Why is Acrobat DC not recognizing my scanner after upgrade from Acrobat CC?

Two days ago I upgraded from Acrobat CC to Acrobat DC on my iMac (OS X 10.10.3). This seems to have rendered my Canon MP980 scanner inoperable. I get a message that the scanner driver(s) are not found. I did not delete any Canon drivers, only performed an Adobe suggested upgrade.
I see several others have experienced the same. One place I found a suggested workaround, but for me not an acceptable solution, is found in this KB article:
https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-dc-does-not-support-twain-drivers-on-mac.html
I tried to use Mac App store Updates but it is not finding any for the scanner, as suggested in the above article.
The Cannon is on a local network (Ethernet). My Macbook Pro (OS X 10.10.3) is still running Acrobat CC without any problem using the scanner.
A real solution would be appreciated.

Hi Anubha,
Thanks for your help.
In Finder ...... > Twain Data Sources I found two files, "Canon MP980 series Network.ds" (1.9Mb) and "Canon MP980 series.ds" (2Mb). Next to Kind for both it says "Application". I don´t see the word "Package" or "PowerPC" or "Universal". However, under Where, it says "Macintosh HD>Library>Image Capture>TWAIN Data Source. This is also the same information I find on my Macbook Pro (OS X 10.10.3), but still running Acrobat CC (not upgraded yet, thankfully). I can still scan using my MBP.
I was able to scan using Image Capture.
I did not have time to go through the procedure of logging in as root user.
Frankly, this seems way to complicated. There has to be an easier fix to the problem.
I also checked Canon´s website for updated driver files, but there are none for Yosemite.
Regards,
Tor-Eddie

    Might be corrupted preferences (.plist)
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.image_Capture.plist
    Click Go then move the com.apple.image_Capture.plist file to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac and your scanner and try scanning an image.

  • IPod is not recognized in ITunes after upgrade to 7.3.1

    Please help. I upgraded ITunes to the 7.3.1 version and now my IPod is not recognized in my ITunes. The USB port is working since my IPod recharged when I plugged it into the computer. I uninstalled & then reinstalled ITunes, but, my IPod is still not recognized by ITunes or my computer. I cannot find it listed in "my computer" files.
    Any suggestions as to what happened? Thanks.

    Your post solved the same problem for me. Thank you so much! And thanks to JaketheSnake for starting this thread. iTunes used to start up automatically whenever I connected my iPod Touch, but a couple of months ago it quit doing that. I didn't think much of it as I just clicked on iTunes in the dock and opened it and went on my merry way. I just figured something in the last iTunes update changed it's behavior. But lately I noticed that my iPod Touch would be in the source list while it was syncing and then it would sometimes just disappear. I was too lazy to start a thread, I guess, because I just thought someone would tell me to "restore" my iPT and I had gotten used to my little "work arounds". But now it's fixed, thanks to both of you.

  • R12 Invoice Concurrent LOV not showing any Invoice after upgrade from 11i

    Hi All,
    We had 11i instance and then we upgraded to 12i.
    Now one seeded program named "Invoice Print Selected Invoices" has a parameter called "Transaction Number Low"
    , having LOV AR_RAXINV_TRX_NUMBER ,
    does not show any record in R12.
    When i opened LOV i could see following tables:
    1. RA_CUSTOMER_TRX
    2. RA_CUST_TRX_TYPES
    3.AR_LOOKUPS L1
    We are using this value set for one of our custom object too.
    I was wondering if it is not pulling any data for seeded how it could it pull for custom objects.
    I am a newbie in R12.
    Any one has any idea why is it so , i can speed up my work and learn from your experties.
    Thanks,
    Swapnesh Parmar

    Hi
    Did you get the above sorted ? how ?
    I have a similar problem with Selected Invoice Print where the Transaction Type parameter lov doesn't show any values. The seeded value set uses ra_cust_trx_types which (in R12) is a synonym for ra_cust_trx_types_all.
    There is data on ra_cust_trx_types_all.

  • S_ALR_87012178 does not show any data after upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6

    Hi Gurus,
    We do upgrade and do testing to all functional process realted.
    When open S_ALR_87012178 in SAP ECC6 no data showed, but in old version (SAP 4.6C) data showed although we select the same parameter selection.
    Any setting missed ? or any suggestion about this issue.
    Thx in advance.
    Tri Wicaksono

    Hi Tri,
    Check the following.
    I have checked your request, and there are two 'ways' the report
    will send out the data:
    1. In a 'normal' list
    If you call the report in the 'standard' way, the data get displayed
    in a normal list. This is the standard.
    2. If the 'ACCESSIBILITY_MODE' flag is set in the user parameters.
    With this flag, the reports output is done with the ALV Grid display.
    About this ACCESSIBILITY_MODE flag,  refer to the note 929036,
    which describes the 'function' of it.

  • DocumentPresets not available in script after upgrade from CS3 to CS5

    I had a script working that created a new document using a preset in InDesign CS3.   Since I upgraded to CS5, app.documentPresets only contains [Default].  I've even output the length and count() of the app.documentPresets array.  Both result in 1.
    Here's some of the code:
    $.writeln ( 'app.documentPresets.length=' + app.documentPresets.length)
    $.writeln ( 'app.documentPresets.count()=' + app.documentPresets.count())
    for(  var q = 0; q < app.documentPresets.length; q++ )
        $.writeln (app.documentPresets[q].name);
    Output:
    app.documentPresets.length=1
    app.documentPresets.count()=1
    [Default]
    The presets clearly exist in the UI. 
    I even tried running the script with the 5.0 DOM by including app.scriptPreferences.version = 5;  What am I doing wrong?

    I got it to work by exporting the doc preset to a file and then importing it in the script once.
    app.importFile( ExportPresetFormat.DOCUMENT_PRESETS_FORMAT, File( BASE_PATH + "nl11x17docpreset.dcst" ) );   
    I don't know why this was necessary.

  • Time machine can not access time capsule after upgrade from snow leopard to mountain lion

    Two days ago I upgraded my 2009 17" MBP from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. That evening my time capsule/time machine combination worked fine and did an incremental backup of about 12 gigabyte. Yesterday - only one day later - the time machine backup did not work anymore.
    It appears that the system can not find the time capsule - even though it shows the remaining free space on the time capsule (so it did find it after all).
    The message is always the same:
    Time Machine can not complete the backup "Time Capsule"
    The image of the backup volume "/Volumes/Data/Pauls MacBookPro.sparsebundle" is not accessable (Error -1).
    I also can not delete the backup image on the time capsule since it is read-only. And I do not want to format the time caspsule yet since my wife's MBAir is also using the same time casule.
    I tried out all kinds of suggestions (hard and soft resetting both the MBP and the TC, entering the password again, setting the TC up again) all to no avail. No backup is possible anymore.

    Sounds like you got this message earlier:
    If so, see #C13 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
    Offhand, I don't recall anyone not being able to delete one via the Finder (but most were only backing-up one Mac, so just erased the disk).
    You may have to wait for that message to appear again (24 hours later), or you might try holding Alt/Option with the TM icon in the menubar, and select Verify Backups if it will let you.

  • MobileMe albums not visible in Aperture after upgrade from iPhoto

    I've just upgraded from iPhoto to Aperture and all went well, except that my mobileme albums aren't appearing. I published a test album which worked, but my existing ones don't appear.
    I've read on another thread that a dodgy character in an album name caused a similar problem but I can't see anything that looks odd in my mobileme album names.
    Any ideas?

    I had the exact problem and found the solution here.

  • Lion does not recognized HP Scanner

    Lion does not recognized HP Scanner.  Lion initially recognized the scanner and it worked perfectly for months.  All of a sudden communications with the scanner stopped. I have checked the USB cable and it is working properly.  I am using Bootcamp and when I boot in Windows the scanner and computer (iMac) work perfectly.  I have downloaded, removed and reinstalled the HP software and update for Lion. When I go into System Preferences > Print/Scan, It sees all other printers and scanners including another HP printer scanner.

    Hi.
    what's your printer/scanner model #? If RRFS' suggestions fail to resolve your issue: try removing the HP drivers from /Library/Printers folder then with device connected directly to your computer, check for software updates, this will push HP software/drivers to your system - install them.
    "do not install drivers from printer/scanner disc"
    After installation, make sure the devices, both printer and scanner show up in system preferences > printers - try scanning. Also check with a native Application like image capture, see if its recognizing your scanner.

  • Why is my phone not recognized as my device?

    When I plug in my phone in the computer to charge or update apps, my phone is being recognized as another phone name or device in our household. In ITunes under devices is shows my name to my phone. Just not sure why the computer is not recognizing my name with my phone in devices. Does it matter or should I be concerned?

    Try resetting the the iPod Nano.  For how to reset see the appropriate section of:
