Twain scanning software/plug-in will not open inside of PS

I am now official teed-off with Adobe’s miserable attempt at customer service. I cannot get the Twain software for my Canon scanner to open inside of Photoshop. I have been through your “Chat with an agent” and your “Call an agent’ for no avail. A “senior” tech person was supposed to call me today to settle the matter and not a peep. This is costing me a ridiculous amount of time just to get a very basic function to work.
I have a brand new install of Creative Cloud PS for a Mac with Apple’s latest operating system, Mountain Lion, and brand-new drivers for my Canon scanner and there is no reason why Adobe shouldn’t be able to get me up and going.
If Adobe expect’s me to pay a premium for their software, they should have the integrity to help me make it function properly.

Nate basically the reason your Canon software is functioning is because it is a 32-bit application and thus can reference the 32-bit TWAIN driver provided by Canon.  You can still run 32-bit applications within a 64-bit operating system.   There is no conversion occurring it is just a fact that both the driver and software are 32-bit so they are able to communicate.
Photoshop CC is 64-bit only thus it is unable to access 32-bit TWAIN drivers or plug-ins.
Curt's suggestion is a great option if you are looking for a more integrated option with the 64-bit version of Photoshop.
Please let me know if you have any additional inquiries on this topic.

  • JComboBox will not open inside of JTabbedPane

    I have a problem with comboboxes which are inside of tabbedpanes. They will not pop open to select other items stored in the model.
    I tried 1.5.0.10 and 1.5.0.11 so far. Problem is the same.
    Any Ideas ? Anybody ?
    I cut it down to the following code:
    import java.awt.BorderLayout;
    import javax.swing.JComboBox;
    import javax.swing.JPanel;
    import javax.swing.JTabbedPane;
    public class TestTabbedPane extends JPanel {
         JTabbedPane _pane;
         public TestTabbedPane() {
              super();
              setLayout(new BorderLayout());
              _pane = new JTabbedPane();
              for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
                   _pane.addTab("Tab "+i, new TestComponent());
              add(_pane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
         class TestComponent extends JPanel {
              JComboBox _combo;
              public TestComponent() {
                   super();
                   _combo = new JComboBox(new String[]{"1", "2", "3"});
                   this.add(_combo);
         public static void main(String[] args){
              TestTabbedPane ttp = new TestTabbedPane();
              QnDFrame frame = new QnDFrame(ttp);
              frame.setVisible(true);
    import java.awt.BorderLayout;
    import javax.swing.JComponent;
    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    /** Quick and Dirty Frame  */
    public class QnDFrame extends JFrame {
         public QnDFrame(JComponent comp) {
              super(comp.getClass().getName());
              this.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Files will not open inside Contribute

    Contribute users with version 3.11 are unable to open
    documents inside Contribute -- Acrobat, Microsoft, etc. All open in
    the application itself, thus leaving them unable to delete the
    file. Some have tried going in through My Computer and changing the
    Folder options, but once the PC has been rebooted, the default
    returns.
    Any suggestions.

    To browse or view Microsoft Office files (not Office 2007)in Contribute CS4:
    Make sure Contribute is closed.
    Open C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Contribute CS4\Configuration\ViewableExtTypes.txt
    Add doc,xls,ppt to the list, save & close ViewableExtTypes.txt and restart Contribute/
    It doesn't work for Office 2007 file extensions.

  • I recently bought an Epson Artisan 837 printer. I installed the driver and now Photoshop from CS3 will not open. It quits when the Twain portion of the program starts loading. Does anyone know how to fix this so my printer will work with Photoshop??

    I recently bought an Epson Artisan 837 printer. I installed the driver and now Photoshop from CS3 will not open. It closes every time it gets to the point where it is loading the Twain portion. Does anyone know how to fix this so my printer and Photoshop will work together? Thanks for any help I can get!

    You're welcome. 
    But, no, don't look to  Epson for fixes to their  driver in newer versions, and Adobe has deprecated the TWAIN plug-in.  Hoping for a solution there is futile.  That has not happened and it's never going to happen.  The consensus is that it's pretty foolish to tie up Photoshop to scan.  Honestly.
    Any improvement in the behavior of newer versions of the Epson drivers in that regard would be pure coincidence.
    You need to understand that you never, ever scan "within" Photoshop, as Photoshop has no scanning capabilities whatsoever.  When you use the Import > Twain plug-in all you are doing is blocking Photoshop while you call up the stand-alone Epson scanning software.  If you think about it, its most inefficient.
    VueScan has a pretty powerful scanning plug-in that can be called from the Impost menu—if you insist.  VueScan is not free, but it's a pretty good value, IMO.
    As for the Epson CD printing software, I have no clue.  Sorry. 

  • My Reminders app will not open. When I try to open it, quits and gives me an error message: "Reminders quit unexpectedly while using the CalDAV plug-in." My Reminders is synced with my iPod touch, and it is fine on that. How do I fix it?

    Also, the Calendar is loading very very slowly, and sometimes it quits and gives me the same error message as above.

    The problem has been fixed with the most recent OS X software update.

  • Hp officejet pro 8500 a910 software will not open

    I have had my printer installed for over 2 years on my laptop via the network (Dell with OS Win 8.1).  Recently, as in I have no idea why or what happened, I have an issue where I cannot open the software on my computer to scan a document.  
    The icon on the desktop as well as under Programs > HP is "C:\Program Files\HP\HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910\Bin\HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910.exe" -Start UDCDevicePage
    with a Start In of "C:\Program Files\HP\HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910\Bin\"  
    I suspected that the link was broken and opened the link in Windows Explorer and it would not open from there either.  Also, the icon in Windows Explorer is nonspecific and does not look like an HP icon.  
    I tried uninstalling all HP software and reinstalling it, but am having the same issue.  I cannot open the software.
    Anyone have any ideas?  Thank you!

    Hi @SandraDee1961,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that your HP Officejet pro 8500 a910 software will not open on Windows 8.1. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help you with this issue!
    I would recommend the following steps:
    Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
    Disable any antivirus programs. How to Disable Antivirus in Windows 8?
    Disable any firewall programs. Windows Firewall from start to finish.
    Create a new user account. Managing User Accounts and Logins (Windows 8).
    Reinstall the software using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows. 
    Hope this works!

  • Suddenly my imac will not open e-mail attachments. It scans for viruses. I hit continue and nothing happens.

    Suddenly my imac will not open e-mail attachments.  It scans for viruses.  When I hit "continue", nothing happens.

    The problem most likely is the antivirus application. My recommendation would be following the developers instructions, uninstall the application. Most antivirus applications tend to create more problems than they solve. The best thing you can do for your system is to run Software Update frequently and let Apple's security handle any issues. I'd also strongly recommend you carefully read Thomas Reed's Mac Malware Guide.

  • My itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

    my itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

    i think i might have a solution... i have windows vista and after i installed to latest itunes update everytime i tried to open it it would freeze. I tried everything, including uninstalling itunes and all of its components and reinstalled it numerous times. So i went to the itunes folder in my folders, not on itunes, and i deleted my itunes library and playlists. After that it worked just fine, all of my music was deleted but luckily i had my files saved elsewhere.
    I hope this helped! I know its frustrating and APPLE/ITUNES NEED TO FIX THE PROBLEM!!!!
