Scanner that Works with 10.6 Snow Leopard?

Has anyone found a scanner that works with 10.6 Snow Leopard and also handles 35mm negatives & slides? My HP Scanjet 4570c is “dead in water.” HP has said they will not provide a driver update for this model.

If you, like me, are ****** off about how poorly HP is handling/not handling this scanner functionality issue then I suggest that you email the CEO, Chairman, and the Board of Directors of HP. I just finished sending my email to all of them. You can do the same by going to the web site listed below and follow the instructions on that web page. When I sent my messages I typed, "Do you care that HP is losing customers?" in the SUBJECT line of my email. I seriously doubt that this will result a solution to our problems, but at least you can let them know that they have lost another customer.

  • I want to install an old airport express, the ones which are directly plugged into the socket - but it does not work with Maverick or Snow Leopard - can I configure it with a windows pc?

    I want to install an old airport express, the ones which are directly plugged into the socket - but it does not work with Maverick or Snow Leopard - can I configure it with a windows pc?

    The Mac running Snow Leopard should be able to configure virtually any version of the AirPort Express.
    Tell us what steps that you are taking to configure the Express and what happens after each step.

    I have an older HP5550C flatbed scanner that works with 10.5 and 10.6 but not on my new iMac running 10.7. Surely there is software that will allow older scanners to work on OS10.7. My MacBook Pro runs 10.6 and the

    Although the HP Scanjet shows up in the system profile for the computer it is generic and is not configured (as in screen shot).  It also does not show up in the ;ist of pritnters, scanner when I open Image Capture.  I can't load the software that came with the printer because it is out of date so that would make it impossible to configure the scanner on the new iMac. see below:  Too bad there isn't some generic profile I could load that would cover the 5550c. I have a new all in one printer-fax-scanner but the old one can scann in slides and negatives which I have.

  • External hard-disk not working with firewire under Snow Leopard

    Hi. I have a LaCie d2 external hard-disk that has Firewire 800, 400 and usb2. I previously used it on my old (angle-poise) iMac connecting using the Firewire 400 socket. I've just a got a new mac with Snow Leopard and I thought it would we best to connect to the LaCie with Firewire 800. However when I do this, the disc mounts ok, but browsing in the Finder is really slow and copying files from the disk to the imac seems to work at a really slow rate (less than USB1 speed) if at all ! However, I switched to using the USB2 connection instead and it works like a dream. What gives ? Is Firewire in Snow Leopard buggy ??

    There's no problem with the drive.
    Maybe true, and the drive would probably work fine with Leopard. One thing that's obvious is that Apple did make changes in the way that FireWire works in Snow Leopard. Many drives and drive manufacturers work well with SL, but there have also been reports of firmware issues by Western Digital and other companies.
    Have you checked with your vendor to see if they are offering a firmware update for your drive?
    BTW, I got a new FW case a few months ago while at a Fry's electronic store. The brand new USB2 and FW400 cables worked fine. The FW800 cable did not, but another cable came to the rescue. Just saying...

  • HP c5280 won't work with airport on Snow Leopard

    I have a HP C5280 connected via USB to an airport express unit. It's worked flawlessly on Leopard, but now that I've upgraded to SL, I get a message "Unable to open printer (read failure)!". If I connect my MacBook Pro directly via USB to the printer, it works fine.
    Another oddity. My wife's Mac (still running Tiger) is also connected to the printer via our Airport network. I can connect to the printer through her computer and print out!
    I've been in contact with HP, de-installed and re-installed all of their preferences, drivers, etc., but to no avail.
    Appreciate any suggestions.

    Rick,
    Question: on your Snow Leopard machine, does your printer appear under USB printers attached to the Express?
    After all of your dealings with the drivers, preferences, etc, combined with the fact that directly connecting with the printer is successful, I suspect that the problem may lie with the Airport Express.
    Whenever I have problems with my Airports, 9 out of 10 times it has to do with a firmware issue. This is especially true when some Macs can connect, while others (running different versions of OS X) cannot.
    My advice would be to check to see if the Airport Express is running the latest firmware. I would use Airport Utility on wife's computer to access the Airport Express and run a firmware update check. Also, it may behoove you to do a hard reset after saving all of your settings and setting the Airport up from scratch (this, too, has worked for me from time-to-time; in particular, after a power irregularity in our building).
    As a quasi-side note, I have so many Macs running different versions of OS X and Airports strung together, that the easiest way I found to avoid problems similar to yours was to use one Mac (the one kept on most of the time) plugged into our office printer with printer sharing enabled.

  • External iSight mic not working with facetime.  Snow Leopard, mac mini w/ firewire v1.0.2, 800/400 firewire adapter

    External iSight camera connected via Firewire adapter 800/400 to a Mac Mini running Snow Leopard - a visual signal comes up for iChat and FaceTime, only sometimes does a video signal comes up for PhotoBooth, always no sound for any of the applications.  System Preferences "Sound" shows "Input Level" set around 75%, however only periodically do I see blue bar move, almost like a short in the cable, but the adapter is new.  Firewire firmware is v1.0.2.  Tried to use firewire updater to get 1.0.3, but updater won't update for Snow Leopard.  For being advertized as the world's most advanced OS, seems like Apple OS could at least work with Apple External iSight camera !  Any help much appreciated on fixing the missing sound.

    This means that my Firewire 400 ports on the display are no longer supported by the computer?
    They need a FireWire connection to the computer. With older computers, the FireWire cable from the display would plug in to a computer FW400 port to provide the connection. With FW800 only computers, you need the adapter.

  • Looking for a printer/scanner that works with Time Capsule

    I recently purchased a Canon MP250 printer/scanner, 1 GB Time Capsule, and two iMac's (21.5 and 27). I connected the printer/scanner to the Time Capsule USB port and it was absolutely trivial to get both iMac's to print to the MP250. My problem is that I can not figure out how to get the scanner to save scanned image files to either iMac.
    If I plug the Canon MP250 directly into either iMac, it is trivial to scan. Pressing the SCAN button on the MP250 causes the Image Capture application to launch on the iMac, and then you simply press the Scan button of the Image Capture application.
    If it is not possible to scan connecting the Canon MP250 to the Time Capsule, is there another model of printer/scanner that will work as a scanner when connected to the Time Capsule?
    Thanks,
    Carroll

    If it is not possible to scan connecting the Canon MP250 to the Time Capsule, is there another model of printer/scanner that will work as a scanner when connected to the Time Capsule?
    The USB port on the Time Capsule will only support compatible printers. It will not support other functions such as copy, fax, scan or maintenance. If you need these services, your only option is to connect the all-in-one directly to a computer.

  • Recommendations for a Scanner that works with Mac OS 10.6.4

    Hi: I bought my first iMac back in February 2010 and have really been enjoying it. However, I would like to know a good scanner to scan mostly pictures. Any recommendations are welcome.
    Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions,
    Any Scanner that supports TWAIN should work fine. Look for that when reviewing scanners. I have an HP multifunction printer that has a scanner and that works fine for me. Although if you are looking for a photo scanner then there are others perhaps better suited for the task out there.
    Here is a nice list of reviews: http://www.macworld.com/products/input_devices/scanners.html

  • I am having problems working with Mail in Snow Leopard

    I have an iMac running 10.6.8. I was having problems booting up the computer, which I was able to overcome running Applejack. Then I noticed Mail malfunctioning. Followingg describes the problems:
    1. Cannot open  "About Mail".
    2. Cnannot open Preferences; unable to check account settings.
    3. Do receive most of incoming emails. For no known reason, outgoing servers go "Ofline". So, cannot send outgoing emails.
    Will appreciate suggestions for fixing these problems.

    OK, so that's a marginal machine - dont spend TOO much on it. Solid, btu i think, for example, can;t run Lion or later OSes.
    I have not worked on a modern imac myself. I'd go to google, bing or your favourite search engine and search "hard drive replacement Imac intel" and see what you find re: instructions.
    In general though, its not all that complicated. Your manual may in fact tell you how to access it mechanically.  If you have, as i think you do a "SATA" (serial ATA) hard drive, just buy one, open it up, remove the old, plug in the new and close it.
    Of course, first do a complete abckup and MAKE SURE YOU CAN BOOT FROM THE BACKUP.
    A drive shoudl be < $100.  One of the most helpful, althoug not chepaest vendors, is OWC (Other World Computing). They can actually ehlp you with instructiosn and what works in your model.  If oyu have questions, i suggest using a hgih service vendor such as them.  no affiliation.
