ScanWizard 5 shuts down when I try to start scanner

The message you are getting is not the actual problem. Clearly your PC has enough memory to do scanning, are you sure medion scanner is compatible with 64bit OS? could you try this on a 32bit machine?

The last Mac OS X version officially supported by that scanner is Mac OS 10.4 Tiger. You *MAY* be able to get it to work under Mac OS 10.5 Leopard or 10.6 Snow Leopard but otherwise there is NO way to get it to work with 10.7, 10.8 or 10.9 since these are Intel only platforms (the scanner software is PowerPC PPC.) Your only option is to run a Windows XP virtual machine inside your Mac and to it that way. I can assist you with that if you like.

Hi,
Shortly after the world started upgrading to Snow Leopard, reports began emerging that many Hewlett-Packard printers were incompatible with the upgrade. So, you can wait till you get the updated driver which is compatible with Mac Snow leopard.
Good Luck!

Hi ,

• Scanner models released after 2007 will be compatible unless otherwise noted.
• For scanners missing from the list above, if it was released prior to 2007, then it will not be supported in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.

Need to refer you to my brother-in-law. Robert. 435-770-0637.

Forget about the Minolta software. It's buggy at best with OS X. Use VueScan instead. A free trial is available so you can test it before you commit to buying it.

Hi, my problem is not desolved, because HP has not yet, but will soon the driver for Apple Leopard installing!
so I must wait a bit! Before under the Tiger program, my Scanner did work well!

PS: New Program, new Problems! (so far only the Scanner I have!)

This is a funny problem. Try & locate SCanwizard 5 files and delete them. Complete the registry deletion as suggested. Run scandisk. Install and uninstall Scanwizard 5.

Check for latest drivers Maybe your Mac O/S does not like it or a recent up date conflicts
