jerryharwood Posted August 10, 2011 Share #21 Posted August 10, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Bo; I have an old Epson 4490 scanner, which I use only for 120 scanning, via Vuescan. I found the best way to scan a full strip (three square negs/ trannies was to dump the plastic holder. I went to the local glass works, and had them make me a 4mm armour glass strip X2, the correct measurements of the strip of negs. Then I place the strip between the two srips of glass- and you get a perfect scan, without any Newton rings ! believe me it works. Hope this helps.

andybarton Posted August 10, 2011 Share #22 Posted August 10, 2011 Just for some balance, the only problem that I have had with Lion (apart from some of what I consider to be retrograde iconography in the Finder) is that one of my USB external hard-drives unmounts itself for no reason. This might happen once per session. No data is lost and it might just be a warning that the HD is about to go TU. I have backed up the data to a different external FW drive. I don't recall this happening under SL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I delete a file from it I get a dialogue box telling me that the drive doesn't support the trashcan and do I want to delete the files directly.

andybarton Posted August 10, 2011 Share #24 Posted August 10, 2011 I've not had that, but I use Western Digital FW drives. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted August 10, 2011 Share #25 Posted August 10, 2011 All the other dives are ok - and I have Firewire and USB. I suspect it's something to do with the firmware in the Lacie drive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lykaman Posted August 10, 2011 Share #26 Posted August 10, 2011 Hi, I use Seagate/Toshiba/WD external HD's - all continuously connected. Lion has not (as yet) given me any issues on this front. Even the recent HP update worked flawlessly. With SL I had one WD EHD that would continuously unmount itself..the solution-I now use it as an auxiliary backup on my MBooks...
