Want to scan multiple photos on HP c309 series as individual files; the box to allow is greyed out.

I'm using an HP Photosmart C309A All in one.  I use Windows 7. I have multiple photos to scan and want them to scan as individual files.  I did that previously several months ago with no problem.  The box which should allow me to do so is not available to check.  It is grayed out.   
Anything to try would be appreciated.

Hi @Mamusworld,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that you want to scan multiple photos on your HP Photosmart c309 as individual files, but the box to allow it is greyed out. I am happy to help!
This sounds as if there is a driver/software issue with your printer software. I would recommend the following:
Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Re-install using the HP Print and Scan Doctor. 
Hope this helps, and have a great day!

  • When i try to sync photos from iPhoto to my iPad using iTunes,  the "Selected Folders" option is greyed out with only the "All Folders" option available, how do i change this?

    When i try to sync photos from iPhoto to my iPad using iTunes,  the "Selected Folders" option is greyed out with only the "All Folders" option available, how do i change this?

    I add the keyword 'sync' to any photos I want added to the iPhone/iPad.
    Then, during the regular process of syncing the iPhone/iPad with my computer (mac), the photos with that keyword would be copied onto the iPhone, iPad.
    I've been doing it this way ever since I was shown how to; ie after I got my iPhone 2 years ago. And every time the process worked - until the last few weeks. Suddenly it doesn't do it any more.
    I believe I have upgraded software (either iTunes or iPhoto or both) during this period. I try to keep my software updated but have noticed previously that the new version often is disappointing.
    I've not tended to use Smart albums much.

  • 8620 scan- unable to scan multiple pics at same time & save in individual files

    Unable to scan multiple pictures at the same time on the glass flatbed & have saved into individual jpg files. Scans all the pics as one - one file. For jpgs under Advanced Settings - file tab. Checked but greyed out - create a separate file for each scanned image. I need to scan many pictures & I don't want to do them individually

    Hi Dhpakid,
    From the HP Officejet Pro 8620 software click on Scan a Document or Photo.
    Set the Scan Size as "Entire Scanner Glass".
    Change the Scan Sourse into "Flatbed Glass".
    Click the Advanced Settings button, Check the Auto-Crop option (if it is grayed out change the scan type into Photo) and click OK.
    Click the scan button and complete the scan, it will be cropped automatically into multiple files.

  • How to scan multiple photos into separate

    I have a hp envy 5660.  I often have to scan multiple photos and on my old printer it would show them as individual files on the scan page.  I can't figure out how to do that with this printer.  I want to scan multiple photos, have them save as individual phhotos so I can print them out on 4 x 6 photo paper.  Any ideas? Thanks!

    Hi @bird22557,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I noticed that you are wondering how to scan multiple photos into separate files with your HP Envy 5660 printer on Windows 7. I am happy to look into this scanning issue for you!  
    I would recommend to go through this how to scan guide, Scan from Windows 7 With the Full Feature HP Software for HP Multifunction Printers, you can try with HP software or without HP software. As there are multiple ways of scanning.
    For future reference, here is your printer's user guide as well, HP ENVY 5660 e-All-in-One Printer User guides.

  • Scanning Multiple Photos

    I want to scan multiple photos, one after the other. How do I do that without having to go back to the beginning each time, ie got to File/Import/WIA Support, etc

    You can scan directly into the Organizer but need to do the set-up in Prefs from the Organizer menu:
    Edit >> Preferences >> Scanner
    Then use the menu:
    File >> Get Photos >> From Scanner (Ctrl+U)
    Your scanner software will launch on top of the Organizer.

  • I have an ipad version 5.1.1. i have multiple albums in the ipad and i want to transfer some photos to my computer but when i open the ipad files via "computer" i can only see picture from one of the albums.what should i do?

    i have an ipad version 5.1.1. i have multiple albums in the ipad and i want to transfer some photos to my computer but when i open the ipad files via "computer" i can only see pictures from one of the albums.what should i do?

    You can only import photos from the camera roll into the computer. Is that the album that you are seeing?
    Any albums that you create on the device itself (the iPad that is) cannot be transferred to your computer. iPad created albums do not contain copies of your photos but merely pointers to those photos so they do not actually exist in those albums.

  • HT1040 trying to make an ibook and have 800 photos, want format of 8 photos/page, but default is not that- "create" the initial book from iphoto "album" it loads less than 800 pics and then when i change layout i have blanks.

    trying to make an ibook and have 800 photos, want format of 8 photos/page, but default is not that- "create" the initial book from iphoto "album" it loads less than 800 pics and then when i change layout i have blanks.
    if i clear the book so that it is all blanks and then try to load in the pictures i have it loses the chronology of the pictures that i had established in the album.
    is there a way to import photos into an ibook template and keep the original order of the photos without having to do them one at a time?
    also, is there a way to insert a photo rather than just dragging it? i have tried the cut and paste funciton but it doesn't seem to work, the target site doesn't seem to register with iphoto.
    many thanks for your help.

    Photos are added to book in chronological order.  So if you want to add them to a book in the order you have placed them manually in an album do the following:
    1 - select all the photos in the album.
    2 - use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option as shown here. Select any date and add 1 minute between photos.
    3 - select just one photo from the album and create a book from it.
    4 - in the book click on the Options button ➙ Book Settings button and make sure the checkbox for Auto-layout pages is unchecked.
    5 - drag the album with your book photos onto the book icon and they will be imported into the Photos tray of the book in your pre-determined order but not into the pages themselves.

    Hi @kmjamj 
    Running the Print and Scan Doctor might help. The HP Print and Scan Doctor is a free utility (tool) that helps to quickly resolve common printing, scanning and connectivity issues including but not limited to:
    Connectivity:
    USB: Verifies that the USB connection from your computer to the HP product is working correctly.
    Network: Verifies that the network connection between your computer and your network is working correctly.
    Device Status Test: Checks for device errors such as out of paper, paper jams, carriage stalls, and paper feed issues, and then provides instructions for fixing the error.
    Driver Check: Checks for missing or corrupt driver files.
    Device Manager: Checks for problems in Device Manager that would prevent printing.
    Device Online: Checks if the product has been paused or set to offline, and then sets the status back to online if necessary.
    Print Queue: Checks for and clears pending print jobs in the print queue (a log of print jobs waiting to print).
    Port Match: Checks the port settings for the HP product.
    Device Conflicts: Checks for conflicts with other drivers, such as other printer brands.
    Ink Issues: Checks the cartridges and ink levels for issues that affect print quality.
    Print Settings: Checks and adjusts the print quality settings.
    Test Print: Prints a test page for print quality evaluation, and provides options for cleaning and aligning the printhead if necessary.
    Scan Tests: Checks the scan mechanism, drivers, and registry entries.

    If that does not resolve the issue, post back and let me know if there are any symbols other than green check marks and what they are next to of course. The wrench is not always easy to spot as the wrench and the check mart are in the green circle.
    If you see only green check marks (), the tool did not find any problems.
    If you see green wrenches (), the utility identified an issue and corrected it automatically.
    If you see yellow exclamation points (), the test failed and required user action, but the step was skipped.
    If you see a red X (), follow the on-screen instructions to resolve the issue.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.

  • I've had a problem with syncing itunes, when i sync it dosent sync songs previously deleted it just greys them out, which is great but if i want to add a new video or song from my computer it wont sync it will just grey out and wont play. now all my songs

    ive had a problem syncing with itunes recently. when i delete a song on my iphone when i sync with my computer it still syncs but just greys out and is rendered useless. thats great unless i when i want to add new music or videos from my pc to my iphone it wont sync and will just grey out. i looked for solutions and one said that deleteing all your music from the usage in settings would fix it, well now when i sync all of my music is greyed out. ive tried adding all of my songs manually into my ipod instead of syncing entire library and nothing. (also when i select to sync music nothing shows up in the usage bar (normally 3 gigs)  might help) could someone please help?

    I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
    The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
    if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
    Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
    turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

  • I want to email multiple photos

    So I handed my iPhone 4 over to my mother. She took about 16 pictures of her dog. Now my mom wants me to email her all 16 photos. Using the Photos app, I can only figure out how to send one email at a time. Doing that 16 times would be a hassle.
    How can I send all 16 photos at one time?

    Thank you wjosten. Your answer was very helpful and sent me in the right direction. First I went to the camera roll, then hit the icon in the lower left corner. This sent me to a Select Photos screen. I tapped on some photos, which made some checkmarks. Then I hit Share in the lower left corner, then Email. I could only send 5 photos at a time, but 5 is enough.
    The reason is that most mail systems limit the size of a single email, typically to somewhere between 5 and 10 MB. As each photo is over 1 MB you hit the limit pretty quickly.
