Unable to Scan in Adobe 6 or 7

I have a high speed scanner connected to a PC and anytime I attempt to scan a document in to Adobe, I get an error message stating
"Unkown system error in call to startscan". I have tried multiple version of Adobe with no luck. I know it is a setting in Adobe as I am able to scan the document in Photoshop as well as other programs, but the needs of my users require them to use Adobe Acrobat (either version 6 or 7)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the response, but I've tried updating the TWAIN driver and scanner driver with no luck. Since it works with every other program I've tried (except for Acrobat), I'm pretty sure it's an issue with the settings in Acrobat 6/7. I've also updated with all of the service packs as well.

  • Need help setting up color scanning through Adobe 9 pro

    Unable to set-up the color scanning through adobe 9 pro,   need help!

    Obviously, FireWire is a fast connection, but for changing metadata, USB is plenty fast. Why it takes so long is anyones guess. Is it a USB 2.0 drive? Using external drives can be tricky. My father uses them for his gigantic library of almost 80,000 songs. When you have it setup properly, it works fine, but if you say forgot to have the external drive mounted when you launch iTunes, iTunes defaults the library back to your Music folder, then when you start importing, it puts in on the internal drive, then you have to go back and reset it, etc. Problem, with iTunes alone, you can only set one library, so if you want to use two drives, you will have to have one set at any given time.
    So you could set the music one first, add to the library, then set it for movies, then add those to the library. Then keep the library set to the one you use most frequently, so you don't have to always switch. Once you import all media, and iTunes "knows" where to find the files, you can play them with no problems with two drives.
    For wireless, you have a couple choices. If you have two Macs, you could keep one connected to the two drives, then with the other computer, just connect to the network and share the iTunes library so your other computer has access. If you want the music stored on a drive accessible wireless, you'll probably have to look to NAS, or some form of wireless storage. If you do that, their may even be a better third party software solution other than iTunes for managing multiple libraries.
    This is something iTunes really needs. As libraries grow, one drive just isn't enough often.

  • The wizard was unable to scan documents...

    Hi
    I'm running FM 7 and WWPSE 7 under Windows 2000. Hardware is an IBM Thinkpad with 1 GB of RAM. Have just installed Quadralay's WebWorks Publisher 7. Whenever I try to convert an FM file I am confronted with the message "The Wizard was unable to scan documents in [project]".
    A google search unearthed a document with ID 328048 in the TechNote database which pertains to this problem. Solution 2 suggested there refers to a KB document "How to establish Communication between WebWorks Publisher and FrameMaker 7" which is thought to be in the Knowledge Base of the Quadralay web site (www.webworks.com/support/).
    However, I was unable to find such a document - neither in Quadralay's nor in Adobe's KBs.
    Being totally stuck I wonder if someone out there can help me out.
    Thanx in advance
    Rolf Laeuffer, Switzerland

    Rolf:
    Where did you get the WebWorks (as distinguished from the newer ePublisher Pro) installation program?
    As a former and generally less than impressed customer of Quadralay, I recall that the installation program shipped on the CD-ROM for one of the last releases of the older WebWorks Pro was defective the day it was delivered.
    The solution was to go to the Quadralay Web site, complete a cumbersome registration process so as to acquire access to the support portion of the site, and download an updated installation program.
    At this point, however, I don't believe that Quadralay will today retroactively support any versions of WebWorks Pro. That in turn may mean that you might not be able to acquire the updated installation program.
    As Art suggested, I would recommend contacting Quadralay. Good luck -- they're not as far as I know anyone's favorite vendor...
    Cheers & hope this helps,

  • Unable to scan and communicat​e with scan function C6180 Vista Home Premium 64 bit Printing works

    I have an all in one C6180 Photosmart connected by wireless network (infrastructure). Network consists of 2-laptops, 1-Desktop and the printer.  Everything works from HP solution Center on the Compaq laptop and the Dell desktop both running Windows XP. My newest laptop is a Dell studio XPS core2   2.4ghz running Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit. I am unable to scan from the Dell Laptop using HP Solution Center nor can I scan from the printer buttons to the laptop. Solution Center opens I select "scan document" and immediately get an error message "unable to communicate with scanning device. Likewise with the copy function.  The laptop does recognize the printer though and I am able to print wirelessly.  All functions work when connected via USB so I believe the printer is fine.  I have been working with this problem since I bought the printer in 2007. I spent many hours reading hundreds of internet posts, talking by phone with HP and via e-mail support from HP.  I became frustrated and gave up for awhile but now I want to see if there are any new solutions that I don't know about. I downloaded full feature software and drivers for the 6180 from HP and performed various levels of uninstall (L1, L2, L3, L4). I also cleaned the registry with ccleaner, windows disk cleanup and manual registry deletions when allowed per HP. I have checked port settings, tried stopping HP functions is Services.Msc. The Digital monitor is currently running, however no scanner communication-computer to 6180 and no scanner communication 6180 to computer. I can print and fax from computer wirelessly. I have ran the HP diagnostic utility separately and it appears everything is fine, connection IPaddress etc. During install when prompted to run test it says the printer is connected to the network. I have tried to add a device to the network after install and get the message no wireless devices found. The scanner does not appear under Cameras and Scanners in control panel. Nor will it find the scanner when I try to add device. Firewalls and antivirus have been turned off. Still can't make it work. Suggestions please.

    Sorry about your pain.  L3 uninstall is what I recommend.  Re-install from hp.com and this time, with the printer properly attached it should flow OK.
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • Unable to scan to HP 8600 after Mavericks update

    I am unable to scan to my HP 8600 Officejet Pro since updating to Mavericks 10.9.4. It keeps telling me that it can't open a session. I have reset the printing system and downloaded and installed the printer drivers but still get the same response. I have tried using the USB connection and wireless.
    Before updating the Mavericks software, the Mac and the printer communicated with no problems. The printer works fine but cannot get the scanner to respond at all. After searching the web, all I can find is that HP are responsible for correcting the glitch but can't get a response from either HP nor Apple and have now become totally frustrated with the whole thing.

    I have the same problem. I was trying to upgrade my 3G iPhone to 4.1 and ran into problems. Then I did a right-click "Restore on my iPhone in iTunes and halfway in it just says "cannot restore this iPhone" or something to that effect and then a message pops up asking if you want to send the info to Apple and that's it!
    Need help too!

  • Restoring .dmg image from external to Mac HD in Disk Utility: "Unable to scan image (Input/output error)"

    Hi guys,
    So I've got a problem with restoring the image backup I did (using Disk Utility) of my 500GB HD on my MBP which was acting weird or maybe even crashed a few months ago. After creating the backup image and putting it on my external device, I installed Mavericks back to see if everything was alright (mainly the HD) and everything seems okay.
    I did try restoring the backup image through disk utility before installing mavericks (thus erasing everything again on the HD) AND after. But nothing..
    The whole process starts fine and then it starts scanning the image when after maybe a good 10-15min in I get a message that says that it was unable to scan the image. I tried verifying the disk(s), everything came out "OK". Also tried scanning it through Images > Scan image for Restore... with the same results.
    While searching I've seen people getting messages like "Unable to scan filename.dmg (Invalid argument)" and "Unable to scan filename.dmg
    (Internal error)" but none have (Input/output error)
    The screen grab is below.
    I also came across something about using terminal/commands but I'm not that savvy with it, especially considering that those there had issues with either mounting or trouble finding the image.
    I've also tried moving the backup image to a different external device 2TB and also the desktop because I read it may have to do with the format of the externals or maybe free space. But THEN I would get a message saying
    "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "Mac HD Backup.dmg" can't be read or written. Error code -36"
    Fyi ALL my externals are HFS+/Journaled and the backup image format was compressed.
    I REALLY don't know what to do next. Was it the wrong move to create a dmg image? Have I lost everything? Is there still a way out?
    If anyone can help, THANKS!

    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider. You may have to leave the machine there for several days.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

    Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.

  • Unable to scan and install windows updates on Win 2008 R2 server

    I've encountered some of my win 2008 servers are unable to scan and receive windows updates from SCCM 2012. Browse through the logs and found some error code related to
    0x80244023. Excerpt from the WindowsUpdate and WUAHandler is as below. Searched the net and found some workaround which is to rename the registry key
    WinHTTPSettings to WinHTTPSettingsx (by adding x at the end of the string)
    under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> Internet Settings -> Connections.
    I've did just that on the effected servers and after running again the Software Update Scan Cycle action, it is now able to scan and install the updates. My questions is, based on you guys experience, is there any repercussion (apart from enable to install
    software updates) that I could encounter in changing the registry key value WinHTTPSettings?

    Hi
    If SCCM is setup correctly and your boundaries are correct then once you deploy updates the agents will pick them up.
    Also make sure you SUP role has the FQDN set. Lastly if you are using port 8530 make sure it is open.

  • Disk Utility: after creating the .DMG (compressed image) When "scan image for restore" finishes it displays "unable to scan (internal error)". Since the process was scanning for about 1 hr is this a fake warning?

    External 500GB drive is partitioned with 400GB for Mac OS extended (journalling) and 2nd partition formatted today as "ExFAT".
    Yesterday I tried to create a disk image of my HD to no avail - this was compressed on a FAT partition. I got a warning after running the <scan image for restore> saying "unable to scan (internal error)"
    I rang Apple support who suggested formatting a partition as MAC OS extended (journalling) and choose to save the image as "read/write'. The image process stopped writing at about 200GB and then the file size jumped to 499GB (ie the size of the HD). But the process did nothing for about an hour so I foce quit disk utility (as suggested by apple support)
    My current attempt was to format the external drive again; this time with a 400GB Mac OS extended (journal) format; plus a 100GB ExFAT format partition. The new image was created after about 2.5hrs with a compressed size of 149GB. However, after running the "scan image for restore" facility I got the warning message "unable to scan filename " (internal error). The process was scanning the image file according to the progress bar - this took about hour - thus the warning is a puzzle.
    If anyone can say more about this error I would really appreciate knowing tips for using disk utility. The screen grab is below.
    "unable to scan filename " (internal error)
    thanks

    Thanks for a quick reply <baltwo>. You’ve answered that it is not a fake message!
    fyi: I thought that I would use my external Buffalo for two purposes; namely the smaller ExFAT partition for copying stuff to my win7 netbook. The larger partition was to be used as my imac image of SL. So this was my first attempt at using disk utility - the idea being to hold an image backup at another location. Plus I now have the Lion thumbdrive ready to upgrade from SL and so being cautious wanted to have a SL image backup
    Anyway I followed the apple instructions using my mac 10.6.3 install DVD but it would appear from other discussions that <unable to scan (internal error)> is not unique to me.
    I’ll get back to apple telephone support for further advice.
    I would though be grateful for an “idiots’ guide to making an image backup of my internal HD that runs SL 10.6.8
    eg should I have just one partition on the external USB drive? format it as Mac OS extended? create the image as compressed or read/write? Basically I’ll do whatever will work!!
    thanks again

    You are not addressing Apple here. If you have a problem, describe it and someone might be able to help. Just to be sure, the wi-fi on the phone will go off after the phone goes into sleep mode unless it is actively being used. This is a battery saving measure. If you are actively using the internet, and the phone is still awake, then the wi-fi should remain connected.

  • Unable to scan and email to hotmail

    yesterday i did a disk clean up not sure if this is related to this or not. i always scan, save and email to hotmail. Today it i an scan but when i try to send to hotmail address it says error unable to receive or send messages to hotmail. What is wrong?? Thanks

    Hi , Based on your description, unable to scan to hotmail, I suspect the issue is related to the Browser or your Microsoft settings. HP scan is not designed to scan to web mail, so I am not sure how much help I can be, but I will happily do all I can to assist you. What Browser are you using? Once you have determined your browser and version, please click the appropriate link below for instructions to clear your cache and cookies. Internet Explorer 11
    Internet Explorer 10
    Internet Explorer 9
    Internet Explorer 8
    Internet Explorer 7

    Google Chrome Support I don't think the Disk Clean up would have effected your ability to scan to you hotmail, but perhaps you could perform a system restore back to when it was working. I am not sure that would resolve the issue, but might be worth trying.

    I am unable to update my Adobe Flashplayer.  It refuses to accept my password, but it's the same password I use to log on to Adobe.  What gives?

    When you install or update software you will often be asked for permission to change the system. This will need your computer's administrator password, chosen when the computer was switched on the very first time. It is nothing to do with the Adobe password.
