20 Most Recent Canon CanoScan LiDE 60 Flatbed Scanner Questions & Answers

I also had this problem and scoured ALL the apple forums to no avail.Then I discovered what my problem was. I run parallels on my mac and it had nabbed my scanner as one of its USB devices! All I had to do was uncheck this device for use in the windows Virtual machine and it came back to mac. The strange thing was, I didn't use or install the scanner in the windows environment, yet parallels stole it from the macOS side.If you have Parallels installed, I wonder how many other problems with USB connected devices could be solved by visiting it first?

Go to Canon's website. They should have a site for Software downloads. Trusting they do, when you go to download it and it asks you if you want to Run it or Save it, you'll want to save it. Then burn the software onto a CD.

Hi. If the scanner is not working through 'Image Capture' or though it's own Canon software, then the best option is to download VueScan from Hamrick Software.He keeps it updated more frequently that the manufacturers do.

Hello.

Give this a try (found online):

Download Irfanview:

http://download.cnet.com/IrfanView/3000-2192_4-10021962.html

Open the main app "i_view32.exe"

With the scanner hooked up, click onto the "file" (tab)

Click "Select TWAIN Source .." and select your scanner in the source box (if it is listed, the driver is functioning)

Click file (tab) then "Acquire"


Hope this helps.

Do you know what operating system you're on?which program you use for scan/copy ?

To get the scanner to work you will need to un install it then go to the link below and download the software from the canon website. The disk that came with the scanner does not have the correct windows 7 software on it. Once you click on the link below you will need to click on Drivers / software. Once there click on the correct operating system that you have.

Good Luck

It's hard to say what is causing this but as somewhere to start, make sure you are not scanning in colour or Greyscale. OCR works best on B&W at a failry high resolution. (600dpi)

It can happen from time to time. Twain an industry standard scanner application. You need to re-install your scanner sofware. Make sure you do it with your scanner disconnected from your computer, and powered off. Your pc should tell you you when the software is installed, and tell you the scanner is not present. That is when you re-connect it and switch it on.

Hello there.

Please click here for the drivers for your canonscan. Making sure to choose the version of Windows you have, from the 'Select OS' box.

Underneath the drivers is the software available for your scanner.

Hope this helps

Go to the following URL: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=SupportDetailTabAct&fcategoryid=235&modelid=11446#DownloadDetailAct

Then select your OS.The drivers and software for Win7 32 bit and Win7 64 bit different. The Win7 64 bit drivers are digitally signed; the 32 bit version doesn't need the same level of security certificates (a Microsoft issue).

I hope this helps.

You must reinstall the device after first uninstalling it through Control Panel->Add Remove Programs. Reboot the PC and then reinstall the drivers with the device disconnected. Actually follow the procedure in the links below:
