SOURCE: scanner will not work since downloaded explorer 8

Try the scanner on another USB port first. IE8 should have nothing to do with your scanner. It is possible that your drivers got corrupted. Right click MY COMPUTER, go to PROPERTIES, then click on DEVICE MANAGER. look for any yellow exclamation or question marks. If there click on it and look at the drivers. There are options to ROLL BACK, UPDATE, UNINSTALL. If drivers are needed use your install disk or go to the Canon site and download the drivers and re-install them. Worst case scenario, connect the scanner to another computer to see if there is still a problem. If so, it is the scanner not IE8 or the computer.
Good luck and I hope this helps.

SOURCE: Epson 2450 Perfection Photo Scanner

The Epson film holders hold the film 1 mm (.039") above the glass scanning window. You could cut and glue 1 mm plastic sheets to make your own holder if you can't get the originals from Epson. I'm making one now that will hold more than a single frame of 120 film, which is all the original Epson holder would take.

SOURCE: I discovered that the material

Hello
You just try it with any other computer running on Vista or XP. Connect your device through that system and download the software. Some electronic devices like blue ray player, have internal LAN card fitted with it. If your device is such a type, you can download the software directly connecting it to an external broadband modem. We have got the software like that for a sony Blue Ray dvd. But yours have no video output device fitted inside to monitor the function. So you must connect it to an other computer itself to get the software downloaded. If it can't possible contact the manufacturer for support. Sometimes they may have the software on CD format. If so you can do thing very easy.

SOURCE: OVT Scanner won't run with Windows 7. Vupoint

We suffered this initially on a new laptop with Windows 7. I can't tell if the driver on the Vupoint website has been updated, or is the old XP/Vista driver, but we installed this (1/2011). In Picasa or the Photoimpressions software which comes with the scanner, we were then only able to acquire solid black images. However, when we tried all of the USB ports on the computer, we found that one of them (a USB2 rather than USB1 port) was able to function like normal. We suspect there is a funny issue with the amount of power going to the scanner from different USB ports, and maybe this interacts with the driver in some way.

Fission Film Strip Scanner. It won't connect to Desktop

Question edited for clarity.

Reinstall the drivers and software. A Windows Update has probably overwritten or deleted them

I have a tevion film strip scanner suitable for software Windows XP and Vista but my new laptop is Windows 7 and now it won't work. Can I download the software to use the scanner with my new l

Most things that worked fine with Windows XP and or Vista, can fail with Windows 7 and 8, because the factory that made the hardware in the first place does not ask for certification with Microsoft for their old Hardware. They only spend time and money to get their new hardware certified on the new operating systems.
So if you manage to get any driver, just test it. The software that came with your scanner should work. (At least in the XP compatible mode)
The next thing you can try is to download any free ware scanner software. Perhaps you can get a trail version of SilverFast, for your scanner. As soon as you have to pay for the software, think of buying a new scanner, because sometimes a Windows 7 or 8 compatible film scanner is cheaper than the software.

The SilverFast software starts at 59 dollar, (not even sure they have a compatible package for your scanner) My pro version costs already 300. But perhaps you can download a trail version there to see if it works for you. (Perhaps if you remove the software or stop using when you have to pay for it, the driver keeps working??)

How do i scan film on my scanner

You should be able to download the manual.

http://consumer.usa.canon.com/ir/controller?act=DownloadDetailAct&fcategoryid=351&modelid=10242

To scan film, you'll need to first remove the white cover on the underside of the scanner lid. That is where the backlight is. Also, you must be using the ScanGear driver and NOT the WIA driver. The WIA driver does not support film scanning. Locate your film guides. These are the templates that will hold the film and are placed on the scanner glass to be scanned. Lastly, there should be a Select Source option in the scanner driver that allows you to select Film as the source.

Hope this helps.

Connecting an older Minolta Dimage Elite film scanner to a newer computer running Windows Vista

Paul you might want to see if VueScan http://www.hamrick.com/ supports this particular scanner. It often allows older scanners to work on newer computers as it bypasses the Twain drivers.
