How do I save the scanned photo on my Apple MacBook Pro? Photo Scanner/ Save/ Enter/ hourglass appears but can't find the photos in a file?

I think I saved them to the memory card and then dragged them onto the Macbook HD. seems to me that there was a cable that was supposed to let you go directly from the scanner to your laptop but it only worked if you had a PC.

If you don't already have one, get a memory card. Insert the memory card into the Cobra and scan your photos to the memory card. You can then copy the photos from the memory card. Another advantage of using the memory card is that you can view the pictures on other devices, like a photo frame, and view them directly without copying them anywhere. Good luck.

I scanned hundreds of school work documents on my iMac G5 PowerPC - OSX Leopard in 2009 and I believe I used some online service to convert everything from image to pdf. Because I wanted my school documents specifically stored as PDF; but I guess I should have kept jpg for the google automatic photo backup.

Absolutely-I have a Mac. It comes with a memory card, I just download the pictures from there.

I have this device and use Mac OS Mountain Lion. The scanning feature does work as long as you install the driver (available on their website). The only feature the Mac does not allow for is the OCR feature.

Being a flatbed, that's going to take a lot of time; open the cover, line up the photo, close the cover, scan, crop, save. There are some scanners which have "feeders" that will handle this for you, but you need to keep an eye on them or your photos might get caught and damaged.

I don't have a MacBook. It did not work with my computer. Because every floppy disc is numbered exactly the same. Therefore you would have to rename every picture, otherwise the next disc would overwrite old pics with the same number.

I think the camera surely has a format card choice in the menu? Personally I plug the card into my Mac laptop, iPhoto takes in all the picts, asks me if I want to delete and I say yes. This would be true via adapter into iPad, etc. also...

I never used any included software with it... the scanner saves your pictures on an SD memory card, so I just plug that into the SD slot in my mac and import my pictures into iPhoto (and Aperture) to edit them there.

That's strange. I'm on Snow Leopard, and the MFC-7840W scanned just fine into Photoshop.

The way i use it is I remove the Sandisc from the camera, plug it in the Mac, download the pics, erase from the disc and put back in the camera. Actually i have a couple of discs so when i go to check the camera I just swap discs. The Mac has a slot in the back to plug in the Sandisc, has worked very well for me. Very pleased with the camera. Hope this helps.

Hi Mickey,The information, such as GPS, date & time, etc, are store in the EXIF data within the image. If you're using a Mac, getting this info is fairly easy. Within Preview, go to "Tools->Show inspector" and then look at the EXIF tab. Lightroom can also read EXIF data.s

Not that I know about, but if you have a Mac you can use "image capture" to scan. It comes with the OS. Maybe Windows has something similar.

download the canon easy print photo app and it works like a dream. Just wish I could say the same for getting to work on Wifi with my Macbook Pro

I have scanned several photos and they come out very well. I think the max resolution is 600DPI which is probably about as good as the quality of the photograph itself. The larger the photo the clearer the scan will be. I found the saving the pictures as a .pdf seem to give you a little better quality than a .jpg and also works well if you are using a MAC.

Hi there. This scanner saves in the following formats: BMP, JPEG, JPEG2000, Multi-page TIFF, PDF, PNG, Single-Page TIFF, and XPS. Enjoy!

I'm also seeking more photo sleeves for scanning. I have the iConvert and it also came with only one sleeve which has scratches from scanning old, thicker photos.

Hi! Happy Mac user here - and YES - you can connect it to your Mac via USB. If you want to use the USB port to power the scanner (totally do-able!) then close iPhoto while you scan. If your settings are set to auto-recognize any camera connected, iPhoto will attempt to access the scanner, however you can't use it "live" (with the Mac as a preview screen) but it makes importing quick and easy from the SD card.
