[QUOTE="Clairejr, post: 769289, member: 29819"] Two things. First, you don't need Photoshop or Photoshop Elements to use Canon software. Here's the link to the software from Canon for the Lide 20: [url=http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=SupportDetailTabAct&fcategoryid=235&modelid=6624#DownloadDetailAct]Photo Scanners - USB Flatbed Scanner - CanoScan LiDE 20 - Canon USA Consumer Products[/url] Read the instructions carefully. If I remember correctly, you have to install the Toolbox software first. I have a very old Canoscan (pre-Lide 20, I think) and the software works fine with both Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5. If your son wants more powerful software for the scanner, try VueScan. [url=http://www.hamrick.com/]VueScan Scanning Software[/url] I checked and VueScan is compatible with the Canoscan Lide 20.
