Xerox - 4800 one touch scanner not recognised by my mac mini ???

HI I have just moved to Mac from Windows. Previously I used a Xerox - 4800 one touch scanner, I plugged it into a free usb port on the back of the mac mini and nothing.
Where on the system can I see if the mac recognises it? I have tried vuescan, but they don't even list the xerox models.
Thanks

did you install software for the scanner? you can tell if the computer is recognizing the device by going to the blue apple and then "about this mac". then click on more info. the scanner should be listed with your usb devices. if it is not recognized, then try a pmu reset. if you have a power pc mac mini, the instructions are here. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300574. if you have an intel mac mini, the instructions are here. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303446. let me know if that works.

  • Maxtor One Touch III not showing up on Mac OSX or Windows

    ok so i have this Maxtor one touch III external hard drive that i used to use with my XP computer a few years ago... its 500 GB. so i plug it in to my Mac and install the software and it doesn't show up on my desktop or my disk utility. although, it does show up in my system profiler. so, it didn't work for mac... then i went onto my parallels account that has windows 7 on it and it still doesn't show up. what can i do to fix this?

    Hi,
    all this, with the exception of the Maxtor software, should indicate a no-problem with that HD.
    Personally I have always avoided the provided software, since it is not needed for external HDs.
    If you have access to a Windows PC try connecting the HD there and see what comes up.
    And if you don't have valuable files on that HD, you might repartition it there as well.
    Could be a rare case of a 'dynamic disk' http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314343/en-us which is something that Macs can't handle.

  • Ipod touch 1st generation not showing up on mac mini G4 1,42

    Our children use a mac mini 1,42 (MacOs 10.4, latest revision) and our daughter syncs her iPod nano 6 with her itunes library (iTunes 9.x). I created a separate account for our son and tried to connect my old 1st gen touch to the mini for him. unfortunately the touch does not connect on the mac mini's USB port (no charging, nothing in System Profiler, evidently no syncing). The nano does. Both ipods connect to my Macbook Black (2007 2,16 GHz Intel, MacOs 10.6.7, iTunes 10), as do our iPhones …
    … any ideas, not enough current on the minime?
    Best
    Michael

    I am amazed, that after reinstalling iTunes 9.2.1 on MacOS 10.4 after removing the kernel extension and the package receipt everything works as expected.
    before reinstalling, the iPod touch neither did load, nor showed up in System Profiler.
    So – problem solved, back to normal …
    many thanks

    It doesn't quite work that way. Transfer your music from the old computer to the new one. Then, sync the iPod.

  • My Ipod Touch is not recognised in itunes or my computer but still charges, Please help

    My Ipod Touch is not recognised in itunes or my computer but still charges when connected via USB Please help

    Did plugging it into another USB port do any good? Make sure it is a USB port on the back of your PC and not via a USB hub or one on the front as they sometimes do not output enough power for the iPod to properly communicate with your PC.
    Do you have another 30 pin dock connector cable around you use to try and rule out a faulty cable? 
    Did you try a hard reset of the device with it still connected to your PC?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    With the article above were you able to verify that the Apple Mobile Device Service was installing and running on your system?
    Lastly, try plugging it into a different PC to see if it is recognized there.  It can help narrow down whether it is an issue with the iPod or with your PC.

    Does it charge?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try another cable
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

    Scanning this way is much faster than using my printer but having to save each individually defeats the purpose.

  • Ipod nano is not recognised on my mac

    I have a Mac and an ipod and a nano and have previously sync both -no problem. Now the nano is not recognised by the mac. it show 'do not disconnect' and charges ok but doesn't appear on the source list so i can't restore or sync. I've tried resetting, restarting and downloading latest version of itunes...nothing working

    Just had the same problem. Solved it by doing a reset - Turn on the iPod, toggle the hold switch on and off, then press and hold the menu & select buttons simultaneously until the Apple icon appears. (I had to let go after 10+ seconds and press the select button again to make the logo appear.) I hit select once more to clear the logo and get to the main menu, then plugged it in to my computer. Everything's running well again, and the reset did not in any way affect the music files already stored in my iPod.

  • My external hard drive is not recognised on my mac book pro

    my external hard drive is not recognised on my mac book pro

    Hello all -
    similar situation.  Unplugged external hard drive and all to take the laptop on a trip.  On return, I plugged everything back in and keep getting this message:
    Time Machine couldn’t complete the backup to “Iomega_Ext_Drive”.
    Files can’t be copied onto the backup disk because it appears to be read-only.
    You may need to repair or reformat the disk using Disk Utility. If the disk can’t be repaired, you must use a different disk for backups. Open Time Machine preferences to select a different backup disk.
    open time machine preferences.   -
    I tried this and tried "repair" but that didn't work and I still get this message.  Any advice?  thanks

  • Help! limewire will not work on my Mac mini 10.4.11 now that i cleaned it

    Help! LimeWire will not work on my Mac mini 10.4.11 now that i cleaned it out and had to get the new LimeWire. It keeps asking for Java 1.6 but I'm having no luck. :O( LimeWire was the reason I bought a Mac!

    Very weird day in Firefoxland
    First on a Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11 I respond to an invitation to upgrade to Firefox 4 (like a lot of others). Long story short, I wind up losing the browser altogether -- including all bookmarks. Why? Because neither the Firefox homepage (or CNET downloads) makes it clear that 4.0 is for OS 10.5 only! Amazing!
    Then I try to register to post a reply in a thread that crits Firefox for not making this System Requirements info upfront clear. But the Register page I’m taken to (https://support.mozilla.com/bs/users/register) is in SERBO-CROATIAN!!
    Then I try to log into Chat a couple of times and when it’s not CLOSED its a long line waiting and THEN it closes.
    WOW!! Are the wheels off the wagon here or what!?!

  • Idvd was not included with my mac mini how do I burn movies?

    dvd was not included with my mac mini how do I burn movies?

    It is now confirmed that iDVD and iWeb have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    In addition the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on.
    HOWEVER, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those copies still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD.
    You can purchase the iLife 11 boxed disk at the online Apple Store while supplies last or possible at Amazon.com or eBay.com.
    Happy New Year

  • My Apple blue tooth keyboard will not pair with my mac mini

    My Apple wireless keyboard was paired with my Mac Mini. It is no longer paired. I have put in new Batteries. I have pressed the button on the top right hand section of the keyboard, the green led lights up briefly. The Blue Tooth set up assistant appears on screen and searches for the keyboard. I has brifly seen it but does not make a connection. The Magic moose is doing the same thing.

    Hi Darrell,
    If your Apple Bluetooth and keyboard are not paring to your Mac Mini, then take a look at the article below to walk you through some general troubleshooting to get it to pair and start working again. If you have not done so already, try looking form anything could be causing interference like cordless phones as well and thing metal between the keyboard and the Mac Mini.
