Unable to see scanner using PhotoShop CS for Import

Epson Perfection 48970 Scanner worked perfectly with iMac using MAC OS 10.6.8 and Photoshop CS. But that iMac was traded in for a new iMac, and now using MAC OS 10.8.5. PS CS is now inoperative for the upgraded operating system. Now working with Macbook Pro, MAC OS 10.6.8, and scanner works perfectly with the laptop, but NOT with Photoshop CS. The Epson doesn't show in the import mode, but the HP Officejet Pro 8500 does, which is a poor scanner at best. I have looked for the answer to this problem, but unable to solve the problem. I don't want to buy an upgrade version of Photoshop CS; I just want to covert some 35mm slides to paper photos, etc.

Thank you Rave for your reply to my communication dilemma between Photoshop and my Epson printer. In my original statement, my emphasis was on declaring that my older MAC, the Macbook Pro, would continue to operate with MAC OS 10.6.8, therefore Photoshop CS should “see” my Epson Perfection 4870 just like it did on my older iMAC, which also operated under MAC OS 10.6.8.
I finally withdrew from trying to upgrade whatever is required to have Photoshop CS recognize my Epson. Instead, I concentrated today on updating the Macbook Pro with software from Epson to successfully begin scanning my slides at 1200 and 2400 dpi, and saving the scanned images in tiff files. I will do image enhancement by using Adobe Photoshop CS, which is operational on my Macbook Pro, MAC OS 10.6.8. My biggest problem was that I was defiant in getting Photoshop to see my Epson…
I know there is a way to make Photoshop happy to shake hands with the Epson, but time is a factor for me…
Thanx again.

  • I work for a funeral home that has used Photoshop CS2 for years.

    I work for a funeral home that has used Photoshop CS2 for years.  Within this program, we were able to upload a background "file" with themes - i.e., spring flowers, fall leaves, etc.  We would scan in pictures given to us by the deceased's family and "place" these on top of the background slide.  We then used a software program, Nero, to create a slide show with music to play during the viewing.  I've spent some time looking over the products and do not see one that will allow us to continue this very simple practice.  I would appreciate the opportunity to speak to someone about this.  Thank you.

    Newer versions of Photoshop have new feature that CS2 does not have. However CC 2014 like CS2 does not have a slide show with sound feature.  I have a Windows 7 Pro system. Have CS2, CS6, CC and CC 2014 installed.  You need and Updated CS2 Installer to install CS2 on windows.  CS2 is a 32 bit Photoshop there is no CS2 version that will run on new Mac computers their 64 Bit OS offered no 32bit options.
    A $10 a month subscription will keep up to date with the latest Photoshop.  Your other option is to buy CS6 for $700.  CS6 is no longer supported it just marketed as is.

    There is no free version of CS2.  There is only a special version of CS2 available for people who purchased it and need to reinstall it.

  • Photoshop shuts down when opening an image (PS CS Mac OSX 10.4.11) I'm using Photoshop CS for my Mac

    I'm using Photoshop CS for my Mac (OSX 10.4.11) and photoshop suddenly stopped working.
    Initially install went real well and it worked for long time great.  Suddenly photoshop stopped working and refused to start. When trying to  start the photoshop, it loads application first and as it used to open  the file I had requested, now it shuts down with error message.
    I have tried to reinstall the photoshop with no luck. Always same problem.
    Can you help me with this annoying issue?
    I purchased this software from Apple store in Century City Loas Angeles, so it should be real deal and no blackmarket stuff.
    Cheers,

  • Do I need adobe CC subscription for using photoshop touch for ipad

    Do I need adobe CC subscription for using photoshop touch for ipad?

    No, Photoshop Touch is a different software and isn't part of Adobe's Creative Cloud (CC) series of software you can get with their monthly subscription.
    Photoshop Touch is a mobile version of Photoshop you can get for just $9.99, and then you'll have it for life.
    It's a great, must-have tool in my opinion, but it's very limited and won't give you all the things you would get with a regular Photoshop desktop-version, like the one you get when you subscribe to Creative Cloud.

  • Anyone using Photoshop Elements for Fashion Design

    Hi,
    I'm looking for software to help me in the Fashion Design Industry. I want to use it for my sketches.   I am a beginner when it comes to Fashion Design and have no experience using Photoshop software.  I had read somewhere that Photoshop Elements is a less expensive version of Photoshop.  I read that it does 90% of what Photoshop does without the higher end pre -press printing capabilities.  I also read that there is a book that will help you with the other 10% to achieve the full Photoshop capabilities.
    1a.  I would like to know is anyone using Photoshop Elements for Fashion Design?
    1b.  If yes, please explain in details what exactly are you using it for?
    2a.  Is there more than one version of Photoshop Elements?
    2b.  If so, what version do you recommend?
    3.   How easy is it to use?
    4.  Do you know of any books you can recommend that will help me with using the software for fashion design?
    5.  If you don't feel Photoshop Elements is the best choice, then what other software would you recommend?
    Thanks

    I've never used PSE for fashion design, but there is only one flavor of elements, not a variety of different versions. I would wonder about using it for this because it could make a lot of difference if you need to create output in CMYK form (for print) or to softproof (neither of which is available in PSE). You also can't create composite layers in Elements.
    I like Elements a lot, but I would not say it's 90% of Photoshop, more like 70% and I would expect that people would use Illustrator rather than PS for most things to do with creating illustrations. Also, there is no book that can make PSE into PS, although you can extend what it can do, but Adobe has deliberately crippled certain features in PSE.
    I would say we need to know what you need a program to do to be able to give you any useful kind of advice. If you need to be able to draw vectors and paths, PSE is not a good choice. If you just need to sketch, it's fine.

  • Photoshop does not see scanner...can't import scanned images

    I recently migrated from Windowx XP (32 bit) to Windows 7 (64bit). On the xp computer, I installed the driver for my epson V500 photo scanner, and when go to File--> Import, there is an option to import via espon scanner. However, in Window 7, with Photoshop CS4 64 bit installed, the installed scanner does not show up on the import menu. I don't know how to get it to see the scanner as it does on my XP machine. I tried copying the photoshop plugins/import-export folder from the xp machine to photoshop (64)/plugind/import-export folder, but that didn't make a difference.
    I really need the scanner to be visible inside photoshop. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    If you are talking about 64 bit TWAIN there is none, and probalby will never be one.  Too many techincal problems.
    Most advise you scan with the scanner software and save to a location.  Many like this better as it does not tie up PS when scanning.

  • Can I use Photoshop brushes for commercial purposes?

    Can I use photoshop brushes ready for commercial use in the design of pattern?
    For example, brush called "Grass" or ""Drop Leaves"?
    Thanks for your reply.

    Yes, brushes are yours to use in whatever way you see fit.

  • I don't use Photoshop - looking for software with similar functionality to Photoshop's Pixelbender / Oil Painting.  Any suggestions?

    I don't use Photoshop, I'm an Aperture guy.
    I'm looking for software with similar functionality to Photoshop's Pixelbender / Oil Painting. 
    I'm especially interested in the bending of the pixels, along the lines of impressionist paintings - think van Gogh.
    Any suggestions?

    If you are interested in computer simulated drawing and painting effects, have a look at the "ToonIt!" plug-in for Aperture. This will do some of the basic work for you, but you will have to do quite a lot of editing afterwards, to turn the image into a piece of art.
    It might be easier, to do most of the drwing and painting yourself in the first place - ArtRage Deluxe is very versatile, if you have a large trackpad and pen.
    For example: Applying a light ToonIt! effect "Impressionist2": The diagonal
    cross-pattern is due to "Demo" mode - I have not yet bought the plug-in - it is rather expensive:

  • Anyone familiar with using Photoshop Elements for Flash site design?

    l am seeing a tutorial using ''elements'' and wonder if l can simply use PhotoshopCS4?
    lf so, is the process similar or not to using elements?
    thanks

    Hi,
    You can use Photoshop CS4.  The process is the same but Photoshop CS4 is more powerful and can do more stuff.

    Hello Sakti,
    I am also in ECC6.0 & if i see the definition of the BAdI BADI_TAX1_XTXIT_SET, "Multiple Use" checkbox is checked! What are you trying to do - trying to create an implementation?
    @Prabhu: Although the BAdI is "multiple-use", but there is not filter applied to it. Next time do your checks properly before replying
