[QUOTE="Sawday, post: 1692371, member: 22882"] Thanks Chas, but I'm not in a position to install El Capitan, test the software and then reinstall Mavricks if tests show the software doesn't work. The scanner has a number of buttons for direct functions (auto, copy, email, various pdf options). These are not handled by Image Capture nor Vuescan. Canon have stated (but then rescinded) that these buttons would continue to work but also stated that their IJ Scan utility would replicate these functions. I cannot get this later software to work at all, hence my post. Image Capture gives only very basic functionality which is great for a simple copy but not the functionality of my current Canon software eg Gutter shadow correction (for copying books), Fare 3 (dust and scratch removal) nor colour and grain correction. I'm aware that Vuescan offers some of these functions but that's an extra cost option which would be redundant if the Canon software will continue to work under El Capitan. Meanwhile, as these functions work now with my present set up and as I cannot risk losing them, even for a short time I'm seeking a definitive answer from users themselves. [/QUOTE]
