Setup of scanjet 4570c and iPhoto '09
I am moving an older but working hp scanjet 4570c to a PowerMac G5 running OSX 10.5.8 to scan slides.
Whre can I get drivers for this configuration or can I scan direclty into iPhoto '09?
For drivers for the Scanner you need to check with the makers.
You can also try Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) which has some generic drivers.
Another possibility: Vuescan http://www.hamrick.com/
You can't scan directly to iPhoto. The workflow would be to scan to a folder on the desktop and import from there. Be sure to scan RGB.

Best way to deal with photos from the start? (Bridge CS5 and iPhoto)
Hi all,
I'm just learning the ropes of the whole CS5 suite, and was starting to add keywords etc. in Bridge when I realized I couldn't access the files in my iPhoto ('09) library. I've read a few threads about this issue, but haven't really found a consensus on how to deal with it.
I figure I'm in a good position to get things right from the start since I have no tags or ratings etc. in my iPhoto setup (and have only added keywords to the few pics that weren't in my iPhoto Library), and am wondering what you think is the best way to sort photos given I plan on using them in web design etc., and all the parts of my CS5 suite.
If getting the photos out of iPhoto is best what's the best way to do that? I've read suggestions to right click on the library and click on "Show Contents"- or something like that, but that does not come up as an option when I right click my iPhoto Library in Bridge. Thanks so much for your help!
Please let me know if there is any info I could give you that would be helpful in order to figure this one out.
Best,
MaraI must be far too lazy to be sure. In iPhoto if I want to move an image all I
do is click and drag from iPhoto to the desktop.
Here comes the trouble with using iPhoto and mixing applications. You have
to be sure what you do in iPhoto because you easily grab the wrong version
instead of the original.
As Tai Lao pointed out the the difference between Bridge and iPhoto in short
is open visible structure for Bridge and hidden invisible library for
iPhoto.
There may be perfect and valid reason to use iPhoto but mixing the two
workflows without thinking or knowing what you do is bound to get you sooner
or later in trouble with wrong versions of the file.
And clicking and dragging from iPhoto is easy to mistake in those versions.
1 - I used to create incredible folder/sub-folder arrangements depending upon
operating system file management to find files.
You can create whatever structure you want including a thought through
naming convention that suites your needs, if you keep doing this in Bridge
you can easily open and close folders using the folder panel, in iPhoto you
have a lot of events and albums but none as clear as in Bridge. (at least
that is my opinion...)
Also I would prefer to use a good naming convention with less folders and
subfolders instead of bad file naming and many well named folders. Also
using the metadata options description and keywords let's you easily find
the files you want but when having the need to retrieve the original from an
external disk or DVD using less folders will be quicker to find.
Since depending upon metadata keywords or star ratings I now prefer to have
all images (originals and amended) in one single folder as Bridge (or iPhoto
for that matter) can only see the images in the folder it is looking at.
Wrong, using the find option (cmd+F) you can specify Bridge to look in main
folders or entire disk, include the option to look in subfolders and you are
in business (but the first time Bridge caches it also need to index all the
metadata, that takes some time but only the first time.
2 - potential feature request for Bridge?
To have an option where Bridge can see and display images in subfolder
arrangements from the folder it is looking at.
That is already there since a view versions
Select a folder with subfolders and then from the menu view select 'show
items for subfolders'
It is still not a perfect way of functioning but it gets better every new
version, in CS5 the speed of gathering the files is very much improved.
However here is iPhoto the winner because it keeps the files in cache (or
something like that) Bridge is not the best in this behavior but it is
possible to use.
This is a bit like a restriction of OS X "All images" to all images in the
selected folder and all subfolders of the selected folder (if that makes any
sense at all)
Many users have tons of files on there system, why would you use that option
to view all if you are perfectly capable of finding the files or file types
you want in most applications (but you can also find them in OSX, you want
psd files do a search for ".psd" and you will see all the psd files on your
system.
3 - iPhoto can't really handle large files. With one event consisting of
4,500+ images weighing in at 884 MB it is zippy. Were those to be originals
at a high resolution iPhoto would probably be tediously slow and require a
folder/sub-folder arrangement which, to me, seems to undermine the importance
of managing stuff using keywords.
IPhoto is not designed to be a professional application, therefore you can't
expect behavior for this
In Bridge you have no limit of files on your system only the limit for the
cache is somewhere around 500.000 I believe. But even Bridge is not really
designed for handling that amount of files in a pleasant way.
I also don't know of an application that can do so for normal retail prices,
most users of that amount of files have custom made or customized
application that costs many thousands dollars. Bridge is in fact a free gift
when buying a Suite application from Adobe.
The file size for viewing in Bridge is by default set to a max of 1 GB but
that is for building previews you can see thumbs and small previews of
bigger files. In the Bridge preferences you can set the limit for this to
whatever you want, it only grows the cache file for previews when using many
large files.
In summary: Bridge is great for CS5 partnering on metadata, original images or
large filesizes.
I couldn't agree more!
iPhoto is great on sharing images across devices and better
still if those files are low res with small filesizes?
I couldn't disagree more...
You can do all of this using Bridge to start own created actions or with
scripts like image processor.
Do some research on Adobe TV or view other video tutorials on the web, there
are many free and good tutorials. You will learn that you can do all you
want in Bridge (and a lot more...) -
How do i scan with my Scanjet 4570c with HP Photo Creations?
i recently upgraded to OS X Lion and my Image Zone software is not supported. I "upgraded" to HP Photo Creations but this seems like it is a portal to buy pictures. I just want to scan dox and fotos. How do i do this?
anyone else experiencing problems with their ScanJet 4570c or other scanners with OS X Lion?H Shivnarc.
If your scanner is supported in OS X Lion, you should be able to scan using the built-in Preview program. Scanning is enabled by a background program called a driver. Lion is supposed to download the driver automatically if it's available. See
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3669
Said another way, HP Photo Creations doesn't have scanning functions. It's designed to help you make keepsakes with photos you've already loaded. In addition to the commerically produced products you saw, such as photo books and mugs, HP Photo Creations offers items you can print at home, such as enlargements, calendars, and greeting cards. You can see all the home-printing projects by clicking the Print at Home tab on the Catalog screen.
For further reference, here's HP's US driver download page. It doesn't currently list a Lion driver for your scanner:
www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
So, perhaps not the answer you wanted, but I hope it cleared up the background. You may find a solution by reposting your question as "Need OS X Lion Driver for Scanjet 4570c."

MSI K7N2-L usb 2.0 doesn't work with scanjet 4570c
I have a MSI K7N2-L motherboard with WINXP and SP1 that doesn't work with Scanjet 4570C if I set USB in BIOS to 1.1+2.2. Sometimes it locked up the PC or it showed streaks on the image. It worked just fine if I set to USB 1.1. Does anyone knows this is the problem with the MSI motherboard? I'm sure it was not the Scanjet since it is USB 2.0 supported, and I'd tried another Scanjet and the problem was still the same.
Quote from: Wonkanoby on 21-March-05, 21:14:07
If you are having problems with USB ports, read this topic.
besure you have only 8 wires connected no usboc
Nice topic!
But usb 2.0 DOES work with 1.3, 1.4 and 1.52 BIOSes. Only after updating to 1.5 official one of the front panel ports (not all 2) start works as 1.1 -

Saving files as Black & White Scalable or Windows Meta File using hp scanjet 4570c scanner
I have a hp scanjet 4570c Scanner that I need to be able to save or convert scans to Black & White Scalable or Windows Meta Files to use with our Engraving Machine. We had a hp scanjet 4400c that used Precision 3.1 Software and it could save a scan as Black & White Scalable. It was perfect for our Engraver until the scanner went bad. Our 4570c doesn't have an option for that. Help !

No drivers for scanjet 4570c scanner for windows 8x
no drivers for scanjet 4570c scanner for windows 8x
Sure, it's old- but, many PC accessories last a long time. This old scanner is working perfectly. I shouldn't have to junk it because HP, a multi billion dollar company doesn't want us to continue to use old accessories. I used to program- I know that it wouldn't be that big a deal to update the drivers for this old scanner to work on windows 8x.
A nation that prematurely throws out resources is a nation that will soon be second rate.
JoeYou need to provide Win7 with device drivers for all the Mac-specific hardware, just like when you tried out BootCamp. In order to do so, use the BootCamp Assistant to download the latest Windows drivers and place them on media the Win7 installer can use.
Run BootCamp Assistant, click Continue to skip initial screen. Check the Download latest Windows support... box, uncheck all others. Click Continue. Select to burn to a DVD/CD or store in an external drive (USB Flash?). Click Continue. Allow the disk image to download, may take awhile. Burn or copy the image onto media, as per your previous choice. Then, when the Win7 installer says there are no drivers, use the media you prepared to install them.
Note that the above explanation is when using the diskless world of Lion. If you are using Snow Leopard, there should be a BootCamp disk you can use and not have to wait. -
can i sync my mac pro with my mac book? i mainly want to do this for iTunes and iPhoto? I also have an iPad and an iPhone.
Do you have a local network setup either wired or wireless? If so, then have both computers connected to the network. Enable File Sharing on both computers in Sharing preferences. Select the startup drive on each computer. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and check the box labeled, Shared Folder.
You can now keep both computers in sync by using a third-party backup/sync utility that will work with a network setup such as:
Data Backup
Deja Vu
Silver Keeper
Retrospect
Super Flexible File Synchronizer
Synchronize Pro! X
Synk Pro
Synk Standard
Tri-Backup
Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

I have an iMac and a Macbook (just bought today, woohooo). I want to sync my iTunes Library and iPhoto Library on the two computers. I could just copy the libraries to my time capsule and point the programs to that location, but then when I take the Macbook on the road I won't have access to my iTunes or iPhoto library. What I want to do is sync like I do with my .Mac, but that doesn't work for iTunes or iPhoto.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Message was edited by: Bama GamblerI've done some research on the net and it doesn't look good. I think the best solution is to put the iPhoto library on the time capsule and assign the library for each computer to the file on the Time Capsule. I can then copy the library from the time capsule to each hard drive from time to time. That will mean I have three copies which is a nice backup and I can still access the photos when I'm away from the network. If I make any changes while not a home I can flag those photos and move them individually.
Two questions:
1. how would I move the photo's individually?
2. how can I setup something to automatically copy the iPhoto library down from the time capsule from time to time?
Sorry if these are stoopid questions, but I just made the switch to Macs this month.
Thanks! -

Scanjet 4570c driver - move from old Win 7 system to new Win 7 system
My scanjet 4570c works fine on my old Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit system. How do I move the driver to my new Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit system? The new system does not recognize the scanner.
This question was solved.

i am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier photo please help me to recover my photos
Well I'll guess you're using iPhoto 11:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I already have an itunes account on my laptop but have been setup on a mac and have songs that have not been purchased from the itunes store, I cannot get the songs from my iPhone onto my itunes account on the mac. how can I do this?
You copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.

Lightroom will not import my photos. It did up to a week ago. I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago). I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto. I get the following error message:
Some import operations were not performed.
The following files were not imported because they could not be read [followed by a list of the files I wanted to import]
Thumbnails show up. LR just will not import them.
Any idea what is going wrong?If the Import button is not clickable, that means that Lightroom thinks you have no new photos to import (one possible reason is that they are duplicates)
So, you need to figure out why Lightroom thinks that. The way I would do this is to search your Library module for at least one of the photos, by file name. To do this, you would follow all 4 of these steps in sequence:
Click on All Photographs in the Catalog Panel on the left of the Library Module
Turn off all Filters (Ctrl-L or Cmd-L once or twice)
Expand all stacks: Photo->Stacking->Expand All Stacks
Search for one or more of the photos using the Filter Bar (press backslash), search by File Name -
