jpeg images for years. Now, all of a sudden, iPhoto (image capture) cannot read those file. This may have something to do with the latest updates which I installed last night. Now, even photos successfully imported just before the update, do not import. I get import error "Import error (-9937)" from Image Capture. One of these updates is screwing up my capture. OS X Yosemite, 10.10.3, MacBook Pro mid 2012. Thanks!

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Connect the camera and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
Also, use a card reader to manually upload the files from the memory card to a folder on the Desktop. Once you have the files safely on the hard drive use the camera to reformat the memory card. Take some test shots and see if iPhoto will recognize the card.

In Imovie 2011-Trying to image capture my project but it comes up after 10 hours- The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. File already open with write permission. Hopefully someone can help me.

My iMac will no longer import .jpg files. With either iPhoto or image capture

Can someone tell me why iPhoto and Image Capture say that .jpg is no longer a supported format. I've imported hundreds of photos from my camera before and now I can't. I noticed this after I had placed the SD card in my Panasonic Viera TV to view the photos. Is it possible that the TV screwed up the formating on the SD card? I'm still able to view them on the camera, but unable to import them.

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If the problem does not repeat itself in the test library then your current library is the culprit.
If that's the case try the following: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Image Capture from iPhone to OS X and File Permissions

Hello. I'm running Lion 10.7.3 and have an iPhone 4S and iPad 2. When I use the Image Capture app to transfer pictures and videos from my devices to OS X it works great with the exception of one problem. Every file that it copies over ends up with permissions of:
(Me): Read & Write
everyone: No Access
This is problematic because when my wife is logged into her profile or anyone else tries to view these files via shared folders, they can't see them. I'm putting them into a folder I created on "Macintosh HD". The folder that they are in has permission of:
(Me): Read & Write
wheel: Read only
everyone: Read only
Each time I import I suppose I could drop into Terminal and run a command to fix the issues but there must be a better way.
Any ideas? Thank you in advance.

Got a solution using Automator.
Create a workflow like:
This is an Image Capture Plugin. When you open Automator select Image Capture as the type of workflow and select these two actions.
Copy Finder Items will take the image from Image Capture and copy to your disk. Select the folder you want the image to go to in the To: pulldown. You should select the /Users/Shared folder and any subfolder you wish. I made a folder named Images.
In the second action make sure Pass Input: is set to as arguments and then add the chmod 644
Then exit Automator giving the workflow a name. In Image Capture you should see the workflow you just created
in the Import To: pulldown. Select it. Now when you import the fiels wil be copied to the folder you specified and the permissions will be set to 644 rw for you r for everyone else.
good luck. post back if you have any questions.
(and this is in the Lion list so my question about Aperture above is meaningless! )

How can I determine wasted HD file useage, HD full, Image Capture Manual?

I am a switcher. I have started using an SLR camera. I tried using imovie and iDVD and failed but now have more file room tied up. I deleted all but an DVD movie from stills and digital cam quicktime movies. I do not have a Handycam typecamera yet, but that is why I bought Iphoto 6. Have young grandchildren.
Big problem. Error came up that my hd was dangerously full . I began deleting unused programs I can add later.
I have a G5 with 160HD internal and an external LaCie which I have been using for .Backup. Having trouble reseting the timing on how frequently .Backup does its thing. So basically end up turning it off every few minutes.
Now...I am trying to learn more detailed use of Image Capture and the Apple bundled Graphic Converter. I do not see any pdf manual anywhere for these.
1. Can anyone direct me to manuals on these so I can stop duplicating all my files.
2. How can I see where my big file hogs are , especially duplicate files or even applications. I have PHotoshop CS2 in my computer (highest order of files) and in Applications in Rheta( my Home folder). If I delete it from the RhetaComputer level will it also disappear from my Applications?
I have recently upgraded to Tiger using the method where it leaves a copy of the previous system to find internet settings etc. I still had to delete and reinstall most applications, printer, scanner, Photoshop etc. afte Apple tech told me insisted I didn't need a clean install. Is this hogging space?
3. I found a book in the Missing Manual series on Apple Scripts. Which finds duplicate files, etc. It looked like a great way to keep organized. But it will have a learning curve. Would you recommend I get it.
4. I would like any suggestions on how to set up my computer (add a bigger internal drive), add a similar sized external hard drive for all old IPHOTO and Photoshop files, add a 300 gigabyte or so external hard drive for image storeage. and keep using .Mac Backup, or switch to a third party like ? easy to use for someone who doesn't know Unix or Apple script yet.
5.Take computer in to CompUSA or a local Apple consultant and sales store, in San Diego, it is Cry Wolf Consulting, buy the hard drives, have them set up the backup and routine maintenance.
6. I had a tech offer to spend 4-5 hours at $100 an hour to help me. I cannot afford. Want to get this fixed before crashes.
Please refer me to any Apple articles on full hard drives, using Image Capture to burn VCDs for non Apple users.
I have books, but when sitting here, overwhelmed. Any help or refer to other postings appreciated. thanks. Drowning in full desktoppp clutter, dulicate files, no way to separate my originals from my edits. I have CD and DVD burned originals, but how do you keep them in IPHOTO or Photoshop file name system. A good reference here . I have struggled with iphoto vs Photoshop since switching.

You can use WhatSize to find where the space on your hard disk is being used. If an item is present in both the Applications folder on your hard disk and the folder in your home folder, you can delete one of the copies without deleting the other one.

When what is clicked?
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

Image Capture creating zip files instead of regular files

I've been using Image Capture for many years. For some reason, all of a sudden, all my scans are being put into a zip file instead of as a regular file. I'd like to have Image Capture make regular files again such as pdf etc. What do I do?
Does this have anything to do with going to OS Yosemite 10.10?

Hi
appzapper & such are pretty flaky at removing things usefully, imo.
Use the uninstaller for speed download - http://www.yazsoft.com/products/speed-download/faqs/?how-to-un-install-speed-dow nload-properly
or get a hold of FindAnyFile or easyfind & search for Growl & Speeddownload & yazsoft - but from all I hear, the uninstaller works fine.
Failing that, Safari's settings plist file isn't in caches
Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.safari.plist
is the place
& if you're still stuck, test & maybe download another browser using a New User Account.

I have used Image Capture to scan images/documents and then saved them as either PDFs or PNG files. For some reason, just this past week Image Capture will no longer save the file. It scans, and the Scan Results window pops up, but it won't save file.

I have used Image Capture to scan images/documents and then saved them as either PDFs or PNG files. For some reason, just this past week, Image Capture will no longer save the file. It scans, and the Scan Results window pops up, but it won't save file.
The file name has no special character in it, just letters and no spaces.
I have done this in the past and it has worked, but now it will not.
I have not upgraded any software, that I am aware of.
After scanning, the Image Capture pops up the Scan Results with the file name in the window, but neither the Scan Results nor the Image Capture window responds to inputs. The Image Capture window is frozen, with only the "Overview" and "Cancel" buttons active (but non-responsive).
Is this a software issue or a scanner hardware issue? I am using a HP Photosmart C6200 series printer/scanner on a network using a Time Capsule airport.
Thanks.

I had the same problem.
Got a 90% fix. Apparently the Mavericks preferences won't work with Yosemite, so I just deleted the Image Capture preferences.
Unfortunately, the "Scan to" folder seems to be permanently set to the Pictures folder.
1. Quit Image Capture
2. Go to Finder > Go > Home, which opens up your home folder (named after your user name)
3. Open Library > Preferences > com.apple.ImageCapture.plist - Drag this file to the Trash
4. Start "Image Capture", click "Details" and change all your settings as you prefer
5. Quit and restart "Image Capture". Notice it remembers all your settings except "Scan to" folder. It insists on saving to "Pictures".
That's as far as I was successful. I tried changing the "Scan to" folder to "Desktop", but on launch, Image Capture always sets it back to "Pictures".
This is what I tried:
6. Download and install "Pref Setter" from http://www.nightproductions.net/prefsetter.html
7. Quit "Image Capture". Right-click on "com.apple.ImageCapture.plist" and open with Pref Setter.
8. Search for "Pictures", which finds "~/Pictures" (the tilde character at the start means your home directory).
9. Double-click on "~/Pictures" and change it to the folder you prefer. I like "~/Desktop"
10. Choose File > Save then Quit from Pref Setter. Note that re-opening the plist file still shows "~/Desktop"
11. Start up "Image Capture" -- on startup, "Image Capture" sets "Scan to" folder to "Pictures"
I consider this a bug.

PDF output file from Image Capture corrupted

This problem occurs only when scanning multiple page documents into image capture, the lower 1/4 of the first 2 pages are unreadable blurs. The page shows up ok in the Image capture preview window, but the PDF output is corrupted. The printer is a Brother MFC-7820N, I am scanning 150 dpi grayscale, US letter, no image correction, to PDF. The problem occurs with both of my computers, Quad G5 10.5.8, and a MacBook 10.5.8, this has happened since I purchased the printer, I was running 10.4 at the time. I have just scanned 1 page at a time with no problem, but now I have a large amount of documents to scan and I get the corrupt files. If anyone has seen this and found a solution, I would appreciate any suggestions.

Ah perfect, you made me aware of a feature kink I didn’t know about! When you import stuff using Image Capture, it goes into /private/tmp/Image Capture_Import.(string of numbers and letters).
You can navigate there by going to the Finder, hitting Command-Shift-G, and typing in /private/tmp—if the folder still exists, as it usually does for some time, sometimes even until the next restart or so—you can see the folders which should include one or more of thoe Image Capture_Import.something folders and find your files.
Incidentally, if you want to find a “system” file, i.e., one that’s in a location normally hidden by the Finder, you can:
1. Open up a new Spotlight/Find window in the Finder, and start searching by name.
2. Next to where it says Search: This Mac… etc. there’s a + button. Click that, then
3. From the dropdown menu choose Other… and look in the list for “System files” and check the “In Menu” checkbox for it.
4. Hit OK.
5. Choose “System Files” which is now in the dropdown, choose “are included” from the next dropdown.
Be careful what you do with files you find using this method. It will show everything, including files essential to running your Mac properly, so unless you know exactly what you’re doing, don’t just start dragging files off this window onto your Desktop or anything, try to copy them instead by option-dragging (holding down the option key while dragging)—that way, you’re only making copies, not moving a file from where it’s supposed to be, and your Mac can find it.
Hope this helps! If you can’t find your files this way, there are other programs which can undelete and perform other operations to recover data… this happens to everyone, no matter how long you’ve been a user.

Image Capture and special characters in file names.

Hung up image capture yesterday: We tried to enter a date in the file name of the document we were scanning. It proceeded normally, but then did not save the file and image capture would not scan again until OS restarted.
Problem repeated until we discovered a slash in the file name box. Changed the file name and everything works now.
Software should either prevent user from entering special characters in the file name box, or properly handle the error and not hang up the application.

Hi,
Would mind providing a screenshot about how your Content Query Web Part rendering in your environment?
In my environment, it displays the filename which contains periods:
I would suggest you create a new page and insert a Content Query Web Part to perform the test again.
Feel free to reply with the test result or if there any progress.
Thanks

Image Capture does not save a scanned file

Image Capture using an HP Photosmart C3180 to scan a document does so but does not save the file to the Desktop.
A pop-up windows displays Scan Results but still not file
O/S Lion, Image Capture Version 6.1 (440).
Used to work, what is the deal?

As for the scanner - so is this new one wireless? When I hooked up my Epson All-in-One, I had to install it via USB first before I could install the wireless (per their instructions). With Snow Leopard, I simply installed the driver and it covered and recognized both the print and scan function - not so in Lion; I had to go through hoops with the scanner part and it finally showed up as a separate unit. I thought that is silly, but - as long as it works..... I'm trying to think of possibilities since I'm about out of ideas, so you might want to consider that (if it applies). The other troubleshooting suggestions usually include redoing the "add" function after a reboot.
As for Image Capture, I am out of ideas. FWIW, I never use it - in my workflow, there is no need for it. Not sure if this would have an impact, but make sure that you choose Image Capture in the CDs&DVDs Preference Pane (mine is set to ignore or ask purposely):
If that does not work, I'd suggest reinstalling the OS over the top of what you have.

Where are temporary files created for "image capture"?

Hi all
I have been using image capture with no problem whatsoever, until recently. I was scanning a big file and while it was saving it or something I closed the lid of the computer and interrupted the scan. Now the scanner can do a preview but is no longer able to "scan" the file that i see perfectly through preview. I think that the problem is that there is a corrupt temporary file somewhere that needs to be manually deleted. If you know where such files are stored or if you have a better idea, please let me know.

You may be on to the correct solution. I've seen this problem with a big printing job that a user had to cancel and then had to "go in" and delete the print job before they could print again. On the Mac, there is something called CUPS (something Unix Printing System) and it has a role in printing and I believe faxing. It "might" play a role in scanning through Image Capture but I'm not sure. Anyway give it a look and see if there is an incomplete scan job in there that you can delete.
Note: this looks like a website URL but it leads to CUPS on your Mac.
http://127.0.0.1:631/jobs/
This may not be applicable to scanners but it's worth a look.

Iphoto 11 is not recognizing jpeg files downloaded from camera and card reader. Nor will it allow me to transfer from image capture

iphoto 11 is not recognizing jpeg files from either the camera and card reader. Canon Eos rebel dig. Nor will it allow me to transfer images from image capture to iphoto. No problem downloading to image capture.

Sounds like a damaged card. Get your photos off the card with Image Capture and then reformat the card in the camera. Take some pictures and see if the card is recognized by iPhoto and the card reader.
