Thank you!
I copied the folder as you indicated, but anyway I had all the
permissions...
My HP director in the dock looks different from yours, I can choose
"scan document" there. Then when I do that, I can choose the programm
with which I want to open the scanned document. I choose either Word,
Textedit or AppleWorks. Then it still says "unable to resolve file
alias". If I choose "Tiff in AppleWorks" it works, but that is not what
I want, because it gives me a picture, not a text document.
But when I start ReadIris first and then scan, I cannot choose the
application with which I would like to open the scanned document,because
the option is grayed out...
Thinking of selling this thing an getting a better one, but what?
