Scanning a photo with my printer into Elements 8

I know I have done this before, but now it's not working and I can't figure out why. The printer and computer talk to each other just fine for printing jobs. But when I try to scan something, the printer says "wireless or USB not connected", and Elements 8 says "No device detected". I tried hooking up with a  USB cable and still got the same error messages. The printer is an HP Photosmart C4385. Any ideas?

Drag the photo onto the PSE desktop icon.

  • HP Officejet 6500A How do I scan a document with multiple pages into one file?

    HP Officejet 6500A Plus e-All-in-One Printer - E710n
    Windows 7 (64 bit)
    How do I scan a document with multiple pages into one file?  My old printer (psc 2110) asked after each scan if I wanted to scan another page.  At the end I had one pdf file with multiple pages.
    This new one creates one file for each page and I cannot find a way to create one pdf file with multiple pages.
    This question was solved.

    Hi mpw101,
    If you load the papers into the ADF - Automatic Document Feeder, and then select Document to PDF then they will all be scanning into one file. Let me know if this works for you?

  • Can no longer print selected iPhoto photo with HP printer

    iPhoto 09. Cannot print selected iPhoto photo with HP printer. I select the photo from iPhoto Library, go to File>print. The screen for Print comes up with another one on top of it that is blank but with text "Print...Processing 1..OK".  Clicking OK prints from that screen "Print, Processing page 1" (on correct 3x6 photo paper in black!).
    I have run Apple Software Update. Run Permissions with problems (one: "Permissions differ on Library/Printers/h...". Have reinstalled iPhoto which has left one icon on Dock and 3 on desktop: iPhoto 07-27-19.app; iPhoto.app; iPhoto Library that I don't know what to do with with them, so just use the one on the dock which opens iPhoto Library.
    Believe I read that after reinstalling iPhoto, a plug-in (possibly third party plug-in for HP?) must be installed. I have updated my HP printer to latest driver.
    Would you advise how I can print photos in my iPhoto Library again, and also get those iPhoto icons off my desktop which only confuse me.  Thank you for your prompt attention.
    Out-of-patience Great Gramma

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • How to print boderless photos with 6525 printer from Windows 7

    Regardless of whatever setting I use with the 'Advanced' print menu in Windows or within Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, I STILL get a border around every print. I've even set 'Custom print size'  in Photoshop to the full 7 x 5"- and the on-screen preview image shows the paper size correctly filled without a border - but the printer still gives a border, like it or not!
    HELP!!!

    Hello Suffolkman,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that you are trying to print a 5x7 borderless photo with the Photosmart 6525, but it will not despite the setting you have entered.
    The 5x7 paper does support borderless, I was able to print one fine. You mentioned applying this under the Advanced setting, was this the area?
    If not, you can access this by right clicking on the printer from Devices and Printers, then Printer Preferences.
    Have you tried to print the photo from Windows Photo Viewer?
    Also, the HP Print and Scan Doctor is a great to you can utilize to ensure the drivers and software are functioning as they should.

  • Scanning old photos with Iphone

    I bought my first Apple product yesterday which was the Iphone 4. I want to scan old pictures with it and store them into the photo store/shop. Can I do this? It was a reason that I bought. Otherwise I love the phone and Siri.

    Bill,
    There are some scanner apps for the iPhone:
    http://appadvice.com/appguides/show/document-scanners-for-the-iphone
    I've not used any of them, but they're mostly geared toward creating records of written documents.  I think that they'd produce less than desireable resulty with photos.
    I've done a lot of scanning of old photos and slides myself, but I do it with flatbed scanners connected to my iMac.

  • How can I scan a photo from the printer and place it in i photo?

    How can I scan a photograph from the printer and place it in i photo?

    Scan the document as you normally would.
    Click Save and look for a format or option to allow you to save as a JPEG file. (The normal format is probably set to PDF)
    Seve to your desktop location or to a scanned items folder if you normally scan to that desitnation
    Drag the JPEG file onto the iPhoto icon on the dock and release the mouse key
    Once you have imported the image into iPhoto, you can delete the file on your desktop or in the scanned items folder if you prefer

  • Help with importing files into elements catalog?

    I recently downloaded HD home video's to my computer and when I open Pre elements 9.0 it gives me the message saying new files have been downloaded since last launch of elements organizer. Elements will now import these files into a catalog. it starts and listed the mov file but is stuck and will not respond.
    Any idea's?

    jsguild
    What is the format of these HD home video's that you are trying to import into Elements Organizer 9?
    Try importing one of them into a Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 new project and determining if a copy of the video gets automatically placed in Elements Organizer 9.
    More later.

  • Can I scan  line art (B&W drawings) into Elements and then fill them with color?

    In Photoshop CS I could do this. Can this be done with Elements? All I see under "IMPORT" is importing from a camera. Can I import something I have scanned as well?

    I see you’re in Tiger and I’m running Leopard. If I remember correctly, in Tiger it’s something like Print > PDF > Quartz Filter > Gray Tone. In Leopard, it”s
    Print > PDF > Open PDF in Preview > Save As > Quartz Filter > Gray Tone.
    If Quartz Filter doesn’t directly follow PDF there may be a menu that says Filter and then Quartz Filter. My memory, to quote Henric, is “porous.”

  • Brown tint to B&W photos with HP printer

    I have Aperture 3.1 and have the printer proofing set up with my HP C6180 printer. The problem is that I scan a B&W photo and it shows up in the preview with a brown tint and prints that way (colors match ok), but the thumbnail in the bottom has a true B&W look to it. This is what I wanted - a true B&W photo, not one with a brown tint to it. I used the B&W setting to make it B&W but I cannot get rid of the brownish tint at all. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help!

    It would depend on what exactly you were trying to treat...
    I'm not at my system, but I ran some prior tests and was able to select a range of grayscale to affect, and then you could use mattes or masks to further isolate specific areas/ranges.
    Might take some work, but that's what it's all about, right...finding a creative solution to a given challenge?

  • Scanning from all-in-one printer to Elements

    I have a Dell 4000 desktop computer, running Windows 7, 32-bit version, an Epson Stylus SX515W all in one printer/scanner etc, and Photoshop Elements 6.  I am told that I cannot scan from my Epson scanner to Elements 6, and that I will need Photoshop Elements 10 to do this.
    1. Is this correct?
    2. If so, do I have to buy a full version of Elements 10, or can I buy an upgrade?
    3. If only an upgrade is needed, what is it called, what will it cost and where can I download it from?
    4. If I have to buy the full version of Elements 10, will I need any other software to get it to scan images from my Epson Stylus SX515W?
    5. Where do I have to look to find your reply?
    Best wishes

    Hi Nick,
    First of all I would like to inform that PSE 6 is not tested on Win 7 and is very old version.
    In order to scan  from PSE, you will need Twain plugin which is required to scan from within Adobe Applications.
    To check if you already have twain or not, follow this :
    Navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 6.0\Plug-Ins\Import-Export\
    If you find a file called "Twain", then you should be able to scan, if not then you have to download Twain from here : http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4688&fileID=4376
    Save the file, unzip it and then follow these steps :
    Close PSE 6.
    After that , navigate to PSCS5OptionalPlugins_Win_en_US\PSCS5OptionalPlugins_Win_en_US\Optional Plug-Ins\Win32, here you will find Twain_32.8BA file
    Copy this file and then paste under  : C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 6.0\Plug-Ins\Import-Export\
    Launch PSE 6 and check if you get the option to scan under File >> Import menu
    If the above solution doesnt work, then you may have to ugrade to PSE 10.
    The price for upgrade is $79.99 and full price is $99.99
    You can purchase full and upgrade both from Adobe.com website
    Thanks,
    Baljeet

  • Can't download photos from my camera into Elements 9.0

    Have Elements 9.0 which I just installed in October.  I cannot download photos from my camera .  On the ORGANIZE workspace I see no FILE, Get Photos, Help, Edit or even how to download the patches to make it current 9.0.  I seem to be missing some critical menu's.  I used Elements 4.0 for a number of years and it worked just fine.  I've wasted a lot of time and it is not clear to me that the situation I have has ever been encountered by anyone else.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Good questions and thanks for trying to help me out.  I’ve evolved through part of my problem but I know more than I understand.  Here is what I’ve done and what I’ve observed:
    1.  The menus in the top row left side are missing.  That is FILE, EDIT, FIND, VIEW, WINDOW and HELP are nowhere to be found.  The right side of the top row is OK (Sign In, Create New Adobe ID), Undo, Redo, Display, Home and –?X)
    2.  I then installed Elements 9.0 on my wife’s new Window 7 computer.  It looks just fine.  Everything is as it should be.
    3.  I had an idea a shifted the my computer from medium (125%) fonts to small (100%) fonts.  Everything looks fine.  I went and rechecked my wife’s notebook and it has medium (125%) fonts.  So my Windows computer with 18” monitor will not display PSE correctly at 125% but my wife’s notebook will!  It is hard to read, I’m 75, but it works.
    4.  I have no idea what causes the problem but I can use PSE just fine if I don’t mind straining to read.  So it looks like I have a solution to my original problem.
    5.  I tried to email a photo from each computer and that doesn’t work.  Separate problem and I find that others have had the identical problem.  At least I can describe the problem well enough to find all sorts of responses on the Internet. 
    Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.

  • How can I process a raw Sony photo with ARW extension in Elements or Lightroom?

    I have a new Sony camera and I like to shoot in raw format.  Elements and Lightroom do not appear to recognize the Sony ARW extension. What do I need to download to make this work???

    You need camera raw 8.3 for your camera - Sony DSC-RX10. It is only compatible with PSE12 and LR5. Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.3
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.3
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:
