What software do I need to just scan documents?

New computer. Old one had pre-installed Adobe. I want to subscribe to the software that will just allow me to scan. I don't need to edit documents. The very basic software. Any help will be appreciated.

Almost all scanners come with software to scan documents. Just use the software for the scanner. You can also use most graphics applications, even free ones like Irfanview, as long as the scanner driver is installed. Even with Acrobat, the scanner driver has to be installed. Acrobat simply uses the scanner software.

  • HT1338 What software do i need to download for my new HP Photosmart 5510 ePrinter to work on my new iMac

    I have just bought a new HP Photosmart ePrint printer. I could not download the software on to my new iMac. What software do i need to down load from HP to make my printer compatible with iMac.

    With reference to this article from Apple that lists the models of printer drivers available from Apple for Lion and Snow Leopard, there are a couple of HP Photosmart 55xx printer drivers in the list. So if all was well with your  iMac then the driver should be downloaded and installed when you connect to the printer. With this not happening you can try installing this HP Driver update. It contains all the HP models in that driver list - that's why its over 500MB - and it may be just what you need to get this printer connected.

The movie is not in format the QuickTime Player understands. you may need to install additional software to open this type of file.  So what software do i need to transfer the video to my mac, i can see the video when the handycam is connected to my mac, but i cant drag it to the desktop.

    To see them, I recommend VLC. It doesn't transfer videos, but you can see it

  • What Software Do I need to add Chapter Markers

    I've got a 55 min QuickTime movie file that I'd like to simply add Chapter Makers as well as setup a Chapter Menu selection at that beginning.
    Also, I'd like to be able to render this file to a format that will playback on any DVD player.
    To be able to edit/sweeten the audio and/or video is not a priority....I'd just need to add chapters so to divide up this one-long-movie into...well...chapters.
    What software do I need that will do this?
    Thanks.
    Mac 17" MacBook Pro
    Mac OSX 10.4.10
    Processor: 2.16 Ghz Intel Core Duo
    Memory: 2 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM

    You can add chapter markers using Quicktime Pro if you don't need to edit the movie.
    You can find detailed instructions in the Apple document Chapter Tracks.
    These instructions teach how to add a chapter track, containing your chapter titles and timecodes, to an existing quicktime movie without using iMovie or FCE or other editing software. No codec, compression, or conversion is applied to your video and audio, which are left alone. Only a new text track with adequate formatting is added.
    A few additional notes:
    - you need Quicktime Pro (30$)
    - you must correct a couple of points in the Apple instructions:
    a. in step 3. you have first to +enable the text track+ in the Property Window of the movie, and then you can use the Text to Text option in the Export Menu (otherwise no Text to Text option is made available).
    b. step 10 must be corrected as follow: +"Open Show Movie Properties from the Window menu, choose the *Video Track* ( not: new text track). Choose Other Settings then choose your Text track in the Chapters popup"+

  • What software do i need to convert AVCHD mts/mts2 files to import to iMovie

    What software do i need to convert AVCHD mts/mts2 files to import to iMovie

    As Kirk says, if you have your camera, you can attach it directly.
    Further, if you preserved the entire file structure of your camera (not just the .mts files, but also the folders on the camera), then you can import from that via FILE/IMPORT FROM CAMERA ARCHIVE.
    When you import from a camera, it is recommended that you keep a camera archive so you always have the originals available.
    If you have the .mts files out of context, you will need a third party app to convert. Two that I know of are ClipWrap and Voltaic HD. You should convert the files to Apple Intermediate Codec. And then use FILE/IMPORT/MOVIE.

  • What software do i need to open downloads, what software do i need to open downloads

    For most Mac programs you download in the .dmg format just double clicking them will open them. For .zip files you can use a tool like Stuffit Expander. There are other tools listed here. Hope this helps. P.S. for .Pdf files just right click on the file open with Preview. Most text files can be opened with Text Edit, again right click open with....Text Edit. And as Kenneth is saying if you open a text file and you see code, the file wasn't meant to be opened, if you need to edit that file with a program like Text Wrangler, or SubEthaEdit.

  • What Software do I need???

    Hi folks,
    I'm new to BO so to start from scratch I'm trying to figure out what desktop Software I have to put on my workstation to unleash the full power of BO, work with our BO server and get the SAP Best Practice for BI up and running. I downloaded the following stuff from service.sap.com:
    - Xcelsius 2008
    - Crystal Reports 2008
    - BO XI 3.1 Edge
    I kind figured these would be the most recent releases.
    I first installed Xcelsius, then Crystal Reports. When installing BO XI 3.1 it gave me an error that it can't be installed with Crystal Reports already there. So I uninstalled Crystal Reports 2008 and installed BO XI 3.1 . The SAP Best Practice BI scenario comes with a lot of .rpt files which are Crystal Report Project files as of my knowledge. But I can't install Crystal Reports anymore. I guess because of BO XI 3.1
    So I wonder what software I actually need. I haven't found any source that clearly states what applications to install for what reason and in what version. It would be really great if someone could bring some light into this!

    Hi Robert,
    You can install a Virtual station software like VMWare and stuff like that.
    After installing VMWare please allocate some space for this and then install the OS with that then you can install the Crystal reports.
    Where you can use the Crystal reports and BO at the same machine.
    Hope this helps...

  • HT204382 what software do i need to play movies on avi file . have connected a external memory disk and all the movies are in avi format.

    What software do i need to install in order to be able
    to play movies in .avi format.
    have connected an external memory and all the entertainment
    files are in .avi format.
    Ansver i get : does not support

    VLC is a good choice. While I don't know if it will play your files, Perian is a helper app for Quicktime which allows you to play a lot of things in the Quicktime Player.
    There is also Flip4Mac which allows you to play windows media files in Quicktime.
    Finally, note that the extension on a video file doesn't really tell you what you need to play it. The .avi, .mpg, etc. is only the wrapper around the actual video. The video is encoded by some means and needs to be decoded. The video inside the .avi can be encoded in one of many different schemes.
    VLC, Perian, Flip4Mac, and many others, are all able to decode various flavors of encoding. Having all of those in your toolbox will help to allow you to play most of the things you'll find.

    It appears you have a iPad Mini and a MacBook. Assuming that, this

    If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.

  • What software do I need to manage my itunes on my HP laptop

    What software do I need on my HP laptop to be able to go into itunes and manage my phone, as far as pictures, and calendar, and such?

    To start off with, you will need to download iTunes. Make sure that you download the correct version, Windows, and if you have 32-bit or 64-bit. Pictures taken with the iPhone are imported to the computer via Scanner and Camera Wizard in Windows, or can also be copied via Windows Explorer in Computer. Photos are then synced to the computer via iTunes by selecting a folder on the computer that contains photos and they are copied to the computer.
    Calendar has to be handled by a supported application. That can be Outlook 2003 or 2007. Other choices include using Google calendar, MobileMe,etc. The latter allow for OTA syncing of calendar. Contacts require a supported application as well, those include Outlook 2003 or 2007, or Windows Address book in Vista, or Windows Mail in Windows 7. You also have the option as above for Google or MobileMe.
    Information about what you might want to use is found on the Apple website and descibes the supported applications.

  • What software do I need to purchase/subscribe?

    I'm planning to do the $143.88 subscription for PLUS on FormsCentral.  I will be creating probably no more than 15 forms per year.  I will need to create forms, maintain them, do reports and gather data on membership information, registration of events/conferences and simple surveys.  What software do I need to purchasein addition to my yearly subscription on FormsCentral? Adobe Acrobat X? Adobe FormsCentral?  I'm not getting a clear picture on what is necessary as I read through the site.  I may need to have access to maintain the forms on both my laptop and my desktop.
    Thanks,

    Hi Mike;
    You don't need anything in addition to the subscription to FormsCentral.  If you want to distribute your forms as PDF as well as (or instead of) on the web you might want Adobe Acrobat XI so you can further edit the PDFs, but that is not necessary and is really up to your needs.
    If you were to consider Acrobat you should look at this subscription "Acrobat Plus" which gives you Adobe Acrobat XI on a subscription basis plus some great online services including FormsCentral: https://www.acrobat.com/acrobatplus/en/home.html
    When you use FormsCentral in a web browser you can access it from any computer or laptop and have access to all the same data, one of the great things about a SAAS (software as a service).  The one exception to that is in the Acrobat Plus subscription you get the desktop application of Acrobat to install which would only work on two computers, the included services would be available from any computer.
    Thanks,
    Josh

    Copy what kind/type of DVDs?  For non-copy protected DVDs you can use Disk Utility (in the Applications folder) to make a disk image of the DVD disk and then burn it back to a disk.

  • What software do I need to install to play some games MacBook Pro Mid 2014

    Hello, what software do I need to install to play some games - MacBook Pro Mid 2014. Games like : Alan Wake, Assassin's Creed, Boarderlands 2, FarCry series, Crysis, etc.

    Assassin’s creed II and Borderlands 2 are in the Mac App Store.
    The other’s don’t appear to be ported to OS X. You’d have to install Windows in one of the various ways, Bootcamp (native boot) or Virtualization (VMWare, Parallels, VirtualBox). Games under Virtualization probably don’t run well.
