CardScanner and Windows 7: Has anyone successfully done this?

This is confusing. The company website says it doesn't work with 64-bit systems - does that mean Windows 7? Why don't they just tell us what it does or does not work with - we aren't all computer people.

Look at: http://scansnapcommunity.com/tips-tricks/579-get-the-basics-on-business-card-scanning/?placement=&gclid=CJTJk9GA67wCFQWTfgodwSsAgw&utm_medium=cpc&WT.term=cardminder&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=Community&WT.medium=cpc&WT.campaign=Community&WT.srch=1&WT.srch=1&WT.content=text&type=Phrase&WT.source=google&network=g&adpos=1t1&WT.mc_id=Community&utm_term=cardminder&cshift_ck=50ca03e6-5755-4f51-b9be-e8634d481089csLy3wQPhS It appears you export to a .csv file. Then import the file to your newly installed Cardminder program on Win 7

Yes, it does work with Windows 8. I did not have any problems. However, I was very disappointed with its ability to read business cards accurately. I spent considerable time correcting the inaccuracies. I ended up purchasing a ScanSnap S1300i. It is much more accurate - not perfect but more accurate than the World Card Pro. Plus the S1300i is more versatile in terms of having the ability to scan both side of business cards and scanning paperwork. Hope this helps.

Cannot answer, because I never installed the card on windows 7. It definitely does not work with Windows 8.

The device scans directly to a SanDisk. I have an 8GB disk in mine. To move the pictures to your computer you can either move the SanDisk into a card reader slot on your computer, or you can hook up a USB cable between the scanner and the computer and access the files that way. There really is no software to run so the answer is yes, you can use it to move pictures to a Windows 7 PC. I have Windows 7 on my laptop which has a built in card reader.

My Printmaster Gold 17 would not work with Windows 8, so I am using it on another computer with Windows XP. I ordered Platinum for my Windows 8 computer and I am very unhappy with it. Most cards are without text.

The scanner works OK on Windows 7. Unfortunately the software does not. Scansnap Organizer is extremely slow and freezes up often. When trying to move a newly scanned document to another folder within SS Organizer it just stops and freezes for as long as three minutes before completing the move; sometimes it never does move the doc and I have to use End Process in the task manager to close it. I'm (trying to) running a Scansnap S300 on Windows 7 Home Premium, latest software, firmware, and drivers.I'm looking to replace it now.Jim

I don't think so because I searched for scanners that worked with Windows 7 especially. I do recall the instructions mentioned one could get an app that would enable it for Windows 8. Instead of that hassle, just search Amazon for scanners Windows 8 compatible.

There's no software that you require. It does an offline scan into the card and later you transport the files into the system. So, it doesn't matter what OS you are using. Hope that helps ! Happy New Year!

I'm glad J. Redding was able to answer it! I am still on 64-bit Windows 7 Professional (it works well with that, if anyone is interested).

I have windows 7, but this scanner uses an SD card. picture scans directly to the sd card. so if your computer takes an SD card, I would say its compatible.

Romona, my requirements were identical to yours although my Windows7 is partitioned on a MacBook Pro. And the Card Reader does indeed work with Windows 7 (and Mac) and it does work with smartmedia cards. However, there can be a challenge with 'recovering' the data from the smartmedia cards which MAY be corrupted. My web search discovered a FREE program, EaseUS, that can recover from a corrupted file...and it does works with both MAC or Windows. Good luck. I hope this helps

I purchased four or five of these, from various manufacturers and memory sizes, over a couple of months last year and found none that work with Windows versions past XP. I had one serving a third monitor on a GX620, but after our IT installed Win7, the OS never saw the card.

As I mentioned in my comment, under Win7 it did work, but it froze the computer for over 20 minutes for a single picture. I think the driver is to blame. If I left it and went to lunch, the quality of the scan was not bad. I will probably buy the standalone model that dumps the pic into an SD card.Also, keep in mind that it's been a few months, so they may have updated the drivers. However, their customer service is absolutely non existent.Hope it helps.

Yes - it can. BTW - if you're buying a used scanner, be aware of the lack of support for Windows 7. With XP it works well.

I found I had to format the card in the register. When I first formatted it on my PC neither the register or the program would recognize it.

Sure works fine. The multi card reader side is USB2 so no drivers needed. I have win 7 x64 Ult.
