When saving the scanned files, only a few go to the directory or file i have specified, the others go somewhere else. Why does this change. If I am scanning 30 slides, 3 end up where I told them to go, the other 27 somewhere else.
Why does this change, and how can i fix it.

Re:
The files are generally either under a directory under the Program Directory in My Programs directory. OR Under a Directory in My Documents. As a soloution what about doing a "Search" for them... when you find them take note of where they are stored for future reference. I use this below program to find stuff it is IMHO better than M$ search.

When saving a file, note the directory when naming the file.
Do a search for the file if you know the name to see which
directory it went into. If you don't specify where you want the file stored it will into the last directory you were working in.
Picasa saves all the files to the hard drive. You can have many locations for pictures. It is possible the pictures are stored in a directory that is not being scanned continuously by Picasa. Since the files are on the hard drive, even the Picasa data for edits to the pictures are saved to the hard drive. So you could un-install the program and not lose the picture. You might lose the setup for what directories the program looks at. You can see the folders it uses to make the on screen thumbnails. Go to TOOLS -> FOLDER MANAGER. This is where you define the folders for Picasa.
If you imported the pictures from a camera using the import tool, the directory you specified is where the pictures are now. You also had the option to delete imported pictures, or not. If you try to IMPORT again from the main screen, look to the bottom left for the IMPORT TO: drop down and see where it is defaulting. Make sure that directory is being scanned in the folder manager.
Post again if this didn't help and add more information. As to where you were importing from and to. If the pictures still exist on the source, etc.
Don't know if you have tried this, but it might help.

Had this same problem and just fixed it. You need to actually change the button settings in Navigator. Open MP navigator and choose One-Click, then click Button Settings. You can choose a new save destination from here. Even though you are using the software instead of the button on the device, it works.
Try saving the file on your desktop first, and see if it converts and saves correctly. Next, make sure that your external harddrive is detected correctly and visible under My Computer.
You could also try reinstalling the software and drivers. Try this first and let me know how it goes..
In the File Save Settings window, specify the file folder in which you want to save your scanned image. Click the Documents or Pictures radio button, or the My Documents or My Pictures radio button.
Select other then click on browse and locate the folder you created..
Update me if you have question
If it resolve your issue pls dnt forget to rate it as fixya. thanks!!
When you see the File Save Settings window, you need to select the location, name, and format of the scanned image file you want to save.
In the File Save Settings window, specify the file folder in which you want to save your scanned image. Click the My Documents or My Pictures radio button (Windows XP or earlier versions), or the Documents or Pictures radio button (Windows Vista or Mac OS X).
If you want to select another folder, click Other, then click Browse (Windows) or Choose (Mac OS X) and select the folder. If you want to save your image on the desktop, simply click Other.
Specify a file name prefix with an alphanumeric character string. A 3-digit number is automatically added to the file name, but you can change the Start Number if you like. If you are scanning multiple images at once, each image will receive a different 3-digit number.
Select a file format. Depending on the format, the Options button may be available for making detailed settings.
The check boxes at the bottom of the window give you these options:
Overwrite any files with the same name: Select this option if you want to reuse the selected file name and location and overwrite previous files with the same names.
Show this dialog box before next scan: Select this option if you want the File Save Settings window to appear automatically before you scan in Home or Professional Mode. If you deselect it, you must click the File Save Settings button to open the window.
Open image folder after scanning: Select this option if you want Windows Explorer or the Macintosh Finder to automatically open to the folder where your scanned image is saved when Epson Scan finishes scanning.
6. Do one of the following, depending on the currently selected scan mode:
Home or Professional Mode: Click OK. Epson Scan starts scanning.
Full Auto Mode: Click OK, click OK again, then click Scan. Epson Scan starts scanning.
The scanned image is saved in the file and location you chose.
