I have an Intel iMac, with 10.5 (Leopard) and have run into all sorts of problems. Printers not working, scanners not working, etc. I bought new printers and a flat bed scanner, but expected Nikon to come out with an update for Cool Scan. I called Nikon, which promised one for this month.

Meanwhile, I tried Coolscan on my G5 (nonIntel) laptop. It won't work with Adobe CS3 (plug in won't load) and I get an error message when I try CoolScan alone. As a stop gap I bought ScanVue, which works okay, although the architecture is quite different.

In general, I'm finding with all new software and hardware there are signicant problems, with each company blaming the others (Apple, Abobe, Nikon). It's the customer, though, who gets stuck and who loses out.

Is anyone having problems with Nikon scanners--I have a Coolscan V Ed--and Adobe

CS3 and/or Leopard (OS X 10.5) on a Mac??

I called Nikon but am being told there may be a fix in 90 days but are not sure,

inasmuch as Nikon my be suspending scanner support in this digital world. As a

Nikon user since 1955, I'm more than a little disturbed by this.
