Can you use a neat scanner and get recipes directly into mastercook

Nope. Sorry. I wish they would add a simple OCR feature to the program for just that purpose, but it hasn't happened yet.

It actually can. However you need to acquire a Software Development Kit (SDK) compatible with this scanner (there are many out there) and then you can create your own custom applications.

I have not, but you can. It comes with some recipes, and I believe it even has some frozen yogurt recipes.

No. The application doesn't have scanning capabilities. You can search the item and view more information on the nutritional facts

I don't really remember how I did it, but I am using it by scanning directly to our program. I think there should be the small manual book that you can scan some UPC to control how you use this handheld either scanning directly or storing inside itself. Try and let me know.

Yes, you can. It works the same in versions 5-14. Open your cookbook. Select Print/Publish Cookbook from the File menu. In the Print window that appears in the lower left add a checkmark to include Category Index. Remove the checkmark to include Recipes. Now print.

No. You can make up your own recipes. In face, the item comes with recipes you can use.

Yes, you can enter your own recipes, and get nutritional analysis, as long as MC8 has the nutritional information on the ingredients you enter. IF you enter something that ISN'T in the info banks, it will say so, and give you the option to provide that information, IF you have it.

Yes. I just did it. You go to the recipe list. Right click on the recipe and a drop-down menu will appear. You can then click on "copy recipe to another chapter". I have a chapter labeled Biscotti. I copied one of the recipes to the chapter labeled Cookies. It now appears in both chapters. It is so easy. If you want, on the drop-down menu is also the option to "move" a recipe to another chapter. You will love this software. It is so user-friendly. Hope this helps.

Yes indeed, you can put any recipe you want in it. I had alot already saved on my computer (I too keep my recipes electronically). I just copied the recipes and pasted into the recipe reader. You can add your own picture or one from the internet (with the URL). I absolutely love mine. Because it is WiFi, after you add them, you just have the reader update from the internet. You can share your recipes with others or keep them private (you pick the setting after adding the recipe). You make your own cookbooks and can put the recipes into those catagories, so easy. If you daughter gets one I hope she enjoys it as much as I do. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Yes indeed, you can put any recipe you want in it.

There is an Import function on the File menu. You select the file used by Master Cook, then choose a cookbook or create a new cookbook. The Help function gives details for different versions of Master Cook. Go to the Index tab and type "Import", then hit enter. Master Cook appears on the list of items to be imported.

No. The scanner doesn't have its own storage and needs to be connected to a computer via USB to work. If you want more portable scanning, try the Doxie Go, for example.

Yes you do, but you can come out with your own recipe mix. You can buy the mixes online too.

I had the worst time doing just you want to do with Master Cook until I had to make a file of my own and start all over again in WORD. Was a sad day as I had so many but it forced me to weed out things I didn't need anymore. This website might help you but I really don't know - good luck!!! http://www.mycookbook.com/index.asp?UserName=

I'm not familiar with the neat scanner, I do not use quickbooks, and I also do not use Windows 8. If you can upload PDFs to quickbooks then you should be able to upload PDFs scanned by this scanner. I used this scanner with Windows XP. Regarding using it on Windows 8, I would go onto the Fujitsu website to see if they say if the drivers they have for this scanner work with WIndows 8.

No it does not. Also you much add all recipes from an actual computer. it does not have the technology to search the internet for new recipes, even though it requires wireless internet.

I had the same problem. They said go into REG EDIT and delete anything in the registry to do with Neat. That worked as far as installing the program so I could open it on my screen. But the scanner itself hasn't worked yet. It's telling me no drivers loaded. That's where I am right now. I've been messing with this for almost a week now! I really wanted this...was all excited to ditch tons of paper. Now I'm pretty much ready to give up and return it.
