RE: OS 11 --> Weird problem

2023-01-30 Thread jcoyle
I fired up the Epson software after trying Henk's suggestion, and while it 
allowed me to select Professional mode, I never got to
see a 'Scan' button!  So I fired up VueScan 64, Version 6497 from April 2022, 
and it immediately offered me the latest upgrade.
Installed it, and  - Lo and Behold! After working out the interface, I am 
cheerfully scanning some Kodachrome 64.
I do find you need to thoroughly understand the way all the parameters need to 
be set under the VueScan interface, but it does work
well under W11.

Thanks for the help!

John, I remember the trouble I had installing my Epson V500 under W10. The 
trick was to install the software from the CD and right
click on the file escndv.exe  in the epson folder under program files (x86). 
There you can change compatibility mode to an earlier
windows version. I choose Vista at the time and the professional Epson mode has 
been working fine. My worries are whether this trick
will also work under W11.
You will have to wait forever for a new driver and software  from Epson for 
this old model scanner.

Have you powered it off and then back on again? (To force any Mac to

It was a mistake.

The main problem is that clicking in the menu bar now does nothing. Do

I want to quit Mail after finishing this message? Tough luck. Do I want to

Heya Rick, 

Ah, good! I'm glad they helped you sort it out. 
A bad update/install-over … It's rare but it does happen. 

I just couldn't figure out what OS you were updating and to what; macOS Ventura 
is v13.x (I'm on macOS Ventura v13.2 at present with a 2018-2019 Mac mini 
i7-six core).

Godfrey,

Thanks for replying!

Problem solved in a long call with Apple support. It seems something mutated in 
the OS, so we re-installed it.

It’s an M1 Mac mini, running Ventura. The old Mac mini turned belly-up a couple 
of months ago.

What computer, what OS?  Is it Windows 10 to Windows 11? or macOS 10.15 
(Catalina) to macOS 11 (Big Sur)? If an Apple Mac, what machine? 

Have you powered it off and then back on again? (To force any Mac to power off 
if the menu isn't working, just hold down the power button for about 10 seconds 
or so.)

OS 11 --> Weird problem

2023-01-28 Thread Rick Womer
I wonder why now, but I upgraded this computer from OS 10 to 11 yesterday.

It was a mistake.

The main problem is that clicking in the menu bar now does nothing. Do I want 
to quit Mail after finishing this message? Tough luck. Do I want to use any of 
the other menu bar functions? Too bad.

Anyone having a similar problem? Anyone have a fix?
