Scan in Photoshop CS5.1

I  am trying to use Epson perfection 4180, which I used for CS2,
The download of the TWAIN plugin from the Adobe website, which is promised to make this function, does not work.
Anyone has any idea what to do?

  • Scanning into photoshop CS5.1

    Photoshop CS5 does not list my scanner in the File/ Import menu. Is it a twain problem. Anybody know of a fix?

    TWAIN has been more or less abandoned everywhere. It was buggy and unreliable and caused a lot of crashes.
    Use the scanner software as a standalone application. The net result is the same, all TWAIN ever did was call that software up inside Photoshop (instead of running it outside).

  • __Just bought a Canon Scanner (CanoScan9000F) - how do I scan directly into Photoshop CS5?

    I have a CanoScan 9000F scanner - I'm trying to scan through Photoshop CS5 Extended but I just can't figure it out...
    I downloaded the TWAIN plug-in:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405072.html

    Canoscan comes with a bunch of software including ScanGear - in manual it says you should use this instead of Twain (don't know why that) or VIA. If you installed everything correctly you should see the it in File->Import->CanoScan 9000F.
    On the other hand I have few questions, maybe someone can help:
    - how to I scan 48bit images into PSE ?
    - is it possiblle to automate dirt / scratch removal for b/w negatives (FARE) ?
    - maybe you know of a plug-in that can do it - I have thousands of black and white films to scan, and doing it by hand is not really an option (for colour materials FARE works great)
    Other than that i find the scanner quite good, especially the ability to scan more than one frame at a time - I can set it up in a moment (LED light is great, no warm-up time for a scanner finally), and then let it to the work, while i do my work - as scanning - mebye due to the fact that my computer is not the fastest out there) is still slow - 4 slides take > 30 minutes. But the results are very nice - if you want to check the quality, here is the link to my photographs scanned in PSE and Canoscan (origanally at 3200 dpi, resized for the web).

  • I recently got a new HP PC 500-267c/64 bit Windows 7 computer. I installed Creative Suites CS5 and I cannot scan into Photoshop? It says I need the Twain Plug In. How do I get it?

    I have a new HP PC 500-267c/ Windows 7/64 bit c omputer. I installed Creative Suites CS5 and I cannot scan into Photoshop.
    It says I need the Plug In Twain to scan into Photoshop and can download it but nothing else. How and where
    do I find the download?

    There's no 64 bit TWAIN so you need to use the 32-bit version of Photoshop. Personally I'd recommend that you use the scanner software as a standalone application and forget TWAIN, which is rapidly becoming obsolete and more or less abandoned everywhere. All it does is call up the very same scanner software, only from within the PS UI, and tying up Photoshop in the process.

  • Photoshop CS5 Extended crashing on Windows Vista.

    I've just installed Photoshop on my system. My video drivers and everything are up to date. Video card is NVidia GeForce 7050/ nForce 620i and it shows as compatible on the Photoshop tested cards list.
    Photoshop CS5 Extended opens fine and dandy. But whenever I try to do anything it crashes. Tried scanning a document via the Photoshop import, scan starts, goes to open the scanned object, crashes. Tried opening a new document. Set my document preferences, click ok, Photoshop crashes... Try to open an existing image, the image starts to open, Photoshop crashes... I think you get the picture.. but I don't LOL.....

    I'm at a loss..... Does anyone have a flashlight to help me find my way out of this deep dark cave? LOL
    Thanks in advance.

    Latest is not always greatest with video drivers, ESPECIALLY from nVidia.
    1.  They apparently don't put too much effort into supporting older hardware.
    2.  The MUCH larger video game market has them all scrambling to improve their latest and greatest offerings to improve the frame rate in Crysis or whatever, and they don't seem all that interested in Photoshop users.

  • Photoshop CS5 will not open in one of four accounts why

    I have an issue with Photoshop not opening in one of my four accounts on my MacPro.  I had t change my bootup drive to a larger one.  Now, whenever I try to open Photoshop CS5 in my primary standard account it says that it cannot find the scratch disk and so can't launch.  This is very strange because it will launch just fine in the Admin and two other Standard accounts.  I have checked preferences to make sure that the proper  disks are selected.  I have deleted both preferences files in my standard account.  All to no avail.  Can someone shed some light on this issue, please?  Thanks.MBJ
    PS All updates applied.

    Thank you all for your help.
    The scanner options are to save as JPEG/Exif, TIFF or BMP (with standard, low compression or high compression).
    I've just scanned a colour photo and saved it in all three formats (standard compression). All the files now open in PS, with the Camera Raw preview screen (which I've never seen before!).
    I've also scanned a black and white drawing, both as a B&W photo and as a B&W document, and saved these scans as TIFFs. Both these now open in PS. The older files that I have not been able to open in PS still do not open. (These files open in MSoft Picture Manager and Quicktime Picture Viewer - though the quality is awful in Picture Viewer.)
    It seems to me that whatever was causing the problem might have been 'cured' by some recent software update.
    Do you think this is the likely answer? If you'd still be interested to look at one of the rogue files then I could upload one.
    Thanks

  • There is no 64 bit TWAIN plug-in for Photoshop CS5?

    I have downloaded the PSCS5OptionalPlugins_Mac_en_US dmg and opened up the "Optional Plug-Ins" and there is no TWAIN driver for 32_64bit.
    My Epson Perfection 4990 Photo works fine stand alone. I installed an upgrade for it (the driver) so I have the latest and it is suppose to work with 32 or 64 bit. Photoshop CS5 does not recognize the 32bit_only version downloaded plug-in when I copy it into the Plug-Ins/Import-Export folder.
    So how can I get my Epson to be recognized in Photoshop CS5 under File -> Import.? I did have it working in CS4 but CS5 needs a 64bit version and I don't see how to get that and I'm stuck. Would buying Silverfast bridge this problem?

    To have this option simply eliminated doesn't make Ps easier to use for those who scan this way.
    Just to be clear, this option has not been eliminated in Photoshop; you can still scan directly in Photoshop within the constraints I've mentioned elsewhere recently, but will post again:
    (1) You need to install the optional TWAIN plugin, which you can download from the Adobe web site. This plugin is not installed by default. Make sure you have the correct TWAIN plugin, the TWAIN plugin from CS4 will not work in Photoshop CS5, and vice versa.
    (2) In Photoshop CS5, you can scan in 64-bit mode if you are running Snow Leopard (10.6.x), and the scanner manufacturer has released a 64-bit compatible TWAIN driver. So far, most TWAIN drivers are not 64-bit compatible (the only ones I know of are for more recent Canon scanners.) Check the scanner manufacturer's web site for the latest information. You can launch Photoshop in 32-bit mode to use a TWAIN driver that is not 64-bit compatible.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS5 do not recognize my scanners

    I have 3 Canon scanners.
    They are all reconised by Photoshop CS4 extended.
    Now I bought and installed also Photoshop CS5 Extended.
    None of those scanners are recognised by CS5. So I have to scann with CS4, save the picture and then openwith CS5.
    I have Windows VISTA Ultimate
    Will you advise me what do do in order to be able to scan directly from CS5?

    I'm not being difficult but I don't understand what the problem is or how it takes more time.
    "Sorry.
    I did that. It takes much more time than scanning using "Import" from
    Photoshop itself.
    It seems to me it was not worthwhile what I paid for Photoshop CS5."
    Photoshop is a photo editing program.  It has no influence concerning how fast your scanner scans.  There is no TWAIN for 64 bit, therefore, no IMPORT.  I fail to see how using Canon software directly takes longer.  I scan hundreds of photos.  I have not used IMPORT since I bought PsCS4 and use a Vista64 machine.  It hasn't affected the time required or the quality of the scans one bit.
    I believe Photoshop to be worth every cent, as a photo editor.  It's NOT a scanning application and was never intended as such.
    I use an Epson scanner.   My routine is to scan (in Epson software) the image and it is saved as a tiff in whatever folder I want it to be in.  I click that file and it opens in Photoshop.  Does not take long at all.
    Please explain exactly the process you are using (using Canon software) and how it takes longer.

  • Incorrect text size in Adobe Photoshop CS5 for Mac?

    Hey all,
    I am posting this for an older gentleman who is a photographer and uses Photoshop on his Mac. His iMac runs OSX 10.9.3 and he uses version 12.0.4 X64 of Photoshop CS5. I noticed when I was to his place the other day giving him tutoring sessions that his Photoshop has issue with displaying text sizes incorrectly...
    For example, we took one of his scanned image files of a slide and changed it's resolution lower so he could send it to a journalist for an article. He wanted to add his name, a date, and a copyright symbol down in the corner of the image....fine. However, the text is showing up as what LOOKS like 12-point, but we have it set to 0.3!!!! It's VERY frustrating! I read many people had issues with this and fixed it by updating, but his Adobe Updater program says there are no newer versions of Photoshop available for him to update to...? Can anybody tell me how to fix this issue for him or point me in the right direction? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!!!
    Cheers and thanks!

    Having type set to the default Points, can be problematic IMO, and I always set it to Milimeters in Preferences > Units & Rulers > Type.  That way I know that if my image size is, say 10 inches high, and I choose a Type size of 25, it will be one tenth the height of the image regardless of resolution (ppi).

  • Does Photoshop CS5.1 support TWAIN plug-in on Mac OS X V 10.7.4

    I am running Photoshop CS5.1 Extended V 12.1 in 32 bit mode on a Mac OS X 10.7.4 and followed instructions to install the TWAIN plug-in as written here:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4904
    I restarted Photoshop, but the TWAIN plug-in does not appear in file/import dropdown as it did in my earlier version of Photoshop (see attached screenshot).
    I found this discussion in the forums which implies that the TWAIN plugin is supported in CS5.5 and Mac OS 10.7 (Lion):
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3816883
    Is the TWAIN plugin supported in CS5.1 and Mac OS 10.7?  If so, can anyone help me troubleshoot why the plug-in does not appear in my file/import dropdown list?
    Thanks in advance.
    P.S.  I prefer to use the TWAIN plug-in because I am very familiar with the TWAIN driver and how to manipulate scanner settings to get a scanned image that represents my original artwork.  I am testing the recommended VueScan and it offers more than the epson scanner driver on the mac, but I can get more work done in less time with a TWAIN plug-in because there's no learning curve.

    Additional information:
    installed trial version of VueScan, which included a Photoshop plug-in for my epson scanner.  That plug-in IS recognized (and functional) within Photoshop CS5.1.

  • Where do I put Scanner Import plug-ins in Photoshop CS5?

    I cannot get Photoshop CS5 to recognize my TWAIN plug-in for my Epson Perfection 4870 scanner. It works in CS4. I copied it into the Imp/Exp folder in CS5, but no dice. Where should it be put? (I also tried the Extensions folder and searched in both Library folders (Application Support-Adobe etc. and also in System.) It didn't matter where I tried installing the plug-in, each time I started CS5 again it wasn't recognized and the only items in the Import menu are those installed-- Variable Data Sets; Video Frames to Layers; Notes.
    I had a similar problem with CS4 which no longer would allow me to open my Minolta Dimage Elite 5400 II film scanner using its plug-in within Photoshop.(No problem in CS3.)  However, I could still use it from it's own stand alone scanner application and then open the TIFFS in Photoshop. So a solution for this scanner's plug-in within CS5 would be welcome as well. But the Epson is more critical, because its stand alone software won't work on my system (Mac OS 10.4.6 with latest various updates and 4GB RAM) meaning that for the time being I'm still having to use CS4 to scan and then switch to CS5. Help, please. And thanks in advance.

    You need to run Photoshop in 32-bit mode. Epson TWAIN drivers are 32-bit only.

  • Photoshop CS5 will not open some tiff files

    I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and I'm using Photoshop CS5 as my default program for opening .jpg and .tif files.
    Recently I installed a new scanner (Canon Lide210) and I usually save the scanned images as .tif files (for manipulation later).
    Images in .tif format saved from scans with my old Canon scanner (that does not work with Windows 7) open fine in Photoshop but images from the new scanner will not open (message says 'Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop').
    Can anyone help with this? I always thought tifs were tifs and didn't realise there could be different 'versions'.
    I do a lot of detailed artwork and it's important that I can work with tif files (and preferably with this new scanner!!)
    Thanks for your help

  • Crashing Photoshop CS5, other programs in Adobe Elearning Suite working fine

    Hi,
    I really need some help. I have tried troubleshooting, updating, reinstalling all to no avail. 
    After a long time of having no problems, I cannot get Photoshop CS5 to work, neither the 32 or 64 versions. I get the same error everytime: right after the splash screen and after the software opens, I get a non descriptive error and windows shuts the software down. The error is: "An unexpected and unrecoverable probelm has occured. Photoshop will now exit."  The event viewer indicates it is the MSVCR90.dll but I have read that is just generic. The event viewer says this: "
    Faulting application name: Photoshop.exe, version: 12.0.4.0, time stamp: 0x4d9d8f8e
    Faulting module name: MSVCR90.dll, version: 9.0.30729.6161, time stamp: 0x4dace4e7"
    I am on a windows 7 machine, totally current in all updates.
    I have updated the adobe products as well. They all open fine (in the elearning suite: Captivate, Flash, Bridge, etc. Also I have Illustrator and Acrobat 9.0 which also open fine.). 
    Additionally I updated my Geoforce GTX 550 ti video card driver and the canon printer drivers. 
    I uninstalled a third party plug in (the only one I know of that I have installed) called "perfect resize" then reinstalled it, then updated it.
    I uninstalled the elearning suite and reinstalled it, followed by updating the software again
    I have uninstalled a 3D mouse I have and unplugged it (3dconnexion) but it was working fine for a long time and not used in photoshop.
    I tried a few things listed on the Adobe forum to no avail (one person suggested disabling the scriptingsupport.8li, another suggested right clicking on the exe to open as administrator, another suggested trying to boot up in safe mode)
    I have macfee on this machine and have scanned it for viruses, nothing was found
    None of this has worked. 
    Anyone else have a solution out there? Many thanks in advance. 
    PS I tried to "chat" with an adobe rep who eventually said that I couldn't get help from them since there are newer photoshops out now, the response was "I am sorry for your loss." 

    Also I seem to be having troubles with the updating software stalling out. 
    Any help on CS5 crashing and the solution would be greatly appeciated! 

  • Photoshop cs5 won't load, start or open

    I have a 32 bit windows vista os. I used to have Master collection cs3. I installed photoshop cs5 stand alone on top of it. It worked for about a month then one day when I clicked the Ps icon I was asked what program I wanted to start photoshop in, The same thing happened for dreamweaver cs3 and photoshop cs3.
    I ran a malware scan and when I tried to open photshop it said my license had expired.
    I took ps5 and all the cs3 programs off and did a clean install of ps5. Photoshop said it was a successful install. Now when i click the ps5 icon the hour glass/circle spins for a couple seconds, then stops and no program comes up.
    The adobe bridge and lightroom 3 work.
    I can't open the ps cs5 by file association or through adobe bridge either. It's like everything is there and ready to go but adobe doesn't want me to use the program that i bought a month ago.

    how do i get an event log for the event of not opening

  • Problems with pixel bender toolkit 2.5 for photoshop cs5

    hi, i just installed the pixel bender toolkit 2.5 and i am trying to use it on photoshop but it won`t appear on the filters menu, and there should be a folder named Pixel Bender Files in the photoshop cs5 folder but there isn't any.. so what is going on???

    It will NOT work, PB has been totally ruined.
    So what I did was to upgrade to PS CS6, and its there in the filter menu.
    I didnt get back to this forum till today, and sorry I didnt get the info to post ready.
    Ive used the oil paint filter a lot since, its worth the upgrade to PS 6. But its nasty of them to take stuff out that we like to make us spend more $.
    So, Warning,,,,,Im going OT here,,,,,,Apple has stripped out some of our old and favourite things when we upgrade to the new OS 10.9(Mavericks), and we are very unhappy with what they have done. Ive found some workarounds, but the really eyecandy stuff is gone from our screen savers, Mosiac, and some other things.
    Is this cost cutting? Nope, not with AAPL, they have penty of dough.
    Is this just youngsters in the app developing work who have not used the older and nice stuff?  We dont know, but what ever you do, DO NOT give your older Macs away, as you will lose some of this fun stuff, and Adobe better learn too, as we oldsters use the old stuff. I dont like the Cloud prices either, so I upgraded all my Adobe stuff before they did that.
    And do NOT get rid of the old PSE programs, as you can scan paper money and I use it for my web page background images, but I do distort it.
    Im getting off into a rant, so I must stop, but I think these companies whoare making lots of money and have good products, should not mess with the good stuff. Hang on to your old programs and your old computers!
